"He said war was too important to be left to the generals. When he said that, 50 years ago, he might have been right. But today, war is too important to be left to politicians. They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought. I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids."
Now why don't you just take it easy, Group Captain, and please make me a drink of grain alcohol and rainwater, and help yourself to whatever you'd like.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Colonel... that Coca-Cola machine. I want you to shoot the lock off it. There may be some change in there.
Colonel "Bat" Guano: That's private property.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Colonel! Can you possibly imagine what is going to happen to you, your frame, outlook, way of life, and everything, when they learn that you have obstructed a telephone call to the President of the United States? Can you imagine? Shoot it off! Shoot! With a gun! That's what the bullets are for, you twit!
Colonel "Bat" Guano: Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: What?
Colonel "Bat" Guano: You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.
Bannon will be General Ripper, Pence will be the President, Sergie Lavrov (Russian foreign minister) will be the ambassador, Flynn will be Turgidson, Theresa May will be Mandrake, and Trump will be Major Kong.
I love being reminded of Dr. Strangelove's fanbase in random corners of the internet. No specifics for anonymity but I'm a close relative of the author of the book it was based on, and I'm glad his legacy lives on :)
Sellers trying to fight off his hand that's trying to choke him is one of my favourite things I've ever seen.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
It's a 1964 black comedy about nuclear war. Mad generals, wimpy politicians, cowboy bomber pilots and the only sane man aware of what's going on is powerless to do anything about it.
Don't let the fact that it's in black and white put you off; this film is funny as hell even 53 years later.

"Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb"
It doesn't have two titles either. That's the title.
I remember when I was a dipshit little kid, back when TV Guide was still a necessity, and saw the listing for that. I was like, "How the hell they gonna show two movies at the same time?"
Then my dad told me to stop being such an embarrassing failure and that it's just one movie. Now it's one of my favorite Kubrick films.
I still remember those G-Codes in the TV Guide that would auto-record certain programs. My uncle had a newer video player that accepted them. It felt like some super advanced technology at the time.
As much as everyone loves the closing lines, I always thought the last line of Buck was just as hilarious. Mr. President, we must not allow a mineshaft gap!

AFAIK he raised about $25k from people by that point. He got permabanned on twitch, disappeared and never gave the money back. A few years after, he made an apology video, got shit on and now is supposedly streaming at hitbox.

If it hadn't been...I don't know, his GIRLFRIEND (how), and just been a stranger with no knowledge of any conditions he may have, I would have hoped to expect it tbh. There are plenty of people who are in wheelchairs don't need them 24/7 and can move when unsupported, but long periods of time are hell and possibly hazardous for them.
Tbf for the viewers, it happened fairly fast and if you (think you) know that he is wheelchair bound then you'll probably just think you saw it wrong or something.

I knew a kid who was in a wheelchair in high school. Months into the school year there's a planned fire alarm, no big deal, everyone walks out of the school, stands out there for a while, walks back in when they tell us to. There's a gap between me and the wheelchair kid who's in front of me. His chair hit the door at the entrance of the school and fell apart. He stood up and put his chair back together, sat down and wheeled off. Myself and the kid next to me just looked at each other in awe.

A lot of people in wheel chairs aren't paralyzed. They can get up and walk around, it's just usually very painful or detrimental for them to do so for long periods of time.
she fakes cancer, some times passes and I dont remember how but it was found out she lied. she never admits to lying and god knows why but the pussywhipped twitch staff didnt punish her.
her viewers are mostly people that are unaware how terrible of a person she is and people that try griefing/exposing her
someone took a song and edited it so that partway through it has her saying she was diagnosed with cancer and then they uploaded it to youtube
doing song requests she plays his bait, hears herself saying she had cancer so she gets scared and skips the song and is so embarassed and nervous she opens up the floodgates of cringe.

Apparently, she had previously lied about having leukemia, so someone requested a song to be played on her stream that had been edited to include audio of her saying "I was diagnosed with leukemia", which made her mad because she wants people to forget that she ever said that.

Shoenice.
That poor bastard has done everything from drinking an entire bottle of everclear to drinking a bottle of glue to eating fucking sponges. The fact that he's alive is kind of amazing but he needs serious help.

Shoenice literally perm banned me from his Twitch chat because I was PogChamp ing. He said he "didn't care about our little faces." referring to emotes.
Someone donated $50 because he said something about doing a liquor slam. Shoenice then transferred the $50 from his Paypal on stream, to his bank account. Then ended stream.
I used to be subscribed, and watch shoenice for his humorous videos. Then I seen that he's actually just a piece of shit.
Correct. He's a junkie manipulating a bunch of kids into thinking what he does is "okay" under the guise of hip-new-challenges. Don't support him. He needs help.
No I disagree. He's a mentally challenged man, thank uploads videos of himself suffering from a disorder. He binges off the money he gets. He's still a pos though.

Wow, that's a lot of hate for a dude you have never met.
VICE did a video on him a while back, sounds like he's had a rough life and struggled with a lot of adversity. Easy to hate from the outside looking in.
I genuinely saw him commenting on videos asking for subs and view on his channel. He has over 500k subs and just can't let his writhing, tortured channel die. Just cut your losses and move on
zabuma ยท 26 points ยท Posted at 08:16:55 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
There's a documentary about him somewhere, I think it might be Vice who did it but can't remember... but it kind of goes into his life a little bit. I recommend watching it as it will show a lot of light on him.
He said he was in the military as a cook and helped feed some children somewhere over seas (it's been a while since ive seen it) and seeing the joy on the kids faces as they ate inspired him to try to help end world hunger. So he started doing what brought him to where he is now. He mentions an abusive childhood and being picked on so he used his strange "ability" to eat weird random stuff as a kid to get people to like him and not pick on him so much.
Granted you have no idea what's true or not, he is a major alcoholic and is probably delusional as hell and I bet most of what he says in the video is just random shit. He always used to have a buddy who would post videos of him blacked out and watching those were quite disturbing. He obviously has major issues and YouTube and his channel is most likely the only thing keeping him alive. He has said he quit drinking multiple times only to post a liquor chug a week or so later... he has videos of him eating lot fire crackers, chugging liquor in a library and one of his most recent videos he eats a sea shell. I kind of feel bad for him but he does it to himself.
We watched a documentary on Shoenice in my senior English class, and the dude has a shitty ass life for sure. He started doing videos and his wife kicked him out so he couldn't see his kids, and that's where he spiraled downwards.
Never really been a fan of his, but I've seen his liquor slam videos, and one where he eats a stick of deodorant and that was enough for me.
Definitely agree in the sentiment that he's going something wrong with him, and he should get some help. All he does (or did, at least) is try to move back home and his wouldn't have any of it while he was chugging liquor uncontrollably.

Shoenice is like a grown-up version of the kid who would eat spiders and dog shit for attention. LA Beast is a stunt man.
Downing an entire bottle of Everclear is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen a human do. Well, downing the bottle and then not dying, I mean. Seriously, that is a disturbing quantity of alcohol.

I was probably 12 sitting in the car with a friend (also 12) and my younger brother (9) while my dad went into a pizza place to pick up the pizza we had ordered earlier. It was a nice summer evening so we had all the windows down, he could clearly see us. He was parked next to us.
He comes out of the neighboring barber shop and notices us, we didnt say anything or really even looking at him but introduces himself amd starts talking about how he'll eat anything and everything. We were kinda freaked out, we didn't know who he was or what to do. We didn't say anything. He gave us a business card of his and then left... dad didn't see, we didn't say anything.
This was in Upstate NY probably 7 years ago if I had to guess.
Is he the guy who shotgunned a 2 litre bottle of vodka? I mean, he makes shitty videos, but you have to respect his alcohol tolerance level. (Bit late)
That guy is insane and annoying as shit.. but the video where he does the largest tequila slam is honestly hilarious ๐ his eyes are redder than the devil's dick by the end and I genuinely felt bad for him!

Each ad is around 1 dollars if watched for 5 seconds and then skipped and 3 dollars if watched in full. People like Pewdiepie or Markiplier have 1 ad per video at the beginning. Others like some of the Sidemen have 3 or 4 ads per video, which boosts their CPM by a very significant amount.

Not really. Their videos are at most 30 mins when they don't feel like editing and upload the raw footage, which Simon from the sidemen seems to be doing lately
Honestly. Every fucking video he says "I know I've been clickbaiting, and I'm going to stop" and then continues it "ironically" knowing very well what he's doing

They dressed up a medium sized dog (maybe 25-30 pounds) in a costume that made it look like a giant spider, and set it loose in mostly deserted public places at night. So some unsuspecting lady would turn the corner of a dark empty train station and see an enormous mutant spider running straight for her. A lot of people ran away and it was hilarious (but also terrifying for the people involved, I'm sure)

In my state, this is the detention law:
"A law enforcement officer lawfully present in any place may, in the performance of his duties, stop and detain any person who he reasonably suspects is committing, has committed, or is about to commit (1) a felony, or (2) a misdemeanor involving danger of forcible injury to persons or of appropriation of or damage to property, if such action is reasonably necessary either to obtain or verify the identification of the person or to determine the lawfulness of his conduct. An officer acting under this rule may require the person to remain in or near such place in the officer's presence for a period of not more than fifteen (15) minutes or for such time as is reasonable under the circumstances. At the end of such period the person detained shall be released without further restraint, or arrested and charged with an offense."

You know...I think it's peculiar that Reddit mocks the "am I being detained" crowd and simultaneously treats cops as objects of maximum suspicion; piles onto insane babble like calling cops "the largest cartel in America", "a mafia", "thugs in blue", etc. ; believes every conspiracy theory however large or small about policing for profit, cops getting away with crimes, etc. etc. I've repeatedly seen people around here proclaim they avoid cops at all costs, to the point they're not sure if it's worth bothering with cops in life or death situations.
I mean, you'd really expect the hypothetical "average" Redditor to be in the "am I being detained" crowd?
Inb4 I get fifteen snarky ass replies of "It's almost like Reddit is composed of more than one person": Yes, but there are still several clear majority (or at minimum plurality) opinions on Reddit. That's basically the point of the voting system, for god sake. There's plenty of things you can say on here that virtually never get net-disapproved by the subset who vote upon it, and at least sometimes get immense popularity.
Although I am not part of this group, I think you can still be suspicious and distrustful of cops while understanding how the law actually works. The "am I being detained" people go out of their way to have altercations with cops, thinking they know what they're doing, while the people on reddit you described just hate/avoid policemen. This isn't some bizarre cognitive dissonance or some shit, it's just possible to both dislike "am i being detained" people AND cops.

I only sort of dislike cops, I am however terrified of them. They pretty much have absolute power and can really fuck up your life in the short term, sure eventually everything will likely get sorted out, but you are screwed in the short term.
For example: Lets say a cop for some reason wants to beat the shit out of you, He could just walk up to you and start punching you in the face, and if you retaliate you are resisting arrest or assaulting an officer and he could shoot you and make up whatever story that clears him. Sure the odds of it happening are really slim, but the point is that with out current system it could happen. This is why we desperately need bodycams, if anything only to put the public at ease.

I think the video where a black lady is pulled over because shes "driving without an ice cream" illustrate this perfectly. Shes obviously terrified, and hes just having a laugh giving her an ice cream. I think a lot of people live in fear of the police even when they're doing nothing wrong.
Sure, it could happen, just like some criminal coming up and punching you. In fact that's exactly what it would be: a criminal cop. Truth is, most cops are good people, and when you need one, suddenly they're the best. Of course it may depend upon your skin color, and that really sucks, but let's give them the benefit of the doubt and also be watchful, as you should be with anyone carrying a gun.

Would you put your entire life/job on the line to stand up against a corrupt cop, knowing that many of the other cops have to make the same decision?

That's literally the job. If an officer won't do their job when a co-worker is involved, at the time they're seeing the illegal activity, they're corrupt. It really is that simple.

No one's talking about what's said when they get called in by Internal Affairs. I'm talking about seeing a bad cop doing wrong and reporting it. There's a long history of police witnesses to the illegal actions of other officers lying on their reports to cover up that illegal activity.
There's a long history of Americans raping people, therefore Americans are rapists.
Every unlawful act I've seen by a cop, I've reported or someone else reported it before I could. Continue to pull anecdotes out of your ass like you know what you're talking about though. It's cute.

As a white woman, no cop has ever helped me when I called. It has nothing to do with race, it is because I live in a very poor town. I have had them do nothing or make my issue worse, but never help.
That reminds me. In case your fear wasn't already bad enough. There was this guy, (I think his name was sheriff brown or something) who would, quite literally, torture or even kill the people he brought in. Including a pregnant lady's baby who later was killed by him. A baby.
I maybe paraphrasing, but I remember him saying that if they thought they were being violated or treated unfair, they are "lucky" that he does truly harass them. As in death. He may have also even called himself a fascist, through and through. This guy goes after you if you look at him remotely funny. Like, I'm not even kidding. He did that.
This wasn't even in the Wild West or some third world country, this happened somewhat recently (a few years at most) in the good ol' modern US of A. He's one of the few people I would consider having pure, inexcusable evil in their hearts.

Yeah, Sure 95% of cops are probably super cool people who do their jobs properly, but there will always be that small percentage who are assholes that take advantage of their position.
Oh yeah, of course. Ending up as the lucky bastard who gets to hang out with Officer Crazy is less than, like, getting killed by a shark. Just another irrational fear for the fear bank.
He could just walk up to you and start punching you in the face, and if you retaliate you are resisting arrest or assaulting an officer and he could shoot you and make up whatever story that clears him
Wait until you hear about the cops wanting to not use or have the ability to turn off the cameras that are suppose to protect the people (and themselves depending on the situation). It's like those senate members that are wanting to dismantle the entity that monitor their ethics.
I feel you on being afraid. I am a female and a victim of rape and a cop once told me that he would beat me and rape me in the back of his cruiser if he got a hold of me because I challenged what he said in a police statement. He was just making shit up, saying I said things that I didn't and blatantly lying. He said nobody would ever know. I still have warrants in my home state because I am afraid to even go there because I might get arrested, beaten, and raped. The cop filed charges against me saying that I had lied because he was angry that I said he lied on the report. He even came to my house to threaten me the night before and said he was going to put me away in a cage where he could come see me anytime.

I mean just the ordinary people who whine about cops and then babble "Am I being detained" at a sobriety checkpoint or whatever.

one of my old friend was/is like this. I think the term is sovereign traveller. He drives and rides motorcycles without a licence because he doesn't recognize the state's laws (state here means THE state, not the USA).
One time he asked an RCMP officer to show his badge to "prove the fact that he had the authority to even walk up and talk to him. he had some of it on video. the officer just laughed. Why you ask? Because he was in full dress uniform (some of them wear the uniform but no badge number up here in Canada, just a name card and ID number).
"My uniform isn't proof enough?"
My friend said nope and walked away. He called for backup and his entire camping trip was spent in a jail cell until they verified his identity. He was bitching to all of us once how they're dictators and abuse their power. And I remember my other friend almost got into it with him because he said, "Hey John, if I was also there I would want the RCMP to come up to you and ask for ID and such. They would do it to me too. I give them my ID and go about my way. What you were doing was suspicious." And he almost got into a yelling match.
In the u.s. you don't technically need a lisence unless you're using your vehicle for business, which you can say "I'm not driving I'm traveling" and the police can't really do much besides waste your time, so he might have got it from us, I personally spend the 20 (usd) and just not have to mess with that headache.
It's always fun to watch them makes fools of themselves, because the way they act makes them look suspicious enough that the police have enough probable cause to search their vehicle, which gets turned into a pulling match, because they never, ever, want to leave their freaking car.
Inb4 I get fifteen snarky ass replies of "It's almost like Reddit is composed of more than one person": Yes, but there are still several clear majority (or at minimum plurality) opinions on Reddit. That's basically the point of the voting system, for god sake. There's plenty of things you can say on here that virtually never get net-disapproved by the subset who vote upon it, and at least sometimes get immense popularity.
It's more complicated than that though. The people voting in any given subreddit or thread are a self-selecting group. What's the overwhelming majority opinion in one popular thread on /r/all may have no support in one two threads down. You really can't draw any meaningful conclusions on the ['typical'] views of the reddit population as a whole from upvote counts.
How is believing that some cops are croocked contradictory to belief that some people are stupid? I don't see the problem with believing both of those facts.

When you post in different subreddits, different people read it. People that may all agree with or disagree with you based on the subreddit. If you posted "Trump is a great president" in the Donald Trump subreddit, you will get mostly upvotes. That doesn't mean a majority of reddit agrees, it's just that the people that read it are different
If you posted "Trump is a great president" in the hillary subreddit, you might get a different response.

its a whole shameless genre. React channels that play the whole video. This is jacksfilms reacting to his video being stolen like that https://youtu.be/eWa49R6bOnU
They take a video that someone made. play the whole thing. add nothing to it. and dont even link the original. Fuck react channels.
I checked out some of those videos a bit back and what I seen was that if they actually talk and say something at all, half the comments are: "Don't talk you're missing the video".
They don't add anything what so ever and the second they add commentary their fans hate the video.
That's not an unlikely answer. In some countries you can pay for someone to private video chat with you while you both eat. These cam models, the tasty variety, are part of a large industry and typically suffer from eating disorders as they try to earn as much as they can a day, eating a meal for each client.
Although my example was culture-based, it could be that some people feel relief from loneliness by watching these content-copy ruffians.

Usually when those comments happen it's because they just look into the camera and talk about irrelevant things while everything people want them to react to passes them by lol.
Yeah, there are a lot of great react channels out there. Renegades React is one of them for example, they talk a lot before and after the reaction about the video and they go deeper in the subject. There are others like Blind Wave etc... but come on, no need to shit on react channels as a whole like parent did right there.
True, if the original is credited in title/ first sentence of description I see no need to fuss about it, especially if the original has no ads like History of Japan.
The only channel that I don't despise as a reaction channel and consider cancer is 'ZIAS!' They just react to music videos and sort of input their lyrical astonishment (LOL) Every other react channel I've seen is just downright sub par.
To be fair, if the original video was entertaining in the first place there wouldn't be that much silence in the reaction videos. But I agree, reaction videos are stupid.
It's plagiarism, youtube seems to have been cracking down on it recently, but with some stupid amount of video hours being uploaded per hour, it's pretty hard to govern it completely.
If you have the power I could get rid of react videos by myself.
Remove every single react channel with 100k+ subscribers. There can't be more than 1000-2000 of them.
That alone kills the momentum of those videos drastically. Then go and remove any react video that is well made and leave the super shitty ones.
They can't do it because people would be in an uproar but barring consequences react videos can be dead within a month

Is it plagiarism if they cite the video they're sitting there watching? It's definitely uncreative and uninteresting, but if they credit the original source I honestly don't know. There's a moral quandary with stealing views that should rightfully go to the original poster, but is it something slightly different than all out plagiarism?
BigSphinx ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 06:36:08 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
IANAL but there's "fair use" laws that allow clips of a work used for review, parody, or "transformative" purpose (like hip hop sampling, although this is another subject entirely), but nothing legally allows you to reuse or quote an entire original work. The react videos are in gray legal area only because there hasn't been a lot of specific ruling on IP in the digital era (expect this to change in the next decade or so, though) and content platforms change extremely fast.
Marenum ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 07:36:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
That makes sense. YouTube has always been pretty bad about policing copyright infringement even in blatant examples. If these reaction videos are going to continue to be popular, they definitely should come up with some rules behind them.
Youtube has every reason to NOT discourage the behavior unless forced to. More views, more $$$.

umaro900 ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 07:38:57 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The Fair Use doctrine has 4 parts:
the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
the nature of the copyrighted work;
the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
The whole "transformative" part falls under #1. Let's just say that somehow your embedding of the video in yours counts as that. We'll ignore #2, but we can leave it to say that it isn't any excuse for one of these "react" videos. #3 clearly does not help our case that it's fair use; the video was used in its entirety.
Now #4 is where this video is clearly and undeniably guilty. In general, a large class of law (tort law) is made so that people don't infringe upon each others' rights in ways that do harm (physical, financial, or otherwise), and this is the part where that is really established. While there may be some ambiguity in the statement of the first 3 points, this part may be argued in dollars and cents. Viewers who would watch the original video clearly have no incentive to watch it after watching the "react" video, it's not hard to argue that those views are directly taking away from the original's views (and consequently the market/value). If this react video instead used the original in a way which clearly boosts the value of the work, it would be much harder to argue against Fair Use.
Thanks for clarifying that. I guess the real problem is that Youtube and modern tech have created this sort of reposting culture that the laws weren't created for and are too slow to react to, and YouTube has no real incentive to strongly discourage (in fact they have every incentive to encourage it).

For sure. It is impractical (and unpopular) for companies to track down the ubiquity of minor offenders online. Many proposed pieces of legislation (e.g. the TPP) would make it more practical, but they also come with negative externalities. Without a clear solution on the legal front, the industries and producers have to adapt to this new landscape of funding and distribution with things like DRM, subscription services, and Patreons.
YouTube has no real incentive to strongly discourage (in fact they have every incentive to encourage it).
But YouTube does have real incentive to discourage this sort of plagiarism within the existing legal landscape. There is a precedent for companies which do not effectively police themselves to be shut down, in essence for being complicit in wrongdoing (e.g. Napster). Youtube doesn't have the means or the financial incentive to be a perfect judiciary in and of itself, but it at least needs to give a reasonable effort in the eyes of the law (albeit law which is very fluid at the moment).
Wasn't Gilbert Gottfried reading the entire 50 Shades of Grey book also considered a parody? Even though you don't have to buy the book if you listen to him read the whole thing. Isn't that transformative enough?
Well he's transformed it into a new medium where his voice plays an essential part in the new content. It's not like he released his own version of the book with some kind of commentary. It's not a replacement for the experience of reading a book. Personally I'd say it's not as bad as just displaying the video in a smaller frame, but still in a gray area. But I have no clue about IP law, so take this with a grain of salt.
Did he read the entire book? I just googled it and could only find clips. If he read the whole thing, he'd need to license it and pay for the rights. Although I'm sure there's an argument to be made for his unique delivery being within fair use, but a court probably wouldn't agree.
The thing most people seem to forget is the country you are from's laws still exist. In my country, everything you create is your copyright. Technically I can go to court against somebody even though they 'claim' it's fair use. Now, in real life this is different, because it's really difficult to go to court with a random foreign person by whom you only know of as "1337killer69".
Ah, I see. Well, in hindsight, I remember that what I wrote was more like if the person who claims it's fair use is also from my country. Because we've had cases like that, where people won the case because the law is simply above the terms of use.
The real case was with Facebook pictures, where Facebook tells in their ToS that anybody can use your pictures if they are set to public. Sure, but the law says otherwise.
Let's frame ot this way. Is it copy right infringement if you upload an entire movie to youtube, with an image of you watching the movie in the corner, but you point out who owns the movie in the description?
Marenum ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 08:52:24 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
That's an interesting way of looking at it. It definitely applies to this example. I don't really watch a lot of YouTube stuff, but don't most reaction videos just use clips of the original source?
Some channels' creators will have the video cut to just the parts where they actually react, but the majority will include the whole original video and a continuous shot of their reacting (long stretches of silence ahoy!) for even less effort put into the editing process.

"No copyright infringement intended". Oh, ok then, as long as you didn't mean it
I fucking hate that. Especially for the people who do use fair use in the proper way but still have to deal with YouTube's shitty copyright system, and larger corporations thinking they can bully you into just letting them make money off the video you have spent days on.
I just love when people post something they don't own (usually music) and then just say something pointless in the description like "all rights to owner" without saying who the owner is, and they are usually uploading stuff without even thinking about if the owner is OK with them posting the content.

If this was deemed not fair use in a court of law, that would have huge implications to the entirety of Youtube. If to some, adding value means watch his blank reaction to a video with a few words thrown in (and looking at his audience that seems pretty true, like it or not) then is should fall under fair use.
Take the good with the bad. If you don't like it, don't watch and don't watch videos where someone addresses it. All it does is send more traffic their way. That's kind of against the point of social exclusion.
The point here is that there are actual demands for videos like this. The populace is so dumbed down that they enjoy watching people do the same thing they would do.
Services like Twitch just shows people who enjoy watching other people do the same thing they would do.

I mean, the react channel is actually a legitimate react channel, they have good production, they have a specific age group that are reacting with a good number of reactees. They focus on the actual reactions and will never show the video being reacted to without someone having a proper reaction (unlike 'react' videos where most of the video is just the guy with his mouth open saying nothing). They then have over half the video as discussion about the video and provided background facts about the video.

I have beef with these guys. I have Youtube videos that have been monetized by movie studios and record companies for using their trailer or portion of music. I get it, I made the video but I didn't make the original content, sure whatever. But now these guys come along, play my video in theirs, talk over it, and THAT'S ok to cash in on?
I absolutely detest reaction videos. I don't understand how they even exist, let alone why people continue to make them.
I can't stand when I'm watching a video on youtube and the suggested videos are "reactions to x video I am currently watching." Yup, Shrek is Love, Shrek is Life is fucking weird, what is your point in recording yourself having the same goddamn reaction as everyone else who watched it for the first time?
Also, it always seems to me that because they film themselves reacting to something, they overreact.

The only reaction videos I've seen and liked was the ones with the old people playing GTA V. Honestly though I don't really trust them to be any less directect or scripted than reality shows.
First time I heard about reaction videos was because of 2 girls 1 cup. I watched those reactions but that was only good because the content was so extreme.
Same, I've found a few that do the same, but finebros had the most interesting conversations... Like the the elders react to slipknot or teens react to Tupac.
Yup, when they show a clip, they focus is on the reaction, they never show a part of a video if no one is reacting. Also over half the video is generally discussion about the video and background facts that they provide to the reactees.
I find some of their other stuff more interesting than the reacting to videos on their main channel. Things like "tasting weird food", "trying to see if you know certain songs from a certain decade", etc.
There are actually "good" react channels that just show a timestamp showing where they are in the video at any given time.

Some content creators actually encourage people to do react videos. Rooster Teeth tends to be very supportive of the YouTubers that react to their stuff, they just don't let the YouTubers monetize the videos themselves. In cases like that, they're fine since they get attention for the content creators and are frequently sought out by people who have already seen the original, but these tend to be exceptions.
For react videos that are done with the creator's blessings, I'm fine with them if the YouTuber isn't just sitting and watching, but rather discussing it and fielding discussion - that adds something and, as said, is done with the permission of the creator. When they either dead fish the video by just sitting there in silence or are using content without the blessing of the creator, then it's absolute cancer and should be stamped out.
There is a channel called Renegades React that I like to watch. They have a bit in the beginning where they talk a little bit about what they might watch, they then watch the video and laugh along with it, and then afterwards they take a while to discuss their thoughts on the video. It's not just a straight up cut and paste of the video, but rather they want to add onto it with their discussions and what not. I think that's fair to have to both react and discuss a video that they are watching.
H3 is the golden standard of how to do a reaction video/channel. Actually have reactions and insight, as well as good editing and funny personalities.

Literally watch someone watch a video and see how they react. Most the time, they sit there for minutes on end, let out a few gasps, add an odd joke here and there, and call that a video.
I like Lost Pause, but that's about it. Plus his react videos are only about 1/10th of what he does and he goes through and adds a bunch of edits and removes or censors anything he finds questionable.

Not always easy to find a friend who hasn't already seen your favorite movie. Especially once you've already watched it with them once.
Plus a lot of my friends don't really like talking during movies, whereas with react channels it's very much expected. Much easier to enjoy watching someone experience something for the first time if they share their thoughts with you while they're doing it.
The finebros are doing a pretty good job at making proper react videos. Jaby Koay is also good. It's interesting to see the perspective of other people on Indian things and he actually talks in between and has a discussion after the video.
Meh, there are some shit reaction channels and then there are some actually pretty good ones. For example: Blindwave. They edit and only show select highlights and then at the end they analysis and discussion what they liked and disliked.
That's why I appreciate H3H3 so much. After a few month of watching them did I realize they were a a (semi) react channel. They do it so well and Ethan adds so much originality and humor to make it an actual video.
Reply girls were worse in my opinion. Not only did the videos suck, but because of them they scrapped the reply function on videos.
As a Defranco movie club watcher this totally sucked cause they cancelled it cause it was to hard to keep track of all the replies and it totally killed the community aspect of the format.

React channels that put some actual effort and editing in, I find more acceptable tho :P. Like the "Kids react to" series and so on.
I agree mostly- but I do like Elder's react. There are multiable elders per episode, and its not always videos(sometimes playing games and once a 3d printer). Plus at the end they usually discuss it with them so you get to hear how they feel about it.

On the other hand, there are reaction channels that actually add a lot of thoughts and discussion before, during, and after the video they're watching, which I would argue is sefinitely fair use. But this is not true of Jinx's videos, he is a cancerous little shitstain.
I think a system like riff.tv has would solve the issue though; letting the reaction and the original video be played and synchronized.

"I do it to help the original creators! I give them exposure!"
In terms of actual content, the OG fine bros react channel was good because they had multiple people, multiple age groups etc. and they talk about it and the videos effect afterwards so I wouldn't call it lazy.
I like a few certain movie review channels that do reactions to trailers the day they are released, they're usually talking over the clip and dissect it afterwards to see what's in there, so usually you'll have to go and watch the original trailer anyway.
This is only for a few 'professional' channels, not some kid watching an action or superhero trailer and going apeshit when he sees anything cool happening.
Who watch react videos and why would they do that?

Once saw a reactipn video where they showed the full original, which lasted like seven minutes and the only thing the guy said during the full 7 or so minutes was "damn, this video is long". ffs...
How the fuck is it not straight up plagiarism or copyright infringement to use someone else's content in its entirety?
Also... I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone watches react videos. Could there be a more pointless (serious) theme for a video / channel? Why does anyone give a fuck?
Also you know it's not the first time they've seen the video. They talk over it and yell all over it.

I find some react channels acceptable like The Normies. Where they watch TV episodes in groups with max of 10 min footage according fair use. These are the reactions people watch after having watched the episodes on TV .
React channels who watch video from other youtubers are literally stealing their revenue.
Even worse, the fugly bros who tried to copyright react videos so only they could make them, and they weren't the original creators.

Fuck people who enjoy watching other people watching other stuff and 'react' (fake most of the times) to it. blame the demand for stupid shit, not the people doing stupid shit to get money out of it, more power to them.
Then in contrast you have channels like Armored Skeptic that "react" or respond to videos and only show the bits of the video that they are actually responding to.
That is one thing I'll give the finebros--I really dislike them for that react world stunt they pulled, but they never play the whole video (and link back to the full video so people can go watch the full thing) and they show actual reactions.

I blame Fine Bros Entertainment for making this shit a trend. At least they tried to rein it all in through React World, then got burned for trying to monetise the monster they created.
I actually really like the idea of reactions to stuff you are a fan of, like a trailer or a reveal of a game or movie you've been waiting for, or you could react to something so bad it's funny like the room.
Youtubers who try everything they can so they can make their videos 10 minutes long, which is the minimum time allowed for you to put mid-video ads in.
Like those Youtubers who 'call Rockstar asking for GTA6' will literally include film of them dialing the number and waiting for someone to pick up just to squeeze every second of extra time in. It's so boring and pathetic.
Really? I upload my game replays to youtube so I can watch them later on and easily share them to my friends and haven't had any issues uploading videos, most of which are over 30 minutes.
About a year ago I got an email from Youtube saying "congratulations, your videos have enough views and we're gonna start letting you upload longer videos". I've posted like 1 video about 8 years ago. It's got maybe 100k views now. I still don't know why I got that email lol
No you don't. You just have to verify your account when doesn't take very long. I made a channel and then the next day verified it so I could post videos as long as I wanted.

The worst ones I've seen have been those who literally finish the video 8 minutes in and just have a black screen for the remaining 2 minutes. So SO pathetic.
I'd find that more tolerable than people who put the time-wasting bullshit midway through or spaced out though. At least then you can just close the tab.

MrBossFTW, LipsyJimmy and pretty much almost every other GTA YouTuber are amongst the lowest of the low when it comes to their videos.
Click bait thumbnail with lots of arrows? Check.
TITLE IN ALL CAPS WITH PROVOCATIVE DESCRIPTIONS? YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE ANSWER!
Stealing information from others without due citation and pad out the video to 10 minutes by using every possible means to make your sentences as inefficient as possible (Saying Grand Theft Auto Online every time rather than using the abbreviation, for example)? Check.
Devote the first 5 minutes begging for likes and subscribes and promoting their livestream? Guilty as charged.
The number of GTA YouTubers that are considered reliable and actually worth watching can be counted on one hand, and that fucking depresses me, and every single one of them have subscription counts that are magnitudes lower than these clickbaity assholes.
Yeah I mean props to rooster teeth they have the demos covered in all forms of Let's Play like I can't get super into achievement hunter because I think they are geared towards the teen demo.
Second that, they also don't ham up asking for likes and views during the videos. They just play and have a laugh.
They also put out a ridiculous amount of content.
I work in YouTube, and with YouTube analytics- joke's on these people. Views fall off a cliff on >10 minute videos. I think people are more scared of 4 digit timecodes and less willing to commit to longer videos. Kinda like how it'll sell more if it's $9.99 rather than $10.00.

Preroll and banner ads. Btw ad blocker doesn't take money away from your favorite creators, google takes that hit for them so ublock away.
Plus most youtubers who make a living off YouTube have either google partnerships that give them most of their funding, or sponsorships like what PhillyD does to keep the lights on. So you really are only hurting google with adblockers.

It depends on the channel. Bigger channels work like that, but some smaller partnerships do not. It all depends on if you're getting funding independently of Adsense or how much or what the deal is. Just know that if you want to fuck over a YouTuber, don't watch. Don't dislike andleave a comment, just avoid the video altogether. .
Triburos ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 02:25:34 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's actually really interesting to hear all of this assuming you're being truthful about working in YT analytics.
Here's a question; what exactly do dislikes do to effect a video in general? Does each, individual dislike reduce the chance of it being shown to someone, or does it take a handful - like a percentage of all ratings - to block it from recommended filters?
Do an unhealthy amount of dislikes affect monetization for creators in anyway? As in does a video with alot of dislikes result in less profit per registered view?
I ask because I'm not really on the Youtube profit train, nor have I had the time or patience to track any of this information down. But it seems like more and more content creators don't care if their video is majority liked or majority disliked. Just as long as they're getting enough view time out of someone to register a view in the eyes of the system so they can get paid. So I'm curious what dislikes bring to the table.
And while on the subject, what exactly does commenting on a video do to help the video grow in exposure?
It's unclear, and part of what I do is investigate that data. I work for a YouTuber, not YouTube itself so I don't have the exact algorithm information. The data we've gathered so far isn't enough of a sample to be rock solid but so far there's little correlation, if any, between likes, dislikes and views. Genuine youtubers will pay attention to dislikes, and if there are a lot they'll self-evaluate. But that's predicated on the youtubers giving a shit about what the fans think.
Triburos ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 03:04:17 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Ah that's what you ment by doing work with YouTube, gotcha.
And yeah, I've always had this suspicion that there's sort of a weird disconnect between likes, dislikes, views and what not.
It feels like they should be more entwined. But I mean... If you get a majority view, you're getting paid. So a dislike isn't really going to hurt you that much unless they drastically effect video exposure.
The idea YT has is that engagement is a better measure. If a video has a bunch of clicks but they leave right away, that actually hurts the video in terms of how often it turns up in searches or related videos. And that captures true engagement rather than only the population of polar extremes. It also does a better job of fighting blatant clickbait. If you click on "MILA KUNIS NUDEZ" and immediately recognize there will be no nudez, you leave right away, YouTube figures out this is deceptive bullshit and it hurts the video for the future. There's a lot more that goes into it though.
So I looked at both the videos and I think the spike was because his video was about YouTube drama. The work I'm doing is searching for patterns across many videos, not just the one experimental one. People fucking love YouTube drama and YouTube stats stuff. Always performs well.

Dislikes can actually help a channel, all interaction help rank a video higher. So like, dislikes, shares, comments all do much the same thing. A video with a ton of views and no interaction is an obvious flag that it has been viewbotted or extremely boring. The only downside is a video with a lot of dislikes has a higher chance of the viewers leaving the video early, which will hurt audience retention. Which is very important to where the video ranks on search and suggested.

No... I work for a YouTube network (also have a YouTube channel), AdSense only pays for monetized views. Using adblock the channel will earn nothing, also views from embedded sources that don't have ads will earn nothing. Probably over half of my earning are lost due to people using adblock.
This is why I love YouTube Red, even though their exclusive content is shit. I can watch videos without ads, and not feel bad about YouTubers losing money.
KoaIaz ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 03:40:46 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
<3 You also earn more money for YouTubers than you would watching ads. At the moment it's around $1 for 1000 minutes, so watching a 20 minute video would earn around 10 times of what an ad would :)
That's great, I didn't know that. I don't want to sound pretentious, but it seems like most people take YouTube for granted and feel entitled to free content without ads. Something has to give, and I really don't want to go back to network television.
I hope the climate improves, because YouTube is pretty horrible at communicating with content creators and viewers alike.
And overall, YouTube red is pretty half baked, but it's the best we've got right now.
That actually makes me happy. I keep Adblock on at all times (I used to take it off for sites I wanted to support, but then one of them had an ad that gave me a virus so now I don't even bother) but I also want to support YouTubers I like. So for the bigger ones I watch videos on their site, but YouTube is generally more convenient.

Honestly, it's not even that bad, he threw his G2A logo into the intro logo part, and filled the extra time with his normal content.
He just also ensures that every video is over 10 minutes, and enabled mid-vid ads.
And I don't do commercial breaks. I'd happily resub and ignore the G2A stuff if the mid-roll ads went away.

Verlisify says hi..
This guy can somehow turn something that should only take 30 seconds to explain or tell and turn it into a 10 minute video. Also all his titles are all caps and he uses click bait thumbnails.. and he does this for every single video.
Best part was when he made a video defending his videos and that video was 10 minutes as well.
The big thing about this is that it just doesn't work as well as condensing your video. With people getting fed up of waiting, they'll just leave, and you won't get as much watch time
I don't mind if there's like 20-30 seconds of filler content to reach ten minutes as I want the people I watch to get as much money as possible from their hard work but anything more than that though is going a bit too far
Im fine with youtubers who stretch their video IF its filled with good content and not just a blackscreen. Some of them live from YouTube, understandable.

That's like kids shows that have clips that get repeated every episode that they can copy/paste in.
That includes lengthy starting intro and closing credits of course but also scenes like team rocket going through their motto, power rangers transforming then putting their combined weapon together and then summoning zords and combining it in to the megazord, etc. I mean add in the copypasted teleportation scenes, ritas 'Make my monster grow', and outside shots of the angel grove community center and the original power rangers was almost half filler....which is pretty cheap considering the fight scenes were copied from pre existing Japanese shows. Lowest budget hit ever.

He rented an office space to set up an official streaming studio and everything, back in the days of LookAtMyGaming. But then his stream just kind of died.
If I remember correctly he wanted to be a variety streamer but got shoe horned into playing minecraft and his minecraft viewers never really stuck around for other games. It's kind of a shame what's happened with him.

titty streamers is just a word for females on twitch that are popular because of their looks, the site doesn't allow nudity or anything like that
That being said there are couple channels that directly link to the streamers mfc or other service like that or there are sub bonuses like snapchat adds after couple months of subscribing and things like that(snapchat then has content like MrsViolence' snap NSFW obviously)
Oh wow. That's real desperate. At that point, why even operate out of YouTube? If it's actually bringing in subs, then clearly there are other platforms people want them to be on
Sub for sub. Ugh, especially when their channel has nothing to do with mine. Like, I get a rock musician asking a more famous/popular rock musician to sub them... but I have had more than one shitty electro/dubstep channel leave those comments on my videos. I do let's plays, I don't want to sub to you in the first place.
It's like they try and hold their sub/like for ransom until you sub/like them, without even the courtesy of checking if you would even be remotely interested. Or if their one sub would make a difference.

As a new channel the Sub4Sub comments are SO disheartening, they really provide no benefit at all and it sucks to see you've got a new comment on your video only to see it's some Sub4Sub masked spam.

I love reporting spam comments on my youtube channel.
I also report each and every network "representative" that tries to contact me to join their multi-channel crapstorm for the third time after previously telling them to not contact me anymore.
I actually contacted a tv network to tell'em about how unprofessional one of their "agents" was for contacting several people through fb\youtube\twitter using public messages instead of a more professional email. lol.
It's always the super tiny channels with like 50-300 subs or less who message/comment with that sub4sub crap and the like. Or, my favorite--either a comment or direct message that goes something like:
"Hey man, <generic compliment about your videos>! I also have a channel where I do <subject of their channels, about 50/50 chance it's even remotely related to your content>. I'd love it if you'd check it out and maybe sub! <What I really want is for you to shout me out and give me free publicity>!"
Pre-pubescent kids, or really young teenagers almost every time. I only have 3,300 subscribers and I get about two of these per week. I can't imagine how inundated the really big channels must be with this kind of begging.
I think the really big channels just have a bunch of comments in general, so they probably get balanced out and ignored, but they probably get a loooot of grubby comments. It's funny, I think I've gotten a comment fitting that exact description from a chanel that was my size or bigger before, too.

I don't mind when channels do this knowingly, like as a way to mess with their viewers in a funny way. Like OfftheRanch does that for a lot of his vlogs and it's actually amusing because it's like "how is this title and thumbnail image gonna come up in the video?" IDK as long as they can make it sorta relate and make it funny I don't mind.

Same here, I found him through demo, then started watching Vet. He didn't have the Off the ranch channel at first, but when he made it I started watching it aswell
Of the three, my favorite is OfftheRanch. I like the other two as well, of course, but OfftheRanch is more general and random and I like that. What about yours?

"MY GIRLFRIEND AND I MADE A SEXTAPE or MY GIRLFRIENDS NUDES LEAKED"
RomanAtwood has perfected this technique. He has 20 minute long daily vlogs where he just records his day and every single video has millions of views and upwards 90% ratings. His titles are always a click bait, like "IT'S OVER" (thumbnail has him hug his gf, implying a break up, but nothing actually happens in the video) or "WE FINALLY DID IT" (happy people in the thumbnail, nothing noteworthy happening in the video).

