On November 5, 2021, Skipperooo posted a 2nd community post explaining how over 1,600 views were deleted from his channel on November 4th. Skipperooo also said "The largest single day view drop now shows on my channel getting over 2,400 views on Wednesday to a mere 178 on Thursday. It really hurts my channel analytic graph and I am now considering replacing my outro that I have had since 37k views." It is unknown if this was part of the deletion, but per the post by Skipperooo, there were three subscribers who "unsubscribed" from the channel just after the mass view deletion occurred.

On November 8, 2021, Skipperooo posted a 3rd community post that contained a screenshot showing that thousands of views from October 28 and 29 were deleted from his channel.
