Mark Edward Fischbach, better known as the YouTuber Markiplier, created an OnlyFans.
He said he would make the account two months ago if fans boosted his podcasts up the charts.
Immediately after the account went live, fans seemingly crashed the page by overloading it.
Mark Edward Fischbach, the gaming YouTuber known as Markiplier, launched an OnlyFans on Thursday that was so hyped by his fans that the website reportedly crashed upon release, according to Dexerto and fans on Reddit reacting in live-time.
On Thursday night and Friday, the Reddit page for fans of the influencer, r/Markiplier, was brimming with supporters shocked and amazed that he'd created an OnlyFans.
"I've never been so happy to get paid tomorrow as I am now," one user wrote.
Fischbach originally announced the OnlyFans in the middle of October, and said he would only create the page if subscribers boosted his two podcasts, Distractible and GO! My Favorite Sports Team, to the top of the podcast charts on Apple Music and Spotify.
His fans got the two podcasts to the top of the charts within days.
Fischbach announced the creation of the OnlyFans on Thursday with a video titled "here…," in which he said this would be the "first of three drops of tasteful nudes." He said the money earned from OnlyFans would be donated and split between the Cincinnati Children's Hospital and the World Food Program.
Fischbach's OnlyFans account — simply titled "Markiplier" — already has 23,000 likes, and all the top posts on the Markiplier Reddit page on Friday were related to the OnlyFans channel.
Fischbach has over 34 million subscribers, putting him in the top 100 for most subscribed-to channels and one of the most popular YouTube pages dedicated to gaming content, according to the data analytics website SocialBlade. The Los Angeles-based creator began making videos in 2012, and became renowned for his "Let's Play" commentator videos and "Five Nights at Freddy's" gameplay content.
Fischbach and OnlyFans did not respond to Insider's requests for comment.