This guy Lost Paise does it, but it's more a running joke of his community. So he is doing it more for a joke for his community rather than someone, as you said, whoring themselves out.

Basically every vlogger in existence. Especially Faze members.
Being into sneaker culture, I've found that YouTubers in this genre are the absolute WORST with this & have made me stop giving a shit about their videos. It honestly makes me cringe a bit cause they try so hard to make you click.

or the ones where it's a red circle and arrow pointing to some random part of the thumbnail. So you watch to see what they ere trying to point out in the thumbnail, but the picture isn't even in the video.
assuming they are people in the same household sharing the same computer as the system intended, sure. Otherwise i have no idea how that even works with 3 people potentially competing to use your library.

If you sign into someone else's computer with your steam account, you can activate family sharing, which shares your games with whatever pc you've signed onto (so long as you allow them to.)
i'm aware there of the intended and the common actual use for the system is. Its just that your entire steam library is usable by 1 person at a time. when the owner goes to play a game, if that one person is playing in normal online mode they get 5 minutes to stop.
I imagine 3 people potentially using that 1 slot gets competitive :D

It didn't cross my mind that people would be that stupid, I mean the fire challenge was one thing, like you could take precautions etc., but...pouring boiling water on yourself is just...jeez
Why? I actually don't know why all the hate towards these videos came about, out of all the YouTube memes these dont make sense. They weren't bad videos, it was basically like hydraulic press channel w/ knives. Idk, that's just my opinion.
I don't mind the originals I find them quite entertaining! It's when dumb lifestyle YouTubers do it in their own back yards in shorts and nearly kill themselves. It's stupid and dangerous. A girl I used to be subscribed to (I unsubbed because of this) did it on her porch in shorts and was cutting through sparklers. It burned through her table and her porch.
And of course the '$5000 item vs 1000 DEGREE KNIFE' is just wasteful.
In general I thought the idea was really stupid and didn't watch them except for the one Jenna Marbles did which was pretty funny. She did 100 layers of nail polish, foundation, lip gloss, spray tan, and 50 layers of fake eyelashes because she didn't think 100 would fit on her eyes, all at the same time. I just like how over the top it was. Plus I like Jenna in general, I think she's usually entertaining.

She starts out with regular makeup highlighters (super shiny crap if you didn't know) Around 2:00 mark she breaks out legit ink highlighters. At 4:00 you can see the full effect- the eyelashes look freaky. And then she goes highlighter crazy.
Christ that's ridiculous. 100 layers of spray tan ๐ Yeah I only really watched SimplyNailogical do the first one and then after that I was like please stop doing this
I don't know Jenna Marbles can do no wrong in my opinion. Some of her videos are weaker than others but I always manage to laugh. I'm a 28 year old chick though so I'm probably her demographic.

I love how he's a daily vlogger, a 'youtuber', but he's really honing skills to a craft and diversifying outside that medium as well. I think he'll be really successful in the future.
She said in a video a while back her subscribers grew with her. We were all early twenty shit shows with her when she began! I really saw her mature as she got older, less anger, and I feel like I've gone the same way.
Yeah, she did a 100 layers of everything. Polish, lipstick, eyelashes and I think self tanning lotion.

Anything by Onision... From killing a turtle from heathstroke, bullying suicidal viewers and even encouraging suicide, to basically torturing his wife who due to Alzheimer for a moment forgot who Onision was, thought he was a kidnapper, and instead of like CALLING AN AMBULANCE TO HELP HIS WIFE, HE STARTS FILMING AND IS LAUGHING IT OFF

Onision is one of those YouTubers where I won't even look at his videos for ammunition, because I'm worried my adblock will slip up and he'll get a penny of revenue from me gathering material.
Don't worry about giving him revenue, YouTube goes by how long a person watched the video. So if you clicked on the video just to read the comments, you'll give him a view, but he won't get any money because YouTube can see how long a person watched the video for, and they won't pay him if people only watched the first couple seconds.

There's a shit ton of drama with him right now that involves a slew of people calling him out for being an abusive shit because of what happened between him, his wife, their ex-girlfriend, and her friend. Recently he announced that because of everything happening online, they'd be moving their 16 year old roommate (who he has been flirty with) back out to her parents. It's fucked up. He's a piece of shit.
He panders to a younger female demographic. If I remember correctly, his Instagram/Facebook photos are all mostly done in a way to emulate a "teenage heartthrob" vibe and tries to look very cutesy. It's so cringy and horrifying when you know more about what has happened behind the scenes and that he is in his mid-30s now.

I'm not just jumping on a bandwagon btw, I used to watch Onision all the time when I was younger and saw all this happen in front of my eyes. As I grew up I realised how messed up this guy was. Whether or not it was him that lied in specific, he's still really creepy and weird

well i liked his context back then when he wasn't always informing us about his relationship with his 2 girlfriends lol. his recent videos on UhOhBro are good though.
He actually has bullied suicidal viewers many, many times. He does the same thing with viewers who self harm; he calls them weak and "overdramatic" for feeling that way.

I'd just broken up with my ex a few years back and she sent me one of his videos concerning depression & cutting etc, and how you shouldn't be with someone who suffers from mental health issues, as justification for our break up.
Now, whilst in retrospect I'm glad we broke up because she went more than a tad weird in the months after, how much of a shitty person does he have to be to make a video that, because of his viewers' general demographic, will make them feel even worse about suffering from mental health issues and continuing its demonisation.
I used to self harm and watched it when it came out and it sort of guilted me out of doing it, which was pretty unhealthy because it did make me feel fucking pathetic but I guess it worked.
It worked for you, but it probably made lots of other viewers suffering from it feel like they're all alone. Not only is it still a shitty thing to do, but it kinda contradincts the person I replied to's comment.
Yeah I just felt even more ashamed of myself and moved on to an even worse depression just without the cutting. It didn't last forever though and I started again
I actually got banned from commenting on his videos for pointing out errors and lack of logic in his videos. Just seeing that dude's face makes my blood boil.

Shilo is currently 24, and Onision is 31 now I think, keep in mind this happened a few years back which freaks me the fuck out even more now since I thought Shilo was around his age at the time.. I don't think it was alzheimers, but Shilo has mental health problems and I think physical health problems so it's possible she had forgotten him due to one of those, the original video is deleted but thankfully people saved it and I remember when he uploaded it, I was a subscriber at the time and his treatment of her really disgusted me, he 100% should've called a doctor especially if this was due to health problems, not filmed her and uploaded it.
Edit: This all happened in 2011 I believe, meaning Onision did all of this drama to an unwell barely-adult, considering she would've been no more than 17 or 18. With his track record of viciously "calling out" every single ex he's had, he shouldn't be allowed to exist.
[deleted] ยท 34 points ยท Posted at 13:47:15 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
If I remember correctly, he married her like right after he 18th birthday, which is creepy enough... But seeing some other comments saying it was fake, I'm starting to have doubts. Although, alzheimers at 18 definitely isn't impossible, if it's genetic
He's been on YouTube for years now, I was subscribed to him at the beginning, but his attitude really pissed me off so I unsubscribed. Now I guess he's sort of popular but mostly because so many people hate him because there's obviously something wrong with him, he's a psychopath.
He's a guy with multiple channels that have over a million subscribers. I'd say he's more than just sort of popular, but his main demographic seems to be kids in the 12-16 age group.
Also his video about what he didn't like about the military (my experiences in the USAF) where he talks oh so greatly about himself but tells everybody about how the military is unfair and dangerous is kinda crazy.
The one about his time in the Air Force made me want to throw something at him. Basic training is supposed to be mentally and physically demanding, what did he expect from it? The part about him getting triggered by doing flutter kicks was ridiculous
Apparently, rumors are going around that he actually raped somebody too. Don't know if it was his wife - likely because of the Alzheimer for that reason - or someone else.

Dude. I hate onision as much as the next sane, rational person, but his gf didn't really lose her memory. That was fake.
This comment and its replies was a real wake-up call for me, really made me realize how fucked up his vids are. Used to love the dumb brainless vids he made like "hoola hoop"
I have a few friends who watch him but stopped, i wouldnt even pay attention, especially after some of the shit i've heard about him, and what i've seen on the Drunken Peasants podcast. In my opinion, he's an incredibly smarmy putz
I remember back in the day he was alright youtuber, all he did was make silly videos of himself dressed like a banana. Kinda saddened to hear that he's become a piece of shit.
Wow, I didn't know he was that bad. I've been a fan for some time but have never dug very deep. Would you mind linking the sources to this information?
Check out Joy Sparkle BS on YouTube, watch her videos about him from the beginning. Especially look for the interview she did with two of his wife's ex-girlfriends. Joy has a whole series about Onision on her channel. In fact, she gained 11,000 viewers IN A SINGLE MONTH in January of this year because of all the drama that was surrounding his love life at the time.

It's bad but I at least appreciate it isn't outright objectionable. Anthony and Ian don't seem like bad people and they were really smart in marketing their success. I'm happy that they found a way to thrive at making silly videos for kids.
Smosh was my JAM when Youtube started. I remember watching their first videos at teh very start. When you could comment on them and actually get a reply. Lol.
It's not that they're bad per se, but while some channels have matured with theirs audiences (like the audience was 12 when they started and now they're 18 so the content is geared toward 18 year olds) Ian and Anthony have stuck with what makes money, the videos intended for 12 year olds work so that's what they make, they're pretty good guys in real life.
Has nothing to do with my mind or growing up in my case, because I still piss myself laughing at some of their older videos. I can watch the newer ones directly after and know that it's just not the same.
I would say the videos with the new cast is flat out bad. The videos where it's just Ian and Anthony without much of the new cast aren't the worst.

I've gotta agree, their view counts seem to be lower nowadays, they changed a lot by churning out videos more frequently and by hiring more smosh members/actors.

And because of the crippling depression yadda yadda

lonelygirl15 started out as what seemed to be a normal teenage girl's vlog back in 2006. There was this huge discussion of whether the vlog or the girl were real or not, and a lot of fans got together to point out inconsistencies in her videos.
lonelygirl15 was a popular vlogger on Youtube starting in 2006. I don't know the background of everything that she vlogged about as I was never an avid watcher but according to Wiki there was a complex story besides the teen drama she vlogged about. She got really popular in the summer of 2006, showing up on the front page a lot and generating a lot of conversation about her life and whether or not she was genuine. She was really one of the first Youtubers to amass such a vocal and interactive fanbase. People got really into it.
ย
Keep in mind that this was before Youtube offered ad deals with content creators so there really didn't seem to be a clear reason why someone would market themselves as a genuine, totally normal teen vlogger when they actually weren't. Let alone multiple people, because she had friends show up and create their own channels to corroborate her story along with their own. Watchers of her channel were really suspicious, though. One of the biggest reasons was how insane her story seemed. Another was the quality of her videos was way too good for the time. Especially for a girl supposedly just vlogging in her room and not part of a comedy or production company.
ย
In all, it took about four months for it to be confirmed as a hoax. There were some spinoffs and she kept doing videos for awhile after the reveal but it was never anywhere near as popular a channel as it was that summer. Youtube had created a really unique set of circumstances wherein this could have happened and been feasible in reality and part of its downfall was that it was too high quality. Early Youtube was weird, man.
Here's a playlist of all the videos in her story if you want to check them out. Most are very short.
Do you remember fred? and equals3 the early days? man youtube was completely different back then. I wish I could have a trophy for being subscribed to such youtubers since the start, but that's just a sign that I am as lonely as I was 10 years ago. excuse me.. cries

RWJ started like 2 months before Tosh.0 premiered, both in 2009. But since it probably takes longer to produce a TV season than regular YouTube videos and considering that RWJ wasn't instantly famous I'd say they started right around the same time.

So ironic how everyone is giving that video stealing idiot love when replying to a comment saying stealing videos is pathetic. All the dude did was rip other people's videos then add really cringy commentary over them.
Probably because there was no HD. Same reason sports broadcasts ten years ago look so shitty, there was nowhere to upload in the highest quality. And then it becomes worse with every reupload.
Not really relevant at all, but South Parks first few seasons were remastered because even back in 1999 they rendered out to HD in all their animations.

Wow, great forethought on that. I'm kind of confused about some of the differences in quality. I understand HD is crisper and such, but I didn't know there'd be such a color quality difference. Could it be that the one on the left is from a shitty download or something too?
Edit: Holy shit, just noticed the difference in cropping from the resolution.
HD means 1920x1080 resolution, which existed, but the bandwidth to upload videos at that resolution want widely available.

This is so true! I fondly remember watching Vsauce back in 2011, 2012 and it had a different vibe. It was more home-y if that makes sense. The current channel is still great but the production quality going up has also given it more of a generic vibe.

We said no so he went over to the living room PC and we all waited for it to boot. He loaded up the video and everyone was crowded around to watch. One of the first YouTube videos I've ever watched, and the whole family loved. After that, my cousins and I delved deeper into this new site and we laughed so much. Then we got that video of the car driving down the curvy hill and... You know... That one. Even still, early youtube was a great experience. We absolutely loved it. I wouldn't switch what we have now, but I wouldn't go against going back to the roots a little.
We can thank YouTube allowing people to get a piece of that ad revenue pie. Not to say it's bad, but half the people getting that revenue are just advertising kids toys.

I remember when he was the most subscribed YouTuber, which seemed weird to me back then given how despite that he never got much attention compared to Shane Dawson and like, Fred.
Definitely still funny though.

I like Vanoss a lot personally, kinda early, around 2009 I think, not too sure. You can tell a lot of his stuff is scripted, but it's a bit like a TV show with all his friends and shit. Different from the constant stream of bloggers and live comedy videos for me.

What makes him special is little interaction between himself and viewers, like a TV show. That can be for better or worse but I kind of like that as he doesn't change or conform to random people's tastes.

I think he was the first person to ever reach a million subs too no? For a while he was the most subbed YouTuber.
I believe the top 2 youtubers back at like 2009 time were NigaHiga and RayWilliamJohnson. Not sure about Ray but Ryan was definitely number 1 at some point near then

I still remember subbing to him when he and his friends wore wigs and lip synched to popular songs. He started doing his originals when his videos kept getting taken down.
I'm 23 now and I remember watching him back in high school and maybe middle school. Back when my family had a single desktop PC. He's like the OG youtuber
Smosh, RWJ, and EricSurf6 come to mind. REJ has declined. ericSurf6 isnt huge but still big. Smosh has been like top 10 forever in some way.
TheYoungTurks has gotten huge this election season, was only kind of big before and I remember it being tiny like 10-15k subscribers a couple years time before 2012 election cycle, had like maybe 7 people instead of over 70.
Im blanking on this other one aim trying to remember. Edit: Its Jon/Jogwheel
His videos are so low budget and somehow manage to blow away every one else's videos in terms of raw originality and humor. Nigahiga is truly one of the greats
I'm honestly so proud at how successful Ryan Higa is, especially being from humble Hilo. He's honestly the reason I even found YouTube in middle school because a local kid and his friends wanted everyone fo buss laugh
He was the first YouTuber to hit 1 million subscribers. I remember that being a big deal until RayWilliamJohnson hit 1 million like a month later. And now if you don't have 1 million subscribers you're barely even relevant...
First 1 million sub youtuber was Fred. Higa trailed behind Fred for a while before taking over, and surpassed by RWJ later. Smosh was 2nd-3rd consistently after Higa and RWJ. Fred just shorta disappeared. First 2 million was Higa, first 5 million was RWJ.

Even the worst of his new stuff is just as funny as the old, and the production quality is consistently higher, yet still clearly homemade. It's a perfect mix.
Part of it in the beginning was when How to Be Ninja and How To Be Gangster got taken down, people reuploaded them so others could watch it. Was the only way I got to watch them initially, I know

I'd never heard of him so I checked out his latest video (Draw My Life). Man, that's depressing. Childhood is the last damned thing I want to think about. :\
Most of his videos are funnier. But the draw my life is amazing because you can see how he turned all that sadness into humour and entertainment for others.

I think he made a lot of good points about her hypocrisy and it seems like a pretty solid argument about why she should probably calm down on her calling him out.
I don't buy the argument that "either all of it's okay, or none of it's okay." Humans are perfectly capable of creating vast spectrums of okayness, and not everything in the world has to be logical. Pure logic isn't necessarily the best way to approach the world. That was kind of the entire point of the character of Spock, for example.
Wow, that was painfully hard to get through. They both just seem like they want to stir up drama for views. Both of them come out with what they want in this. Which is publicity. Meh.
Not really, when IDubz made his content cop on leafy it started a whole tirade of people exposing Leafy which left a noticable dent in his subscribers which still to this day haven't gone up at all and his average views are down a ton, effectively stopped any further growth of his channel.

Ever since I started noticing the h3h3 stuff showing up on the front page regularly I've been fascinated by how completely non-compelling the material seems to be to me. For the most part it seems like just bashing mentally unstable people which is not by any means barren ground for humorous content, but there's this earnestness behind the silly outfits & faces- like what they're talking about are important problems for society- that I find a little unsettling.

Nothing to lose? He literally just takes the common arguments against whichever YouTuber it's popular to shit on at the moment and compiles them together into as long a video as he can make it. How long did he spend making jokes about Leafy's chin?

You've got to be kidding me. I can see liking the guys videos (which I do by the way) but I'd wager that 90% of kids in grade 11 could take him in a fight.
Teenagers are hopped up on testosterone dude. I got the shit beat out if me by a bunch of teenagers once and it felt like they were hitting me with sledgehammers.
I was a 25 year old man and even one on one they would rip me apart. They are just top aggressive and feel invincible. They don't think about things like "huh, maybe I shouldn't punch someone in the back of their neck, because that might kill or paralyze them."
They don't hold back at all.

Have you ever been in a fight before or after that? Because of the fights I've been in, the ones in high school against people my age were by far the easiest. Like dramatically so.

Wouldn't that put me on equal ground, then? And I was a little dude in high school, and no one I fought was as small as me.
Kids in high school have no idea what they're doing in a fight, and most of them haven't been in a fight before. They're also nowhere near their physical peak, and are much weaker than an adult male. A guy in his 40's or 50's that looks out of shape is still typically much stronger than a high schooler. Dad strength is a joke, but it's somewhat based in reality.
I fought adults and college students in high school as well, and they were stronger and had a bit more of an idea of what they were doing on average.
I'm pretty sure it depends on the individual. I could probably beat my teenager self with one arm tied behind my back. But I do agree that teenagers seem more reckless in a fight. Now if that reckless fighting is more effective? I don't know.

Yeah, I guess so. I'm not sure if teenagers are more reckless. A teenager never gouged my eyes, fish-hooked me, used a weapon, or went for my balls. Adults have done all of those to me.

How youtube lets that happen is beyond me. It's blatant stealing. This isn't the first time this guy's done this too, I've heard things back in last year about how he did it.
Ultimately it is possible to fool ContentID, especially if the infringing video is cropped and/or in some sort of frame (see all of the full movies that get uploaded), but it's always possible for creators to do manual claims/takedowns if they find their content has been taken.
The thing with react channels is they need to be transformative. Jinx is a scumbag, for instance. He plays the whole video and barely has any reaction. Whereas in the case of FBE, H3H3 or IHE's Trying to Watch, they actually provide some commentary and add their opinions on the topic.

I've seen some of his vids. Some of the laughs sound forced but there are a lot of situations where he'll go and tell a story to relating to something In the video
There are soooooo many "reaction" channels out there, but there are some genuine ones like h3h3 that don't really piggy back on the videos they are reacting to.
Goddamn, I love jacksfilms. Sure, his videos are obnoxious sometimes, but they're always original and creative. He's one of the few genuine content creators on Youtube, along with Captain Disillusion, CorridorDigital, Idubbbz, H3H3, VSauce, Dunkey, and FrankieonPCat1080p.

I think there a lot of good channels, people who put their heart into their stuff and it shows. Of course it depends on what kind of videos you like (letsplays, comedy bits, animations, science, social/political commentary, reviews...), and no one has time to follow everybody.
his argument that people use certain ableist or transphobic/homophobic slurs but cross the line at the n word is dumb, because a lot of people avoid them altogether. besides its impossible to ignore the context the word has. sure its easy for a white dude whos had the privilege of living his whole life without having to think about race to say that its just a word and people should just choose to not get offended, but the reality is that people still espouse these hateful beliefs. using these words validates the use of it by other people, whether you say its ironic or not.
in other words just because he says hes being ironic and that hes actually a hero for taking power away from the word, doesnt mean he isnt. the reality is hes just feeding into these hateful ideologies and leading a lot of impressionable young kids to believe that this kind of behaviour is okay
finally, hes just a piece of shit for stalking and harassing that one girl, no matter how stupid her actions may have been
The best part is when the guy he's making fun of says he's at like 980 subscribers and wants to celebrate with a Q&A at 990. You can see Jack almost crack up at that point.

I watch a YouTuber named Its Black Friday who occasionally does reaction videos, but she makes it more of a discussion. She usually talks beforehand on what she expects to see and how excited and interested she is to see the video, pauses it two or three times (if not more) to fully explain her emotions and such, and talks about it afterwards and gives it praise and criticism, as well as talking about how it did or did not live up to her expectations. And she has a very expressive face, so she can nail reaction videos.

Seriously, this is the one that perplexes me the most. I've gone on youtube and seen a video title that sounds interesting to me and then I open it, and it's someone reacting to what I thought I was gonna watch. So stupid. Like, I don't want to watch you sit there and watch what I actually want to watch. And it's never good input and reaction, it's always just stupid comments and laughs thrown in cause they can't just sit there and do nothing. I immediately turn it off ever single time. I'll never understand that.
Some reaction channels are quite good, the ones that actually make comments during the videos and discuss them afterwards. Blindwave are really great for that.
Then you have cunts like Tyrone Magnus who for some reason has nearly 1million subscribers even though he does absolutely nothing.
Reaction channels are the absolute worst. After watching the Broly Abridged video from TFS, I noticed a lineup of reaction videos for it, all about a minute longer than the original, and all with at least half the views. I watched a couple just to see exactly why people watch these channels, and none of them contributed anything interesting at all. They were all monetized, though.
These people are getting paid to repost. What the fuck.
Also when people take a video and just do a voice over explaining what happened. They don't even edit their own videos into said video, it's just a voice over, that fucking pisses me off. Those assholes who put a shot of the video on the thumb nail and it's just 2 people talking about it pisses me right off.

That happens a ton with those fail/funny/whatever video compilations that are like 10-20 minutes long. I watched one where it had the watermark of a couple different channels (so the "middle" poster compiled multiple compilations), and then the "final" poster forgot to remove the outros from each section of their compiled compilation lol
This happened to some kid who just made scenes with dinosaurs and flew around a POV of his pteradactyl toy flying over them. Got popular of reddit a while ago and people started ripping and reposting the videos so he said he was going to stop doing them
There is this youtuber in France called mathpodcast who was copying an American youtuber. He would steal the jokes, the writing, and just reshoot the thing, then upload it as his own creation and not even mention the original creator. One day some people noticed, and this story (combined with the very weak defense from mathpodcast, as well as some other shitty or pathetic stuff he did) went viral, resulting in the guy getting lynched by the French youtube community. It was kind of funny.
It's also monetized on their channel too. You legit have to watch an ad to watch an ad.

I disagree. Having it all in one place is pretty nice in my opinion. Plus I see trailers I wouldn't have seen otherwise (since I don't follow the devs)
You're right, I sometimes do see trailers I would have never seen, but I don't like having them steal all the trailers and reupload them. Maybe a weekly video showing a short clip from major trailers would work? They could either name or show short clips from new trailers, then link to the full video.
The darkest day in a small youtuber's "career" is when they see a channel that uploaded 50%+ of their library to their own channel and had 10+% of their regular viewership on the stolen content. The only reason the copyright claim/takedown system actually kinda sorta works.
Saw this recently. It just seems pathetic. The guy was copying a let's players stuff and putting it on his channel. He can't expect to be running this long term, he has to know he will be shut down, so he is doing it for what? 100-1000 likes?
The one time this is ok to me is comedy / abridged series things that continually get bombarded by bots until taken down. I love the people who keep putting them back up. We know the bots will take it down, but for a short time it is watchable.
lol theres a bot account that keeps doing this to me, i've contacted my network and filed copyright complains about many of the videos but youtube doesn't give a fuck. luckily the videos get like 10 views at best but god damn

Had that happen to one of my videos. Xtreme video stole my paragliding film. I felt strangely honoured!
Happened to my best friend haha. He made a video about making a Lego creeper (way before the Lego Minecraft sets were a thing) and it got over a million views which is way more than his other vids considering he had 2,500 ~ subs. He got a lot of trolls in the comments and people IRL mentioning it to him as his channel was what everyone knew him for so he removed the video and when we searched it up for a joke way later we found some guy ripped the video and all the videos are just stolen for various channels.
A long time ago, a youtuber named Raw Instinct was called out by a youtuber named iFlyillini for taking the concepts of his videos and Tmartn's videos (this was during the call of duty days) and copy them almost scene for scene. He went into hiding and didn't come out until after iFlyillini was caught masturbating on Chaturbate to pay his bills. It was really scummy.
Popular Counter strike YouTuber McSkillet has some of his content stolen by other channels. They will literally take parts of his videos and edit them into their own without giving credit.
I dunno, I agree that it's kinda shitty to do, but I always appreciate when someone takes the 500 10-minute videos some channel puts up of a let's play, plays the intro for the first part, plays the outro for the last part, then clips all the other episodes together into one big multi-hour video

I first heard of this on a Quora thread about innovative ways to make money. People will make dozens or hundreds of reddit accounts, steal breaking news videos from OPs, repost, and then vote themselves to the front page of reddit with their shell accounts. The AdWords pay them.

That happened to me with a small side-project kind of channel I had (please don't bother asking, all I did was make audio spectrums of songs with the artist's permission). All I did when I saw it pop up in my recommended (yes, my very own video on a different channel) was flag it and start a copyright dispute. I ended up winning and the video was taken down in a matter of a day.
A few days later I was sent an email by the guy who ripped my video begging for the dispute to be closed - basically, he wanted me to unflag it and he would take it down from his channel. I understood why he wanted this so his channel didn't have any flags preventing him from making money, so I let him off and warned him that if I saw him copy another video from any channel I would flag it. He stopped uploading after that.
There's this Louis CK channel that has nice cartoon drawings of him and his bits, but it's basically trying to rip off all his audio content.

It happened about a year ago on France.
The french youtuber Mathpodcast now called MATH had stolen many videos from Matoki or Motoki, something like that (which an american youtuber) and just translates it with no source or anything, he also asked to the admin of a 200 000 likes facebook page to make him an admin so he could post things and tall about the page in his videos, the admin accepted but only a few minutes after, he banned every staff member, leaving him as the only owner of the facebook page.For some reason this guy hasn't stop making videos lmao

This really pisses me off because I watch Youtube on my Wii U/PS3 and those interfaces make it a lot harder to tell reuploads from the real stuff on a glance. I've accidentally ended up watching the opening ad for stolen videos multiple times, even though I try to be careful, because they show up really high in a search. Normally you wouldn't expect the first hit in a search to be a reupload, but it happens way more often than it should. >:(

This. Some guy uploaded my hard work on his channel, just like that, with his watermark on, no less. Luckily he did remove it after some members of my local reddit community commented on his channel.
I fucking hate 'compilation videos' where someone has stuffed a whole bunch of peoples' work into one video and rarely give any credit to the original artists.
As somebody who watches videos both in English and in German, I've noticed that a lot. Some "smaller" German youtubers will just straight up remake an English video. Word for word, they're not even subtle about it.
Adam Saleh is a YouTuber notorious for faking videos. This is typical of YouTubers and wouldn't be a huge deal if not for the nature of his faked "social experiments."
In the past he's been caught out faking a video where he and his friend are searched by a police officer because they are wearing Muslim worship outfits. The officer was of course a paid actor.
More recently released a video claiming to have been kicked off an airplane for speaking Arabic. Several witnesses on the plane later confirmed he had been causing a scene with the aim of getting a reaction from passengers for a video. When he was removed he turned the situation on the airline, Delta.
Attempting to incite racial tension for views and attention, pretty pathetic.
Joey Salads does this shit too but against black people most of the time. He literally faked multiple experiments making them look bad and also making himself look like a victim for being a white trump supporter.
Even from Muslims, it's a case of 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf'. Due to so many of his previous antics, when that happened, a number of well known personalities I follow on Facebook basically said 'Lets see what actually happens before reacting'.
Everyone is tired of his crap.

The dude that got himself kicked off of a Delta flight just so he could pretend that he was kicked off for speaking Arabic. That human piece of trash deserves all of the bad karma coming his way.
A few weeks later he did a view of himself "being smuggled in a suitcase" on a TigerAir flight, which TigerAir immediately debunked (he's too heavy to get past the weigh-in, he couldn't have survived in the depressurised luggage compartment, and they have footage of him boarding the flight).

Not so much depressurized as no oxygen is being actively pumped in and it's below freezing. Obviously, it will still be pressurized because the you need to pressurize the entire tube of the plane or it'd get crushed.
the time between being in the sky and landing. How could all those toiletries and clothes thaw out that fast. Also, why is medication meant to go in the hold?
How often do you open your bag the moment they are off the conveyer? Never. Most people take hours before their bags are unpacked, and even then, they are often still cold. Besides, many things like shampoo are already semi solid, and have a much lower freezing point then water. They do get cold, but never freeze.
If they had experienced -30 degrees for hours, I'm pretty sure they'd be at least cold/damp by the time I got home/destination and unpacked, which takes less than an hour where i am at the moment. I personally think they just say its so cold so people don't try to smuggle on there.
That's possible, I don't work for an airline. Although, there definitely are different luggage departments based on planes. They might have meant the plane that youtuber went on had a unheated luggage department due to low price, destination, etc. Rather than making a general statement about all planes.
flagsfly ยท 8 points ยท Posted at 22:14:47 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Hmmm, actually seems like I was wrong. While the holds aren't heated, bleed air that gets routed to the cabin gets sent to the cargo hold afterwards. A cursory Google search reveals most planes keep the temperature above the single digits, Celsius. So it's cold, but not that cold. Of course, depending on the plane your luggage could travel by itself or in containers, so that's also a factor.
Different compartments can be maintained at different temperatures, but generally your luggage is not getting shoved in the heated compartment specifically. Pets and other live cargo get that treatment.
I think when I was thinking of below freezing, I was thinking of the kids who stowed away in the wheel well of the aircraft.

of courne oxygen is pumped in, its just normal air. How do you think pets survive?
Pets are usually in a special compartment and some planes have fully climate controlled cargo holds, but the plane he supposedly smuggle himself on didn't.
Had he actually done it he would of frozen to death at 30,000 ft.
Not true at all. Usually the front compartment is pressurized and heated like the cabin. It's where all animals go so if he go out into the front aft he could probably survive. But bags rarely go into the front unless they're connecting bags or if the plane has a ton of bags since the back usually gets them all due to load distribution.
I was a ramp rat so I have a good understanding of luggage on planes.

Current ramp rat, most mainline 737-700/600's front holds aren't even heated, the avionic electronics provide the heat. Not sure about the 737-800s though.
Our entire fleet of 37-6/7/8's front holds were heated. At least that is how it's written in our training manuals explaining everything and why animals have to be in the front and what not.
For those considering lighting fires in the cargo compartment to stay warm, Google Halon gas (the gas used in the suppression system) and find out why that's a dreadful idea
I mean, hearing the fire suppression start up if you know it's Halon-based would also fill you with dread I guess :P But then if you knew that, you're a muppet for lighting the fire in the first place
How comes our clothes aren't frozen, or even cold/wet, then? It takes me a day to defrost a chicken breast but apparently 20kg of luggage only takes 10 mins?
flagsfly ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:17:16 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yep. I was wrong. Bleed air goes from the cabin to the holds generally and there are vents to equalize pressure. Not climate controlled, so it'll be cold, but otherwise survivable.
I was thinking about the people who survived in wheel wells when I wrote it and got it confused.
The pressure difference is less than a single atmosphere. You exert more force on your bottles and sealed containers with a gentle squeeze of your hand than they experience in a depressurized luggage compartment. The idea that things just explode in depressurized environments is more Hollywood than reality.
Unless your container is already pressurized to the point that it is about to burst, a <1atm difference isn't going to hurt it.
I'm fairly certain that luggage compatments in commericial jets are pressurised. All fo the fuselage is apart from where the landing gear sits obviously.
Re-read my comment slowly. It's mainly heated for live cargo. The second sentence does not necessarily relate to the first one, it was just an addition.
Actually the vast majority of cargo compartments on commercial passenger planes are pressurised because it's not very feasible to only pressurise half the fuselage. About the only cargo holds that wouldn't be are the ones that are behind the aft pressure bulkhead. And I think Fairchild makes a plane that has a nose cargo compartment, which likewise isn't pressurised since it's fore of the pressure bulkheads.
But otherwise the entire fuselage is pressurised because otherwise when you get to altitude the cabin is gonna drop into the cargo compartment from the pressure differential. (This has actually caused crashes when a tear in the cargo half of the aircraft skin caused the cargo hold to rapidly depressurise. The higher pressure in the cabin forced the cabin floor into the hold, severing controls to the rear flight surfaces. Modern aircraft generally have panels in the floor between passenger and cargo areas to prevent such a thing from occurring these days.)
Now, temperature is likely where the problem is. Because generally heating the cargo holds is optional. You have to pressurise them, but why spend the extra fuel to heat that air if you don't need to? If your cargo manifest doesn't state that there will be live animals or other temperature sensitive cargo in the holds, you're probably gonna switch the heating off. Which would cause issues for anyone in the cargo hold.
But honestly, even that's not an issue because there's no way a human being would make it into the hold in a piece of luggage. For one thing, the weight. You'd have a massively overweight bag, which would certainly raise enough questions that the bag would be flagged for extra screening if it got past check-in. Add in the scanning that checked luggage goes through, and the conveyor belt system most airports have for sorting checked bags (look up a video of one of the really complex big airport ones) that would put a world of hurt on anyone inside a bag... and not to mention that baggage handlers are not gentle with the bags by any means... yeah, good luck getting on a plane as checked luggage.
Yep, my bad (I have learned a lot about baggage compartments today!), it was the temperature rather than the pressure that they said would've killed him.

Yes, culture was a bad word, however the Arabic region describes a specific subset of countries just like The Christian region or the Slavic region. Also, the whole "all Arabic cultures are different" is true, however I used it as a general term encompassing all people coming from Arabic countries.

You're 100% right on everything you said except that:
Arabic cultureย refers to the culture in the countries in which the official language is Arabic (although the Arabic language is, in some such countries, a minority), and the west officials and scholars used to call them "Arab countries" ofย Western Asiaย andย North Africa, fromย Moroccoย to theย Arabian Sea. Language, literature, gastronomy, art, architecture, music, spirituality, philosophy, mysticism (etc.) are all part of the cultural heritage of theย pan-Arabย world.
As for whether people use the term in real life, I have heard it a few times.

Wa alaikum salaam. I think there are too many differences between each country (or even each tribe) to say "Arabic culture" but it all depends on what you compare it with. You could say Arab culture vs. Western culture for example, like you might say black culture vs. white culture.
At the end of the day it's just words. If people don't understand the difference between each country that's okay. Most likely they will never have to know the difference.
I've always thought of the Arab World as analogous to Latin America. A Bolivian and a Dominican are going to have completely different cultures and cuisines and even different strains of the Spanish language and different racially as well but they still belong to the blanket Latino culture. Likewise a Moroccan and a Kuwaiti are extremely different but still Arab.

When he was kicked he evidently actually shouted Arabic stuff a few times.

Hey man! No need to shit on the plane. The plane didn't do anything wrong. Apologize to it. Call it a big and well-built plane instead of crummy and little.
The real reason he and his buddy got kicked off the flight was because they were being loud and disrespectful to other passengers. A lady did an interview about how they were acting and she said she asked them to not be so disruptive or something and then they started yelling at her. I just can't believe they had the audacity to make up all that bs they did in their follow up video. Real faith-in-humanity ruining crap right there.

Adam Saleh
The thing that annoys me is that that video is still making the rounds of facebook, with people still supporting him and saying very abusive things towards the airline and other passengers. He is taking away from real victims and fueling more anger for no reason. Such a dick.
Ultimately the worst thing is that those who do this, absolutely make shit even worse for the legitimate people that this does happen to.
Occasionally a person does get kicked off a plane for racist/xenophobic reasons. I recall a news article about a man who sent texts in Arabic or said a prayer prior got kicked off. The 'pranksters' just make people doubt the legitimate ones.
I remember refusing to post it on my timeline and responding to a few friends pointing out it could be fake and getting called out as being a racist apologist.
Yet when it was proven to be fake there was zero condemnation or people posting about it being fake and trying to be more careful what they share. It's just galling because for the most part they're reasonably intelligent people who should know better than to share every BS post they see.
It's the age where you share reactionary news articles/videos on social media and post some long rant about how you don't condone whatever. It's so fucking ridiculois how people try so hard to act like they're "cultured" or "politcally informed" that they do no further research.

It is most likely fake but there is no definitive proof Link
yeah I see... they interviewed people on the flight one of the passenger's corroborates his account. I believe it, worse stuff has happened on the planes and people are very tense to begin with. Delta didn't accuse him of any wrong-doing and paid for his other flight, if he had actually done something wrong he'd be out on his ass.
But.. I could easily see an alternate version where this guy was trying to provoke people by speaking loudly maybe even yelling and drawing lot of attention. And then the passenger lynchmob got up in arms. God his face is so punchable.
Chris Ashford, 47, who was aboard the plane after a layover in London, said he believed that the woman had โoverreacted.โ
โShe heard somebody speaking in Arabic and assumed the worst,โ he said.
He added that while he thought Delta had acted in the interest of some of its passengers, โI do think it was heavy-handed, kicking the guy off the plane and then removing his bags.โ
The Rev. Karen Georgia Thompson, 51, was also on the plane. Although she said she could not judge the airlineโs actions because she had only witnessed some of the disruption, Ms. Thompson did say that both parties should have been removed.
โIf youโre going to investigate, how are you going to investigate one side of an altercation?โ she asked.

You know there is a certain misogynistic undertone to a lot of these white knight threads where people seem to never consider that the female is a person who makes her own decisions. Ironic really.
It's amazing how people are so committed to the "woman = always victim" narrative, that even in a comment where someone is saying the woman made her own choices, they still can't help but paint the woman as a victim.
It'd be astonishing if it wasn't so widespread and frequent.

Though there may be plenty of toe-rags that do this there are many of us who don't. There are plenty of CGP Greys and Captain Disullusions and Kurzgesagt and TotalBiscuits out there who try to just create interesting content and/or protect the consumer without trying to drink the corporate cool-aid.
I've received 100+ emails from the aforementioned businesses, trying to get me to hawk some product, website or mobile app for large sums of money. All of them laughed at and binned because some of us are trying to create videos in the spirit of what Youtube was originally.
Please don't paint us with the same brush.

not sure if your serious or not but there was a minute where you had chicks like this all over. it is what it is, and no clue if twitch finally cleaned it up. I haven't really gone there since they started branching out from just gamer streaming, but you can usually tell if the girl is there to game.. or there to have a game in the back ground while she goes through 5 outfit changes that progressively show off more and more of her tits.
Did you for a second really think that was his "teacher"?

Dude whored out his girlfriend and forced her to strip on cam, she got a ton of rapey tweets and he refused to do anything about it so the rumor is she dumped his ass. He's a shithead
JMX is literally the worst for this. He's got a whole strip fifa playlist on his channel. His actual content is horrendous and he's been living of those strip videos.
I agree with your points, but the Mighty Cup is actually pretty rad. You could "knock it over" if you put all your strength into it, but it's actually pretty stable. You could not do it by accident.
Agreed. I was amazed at how strong the suction was on it. It does a piss poor job of insulating the drink though. So it got tossed in the cupboard with all my other drink containers.

Bought it months before it got popular to review on YouTube. Found it during its infancy. But yes, yes I am a consumerist pleb on many many things. No ragrets.
This is why I love /u/SovietWomble's videos and streams. While I haven't seen the haut nudes he promised to show everyone, he is very moral in this regard. He will just utterly trash talk companies and youtubers like this in entire rants.
Or he is moral while he isn't committing war crimes by mowing down crowds of retreating enemies stuck in a dead end or continuing to shake the highly militarized bees nest that are his neighbors just for his own sex slave.
That was also my face when that cow became an idiot savant after getting domed. Rim World is fookin' lit like that yo. (In case I was vague, I'm referring to the sex slave you gotten during the spice world colony.)
You still didn't say anything about the war crimes, Womble. Don't try to walk around it.
Kinda off topic but I saw the mighty mug in a store and it actually works, I couldn't knock it over even though I hit it pretty hard lol, it was pretty cool
Side note on the mighty mug, they're actually surprisingly difficult to tip over. Where I work customers can bring in their own cups for us to fill with coffee. I've experienced a few of these mugs and if you want to pick it up, you have to pull straight up. Otherwise, that fucker isn't going anywhere.
So if the lid's off you can knock it hard enough that liquid will come out (it's pretty easy actually). But good luck knocking it over.

Does anyone have a link to the video where they were on a TV talk show discussing one of those untippable mugs and the lady on the show just smacked it over and off the table? I believe I saw it on /r/unexpectedthuglife or maybe it was /r/youtubehaiku
They are mildly difficult to knock over normally. If it's the same clip I'm thinking of, the host hit it in a weird way to purposely knock it over, I have one and have actually bumped it before without it tipping.
A lot of gamers basically whore out their girlfriends, heres this Fifa guy who nobody gave a shit about before he started stripping his girlfriend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfhJvmucikg
Everything these days is a "challenge". I am actually getting tired of the very word. The Beanboozled "Challenge". The cinnamon "challenge". The Kylie Jenner lip "challenge"...seriously, some of them are just stupid, and some of them are dangerous. If you are dumb enough to attempt a dangerous one, then great. Take yourself out of the gene pool. I'm going tell everyone to go participate the "defenestrate yourself challenge".

