I look at their subscriber count on YT (3M+) and assume that they either have someone else to monitor/screen it or just ignore it entirely. You'd basically have to have their DMs to even show up on their radar. I don't think they'd ignore you out of spite, it's just that the signal to noise ratio on something like that is really poor (i.e. lots of noise).

Ah Sam. You are wise indeed. What you say makes perfect sense to me. What are "DMs"? Sorry for my ignorance.

I'm not so sure about wise, I just learn a lot of things the hard way. =)

It's kidspeak for Direct Messaging. I think there's a distinction in younger generations between instant messaging (IM) as we knew it and DM because things like Twitter and Instagram are both instant messaging but are broadcast to a public audience, whereas something like FB Messenger or your phone number would be private and therefore "direct" to the recipient. Messenger clients on a public page can get billions of hits from bots or spammers so they probably filter a lot of it out.

Thanks for the info. I am woefully lacking in my current understanding of all this stuff.
