'''Sea''' ('''planckLength''' in-game, '''SEA''' on YouTube, formerly known as '''Sea1997''') was a popular British YouTuber and former ''Geometry Dash'' player, known for his content surrounding ''Geometry Dash''<nowiki/>'s lore and community. His videos received acclaim for their relative professionalism and depth, with some of the most successful series on his channel being ''The Legends Series'', ''Maps from Hell Series'' and ''GD Theories''. Criticism was primarily targeted towards his sometimes unprofessional and pessimistic attitude, especially towards other players (highlighted by his diss track about [[Cyrillic]] and participation in one about [[ToshDeluxe]]), and the decline in the quality of his ''Geometry Dash''-related content. While not a frequent player or level creator, Sea kept in touch with the community thanks to his numerous videos and his own ''Geometry Dash'' 'news show' called ''G-News''.

On March 20, 2019, Sea announced that he would quit ''Geometry Dash'' and content creation surrounding it,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orhBWS_u2p0</ref> and would begin to unlist existing videos about the game and its community. Among reasons cited for this decision, Sea noted that his aforementioned content on outer space was much more rewarding personally and on the platform and that he had gained perspective by temporarily shutting himself off from the mishaps of the ''Geometry Dash'' community. However, he will still occasionally be commenting on ''Geometry Dash'' videos from time to time, such as [[Riot]]'s completion of [[Athanatos]].

Sea's playlist containing his unlisted videos about Geometry Dash currently has 51 of the 221 videos privated, with most of them caused by YouTube's 2021 unlisted videos purge, where any unlisted video that was uploaded before 2017 would automatically become privated. There is currently only one surviving video before 2017, which is the Cyclic video of the Legends Series. Many of the videos are considered lost, with either no archive on The Wayback Machine, or an archive with the actual video missing.

Template:GoodpageTemplate:Infobox PlayerSea (planckLength in-game, SEA on YouTube, formerly known as Sea1997) was a popular British YouTuber and former Geometry Dash player, known for his content surrounding Geometry Dash's lore and community. His videos received acclaim for their relative professionalism and depth, with some of the most successful series on his channel being The Legends Series, Maps from Hell Series and GD Theories. Criticism was primarily targeted towards his sometimes unprofessional and pessimistic attitude, especially towards other players (highlighted by his diss track about Cyrillic and participation in one about ToshDeluxe), and the decline in the quality of his Geometry Dash-related content. While not a frequent player or level creator, Sea kept in touch with the community thanks to his numerous videos and his own Geometry Dash 'news show' called G-News.
Aside from Geometry Dash, Sea also produces videos on topics such as outer space and conspiracies, most recently making an effort to push more videos unrelated to Geometry Dash.
On March 20, 2019, Sea announced that he would quit Geometry Dash and content creation surrounding it,[1] and would begin to unlist existing videos about the game and its community. Among reasons cited for this decision, Sea noted that his aforementioned content on outer space was much more rewarding personally and on the platform and that he had gained perspective by temporarily shutting himself from the mishaps of the Geometry Dash community. However, he will still occasionally be commenting on Geometry Dash videos from time to time, such as Riot's completion of Athanatos.
Sea's playlist containing his unlisted videos about Geometry Dash currently has 51 of the 221 videos privated, with most of them caused by YouTube's 2021 unlisted videos purge, where any unlisted video that was uploaded before 2017 would automatically become privated. There is currently only one surviving video before 2017, the Cyclic video of the Legends Series. Many videos were lost, with either no archive on The Wayback Machine or an archive with the actual video missing.
God Eater Videos: Around April/May 2017, knobbelboy released his second preview of God Eater. It quickly attracted 200,000 views but also prompted large footage-stealing controversy, causing tensions between Sea and Nexus.[2]

It led to Sea making a response video, saying that most of WHErwin’s arguments were arbitrary and clearing up what was factual and what was not.[5]
Sea vs Mohammed Ja'Kalem Al-Abdula: At some point in 2017, a user named 'Mohammed Ja'Kalem Al-Abdula' would start posting videos exposing Sea, which eventually caused him to quit.[6]