Anything can be a challenge if you're dumb enough.
And I love how hard they tried to make it seem like it wouldn't spill to make sure they advertised it right. One of the FaZe Clan members, I think FaZe Rug, had the thumbnail set up with a baseball bat looking like her was gonna hit it with all his might. In the actual video, however, each time he did a full wind up for the bat, he swung it slow and hit it incredibly soft, and so many other YouTubes did the same thing, barely touching the cup.
I've used it, it's actually surprisingly strong. I tried tipping it over really hard in the store and actually started moving the shelf it was on (the individual shelf, not the entire rack, that would have been crazy).
Your teacher, yeah right. I've seen my high school teachers since I've graduated. They buy groceries form me, ask why I'm still in this town, and go along their merry way. If that was really your teacher, wouldn't you at least make your bed?

A lot of gamers basically whore out their girlfriends,
Even better are the ones who whore out their sisters for views. that guy who titled his video "MY SISTER NUDE!!1!(not clickbait)", or something, and photoshopped his younger sister's clothes off in the thumbnail.
You know whats amazing, in that first video, the top comment said something like "Watch the video quickly before he makes it pricate again! <insert link to video here>"
In curiosity, i clicked on it, it was a video claiming to teach the "secrets of gambling" and how to make easy 100,000 ยฃ.
There's a watch guy that does this. Reviews watches, knows that people will want to buy the watch he owns, sells for a premium. Anything that guy touches turns into gold, because his fanboys love him. I assume he's being sent free watches, straps all the time because he's got 80,000 subs, but never says so. Whore.

Actually, they legally have to say when it's a paid promotion. Unbox Therapy does say when he was in contact with the company and when it's a paid promotion. People who have tried to get away with not saying when they were paid get in huge trouble. If you look at Unbox Therapy, you'll see he's always been about trying to show the coolest gadgets and items. Just here to inform.

Pretty sure in the UK you have to disclose that you're being sponsored
Can I ask why this angers you? Why don't you just go "ehh" and move on? Lol I can't imagine being annoyed by someone "whoring out" their girlfriend for views, people like sexy things, you're not forced to click
My store used to sell those, and we had displays out. As long as you lifted straight up, they came off without a problem, but they were remarkably good at holding on instead of tipping. I shifted the shelf it was on while trying to tip it over a few times.
You could still tip it, but it took considerable effort to do so intentionally.
To be fair, most people who review things for a living either get paid for it or receive the product for free, it's really just part of the business. I'm cautious of people who only give positive reviews of things. That either means one of two things: they only review things because they get paid, OR they pick really good things to review / don't post reviews of things they don't like. The second option really isn't too bad, but that usually isn't the thinking.
I kind of like unbox therapy tho. Even tho I know he has to be making an ass ton of money for doing relatively nothing. Idk it's not logical but it's kinda relaxing just seeing all these different products.
To be fair tho, Ive like infomercials since I was a kid.
I got a Mighty Mug as a gift 2-3 years ago and it's great. It's still in perfect condition and everyone is impressed by it when they see it work. I use it everyday, it's the best gift I've got in a long while.
Jesus H Tapdancing Christ the various fidget spinners.
Been reading /r/EDC lately and some of the posters there have unholy amounts of money to throw away on spinners. Most seem to run the $200-300 range, but then there's the rare $600 spinner.
Fucking 600 dollars. On a bit of brass/whatever and a roller bearing.
Tho that kinda pales in comparison to the $1275 pocket flashlight that runs off of an N cell(slightly smaller than a AAA)
Literally every YouTuber was on that at the same time because the smart asses paid a shit ton
To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if all it costs these companies is the products themselves with no extra payment.
Just look at how desperate these kind of channels are to get youtube money; clickbait (including outright lies in the title), misleading thumbnails, stretching the video with pointless talking or struggling to open simple packaging to get more watch minutes (the stat that youtube really cares about, it's not about views or likes at all).

Remember the mighty mug? The mug that won't spill. Literally every YouTuber was on that at the same time because the smart asses paid a shit ton to a few multimillion subscriber channels and they hid the advertisement behind a 'challenge' to spill the cup.
To play Devil's Advocate, it may not be the case that they were paid to review it.
For argument's sake, if they weren't paid, what potentially happened was that the Mighty Mug PR people went mental and just sent out huge amounts of the things to all the YouTubers, all at once.
Combine that with the burden of finding YT content to produce isn't always easy, and there's huge pressure on YouTubers to publish vids to a schedule without fail. In fact, if you watch any of the "how to develop a channel" guides, one of the biggest tenets is have a publishing schedule and NEVER miss it. If you're struggling to find something, and you get this mug in the mail, that's an easy win. Combine it with the big boys doing videos on that same thing, and it's even more attractive to smash out a two minute video that looks like a ridiculous ad made by ADHD-riddled monkeys.
That said, it's certainly possible that the big ones were paid, but they got sent something free and gimmicky, so that makes an easy video, with competition and the fear of losing subscribers, it's no wonder huge amounts of videos were produced without even needing the incentive of cash.

A popular YouTuber pulled the dress of his girlfriend / wife showing her breasts on camera (although blurred it in video). I was just trying out his channel and that was the moment I lost all respect for him (I didn't like his channel anyway).
EDIT: relating to YouTubers whoring themselves, similarly they don't disclose the fact they received money to review it so they don't look shitty.
I'm still amused at the story of Microsoft paying dunkey to make some videos for a few of their Summer of Arcade games. He ended up calling the games out for being shitty and then Microsoft refused to pay him.

I feel like everyone knows or should know that unbox therapy is just paid promotion and form their opinion of the product no based on how he acts but on what the product actually looks like or just ignore the channel.
I know they're probably actually for disabled or those with handicaps but, like everything, its marketed towards "careless" and clumsy people
regardless, my mom bought one awhile back and I used it when I went over there last thinking I was immune to knocking things over
just to accidentally punt it across the room when I tried to move my legs

I don't even remember why, he just took things out of boxes, I never wanted to buy any of the shit.
I've always wondered about the youtuber Wranglerstar.
He seems to get an awfull lot of "presents" from subscribers that seems like blatant product placement, but at the same time, I'm unsure wether he is able to pull off getting paid to review the products?

Never heard of him until now but it sounds like if he'd just kept quiet about it, it wouldn't have been a thing.
Before he died, my grandad spent his last few years in a wheelchair because he couldn't hobble more than 10m without collapsing, but he would momentarily stand up to reach high up things.
you hear a girl on Skype (I think girlfriend) see this then gasp then immediately tries to distract people with a "my cute dog" story. Always makes me laugh

The worst part is you can see his girlfriend react in horror. I am sure they were both living decently off that twitch money.
They were both legitimately terrible people. He was verbally abusive to her on stream, she would pander to subs/viewers for money to help with his wheelchair fund and shit like that, they had subs come and move his apartment cause he's a cripple, it went on and on.
What's even weirder is how brainwashed some of his viewers were, supporting him right up to the ban even after he walked.

Aw yes...I knew that fucker irl, unfortunately. Just a handful of the shit he pulled: he faked his sisters suicide, pretended to have a heart condition and seizures, by the age of 20-21 had not only been a Marine, but also graduated Culinary school, also he was a pro surfer as a teen and skateboarder. He said his mother had severely abused him, and left him in the care of a family member...but he also grew up with his mom in Hawaii, oh wait no! He lived in squalor in Canada, and that's how he also became a pro snowboarder
....shit you not! He told various stories to all sorts of people, all these people spoke to one another. Why he didn't just stick to one story I'll never understand, but the majority of people knew he was full of shit, but he was a chill enough dude that most didn't care. The only relationship I knew him to be in was to a very dear person to me, and she was completely bamboozled by her love for him. 5 years of emotional and verbal abuse, and then FINALLY THIS FUCKING VIDEO HAPPENED!!!! This girl FINALLY saw him for the piece of shit that he was, and has moved on to have a very lovely family with an actual Marine.

I'm honestly glad that his ex-gf found someone who cares about her. I always knew she was a nice lady. Whenever I would watch ZilianOP's stream, he would always be mean to her and I would feel bad. I remember reading stories about one of ZilianOP's ex TeamSpeak friends would make her give him head while he was on voice chat. And then when that fiasco happened where he stood up on his chair, she was still defending him and everything.
This is why I believe there is hope for every one to find true love, if a POS like ZilianOP can keep a cute girl like that for 5 years, then anything is possible.

Might as well just go full ham at that point. Start dancing, screaming "Hallelujah!" or "Praise Jesus!". Have some large black ladies in robes come marching in singing some upbeat gospel and clapping their hands. I mean really go all out.
The worst part about the whole thing is if I was a fan, watching that, I'd have probably been completely unfazed by it and never realized that this crippled guy just actually stood up.

ZilianOP? There were gamers that hated him because he was a massive toxic douche, and that was before he was outed as a fraud.
Some wheelchair users can stand/walk a little bit though, and use a chair because it's less painful, less dangerous, or puts less strain on their heart.

You like a streamer that was complicit with a gambling site that was knowingly being operated fraudulently, while knowingly benefited and profited from it.
Don't give a damn if you like her as a streamer or not.
Hey Dingle's a cool person.
That right there shows she's not as "cool" as you think she is.
Yea m0e too, he knew what the roulette would land on. For whatever reason no one gave a fuck for more than a week about it, made no sense, he scammed people as well.
I used to play a game called TFC (team fortress classic) and we were both part of a big community. He was basically the community joke. He would scream in his mic as loud as he could for attention and generally just do stupid stuff, complete idiot.
I remember once I did a 3v3 or something I think, against him and he ACTUALLY cried because he lost so bad. full on tears sobbing over the mic that we must be "cheating" and how he can't kill any of us, or get our flag. hilarious. he can't stand when someone is better than him and he was the absolute best when it comes to raging. He raged so hard at every single thing that ever happened, it was unreal. total tool. He stopped talking to all his 'real' friends too once he started to get famous.
Has to do with Counter Strike GO where a person who ran a website for the game pretended to find his own betting site and won money by betting. He wasn't, it was staged and it came out later that he owned the betting site.
Someone probably has more info than I do, though.

Better yet, he even made a shitty "apology" video shown here where he basically blames his viewers and apologizes for getting caught, complete with a cute South Park "we're sorry" style animal. He took it down once people called him out on his PR bullshit but it was reuploaded a bunch of times.
I know Syndicates at least. He owned a CSGO gambling website. Youtube requires people to say when a video is sponsored, but I think there's a little work a round when it comes to actually owning the source. Regardless, he acted like he "found" the website, and pretended to win big everytime. It encouraged his audience (he's a bigger Minecraft youtuber a bit, so obviously a somewhat younger audience) to go to the website to "win big", when in reality he was likely either rigging the bets, or making it seem as if he only won big.

I think so. But he often streamed going on CSGO Lotto and lost quite a few bets as well. Obviously for his videos he's only selecting the bets where he wins for entertainment purposes. Still a shitty thing though.
Hey hey hey, you threw a lot of speculation into there. As far as we know Tmartn, Syndicate, and JoshOG could be legit, but Tmartn acting like he "found" the website is just wrong.
Syndicate's channel was meant for the more 12+ content, as he himself age-gated most of his videos early on. The way any of those "CSGO I WIN BIG WOW $$$$$$" are obviously edited to only show the positives, as is any video on YouTube made for ethos/pathos. The twitch streams that Syndicate did do, often showed him losing knives and some other rare skins. He even eventually gave up and bought skins off the community market for his "ruby collection" as he called it.
Tl;dr Yes it is scummy, but it is all speculation, and many stated "facts" are just speculation.
This was PhantomLord and csgoshuffle. Completely different site, completely different story, and PhantomLord was facing a ton of lawsuits from that last I heard of it. When the news broke of it, he deleted all of his social accounts and now lives privately down the street from another guy who streams some times.
The lawsuits are still ongoing in the early stages. Prosyndicate moved back to the UK, so it'll be harder for US lawyers to get to him, but Tmartin is still in the thick of it. I don't know about JoshOG. Tmartin has fallen off YouTube, but Josh still streams regularly and seems to have avoided the negative publicity backlash.
Syndicate lives in both the U.S. and uk and publicly spoke about it on the optic gaming podcast, stating that many of the lawsuits were dropped due to lack of evidence/proof and lack of a good cause
I like Syndicate, he always seemed like a chill dude, but he never mentioned anything about it, is it possible he just paid fines and agreed to leave america as a bargain?
He still lives in the usa, no punishment came about, he talks a out it on the optic podcast. Most lawsuits were void due to no proof or lack of real argument
Ah, I figured he threw money at the problem and it went away, I stopped watchig his videos years ago but still enjoy him. Tempted to rewatch some if his shit cuz he brought me alot of entertainment and made me love CoD Zombies and Minecraft (im 25)
Yeah he stopped releasing gaming content for a while but he's getting back into it, personally I really like his vlogs so I watch most of them. I recommend them if you haven't seen them before, fairly entertaining and relatively short

And they also show his good side. He seems like a really chill dude but if you only know about him because of the scandal he sounds like an asshole. Obviously it was still a stupid thing to be involved with, but he's nowhere near as bad as he may seem.
Didn't he once con money out of someone and when that dude asked for his money, Prosyndicate went onto Keemstar's stream and spent three hours talking about how they should doxx the dude's personal info?
Yeah, Prosyndicate is a huge piece of shit. Fuck that guy. Speaking of syndicates, PSISyndicate is also a piece of shit and I hope their careers go down in flames. They don't deserve what they have.

IIRC, the owner of the Minecraft server he played on with other Youtubers asked an animator to make a little animation for their channels. Syndicate didn't wasn't told properly what the deals were so he just uploaded the file he was given as he thought he was supposed to do.
The animator wanted the youtubers to put his name in the description which Syndicate didn't do. The animator then tweeted Syndicate saying he should change his description or else he'll charge him. With 2M followers he gets a lot of tweets so he didn't see that. The animator then charged him money which Syndicate refused to pay as those were not the terms the server owner and the animator agreed on.
The animator made a video about it (showing only his side of the story, which I think is very unfair), and it gained a lot of traction. Keemstar wanted arrange a conversation between the two but because he is a massive cunt he pushed Syndicate to basically agree with Keemstar to doxx the animator. Then a pathetic shouting match between Syndicate and the animator ensued.
I can see where Syndicate was coming from, but the money the animator asked for was chump change for him. It would have been a much better idea to just say sorry and pay up.
He literally stole money from people. How is that "not as bad as it seems"? He owned a gambling site, he falsified information and tricked people into spending money on the site where he rigged outcomes. If that's not bad I'm not sure what is.
Platfoot ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 15:04:04 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Probably poor word choice on my part, I made it sound like it was nothing. But what you're saying is not exactly true either. He didn't steal money, and we don't know whether he rigged the outcomes. And not disclosing information is not the same as falsifying information.
There's another Syndicate out there, I think a Twitch streamer or something? This one is Prosyndicate, and he made clickbaity CSGOLotto videos on Youtube like Tmartin.
There's a PSiSyndicate too. He wasn't involved in CSGO Lotto but he did do something super similar where he took a bunch of money from a CSGO gambling site to promote it and never disclosed it.
He publicly revealed it after CSGOLotto in order to cover his ass. I remember TotalBiscuit publicly calling him a piece of shit in the comments.
If I'm not mistaken he owned a part of it as well. He also filmed some videos for it and streamed him playing on the site. Not disclosing ownership not good. Gambling on your own casino BIG NO GO, but Tmartn and syndicate also played on it too. What makes it even worse is that Tmartn was logged into one of the sites bots while streaming once.
Yeah I wonder if this is part of why he doesn't play CSGo anymore; trying to distance himself from it all.
Josh is definitely a churner for followers/subscribers etc. with the amount of giveaways he does. He has like 250k twitter followers, which is disproportionally large to his actual community. Driving people to Lotto, which he has a stake in, checks out with that whole vibe.
For what it's worth, Josh's explanation was that he was Lotto's first sponsorship, and that as the first sponsor he was given equity (as he says is common in the industry). He was listed as the "Secretary" of Lotto because he did have equity, and they had to give him some title (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXx5lQRbaIU).
I will say that I'm not sure what Josh did is the same as what Syndicate did. If you watch h3h3's video, Syndicate is just straight deceiving people about "finding" the site, and then hams it all up with his reactions and the amount of promotion. He says that he was offered a sponsorship. This despite the fact that he was listed as the VP, and apparently co-founded the site. Josh's explanation (equity as a concession to him because he's the first sponsorship) is a different than Syndicate's being a founder. And AFAIK, Josh doesn't say that he just happened to "find" the site. I don't think he said anything about it. Not deception like Syndicate.
The questions re. Josh are 1) should he have been allowed to gamble on a website he partially owned? The implication is that they could have been rigging it in his favor. h3h3 seems to imply there are laws against this. But that's not what we're cared about, we care about the ethical implications. And 2) if he was allowed, should he have disclosed his ownership?
Just my opinion, but the disclosure in itself seems unreasonable to expect. Non-lawyers don't think about disclosures. But a layperson should think that they shouldn't be gambling on a site they control/own because they have control over the odds. And a layperson should reason that if they do do that, and then post videos about it encouraging others to do it as well, the safe thing would be to tell people they own it.
And let's not get confused on the syndicates here... the one I was subbed to (cause I'm still confused on which channel is what) was not involved in the csgo betting website.
Sometimes I wonder how their parents would feel about their children doing that, and then I realize that their parents were also probably pieces of shit.
To be fair joshog only owned shares and didnt disclose it. He had no access to the back end and he was approached by the owners after they seen the publicity his channel was bringing them. He definitely lost a fuck ton, if he was cheating, he was bad at it.
Yeah it does for sure, I'm just saying it doesn't seem to be anywhere near as severe as what some of the others did. Also, it's very possible he had no idea he even had to. Yeah that's his responsibility to know, but kids fuck up.

What are you talking about? Syndicate was implicated as well.
True, but he doesn't receive the same amount of community backlash as tmartn because he shut up and tried to let it blow over instead of posting a fake apology video.
not trying to blindly defend moe because I know he's not the best guy but wasn't his situation different entirely? the others said they found a gambling site and gambled on it in videos but actually owned it, moe just acted like he won a lot of money out of luck while actually knowing the rolls before hand or something along those lines.
SRFG1595 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 03:05:03 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
You're correct but that is still very shady. He still manipulated people into wasting their (or, more likely, their parent's) money and presumably was paid himself for his service. It's not as bad as actually starting the company but it still should've ruined his streaming career.
The main comment was about csgolotto so I talked about that. But yeah, moE and phantoml0rd shouldn't be off the hook either. I don't like any of them but at least moE came out and spoke out about it, even if it was only because they wouldn't pay him more.
He absolutely did something illegal...tort law clearly states you can not enter any contract before the age of 18...but then....you have the conundrum of a credit card....the parents are liable. But the site should be shut down.
When I was 15 or so and really into COD, I always watched Tmartn's videos. He seemed like a super genuine guy who was just doing it for the fun, so to hear about the whole betting scandal thing made me sad. I guess YouTube has gone from being a hobby to being a career for many people which is bringing out the worst in them.
The jumps and spots series from black ops was my shit back in the day. Maybe it's the old cliche that fame changes you (if you count YouTube fame as fame)
Video Title: Kate Upton in New Call of Duty Game!!!
"Hey guys TMarTn here - just wanted to do a 30 minute video and mention somewhere in minute 20:00 that I think it would be cool if Kate Upton was in Call of Duty."
Tmartn advertised this CS;GO betting site called CS;GO lotto that he "found" then it turned out he actually owned the website which I'm pretty sure resulted in legal trouble.

A youtuber local to where I grew up got done for that recently and he paid almost ยฃ100k (the other dude in the case was fined ~ยฃ175k) I had a look at his channel - the amount of fans that still believe that he did nothing wrong is kinda crazy!
Nepenthez lol Can't believe the fans let him get away with it. He hid his apology within a video of his without even mentioning that he was apologising in the title.
Absolute coward. He still thinks he did nothing wrong and yet says 'however the law states that i was in the wrong'
I thought he was a decent youtuber, did his own thing his own way but he's an arrogant piece of shit imo

I'll have you know, we had a murder a couple of years ago!
I've never heard about him cheating in public servers. A lot of his DayZ videos, for example, have clearly been set up and had things spawned in, but his videos are presented in a cinematic style where capturing footage even similar to the level he does would take huge amounts of time. His videos are for entertainment and stories rather than for pure gameplay, so I don't mind that.
Where and when has he been caught cheating?

oh might be my mistake too. I think he deleted all his csgo videos though. My point is that some clips in his videos really seem like wallhack and aimbot.
If I'm not mistaken he got caught using a bhop script in CSGO but that's the only thing I remember hearing about.

It was more of the fact he said he had learned to BHop, and then hit about 12 perfectly executed hops in a row, rather than it being just the script as well as him denying it and saying his mouse had an infinite scroll wheel, whenever Launders went over why that was very improbably, and then proved his infinite scroll wheel explanation wrong as well

He blatantly bhop scripted in a video while bragging about how he learned to do it so quickly, then issued a copyright strike on a launders video calling him out on it.
Every one of his videos either uses blatant hacks, has actors or is on some kind of private server. I've heard stories of actual players getting booted by admins after shooting him. He apparently gets very pissed off when people legit kill him for 'ruining his vid'.
You can always tell when he comes across an actual player because it usually jump cuts to a different situation, presumably 30-or-so minutes later.
But still, he doesn't do anything illegal and makes pretty good videos. I just wish he was more honest.

Cheating in multiplayer games to make the video more entertaining is nothing compared to scamming your fans for money. The two don't even compare.
That wasn't the point I was making. I'm saying that people, when they become fans, overlook the grossest misconduct, no matter how obvious.
Webo_ ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 12:33:28 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The reason he 'cheats' (by spawning things like vehicles in) is because his videos aren't just let's plays, they're cinematic and story driven. There's absolutely no way he could make the videos he does by not spawning things in. Even when he does spawn stuff in, it's not on a public server, so it's not like he's getting an unfair advantage over other players.
In the comments they are talking about how harsh the fine was. Like WTF. If anything 90gs is quite lenient

I think what it was it that they had a site where you could gamble on FIFA matches in in-game currency and then at some point it was converted to real money. Also they were enticing minors to gamble, which is illegal in the UK. He took down the videos related to it from his channel a good while ago.

That phrase stuck out to me as possibly the most vile things I have ever seen on YouTube. How he clearly crafted that phrase to pander specifically to kids, his audience, and delivers it with disgusting sincerity.

Hell I'd wager all that attention and hate only added to the grease fire of their youtube careers. There's no such thing as bad publicity. The only real downside I could see is a possible lawsuit being drug out a few years, under Fraud/fair trade and attempting to solicit minors into gambling. But, the 2nd charge likely wouldn't stick because they are betting csgo skins not actual currency.
You want to make it big in entertainment become famous or infamous. Both yield $$.

Hey guys I find a pretty cool site today and I won a pot of a few thousand! Come check it out.
When accused of not disclosing he actually owns the website. How can someone possibly sleep well at night if they deceive their viewer? Proceed to editing every video in the past to "disclose" that he is "sponsored" by the website.
Given the demographic of his viewer (mostly in 14-20), it is despicable to even think about misleading his viewers into gambling activity. Let alone refusing to apologize for what he has done.
was actually really sad once the news that pl was a part of this came out. i actually really enjoyed his league streams and he seemed like (probably still is) a nice fun dude

It really boils my blood that there were literally no reprecussions for any of the people involved, and that they're all going about like nothing happened except they scammed probably tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars off of everyone. This was literally the Panama Papers of the gaming industry and NOTHING happened to anyone. Someone should've at least paid up (looking at you, TmarTn).
Also, I find it funny how TmarTn was caught in such a scandal about 5 years after someone else tried to rip off his YouTube content. I guess you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Ugh, ads are the worst. I use youtube for a lot of stuff. Most recently though I wanted to find out how to blacklist youtube channels as blocking the channel only prevents them from messaging you and they'll still show up in your suggested channels... ofc the video I watched they're like yeah you have to download this app!
Turns out you can say you're not interested in a video by clicking on the 3 dots next to it... after you say you're not interested it'll ask why and you can tell them you're not interested in the channel. goodbye solorenektononly and your clickbait non-highlight videos.

If I remember correctly I think one of the passerby was armed and shot the dude holding the take gun.

There was that one where he kidnapped his friend and threatened him with a gun.
Fairly good acting in that one actually, if you went back in time to before all the prank BS started and showed someone that video, they would think he actually kidnapped the guy.

The jalal brothers pulled this shit. They had a bunch of terrorist pranks where they threw packpacks at people, fake executed people and even kidnapped a guys girlfriend. During one of their pranks, one of the brothers got shot it seems.

Isn't this illegal/not protected speech? Like shouting "fire" in a crowded theater?
Protected speech is only protected when it does not lead to actual physical harm. If a doctor prescribed you some shit med, and you died and your dead self sued the doc, he cannot cite 'freedom of expression'. Freedom of expression has limits.
I wish I could say your comments hurt my feelings or are even relevant to the thread, but I don't think they are. Good luck with your English studies, you seem to have a decent grasp of the language!

Russian guy (or a fake accent) would give an empty briefcase apparently with $100,000 in it and would act like a hitman or something. IIRC it ended up costing him some time in jail.
Serves him right. There have been a lot of pranks on here that have been stupid as well spiders on an arachnophobe, white paint on someone late for work and probably others
I saw one of two kids dressing up as clowns and scaring people in a park from either side of a bridge. They went after a guy who was going for a walk with his kids and he pulled a gun instantly, it was wonderful to see

There was a video on /r/amibeingdetained of a few guys with ARs strapped to their chest walking into a police station because they felt "endangered for their lives by how the cops treated them earlier". Their reasoning was that they were protected by the second amendment. The second the walk in, two cops pull out their hand guns on them screaming at them to get down, and they will shoot if he doesn't. Then like three more cops run in. I wouldn't be sorry if they lost a limb due to being shot right then.
That one just really made me sick. Waking up children in the middle of the night with smoke, parents not in the house, scaring them, and saying it's a public service or "preparedness test."
I remember when pranks were actually funny and at most a bit uncomfortable and/or embarrassing for the victims, and not potentially traumatizing.

I agree with Oliver about pulling a fake gun or something being just plain stupid.
But that backpack one I think is kind of funny. From the way you describe it they throw a backpack in an open window dressed in stereotypically middle eastern clothes.
Obviously the shock from having something thrown in your car is bad but surely a reasonable person wouldn't fear for their life in this situation. Hell, drive off fast enough and you have a free backpack.
To me the line between a prank and someone being a tosser is when the victim has a reasonable expectation of danger to themselves. Inducing a split second of panic is fine, but if after thinking it over for a few seconds the victim should be able realise there is no real danger and laugh about it.
The only way I can see the backpack thing making someone genuinely fear for their safety for more than about 7 seconds is if they're an idiot and can't assess that nothing has exploded so they're probably safe now. Or potentially they believe terrorists run around in full desert gear throwing bombs into cars. In both of those situations the 'prank' actually would make a good social experiment/commentary as the actions of the prankster require ridiculous assumptions to be taken seriously and expose the silly prejudices we all subconsciously hold and make's us more aware of them.
Can't defend pulling a fake gun on someone though. Even after thinking about it a reasonable person would feel endangered and take action. That's a paddlin'.
Do you mean the Jalals? Three brothers pretending to murder one another in the street as, fire fake guns and throw pretend backpack bombs at people.
They pulled one of these pranks on a dad and his young daughter (no older than 5 so probably scarred for life) once and the instincts in that man were insane. Those kids are a fucking disgrace and I hope someone retaliates to the point where they can't eat without a damn tube.

The girl was their cousin or a family friend. It was all faked. They got exposed ages ago on national TV, was hilarious to see them not know what to do or say.
I know there was a group in Australia who uploaded some videos of doing that. The police got involved with it and said they were going to charge the people who made the video. It then turned out that the people making the video had staged all of the interactions, and even contacted the state police department to make sure that it was ok to film the video.
Oh they definitely deserve to get their ass beat. And reported to the FBI for terrorist threats.

Someone should prank them by putting actual explosives in their backpack. Then the law will apply the death penalty on them and maybe the next person will think twice about pulling a prank.
That's horrifying. Both racist and dangerous to others who might panic at the wheel. I'm sure it's dangerous to him too but I don't give a shit about douches like that.

There are even worse videos that aren't prank videos but 'See how horrible black/muslim/immigrants/refugee people are' Where they drive up to people on the street minding their business and spouting racist and derogatory words to them to get them mad and then afterwards they give commentary on how awful and disgusting these kinds of people are and they should all be deported or killed.
These videos are on youtube where children go and view them filling their impressionable and ignorant minds with shit like this. And racists who use these type of videos to defend themselves saying how right they are.
Where did you get that people would think he's going to blow them up? Huh? Are you saying if a Strayan threw a backpack at you, you'd immediately start detoxing every snake venom you had on your person before a plethora of pythons jumped out and bit you?
I know it's [the bad taste prank] obvious, but you did indeed automatically associate Muslim attire with terrorism.
The funny thing is, when they are about to get hurt and say "chill out it's just a prank, the cameras over there!" That would just make me wanna beat them up even more.

I am truly confused how this is not illegal and how these people are not arrested. Making a random innocent person think their life is about to end is NOT fucking funny. Going up to people and pretending to be racist is one thing and definitely disgusting, dressing up as a suicide bomber is fucked up and I truly hope one of those people gets shot one day. What if someone saw a fake suicide bomber and had a heart attack and died? Super funny prank. Even if it IS legal, why the absolute FUCK would you give people more reason to make generalizations about your race?!?? you have NO room to complain about racism if you give white people a reason to do so. Not saying other people of your race don't have room, just saying you're dumb as fuck and I hope someone from your race beats the fuck out of you for making the rest of them look bad.
I'm also pretty sure that's a legit crime. Not 100% though.

My rule of thumb: If you have to explain it's a prank to avoid being attacked, it's not a prank. It's just you being an asshole and trying to justify it.
Some super ultra famous prankster guy did one where he pretended that he was stealing gas out of people's cars in what was clearly a really rough neighborhood... The last one he did he nearly got killed by a group of thugs and then the video cuts to him getting all pissy and whining about how it's no fun anymore and he's done. I've never wanted to punch a guy more in my entire life. Seriously what the hell did he expect to happen?
I fucking hate that shit that is what instantly pisses me off. Like that fucker Markiplier? His friends that he lives with constantly makes those videos CONSTANTLY and Ive only seen their videos on very few occasions but each time I sit here hoping to god they get beat.
I saw this exchange almost word for word somewhere on YouTube and the "prankster" actually complained about it to the camera afterward.
My favourites are the ones where the pranksters actually get their asses beat for their stupid pranks. Like the one where this dude "pretends" to rob someone at an ATM and gets his face kicked in.
You deserve to be shot if you 'prank' people like that. You're messing with a very real survival tactic they possess and next time it's a REAL robbery they could delay because it might be a 'prank' and then get shot
Its really amazing to me how many people will try to hide downright racist comments/actions as "it was just a joke! Learn to laugh! I didnt mean to!"
Its like saying "i didnt mean to drive drunk officer, i just happened to do it! I didnt do anything wrong!"
... no. Youre still a giant fuckbag, even if you didnt mean to be. If you say offensive shit to get a rise out of people, youre an asshole, not a comedian or prankster.

Even worse with SoFlo, he would constantly reupload his videos just for more views to multiple channels. Thankfully his Channels where terminated. Sadly he's still stealing videos and freebooting them on facebook. Even after getting called out by H3H3, he still tries to defend his actions.
The one that upset me the most was some guy who would walk up to black men, make a racist joke, and then would say "relax, it was just a prank" when they got upset.
They always think what they do is harmless, for example there was some Facebook 'prankster' than slapped a stranger with a pizza and told them to calm down but when somebody filmed themselves doing it to him he called the police.
OMG that's hilarious. He called the cops for something he's been doing to other people? What a whiny little bitch. That's the problem with pranks like these it ain't so much fun when someone does it to you

Absolutely. Bullies can never handle a taste of their own medicine. It's cliche - and it's not like in a Very Special Episode where the tiny nerd finds some confidence and uses a stern voice, and suddenly Biff is sorry he was ever mean (in real life that gets poindexter a punch in the face). But if someone just as big or bigger than Biff starts pushing him around in the same way? Biff starts crying like a little bitch, sniffling all the way to teacher's office (or the cops, in this case) every damn time.
It's because the behavior is learned. The ol' cycle of abuse. They learn early, from someone strong in their life, how to be a victim via abuse. At the same time they learn (incorrectly) that the only way to not be a victim is to be an abuser (aka bully). The second someone flips the script though? They're right back to Daddy coming home drunk and calling them a sissy and pushing them around, and the timid little boy mindset that comes with that.
Obviously I'm using a pretty specific metaphor here. But the basic psychology of it is fairly straightforward, and sadly common as all fuck. Mad respect to anyone who comes from an abusive upbringing and rises above this behavior.

Everyone should slap a pizza in his face as a social experiment of course.

Probably wasting police time. The police don't give a shit if someone put pizza on your face. Either that or to separate the two while they took details. They were never gunna arrest the guy filming.

US and Europe in general. In Finland the cops give you a lot of leeway before things actually escalate beyond "are you two numbskulls gonna go separate ways?"
In the beginning when he was filming locally I think he got away with doing shit cause people here are generally quite nice and we get loads of tourists who probably have no idea who he is. Now whenever someone sees him we are all like oh shit avoid.
He filmed a couple of videos with real confrontation (before all the fake stuff) one involved out lab technician from college who is one of the nicest guys you can meet, he just exploded on Jack.
Our tech was our hero after seeing the video.
Oh and fun fact: the guy who through the pizza at Jack (DiscoBoy) I used to do martial arts with. So funny that this is on Reddit haha

Why are you under the impression a guy like that gives half a damn about anyone else in the first place?
The second he sees his prank victim fall to the ground of what seems to be a severe allergic reaction he has two options. Stay and help, or run away. If he stays and helps, then AHA I'm the ultimate prankster and he's been faced! If he runs away, he'll forever be plagued by the thoughts that he might just have killed someone, but he'll never know for sure
So how exactly do you want people to say your username? Literally, it would be: dash I I I dash dash dash dash dash dash dash I I I dash
But, you know, that's kind of a mouthful. So, it's obvious to me that your username is depicting a barbell, so do you want people to call you barbell? Or since you have three weights on each end, of which I am assuming are 45 pound weights, do you want to be known as 315 pound barbell?

I'm also confused as to how to say your name. I first read it as 'the confuser times 2' but now wondering if it should just be 'the confuser x2'. It's all very confusing so I guess your overall purpose is true.
Actually the horizontal line he used is called a hyphen, not a dash, and the name of the vertical line is a pipe. So he's "hyphen pipe pipe pipe hyphen hyphen hyphen hyphen hyphen hyphen hyphen pipe pipe pipe hyphen".

I always figure if most of these were real more of the "pranksters" would have been shot or stabbed by now. I do remember seeing one actually get pistol whipped; that was sort of funny.
Can someone explain that video? Looks like 'pranker' slapped pizza into a guys face, who got annoyed, called the cops, and was then put in the backseat of the cop car while the 'pranker' calls him a baby
Huh, now that's funny. Should be more videos of people doing "pranks" specifically to people who make "prank" videos; particularly if they use one the original video maker used on random people.
I saw this one where people would dress as Tetris bricks, then go assemble themselves across public walkways and block people. I thought it was funny up until one of them "Tetris'd" a lifeguard right into the pool. People could have died while that guard was distracted.

Thing is, they know they'll get their ass kicked, that's what they want so it'll get views (or it's staged with them getting their asses kicked). A real low point for humanity.
I know, I believe that there are people out there that would stage them getting beat up (for real beat up) but it's planned. I can see it being safer that way because its one thing to get beat up or punched in the face but its another then to get put in the hospital or possibly assaulted with weapons.
I agree, however, if you know something will make somebody want to retaliate and you still do it I won't say that person shouldn't act on their anger. You wouldn't walk up to a lion and pull its ear then act surprised when it turns around bites you right?
I agree, however, if you know something will make somebody want to retaliate and you still do it I won't say that person shouldn't act on their anger.
Then we don't agree. I don't think violence is ever an acceptable or justifiable answer to mean words, short of threatening behavior.
You wouldn't walk up to a lion and pull its ear then act surprised when it turns around bites you right?
Of course I wouldn't. But black people aren't lions, they're human beings.
I'm rarely one to hit the racism card. But "I went to the streets and pranked black guys by saying the n-word to make them angry" pranksters are relying on racism for their entertainment. They are suggesting that black people are more likely to become violent. To validate that by saying it's equivalent to pulling a wild animal's ear is pretty uncool.
Let me just be clear: violence is not a justifiable response to words, regardless of what those words are, unless they carry a threat.
So instead of telling people to stop doing things on purpose that they know will make people angry, with the INTENT of making said people angry. You're saying people shouldn't get angry?
This is kindergarten level of morals. "they said mean things to me" is not justification to hit someone. People here don't simply tolerate violence but approve of it given your downvotes. Pretty disgusting...

unless woman attacks first, mostly because they are weaker and might die when they hit the concrete after one punch etc, although i wouldn't try to hit anyone else anyway if I can subdue them otherwise without causing unnecessary bodily harm
but i guess in murica its part of the culture to get upset about anything thats not 100% politically correct and also lawful to murder people if they "insult" you or accidentally stumble on your lawn someshit
The worst racism I've seen is when a YouTuber hired black guys to mess up his Trump car with baseball bats - propagating racism to make money. Someone later posted a pic of the setup where he's right there behind the camera the whole time, shaking hands, and paying them.

Guy puts Trump stickers on car. Real Black people don't attack car because real Black people aren't animals. Guy wants to profit off of the racist as fuck YouTube audience belief that they are. Pays Black people on craigslist to take baseball bats to the Trump car so that racist fucks' ideas about Black people are confirmed. It is racist set it up so Black people look like dangerous criminals when none of them actually took the bait.

This was an example, not a suggestion for how Black people should act. He set the car there, it wasn't attacked, he resorted to craigslist to profit off of confirming shitheads' beliefs.

Well how did that belief originate? No smoke without fire.
There was one where the guy was going up to black guys (specifically) and asking them if they wanted to buy a gun. When they got angry or offended he pulled a water gun out of his pants. One guy pulled an actual gun on him.
Ever notice they sometimes will also talk with an assertive tone so they can intimidate people and get away with their "prank"? This wonderful video shows how whiny and cowardly they get when shit gets real. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbR-Zip8wQo
Like if you're gonna be racist, at least make it obvious so the person you offended can beat the shit out of ya with more reason. No need to be a pussy and claim it's all a prank. People like this honestly need to delete their YouTube channels and see what it's like being criticized for a non-changeable feature they were born with.

Then the Youtube comments would be all "Look at those savages getting all hostile!"
What about the one where they pretended to kidnap people and shit and made it look like they were gonna rape some chick? That one upset me cause it almost seemed real until I found out that girl is an actress who often acts in the role of a rape victim and shit. But they never told you that she was acting and really she was a pretty good actress. she was screaming and crying and shit. It was extremely unsettling.

Everyone involved in those videos is a paid actor so don't stress. The one time it was for real was when this guy went up to this random guy and asked him if he wanted to see his ass while holding his hand behind his back (he had a little eeyore from Winnie the Pooh) and the guy fronted up to him and cold cocked the cunt and knocked him out cold. Cuts to footage later and the guy had a hole in his cheek. Was good stuff.

But when your comedy has the same effect as just plain being racist in earnest, then choosing to do it anyway is also a racist act. Really, the intent doesn't matter here, the consequences do.
As much as people think comedy treats nothing as sacred, a lot of "comedians" treat comedy itself as sacred. Comedy is totally subject to criticism for things like this.
Oh and those videos made to seem real, but the Camera is across the street, but the audio is like your right there. But its unplanned encounters right!
Oh please, their target audience isn't people who support their "pranks". It's people like you and me who just want to see the host get his face beaten in with a tire iron.
Especially cause they purposefully try to incite violence. I remember one where these kids went up to these black dudes and said "Hey I liked your shoes. Would you mind if I stepped on them like this?" and then promptly get the shit kicked out of them and scream "IT'S JUST A PRANK BRO!"
If you went into a white neighborhood and did that I'm pretty sure the reaction would be the same.

By far the worst one of these is the "prank" where the guy kidnapped his friend. He literally abducted his friend and convinced him they killed his best friend and we're going to kill him. They tied him up and put him in the trunk of their car.
That happened in one of the jackass movies and was prettt funny; still a dick move in real life though.

KISSING RANDOM GIRLS ON THE STREET PRANK(FUNNY)(GONE SEXUAL)(GONE WRONG)(GONE RIGHT)(COPS CALLED)(ALMOST SHOT)(ALMOST ARRESTED)(ALMOST PUNCHED)
There was this total douchebag who faked the story of giving a homeless man $100 and filming him spending the money on soda and chips for his homeless friends and everyone was like "oh what a cool dude/story" turns out dude was fake AF and paid the homeless guy to act in the scene.
I never got the appeal of prank video. All I see is people being douchebag (or even worse, actually doing harm) to some random strangers then say afterward "It is just a prank bro". And people find that funny? I just feel bad about those affected.
If you want actual quality pranks i recommend impractical jokers, they have some original content and it isn't constant bulshit waists of time like all these Amature YouTube pranksters
They're barely even trying to pass them off as real anymore. There was one famous prank channel I forget the name where they did two fake kidnapping videos and immediately any sane person would realise how fake they were being that if they actually did it then chances are the prankees would call the cops and they'd be arrested for committing a felony.
This isn't at all what you're talking about, but what you said reminds me of "The Penis Prank" from the now-defunct ZUG.com. There is absolutely nothing about that that makes it a "prank". He's just trying a bunch of different penis-enlargement formulas he sees advertised and measuring to see if any of them actually worked. He's performing an experiment. Nobody is being "pranked" in any way. It's almost like he was so used to titling prank stories on his website, that he just did the same for that story by force of habit and never changed it.

either they're all paid (shitty) actors, in which case, fuck you why even bother.
and if they're not actors the prank is just being assholes to strangers with a camera on.
there are exceptions, like mediocre films shopping list prank. but the thing that makes it work is that THEY'RE the victims. they prank each other, and doing it in public is just to make it more embarrassing.
I don't know if it is still up, but I once saw a video showing some guys who made a video where they went out on the street at night and walked up to people and asked, "Do you want to die tonight?" Some of those people responded by hitting them or otherwise getting into a fighting posture. If it was real, they're just lucky no one pulled a gun or knife to kill them. That was the worst "prank" I've seen on youtube.
Don't worry, that phase is over. Now the pranksters just do Spiderman and Elsa videos.

They pass off their prank as completely real until they are found out.
Ah yes, like the woman who pretended to be drunk and filmed people taking advantage of her and trying to lure her back to their homes?
The guys filmed turned out to be actors, and angry actors at that, given they unknowingly got displayed as attempted rapists.
saw this video on Cracked the other day of this dude that does fake kissing prank videos aka encouraging sexually assaulting strangers aka hiring instagram models to make out with him for "pranks" targeted at teenagers aka advertising his monthly subscription scam
honestly so gross the dude should have charges brought against him for fraud

One that I genuinely think is good, honest, and fucking hilarious is Ruben from EpicFiveTV. He has a genuine personality, none of his pranks are fake or have hired actors, and he calls out other youtubers for being garbage. He trolls around on the Vegas strip a lot and it's hilarious. No I'm not him either lol he has like 1.5mill subscribers.
Ah, the old "If I call it a prank, I can be a raging asshole with no consequences!" defense.
Those boneheads need to stop watching Jackass and start watching Candid Camera (and similar shows, Japan loves the things) for an idea of what actually constitutes hidden camera practical jokes.
I see this complaint all the time on reddit and while I agree with it, I don't understand why it's so commonly mentioned. I have never seen one of these shitty videos recommended to me and I certainly don't go looking for them. What are all you guys watching all the time that makes these videos pop up for you?
MagicofRahat is probably the only good prank channel, because they're actually pranks, just some harmless fun and illusions to get laughs out of people.
Plus he seems like a legitimately nice guy, especially when he helped a homeless man get a new home.
I totally agree. But there are ways to make "prank" videos entertaining without enraging everyone around you. Look at Mediocrefilms. He made lots of pranks like cell phone crashing and going to target, but even when there was interaction with other people, he still made it fun. I guess you just have to have a certain type of charisma for it and good ideas for those pranks. Something lots of "social experiment" youtubers do not have
Everyone on penguin magic is pretty awesome, they do a lot of "prank it forward" type stuff, spread positivity through illusion magic and some pretty hilarious pranks.
I worked on a movie with some youtube pranksters. We started doing the pranks with real marks. Then we realized how bad they were at actually pranking people and had to sprinkle to paid actors in order to help sell the prank.
For what it's worth, that movie was the one project that made me reconsider my career in reality tv on a moral basis.
There was a guy who bought an old car, plastered it with Trump stickers and asked his black friends to beat the shit out of the car while pretedending they were not in on it.
The guy later posted an apology video when he got caught.

Rule of thumb:
A good prank ends with everybody laughing
The "see your best friend die" one actually made me stop it halfway. I was sobbing. Couldn't make it through that. Like how do you even think that's a prank? That's heart-wrenching and soulless
I feel like the only genuine prank channel on youtube is MagicOfRahat...especially his drive thru videos...

urgh and when it backfires they cut the video to make it look like they're the victim, like that guy on the plane, when he said he was being profiled and it turns out he was shouting 'Allahu Akhbar' to make people uncomfortable and see how they'd react.
I am weird and like to watch people play claw machines in arcades. There's a YouTuber named Claw Kicker who does a shit ton of clickbait thumbnails and titles. Things like "Kicked out of Denny's for winning an MP3 player!" when that never actually happened. He also has faked videos saying it was at some location but after the cut people realized he was using a machine he owned himself.
Recently he made a video saying there was a hack to get free plays on claw machines by using the flash from your phone's camera which others debunked. He's admitted faking a lot of shit for views.
EDIT: Wow. This topic blew up. Thanks to The Crane Couple and Matt3756 for commenting on here. Completely unexpected. Just wanted to mention that the two I just mentioned and Plush Time Wins are the 3 channels on the claw machine culture I watch continuously and recommend that if anyone is interested to look at those channels and subscribe. If Angel and Crystal from PTW see this, you guys are awesome, too, and hope that this brings a lot more attention and subs to your guys' channels. Also, not attacking Claw Kicker but due to his misleading videos, I don't try to watch him.
Matt3756 is the top YouTuber for it. Plush Time Wins is entertaining enough although the girl's voice annoys a lot of people. The Crane Couple are okay but not as entertaining as the others, in my opinion, but they do have other videos where they've gone to a couple of the arcades in Las Vegas hotels like Excalibur and Circus Circus and played the games there so I found those interesting.
EDIT: Wanted to add about the Crane Couple. They're from California, I believe, and they go to a place called Playland Japan which looks awesome and has a bunch of machines. Makes their channel a bit more unique.

Hey all - Matt3756 here. I'm not really active here on reddit but some of my fans were tweeting to me saying some of you guys were mentioning me + my videos here and how you enjoyed them and whatnot and I just wanted to say thank you to all of you!
You guys made me smile hearing how some of you enjoy the videos and just my personality in general - that's one of the main reasons I continue to make videos (but yes it's also my full time job lol) . I try to be as real and down to earth as possible in my videos and if I can make someone's day a little brighter or help someone through a rough time in their life with my silly / crazy videos - then I feel I've done my duty!
Holy crap. First Crane Couple now you. Never thought me posting about my love for claw machine videos would get to this level.
I appreciate you commenting and have mentioned a couple of times on here how you just seem like a really genuine dude. I've enjoyed your videos for a few years now and continue to.

Plush Time Wins is entertaining enough although the girl's voice annoys a lot of people
I accepted this challenge thinking it couldn't be that bad and was probably more cute than annoying.
For anyone else that's curious, the girl's voice is borderline rage-inducing. Not for the faint of heart. I had to close the tab before she even got five words out.
LOL right on. I am a pretty patient and tolerating person so I've just gotten used to it. The comments on their videos though aren't as kind sometimes. I believe a few people have dubbed her "helium girl" if I'm not mistaken.

She was most likely sexually abused as a child to have that voice. It's a phenomenon where your voice stays around the same as the age you were molested so if that's the case I feel bad for her. Her voice didn't induce rage, it just made me think of a very emotionally under developed adult.
Just wanted to drop in and say thanks for giving us a mention! We're pretty flattered to be name-dropped alongside the biggest arcade channels :) And yes we are in southern California, but travel a lot to do our videos. It's a ton of work (especially for only being able to do these on weekends) but it's nice to know that our efforts are appreciated!
Holy crap. Totally unexpected. Loved your videos on the Las Vegas arcades. You guys are one of the 3 channels I continuously watch on the subject and I just binge watched a bunch of your videos the other night.
Thanks! Matt and PTW are good people and it feels pretty awesome to be listed alongside them! We actually just got back from Vegas so there'll be more videos on that in the coming weeks.
In my opinion, you three are the only channels worth watching when it comes to the claw videos. Thanks for taking the time to comment on here.

You guys are absolutely the best channel going right now. I lived in Japan for a few years and played UFOs there obsessively so it's the best nostalgia for me. Thank you.
Thanks a lot! We're pretty jealous that you were able to live in Japan - looks like a pretty fantastic place :) Glad that you can get your UFO catcher fix through our channel, at least!

Well I'm really jealous that you guys get to visit Round 1 in CA! Wish I lived there :P
Thanks to this thread, I just started watching your videos. I have a quick question for R1 generally. Is it possible to win when the UFO catcher is in less than ideal shape? I feel like it would be best to walk away or ask a really nice attendant when the catcher doesn't push/pull very well.
Thanks for giving our content a shot! For Round 1, it really depends. It's common for prizes to be knocked into a really bad position by others players and then left there - the employees don't normally reset the prize to proper starting position unless it's obviously unwinnable (like if it's out of the claw's range.) It's totally fine to ask for the prize to be reset so you have a fair chance of winning it!
Now if the machine and claw itself are set too weak, then it's probably best to just walk away unless you really want that specific prize. We've seen people spend $20+ and still leave empty-handed. If you've already spent a bunch and still haven't won, cool employees will usually set up the prize for you to win more easily! But it'll still be expensive either way.
Good luck and hope you win lots at your local Round 1!
He just seems like the most oddly nice guy. Like, he doesn't curse and he uses all of this funny clean version of words. I really like we he does carnival games.
I enjoyed their collaboration video they did. I think both would be fun people to hang out with. You can tell that Matt was raised right, which makes me feel like I sound really old...
Honestly one of the nicest people I've met, went to one of those trampoline gyms with him once (brother invited him) and didn't know who he was. Played tons of dodgeball with him and had a blast.
Never even mentioned youtube once. Only reason I knew afterward was because my second brother watched his videos.

I'm gonna have to check these out, too. I used to be really good at claw machines when I was a kid, lol. EDIT: Holy shit, you were right about Plush Time Wins. I could only stomach about 30 seconds of that girl's voice. What the hell, man.
LOL. Yeah. I used to play claw machines all the time when I was a kid. Matt3756 used to sell some of his wins on eBay but there are some videos of him giving stuff to little kids. A few years ago my ex and I were at Dave and Busters and there was a family there and the dad was trying to win in the big claw machine and almost got this dog and I played right after and won it so we went and gave it to the kids. The dad was really appreciative.
This reminds me of a month ago, my 2 yr old and I were having lunch at this local pub that has a claw machine. It's filled with big and small rubber duckies. My son, of course wanted to play. Dad says, "Sure, why not." The first two attempts dad helped "guide" the experience with no success. On the third attempt my 2 yr old says, "I do it." And I was like, fuck it, it's all yours. Sure enough the kid navigates the claw over the ducks, drops it and comes up a winner. I couldn't believe it. My heart swelled with pride and satisfaction. Now every time I see that duck in the bathroom, it puts a smile on my face.
Oh, absolutely. I'm sure when like Matt3756 started making videos he never thought he'd get a big following or else he probably would have come up with a catchier YouTube name lol.
One year around Christmastime they had these little stuffed polar bears with Coca Cola bottles in their paws. They were so cute. I must have won a dozen of those things. Gave one to each member of my family and just passed the others out to people at the arcade. Good times.
I think I remember those... I want to say it was when the Beanie Baby craze was happening but I'm sure they've had Coca Cola bears throughout the years.
Yeah, I'm in my early 30s, so timing should be about right.

I just watched one of Matt3756's most popular videos, the one where he cleans out the machine, and thought it was really nice of him to give the prizes away. I'm sure it's no big deal to him as he probably has a million stuffed animals, but that sort of thing probably made those two girls' day and gave them an interesting story that turned into a video that has currently been seen over 4.7 million times that they can tell their friends about. Really odd to me that it surrounds a claw machine, but nice nonetheless.
I think Crane Couple did that in a video too. Gave a giant bag of stuff to a little girl. I'm not rich and I don't make videos like this but I like to play the claw machines just to play them so if I win, I like to find someone who would actually want the prize. I used to get off work early on Wednesdays when Dave and Busters had half price games and would just show up and play the claw machines. If I won and didn't care about the prizes I'd try to give them away. I'm sure it's kind of creepy for a grown man to try to give toys to little kids but I just play to play and if I can make some little kid happy, I'm cool with that.

The Crane Couple are in southern California and Playland Japan is in San Francisco. The one I enjoy seeing The Crane Couple visit most so far is NeoFuns in Monterey Park.
Matt3756 got me into watching the arcade/crane vids. Matt's videos have kinda fallen off for me. I don't know why. I still watch them all, but they don't pull me like they used to. Maybe he needs to hit up more restaurant claws or redeem stuff for prizes more. Inspired by Matt I got off my ass and went to a Round 1 (an hour and a half away) and couldn't win a damn thing from the UFO catcher's so that's how I found The Crane Couple.
The Crane Couple's Toreba videos taught me the basics I needed to know to win at UFO catcher's. Then they started their Round 1 videos and other arcades on the road which are awesome.
Plush Time Wins is great once you're over Crystal's voice. (No offense, Crystal! I used to think it was an act.). I used to think Angel was kind of a jerk to her, but they're just being playful. They're happy and and fun and I even follow their vlog channel now.
ClawStruck. sighs. Plush Babe is the one reason I watch. The dialogue can be blah during the videos with Jeremy and Brandon. They try to sound all pro talking about payout rates and stuff and the techniques they're using and half the time that stuff don't even work. Just because you own a claw doesn't make you a pro, just like how owning a car doesn't make you a mechanic.
I liked the Crane Couple's Vegas videos with Brittani's sister. I hadn't been to those arcades since I was a kid. I think it was at Excalibur when I played at like age 16 and the ticket machine malfunctioned and gave me over 3000 tickets for like 60 tickets. I did that a few times and got a lava lamp and this other electricity thing lol.
The only videos from Matt I don't watch much is the mail videos and the ones where he takes his claw machine to convention places for other people to play.
I realized I had watched the Toreba video before I even got into their other videos.
I'm not sure I ever really noticed her voice or cared enough to think about it, actually, until I read the comments on YouTube.
Haven't watched ClawStruck before.

I can tolerate her voice but I really don't understand the point of putting on a voice like that.
LOL I don't think I've seen their room of prizes but yeah, I think there's a few that do donate their prizes which is really cool. I've done that when I've played. I will win something and then find a little kid around, ask their parent if it's okay if they have it and tell them I just like to play the games and have no need for the toy.

I thought I might like that, but I only lasted about 5 mins. Not that he's bad, it's just too boring watching the damn machine drop it 10x before he wins.
You have to consider though, if he only showed the times he won, the video would be even more boring. The viewer wouldn't have that "oh, he's got it.. WHAT?!" kind of feeling lol.
Acutally, playland japan is kinda awful. The only really fun machine there is the one with the taiko drums. If you want fun in Japantown, go to the rest of the mall.

Playland Japan is in the Japantown center is San Francisco and def worth a visit.
A radio duo - Hamish and Andy went on a cruise ship and found a cash crane. They had listeners call in and give instruction on how to operate the claw machine "forward, forward, forward, stop."
LOL I'll have to give that a listen. Last cruise I went on there was like a 10-year-old kid playing the game. I'm like uh... isn't there like laws against this?
That's funny. Never seen anyone win those. I heard a rumor that every day in the middle of the night, they open the machines and remove the big bundles to make it look like people were winning.

I mainly watched just to see how annoying the girl's voice was for you to mention it. Holy. Fuck. That is in the top three most annoying voices of all time.
Plush Time Wins is entertaining enough although the girl's voice annoys a lot of people.
I really don't get the attraction of watching people play a claw machine but to each his own however, watching this girl play is just horrible. What bugs me is that it's not that her voice is annoying.. it's very annoying but that her voice is annoying because she is talking like a 3 year old. This takes me way back to high school where these types of girls dressed as babies or toddlers any chance they got, walked around with those candy sucker rings that used to be popular and just over exaggerated any emotion with the equally exaggerated hand and facial expressions. They were usually smoking hot so they could always get away with this stupid shit. Made me want to put pencils in my ears.
I have no idea how I got ot Matts videos but seriously they are super binge worthy. I don't even care for claw machines or stuff like that but watching him win is pretty cool. I think I burned through a good "month," Worth of videos on Saturday of his.
Haha. That's cool. A lot of it is the personalities of the people. You can tell that they just really enjoy these games and it's even cooler that many of them donate a good majority of stuff they win to Toys for Tots and other charities.

Plushbabe is the only thing worth watching ClawStruck for.
How about that one video where he was walking towards a building saying he was going to play the machines in it, then cuts to him playing a claw machine in a building, and it just so happens to have a plush with an iPod attached to it with a rubber band. For people that don't know who he is, he just so happens to own his own arcade with claw machines. Also, he has some friends that also make arcade machine videos, and in one of their videos, they win something out of one of those key master machines at his arcade because he "forgot" to close the divider thing that's supposed to block the key/pusher thing.
[deleted] ยท 18 points ยท Posted at 02:35:13 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Sorry, I'll try to bullet point it for better clarity
Her was filming himself and a friend walking towards a building
The video cuts to them at a claw machine without showing them walking into the building and no establishing shot inside
As they play the claw machine, they notice that on a plush, there is an iPod attached to it with a rubber band
Claw Kicker owns an arcade with multiple claw machines, plus many claw machines in other locations that he distributes plushes to. This causes suspicion as it makes no sense for anyone other than him to do such a thing.
Second story
A friend of his also has an arcade machine YouTube channel
Her made a video of him at Claw Kicker's arcade
He found a Key Master machine where CK seemed to "forget" to slide the piece of glass that's supposed to block the pusher thing over when he stocked it.
Her "won" a rather expensive item. This is suspicious since it's rather careless that CK would forget something like that, and rather convenient that his friend seemed to be the only one who discovered it.
you know your life is going nowhere when your friday night ends up on claw machine channels. I've actually seen that exact guy, but he did kinda get kicked out after he won, it just wasn't forceful & kinda sounded like a joke that he took too seriously.
Yeah, that's basically it. It seems like a lot of other channels that try to copy that format do the same. There are a lot of videos of people "hacking" the machines. I remember one claimed that if you push the lock on the door of the big machines it lets you win. So they edit the videos so they do this and then cut to a clip of them winning.
Lol yeah been there. But a recommendation from one of those claw videos led me to one of the most epic things I've ever seen.. the ultimate jackpot win on some crazy Japanese game: https://youtu.be/i0OnmhhFk9g
You seem pretty unhappy, struggling with something in life? Stuck in an unhealthy cycle? Feeling like something is missing and like life isn't quite enough?
You are not weird. I'm down with that stuff as well. I have no idea why. I think it's the fact that they are just having so much fun. I like to put it on my TV when I'm doing other work.
Matt3756 was my gateway drug. I saw some videos where he bought a machine and showed the insides, how they work, how places adjust the setting of the claw or set the claw to only really grab once every 10 or so plays. It was really good.
I liked his early stuff where he would talk about what he was trying to accomplish to help him grab the prizes. These days it's pretty understandable why he doesn't but that's really what I think got me hooked is that I really believed he wanted to help people win.
Good god I thought I was the only one who got hooked on that. I honestly even know the YouTuber you're taking about by description of the videos and not even the name

There aren't any real "hacks" for arcade games, you can use some tricks but they're very Asia and usually designed to not be easily swindled. Source: arcade game tech.
I am weird and like to watch people play claw machines in arcades.
Not weird. I'm the same way. My mom has always been pretty good at them so I became obsessed at a young age. I like claw machine videos because all the machines in my hometown have those loosened claws that can't pick up a fucking rubber duck.
That's exactly how it is here. The only place I was ever able to win was at a Dave and Busters about 30 minutes away. Then they started stuffing the machines.
The only one I won a constant stream of prizes from was a rubber duck machine at Friendly's. I used to get super excited when I went there because I knew I'd be leaving with at least 4 ducks, if not more.
I remember about 7 or 8 years back, my friend somehow won an iPod from one of the ones at the grocery store and the manager was pissed. He flat out said "you must have found a way to cheat because nobody is supposed to win the big prizes. We made sure of it." Since then I shy away from most machines.
The nice thing about Matt3756's channel is that he'll talk about which machines are rigged and which ones usually aren't. Also mentions to look at the claws to see how they clamp and whatnot.
Dude I stumbled on Claw Kicker and somehow watched all his videos. I can't believe there really is a YouTube channel for everything. Crazy to watch him go from playing the games for fun to owning his own machines.
Have you ever tried one of those claw machine apps? I don't know if it is something here only, but it is literally a claw machine hooked up to a webcam.
Sounds scammy as fuck, but from the reviews I read it seems quite real except for dickish coin pricing.
There are virtual claw machines that you can play online. You buy credits and play them. So if you win a prize on the game, they send you an actual prize. I can't remember what the site was though. It was Japanese, I think.
Dunno if you know of him but check out the channel Clawstruck. Dude seems like a super genuine nice guy.

I feel that whatever views, subs, or likes he got for that camera flash one, he deserves. It's embarrassing that needed to be debunked.
I took apart a claw machine recently for a project, there's no way any cheats would work unless you could control the electromagnet that activates the claw. It's a super basic design and the frequency they give wins is controlled by a computer. Play 10 times in a row and you're likely to get something.
You should check out an app "Toreba". You can control a claw machine from your phone. They'll send it to you if you win. I rarely play it but I am also weird and enjoy just watching other people play!

I didn't know this was a thing, but I'm stoked because I'm a total claw machine junkie. When I was a kid I'd go to the arcade and when I ran out of change for the claw machine I'd just sit around and watch other kids play it.
I don't even remember how I discovered these videos. I remember Matt3756 was one of the only people doing these things and now there are a lot more but I believe most, if not everyone, was inspired by him. I used to love playing them when I was a kid and my mom would get so pissed at me cuz I'd spend $20 and bring home like 2 plush that cost probably 17 cents a piece lol.

I was the same way lol, but I got really good at them at a point. Once they started upgrading though and going beyond just the claw and the candy ones I was a lost cause.
I always thought it was cool to find a 25 cent play til you win candy machine and then I was like "For 12 quarters, I can buy a whole bag of this candy..."
Thanks to you, I spent a good hour watching claw machine videos on YouTube! I like Matt3756 -- not too impressed with The Claw Kicker's personality. Thanks for the unexpected new entertainment!
That's part of it for me. I mentioned before I like some of Claw Kicker's earlier stuff but the three I've listed I like for various reasons. I like Matt because there's times when he just loses it over a win or near win. I like PTW because I like Angel and Crystal's relationship with each other, I even look at their vlogs. And I like Crane Couple because they tend to bring different things to the table and seem like good people.

Man, I love the world. Endless variety, endless wonder.
Man, I know exactly what you're talking about. He made a video once saying he got 'KICKED OUT FOR EMPTYING A MACHINE', but you can see in the video he was kicked out for rocking the machine.
Everyone in the claw machine culture knows that's a huge no-no, yet that idiot goes ahead and does it.
In older machines, no. I believe there is a little screw or something of that sort to adjust how the claw closes that can affect it but more modern machines are the ones that can be set with a set payout.

She was called reply girl and she basically just exploited the related videos algorithm; not really trending. Sometimes she didn't even watch the video she would just mumble stuff for several minutes.
For being owned by Google, youtube has the worst search functionality I've ever seen. If you don't know the exact name of the original video you are looking for (or even if you do), your going to end with just a bunch of reaction videos and videos from the chick you're talking about and people of that nature.
It's hard to make an automated search functionality when you only have the title (and tags, if that still exists) of a video to go off of. I'm not sure what else you could do, except convince video makers to title their videos concisely.
YouTube search is much better IMO then Reddit. Heck, even Reddit admins agree on this.
YouTube just too many videos so it is just gonna pull up the "best and most popular" results because most likely there are 50 million videos with the same name.
But yea, the search is still pretty terrible. They need to give more filter options atleast. Both websites do.
There still is a ton of reaction videos. She quit because Youtube made it so you didn't get the advertising money unless they watched all of your video.
Since most dudes just clicked for her in a skimpy outfit and not for her commentary she quickly went away.

Thats not surprising. Most people don't do ASMR to get boners. In fact I find the dual forces of arousal and ASMR tingles frequently cancel each other out as if on a seesaw.
Also if I'm going to have my 150$ headset on and deeply listen to someone's voice, it ain't gonna be a voice from a fucking dude. That just sounds uncomfortable.
And presumably the ones who do are there for audio boners, not visual boners.

I won't lie, I've watched a couple of her videos with the incentive being that impressive cleavage, but to get credit she's actually not bad at ASMR. There are far better channels, though, and you're really not in it to watch as much as listen.
In my experience Ally from ASMRRequests is the best, and she's also hot. I don't know about the hottest, though. I typically look for that other places, but it's not as important for ASMR.
Reminds me a bit of Rawrist.bshe covers asoiaf/got stuff on top of other fantasy type things. She's always in a low cut shirt with a glass of wine.
She never does any original content, it's all news/basic lore/fantheories. Other users make much better content, but she gets more views than anyone in that category besides Preston Jacobs. /u/PrestonJacobs is on a whole other level of quality and militry grade tinfoil.
Wasn't there also a girl who would just sit and stare at the camera for like 10 minutes, and get a shit tonne of views and be on the "most viewed" page. I'm talking really early days here, and I've never been able to remember her name or track down her channel since. I was always equal parts baffled and confused by her.

Unfortunately, Youtube's reaction to this sort of threw the baby out with the bathwater. After changing up the algorithm to promote "minutes watched" rather than "number of views," entire genres died on the site overnight, such as independent animation, as they couldn't compete against more lengthy videos with a quick turnover rate, like Let's Plays, vlogs, etc.
Newgrounds fixtures RubberNinja and RicePirate made a couple interesting videos covering the topic. It's an interesting, sad story.

Was it a reply girl or something where she would reply to all popular videos wearing a white top where her big ol' saggy tits would be hanging out and she'd ramble about useless shit?
gets better, one of those replygirls started doxing the others and threaten bodily harm if they didnt stop posting reply videos, so she would gain more exposure.
her boyfriend was caught paying for bots to gain her videos views, and her boyfriends brother is KMartn, who recently got caught gambling on his own online-gamblingsite without disclosing this information in order to turn his 11 year old viewerbase into gamblers who throw money at him.

LPT: there are places on the internet where you can watch hot girls, in any various state of dress down to and including butt-naked, doing pretty much any sort of degrading thing you want.
If you want to watch a girl in a bra mumble about something that's barely related to what you were watching, then shine on, but as someone else pointed out she was just exploiting the related video algorithm of the time, and also exploiting dudes' propensity to want to see tits.

Looking at you, Phillip Defranco! Him reacting to his old video about women with big boobs is one of my favorites, you can tell he hates what he use to do to get views.
Remember "reply girls," where YouTube had a feature for people to leave "reply" videos to other videos. Popular videos were always targeted to be "replied to" by sexy girls in dumb videos.
Philip de Franco did this a lot in his early days.

I did that once for a rickroll.
The title was something about a "The Office" spin-off in Utica, and the thumbnail was Karen looking at the camera. Took me hours to get it right... High school was a weird time.

You used to be able to do a thing where you right-clicked, stopped the video entirely, and it would just show the thumbnail. Then they got rid of that function.

That seems better. At least then the thumbnail actually was in the video. Although that trick is so common on YouTube I feel you only have yourself to blame if you still fall for it.

Was the timestamp of the thumbnail proportional to the length of the video? I was never sure of this, but I figure it would have to be.
I don't remember where I heard this, but I think reports like that count against their popularity algorithm placement

Ooh. Do you know if the youtube partners see their reports? There's a few channels that while I do occasionally watch, I would like to voice my discontent of their content and have them actually see it.
Youtubers won't see specific reports. They'll see if actions have been taken by youtube for a video and why (like "video muted because of copyright") but that's it.
C) you're awfully condescending for someone who doesn't know what a metaphor is.

A) B) and C) are actually bullshit, i dont care if you dont get it or think its stupid but its actually a common phrase, it foes make sense actually its pretty easy to comprehend, do you wantto explain how metaphors work then Gandhi? Without googling a definition first perhaps. Did i not apply the relationship of something else to another situation using symbolism?
Of course these questions are rhetoric because thats what a metaphor is, but go ahead and tell me its not.
But most personalities get lots of messages and may not see yours. They'll see all the reports, lol, especially if they affect that sweet YouTube money.
Sorry, I'm not entirely certain about this, but I'm 97% sure they don't. However, they would notice if they got reported for copyright infringement or age restricted content.
Yeah i guess though that the amount of people who watch the video and don't report it heavily outnumber the people that do so it somewhat evens out (in a perfect world)
What I remember reading is that after a certain amount of reports YouTube will check to see if the video actually violates any rules. Otherwise they ignore the reports
I think the threshold is/was there so that people can't attack a channel by spamming the report button on all of its videos. Reported content can damage a channel especially since the video is taken down while it's being reviewed which means no money.
I believe this is no longer the case. I think while it's under review all revenue is held in escrow and either funded back to ad providers or goes to YouTube if the case is upheld.

It causes a LOT of very negative comments to rise to the top. How? Because responding to a comment means it gets more priority. The more responses, the better the chance it gets too comment. So what kind of comments get a lot of responses? Inflaming ones. Post a comment containing a compliment or something I formative and it likely will only get a couple responses. Post something hurtful wrong and enraging and everybody is going to jump on your ass. YouTube's retarded comment algorithm looks at all of those and says "Oh hey, this comment is popular and generating discussion, to the top with you!"
Most sites (Reddit for example, but also many others) combat this by including downvote and upvotes options that influence the hierarchy of that comment in the chain. If a comment has lots of replies but is at -28 it's probably not constructive and most likely a troll.
FUCKING YOUTUBE took the Facebook philosophy during all the Google Plus nonsense when they were trying to be the next Facebook which is that any interaction from the community is good for the site and disabled any sort of downvoting of the comments. That means 100s of downvotes on a troll's comment won't do a damn thing, but the 9 upvotes it got from random idiots remain. It's why you often see such vile toxic top comments. Fuck YouTube. Fuck Google Plus.

Phil actually mentioned in a video last week I think that he knowingly abused it and hated it, but now if they pull something like that they end up less views. He said he's famous enough that his face in a thumbnail increases his view and his name in the title draws in the most viewers.
gulmari ยท 220 points ยท Posted at 01:13:19 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, Phil just uses his face with other stuff from the video put in the background. I think he has a serious neck injury though since he's always holding his neck in his thumbnails.
Can confirm. I stopped watching him 4 years ago or whenever he started that, and I've recently picked him back up. He gives nice moderate/honest insight in today's turbulent world of info
He talked about that in one of his videos. People are more likely to close the video if there's an intro sequence. That's why he got rid of the monkey thing. Now he just has an outro jingle.
Was that before or after he stopped using it? I just remember that I watched about 5 videos before he stopped using it and then suddenly it disappeared. I don't recall hearing him talk about it. Or maybe I just missed it?
Personally I don't mind a very brief intro. Something 5 seconds or less is ok. I also like intros that stay consistent for a long time. Like MKBHD always starts by saying "hey, what is up guys. MKBHD here..." and ends on "I'll talk to you guys in the next one. Peace." It's kinda comforting.
It was at most a few months ago. Phil doesn't have the intro sequence anymore but he does have something like the mkbhd you're talking about. "Sup you beautiful bastards, hope you're having a fantastic ___day. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show and let's just jump into it"

people just see that attention-getting titles are often clickbait and don't seem to realize there's a nuance. click-bait has a negative connotation that the content doesn't really address the shock-value title. (i.e. "you won't believe what happened after this guy cooked food!" -> "suprise suprise,he ate it. thanks for watching our ads")

I'd argue that in most cases, it's not the inaccuracy of a title / thumbnail that qualifies it as click bait, but it being intentionally non-descriptive. "You won't believe what happens next" is click bait in my book, regardless of whether or not I believe the subsequent events in question.
It is interesting to hear it from the creator's perspective. I remember listening to a podcast where Gavin Free from Slow Mo Guys talked about how when he created an interesting title that would draw people in, it was always called out for clickbait. Most of the time, even when videos have THE ALL CAPS SHOUTING TITLES they are still honest about what the video is about.
WOW! Huge Backlash, Body Positive Hypocrisy, and The Most Idiotic Fight Gets Worse
a) it starts with all caps WOW!... a fucking exclamation? why?
b) backlash of what?
c) Most Idiotic Fight Gets worse? could anything be more intentionally vague to try to beg for you to click through just to figure out what it means?
cmon. thats fucking 100% clickbait.
and its just one of many great pieces of clickbait from his video titles.

I like that one cause you get an all caps exclamation (in case you were wondering you should feel about this newest bit of news) and then they leave you with the titillating "and more at 11" tagline.
have I made my point yet or should I just keep copy/pasting clickbait from his upload page to the comments here?
I like Phil and his videos, and I do agree that he still uses clickbait so sorry about that other guy. His content is good like 85-90% of the time and for me that allows me to look past the title, especially since I barely read it anymore I just watch the video for the content.
thats fine, I don't. But I didn't make a comment about phil or his videos. I just commented on the fact that the titles are clickbait.
His content is good like 85-90% of the time and for me that allows me to look past the title, especially since I barely read it anymore I just watch the video for the content.
agree to disagree. but thats why I don't watch his videos.
In fact I don't even care if he uses clickbait titles.
I do care if his army of followers tries to lie about it being clickbait.
you're right he uses click bait. His videos are enjoyable so people watch them, but they undeniably use clickbaity titles. Just less shitty thumbnails.
I think colossal is crazy talked about that in one of the baited podcasts, supposedly he doesn't mind as long as it actually is the subject of the video, and its a well thought out video. I personally like the way pewdiepie has been doing it. His videos have clickbait titles, but he changes it to a regular title after a few days. It makes it so he can use joke\clickbait titles, but then have it explained for the people who dont watch every video (or are watching further back in his history).
its a subject that's tough to agree on. I'm personally fine as long as the title isn't misleading, but others absolutely hate clickbait.
Attention-grabbing titles are automatically clickbait now?
I agree that they're usually vague, but really how much detail do you expect in around 10 words to describe the multiple stories he usually addresses? The titles are accurate to what he talks about in his videos.
Yeah he uses the same stupid title format most youtubers use these days with the caps and stuff because that's what gets attention.
IMO clickbait implies using sensationalism or lying to get views for videos that have little or nothing to do with the title.
I could also use anything that tells me what the video is about.
I don't care about people being outraged over a disgusting leaked tape (that might be fake)
but if you tell me who is outraged over what... that is a different story.

Clickbait is a deviation from the standard newspaper title. Let's take an example: "Sources say [random celebrity]'s leaked sex tape possibly a hoax" vs "HORRIBLE! Leaked video exposed as propaganda!". The second example is clickbait.
it gives a brief overview of whats happening without being intentionally vague and most of all there are no random WOW! HORRIBLE! INSANE! [GONE SEXUAL]! EXCLAMATIONS!
do you really not see the difference between.

Except his titles and thumbnails have been misleading in many cases just go find his video where the title states his channel is being shut down by YouTube I know you might be a fan but that doesn't mean you should be blind

The topics in the title were discussed in the video. How is that clickbait?
Most news articles will contain a very brief summary of the whole article as the title. Clickbait titles give you a sliver of information with attention grabbing words but ultimately have no substance. If you don't know "who did what" from the the title, it's generally clickbait.
[deleted] ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 09:50:39 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Phil has always been very honest about what he does with his videos though. He, unlike many other YouTubers, seems to treat his channel and content as much more of a business. He's a little older than most YouTubers and has a lot more experience, but he still has been very smart about diversifying his revenue streams to support what he does.
Anyway, the real point is that since he treats it more like a business, I feel like he is one of the few guys who actually puts work into YouTube analytics. Some guys like MatPat make reference to it occasionally, but none have been as honest about it as Phil. His analysis shows that those clickbaity titles get more views, so thats what he does. He's done experiments on putting a hot girl in the thumbnail vs. himself, and he tends to draw in more viewers, so now that's what he does.
Damn do I just love how honest and real he is about his job.

Not clickbaity in the slightest if it's him talking about what the title says. Roman Atwood, on the other hand, has some non relevant/pointless title in all caps with a picture of his wife (if that's what she is now) wearing as close to nothing or looking as seductive as possible
I think CTFxC has the worst clickbait titles ever. I used to watch them years ago but had to unsubscribe when every video title became something like "STOP PULLING MY PANTS DOWN" or "SHE'S NEVER BEEN SO CRAZY".
That isn't clickbait, that's exactly what he discusses in the video. Just because it's worded in a way to grab attention doesn't make it clickbait, it makes it good advertising.

Go find his video where he titled it YouTube is shutting down his channel and then in the video states the opposite, also he had a recent one about celebrity nudes being leaked again with Katy Perry front and center in the thumbnail when it had nothing to do with her and she isn't even mentioned just her boyfriend Orlando Bloom, there is two examples

It's not. "Clickbait" is either a title with a cliffhanger (i.e. you'll never believe what happens next) or intentionally misleading. If a Youtuber titles their video as "INSANE LADY DRINKS A GALLON OF HOT SAUCE", for example, but the video really is of a woman drinking a gallon bucket of hot sauce, even if its a time laps over a couple of hours thats still fair because you are getting what you wanted.
His titles are clickbait but I don't really care because I find out what the title is about seconds into the video. Also, I've gotten to a point where I just don't care about his titles. I see that he's uploaded a video, I just click and look in the description. If your a fan of his and watch his videos the titles aren't for you.
And it must be working because he's more popular than he ever was.
Sorry but that's absolutely not true sir. If anything in his title suggests that it's click bait it's an actual story that he covers in depth. Most of that is satire for all the shitty news sources anyway.
I called him out on this on Twitter a few months ago, and he basically told me to fuck off. So I did. Glad to see I was right.
Edit: Downvote me if you want, but I call people out on their bullshit when I see it. Clickbait is bullshit. I'm glad Phil apparently changed his ways, but I don't find myself missing his shows.

Philip DeFranco is such a weird thing, he's actually one of the most clickbaity popular YouTubers out there.
Just look at any title for his daily show, the "secret link of the day," the thumbnails (especially when it comes to women), and stuff like not telling you/showing you something and then just pointing you to the link in the description.
His show is good but godamn is it BuzzFeed levels of clickbaity.
Man, I got sick of Phil after round 3 of 'The Fappening'. The event was only as bad as it was because of all the coverage. By continuing to cover it, he was stirring the pot and making money, while saying how awful it was. Either say, "I love this shit and I want more celebs to be caught naked," or stop covering it...
Wait he actually stopped doing his girl of the day thing? I literally unsubscribed to him in the past because of that and his all caps titles, even though I generally liked his videos.

Because the actual monitoring and the representation of their monitoring are different things. Don't make stupid claims like "oh this seems fake" if you can literally find out that its not in less than 5 seconds, that's beyond fucking lazy and quite frankly its plain immature.
Why didn't they change clothes? Why were they always there at the right times? Were they there for the whole 3 days?
They likely watched the 3 days of footage together and commented on various things, then they went to place where they recorded the show and had what they observed put in. That's how these things go lol...

He's on a slight decline, now, ever since that Filthy Frank cameo. It was hilarious as a one off joke, but now he seems to keep trying to be "weird" when I much preferred it when it was basically an entirely educational video.
You should check out The Philip DeFranco show then. I had heard of him during old school Youtube when he still went by Sxephil and had a lot more mature content that I didn't get at all. For years I didn't watch because I assumed it was the same thing, but last year he covered a story I was interested in, and since then I've been hooked and watch every day!
Truly informative news, without bias. He thinks and talks through his own opinions, then hits people when they deserve to be hit. No bullshit.

Eh, it's still clickbait, bad content, on par with History Channel's Alien documentaries. Or with cable TVs "science" stuff.
Good, informational YouTube content would be CGPGrey, Tom Scott's "Things You Might Not Have Known", or Kurzgesagt.
I love CGP grey with a passion, but it's not really good informational content. He's good to pique your interest, but it's not exactly scientific and a lot of what he says is speculation, like about half a step up from vsauce. He is however hilarious.
In a nutshell is a little better but some of their paid content is a little transparent.
Shrug. I don't really follow him so I don't know how often he releases videos, I just see his content pop up once n awhile and its always fairly entertaining and informative.
When I first started to watch his vids, I cringed when I saw he had a video interviewing Obama. I figured religious southerner, not going to go well. Instead, he thoughtfully explained how his beliefs didn't line up with Obama's, but he was going to go in with an open mind. The whole video was phenomenal.
After watching some more of his videos, I realized I shouldn't have been surprised...he's just that kind of a reasonable guy
I just watched it. Holy shit was that a great interview. Not to change topics, but I've always loved it when Obama talked science. He didn't get many chances, but he always hit it out of the park when he had the chance.
Same here. One of my favorite pics of him is him with the kid shooting a potato cannon.
That video was the second video of Destin's that I saw (first was him dropping the cat). I actually found him via a Slow Mo Guys vid (they were both filming bullets in a pool...Another thing I probably assumed something about him over). Once I saw the Obama vid, I subbed. The way he covers science with such enthusiasm, and makes the videos accessable for a wide variety of people without dumbing things down is great.
IMO, and I've told him before, him and his family are the best wrole models a kid these days can have. Smart, always seeking more knowledge. Humble. Kind. Educated. Accomplished.
It depends on the Grey video. Anything geography, he is right on the money and it's awesome. Humans Need not Apply, Americapox, Rules for Rulers: book reports on controversial but amazingly interesting things
Anything political by Grey is good for cliffnotes, bad for substance. He never really makes an effort to make it clear to his audience what he isn't covering, so you have people here on Reddit who will cite his "Gerrymandering" video as a definitive source on how bad it is without ever having seen a single discussion of the complexities (majority-minority districts, for example). Likewise with his voting system videos. Talking about the spoiler effect without even mentioning brokerage parties? It's just enough information to make people who don't really know much at all think they know the whole story.
I agree it's not good for complex or specific examples, but if you're a hs history teacher, I can't think of a better couple of videos for explaining these things.
Exactly. But I still am getting downvotes in the double digits for the VSauce comments, so it seems not everyone agrees with that.

That'd be nice if that'd be all they do. But although most of the bullshit is on VSauce2 and VSauce3 nowadays, there's a lot of content where they present a fringe scientific theory, in a video riddled with wrong information, and a clickbait title.

Basically every video older than 3 years?
And even in todays videos, he's constantly trying to keep your attention without any substance, presents fringe scientific theories, and the overall scientific content of a 15min video is less than as if you'd have just read the first paragraph of the wikipedia article about the topic.
Take the video on Can you touch Mars.
It tells you
someone made a fan flag for Mars, which was used by some astronauts privately
Terraforming is a word
The outer space treaty prevents nations from owning Mars
It takes hours to transmit information to Mars
Mars day is 2.7% longer than on earth
Mars scientists sleep according to Mars time
Mars has different seasons
Humans will touch Mars in our lifetime
Human bodies replace cells every now and then, and with that atoms
Material is exchanged between stellar bodies
Some of the atoms in your body once were part of Mars
When powerful impacts occur on Mars, material can be propelled to orbit. Roughly once every 50 years a meteorite from Mars lands on earth
When Apollo 11 astronauts returned from Luna, they were in quarantine, because NASA feared them bringing bacteria or virii with them
That requirement was lifted after Apollo 14
Mars could have life
Life on Mars could be affected by earth bacteria or virii
Extremophiles organisms have been found that can survive reentry
Stars might be a mechanism to lure aliens and prey on them
There is a theory that life on earth originated from space
NASA has an office for planetary protection
NASA sterilizes Mars probes so that the chance they bring germs with them is 1:10000 or less
A meteor from Mars was found in Antarctica 13'000 years ago
It might have had microscopic fossils
Random info about what the media asked regarding a presentation of that meteor
Some people want to stop going to Mars, other want national parks on Mars, yet others want to help life on Mars
Io has volcanos that erupt
Now, how much of that was actual information, how much was bullshit (the star = glowworm comparison, really?), and how much of it actually talked about the title?
He asks random, unrelated questions, implies things, and so on.
Now, this was a 20 minutes video. This was a post read in seconds, with the same info, and far less of the bullshit. Notice the problem? In fact, he only talked for about 3 minutes about the topic of the title at all.
What where you expecting from the title of that video? It's not misleading, if anyone above the age of five, understands that he's not going to say "Yes, if you stand on this one particular hill on the solstice and jump really high". It's a teachable moment to shift the focus and angle of one topic and open it up in an interesting tangent and deliver seemingly disparate but ultimately connected information in an interesting way. That's his style, you don't have to like it personally, but there's nothing wrong with it inherently. If the subsequent information is false, then this is of course different, which is why I asked the question
It's not obvious that any of those bullets points are factually inaccurate, just that you didn't find them insightful. Perhaps you're a Doctor of Astronomy and you're thesis focused on Mars or something, thereby giving you very specialized knowledge to discredit points that would be otherwise considered factual. If so, it would be helpful if you could elucidate.
(There's no need to downvote someone for asking a question, if he's being misleading, I'd like to know)
I actually mentioned several points where he speculates, without any proof whatsoever.
The discussion about life on Mars (which could be a lot longer, he talked more about the flag than about what we'd expect from life on Mars), or the topic of "humans will touch martian soil in our lifetime". Or his discussion how Martian society would decouple from earths society due to a different calendar and time, which he also just speculated about.
As said, a lot of speculation presented as if it was a lot more credible than it is.
In his video, he has by far more speculation than factual statements.
What I was expecting was a discussion about
Biological contamination
Regarding that, possible discussion about life on Mars
Possible atmospheric problems (due to requiring a space suite, you can't actually touch Mars)
Things I did not expect:
A discussion about the martian calendar
Factually wrong statements about the distance between earth and mars (he stated transfer of information would be delayed by hours โ despite only a few light minutes distance)
A discussion about a martian flags or politics
Things that are still okay IMO:
A discussion about how much martian material is in an average human
How are Vsauce's videos clickbait? Please link a video that is.

Take the recent "should you touch Mars" video.
It's 18 minutes.
Of which less than 3 cover the topic of actually interacting with Mars, and biological contamination.
He also shortly mentions slightly relevant stuff about the moon, and the possibly relevant topic that some of the atoms in your body once were on Mars.
But the entire rest? The glowworm and star comparison? Taking a flag that one astronaut supported as "official"? The random questions, which are at best conjecture? The implications he makes unfoundedly?
That wouldn't be clickbait though. He at least addressed the question. VSauce's content is popular for asking interesting questions, and taking the audience along for a ride to discover new trains of thought. To me he is more a philosopher of thought. He challenges us to appreciate science in an enjoyable way.
Yeah he usually has a question in the title, and then answers that, and many other similar questions throughout the video.

Well, the problem is that he does a lot of speculation, little of which is grounded in fact, and the content rarely contains new and interesting information.
I mentioned elsewhere Prof. Dr. Harald Lesch, who had a TV show where he does literally that โ he gets asked a question, answers it, and during that answer discusses related philosophical topics that come up, or scientific topics.
But because he has a PhD in two disciplines, he actually doesn't talk bullshit, and has a lot more interesting new facts he can present.
And VSauce has this very nasty habit of making shit up to keep you watching, which Lesch luckily doesn't have to do (as it's a tax funded show)

When has Vsauce ever made anything up? Provide proof or quit talking out of your ass.
I'm seriously questioning wtf you're smoking to think that.
Educational videos are awesome, and I watch a lot of light educational content too, but stating wrong things as facts, or making false implications, or talking about entirely different topics than hinted at in the title is not exactly good.
And complaining about that is justified, isn't it?
If, on the other hand, I said "who needs VSauce, everyone knows their stuff anyway, I learnt it in kindergarten", that'd be /r/iamverysmart material.
So Buzzfeed isn't clickbait either? Because that's literally what Buzzfeed does, talk for 2 sentences about the title, and the rest is random speculation, fringe theories, and conjecture.

Let's be honest here guys! Humans gets attracted to light bulbs just like any other insects. That is the only way to get your attention in a crowded space. So what they are doing is just raising a flag or flashing a light at you to see. This is so natural. Some prey on it and some just do a good job.
thing is when you use the system the quality of your content goes down drastically because no one actually wants to hear your 4 min long intro and have to read your clickbait titles

There's a difference between not blaming someone for something and being that person yourself. Just because I don't blame them doesn't mean I revere them for being scummy, nor does it mean I decide to act that way myself. Also, stealing shit is a lot different than being dishonest with youtube thumbnails.
They deserve punishment for breaking the system, but I put blame on both the individual and the system for allowing it to happen, so that the system can be strengthened as a result.
Yes, those things are not literally the same thing. I'm poking fun at this one quote, not judging severity or making a statement about youtube.

Damn, this is really bad. Especially nowadays where gay rights have much more acceptance amongst the public and using gay as an insult has fallen out of favor.
They've gotten a lot better, and arguably redeemed themselves of any past shenanigans. I really like that channel, but yeah, everyone's guilty of something.
The reply girls didnt just change the thumbnails, they forced youtube to stop allowing video replies. Some of which were actually pretty good and oddly would have stopped reaction channels from becoming a thing.
Athene whored out his gf so much it was ridiculous! Basically every video had her giant cleavage in the thumbnail, and as a result he got hundreds of thousands of views. Nowadays, without tits in the thumbnails, he rarely gets past 50k views.
Tbh vsauce content in names alone has been good cause one that I distinctively remember is "what colour is a mirror?" At the time I didn't know I wanted an answer to that but the moment I saw it I knew I wanted an answer
HOLY SHIT you just opened a rabbit hole of absurd Vsauce videos I never knew existed. Seriously, sort his videos by oldest first. It's.. quite something.
And because of the reply girls, they basically made it impossible for YouTube to be viable for animators.

Kind-of related, but I hate it when I'm trying to find a guide for a character on Overwatch and all I see is the same SFM (Source Filmmaker) model of Widowmaker's shiny, overly-ballooned ass.

There are a lot of high-quality SFM porn artists, but there are even more mediocre ones who don't put in the extra time to polish their work, and yet another group of learners who can't resist publishing stuff that's just bad. It's the nature of the art form - the tools are easy to get, so you get a big range of skill levels.
Steam Workshop doesn't allow for nudity on SFM character models, right? So it's just videos of characters humping and grinding like broken rag dolls being thrown at each other in GMod?

There is a really cool video called "Bad Motherfucker" by Biting Elbows which does this. There is actually about two seconds in the video which does show the screenshot of two girls sunning in bikinis. What's funny is it is probably the least interesting shot of the entire video, the rest is quite awesome so I have a feeling they chose the shot ironically.
Cleavage.. women who show cleavage to get views.. that's pretty pathetic. I mean I like boobs as much as the next guy but not when it's a cheap attempt to grab someone's attention for views.
Yes! As a full time Youtuber whos been at it for 7 years this is one of the worst. People who cry click bait now have no idea how wild west it was in the beginning. Straight up naked thumbnails on a video with nothing at all about it.

I saw an awful thumbnail of this where the image was a still of Black Widow from the Avengers in the scene where she sees Hulk transform for the first time.
Except the image had been photoshopped where it looked like she was nude and wearing no pants. And semen was coming out of her mouth.
WHELP MAYBE I SHOULD CLICK ON THE VIDEO TO SEE SCARLETT JOHANSEN'S NAKED BODY, HUH?
Sort of related to thisโฆ but one thing I find annoying is when a video thumbnail is of an attractive woman and it's actually relevant and in the video but there are still comments that say "OMG clickbait thumbnail, unsubscribed." Prime example is most TwitchFails videos.
It's not clickbait if it's actually in the video, guysโฆ
Charles Trippy does it but with hints of sexual exploitation of his girlfriend to go with it.
Titles are usually "wedgie alert" or "nude photobombing" or "skinny dipping in the jacuzzi" even if those things often happen for 4-10 seconds of a 12 minute vlog. I guess there's a reason it's not named "dinner att George's" or "letting the dogs chase squirrels"

Pathetic maybe but it works. A friend of mine has a channel that has maybe 10 videos on it. One of them is Witcher video with some thumbnail boobs, the others are other AAA games. This one has 200K views, other 9 maybe 200 total.
WatchMojo did that like a week ago. They had some top 10 list of "10 movies we wouldn't watch with a gun to our head" and the thumbnail was the John Wick 2 poster, which of course was never mentioned at all in the video. I remember thinking before I clicked it "really? John wick 2?" And then immediately realizing that I'd been had.

No, copyright law protects parody, not satire. There is a difference.
Parodyโs humor springs from a recognizable allusion to the original work, and is shown where the copyrighted work is the target of the commentary or criticism. Implicit in the act of parody, thus, is the need to mimic, make use of, or target aspects of the original work. In contrast, Satire occurs where the copyrighted work is used as a vehicle to broadly poke fun at another target. Merely targeting the general style of the original work, genre of art to which the original work belongs, or society as a whole, will not serve to make satire an excused fair use.

Satire isn't protected but parody is. Essentially, for it to be ok you have to be making some statement about the IP itself, not using the IP to make some statement about something else.
If Disney are ready to cut PewDiePie loose for one joke they didn't like they should absolutely be lawyering up big time against someone who is repeatedly using their characters to profit off of fetish videos.

Lmao I did that as a kid when I was bored from time to time... first time I heard of this 'challenge' and saw some people getting fucked up from it, only thing I could think was "OH WOW.... glad that never happened to me as a kid!" ... it's like as if someone just came up with the idea to do stupid shit you did as a kid, slap a celebrities name on it, and call it a challenge? "The Melania Trump nose challenge!! Stuff miniature checker peices in your nose and blow them out at full force! This trains your nose muscles to get stronger and also gives you the appearance of a sexy, narrow nose!" What the fuck

Oh so that was the case? In Finland a yellow magazine made a fucking article about "a hoffirying phenomenon, more and more kids want lips like Kylie Jenner" and there's an "expert plastic surgeon" trying to convince that surgeries are not made for minors.
And the whole thing was a motherfucking bottle sucking challenge.

Some youtubers realized they can create nonsense videos for toddlers by dressing up as spider-man and elsa. They're making a profit from young children who binge watch youtube all day on their parents' phones because kids aren't smart enough to skip an ad.
Edit: Forgot to mention that these videos are usually inappropriate (partial nudity, sexual themes, fetish, etc.)

Agreed, this is why I hate the TheLegend27 meme - it isn't making fun of the ad (like a lot of other memes based on ads), it's using it in exactly the context of the ad that the marketing strategists devised. There are enough original memes, we don't need advertisers working for corporations to make memes for us.

Yeah, unlike the tea Kermit thing or other memes from ads, it's for a kinda scummy product and it was designed for this. This is the only proper use of r/hailcorporate IMO.
To be honest I don't think it works that well. I heard that name bunch of times but still have no idea what game it was supposed to promote since I skip ad or just don't click it way before I might figure that out.

Tai Lopez. "here in my garage, you know whats better than this new Lamborghini? The NNNNEEEEEWWWW Kylo ren light up mask! available at your local walmart"
Here in my garaaaaaaaaaaaage. Just bought this new Lamborghini here. Fun to drive up here in the Hollywood Hills. But you know what I like a lot more than knowledge? this new Lamborghini here. But you know what I like a lot more than the new Lamborghini here? My Tedx talk where I talk about this newLamborghinihere. The. The. Thuhuhuhuhuhuuu. In fact I'm a lot more proud of these seven new Hollywood Hills that I had to get installed to hold two thousand new Lamborghinis. :| :o :| :o :| :o
It's like the Buffet Warren billionaire says, "The more you earn the more you drive up here in the Hollywood Hills." In fact, the real reason I keep this Lamborghini, is the real reason I keep this Lamborghini here is that it's a reminder. A reminder that drears are still possible because it wasn't that long ago that I was in a little Lamborghini sleeping on bookshelves in the Hollywood Hills with only forty seven billion dollars in my bank account, and forty seven Lamborghinis in my Lamborghini account, and only forty seven hills in my Hollywood account, and only forty seven Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffets in my Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffet account.
But you know what? Something happened that changed my life. I bumped into a Lamborghini, and another Lamborghini, and a few more Lamborghinis. I found five Lamborghinis. I don't call it money anymore I call it fuel units. You must have enough fuel units. You must have enough Lamborghinis. You must CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS.
I'll see you on my website. It's a quick video and you'll see there absolutely nothing!
Does anyone else think the curse in that ad felt really forced? Like, the company thought they were being so edgy and hip by saying it, but the actor just screwed up the delivery because he was so shocked about what he was going to say?

YouTube for Kids also has those fuck-awful Bad Babies videos. 3 year old has a kid's Fire tablet and what starts off as Bubble Guppies surprise egg videos or Mommy Finger Sing Alongs (don't ask), in two or three clicks becomes screaming 10 year olds dressed as infants climbing on counters and turning on the garden hose in the living room WHILE SCREAMING. Fortunately, I'm always in the same room so as soon as I hear that goddamned screaming, I take the device. Seems to be working, but when as he figures out how to mute the sound I'm screwed. He skips ads like a champ, but the volume control is tricky for fat little fingers when the device is in the case. If I ever find those Bad Baby Bitches, I may kill them. If you're on Reddit, Bad Babies, run up on me - I'm ready. Fuckers. Let's see who screams.
I believe YouTube for Kids now allows you to block videos. Not sure if you can block entire channels, (and even if you can, there's really no end to the mindless annoying channels), but if there's "that one video" (or two, or five), it's a start.
Thank you. I don't let mine watch bad baby vids either.

I refuse to allow my little sisters to watch them either. What I did was make a long, long playlist of over 300 "approved" videos, because for a while, they were into watching those strange Spider-Man and Elsa videos that were completely inappropriate. Now they're constricted to the ones I allow.
they're only 6 and 8, so they haven't yet figured out how to get out (well, maybe the 8-year-old has, but she hasn't watched anything yet.) It will be a sad day when they figure it out.
I definitely dont want my kids seeing an ad for Viagra single packs

FYI there is some pretty fucked up and twisted shit on the youtube kids app as well. Seriously, as long as the video has something kid related it's allowed in.
For example I was browsing it with my 2 year old and ended up on some homemade cartoon with mickey mouse and friends. There was high pitched laughing, crying and screaming that sounded all distorted and fucked up. The plot involved mickey and Minnie's baby being killed by Pete. Luckily I took the kindle from him before it got too disturbing.
So yeah, fucked up shit on the "kids" app. What's worse is it won't even let blacklist channels, which would 100% fix the problem.
Right? There's something sinister about all their videos. I definitely think there is something funny about that family.
I don't even bother with Youtube anymore because of all the strange Spiderman/Elsa videos and adults opening up eggs with whispery voices. That, or children getting massive amounts of toys (Ryan's Toy Review, anyone?) or parents filming their kids do weird stuff.
I saw a video where an older girl (9+ years old) was wearing diapers and pretending to be a baby. She pulled out a bunch of cleaning supplies from underneathโ the sink and her dad came in and spent 2 minutes of the video telling her she was a bad baby... Like who the fuck is the intended audience for these videos? And this was a different person then whoever does the Bad Baby videos. And stuff like that always pops up in the recommended list of the toddler videos.

Everytime i find these videos i block the channel. But it never ends. Their is always creepy families doing inappropriate things with the kids. I dont get it. Do these people work? What do they get out of the videos? The whole thing is disturbing.
Exactly! What really gets me is that they always look like well-to-do families in suburban areas. They always have big, really nice houses and superficially look like normal people.
Like does Joe go work as an accountant all day and come home to film his daughters playing with a giant tub of melted chocolate to post on YouTube?? And it's even worse when the whole family is involved. Nothing creepier than mom wearing an Elsa costume pretending to cast evil spells on kids and dad (Dressed as Spiderman, of course). All while nursery songs plays in the background for 40 minutes.
I'm always disturbed and fascinated by YouTube Kids.

I started adblocking youtube a few years ago when I was holding my 4 year old daughter and playing bugs bunny clips for her and a fucking horror movie ad with a jump scare came on. Now I don't know who decides what ads go where but horror ads don't go on kids cartoons you fucks.
A few friends of mine use YouTube kid channels to entertain their kids. If I hear baby shark or that Mommy finger/Daddy finger song ONE. MORE. TIME! I'LL..... sit there and take it because I miss seeing my friends who are too busy cause they reproduced and value the time I spend with them.

Mommy finger, mommy finger where are you.. Here I am, here I am, how do you do?
Sorry.
Okay I have to be honest the first time I saw Jonny Jonny I was creeped the fuck out and confused. Like what the hell even is this right? And then one day my wife said "watch this!" And Went to my 2 year old and said, "Jonny Jonny..." and he came back with "Yes Papa!" And my heart melted. So whatever aliens created that video to brainwash us have burrowed their way into my soul.
I remember the old videos on tv. "Don't yoy put it in your mouth. Uh huh. Till you ask someone you love... uh huh. If it's okay to eat , LIKE A MUFFIN OR A PEACH!
How does every kid find this goddamn song? I did find a chrome extension that will let you block entire channels though. It's called Video Blocker and it's saved my sanity.
I never heard this song until I was waiting in line for a roller coaster at Everland and my 3 friends and wife started singing it to pass the time. I love it now!
I got sick of that crap, so I introduced my daughter to Pokรฉmon, Digimon and Sailor Moon. That's all she'll watch now. And every time a new Pokรฉmon game comes out we play together. She not Sun, I got Moon and we trade everything cool that she needs. Her favorite Pokรฉmon is Sylveon.
Oh fuck my 2.5 year old is addicted to that song. I hate it. We just took a 14 hour road trip and she listened to it for half of it. I nearly drove off the road.
As a parent, thanks for not giving up on your friends. I had kids very young, married my wife when I was 18 because we were raised super conservative and had no sex Ed. That plus typical teenage thinking landed us with two kids. I worked forty hours a week on a grill and then went to college at night. Didn't have time to see friends often and only a handful would visit when invited. We have much better friends these days, but the ones that were there for me then are what I consider my best friends.

ahhh what was that post a few weeks ago??
We're becoming a rare breed.
Born in the 1980's, still don't have kids!
I was like damn yo, that's some truth. Me and my girl, god it gives me shudders and I probably really shouldn't have children, but sort of have conversations like, well if it happened before 35, right? Yeah def has to happen before 35. Actually our child talk started with, is it ethical to not adopt living in America? Then I get why I'd want my own kid though, I got some dope genes, sort of. Maybe a bias view but, you know.
Anyway, yeah I know what it feels like. I mean I love kids. Other people's kids. For now, maybe.
There was something like this in the late 90's/early-mid 2000's. I think it was by AOL. It wouldn't prevent kids from accessing the regular internet, but it would sure be better than nothing.
Plenty of people have like 3 tablets in a single household these days. Phones aren't the only device.

I got an iPhone at 12, but it was a really cheap old one that came with whatever my father was getting free. And it was only 8 gigabytes. And I got it as a reward for getting accepted into a prestigious science program at a college hours away.
So a kid having an iPhone isn't really that bad, just as long as it's not an iPhone 7+ with 128 gigabytes and an unlimited plan. That's so excessive.

12?!?! i thought i was spoiled, i got my first phone when i was like 16. my kid isnt getting a phone when hes 12, but im sure culture will change by then since hes only 4 months old right now.
by high school (so like age 14), even today, almost everyone has a smartphone to the point where you'd be the odd one out if you didn't. definitely at least 95% from my experience in a suburban community. even by middle school well over half of the kids have phones, if i had to guess at least 80%. i know it seems really weird but i would at least seriously look into the idea of getting your kid a phone even when he's 12, though you might end up choosing against it. i would get him one before 16, though. it almost is necessary by then (and it'll become obvious if it is) because you'll want to be able to communicate with him wherever he is.
A better way to phrase it would be "I don't know why any parent would let their kid browse regular YouTube without supervision. Also they can trust their kid at a certain age to hopefully just stay away from those types of videos because they have been taught that those things are bad for you.

The YouTube for kids AP on the Kindle is garbage (at least it was last time I tried it). I let both my kids watch way too much YouTube and just clicking over to settings there's a filter inappropriate content toggle or something similar. It keeps out most of the junk.
We just don't let the kids watch it if we're not in the room. Never had a problem with all the toddler nonsense my daughter watches but the boy loves FNAF so sometimes he wanders somewhere he shouldn't. It's actually been a good opportunity to teach him responsibility. He knows if he's watching something inappropriate he loses the Kindle.
In the same motion, be careful. My 4 year old has found his way to some sketchy stuff, heavy swearing, questionable content, all within a matter of a couple videos away from some paw patrol and Pokemon videos. He gets on average 30 minutes on his iPad a day, and still manages to get to the "kids dark side of YouTube."
I've even gone through and sorted and tried to lockout some videos. Thankfully my boy wants to watch the episodes only and not "the weird stuff" as he puts it.
I somehow landed on a video of people in africa being chopped up and terrible sexual acts on youtube...not even trying either I just somehow stumbled into it. Why in the fuck would you let your young ass kid on that.

We stopped letting our kids use YouTube kids because literally all that dark stuff is on it too, it's just way easier to get to. It's supposed to be all OK things, but after hearing a song about mickey mouse not having any parents because he ate them I started poking around deeper and all that shit is in there. Spiderman beheading the Hulk. Elsa melting and drinking Olaf. All sorts of fucked up shit.
That's how my 3 year old got super into watching real police chases. It's amazing what they can get to when they start at a video showing cartoon dogs song the ABCs.

The problem with youtube for kids is you can't pick the video resolution or downllad offline, which is kind of an important thing in a place with terrible internet like mine. I just keep checking "not interested" for every elsa/spiderman video i see on the suggestion list, until the algorithm fixes and shows only nursery rhymes.

There are multiple 'spiderman and elsa' and other Youtube 'childrens' videos that get weirdly perverted. Elsa eating shit off a toilet rim (probably not actual shit), spiderman raping elsa, grabbing the elsa actor sexually, elsa and anna incest, minecraft porn, minecraft school shootings. I did some digging when I first learned about these channels. Many of these videos have tens of millions of views. I was disgusted and weirded out what kids are watching on Youtube. I was even more disgusted and weirded out that there are adult Youtubers making this shit for money.
Right? When I was a kid, I was looking at wholesome content online, like rotten dot com, checking out rotten dead bodies and balls of penises and tubgirl.

A couple of years ago when we just had a desktop computer, I would forget to log out of my YouTube account. So at times when my nephews (one about 5 and the other about 3-4 at the time) were on, they would either watch channels I subbed to (which weren't kid friendly) or just watch all of these "Power Rangers vs X-Men" skit things.
Worst part was those skit videos would pop up in my recommendations
My kids were watching minecraft videos on youtube and I walked away for a minute. When I came back it was a video tutorial of how to give a blowjob.

OMG THANK YOU. my ex lets our 5 year old watch regular YouTube because he can't put YouTube kids on the tv. And when she asks to watch it on tv l, instead of the tablet, he can't be bothered to parent her enough to say no or supervise. And she has gotten in trouble for accidentally (or not who fucking knows) watching things she should not.
Makes me so damn pissed off. Because when she's with him I can't stop it. And he's too lazy to do so.
no parent should let their kids watch those spiderman and elsa videos tbh. way too much non consensual boobie touching and weirdness.

I let my 7 year old use regular youtube but he is subscribed to cetain channels and has to ask if he wants to watch somebody who isn't on his list yet. Also if he isn't sure about a video he knows to ask an adult (that isn't my older brother the bad influence). I suppose it helps when they can read though.
I cannot comprehend what is going on in that video. People poorly dress up as two famous character, do nonsense, get massive views, ok weird. Then it gets sexual. Maybe I am too drunk for this but this was not meant to be, there are wrongs happening that I can't explain.
The sexual shit makes kids watch more episodes. Kids find bums fascinating and sex transfixes them because they don't understand it. The producers know this. It's really fucky.
You could probably get to them clicking through on normal youtube but the stuff in youtube kids is semi-curated. You can't find that channel on there even with search enabled (you can outright disable search and the kid is locked to whatever you sub to only).
I'm sad to say that this is my 3 year old brother, all because he's become so fucking self centered that if dad doesn't give him his "youtu" (YouTube) he screams loud enough that the neighbors complain. These channels are pretty much all he watches (along with infinite variations of that fucking finger family song). It's driving me insane.
You need to act now, in my opinion. This is the first time I've come across this stuff and it's gonna lead to some fucked up kids. They will be re-enacting this stuff in the playground.
My parents are already trying. They're trying to give him the phone less and less, and have bought quite a few toys for the kid recently. Hell I personally bought him some Mega Blocks, and he loves those things almost as much as his phone. Although now he cries at night if mom won't let him play since it's his bedtime

Yeah I was expecting that part of it to be in the top comments but it's been ignored by the other comments, which is odd because the sexualizing/fetishizing is why it's so disturbing. They're seriously messed up. You would think Youtube and parents would have more control over what kids are watching millions of times.
The sad thing is that the original videos were completely safe for kids and obviously made by someone who knew a little bit about story telling, entertaining children and video editing. But now it is all copycats who saw the view count, bought the same costumes, and filmed themselves doing whatever outrageous bullshit they thought would get them some of that adsense money.
Dammit, just put on some regular Spider-Man cartoons or Disney princess movies for your kids. I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but I'm glad I watched so much TV as a kid. It's a whole lot better than the kids stuff on YouTube.

The worse ones have inappropriate thumbnails - like spiderman in his underwear or elsa tied up and gagged or something.
If you think that's bad, they found another incredibly disturbing "kids" channel. I guarantee this guy dissects live animals based on the content, and he is definitely attempting to inspire children to do the same. Most disturbing thing I've seen on YouTube.
Piss plus nudity plus two adults who live together. How is this stuff aimed towards kids?

The only thing wrong with it is that the videos are always of a sexual nature.
Nothing X-rated but most times the characters are in their underwear and pretending to pee on someone, or the story involves someone stealing some's clothes and leaving them naked and crying.

Yeah, I remember looking into the highest-earning Youtubers, and this one lady who unboxes Disney toys (mostly Frozen merch) and talks about them in a foreign accent was like a million-dollar earner. All her videos have titles and descriptions that look like an SEO-optimizing program vomited into a toddler's toy chest.

The fact that there's toddlers already binge watching youtube scares the shit out of me. Here I am thinking my life's is being impacted by binge watching and poor life decisions and yet here's the next generation, training and studying to take my place as a shitty youtube watcher/consumer. We're all screwed
When my niece learned to skip ads before she could even read, and sighed when they couldn't be skipped, her parents decided it'd be a good idea to decrease her time spent in front of a tablet.

I had a friend who worked for one of those companies where you could hire a Disney princess for your kid's birthday. Apparently she regularly go paired with Spiderman... Wonder if it's related
It just any Youtubers. It's the fucking bradberries. The same shitty scum fuckers who go around harassing people (sorry I mean pranking.) example: made a craigslist ad and had some guy come meet them up. They pull up in ski masks, litterally grab the guy and drag him into the van and while he is screaming in the backseat they try and explain it's a social experiment and that they are trying to raise awareness about the dangers of buying stuff of Craigslist.
Honestly... it's not good content... but it's just to entertain kids/make ad money. The principles behind it areawful, but I doubt the view or the 'actors'/'producers' can even comprehend them.
I know the videos you are speaking of, they are right up there with the "Surprise Egg" videos. Horrible nonsense! You are wrong about the toddlers though. My 2 year old doesn't binge watch or anything but we taught her to skip the ads on videos shortly after she turned 1 and started to want to watch.
My niece and nephew who are three and five skip YouTube ads all the time. It's pretty funny, they already know they have no interest in what is brewing presented.
There's some really really bizarre stuff for kids on YouTube. My friend has a toddler who will find endless entertainment in grown men dressed as babies having pretend tantrums
My not even 2 year old nephew will literally pout and cry when youtube ads interrupt his Pogo youtube videos. I'm pretty sure an inanimate carbon rode would skip an ad if it could
Fuck. I'm one of those parents. Sometimes I'll end up watching some of those videos with my son or daughter. The Elsa/Spider-Man ones are annoying, but the worst ones are the HobbyKids YouTube channels. It's just parents spoiling the fuck out of their kids. They first started off with just a few toys and reviewing them in their small house. It was all cool. Now they have videos out almost everyday. Spoiling their kids and showing off those toys in their expensive cars at their Beverly Hills home. I banned that channel from my house.
Shit you described the kids around me in shopping trolleys as their parents push them around.

There are other videos made within what looks like a game with spiderman, venom, hulk, elsa etc. It's shit but my 3yo is addicted to these videos. I don't let him watch youtube alone anymore.
fortunately the ads are completely unrelated to kids stuff, like cars, perfume, women health etc.
According to Youtube's "Creator Academy", there is only one out of seven available ad types that will get the content creator revenue when viewed on a mobile device.
Edit: What counts as a mobile device to them and what not remains unspecified.

Kids definitely know how to skip ads. Maybe not all kids but my nephew has been skipping ads since he was like, 1 and a half.
I work in a preschool and we have a before and after school program for the elementary kids that go to school next door. I sat with them for an hour as they watched a video by FGTV and during the entire video 4 different ads came up. I realized I could make a killing just being my goofy self and playing video games for kids to watch.
Yes omg my 2 years old refuses to watch any cartoons but can watch these weird stuff all day. Like some witch kidnapping kids and spiderman coming in to rescue. Either those or videos with kids smashing toy spiders.
My 3 year old is hooked on a channel that uses a Spiderman skin in GTA to drive trains around and shit. He parks cars, puts them on trains, sometimes does jumps but he never hits anyone.
I let my kid watch it because I find it funny. We always watch it with him and shut it off when autoplay tries to take us to the dark underbelly.
How old is he? I don't understand how kids can watch that crap. I mean I don't think power rangers were the pinnacle of quality for what a toddler could watch, but I think it would be better then watching spiderman drive trains around in gta.
Kids will watch the strangest stuff for reasons you will never understand.
We sometimes have the Smile Song playing on loop in my house simply because my 5 month old finds it calming. She can go from dead painful screams to complete pacifism just upon hearing the first few chords.
to add to the other comments, kids get drawn into it when they search something related to the movies, but copyright so there isnt anything but weird ass videos of grownups touching elsa's breasts
Why do you let them watch that stuff? When I have kids I'm going to let them watch DVDs of the kids shows I grew up on, until they're old enough to decide for themselves.
[deleted] ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 12:56:06 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Because they like it. YouTube kids doesn't have the horrible stuff. It's usually just Elsa and Spider-Man messing around with the Joker, or Spider-Man and the Joker duking it out, sometimes Hulk.
Why would I force them to watch shows from my own childhood? That seems weird.
EDIT: BTW, skip the parenting advice and eliticism until you actually have kids, please.

There's this channel that makes nonsense, half-naked, boardering-on-fetish stuff featuring people dressed as Snow White, Elsa and Spider-Man. There was one where he snaps his fingers to make Snow White and Elsa in binikins, and they cry and then Elsa takes Spider-Man's pants, then the girls fart on Spider-Man.
It's really terrifying. And it appeals to kids because it's their favorite characters, but probably half the audience is terrifying adults with odd fetishes.

In honesty, kids pick up on that "only for a limited time" bullshit more than anyone else.

Mainly because kids aren't experienced enough to know that "only for a limited time" means it'll be back next year or whenever ingredient prices drop below a certain amount. Like subways "limited time only pastrami" that comes out every year.

Nor of this universe; it's physical properties are extremely strange. Despite being consumable by humans, it somehow exists outside of the bounds of space and time, and violates the laws of thermodynamics. It is said that after the destruction of the universe, humanity asked McRib one question:
Can entropy be reversed? McRib replied. "Let there be light.", and soon a new universe, one filled with hope, joy, and the Shamrock Shake came into fruition, from the last vestiges of a dying star.
Due to the controversy of it, and how it voids the laws of physics, many regard the creation of the universe from the sweet, juicy, tenderloins of its patty, with signature barbecue sauce, with controversy and anger.

A 6 year old can read enough to navigate youtube, so let's compare a 6 year old to a 25 year old. For the 25 year old, 1 year is 4% of their life, it's pretty small and they've waited that long before. Most 6 year olds can't remember much from a year ago, it's 16% of their life.
Actually the human brain only develops to the point that it can store permanent memories around 3-4 years old so it will be even worse for the 6 year old.
I thought they just change it up every month. I don't go there frequently enough, but I've seen atleast 2 different 5$ box options every time I've been there for the last few years.
Taco bell employee. The cravings deal is available all the time (or at least has been for the last 2 years). Its just not always shown on the menu, just ask them for it.

I remember throwing a fit as a kid when a movie I wanted to see was out of the theaters. My mom said no big deal, we'll just watch it when it comes out on video (this was in the VHS days). I said no, it won't come out on video because the ads said "only in theaters". My mom was like, trust me, it's a Disney movie, it WILL come out on video. I remember being dead certain that I was right and she was wrong. Ah, childhood innocence.

It actually has nothing to do with the intelligence of the kids. Advertising is an ever-improving industry and every generation gives marketers loads of new data they use that data to make the advertising more focused and more effective.
It's also directly correlated with how much more media modern kids consume compared to just a few generations ago.

OH GOD MOM ONLY FOR A LIMITED TIME GET IN THE CAR WE HAVE TO BUY IT NOW
My Dad calls this the 'poverty tax' (no offense to your dad ofc). According to him, poor people actually end up spending more money on day to day non-luxury items than "rich" people (or people who grew up financially secure) because they can't resist the sales gimmicks shops put on.
They just gotta buy that buy one get one free pair of garden hoses even if they don't need them because it's a deal, and that money which could have been collecting interest in the bank is instead rotting away in their garages or pantries as a ton of useless junk they didn't even want.
Thanks for the interest and reply. My father actually purchased a house for ยฃ9,000 (with the help of a ยฃ4k grant to 'do up' the old house to help regenerate the area) in 1976 after working 80-90 hour weeks. He was a butcher at the time, but in rebuilding the roof of the house himself he learned to be a roofer.
He sold the house a few years after i was born, and bought an old Victorian house just up the road. This house is now worth from .25 to .35 million. Dad is 68 and still a roofer. He recently got a letter from our local Parish[definition] offering him the chance to re-render an Early Victorian church wall (such things are protected in England) for the price he quoted. Not many tradesmen get given such responsibility, and certainly not lightly.
He has two pensions and he earns enough that he hasn't had to raise his prices despite everyone else in the area having to so do. For him, work has never dried up. He has all the money he could ever need, and is still working.
But i recently had to go to our local Vodafone store to have them cancel two of his four contracts - these folk, these villains, will keep trying to sell him contracts with the promise of 'saving money' on a new phone. If he purchased the phone outright, it'd cost him ยฃ500+, but if he takes out a 24-month contract, he gets the phone and 'free minutes' for 'just ยฃ35 a month'. I had to explain to him that he'd be paying ยฃ840 for the same phone over time, and at the end of the two years that phone would be worth ยฃ200 at most. So why not buy a ยฃ200 phone outright?: "Because your brother needs a new phone".

I remember being little and watching the Saturday TV movies on the local over the air affiliates and every commercial break had one of two adds from a local window supply company. One add was them starting a timer for their special offer. The add in the next commercial break was them saying that you missed the special offer but to be on the look out for when their next special offer began.
It gave little six year old me anxiety that my family might be missing out on this amazing offer for new energy efficient windows. It also made me feel bad for the people who answered the phones because clearly they were watching the same channel and had to be synchronizing a stop watch to align with the add timer.
Then you get older and realize that "for a limited time" usually means " we are going to bring this shit back a year from now" so you dont care as much if at all... unless its pumpkin spice or Wawa gobblers

Do you think that some adults really aren't conscious of what an ad is trying to make them feel like? I mean with political ads it's really obvious most of the time. Interestingly enough, even if you do know what the ad is trying to do, it still kinda works...
Yep, kid thinks "mummy has to save her money, but that must not be very much money, so I get to eat mcdonalds tonight!" Then kid tells mum, and not only is the content of the ad being delivered to someone with spending power, the ad now comes with a free guilt trip, and the target has pay for kids as well. There's a lower chance of the ad reaching the target, but the target is more likely to buy, and will buy more.

You joke, but this is it. My friend's little brother watches (free) chess videos for kids non-stop. The two favourite phrases he's picked up so far are "Pawns may be small, but they can be heroes!" and "You can unlock more content with a premium subscription".
Really? I would almost make the opposite rule and say if you ask me again a week from now, I'll get it for you. Even as an adult, most urges and cravings don't last very long. If you still want something or even remember that you want something a week later, it means you definitely want it.
But yes, I can completely see your point that it reduces whining, and I will probably do a mix of both because I doubt my kids will remember the tactics I used anyway.
Your way may actually be a better approach as it uses positive reinforcement instead of negative. I wonder now if using the caveat that they not mention it beforehand would also be helpful without diminishing the positive nature, maybe it would apply a good balance of positive and negative.

Sometimes you don't want to. There is a very real urge to spoil the everloving shit out of my son. He likes Moana? Guess who gets every Moana toy I run across in stores. At least once a week I'm in a store and say, "oh man, you know what would make him so happy?"

This 100%. Advertisments are not always for the human its for but rather the human who is going to make that human pay for it.
100% agree'd. 4 kids in my family and there was one rule that was NEVER deviated from. Never.
Ask for something more than twice and you WILL. NOT. GET. IT.
Ask for something at the check out. You will not get it. Be helpful and be patient and SOMETIMES - ONLY SOMETIMES THEY WILL OFFER TO GET US SOMETHING. If we ask or pester, nothing.
There was 100% consistency. Shopping was quick. We all knew the rules as long as I could remember, the second we were being shits, we knew not to ask. The second we made a fuss - nothing for a week. We knew the rules and they were always enforced and we were never given to.
Tell that to my mother. When I was a toddler, I had less say in family spending than a Democrat in the Republican-held Senate has in confirming cabinet positions. And it certainly wasn't for lack of trying.
Grow a pair and discipline your kids. I didnt eat mcdonalds till i was 16 and knew not to damn well ask for it. Thats the problem with participation medals and snow flakes.

Marketing gets ingrained in kid's heads. Even if it's not something in their demographic the idea of the brand will seem more familiar and comfortable to them as they grow older and become spenders themselves. You grow up your whole life hearing about how good all american Chevy trucks are, you're going to be more likely to buy one in the future.
No one actually gave you the real answer, but as someone who has advertised on YouTube it really just comes down to AdWords having shitty targeting.
I can't tell you how many hours a day I could spend looking through a YouTube placements report blocking stupid nursey rhyme videos. It's a constant fight, and really wish Google would improve the experience for advertisers.

Well, if it's a toy commercial, there's a good chance they'll pester their parent to buy that specific toy for them. And for the parent, it's easier to just pay 10 dollars to make their kid happy than to have a nuanced discussion about the social implications of marketing and the virtues of being a responsible consumer.
There have been studies showing that kids even influence the cars which their parents buy. So if the car companies can make the car seem cool to the kids then those kids will tell their parents it's cool when the parents talk about getting a car or go to car lot.
But beyond immediate influence over purchasing power, if they brand the kids early the kids will then later purchase and consume the products for themselves when they get older. So the marketers are in it for the long haul and looking years in advance.
Kids repeat EVERYTHING they hear. If they can repeat simple ad phrases, bang, you have a marketing conduit sleeper spy in the household. Kids are key marketing tools as bad as that sounds.

Toy companies often sponsor the creators, who make videos about or with their product. Kid sees the toy, looks cool, kid asks for it. Might get it. Basically modern Transformers or Pokemon. The entire show is a vehicle for merchandise.
It's why my kid likes shopkins, tiny worthless plastic figures. He saw them, they looked neat, wanted them, got them for Christmas/birthday, etc.
That's how they indoctrinate you. Puts on tinfoil hat

My 7 year old uses the youtube kids app. You would be amazed at the ad dollars spent by some companies. She only gets on it when we let her which is about 3 or 4 hours a week tops. But when she does man the ads that play are crazy.

Might be a lot more diabolical than OSI. Lego? Candy?
I looked up a power rangers video the other day and there's actually a good amount of kid targeted ads nowadays. I don't think there was as much variety in ads a couple years ago. So by titling a video about something that's fit for a child, the algorithms can match ads specific or your content. Profit.
Afaik the companies don't know who's watching the adverts* but they don't really care as watching the adverts makes them money and money makes them rich
*they do know who's claiming to watch the advert if your logged into a Google account

The thing I don't get is, how the hell do ad companies think it is beneficial to have small children seeing their 15 second ads?
It's not the big companies that are trying to get kids to see their ads, its the youtubers who get paid per add seen.
It's a combo of (1) the ad companies do not have the ability to filter the ads out based on demographic on some platforms; (2) advertisers do not care to filter it out (the poor dude/dudette who is running the campaign doesn't care as long as the campaign gets the estimated ROI.
Before my son could even talk, he knew how to watch videos on YouTube & the dish dvr. He would pause it, come get me or his mom, and point at the screen. Mostly Chuck e cheese, great Wolf Lodge, & Lego toys.
It's so adorable that it works on a sappy dad like me.
On top of what everyone else said, the people who let the ipad babysit their kids are the same kind of people who will buy whatever the kid wants to shut them up.
It could be because kids tap the screen a lot. My two year old was at the Amazon page almost about to order a toy car from a video. He couldn't have, but the YouTube channel got the click on the ad.
Even though I was born an American my parents were immigrants. I realized I have had a different childhood compared to some other Americans. My family doesn't celebrate nearly as many American holidays nor think it's necessary to buy gifts for almost every one.
So it might not be obvious to you but lots of family buy stuff year round for kids. Sometimes, kids aren't watching the videos alone either.

They don't. But ad companies are go-betweens which offer 'increased sales' to real world business owners. So business owners pay money in the expectation that they will be increasing their sales without knowing exactly which websites/videos their ads appear on, and then the advertising agencies just slap a load of their adverts on the web using 'special targeted software' and make huge amounts of money: it makes no difference to them whether the clients actually get increased sales. Well, theoretically the more sales an ad agency provides the more repeat business they get: I don't have any proof of this, but I suspect a lot of ad companies are little better than homeopathic medicine peddlers: if it doesn't produce more sales then they just tell the client that they need to advertise more. If it does increase sales then it was probably a coincidence but they can take credit. So either way they get repeat business anyway.
Not saying that internet advertising can never increase sales, but to my mind a lot of the industry is a con for gullible business owners who aren't very internet savvy. Most internet marketing agencies don't even get paid for increasing their clients' revenue: they get paid for delivering advert views, and for delivering clicks on said adverts, and they claim that this will increase revenues through increased exposure. But this belief is more likely to be held by business owners than by marketing specialists since it has been increasingly exposed as an imperfect theory to put it kindly. After all, ad views are usually just due to an advert appearing on the same page as the actual content on a website, and clicks linking to a company's website are usually just accidental, and so 'exposure' alone is very very unlikely to increase revenue in many situations.
Which is why the industry has been moving towards first 'click through rates' (specific clicks on adverts rather than just adverts happening to appear alongside content) and now complex website interaction analytics which can distinguish between real clicks and accidental clicks. This isn't so much due to ad agencies getting more efficient, since it loses them money after all to put restrictions on which ad views they get paid for: rather it is their reaction to clients getting more clued up on what they are actually getting for their money and choosing ad agencies that aren't going to rip them off. But this is still an ongoing development and there remains a lot of inefficiency, which suits ad agencies and third party advert hosters like Youtube and Facebook down to the ground.
Can verify, have a couple toddler cousins I look after. Worst part is actually how I have to push her away from certain search topics because it becomes either porn or inappropriate
I really want to murder whoever the pathetic cocksucker is who makes perfectly redubbed episodes of my little pony but with swear words. My kid is playing on the phone in the back while Im driving, then i hear a perfect impression of applejack say 'what in the fuck!' I totally had a Sheila Brofvolski 'WAT WAT WAT' stroke. Some sweet five year old has her good time ruined by a pathetic edgelord wizard, this is why we can have nice things
Yeah, but for most kids shows? Your "fandom" is generally much more sexual than fandoms for other shows intended for children. Not saying all of you are into that, but you can't deny that certain people in your fandom take rule 34 to another level, and that there are far more of those people for MLP than there are for most anything else on the kids channels. Also, Google is pretty smart, but detecting the difference between MLP and MLP porn can be pretty damn difficult for a computer to do.
I wouldn't know. But why is that an issue? Back when I was actually part of the fandom being a bring just meant being an older, most likely male, fan of the show.
If people want to take that into a sexual realm, more power to them. Life is too short to care. I just like the colorful pony show.

Caillou is a despicable, spineless 4-year-old boy who cannot do anything. He can't grow hair, not because he has cancer or progeria, but because he sucks, and even his own body recognizes that he does not deserve hair or food or love.

I have no idea who he is, but the way you described him sounds like Charlie Brown.
[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:47:24 on March 18, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
No. Caillou is much, much worse. Every waking moment in his life seems to be a constant tantrum. He acts like a little shit all the time. This is doubtlessly accompanied with loud screaming (ah, the shrill sound of a screeching bald fuckface on a Saturday morning.) His parents always proceed to give him what he wants. Always.
Of course, seeing this, kids repeat it. And then you have a bunch of whiny, screaming kids.
It doesn't help that the show's colors are garish and much too bright, the animation sucks and the names are all super weird. His parents are called Doris and Boris. Doris looks exactly like Boris but with a different color turtleneck and longer hair.
I hate Caillou. OP is right. He does not deserve love.
It's just a terrible show for parents. And when so many kid shows slip in some entertainment for adults (see my username for a reference), there's just no reason to watch it.
That's why Arthur is always going to be my favorite show. A lot of the themes and topics they discuss are relevant for all age groups, albeit it is still mainly made for kids. The one thing that would draw in adults though is that they parody modern, relevant pop culture things.
I don't know how well other shows like Dragon Tales stood the test of time, but Arthur in my book will always hold its weight.
Also why he gets access to all that cool stuff everywhere he goes. Other adults like train conductors, museum people, etc. feel bad for him and give him special treatment.

My younger brother can now sing the finger family song in three different languages perfectly... English, Thai, and Japanese... He doesn't know it in Danish, his native language
Man my kid is a Netflix expert and I'm ok with that, but I had to take YouTube off our iPad because I was horrified at the sheer volume of ads we were bombarded with just to find a couple of fun videos.
I'm fine with tv watching. Tv is great. Tv let's me make dinner without having little hands get caught in the oven. But ads? Hell no. My two year old does not need to be bombarded with ads every thirty seconds.

I put Youtube toddler videos on my chromecast while my kid and I play legos. Although we primarily watch channels like Fizzy Toy show which are just really commercials for toys.
Tbh, a lot of people like to cry that parents are letting YouTube babysit kids. But it's no different than putting on Nick. My kid likes them, they are mildly entertaining sometimes, they're free and short.
The problem isn't YouTube babysitting, it's a select few shitty parents who let a screen babysit their kids. It's not a YouTube problem. If YouTube didn't exist these parents would be using something else to skip out on their kids.
Those videos are actually awful for kids. Kids' shows have research and thought put into them in order to stimulate the kids' brains. Most YouTube kid stuff is low effort, mindless garbage.

It doesn't even have to be like that. Toddlers are repetitive by nature, they will watch the same thing over and over and over. And there's many of them. So take a whole bunch of kids, even if they watch that video only once in a while, the video would have a lot of hits.

Not just babysitting. I was watching my friend's toddler (Sorta. She was already 4yo) for a few hours, and at some point she just said 'let's watch youtube', typed in 'my little pony', and I just sat with her while she watched 10 or so random videos about it. A lot of it didn't even have anything to do with the show. I just did what you'd do with a kid reading a picture book, but it was with youtube vids of bronies.
My other friend just plays youtube channels of kids shows nonstop for his toddler, just like you'd play the TV in the background back in the day. I imagine it's quite common these days.
My 3yr old loves the iPad and YouTube. We use it when me and my wife are busy with house chores, combined with some TV. It's actually really educational and productive for him - in the right amount of course

my niece fucking loves daddy finger and we all agree its the creepiest shit. The spider man elsa stuff is still even creepier. We banned the spiderman one but daddy finger is still allowed. Just not the creepy on of the guy eating icecream off his fingers and offering it to you.
This abomination is creepier than anything else on YouTube. This guy should be arrested, I'm sure he dissects living animals based on the vid H3h3 reacted to.
There also somewhat depraved in a sense. Like, they contain needles, shit, pregnancies, it feels more like some sort of fetish experiment rather than a kids show.
It's really sad in a way because they're advertising this sort of shit to the next generation of kids. These kids are literally going to learn that shit and they're probably going to do some weird shit. It's disgusting.
I admit when I was a kid, we often make our dolls and figurines do some weird stuff and play weird simulation games with them using anything we could find as a house.
It's just that seeing adults do all that for children instead of the children playing with the toys themselves is very...unsettling,

They're using weird and off-colour shit from the adult world in order to pander to that basic curiosity that kids have - like a much more sinister version of clickbait. The reason it seems all fetishy is because they're trying to show it in a way that's innocent enough for it to slip through the parents radar unnoticed, or at least innocent enough to make it hard for people to pin down just whats so fucked up about it.
The video they're discussing is going to inspire many kids to do very fucked up things. I really hope his channel gets banned because it's beyond disturbing.

I would always make my three year old daughter change those horrific videos. she would click a video and say "is this a bad one? " after a month she was pretending to be pregnant elsa, there is no way you can block YouTube users (if you block them it only prevents them from viewing you) so I took YouTube off of everything she hasn't watched it since. I honestly wonder how this generation is going to be impacted by watching this creepy malicious stuff.
Same thing with my daughter! I ended up just banning YouTube for both my kids. I haven't checked out the YouTube for kids app yet but I've been planning on it. It sucks that these people are targeting kids with these creepy videos.
I went to download the kids YouTube app and the reviews said there is no filter, just easier to navigate. They said they still had the weird dolls throwing up and pooping. We ended up getting an amazon tablet and paying $2 a month for inclusive kids apps, videos and games that are all completely appropriate. One time when she was watching YouTube the song was educational, but when I looked it was horrible cartoons giving shots to each other. They specifically made the song good so parents wouldn't second guess what they were watching. I know people who defended their kids watching it calling it "funny"....it's scary.
You can block channels to prevent them from showing up in your recommended videos. When you go to their channel, click on the "about" tab. In the top right hand corner you'll see a flag icon. Click on that and a drop down will come up. Click on "block user" and you'll never see that channel in your recommended videos again.
Of course, if you actively seek out a video by a channel you've blocked, you'll be able to watch it. But their videos won't show up in the recommended videos.

Nope, they don't, at least not for me they don't. For a while, YouTube kept recommending me anti-SJ channels, and I had no idea why. I am on youtube to watch makeup tutorials, WhatCulture Wrestling, and old Janet Jackson videos, why would I even be remotely interested in anti-SJ content? So I blocked a whole bunch of channels, and now they don't show up in recommended or related. Unless I get linked or seek them out, I don't see the channels anymore.

I did this one night, blocked like 50 users, within a week they were popping back up in related videos and she would click them. Especially that annoying Ryan kid, I think they can pay to pop up in related videos. It's like once you click on one bad video the whole selection is infected. So much easier to just forget the whole thing.

Can confim my two nephews will always be watching that and some Kinder surpirse eggs unboxings. Sometimes they are smart enough to skip the ads but most of the time they just wait. One day I took a peek just to see what they were doing. Holy shit, those videos have over 1 million views.
"Pregnant Elsa and Spider-Man" was a suggested video months ago for me. I realized it was a channel from people I had watched on another channel. These people have like 7 channels...

Believe me, though, they rake in the cash. One channel, Family Fun pack (Think a slightly less crazy version of Jon & Kate + Eight where every second of their kid's lives are broadcasted), rakes in I think an estimated 2 million a year in ad revenue and sponsorships. And that's just videos of kids playing with each other and doing family things. Don't even get me started on Elsa and Anna.
Mate you sparked a deep deep dark tunnel of webs and tiaras do a little personal research on these fucking good for nothing shit bag youtube channels and come back when you go holy shit youtube's getting its ass scammed over backwards but ignores it because they don't care, because the people who pay for ads think this is getting views and so they will pay to put there ads up regardless. I have brought this up many times before and it is a dark hole of thousands literally thousands of these shit bag kids channels with millions of views with bullshit comments and even more bullshit names.
Yeah, holy shit. My 4 year old thinks spider man is a bad guy now. Also, one time I kept hearing all these fart noises, and Spider Man was going around farting on everyone including elsa. WTF.
Im convinced the makers of this channel have figured out a hack to get views. There is no way anyone, including kids, would ever watch that garbage.

I also hate adults opening kids toys and making up weird story lines for them. It's different if it's another kid. It's just weird when it's that one lady with the slightly Japanese sounding voice doing it.
I baby sit a kid who is allowed (some) ipad time to just chill out. The amount of ridiculous kids channels is insane. Grown adults putting on stupid voices and acting out little scenes with plush dolls or unboxing shopkins or other sealed toys. They are all super infuriating too. Stupid childish voices and just go on and on. Nothing even remotely educational (unlike young kids cartoons). It drives me crazy

In my area calling 911 and the police local non-emergency phone number goes to the same place, however only calling 911 transmits the caller info to the police. I'm guessing calling the local number transmits the caller ID information at best, and caller ID can be easily spoofed.

When I was a kid, someone burnt down my grandma's home. Which sucks.
What was worse? They took the box of matches and lighter fluid they used to start the fire.
And left it in a field next to the house.
They were fingerprinted and caught within 24 hours. House was still smoldering when they first went to jail.
If you're going to attack someone's family, at least be good enough at it that they get the satisfaction of watching the police hunt you down.
Our ordeal felt like, "Someone burnt down grandma's house last night."

"They're already in jail."
" !!! "
"Everything is gone, except the box of matches and lighter fluid they left in a field."
" ... WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!"
It was the strangest, most intense anger at incompetence I've ever felt. It made it feel more callous somehow that they would be such shit criminals.

Is the video that this person is putting on youtube not enough to catch someone doing this? Or are they not allowed to use that as evidence for some reason
Twitch automatically saves VODs for ages. Any streamer and their mother could get a hold of that footage in minutes.
To answer /u/cookacola yes, the video can be used as evidence. Which is why nobody has ever been arrested for this. They explain the issue to the SWAT team, who usually didn't even know this was a possibility, and then they leave to look for the little shit who made the call.
However, there isn't a lot you can do about the terrifying experience of having an officer put a live gun in your face and tell you to get on the ground. The team can't afford to take chances so you'll rarely resolve the situation before they detain you with extreme prejudice.

Or get over a lost pet, as in many places shooting the dog is first step when breaking in on someone.
And, if I recall correctly, someone who was swatted got in legal trouble because the police found marijuana (oh the humanity!).
Even if no one is arrested, it's still so stunningly stupid and dangerous. Any situation where you encourage scared/adrenalized people with guns is so freaking scary.
I mean no streamer has been arrested for the crimes they were accused of by the swatter. Even if there were a matter that justified investigation, the streamer could simply pull up their footage and dismiss all of them.
you have A and B. A, anonymously calls swat on B. B is streaming and swat shows up. Now there is a video of it. How does that video tell us who, or where A is?
Oh I see, I was under the impression the pranksters were making a video of themselves swating someone and was very confused on how they would get away with that haha

I totally agree with you, but there will always be an odd few people out there that'll either forget to do that or don't realise to do that. And you only need to catch a few people to set an example of the consequenses to the larger group.
It's easy enough to spoof or use a number not tied to anything. The phone system wasn't designed with security and authentication in mind. Just get a burner phone with cash or setup a Gmail account and then get a Google voice number tied to it. Caller ID won't link you back and tracking the person down is too expensive and too much trouble for most local PDs.

They caught many people doing it. It just takes time and resources. Over the course of a year feds caught half a dozen teenagers swatting in the USA. They tried each of them as adults with harsh convictions. From what I could tell, they were responsible for most of the swatting going down on Twitch. Either that or the feds succeeded in making an example of them and it stopped. Very little swatting happens now a days. You can do a quick google about swatting convictions and it'll come up with a lot of different stories all taking place around 2015.

Plenty to go around. Usually no more than a year if you're under 19 but any real adult gets many years of hard jail time. LEOs do not like being jerked around that way. Some cases they try to push for attempted murder charges.
My area's police departments will ask for your phone number for things like that. I learned that when my mom accidentally help catch some bank rovers once. Of course, there's nothing stopping the caller from giving fake info.
wouldn't it be easy in this case as there's literal video evidence of them doing it?

It's not the youtubers/streamers that are doing it, it's people who watch their streams/hate their streams that do it. Their streams help prove that they didn't, like, hide 7 bodies or something while SWAT was en route though
Seriously. Uninvolved people who were just hanging out get hurt and killed in real raids with depressing frequency. I can't imagine thinking that's an acceptable prank.
In reality, i think Pewdiepie does have 6 hostages. I think in some of his videos if you listen closly, you can hear muffling sounds like the victims are trying to be heard.
"Oh Pewdiepie has 6 hostages and he's threatening to murder all of them you need to hurREEEEEEEEE"
considering some of the other shit hes done, that might actually happen
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:50:54 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It can be as simple as saying that someone is threatening to kill themselves. I don't remember her name, but a transgender youtuber was swatted that way, she was put in handcuffs for something like an hour.
It's also worth mentioning that the perpetrators do some legwork to make it happen. They don't just call the cops and report the YouTuber. They trace IP addresses or do some online digging to find out the streamer's address. Then they call and say, "active shooter/hostages at [twitch streamers address]."
IMO, going through all that extra work just to be a dick makes the felony even more despicable.

only in America, in every other country in the world maybe a cop will come and ring your doorbell, or give you a call.
Why would a SWAT team just break down a door without any information about what is behind? I mean, if Pewdiepie really had 6 hostages should you not get information on where they are located in the room, where the hostage-taker is, if he is armed...? Wouldn't someone at lease try to look in the window or peek trough the keyhole?
I think that's the thing where you call the SWAT team and tell them you know a person at X address has someone hostage, or is doing something dangerous and the SWAT team roll up in full gear. Amazing no one has been killed the SWAT team are on high alert one wrong move and they'll shoot and the victim often has no idea what's happening when they're confronted by scary yelling people with guns

I used to like markiplier, started being really annoyed by his content recently. Realized that I changed, not him. He's always been like this. I'm 26. Why did I find him amusing a year ago...
Same thing happened to me with Toby. I used to watch all his videos, but then I realized how stupid he was (i.e., not my humor/style anymore). That's about the same time I found Mark. However, I found Jacksfilms through Toby, so I'm happy about that.

Ah... Christ man, it's been ages since I've last seen Toby. I used to watch him and The Annoying Orange back in 2011-2013 all the time.
Times have changed and so have I, but every now and then I watch one of Toby or TAO's video and go back to simpler times. Much of my personality when I'm out with friends comes from Toby actually, I looked up to him a lot.
There have been times when I went back to look at whats he's doing now, what he was doing, and how it changed. I realized his content changed right before I stopped watching. I also realized that the Literal Trailers weren't as good as I remembered. I actually found Mark from one of Toby's videos. I can't remember what the game was called, but it was a first person game that was EXTREMELY pixelated, and you were a murderer who invited a bunch of people to your mansion to kill them. I remember wanting to see what actually happened when you finish the game, so I looked to see if someone else had done it. Lo and behold, Markiplier. I think the first series I watched was Unfair Mario, or some other rage game from back in the day. Good times.
No, it's not Party Hard. The one I'm talking about is some sort of horror game but not horror? I guess it's just supposed to make you feel uncomfortable while playing it. I just can't remember the name of it for the life of me.

Toby isn't doing too well which his pretty sad. Keemstars defamation campaign really fucked him over, I went back and looked at his vlogging channel and his vids barely hit 10k views down from like 150k
Never was Toby fan, and then the whole situation with April / drug abuse / possible sexual assault came out and I was like "Welp, never have to check him out then"
Ah... I remember that... I never did find out what happened after all that, but it sort of crushed me, to see someone I looked up to accused of doing something unthinkable.
Nothing came out of it though... drama died down and Toby's still doing his thing... I'm not sure what exactly happened.
Assuming we're talking about Tobuscus. Stupid and manipulative, constantly lies about the reasons for miniscule video lengths (more videos = mo money with less effort) by claiming his 'laptop is overheating'. Sick of your bullshit.
Man I loved Tobuscus back in the day when he actually did playthroughs of games, and make funny clips and cartoons. Literally all he does is vlog now and talk about some project he's working on. Guy builds his career off of one thing and drops it for something completely different aka for more money.
His screechy humor probably got old. I used to like Pewdiepie a lot when I was 16, now I'm 19 and don't dislike him but the most I can stomach is 1-2 videos when I'm super bored and need some mindless distraction.
Markiplier has an absolutely fantastic playthrough of Undertale. I decided to check out his other content aaaand it's all screamy Happy Wheels videos :I

Somewhat in Markiplier's defence though, at least he's not a gigantic douche. I find him annoying as well, and I cringe every time he makes a heartfelt speech because the man cannot edit his thoughts at all and ends up rambling and repeating the same stuff, but at least he's not going around being an asshole or scamming people or whathaveyou.
Ive started branching out feelibg the same. I like bullet barry, he tells stories of his life and plays games as well as talks about tech and games he plays. Its more of good story telling and less clickbate and repetitive jokes.
I also like rags overviews of games. He does a good job of pointing out both the good and bad of games and he is very up front about what are facts and what is his opinion and does alot of research on subjects he talks about.

Mad respect for people who can keep it real, even when dealing with legitimate human filth.
I thought it was interesting. They never start arguing and they stay civil the whole time. Plus apparently Keem earned a shitload of money investing in Minecraft back in the day so that's why he has so much money now.
I think it was actually some shitty Minecraft knockoff that they slipped onto the Xbox store just ahead of Minecraft being released on consoles. Classic slimy keemstar action
Is he still a douche? I ask because I saw him on that H3H3 podcast and reading the comments, I wasn't sure if people started forgetting some of the things he did and made me wonder if he turned over a new leaf.
I watched Idubbz video the day it came out and I'm a fan of both of them. This whole Keemstar swatted someone thing just isn't true in any way and this is only the 2nd time I've ever heard it brought up both on Reddit. I honestly wonder if it's just a Reddit rumor.
ChewyNeko ยท 10 points ยท Posted at 00:40:11 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
if you truly cared for an answer, then rather than wait for someone else to post a source for you, you could've easily just googled it yourself..
But just in case there are others also too lazy to search, who might also think Keemstar is a good guy surrounded by "rumors", I'll simply show you one link I found literally just by searching "keemstar" (no "is bad" or "is evil" or anything, just his name) and clicking the very first link besides his YT. It's a sourced article detailing many (but not even all) of the reasons people think Keemstar is a sociopath (you can search a bit deeper if you want to find all the reasons for hate elsewhere but I don't have time for all that).
But one of the biggest (and more recent) reasons he's considered a sociopath is for his incident with witch-hunting an innocent 62 year old man to make a quick buck: for pretty much no reason other than to cash in on views, Keemstar decided to try to uncover the identity of a pedophile on Runescape, and ended up encouraging thousands of Keem's teenage internet army to harass this 62 year old man who he thought was the pedophile (he wasn't, it was a rushed accusation and Keem didn't care about getting to the truth; he did get a ton of viewers though for stirring up criminal drama around this poor old man).
The old guy ended up crying on stream because thousands of people were messaging, calling, and harassing him in any way they could, tarnishing his reputation when the guy just wanted to play Runescape. Keem also appeared to have no remorse over it until he began losing thousands of subscribers because of it (which led to his apology video). And unfortunately it wasn't an isolated incident, even besides the swatting which others have mentioned Keem has a history of getting his fans to wreak havoc by harassing others for him (some of it is detailed in the above article). Keemstar overall is like the poster child for horrible youtubers--those who whore-out clickbait for views, rarely post any original content, and rather stir up unnecessary drama while laughing all the way to the bank (he also of course has a history of revealing how little he cares about fans and how he does it all just for the money); as opposed to YouTubers who strive to please with original content, without needing clickbait or any childish drama/antics to get views and make a living.
I knew all of this I was looking for a source on the "fact" that he swatted someone.

I've spoken with him, as I used to be a friend of his friend "2bucks", his on-camera presence isn't a character, he is a horrible cunt 24/7 and I hate him
I don't deny he's egotistical but that dosent make him a bad person. From what I've heard of him from other people/youtubers who know/knew him personally I never thought he was putting on a facade for YouTube.

He accused another guy of being a pedophile and tried to destroy his life.
I can't speak for Yamimash/obey alliance because I know nothing about those cases. RsGoldandGlory was bad definitely but he immidiately took the video down put out a correction and apologized. With Pyro he was somewhat half wrong. He never actually said "Pyro is a pedo" he was just saying what Pyros old friends told him but I can still see why that would be bad. Lionmaker however is verifiably a pedo. And JoshAs Skype was accidentally leaked but his YouTube URL had his real name in it already.
His success rate is more than indicative of his nature. Two out of however many does not justify his actions. He is a former lawyer and should understand moral and ethical duties and responsibilities. His blatant use of misinformation falls short of that with the things he disseminates to his followers. If he has proof of crimes like this, his responsibility is to report it to the authorities. Smearing people ad hoc is at best negligently careless. At its worst it's actionable defamation and morally bankrupt.

I'm aware. Someone on his news team told him about the "story" and he ran it. The moment he realized what he said wasn't true he apologized put out a correction and took down the video. That's a mistake but that dosent make him a bad person. Also he dosent have anything against Keem as he's apparently more reasonable then most of Reddit in relation to Keemstar.
I've watched just about every "Keemstar exposed" video known to man. I know all of the things people don't like him for. The problem is most of the things people hate him for he dosent deserve hate or they just aren't even true accusations.

Name these people. I can think of two people he's doxxed and didn't intentionally leak info on either of them. And the one he did accidentally his full name was already in his YouTube URL. If by douchebag you mean you don't like his personality that's fine but being egotistical dosent make him a bad person.
Edit: downvote instead of rebutting my point. Good shit โ๐ป

Maybe you should have responded nicely in the first place? What was it? Ah, yes, "lol you cried your a fucking retarard". Perhaps you should take a minute to think about what you say first before I report you for harassment.

That poor runescape streamer he completely slandered as a pedophile.. all the dude wanted to do was play his game. Keemstar is a complete piece of trash with zero journalistic integrity. Hell, I wouldn't even call him anywhere close to a journalist.
This is so terrible. I could only imagine my granddad or grandma casually playing an mmorpg very lightly as a way to be close to the grand/great grandkids and then being bombarded for no reason.
With that being said, if what they said in the video is true and that an equal amount of ppl came to support this guy is heartwarming. Does anyone know how long ago this was and how the old guy is doing now?
I still follow his stream. There are still a lot of us out there that support him. He's actually (at least from what I can tell), just a nice older guy who likes Runescape. I haven't checked in on him recently (my job has become more time-draining than normal), but last I heard he was doing well.
I think it helped him feel better that so many other human beings were honestly concerned about him, and wanted him to continue. Watching a grown man seriously cry the way he cried will never cease to make me feel like crap, it legit hurt him and Keem basically apologized but didn't (if that makes sense). I have never met Keem, but I have a very intense hatred for what he did to this man and how he swatted other people whose channels I watched. I also dislike how he was flat-out banned from youtube and violated their policy with a loophole to get back on air. People could've died due to his actions. It's no joke and he needs to grow up and focus on becoming an adult.

A lawyer for a project I'm on at work has been payed into the millions in the last year. Doesnt mean he's an average lawyer, though. PewDiePie isn't exactly an average YouTuber.
I will give him credit in that it was his "team's" fault. Meaning that he claims to have fired the two responsible, but that doesn't seem to have changed his style of reporting (i use that term extremely loosely and only because I lack a better word other than shitposting). He is ultimately responsible for the content he puts out as he owns the channel, so yeah. The fact he didn't put any effort into checking the content before blasting this guy and starting a witch hunt makes it his fault as well.
Here's a happy video of his response to the incident after people told him how much they cared, he honestly reminds me of anyone's grandpa :). How could you hurt a dude like that? After viewing this, who would support Keem?
I didn't know who that asswipe was before he did that to gloryngold, and i've never seen so many death threats on the internet aimed at the same person.

But he is all but encouraging someone to swat them. Not a good thing at all, and that could cause someone to get shot, killed, pets killed like dogs, or land the SWAT team in trouble for reacting to what they were told was a legitimate threat.
He was well aware of what would happen by giving his rabid, foaming fanbase the personal details of people he and his fanbase hates. He's just a massive pussy that wants to absolve himself of responsibility.
gamergaters used to doxx people all the time back when people paid attention to them. dunno if any youtubers got involved in swatting, but i know their cretinous fans did that shit as well
Swatting and doxxing are quite different. Swatting someone involves getting a SWAT team sent to their location. It's most well known regarding streamers, where the victim is usually targeted while streaming.

Not only was he trying to get views, he was trying to act like he's not a little bitch and in a way saying "Fuck the Police" when in reality if he really got swatted he'd be on the floor crying. And if he swung he'd be shot. Lol

I don't know about a specific people but at some point it was popular to film you or your friends hitting/swatting unknown people and then running away laughing.
How do they get away with it? If they record it and put it on the internet, that's super illegal, right?

AFAIK streamers themselves have never done it live, but some have posted personal details of other streamers to all their viewers and/or "joking" that it'd be funny if so and so got SWAT'd.

Many social media people that want to initiate attacks will paint a target on thier victim, then wait around and hope thier fans will do it.
That's still a thing, I though that was made a national federal ban, like you can do some hard time for pull stunts like that. Someone was even hit with murder charge.
yeah dude. heres a video of kootra from the creatures getting swatted while he was live streaming https://youtu.be/uH-uRFIr3mA?t=388. it starts at 6:30

Telling police that you have hostages/a bomb or something that requires immediate attention so the SWAT forces are sent to the target's home and break in.
Plus, if the person who's swatted happens to own a dog, consider it dead. They have to consider them dangerous if/when they approach, and what dog WOULDN'T come barking to see wtf is going on if the door is suddenly smashed down? Or hell let's go further, if the person who's swatted thinks that there's a burglar, owns some sort of weapon, and goes to confront their invaders? Yeah they're getting lit up.
I'm legit enraged just thinking about all this.

Being swatted means someone called the police and reported a situation at your house like you have hostages at gunpoint or something. A SWAT team then arrives at the house
Okay, but do they break and enter/arrest whoever it is? And if so, isn't that illegal? If you accuse someone you need actual evidence before anything happens to them.

If the police think you're holding hostages or are about to kill someone, they don't have time to gather evidence and whatnot. They are gonna kick your door in, and they're gonna be rolling deep. Best case scenario is your door is destroyed, your house will be completely trashed from them turning it inside out looking for anything illegal, and there will be a nice new rumor in your neighborhood that your house was raided. People won't remember that you were cleared of any wrong doing, only that police were at your house with guns, so you must have done something bad. Oh and hopefully you don't have a dog, well it doesn't matter anyway, because you won't anymore after the police have shot him.
There's an old saying popular with both criminals and the police alike: You might beat the rap, but you're not beating the ride.

I've never watched one but I would imagine they would subdue the victim, search the house, and then once they realise it was a fake call they would fill out some paperwork and then leave.
It's very illegal for the person who called and gave the fake tip off
Yeah this is pretty much how it goes down. However, if said SWAT team happens to find something illegal like drugs just chilling out when they come through then you can be arrested for that. Whether or not the charges stick depends on the quality of your lawyer.
Things work differently when you call in a bomb or hostage or meth lab or other thing that requires an urgent and decidive response. It's also illegal as shit to call it in falsely and you can do hard time and/or be sued if you aren't well-lawyered.
also known in US Tort law as malicious prosecution/abuse of process. There are subtle differences between the two, but if you go and learn about ONE law to help your ass, this is the one I recommend to everybody.

One reason I stopped streaming on twitch and have debated returning at all. Scary to think. My content was nothing incredible anyways, but I made some friends who were fun to play with online. I feel like I wasted a sub button someone else could have used though. I also work as a correctional officer, so I deal with potentially dangerous people a lot already.
Someone told me my priorities would change after I had a kid, they were very right.
It wasn't even a good apology, it was basically, "I'm sorry that you misunderstood the situation," when he was clearly using his youtube videos to con viewers into using his site.
EDIT: For those wondering, Philip DeFranco made a video not too long ago (mid-late January and he touched on it at one point) mentioning it. I think only Tmartn is still being investigated because he was listed as the owner of the business. He's also been backtracking a lot. Made an apology video then deleted it. Gone back to all his videos and edited descriptions to make it look like he owned the site even though the video content says otherwise. He's digging a huge hole. Syndicate on the other hand handled it properly. He admitted his mistakes, he was honest about lying to his viewers, he apologised to them etc. Never heard if he had a punishment or not, probably got fined

I believe he Syndicate shut up and lawyered up after the apology.
edit: specifically Syndicate. Fuck Tmartn. Hope the law beats his ass in court.
Syndicate? Possibly. Tmartn? Definitely. Damage is done though and you can see archived versions of his videos before the description was altered. He's fucked
Advertised/made content for a cs go skin gambling website. It was later discovered that they owned the site and was believed by a large part of the community that they were rigging large bets. It is a large issue because a large number of the users are kids and because there arent really regulations to control this type of gambling for "virtual prizes" despite the prizes having real world value.

They owned a CS:GO gambling site and promoted the said site via YouTube, pretending they had no affiliations with it. They, basically, allegedly rigged it and scammed heaps of kids and teenagers alike.
Yeah I believe in one of the vlogs Syndicate admitted his wrong doing and said proper legal action was transpiring. It's a shame really, Syndicate doesn't seem like a bad guy but I guess that's the problem, you can't really tell when they are lying over camera.

Syndicate is definitely a grade A dick, he's still refused to pay someone who created content for him years ago (Mianite s2 trailer). He got too popular too fast and now has an ego too big to fit in his multi-million pound house.
Yeah I understand that viewpoint completely, and he's been a dick about a lot of things. I just hope that Syndicate makes mistakes just like the rest of us and maybe he's not such a dick after all.

There's making a mistake and correcting it, and then there's "No I won't pay you for your work that I'm making money from". He did the latter, he's a scumbag POS.
I'm sorry, I do not have the proper information to comment on that one particular instance.

That's always a fair viewpoint to have. Anytime someone fucks up I'm always willing to assume that they have the potential to change. It doesn't mean I will trust them, but I'm always ready for someone to be different.
Tmartn probably punched Syndicate too or the big piles of money he was making love too? Maybe his dog? (sorry, I love pets) It's so aggravating because I really liked Tmartn's channel back in the MW3 days and he turned out to be a total scamming asshole.
I hope they nail Tmartn with something, especially with the covering up aspect and deleting content. Syndicate at least came out honest and claimed partial responsibility.

andy and trevor again they both bring their own thing to the table which is enjoyable but then you have mica who just screams and is rather stupid (which wouldnt be a problem if that was a niche area and well you know THAT offtopic rant)
with the amount of videos they do you can avoid those you dont like but the amount of videos makes a drop in quality so its lose lose
I was actually very welcoming of Jeremy at first. But man that rimmy schtick has gots to go lol.
I miss ray, to me he had the best comedic timing of the bunch. They need a straight man, the one to keep them grounded. Calling Gavin out on his bs. He wasn't so over the top too
As far as I know, when everything was exposed, Syndicate wound up apologized but Tmartn denied at first, started changing his story and videos on his channel, removed stuff, then started to sort of apologize but continued to bend the story thinking he could get away with it and sweep it under the rug. Then the investigation started. At that point Syndicate had shut up and lawyered up, basically not saying anything incriminating. Tmartn just kept thinking he could get away with it and hope his followers were none the wiser. That's about as much as I know, and loosely for that matter. Disappointed in Syndicate but glad he didn't pull the shit Tmartn did.
I stopped watching Syndicate way before the scandal. Stopped maybe when he was done with his original Minecraft series? God knows when that was but I didn't watch Tmartn. He's another of those annoying fuckers that spends 5 minutes on an intro. Take 10 seconds, introduce yourself, what you're playing and play the fucking game

Honestly stopped watching all minecraft youtubers now. The only person I still religiously watch is Ethoslab. He's always been the best Minecraft streamer there is.
Etho is brilliant. Really chill guy, just does what he feels like and he's always in such a good mood. I swear to god, how he has the patience to do all those massive bloody projects I do not know...
For real. I used to watch GenerikB, Bdoubleo100, Guude, etc (mindcrack mostly.) a ton. But I've drifted away from all of them. Yet, somehow Etho keeps making new, original, quality content. I'm blown away by him. By far the best Minecraft YouTuber out there.

GenerikB doesn't do Minecraft videos anymore just whatever he feels like playing Its pretty alright. Bdubs barely posts game videos anymore. (Mostly live stuff with his family I guess?)
He's started playing games with 'The Crew' now a.k.a folks like KYR Speedy, Jahova, Deluxe20 and Deluxe4 and NobodyEpic. You'll usually see him there (Bdubs that is)

me too mate. I can't finish them. I managed to watch Sky Factory with Pause and Beef but I just can't watch anything else. They're just annoying and it always feels like Etho just carries them.
If you like Redstone, Mumbo Jumbo is a great Minecraft YouTuber to watch. He has great tutorials on a huge amount of redstone that are incredibly helpful.
I'll admit I was always biased against Syndicate because he was a pretty nasty content thief back in the day, (CoD 5 era, didn't really pay attention after that), but to see him burn makes me happy.
Once a piece of shit, always a piece of shit. Whether that piece of shittery is stealing other people's content and claiming it as your own, or setting up a shady as fuck gambling site and scamming those who look up to you.
I did not know he had stole content before... As harsh as it may seem, if I ever get things going again myself, I won't hesitate to deal with content thieves. Like, do the fucking work yourself you lazy bums. They're all hypocrites. They steal it, not a word. Someone steals their content, they throw their toys out the pram
Don't know whether he improved at all, or even owned up to it and apologised, but CoD 5 he was a massive piece of shit about stealing content.
He'd take someone else's findings, pass it off as his own and then that was that. Don't remember if he actually had a channel before 5, but if not then it basically means he built his channel on being a thief and stealing from other people.
Like I said. Happy to watch him burn.
edit: oh and good luck with your content if you do go back to production.
Oh... So like a lot of the scummy Easter Egg hunters for the Zombies modes? So many of them steal shit now. I think the only people I watch for CoD who will name sources where applicable are MrRoflWaffles (fair play to him as well for runnning his channel while still maintaining a place at university) and Drift0r. Pair of them are brilliant and aren't scumbags which ain't easy to find on YouTube when it comes to Call of Duty
Pretty much. Don't know how things are in that sort of community, but back in the day he was pretty much the OG thief.
Looking at his channel he seems to conveniently have deleted all of his CoD 5 vids.
Perhaps he got called out or there was controversy at some point, or maybe he just realised what a piece of shit he'd been, but either way he deleted all of the vids from 5 era.
Don't know how he has been over the years, but once a thief always a thief I guess. Especially given he turned out to be a hardcore scammer it wouldn't surprise me if he continued his thievery throughout the years.
The kid is scum. I tend to be an extremely friendly person and there are very few people who I actually genuinely hate, so that gives some context for how poorly I think of him.
Drift0r was someone I had a lot of respect for due to the quality of his productions, but I just grew tired of CoD so as good as he was I just wasn't interested.
Never really paid attention to MrRW, so idk anything about him.
Yeah, Drift0r himself has actually started to get tired of CoD. He doesn't like Infinite Warfare (don't blame him. It sucks) and now Modern Warfare Remastered got buggered up too apparently. He's slowly transitioning towards Overwatch and I don't blame him
He's been tired of CoD for ages. When I left iirc he was really excited for titanfall because it looked promising and he enjoyed the game, and was hoping to move more toward it.
Guess that didn't go so well. Overwatch is something I could see him finding success with though, so id hope he does well because being forced to make CoD your life must be fucking soul destroying. I remember he wasn't exactly stable either, and CoD would hardly have helped his mental health.
Milo is a god damn legend for balancing imo the most in depth Zombies channel on YT as well as his uni spot. I feel like the dude is a duracell bunny sometimes.
I'll admit I was always biased against Syndicate because he was a pretty nasty content thief back in the day
It's kinda weird to read this about someone who you watched grow up as you grew up. Our life styles were completely different but I still have a soft spot for him...I guess he turned Full Bieber.

AFAIK, the lawsuits are still ongoing. Last news I heard was that they filed under some federal law and it was dismissed, so they've refiled it under state law or something.
I think Syndicate moved back to the UK and will therefore likely avoid being charged with anything as the case is in the US.
Did he move back here? Oh, probably. He had that massive fuck off house built that he insisted on showing off every chance he got. That is when I stopped watching for certain. All he did was brag about the damn thing...
Not sure if the timeline adds up, but a while ago I saw him crying on stream in his new house talking about his grandma while the donations were pouring in.
This is why I can't fuck with all these video game channels now. They use to make videos that were actually about video games. Now they made their money and have moved on to vlogging their entire life and showing off their expensive stuff.

He was at EGX (pretty big european gaming expo) here in London doing meet and greets not long after the whole scandal happened (end of september).
I was so tempted to go up to him and ask him if he could recommend any csgo gambling sites for my little brother to bet on. I decided not to in fear of getting kicked out, but part of me thinks I missed out on a golden opportunity there.
AFAIK he travels from the US to the UK and back constantly.

No the lawsuit is still ongoing.
A Washington federal court ruled it didn't fall under the RICO act so it's moving to state level instead of federal. Washington against valve, and Florida against CSGOLotto.
Syndicate on the other hand handled it properly. He admitted his mistakes, he was honest about lying to his viewers, he apologised to them etc. Never heard if he had a punishment or not, probably got fined
Actually...no.
He didn't handle it properly at all. He fled the country. He is named in the suit and because he resided in the US during the time the suit is being filed for, he would be required to adhere to US law.
Instead of sticking around he left the US back to the UK in the hopes that the lawsuit wouldn't follow him... which could land him in even bigger trouble... like extradition back to the US to face charges, or any and all travel to the US banned.
Out of the 2 of them, tmartn may be the only one to get out of it with a fine.
The part about coming back here, I wasn't aware of because I stopped following the case after it basically went under the radar. Pair of them are scumbags though. So... Why exactly are Valve in court for it? I'm guessing because they allowed it to go on for so long without taking action?
It should be noted that he's definitely still under investigation by the UK's gambling authority. I know the ASA looked into the case but are leaving it to the other department to deal with.
He went back to the UK because of the holidays , he's constantly going back and forth, all his family lives in the UK. he was literally just back in the US for a couple weeks and is going back in another couple weeks... Like he am always have. He also talked publicly about it on the optic podcast, most lawsuits have been dropped due to lack of proof or probable cause.

Long story short, Tmartn and Syndicate created a website where you can gamble for skins for the game Counter Strike Global Offensive. It was open to all ages (already illegal, gambling is 18 or older) and anyone could use it. However, they lied to their viewers. They specifically both claimed to have 'found' the website they owned and misled people into using the site. Not only that, they could apparently rig the gambling from their end to make it more likely for them to win. They endorsed underage gambling, lied about owning the site and tried to hide it until they got caught out. Now they're up shit creek without a paddle. If you Google CSGOLotto, you can probably find plenty of articles and videos on it

And what makes it even worse is that a lot of their gambling was done vs. another unsuspecting player (also probably an underage kid) who of course had no idea he was playing against the owner of the site.
And the site would take a rake (percent of every prize) in the form of around 5-15% of the winnings for each game.
To keep up with the gambling at their own casino analogy, every time the casino owner wins he takes your chips and every time he "loses" you have to give him back chips you just won.
The whole thing was shady as fuck

That's how casinos work. They make money by taking a cut of all winnings or by decreasing the odds for you so they come out ahead.
You're right, but this isn't the problem with what happened with TmarTn and ProSyndicate. They had access to the back end because it's their website. It's possible for them to have manipulated the results of bets to make themselves win. I don't know if they confessed to it or if it's been proven, but it's possible. It's incredibly unethical to play on your own gambling site.
Imagine if a casino had a deck-shuffling machine that wasn't random. This machine would consistently "shuffle" the cards to be in a specific order. Imagine that the owners know exactly what the decks start out as and what the deck will become after it has been shuffled by this machine.
Now imagine that these owners play blackjack with other customers. The owners would come out ahead every time, while the customers think that they're just having an unlucky day.

Oh I agree what they did was bad. I was just saying it's normal for casinos to take a cut of the winnings. Playing in your own casinos against other people is still bad.
TBH they're not even doing something that is wildly unethical. Just somewhat unethical. These gambling sites exist by the hundreds and all use the same tactics.
They made millions by posting videos of themselves "winning" thousands of dollars on a gambling site that they "found" and targeting teenagers or even younger specifically. They got busted for owning the casino the entire time.
That is not only illegal, and they damn well knew it, but also incredibly unethical. They deserve jail time and the grey area created by Valve is all that protected them.

Not disclosing financial ties, for example getting paid to promote a product or, oh I don't know, actually owning a gambling site that you're advertising to minors while acting like you "just found it" is actually wildly unethical and against FTC rules.
The other gambling sites are a problem as well, and possibly illegal, depending on how a judge would view online/ingame currencies. But that's actually a different issue and only still going on because noone has tried to take them to court yet.

They didn't trick anyone into playing on lotto necessarily, they acted like they found "this cool new site". When in reality they owned it, it's against the FTC rules.
Sadly I played in that site and made alot of money with it, but it turns out that they were manipulating the bots that run the site to get skins for free.
it turns out that they were manipulating the bots that run the site to get skins.
Not only that. They would manipulate the bots to pay out to them while they were making videos about it. Which to minors made it seem like they would win all the time. Add in it wasn't regulated to a specific payout limit like slots/regular gambling is. Basically it was also the same sort of stuff that FanDuel and DraftKings were getting charged with but add in the charge of misleading advertising.
"watch me play... I don't know if I am going to win... WAHHHHHHHHH I won 500 dollars worth of skins!!! NOOOO WAYYYY"
They did trick them. They could rig it so they won expensive skins. Making it look like the site was the best one and gave the best skins. So people (kids who were their viewers) who go to that one because not only did they use it but they could rig it so they won.
But you know it is a casino doing it. They were pretending they were just playing for fun. No one knew they had any part of the company. It would be like me saying man I bought these scrath offs and every time i have them I win. Then you find out I made them and rigged me winning so you would buy them. Now if I was upfront about owning it then you could judge my winning as skeptical or at least make a fully informed decision. They didnt do that.
i already said thats wrong, and that i was mad when it happened. I was just saying that they never tricked anyone in to playing they advertised it without disclosing they had stake in the company.
I mean that is tricking people into playing is it not? That is why you are required to disclose you have an interest. If someone thinks your results are genuine or you have no financial ties they (especially kids) are more likely to believe you.
Actually, TMartn had access to the bots and could basically get everything by betting against users.

Encouraging minors to gambling was just all around the issue with CS:GO skins and gambling. The actual bad part was that they just didnt disclose that they were affiliated with the website, AND that the owner is gambling on his own side. Thats a HUGE nono, and while i am not sure if its illegal even in real casinos, i dont know if the law works with on the internet. But in the end its just something that is shameful and frowned upon in itself.

It's also believed that since they owned the site and had access to the backend they could have been manipulating their videos to show more wins then would actually occur
Well, you own a gambling site and want people to use it. What do you do? Id make it seem like its very easy to win, so I program it that I win it every time I gamble and stream it or something. Viewers see it and start using it too, but they get the normal rate of chance.
Not sure if they did this, but I'd do it.

That site was just one of the many that existed at the time. It has become less prevalent since Valve basically said no more gambling sites after the law suit, but there are still some betting sites still up.
Thank you for that! I mean I lost some respect for Valve over the years due to small things but this has really just thrown it all down the drain. Like seriously, WTF... I love how after this all hit Valve came out and said opps my bad we'll close this off now.

Tmartn and Syndicate set up a CSGO gambling website and promoted it on their channels pretending they stumbled across it, bearing in mind their content is aimed at minors. They would then win big on their own website (possibly due to rigging) and encourage these minors to use the website. Not only is this extremely unethical, it is illegal. This is putting a very long story short so I would suggest watching h3h3's video for more detail.
And the entire Faze Clan, I believe they owned CSGOWILD.

Another streamer who was also a founding member of CSGOLotto. You just don't hear about Syndicate because he didn't try to cover his tracks after he was found out and apologized. Because he did that, the controversy died down quickly.
Tmartn however kept trying to cover his tracks and blatantly lie about the whole thing. Then there was that AWFUL apology video. That's why he's more well known for it.
I used to fuck up Syndicate on SantosRP all the time. He tried desperately to get my stream banned, only thing he accomplished was getting me banned from the server.
What did these guys do? I remember watching tmartn's first video on machinima back in the MW2 days and used to watch some of syndicate's minecraft videos but haven't paid attention to them in years. I don't even think they were even associated with each other then

Not relevant to the title. They had large followings which allowed them to profit off that shit.

Because the exploit isn't immediately clear, I think what you're getting at is someone posts click bait title > a bunch of people click it > it gets shown to more people and cycle continues.
The algorithm would be better if it was based on average visitor time on the video or amount of likes
Hot knife video was not flagged with any languagem therefor suggested in every language. Since people everywhere around the world watched it, it got recommended a lot. Why a stupid pseudo scientific shit video over other stuff, I have no idea.
That's how PewDiePie blew up. He moved from Sweden to Italy, while speaking English, having his videos watched in two different countries that have no significant cultural connection meant for the yt algorithm it has international appeal and boom it gets suggested everywhere. (I guess it helped that he's handsome, his topics were video games or popculture related and his humor was... accessible to all ages.)
There was actually a change in the algorithm someone recently and Youtubers complained a lot about it. Instead of suggesting the most recent videos of channels you visited before, it now focuses more on the "top hits" of that channel, promoting sustainability over throw away content and click bait.
[deleted] ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 00:16:09 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Here's a step by step guide:
Create a clickbait video.
Buy views.
Lots of people will watch it, be disappointed and dislike, but that doesn't matter, they already fell for it and watched the video.
Because of the views, more and more people will watch it. The ball is now rolling, the more people watch the video the more people it gets suggested to and the more people watch it, it's a vicious cycle.
Literally profit.

YouTube measures clickthrough rate on videos on the sidebar (how likely people are to click on it when they see it). Then they populate the sidebar with those videos with the highest clickthrough rate (to maximise clicks) - meaning that you end up with only the very most clickbaity stuff in the sidebar. I've ended up blocking the sidebar with my adblocker, for my sanity.

Back about 10 years ago, YouTube was a different beast. It didn't matter what the content of your video was, if it was the most viewed video then it made the front page of YouTube. Nowadays the entire front page is curated for a PG audience, with politically correct videos being pushed to the front even though they lack the views, comments and likes that other videos have. YouTube is owned by Google, and we see how Google curates their algorithm, so it shouldn't be a surprise that YouTube is the same, even if it is disappointing.

If what you say were the case then YouTube's Popular and Spotlight pages wouldn't frequently show videos with <10k views. These videos tend to have nothing noteworthy or deserving of being on the front page except that they often come attracted with a political message or sponsorship.

they have changed as of late. They now place a heavier value on viewer retention and view time.
So a channel with say 1 mill subs uploading a daily video that is 30 min long, that without suggestion is getting 10,000 views a day, and viewers that watch to the end of the video, will be promoted more often than a channel with the same subs and daily viewers putting out 10 3 minute video's a day, or a channel where the viewers regularly stop watching after the first 30 seconds or so.
This is still exploitable, but from an entirely different group. Noticed all the tonight show-esque suggestions you've been seeing lately?...

Back when GTA V was first revealed to be coming a YouTube channel popped up. It's focus was around GTA V and there were a group of friends who ran it.
They posted real information on GTA V. The channel got over a million subscribers by the time the game came out.
Then all the guys that created that channel together started their own. They all used every click-bait tactic in the book appealing to teenage boys and took control over the GTA niche pretty much on YouTube. They had the advantage of having multiple channels bringing new viewers.
So, every other GTA channel saw what they were doing and started doing it as well.
Thus, the GTA V YouTube idiots were born. All the good GTA V channels don't have nearly as many views sadly because they don't show up in YouTube's algorithms because these people have taken over.
Yeah, GTAV channels are pretty awful. The subreddits can be pretty toxic too. I occasionally will try and watch gameplay videos, only because I never get a chance to play anymore, but even then it's real hit or miss. I would never expect to get credible news of a forthcoming game on a YouTube channel.
Ah, I just like watching people play online. Usually XpertThief, but he can be hit or miss. I just miss playing the game so I have to live vicariously through others playing.
So, "fake news" would be a better target for kids. That way they can beg their parents for games that don't even exist yet. Fucking monsters.

The ones that I can't stand, and will stop watching as soon as I see they are doing it is the player who spends the first 5 or more minutes of the video either running around their base (clearly meant to show it off while not actually mentioning it) or who instead spend that time jumping around in one small area while they babble on about something that has nothing to do with the title of the video.

While it sort of is, it could potentially make their video or whatever more likely for actual people to click.. You'd be more likely to click fake GTA6 video with 250k views than one with 25 views.
Get the initial bulk of views to pseudo-validate the video and it becomes more appealing to the common clicker.
It could potentially help kick off your youtube channel (definitely helps if your content is actually something the viewer would want to come back to) and eventually you don't need to buy views and now you're banking real. cash off selling ads.
Sounds to me that it could be a good return on investment if the price for fake views was fair and you had content that people would come back to..

I made a video of some local flooding several years back. It was really just to show some friends of mine, and myself. It got a few hundred hits. Then someone I've never heard of copied it, put a bunch of hyperbolic capital letters in the title, and got several million hits out of it in days. Nothing else changed about the video itself, other than they limited it to 480 when I had recorded at 1080. It's all about marketing and appealing to the casual YouTube browser or bored kid.
Yeah, American sports are always in the extreme. NFL is 16 game seasons, with like 16 minutes of play per 4 hour game. MLB is 162 games a season, 3 minutes of play per 18 hour game.
It's not as bad, there's a lot of hockey played in a hockey game which is good, but there's still 82 games a season. That's madness.

I've heard it said that the NFL/NCAA football has a low number of games to reduce wear on the athletes, and prevent injuries.

Don't get me wrong, I watch football and enjoy it, the situation and contrast is just funny to me.

Every half an hour they repeat the same topics. I use to work with a guy who loved listening to sports radio at work. After a few days I realized that they talk about the same 5 topics all day. They start with point A, then point B 20 minutes later. Then point C 20 minutes after that. So on until point E. Then they cycle back to point A. It's maddening.
That is completely irrelevant. I am a sports fan and love to talk about sports when there is something going on as in a recent game or a pending trade. That sub trashes people who act like any sports discussion at even those times is irrelevant. A sport two months into the off season is worth an update article on what is going on, not 7 days of talk on speculation of things that for the most part don't matter.
Haven't been into Overwatch since a month or so after release; Whats wrong with Unitlost?

I also like mindfuzz, he makes detailed videos about each rank as he is in them himself, admits where you just have to "git gud better" and gives out hero recommendations to solo the easiest based on your skill level. He also reviews gameplay submissions people send, I haven't watched too many but they seem useful.

He doesn't even write scripts just blabbers on for roughly 10 minutes and farts out a "ladies and gentlemen" whenever he is such at a loss for words due to no script that he doesn't know what to say next.
Watching him slowy gives me brain cancer I installed a youtube channel blocker just for this guy, that's how bad he is in my opinion.

Yeah I unsubbed from Unitlost when he started doing that because he was enjoyable to watch but now he's just a youtube cashwhore with little regards to quality and lots of regards for clickbait and 10 min vids.
I was subscribed to him before the release of Overwatch due to news and stuff, but after release his videos became very clickbaity. I finally unsubscribed when after constantly complaining about people complaining about competitive, and saying that it's not bad and that you just have to play together, he uploaded a video saying that he never actually played solo queue before and was just assuming that barely anybody does, that everybody has a bunch of friends to play with like he does, and now that he tried out solo queue he finally understands what people were complaining about.

Kirioth is the best guy. I'm still really disappointed they parted ways and now it's just Sty running UnitLost. Both of them together were some right good laughs, especially their Dark Souls playthrough they streamed with Rurikhan.
I mean i dont blame sty, he saw an opportunity to make it big and took it and overwatch took unitlost from a barely scraping by 60k sub channel that needed patreon to survive to like what is it now 300-400k? And getting featured on the blizzard battlenet client and invites to events for first hands on looks etc id do the same if i was him but i do miss the old sty and kiri podcasts and banter because now unless ur invested in overwatch its not worth watching
He's also extremely arrogant, he constantly talks about how great he is at the game. I mean yeah he's pretty good but he plays it all day so anyone's going to get good with that much time put into it.
The real question is why so many Youtube "personalities" are British. Why do people like listening to British people bullshit? My little cousin watches a ton of Minecraft videos and they're all just British guy+girl yelling and screaming at each other.
British person here - the vast majority of YouTubers seem to be American to me, but British youtubers are allowed to exist too - America isn't the only country in the world. I know what you mean about "personalities" though, eg Dan and Phil, I think it's mostly because teenage girls like their accents - but I see way more American YouTubers, personally.
Unit Lost (Stylosa) is the worst Overwatch YouTube "celebrity". He has no idea what's going on, gives purposefully bad advice, and relies exclusively on clickbait.
Despite disliking almost every video of his that manages to autoplay, they still feed me this crap.
I get a very different impression of him. He usually says in the title if something is speculation vs fact, is a grandmaster so at least has a mild idea of what's going on and I haven't really come across any instances of him giving intentionally bad advice.
IDK, I feel like Stylosa is in a position where he benefits from spreading conflicting information.
This all originated with the "rank doesn't matter" scheme. This creates a situation where Stylosa can encourage people to play games without worrying about rank (which they should, to some extent). Then, when players fall down, he can post "motivational videos" with clickbait titles that the same people who fell down are likely to watch. Stylosa ends up creating an ecosystem where he can circle through bad play he may or may not have encouraged and rake in ad revenue.
I'm not saying that all of his advice is bad, but the way he heavily pushes these ideas makes me question the accuracy and reliability of his content, to say the least.

I used to watch Stylosa when he was on Twitch doing mini painting. I miss those. I unfollowed him after he switch to exclusively Overwatch. I realize it's popular and it gets views, but it's so ... generic. Like "everyone is playing it and people are watching it, so I'll do it too," sort of thing.
But I find FPS streamers incredibly boring to watch and YouTuber's aren't much better.
Maybe he'll go back to his roots one day and I might watch him again.

Also onenickle or whatever his name is. He is always in my suggested because his titles are relevant OW information but his videos are 33% OW and 66% bullshit about literally anything he finds interesting. Like it legit wouldn't be too shitty if he didn't artificially increase video length or actually mentioned all the videos topics in the title. I can't even escape it because I watch so many other Overwatch videos.
That said i heavily suggest youroverwatch as a top tier alternative overwatch channel. Those guys are great content. Daily but three of them trade off the videos so its still quality.

Unitlost was actually pretty good for the first 2-3 months of Overwatch, but now his stuff is "state topic material in first 30 seconds, rant for 20 minutes, 90% repetition".
Man, Unit Lost was the best when Overwatch first came out. In-depth tutorials from someone who genuinely cared about the game, complete with "here's a common mistake I was making and how to avoid it?" Fantastic.
Then the videos got longer and longer and about nothing. Unpacking 100 loot boxes and overacting about cosmetics. Stupid speculation videos every single day. "Explanations" that would ramble on and on, going in circles. I finally unsubscribed when I realized I was disliking almost everything he put up. I can't remember exactly what video it was but I think it was about some nerfs he suggested for a character. He repeated "but is that enough? I don't know" like fifteen fucking times.
I like Unit Lost/Stylosa for actual news and gameplay tips, but man his speculations get really long-winded and reach way too far. I usually stay long enough to get the evidence he uses and a bit of context then peace out because man, you just talked for 10 minutes about a payload model. Chill.
These people make me ashamed to be British on YouTube. Just cancer.
I had a mate ask me if I saw that doomfist was confirmed and he mentioned that unitlost video that's been circulating. I thought he was cleverer than that. Luckily for him he's in Egypt and I can't backhand him irl.... yet
Same with reaction videos which they conveniently forget to mention in the title, so you'll see something like 'PSG vs Barcelona 4-0 Highlights' and it'll just have their ugly mugs on cam

Working at store that sells mostly games and consoles, we feel the brunt of these people misleading the viewers.
You don't understand how many people ask us about GTA6 on a daily basis. Unfortunately most of our customers only have access to mobile data. So they rarely do research on a regular basis and fall for these click-bait videos/news.
We all know Rockstars is working on Red Dead 2. They rarely ever work on more than one project at a time. So GT6 is still years away. PS: Please let GTA6 be Vice City. I want to die a happy man....

Man, that reminds me of two months ago when people made videos saying they had official gameplay footage of TLOU pt.2 when all they really had was the concept art from the panel at PSX.
I've been watching a lot of Breath of the Wild stuff lately, and I have come to the conclusion that the word "walkthrough" simply has no meaning anymore. An hour of developer gameplay with them explaining cool mechanics? Apparently that's a walkthrough. Twenty minutes of the public demo with a fanboy gushing about random stuff? That's a walkthrough now. Ten minutes of promo footage with no commentary at all? Yup, walkthrough. It was bad enough when people were calling (obviously blind) Let's Plays "walkthroughs", but the game isn't even fucking out yet.
It's just ridiculous at this point. They just put whatever words they think people will be searching for in their titles to try to get hits.
There's another guy that does the exact same thing with his GTA 6 videos and it's annoying as hell. I don't know his name, but whenever he does these clickbait videos, people always call him out in the comments.
I just went from having never heard of Lispy Jimmy, to hating his fucking guts in about fifteen seconds. Luckily I'll forget about him completely after today but what a momentary peeve this was.

I find there are actually quite a lot of people doing it. Like New expansion coming out!, Leaked card preview! and First inside look of the sequel!. Every time I see the number of view I just feel a bit sad because it is working to get views...
Or "FALLOUT NEW ORLEANS BY OBSIDIAN OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED"
click
"Hey guys, it's RandomJerkoffAnnoyingVoice here! Before we get going, click subscribe and thumbs up on this video! Now anyway, there's been a lot of talk on forums, and here's my thoughts on that.."
I'm not sure what happens after. I never make it past that point.
CONTEXT: There was that guy named "Logan" who made a video about his color blindness and that he just got glasses that "fixed" his color blindness. Well, he got exposed for it after a week or so but that video went really viral (11.7M views). He even had a few videos that he uploaded like a month before that where he said how beautiful his bird was with all the "colors" so this guy wasn't even colorblind. and ofcourse h3h3 made a video out of it as parody.
EDIT: To clarify, I know that color blind people still see colors but they see it in a different way then non-color blind people. But the point that I wanted to make is that Logan really over reacted and made it way bigger then it actually was. He also recognised the colors on his bird. his freaking bird was green, yellow, red and even blue. THIS IS THE BIRD I'M TALKING ABOUT.

You'd think that if you had a con that big, you'd at least belt yourself into the wheelchair in case you forgot
Would that help? I'm just sayin, wheelchairs aren't that heavy, if you were pulling a long con like that and stood up i imagine it'd be either for a good reason, or you forgot, and you'd probably just take the chair with ya. You'd just look like an asshole with a wheelchair glued to your ass.

Logan Paul. It was really funny/infuriating too, because at the end of the video, he was saying things like "Can we get 100,000 likes guys, cause this...this is just amazing", as he gazed at a rainbow with his colorblind-fixing glasses.
Apparently because he can see colors now, his video should get more likes than usual.
H3H3 and iDubbbz collaborated and made a video showing just how ridiculous and over the top the whole thing was. To the way Logan would gasp in an overt-display of emotion, to how he completely exaggerated his colorblindness (if it even exists) for money.

I got worried for a second, because I saw a video of a colour blind guy getting EnChroma glasses and it was really cool. He was a bit startled by the colour purple, and otherwise just filled with child-like wonder. I'm glad it wasn't him that faked it.

Oh, thank goodness! I was also worried that this was the video people were talking about. I love this video. Him losing it when he sees purple is one of my favorite things ever. Plus the whole thing is just so heartwarming. I'd've been really sad if it had been faked.
I'm colourblind myself and can't see purple. Enchroma was an interesting invention but it's far from the miracle people made it out to be. I'd assumed most of those videos were wildly exaggerated as part of a marketing campaign.

Those glasses are hit or miss. Don't really fix colorblindness, just change what color something is since the lenses are just filters. My parents got me a pair for graduation but they didn't do a whole lot for me. Made driving more dangerous since green and yellow looked exactly the same instead of a difference in intensity. Almost seemed like those images shown in the HDVision or whatever the hell they are infomercials.
The great thing about the company though is the money back guarantee. I think they also included shipping.
No. I am glad he made that video, because of it a lot more people know it exists so now they are tons of videos of people seeing color for the first time and it is amazing. I watch them when I have bad days.

I get that you're trying to look smart by pointing out that red and blue wavelengths are in the opposite ends of the spectrum, but purple is still a real colour.
Your computer screen doesn't have yellow LEDs, but that doesn't mean the yellow colour displayed on a screen doesn't exist.
metaaxis ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 12:39:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Purple doesn't exist as a single wavelength, but it absolutely exists as a synthesis in our perception of the blend of red and blue.
Might as well say that all the colors on a computer or mobile screen don't exist other than red, green, and blue. While everything other than rgb is a blend of more than one of those wavelengths, blends exist in the real world too, and we can't tell the difference between a monochromatic yellow and two wavelengths blended at intensities that cause the same average excitation of our pigments. Things that emit those wavelengths will be described as yellow, even though there may be no yellow wavelength present.
Best to specify if you're referring to the electromagnetic wavelength specifically, at which point, there is no such thing as purple, while there is such a thing as yellow, red, green, etc.
Tl;dr: Perceptual color models are in heavy use (they came first after all), and in those, color names are not reserved for single wavelengths.

That had to be wrong, it has a wavelength, that can be measured, and it's within the range that our eyes can see. It's like saying turquoise doesn't exist because it's between green and blue, it's there, in the spectrum, we just have to define it as being between this and that wavelength.

You should see some other videos of people wearing the glasses. most are pretty overwhelmed with emotion and its cool to watch.
Makes me wonder if I would be blown away or if most reaction videos are just for views and they're acting. Wish I could afford the glasses to find out.
The videos I've seen have been almost painfully obvious advertisements, rather than honest reactions. I considered getting the glasses, but after researching them, I'm less than convinced that anyone has the kind of dramatic changes the videos imply.
I'm partially color blind. (I have Protanomaly, which doesn't effect my life in any way, just bothers me at times. It seriously could be worse) and that just pisses me off. I know, I have no room to complain. But it's just kinda rude to people who are more color blind then me.
Was he trying to say that he had monochromatic vision? Color blindness doesn't mean you can't see any colors at all, just that you have issues telling certain colors apart (which colors you have issues with are dependent on which light cone is deficient).
Ugh I've never really liked Logan Paul. His early Vine days were kind of amusing, and then being a "viral" star kind of went to his head or something and now he just comes off as super fake and obnoxious.

Thank you, everyone just kept saying "he faked that he was colourblind" and never mentioned the glasses. I wasn't sure how just claiming to be colourblind on youtube could get you money.
Out of this whole thread. This is the one that actually made me kinda angry and bothered me. It was totally faked, and the worst is that it wasn't even entertaining fake, I would of been ok if it was at least entertaining.
What makes me angry is that so many people didn't notice how fake it was. His die hard fans seemed to just straight up forget he'd made references to noticing colours in previous videos. There was some part in the video where he pretended he didn't know his pet parrot was colourful, but in his youtube bio he specifically mentions he has a colourful bird. It's like Sean Spicer level lying
Colorblindness isn't just grey tones. I didn't watch the video start to finish so I don't know all he had to say, but it's still possible to know some colors.
That being said, the video was still fake and his reaction was obnoxiously over the top.
This. I'm colorblind. Bad enough the Navy wouldn't let me fly but after 40 years of it I can identify almost any color when asked. I didn't even know I was colorblind until MEPS at 18 years old. I have trouble when colors are by themselves but when put together it's usually not hard. I don't know if I'm just logically figuring out colors or what but nobody would ever know I'm colorblind if I don't tell them.
I loved those birds (A6). Getting to spend so much up close time with them was a blast. I'm not sure if they still use them anymore though. In 97 there was talk of the last flight of the Intruder.

Colorblindness, from what I know and have experienced, is usually seeing a color as a different color.
Example: I saw a stain on my jeans. It was a red stain. I saw it as a green stain.
Now, I'm barely colorblind(very specific shades of red), but I think it's along these lines for most.
Sadly no. What I see is very similar to the light green pencil in the second row of this picture posted by u/slowy.
http://i.imgur.com/BSOVVNT.jpg
It's less saturated than the top, and leaning towards brown, but it could go either way. Obviously though, being colourblind it's hard to know what you see when looking at that picture. I find it pretty hard to differentiate the top and second row green, but if I concentrate I can see that the second is closer to brown.

A bizarre conundrum. I wonder if we can ever truly be positive if we're seeing the average amount of intensity for a color outside of taking hundreds of those color blindness testers with varying levels, some of which are probably difficult even with perfect vision.
More precisely, it's not being able to tell two colors apart. The most common is red-green color blindness, which is caused by the red and green cones both being triggered by both red and green. To such people there's no red and green as separate colors, just a single redgreen.
It sounds like for you the sensitivity bands of red and green cones are far enough apart that only certain shades of red trigger it while others can be distinguished as red.
Yeah, technically, I am Red-Green colorblind because I fail those tests(the dots with the number) but the above example is the only time I've ever noticed. I can tell red and green apart usually. Doesn't stop "What color is this?" though.

I saw this image, or something similar to it, earlier after I got interested in color blindness after messing with colorblind modes in video games (out of curiosity, but I found I actually like the look better in some games).

Not sure who you are talking about but on one of those fake colorblind glasses videos , the dude literally started fucking bawling his eyes out! It was clear he didn't bother to research what color blindness actualy was before he faked having it. I think he later fucking dyed his hair purple and one of the top comments was something like "obviously he has a special connection to the very first color he ever saw!".
When my friends told me that peanut butter isn't normally green is when I found out I was colorblind. Also, when I failed the ishihara test because I legitimately couldn't see the numbers inside the circles
That's not even how colorblindness works. People who are colorblind don't see the world as if it were on a TV from the 40s, they just see colors differently/disproportionately.

Edit: Missed a part while reading your comment, I'm an idiot too
To be fair, you can still understand the concept of colour and being colourful if you're colourblind. But yea this guy's an idiot
Not excusing what he did at all, but TBH, people could have told him he has a colorful bird, and if you searched for his birds species, you would probably find a few descriptions of it saying colorful. If you actually are somewhat colorblind, then the word has less meaning to you, so actually seeing it would be a big deal. There are a surprising amount of ways to work around such things, and even partially color blind people can sometimes somewhat tell the color they are normally blind to in certain situations. I Only ever hear people claim he can actually see color, but almost no one ever explaining how they know that besides his vague references to colors, which does not prove anything.
In the colour blindness video he acts shocked when told his bird is colourful. Yet he already talked about it being colourful previously so he obviously already knew and was just hamming up his 'colour blindness' for the video. It's not about how colour blindness works really, it's just about a dude lying to create a fake narrative for views.
Logan Paul uploaded a video a few months back saying that these glasses had cured his colorblindness. Except it felt really fake, what stood out the most is during it he finds out for the first time his super colorful bird with 4 or 5 colors isn't solid yellow. This pissed me off because I'm pretty sure there isn't a colorblindness that makes you see green, blue and red and I think orange all yellow. and that would mean he would see almost everything as yellow, so he should of known it wasn't just yellow.
Anyways then after the video comes out h3h3 and idubbbz do a video on it and they also point out how fake it is. They even pulled up a video of him identifying different colors from his led lights, proving he knew the difference. All in all it was just a sad attempt for view and subs, although it did work.
tl;dr Logan Paul made a video about how glasses cured his colorblindness, except it was faked and he wasn't colorblind.
Using their model results, Schmeder and McPherson developed a lens that filters out certain slices of the electromagnetic spectrum; regions that correspond with high spectral sensitivity across the eyeโs M, L, and S cones. โEssentially, weโre removing particular wavelengths of light that correspond to the region of most overlap,โ Schmeder said. โBy doing so, weโre effectively creating more separation between those two channels of information.โ

... I like Idubbbz, but did your history teachers really say the N word with a hard R? Mine would have gotten fired faster than you could... say the N word with a hard R.
You think history teachers go up to a group of kids and says say n word? What a fucking stretch. Talk about pathetic. Hmm what's more pathetic, spending money to go to an event that has a largely under 18 demographic just to get a reaction out of another YouTuber by saying a largely offensive word for absolutely no reason in front of kids or being upset that some asshole thought that was appropriate in front of a group of kids. Gee, I wonder. Fuck idubbbz and his little pansy fans. I don't even like tana, but that was so fucking extra and uncalled for on his part. Her reaction just added onto the whole thing.

uhh, the photo area was a completely enclosed separate area from the line. like??? how did you not notice that lol. they were walked like 50 yards from the line, to a completely separate photo area from the general public where it was just him, photographers, and Tana
not to mention the entire point was that she, the person WITH the enormous fanbase of underage people, used the word on her private social media accounts like snapchat, etc. where she didn't think she would be caught
You can try to justify it all you want, I don't care. I watched the videos as well. So fucking inappropriate at a child's event. Talk about doing pathetic shit for views. This one tops the list for me.

for someone playing the whole "think of the children!!" card, you have a pretty distorted and inconsistent view of what is and isn't appropriate for them
For someone who hasn't actually watched tana's videos, you sure have a lot to say about it, she never fucked a toothbrush. It was a rumor spread about her that she talks about. Idubbbz went unprovoked to spew racist words in front of kids. Tanas demographic is not her fault, just like idubbbz demographic isn't his fault, but I'm pretty sure a 25 year old man should have better judgment than a just turned 18 year old.
[deleted] ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 01:48:31 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
so let me get this straight. idubbbz is wrong for doing something inappropriate in front of Tana's audience (which he didn't, btw, the entire point I made originally was that he was never near any of her audience, and was in fact in a private greeting area separate from everyone), but regardless,
so idubbbz = bad for non-child friendly behavior near a child audience, but Tana =/= bad for creating said audience of children with non-child friendly behavior?
so, it's "not her fault" that she makes non-child friendly content and her audience just happens to be children... and she holds no responsibility for the type of content she creates and projects towards this audience she has, knowing full well that they are children (according to you)
but idubbbz is bad because he showed up to a single event and was near 0.000001% of Tana"s audience, and said a bad word. a word that Tana herself says. to her audience. on social media. to tens of thousands of them.
....... am I following your train of logic here correctly so far?
You haven't proven any of what you've said at all. Matter of fact, you didn't even acknowledge that most of her video titles are clickbait and not actually her talking about a time she fucked a toothbrush, for instance. So you say that she makes videos talking about it, but yet she hasn't. Hmm. Something doesn't add up. She doesn't control who watches her videos or who her audience is. I could go make adult content videos right now and put them on YouTube and still kids would watch and would be a large demographic, big surprise kids are curious about sex, but what idubbbz did was 100% unnecessary and pathetic and he did it for views. The same way Tana over exaggerates and uses clickbait titles, and clearly tana's method works if you yourself were stupid enough to fall for it, without any idea that it's clickbait and not sexual content.
Even if Tana would have been saying she fucked a toothbrush, Tana isn't going to other YouTubers events and saying the n word around children. Point blank period. Like grow up. Go ahead and support racism all the fuck you want but Tana, idubbbz, and you, all have one thing in common. You're fucking idiots and you missed the entire point. Congratulations. I will not be reading or responding to anything else you or anyone else says, since none of you actually watch videos to know what you're even talking about.

the fact that you resorted to trying to sell this story of being a man in order to defend your bigoted way of arguing on the Internet (which is apparently to act like there's something wrong with homosexuality and make homosexual advances in the hopes of upsetting them) is actually incredibly sad

Also, where did I say there's anything wrong with being gay? All I asked was if you were gay, and oddly enough, your comments sure slowed down after that. So which one of us is the actual bigot? The publicly openly gay mother or the guy stalking her online who gets offended by being asked if he is gay, typical heterosexual bullshit.

Context matters dude, a word only has power if you give it that power. he wasn't in front of a crowd of people, he did it as a stupid joke and he admitted that it was a stupid joke and all she had to do was be an adult and say that what he's doing is immature of him. he did it to prove a point about tana, that she's immature herself and exaggerates things for views. And also that she's a hypocrite because even though she says context doesn't matter so it should never be said but the problem is even though he never uses the word with intent to harm she in the past has, it's on video. You can't stop a person from saying a word like that (especially when in no intent to offend) because the only people offended by a word are those who allow themselves to be. The best way to fight the power of a word is to never give it power in the first place. People see desensitization as a bad thing but if you are not offended by something it no longer holds power over you when those with intent to hurt use it.

The reason was pretty obvious. He knew she was a crazy exaggerating liar who had recently become very sanctimonious. So he knew if he showed up, pretended to be getting a photo while actually recording, incited her, and waited for her to crank the imagination machine up to 200% that he could expose what a crazy liar she is indisputably.

I don't think he's trash but I don't like him either. I remember when he called Leafy out for bullying people through his videos. He then proceeded to say that bullying is okay. I really don't understand why he needed to call someone out for something he endorses himself. The most fucked up thing is that many of his fans are very young, and he's basically just told them that bullying is fine...
Not trying to be a dick, it's just my pet peeve. The proper grammar would be "would have been okay." I'm just trying to spread the good word, and "would of," "could of," and "should of" drive me insane.
What really bothered me about it is that the product actually exists and there are people who actually have these reactions. He capitalized on something that was just starting to grow, and was actually changing lives, and jumps the bandwagon for views.
Imo he basically just took advantage of something he didn't have. If he was legit colorblind I would have been totally fine with it, but this guy straight up lied to everyone for views and nobody (his fans) judged him for that.
What irked me the most about this is how much money he made off of it and how little his reputation suffered for it

As someone who is colorblind, the video pissed me off a bit, because he was over exaggerating for attention. However, I also want to point out that this comment is misinformed-- Logan has mild red green colorblind, the same as me. I can see plenty of colors, but the issue arises with darker tones, and I couldn't see anything of the tests he couldn't see.
TL;DR: He did not fake being colorblind, but he over exaggerated for attention. Also the glasses don't change all too much

Yeah I was going to say this too, just because he saw a bird with colors doesn't mean anything. That's not how colorblindness works.
But the reaction to the glasses was fake as shit, which was really lame.
He even had a few videos that he uploaded like a month before that where he said how beautiful his bird was with all the "colors" so this guy wasn't even colorblind.
I haven't watched it but being able to see colours doesn't confirm he is not colour blind. Colour blind doesn't mean you see in grey scale.

I think they're referring to when he mentioned in all his video descriptions that his bird was super colourful or something like that, and then in the colourblindness video he makes a huge deal about finding out his bird is not just yellow.

Ehh. I'm red green colourblind. I can see colour fine, and probably would have gotten the glasses if they worked for me. But apparently they only work for specific types of red green colourblindness and all it does is allow you to differentiate colours slightly better.
Well to be fair, color blindness is the inability to distinguish different shades of different colors. So "fixing that" would just be more contrast.
Source: am colorblind. Never thought much of it. Went to the eye doctor for glasses and when I couldn't see some objects on their test, they told me I was color blind. Just thought "huh. That sucks"

How is colorblind even remotely fun?
I have it and the world looks to me like it always has and other people apparently see colors differently. Some I do not see but I wont know unless somebody asks, do you see a difference?
I'm really curious to see how those glasses work. I've been diagnosed with moderate red-green colorblindness (not complete) and I still feel as though I can see all colors on the spectrum perfectly, despite having failed nearly every Ishihara test thrown at me. I can tell between vibrant and dreary paintings like others and it feels like I'm not much different from anyone else other than performing exceptionally poor on color tests
Goheeca ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 00:35:19 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The glasses block a part of the visible spectrum where the perceptions of red and green cones are overlapping. The red-green colorblindness (when you have all of the cones functioning) means there is bigger overlap so the glasses partially solve it by blocking the problematic part. So there should be a significant effect.
EDIT: If you look at an actual rainbow, you'll see less colors, there will be missing stripes between the main colors. Normal objects reflect whole spectra and in this case the effective spectra (spectra of cones including the blockage by glasses) resembles more spectra of normal vision and help you better differentiate colors, i.e. bigger contrast.

How is colorblind even remotely fun?
I think some people see at as a "victimless crime", if that makes any sense.
I am definitely not a die hard fan, but I have watched his videos and I'm just gonna state some facts, correct me if I'm wrong.
He has mild deutan, this means he can't see a certain color range, not that he can see everything b/w(no colorblind person can see just b/w, they are mostly missing certain cones which pick up certain colors)
This guy had mentioned on some interview years before being on YouTube when he was "vinestar"
The colorblind glasses were suggested by his viewers when he had started his channel(daily videos) and in a video probably 2-5 days before the video in which he ordered the glasses he kept mentioning how he couldn't see some frogs and stuff under green lighting in an aquarium(comments on that video were a just people telling about glasses for color blind)
The comment that he saw his bird as one color was obviously a joke, that's how he talks in his videos, as he literally said "my bird is one color"(he has paintings and stuff of his bird all over, he obviously knows his bird has all different colors)
EDIT: yes he overacted in the video, but he is colorblind, let's not just say that he faked his colorblindness, in his later videos too you can see him wear those glasses occasionally
LOOK. NOT EVERY COLORBLIND PERSON IS FULLY COLORBLIND. SO SHUT UP ABOUT HOW HE COULD SEE COLORS BEFORE.

The video was partly fake, he is indeed color blind and in his later videos he explained everything, how he knew the colours of the lights because the names are right below colours in the app he uses for those lights. I mean it is obv fake bit imo he didn't deserve the hate.
It's incredibly stupid how many people leeched off of this scam just so they could cash in. They all act like being color blind is just everyone not being able to see the exact same color as another color blind person. I am color blind (with the more mild version don't know the name of it) and it's just hard to identify colors because you may mix them up

Grow up.
Damn, I didn't know that. I thought it was kind of mean that so many people were making fun of him just because he seemed like kind of a douche, but yeah, if he faked it then that sucks.
For what it's worth, being colour blind doesn't necessarily mean you can not see colours, in fact full greyscale vision or whatever it's called is actually incredibly rare.
The H3H3+Idubbbz parody of that video is simultaneously one of my favourite AND the one I can't watch twice, despite trying to. I have to skip through the Logan bits becuase I'm afraid I might tear a muscle with how much I cringe.
I go to school with Logan's cousin and the cousin is adamant that Logan is legit colorblind. He also had no idea about either Logans corrective glasses video or H3's vid.
I mean nothing on TV is true. All "reality" TV is scripted and acted. Why would we expect YouTube to be any different? If it is good entertainment does it matter if he is blind or not?
The thing that makes this even more of a dick move is this was based of a load of popular reaction vids to these EnChroma glasses which genuinely let colourblind people perceive colours (or so i hear, i'm not colourblind so i've no idea) which if it legitimately works is pretty fucking cool. This very emotional guy flipped out apparently seeing purple for the first time and the video went viral. Then everyone saw there were clicks to be had copied it or did a parody, colourblind or not.
maybe I have to clear this up. I know people who are color blind see colors in a different way. but this guy described all the colors of his bird perfectly in a few videos before that video as I stated. If he was color blind he wouldn't have seen the same colors as people who aren't color blind. so all in all he faked that video and Idubbz made a parody about it with h3h3.
Sorry, but you're still mistaken. Colorblindness can be very subtle. I, for example, didn't find out that I was colorblind until I turned 28 (funny story actually). I can describe 99.9% of all colors accurately. There are a few that I cannot distinguish. I am red/green colorblind.
The glasses don't even fix colorblindness.... the best part in all of this. You can't put on glasses and suddenly your no longer missing some color receptors in your eye....

I don't think he is colorblind, as usually colorblind can actually tell which color is what, but he definitely overplayed it to an obviously bating amount.
In his recent vlog (like in the last two days) he talks about how blue everyones eyes are and starts talking about the different shades. I posted a comment about it but everyone ignored me.

yeah that video was bullshit, most colorblind people can still see color. They just have a difficult time distinguishing certain specific colors (like red and green). I am this color blind with red and green and if i got something to "fix" my "colorblindness" then I would just be underwhelmed. Honestly the most colorblindness has done to me is make me move to the front of the class when a teacher was using red chalk on a green chalkboard.

This video really pissed me off. I'm colorblind to the point that the glasses only give me a 30% to see any correction. For a guy who can already see colors to mock something like this is sad. I mean I get it, I'm fully functional... it's barely a hindrance, aside from matching clothes and everything else that has to do with colors. But it's still a thing that many people have to live with. For the people who the glasses DO help, it's a gradual adjustment over time... like your brain has to process these "new" colors. It's not just an immediate BAM! My grandfather was completely grey scale colorblind. I just hate how people mock this thing and don't even understand how it fucks with us. You ever second guess yourself like all the time on small stupid shit you should've learned in kindergarten, for your whole life? Yea... like I say, it's not like a learning disability or a lost limb but it can really fuck with you and your self esteem. Fuck that guy
He even had a few videos that he uploaded like a month before that where he said how beautiful his bird was with all the "colors" so this guy wasn't even colorblind.
How does this disprove that he's colorblind though? It could still be "beautiful" even if it's the wrong colors.

Does this idiot even know what being colorblind is?
Correct me if im wrong but he could totally tell that bird was more then one color even if he was colorblind. Im slightly colorblind and I could tell. I know there are different types and levels and shit but wtf is he trying to do? I have never tried the glasses but no fucking way the beauty makes you cry

Full disclosure I thought that video was a satire when I saw it originally and it was hilarious.
It's the way he describes and reacts to his "condition" as well . He makes it look and sound like his vision is like looking through a television from the 1950s .
You can be colorblind and still see colors. I have a form of red green color blindness and it just means I can't see as many reds and greens as most people. I don't know if he was pretending to be monochromatic color blind though.

... um, you do know being "colourblind" doesn't mean you can see black and white right? I haven't seen the video, but as a vision impaired person who has friends who are colourblind, they just cannot properly see certain colours such as red, green or blue light.
I'm sorry if you already know this, I just got the impression that some people do not fully understand colourblindness and assume it means you cannot see any colour whatsoever. I Have issues sometimes telling apart red and orange depending what shade the colour is. I'm not colourblind, but for me I have contrast issues due to my eye condition.
In my opinion, faking it doesn't seem to be too hard at all.

You know colorblind people don't see in black and white right? They just have a hard time distinguishing certain colors.

I always found it a bit fishy because Enchroma glasses don't cure colorblindness. They just fix color deficiency. If you can't see red, they won't make you see red. If you are deficient in red, they can help you see it better.

I am colorblind. You do realize colorblind people see colors you moron. What the fuck is with people thinking colorblind people see things in black and white we see in COLOR the name colorblind is misleading. Our eyes see colors differently to normal people but we still see color and it still looks nice and vibrant we just see it different and a lot of colors can blend which is why it's dangerous for us to do certain jobs like be an electrician. I sometimes confuse brown and red depending on the shade of brown or red i can clearly tell that blood is red or poo is brown because it's an obvious brown or red but not all things that are red look the exact same color as blood and not everything brown looks exactly the same brown as poo

I get what you're saying, but to be fair, colorblindness doesn't have to mean that you only see black and white. His colorblindness made him see some specific colors as gray. The colors his bird hava may be some of the colors he can see, or someone simply told him about his bird.
Well. I am colorblind. But I can still differentiate red and yellow and blue. I struggle when the colors start to overlap in the color spectrum like blue to purple, yellow to green.

Fuck, was that a lie? It was one of the last videos I watched of him before unsubscribing. Been a while since I've heard of him. I thought that video was pretty cool too. :/
Android actually has an option to simulate the common color blindness types (Protsomething, Deutsomething) under developer settings. No idea how good it works, for me (Protsomething) there isn't much change. Probably removes a lot of the reds I don't see anyway :0
For the Enchroma effect, there is an option under Accessiblity that will try to help distinguish colours.

Exactly. Chick creates a scene and causes drama and controversy on YouTube and the douchbag and attractive female both laugh while raking in thousands of dollars and scheming on their next prank that will "totally humiliate her."
There is some other prank couple who always pushes the boundaries of pranks on each other and it was funny at first but after a while their schtick gets played out and it's glaringly obvious it's fake.

It's a double negative, which can be hard to understand a lot of the time. I'm not sure, but I think what he's saying is "I think she might be in on it"
If you watch her reactions and body language, there's no way she's not in on it. So many times she's like "omg, what ate you doing" as if it hasn't happened 50x before. I watched a few and realized it was a joint fake that wasn't funny to begin with.

she is and her acting is atrocious. hilarious that the idiots in this comment chain bought it. massive irony.
She has to be in on it. Someone did that to me even once and didn't profusely apologize his ass is getting dumped. Multiple times? She's gotta be in on it
I mean. She's still with him. I know the abused partner can sometimes feel it impossible to leave, but this is already in the public eye and they both make good money from it. She's 100% involved and happy about it. Maybe sometimes she gets pissed off for a while for real, but I would suggest it's mostly acting.
That could genuinely be considered harassment jfc.
If someone did that to me in public, regardless of whether I knew them or not, I'd probs lose my shit. Playfighting is pretty funny in high school, but public humiliation is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

Onision, most likely. Dude is a certified asshole. He has a large following of young teen girls that he is really creepy with. Even dated a few of them even though they were underage, and then brone up with them later, typically around 18-20, and tends to make fun of them on twitter/YouTube and says it's all their fault, etc.
Recently he started a fan site, and on their girls can post pictures of themselves and he will "rate"them on how attractive there are. If that wasn't creepy enough, these girls are below the age of 18, and are posting pics of themselves in their underwear. People have been reporting this to the FBI, but nothing has come back on that. Then again if the FBI is actually doing something about this creep it's not like they would publicly say it either.
Someone mentioned on Reddit how old 4chan was like and I agree...
4chan is a bunch of geniuses acting like idiots, and Reddit is a bunch of idiots acting like geniuses.

Maybe pointing out why will involve typing out a long elaborate paragraph detailing the reasons why he disagrees which will take a lot more effort than typing out one line.
What part, him liking looking at girls sending dirty pictures to him, or the fact that girls like sending dirty pictures to him? Or just the making fun of them part? I agree that's a dick move. EDIT: Yes I get it, I clearly misunderstood the post. What is it with the average Redditor.. If presented with 2 options, either I misunderstood something, or I'm a pedo + satan incarnate, they always assume the worst, even though It's pretty fucking obvious I misunderstood something.

Oh, is it something he is making them do? Or is it just something that happens? Like I can assume the same happens to Justin Bieber, but wouldn't call him disgusting unless he was actually making them do it.
Everyone wants to do dumb things when they are younger, the difference is setting up a website that allows it to happen easily, and doing nothing to prevent or stop it.
To be fair, any forum lets it happen easily, even Reddit. We can't bash on the guy for having a forum, and what that leads, unless he like preys on kids or isn't administering his forum at all or something.
The point is that this forum exists for girls to send him the pictures. This isn't "dude getting stuff he doesn't want and being unable to stop it." It's not even "Dude getting stuff he doesn't want and not trying to stop it." It's "Dude is actively encouraging people to send him CP."
Look it up. There is a ton of shit on it. I hope someone busts his disgusting ass. I get the fact you are being inquisitive, and want to support it. But this is not witch hunt of an a innocent person, this shit is pretty well known for years.
The girls he is flirting with, encouraging to send 'dirty pics', publicly rating the actractivness of, dating (and is it a then stretch to assume having sex with?) are all well bellow that age. If he's "done with" a girl by the time he's 18. Well yeah.
Nah. I realized I misunderstood it quite a while ago, but if Reddit wants to keep piling on the downvotes I don't mind. I got the answer I was looking for and learned what I needed to learn :D
The FBI handles interstate crimes. In the olden days before it, criminals would rob a bank near the border and cruise over to the next state. The first state's cops couldn't arrest them in the second state, and the second state'a cops couldn't arrest them for a crime that happened in another state. Enter the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The government creates them and a list of certain crimes that are "federal crimes," meaning the FBI can get you for them no matter where in the country you are. They can also investigate these crimes in any state, and track them state to state. This also means people can report them state to state.
Now, I imagine that child pornography/sex with minors (statutory rape)/soliciting sexual acts with minors/ whatever this guy's doing is a federal crime. (I don't know if rating underage girls in their underwear is classified as child porn, but it sounds dangerously close and super illegal). Because of the Internet, these pictures are probably coming in from multiple states. It also means that the people who want to report him are in multiple states.
Now, if he's in LA, calling the normal cops in New York won't help. However, this could be (and probably is) a federal crime, so this will be under the FBI's jurisdiction. Because the FBI works on the federal level, they have much more reach and power than the local cops.
There might have been, I'm not sure. I just know that the FBI was created because of a major issue with state border jumping. Several years ago, an FBI agent was at "career day" when I was somewhere between sixth to eighth grade, where he told us that. My sister is actually good friends with the FBI agent's kids, so we know him and his family well.
I'm not doubting your explanation, I'm honestly not sure myself...I know the FBI was created because of jurisdictional issues (and maybe something to do with prohibition?) but I'm pretty sure they are pre-dated by the US Marshalls
Hereis what the FBI itself has to say. It's a tad long, and it might be a little biased, but it does answer the question of what was happening and why it was created. I didn't read the whole article, but hopefully this helps you out.
The Marshalls' duties are now less focused in investigation and more so with the people of the justice system, but this was not always so.
The Marshals Service is attached to the Judicial branch of government, and is the enforcement arm of the federal courts. It is the primary agency for fugitive operations, responsible for prisoner transport, the protection of officers of the court, and for the effective operation of the judiciary. The Marshals Service operates the Witness Protection Program, and serves federal level arrest warrants.
But the FBI probably has a shit ton of things to handle than to go after a guy because teenage parents cant babysit their teenagers properly. Not sating he is not creepy im just saying you are more than likely get a faster response from local autority.
Not necessarily true. I am sure the FBI has a sex offender or child porn division whose sole purpose is to bust major crimes in that area. Just like how local police departments have narcotics divisions who only really deal with narcotics.
Oh hey! I know this answer! First hand experience. It's because the FBI is the one that handles child porn cases(in this case, grooming underage women to send him pics in their underwear or for a "rate" of attractiveness is definitely in the realm of CP). Normal law enforcement will defer to the FBI, or Interpol if it's being done out of country. Kind of on the same par as how the Secret Service handles major financial crime, even though normal LE can initiate an investigation. They're still required to notify the federal agency.
I assume that people do but it goes nowhere as I get the impression that it is borderline legal sort of thing. I don't know specifically what is considered child porn or not but I assume that scantly clad teenage girls isn't the same in the eyes of the law as naked teenage girls. And "rating them on their attractiveness" isn't quite saying that your implying anything sexual, even though it more or less is.
I don't think it "lessens the severity" but rather doesn't have the added crime of blackmail or something. Courts to my understanding don't take crimes like these lightly, regardless of the circumstances.

That guy is retarded if I'm thinking of the same person. As someone in the Air Force he bashes the whole branch and the military because they yelled at him during BASIC TRAINING! Literally the part of joining the military the military. Where they're supposed to make you grow thick skin and grow up.
Also he signed up for SERE a survival expert career in the Air Force used to trained others how to survive in the wild and one of the final tests was to kill a rabbit and eat it for food. He thought that was downright cruel to kill an animal and eat it.. even though he would have to teach others how to do the same properly so they could survive in the wild and not die.
He thought that was downright cruel to kill an animal and eat it
Ironically, he killed a turtle due to putting it under a plastic tote...outside...in the dead of summer. Then, he started ranting about "how meat is murder" when people called him out about it. Of course, he changed the story, claiming that the turtle died of stress not asphyxiation and heat stroke. And that he "didn't know" you aren't supposed to put turtles underneath totes without breathing holes...in his twentys.

Yeah, my first gf loved him, I immediately recognized the dude was a pathetic creep and brought it up, only to be told that I'm obviously just jealous...right.

The dude is hateful as hell. Even before he went this crazy. Tried to watch a few of his vids in his early days and he was still hateful. Dont know how he still has as many views/subs as he does.
Then again when people like the Amazing Atheist exist I am not surprised. (And that guy is wierd too, but that is a whole other story. Youtube drama is so much fun to get into.)
Watched Blaire whites vid on that and you 2 seem to be saying the same thing. Keep in mind I typically agree with her and think Onision is a cunt due to his recent relationship ship bullshit, but you and blaire got it wrong.
Most of the guy's demo is shockingly women between 20-35 and the threads in which girls are rated aren't threads started by him. The users on his site start the threads and ask for him to rate them, on occasion he does which is weird.
I don't remember exactly, but on the thread that got exposed it's a user just being self conscious about their weight and him telling them they look fine and have nothing to be ashamed of.
He made a video on it which is probably bias, but it sure as hell seems to be more factual than what blaire and you are saying. Again, I don't like the guy, he's a little bitch and a cunt.

Interesting, I personally havent looked a whole lot into it. I went off of a few news sites, a few vids on youtube, and hearsay on Reddit. So my information probably has a few things wrong. There were some underage girls among it though. He posted on of the girls pics in a video, and the girls older sister reported him for distributing a pic of her younger sister in her underwear. So it may not be all of them, but there are a few among them.

I remember being subscribed to him years ago back when he was still with his first wife. His videos were pretty funny despite being the whole "lol I'm so random" type videos. But then he had what seemed like a messy divorce, and got some really young obnoxious girlfriend.

Its not so much that but everything thrown together. He has dated multiple girls underage, and proceeded to dump them once they got to around 20. He is generally creepy with his fanbase, and its just odd.
If his channel was based around positive self image, or some kind of body based topic, then it wouldnt be as creepy. Its the fact that it is so out of line from his typical content and how it is based mostly around young teens that makes it creepy.

Onision had an ex wife, and I remember he would post videos of her while she was in distress and he wouldn't do anything to help her, but sits there video taping her. He later posts a video, claiming that it was all a prank, but even so that's really messed up. Onision has a long, long history of being an asshole. He targets other Youtubers as well, such as Mr Repzion, Emma Blackberry, and Pewdiepie, etc.

Yeah the guy is a dick. At this point I only think he has the platform he does because people keep watching it as a train wreck, much like the Kardashians. If we just ignored him completely he would fade into obscurity. He is kind of already there though.
Ah yes, Onision. The dude that jumped into Internet stardom by jumping up and down in a banana costume in front of a green screen whilst screaming "I'm a banana!".
I've only seen his video about the Air Force and how cruel they were to him. If you know anything about service in the Air Force you know that everything he was bitching about is common place and for a reason. He even complained about how anal they were about hair regs. If you can't keep a professional haircut, maybe you shouldn't be in the fucking military.

They do, you have to be a member to see them. He may of shut it down recently though due to the attention it was getting. There were a couple of news sites reporting it.
Wait he is still a thing. I remember seeing his shit pop up when I was watching Like old Smosh videos and Fred back in like fourth grade. That was like ten years ago. They died off and HE stayed?

Eh, not really a popular thing among most people, but the teenage girl community loves him, and he has some of the extreme far left teens/edgy teens as well.
Not so much popular as much as catering to who he knows will bring him money, and apparently pleasure.
This shit needs to be reported if you know the links you should show them. If enough reports go through action may be taken.

Well the FBI does rub half the CP sites out there and have made upgrades to the sites. Their methods regarding this kind of thing are quite questionable. For comparison when a human trafficking ring or drug ring are cracked they take it down as the head honchos are the ones they are after. For whatever reason with CP they feel it's worth it to keep the site up to catch what are the equivalent of basic drug users.
All that aside I had no idea he was so creepy. I've watched some of his videos but I can't remember ever seeing one where he critics young girls bodies, unless those videos are only on his blog.

Not vids, they are posts on his site. Last time I checked you cant see the photos he is commenting on unless you are a member, so I cant tell what they are. Based off of what others have said, that is what it is. And the few that you can see. Dude is a creep.
And on the FBI thing, they arent producing it. As horrible as this may sound, that stuff is already out there on the internet. If the FBI isnt hosting it on a site, there is another Pedophile site that is. If it is always going to be there, might as well use it to capture some of them in the process. Its not like those images and videos can be removed from the web. Once its there, it is there permanently in some way shape or form.

But you miss my comparison to other illegal operations. They bust human trafficking, drug, weapon, everything except these CP sites. They didn't leave the Silk Road up to keep catching people. Beside the ones they are catching are the consumers, not the producers. It's never that productive to go after individuals as they have no control over the material. Adding to they aren't just keeping the sites up or running ~half of them they are upgrading them too to run better. It makes no sense.

Unsure if the forums are still there. Probably are, but with the amount of hype it got he may of shut it down. He has done it before
I'm late to the thread, but I Googled it and it could be Derek Deso. I clicked on one of his videos, and it looks like a lot of videos are pranks on his girlfriend.
Cot Dammit Elizabeth? I found it funny for maybe two videos, then he started to be such an asshole screaming at how fat his (super skinny) girlfriend is and stealing food from her hands. Even if she's in on it, I don't find it very funny

What about the one where the guy and girl prank each other constantly and they both seem to genuinely like it though, that channel is pretty entertaining.
No it's a couple in their mid 20s. She's blonde if I remember and I think they live somewhere down south like Florida. One thing be did, for example, was hide in the garbage pail as she pulled in the driveway and scared her. Nothing malicious.
IIRC people like them for their personality over their pranks. They did a daily vlog which was very popular, and people loved them for them regardless of what their content was. Unfortunately, that daily vlog is what killed their relationship, and they're no longer together : (

If it's the guy I'm thinking of, he's a huge dick to his girlfriend.
The last video I saw, she had thrown out his FIFA game because he wasn't helping with chores and was flat out ignoring her to play video games all day. So he decides to take her make up bag and destroy everything in it and write 'BITCH' in lipstick on their bathroom mirror.
Now, I'm not saying she's an angel, but all of that make up cost way more than his FIFA game. If it really upset him so much that she destroyed his game, he should've just asked her to shell out the $60 or so to replace it rather than destroy literally hundreds of dollars worth of her things and, to top it off, call her a bitch.
My boyfriend and I joke around a lot and wrestle and cuss each other out as a joke, but their relationship is just borderline abuse.

You realize this is completely fake and that they're making a ton of money with it? Can't believe so many people feel bad for the girl and don't realize that both of them are doing it for money.
The amount of money wasted in that video is nothing to them and they're acting.
Secondly, she destroyed his shit and he responded in kind, and you think that makes him a dick? Why do so many women always side with the woman in any man vs woman situation? It's gross.

Alright, reverse the situation. Say he tossed out a $60 makeup set of hers because she was neglecting stuff, and she reacted by destroying hundreds of dollars of his stuff then wrote bastard on the tv
First action is still a dick move, but the reaction is way over the top and inexcuseable reguardless
sogwennn ยท 8 points ยท Posted at 08:07:27 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I'm guessing they don't realize how expensive makeup is, let alone anything beyond, like, walmart or target level prices.
An 'affordable' setup of foundation, blush, mascara, eyeliner, lipstick, color corrector, and a color balm can run you $70~, and if you start getting pricey, that shit can easily jump over $200. For ONE set of products. A PS4 is $250. I mean, everything in my go-to makeup bag (not my WHOLE makeup bag, my overnight with maybe a dozen items including brushes) is about $250.
His reaction, even faked, is waaaaaay over the top.
First of all, you're just taking this persons perception of what it costs as a fact. This person is clearly a biased moron. Did you even read her comment?
If it really upset him so much that she destroyed his game, he should've just asked her to shell out the $60
She justifies destroying his game, then says the way he should have responded was by asking her to pay for it. Basically, he's just supposed to accept this behavior and politely ask her to pay for the thing she broke. Anything more than that and he's the asshole. Then she says:
and, to top it off, call her a bitch.
Like this is some big crime. Guess what, if you destroy your partner's belongings, you are a bitch.
If someone spits in your face and you punch them in response, I wouldn't consider you the dick. And you know what, neither would anyone else if both people were men.
Edit: Lol, clicked on your name, see you moderate something called BardicTale. Who would have guessed you're a neckbeard?
No, but I would consider them a dick if they kept punching or even started kicking them. Again, first action is a dick more and is about more than just the monetary loss, but also a violation of their own property. But it doesn't justify a massive escalation that most normal people should have stopped before they managed to get to that stage. Honestly, I'd even see a, "What the fuck?" <insert yelling here> "Then maybe mention it instead of destroying my stuff, fuckhead!" as being possibly warranted
Anyone who views that situation and doesn't at the very least say they are both dicks, is a very unreasonable person.
She said "she's no angel". It's like she thinks that behavior is within the realm of normal. And even makes a big deal out of him calling her a bitch. And this isn't an isolated thing, it happens all the time.
Women will side with other women more often than not. Men will also side with women more often than not in a man vs woman situation. Not only is it a shitty thing that is near universal in the west, but it's made worse by the stalwart denial of it even existing as a concept.

I'm pretty sure the girlfriend of the one I'm thinking of is part of the act because of the time he "pranked" her by making it look like he'd killed their child. If someone legit did that to me I'd immediately take my child from them and (divorce them/stab them in the face).
Those videos are pretty bad, but an even worse thing I saw recently was a "prank troll" boyfriend "ripping" on his gf like in the vids ur mentioning but it was so obviously scripted and trying to appeal to "urban" internet slang or whatever that it was just so cringey. I mean worse as in harder to watch obviously haha

Might be Brad Holmes? I've seen a few YouTubers like Chubbs call him out. He makes videos that pretty much higlight his girlfriend being dumb but they're pretty obviously fake. The sort of shit your parents think is real and find hilarious. (Source: my parents showed me it and they thought it was real and hilarious)
Sorry guys I really don't know what his channel is called, I don't keep track of assholes.
Awesome response. Made me realize I spend too much time keeping track of assholes on the internet. Thanks u/sc3nix for making take a hard look at my life.
The "Cot Damnit Elizabeth" videos are what I think your referring to and yea I guess it's funny to people who work out and eat healthy because that's typically what he's yelling at her about, the amount of people who found it entertaining disturbed me.

They're fake you mongoloid. It's not abuse when they plan it and pretend it was a surprise.
Personally I'm not the biggest fan of his, but I saw a video of his girlfriend taking shit from the garden and spreading it on a sandwich and giving it to him to which he then ate. So in my opinion the both of them are just as bad as the other and are just fishing for views.
Plenty of people are in abusive relationships where absolutely heinous things are done to them. They either are brainwashed by the abuser or trapped in some other way like financially, afraid of what would happen if they leave and a combination of those factors. Lots of "normal people" are abused, but it's usually not put on the internet for attention which could actually drive the victim into a further state of denial if there are "fans" of this weirdo who are reacting positively

A lot of top 10 videos in general bug me. I like a lot of them as they're fun and interesting, but there are those youtubers who base their channels off of just top 10 videos and the topics get so mundane and stupid.

Just anyone who has given the topic serious thought is interesting to watch. Doesn't matter if they are pro or amateur as long as they care about the subject, have given it a lot of thought, and have scripted the video so it has a bit of a flow to it.
Except it's not. It's not the best cheese at all. Provolone is nothing but the cheese haters cheese. There's no enthusiasm there, no passion. Provolone is what children ask for when they don't know what to get so the round one is fine. As someone with 50 years of experience in the cheese industry I find it frankly insulting that you would think provolone is the best cheese. This exeprience uniquely qualifies my to maliciously attack you for your cheese preference. The only way I could figure that you would like provolone more than say, mozzarella or gouda, is that you were a child when you aquired your taste for it and have only regressed into this childlike state for a cheese which, frankly, sucks. I feel sorry for you and anyone you come in contact with. May God have mercy on your provolone loving soul.

Excuse me? Any fool would know that the best cheese is a toss up between either cheddar or blue. I noticed you skirted around the issue of what cheese is in fact the best, so I shall address it for you. Blue cheese reigns supreme in terms of simple taste, as it can work well as an addition to a main meal or appatiser. Perhaps you can even put it in a salad, if you feel so inclined. But nothing can beat the pure jack-of-all-trades that is cheddar. It serves to inhance any meal, and can be put in just about anything. Pizza? Of course. Grilled chees? Nothing else is acceptable. On a cheeseburger? Well, obviously. In summary, you clearly are lacking quite a few important facts on which cheeses are superior.

Aw, don't hate on WhatCulture too much. Even their cheesiest lists are well-written and nicely produced, and sometimes entertaining with that terrific sarcasm that can only come from Brits.
With no prior knowledge of WhatCulture, that sounds exactly like a channel that would have a top ten cheeses list.

I think that's the case with the Gaming and other "culture" channels, but the Wrestling is pretty legit. They've created actual characters on who does the ten lists, do reactions, talk about random things in wrestling, and have an actual wrestling promotion called WCPW which tends to get some of the biggest non-WWE names to do gigs.
I like WahtCulture too, although I don't watch their videos unless I have nothing better to do and it's likely they'll cover something I like.
Cinefix, on the other hand, is so much better. Even with all the repeated movies, they're covering those movies from different angles. The lists are still really shallow, but deeper than the other ones we're all mentioning.
I do like the '9 things WWE want you to forget about __________' that WhatCulture make, they remind me of how crazy things were back then and how many blunders were made
That's it - we'd get some basic cheddar shit, with maybe a couple of parmesan references to pretend like they're hip, and none of the truly iconic cheeses
Thank you for subscribing to Cheese Facts, your source for super 'cheesy' facts about cheese!
There is no exact information regarding the origin of cheese, archaeological studies have shown the origin of cheese dates as far back as 6000 BC. Studies also show that during that era cheese was made from cowโs milk and goats in Mesopotamia.

Fuckin Matthew Santoro and his top ten lists. Like yeah he adds value by editing it and making it look cool, but unless its a topic I care about or an interested in there's no way I'm going to sit and watch through a video on a topic even he doesn't care about.

r/smoobypost is pretty much half top-ten videos. Well, the title says it's about top ten anime fights, but all I see is spongebob and marge simpson duking it out.
Some WatchMojo's are pretty cool. I do agree about the 'nothingness' it has though. Do think its pretty hard to come up with some meaningful ones though.
That's because they're constantly being linked to the whatever is hot at the moment on people's pages. I've seen videos I watched years ago pop up again for no apparent reason just to remind me "hey, you remember seeing this video? yes? well go ahead and watch it one more time won't hurt you."
It's like YouTube is the worst re-poster.
I feel that top 10s are fine if you can get the youtuber's personal view of things.
This right here. Let's say they're a gamer and listing their favourite games, boss battles, games soundtracks, etc. They're showing their opinion on the field they show knowledge and experience in. They're not coming up with ridiculous ideas to keep doing it (i.e the cheese example)
Hell I saw a top 10 channel recently that must have been churning them out constantly b/c they used a robot voice-over to do the talking as well as having several hundred videos. I can only imagine they just hastily tossed together vids with a tid bit of script to go with it and pumped it out while producing others in the process. Couldn't have much overhead at all beyond finding the list of top products or items google generates upon a cursory search.

Over on the Python sub a guy was taking about a script he wrote that does something similar with funny comp videos. It scrapes vine and YouTube and he does very minimal effort to finish the video and post. Makes a decent profit from it.
Thanks for corroborating that there are people who do this. It seemed like there might be a neat programming solution to do it. My hats off to anybody who took the time. The video sucked, but still a neat project in any regard. I for one welcome or new software & soon to be robot overlords.
For that matter I can only imagine this is also how FailArmy, and the hundreds of other clones, make their videos. Scrape funny videos and submissions. Categorize them with tags. Pull up common tags & string together in videos. Rinse and repeat for various video subjects.
God, is someone at WatchMojo fucking some YouTube bigwig? Every time I accidentally watch one of their videos, they proceed to utterly dominate my suggested videos for the next week.

Or you see the same list showing up on multiple channels. At least change the damn order
You don't like Looper? I definitely don't feel that way about their videos, in fact it seems like most of them just end with "x person has a family/focus on other projects". They get into some stuff about the industry and analyze the actor as a brand too, so while the reason may be that directors don't want to cast them, the reasoning is always different.
I'm at the point where if I see a top 10 video that looks interesting, I open it in incognito mode just to avoid a billion of them showing up in my suggestion feed.

Exactly. Sure, I might just want some light entertainment, but I'd really like to learn something too!
Yeah, it feels a lot different when it's someone on an individual channel doing it rather than a more group/business like channel. I'm interested to hear one person I enjoy talk about their top 10 books or movies and why. Not interested in the top 10 car chase scenes or top 10 movie couples.
Someone who has during some time now developed a very professional yet entertaining take on the concept is the youtuber Lemmino (https://youtu.be/rsJH5fxDCA0) who I would say has everything one would ever ask from this genre of videos, a balance between light/heavy topics, good language, good production, well paced, informative almost educational but still with humour and a personal twist. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Yeah, WatchMojo bases their top tens off of what people agree with most I feel, which wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing if it didn't mean doing zip zero research and not including lesser known things that may be just as good or better.
The thing with WatchMojo is they are always so predictable. The number one spot will always be the generally best accepted thing in that area or "the original"
I just hate it when watchmojo does something like "Top 10 marvel movies" or "Top 10 Adam Sandler movies", when there really isn't a big enough pool to pull from. I just see them, recall all of the options they have to choose from from the list they mentioned, and shake my head.
I'm actually subscribed to WatchMojo. A lot of the time I'm watching their videos because I'm trying to guess what will be in the top 3. Fun little game when you need something playing in the background.
I hate them in general cause once I watch one, my entire recommended list is screwed for days! Although I can't help it with a few TV shoes ones and promptly delete them from my history so the cancer doesn't metastasize...
I like Strange Mysteries....and I kinda hate myself for it..

I think there can be a place for some top 10s, like where you might not have much knowledge on the topic, and it goes over things so that you're more informed. Like, I saw a documentary about Heaven's Gate (suicide cult) and that had a related video 10 dark documentaries, that I had not known before.
Another that I remember watching was something like "Most important punk bands", so if you're getting into punk, you find out the ones that a lot of others have enjoyed.
Obviously, all this could be done with a couple google searches or looking up on Wikipedia, but whatever.
Yeah. A top 10 of mkbhd phones or something is fine. But thats not the type of top 10s that are annoying

The worst part about whatchmojo is they don't show the clips. They talk over them, describing the movies and intro the whole thing with an introductory paragraph like it's a high school paper.
I realized what a load of garbage WatchMojo is when I realized their lists always just barely skim the surface of American public awareness and involve 0% research (see their "top 10 battles of history" video, goddamn what a boring fucking video).
I find WatchMojo's top tens (on movies, although I've seen there are others) rather practical to find movies that have a certain aspect to them, or just maybe a group of movies that I hadn't known yet.
I think I found The Hunt for Red October (Movies about/ on a submarine) and Minority Report (Sci-fi movies) through their top ten Lists.
They are of course not quite impervious to bias and sometimes give of the impression that their basing the ranking on how they think the audience might rank them, so I just treat the videos as "10 movies that might be worth watching".
Some YouTube channels look for a good video to make by calculating what their fans want, what's popular now, whatever. Watchmojo plays the system by saying " well, if we push out enough videos a day, at least one is bound to end up on SOMEBODY'S recommended feed"

I enjoy watching top 10s on Lemmino. He only does one or two a month, and really goes into some detail (not a top 10, but he did a crazy in-depth video about "we eat __ spiders while we sleep"). I suggest checking him out.

Not sure how I feel about this. I've spent well, an embarrassing amount of time watching their videos about what amounts to nothing I'm actually interested in. It's just kinda like Wikipedia link surfing and three hours later now you know the top 10 actors who almost got caught drilling their co-stars.
I don't have much respect for WatchMojo since they're using an incredibly cookie-cutter formula, making the videos very samey. But I will still occasionally watch them because you alway know what you're going to get.
Ashens is pretty cool, if you like British comedy with item reviews!

a lot of them get repeated with different names and the ordering is just a little different with one or 2 additional entries, list 25 is the worst for it.
There's a Spanish YouTuber called DrossRotzank who is constantly churning out these "Top 7 Most Disturbing X". And they're pretty shit, they're almost always stolen from reddit, or things that aren't really all that spooky but he plays it up to make it look like the scariest shit since Blair Witch.
One of my favorite WoW YouTubers, Danger Dolan, stopped doing actual good discussion videos for WoW and started a top x channel. He never returned to WoW videos. :(
Top 10 Fruit was a thing too. Avocados were ranked #10 because they were high in fat. That's all I remember. At that point I unsubscribed and never looked back.

And its all clearly information that's found in the top of the search page on Google when you type in something and a little Wikipedia box pops out and displays a tiny amount of random information on the topic.
Number 10: I'll say it again. If the taste is heinous, shove it up your anus! you'll get drunk better, faster, stronger.
Number 9: That's wine and dine! A Chardonnay and a fish fillet, blend it up, dinner and a drink, now that won't stink.
Number 8: It must be fate. A Zinfandel for this infidel make me think, don't ask, do tell. I stick a funnel in my butt.
Number 7 is Levant. That's right, I soak a full body bread in a Jewish rye bread, and this ass, gets fed. Aka, you freeze the loaf and chisel off little suppositories that you stick inside your ass all night like little Tic-Tacs.
Jake: Is that what you do with Tic-Tacs?
Number 6: It's for dicks! Take a Capri-Sun straw and stick it in your urethra. With a reverse piss, you can't miss.
Number 5: P. nomwar? More like p. yes. - Lar.
Number 4: One Tequila, two Tequila, three Tequila, sore. Ow, if your anus ain't bruised all night, then you ain't funnelin' right.
Number 3: You and me. Sippin' on some English tea. (We're sipping it through our assholes.)
Number 2: How 'bout some Yoo-hoo where you poo-poo. That's right, it's already wet and brown downtown, mamma mia, that's some diarrhea!
Number 1: Have some fun in the sun, hun. Bring your ass to the beach, and flop it down like a leech. Put your knees by your ears, but don't feed your butt beers. Not Vodka nor Gin, no those can't go in. Spread your butt cheeks wide, stick that funnel inside, now wait for the tide you're going for a ride. You're a full grown guy, with a tight brown eye, so make sure your lips are sealed, and your rectum is peeled. Which alcohol is best, for your asshole that stretch? Not red nor white, nor Captain Morgan's Delight, no. What will save the day? Oh you don't say? it's: drum roll please.
A worse problem is when youtubers make top 10s and they use someone else's order and descriptions. I watch Spanish-speaking youtubers, and some of them blatantly use the same structure of English-speaking channels. They are basically translating, but they take the credit.

Little bit of nerd rage here but there was a top ten list of most important start wars battles and they put the battle of yavin below a bunch of shit from the clone wars.
Both the most iconic battle and first major defeat of the Empire, and one that spawned way more open rebellion, is less important than fucking skirmishes?

Top 10 lists are almost always entirely bullshit. They're a terrible way to format opinion pieces even when they're taken seriously (terrible for substantive understanding and discussion, not terrible for grabbing views), but very rarely are they taken seriously anymore anyway. When was the last time you saw a Top 10 list that explained its ranking criteria beforehand, or was written by someone with an actual background of knowledge in the topic? Probably a very long time, because Top 10 lists aren't even about conveying a legitimate opinion anymore. As practiced by the modern Internet, they are a tool solely designed to present shallowly controversial opinions to generate discussion and views. And when you think about it, "controversial" in this context amounts to little more than "useless". Top 10 lists themselves have very little value other than to present the opinions of the author, so if the author is consciously manipulating their "opinion" in order to generate "controversy", what is even the point anymore? You're not getting any real information, and you're not learning what the author thinks either! For outlets that have perfected the art of writing clickbait Top 10 lists, it's just bullshit wrapped in bullshit for the sake of bullshit. I hate Top 10 lists.

I think Steve and Larson are okay because they don't take themselves seriously and constantly say things like, "you know what this proves Larson?" "What's that Steve?" "We're running out of ideas!" Stuff like that (paraphrased). Snake lady tiddies, you are the breast!
A YouTuber called LEMMiNO makes top 10 videos on certain topics like space or a certain video game and his video concepts are pretty much as basic as you can get, but he executes this "Top 10" YouTube style so well. He actually puts passion into the videos and it feels like I'm watching a college presentation rather than a shady cash grab produced by some degenerate because he goes very in depth into what he talks about. It's very easy to tell that he does proper research and is really into what he makes which is not there in most other "Top 10" YouTube channels.
AllTime10s is a pretty good channel if you're into list videos. They don't do top tens, just lists of 10. Some of their videos in the last year or so have gotten a little clickbaity, but they have a lot of weird little things you wouldn't normally think about. I remember one that was 10 names that are legally banned somewhere in the world. And they cite all their information, which is pretty neat.
As someone who writes for a lot of Top10 or list style channels, I am also amazed by how awful some of them are. I sympathise that it's hard to be original but the amount of times you see something either utterly pointless or heroically unoriginal, it sometimes feels that some channels only have the ability to regurgitate stuff they've seen elsewhere on youtube, rather than going outside it for information

I highly suggest Dreamcastguy for top 10 videos. He does a series called Top Ten Thursday and he gives very insightful, fairly ranked opinions on many different areas of gaming. Him, and the Gamer From Mars are the only list channels that I enjoy whatsoever. Give them a watch if you're bored sometime!
Yeah, most top 10s annoy me, especially watchmojo. On the other hand, Matthew Santoro is a top 10 channel that I check out every once in a while, and it's decently entertaining.
I have some acquaintances from college that now are desperately trying to get their website off the ground that is solely them ranking stuff. They are not entertaining.
I'm not going to lie it's REALLY easy for me to fall into a Top 10 hole. Especially when they're of the creepy/"I want to Believe" variety.
I remember a redditor linked to something like a "Top 10 most credible Alien sightings" type video a few years back and 2-3 hours of related videos later my Youtube recommendations still haven't recovered.
When he transitioned from shrieking over games to Filthy Frank/H3H3 style comedy he got much more tolerable. He has so much money he can alienate anyone he wants by doing what he wants to do.
pewdiepie and his fanbase were pretty cancerous 2/3 years ago and now I'm subbed to him and follow him on twitter... I'm glad a big youtuber actually changed for the better for once. cough ksi cough

Those are the list videos I really like. They're not "Top ten CRAZIEST things ever!" but just a few interesting things about a subject. Along with Lemmino I really like Scishow's list videos.
Gamer from Mars did a video about this. At first I thought it was interesting because he wasn't really ranking them just stating that famous youtubers had passed away. But now that I think about it's pretty fucked up.
Jessiray ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 04:46:25 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I saw that video and I didn't think it was too distasteful, he seemed to just be talking about different youtubers that existed, what their legacy was and how they came to pass. If he did rank them I would think that would be in poor taste but I don't think talking about them and their content is inherently bad. These people did choose to make their life somewhat public and would probably want to be remembered. I don't see how it's that much different than say, talking about David Bowie's or Carrie Fisher's works and legacy.
Ugh, one channel I subscribe to does this and I HATE it but the content is really interesting so I just kind of listen to it while I'm browsing elsewhere. They put a goddamn jump scare in the intro, too. I know when to mute it, but my ears hurt for the newcomers who are wearing headphones.
Your guess is as good as mine. I'm not all that phased by gore, and the thumbnails are extreme even for me. They have a lot of gory pictures in the actual videos, too, so I often just listen to them while I browse other sites.
I can't even know what I'm looking at the pictures. One thumbnail makes me wonder if it's an animal or skin infection and I really don't want a closer look. Haven't seen all of them but do they post people getting their heads blown off, not even in war context?
No, I've never seen anything that extreme. Some will show pictures of bodies or crime scenes, but they're heavily pixelated so you don't even see anything. Showing an actual killing will get your video removed from Youtube. You have to go to LiveLeak for that.

I feel like I am in the minority of enjoying creepy stories but I don't want to see creepy images or get jump scared. Like I could enjoy creepy pasta but I don't want to see all the creepy and often shocking images it usually entails. Even an unexpected picture of Jeff these days will make me spook out of my chair a bit if I don't know what I am running into.
I liked ReignbotHorror for a while for her lost media and online urban legends videos (she's a good narrator and talks about interesting stuff even if you gotta take it with a grain of salt) but I had a playlist of her stuff going while I cleaned one day and saw a super creepy horrifying-by-my-standards image out the corner of my eye and was too much of a pussy and had to run to turn it off. I like NightMind a lot for the same reasons and he seems to use random imagery less, but can still play the occasional spooky clip (but he usually gives context and I can skip the segment containing it if I don't feel like watching the whole thing). Maybe I just need to find podcasts about spooky things to scratch that itch because spooky/gory clips and pics at a certain level become too much for me. I'm not even gonna look up that YouTuber you're talking about. While I am sure his content is interesting, I'll pass thanks.

It's really tasteless to "rank" deaths, like some deaths are better than others.

There's this one channel I can't remember the name of but it does top 10 lists involving movie trivia. Like "top 10 movie scenes that weren't part of the script but made the final cut"
Then the person talking describes the scene except they never actually play the scene for the viewer to see they just play other random clips of the movie in the background. That's just one example but they do it on all of their videos and its fucking ridiculous
There are some 'Top X things etc' channels that really do their research and provide genuinely interesting, factually accurate content. Then there's people like this.
EDIT: Some of my favourites are TatsTopVideos (Does a lot of horror based content, i.e. 'Top 45 scariest SCP's', 'Top 30 most disturbing bosses in video games' etc.
Been getting into GameRanx's videos more recently too, they do some interesting stuff over on their channel also.
Honestly, there's only one Top anything channel I like, and that's Top5s. He at least puts the time, research, and skepticism in his videos, since he generally deals with the paranormal, supernatural, cryptids, and folklore. They're really interesting, and started doing short documentaries on specific topics. He's definitely a quality "Top" channel.

Cyra is not on the same level as Symphony Pearl, though. it's an atypical name, but not as ridiculously abnormal.
i agree with you though - people are going to pick on other people regardless of name, but if your name is excessively strange it just gives them another avenue. and that sucks. it shouldn't work that way, but it does.
speaking as someone with an abnormal (also middle eastern) last name that no one can figure out how to pronounce correctly. i got hassled for it. i would've been hassled anyway, but it was just another aspect of me to pick at.
people suck, is all. i'm not sure how old Symphony is but i hope she learns, or has learned, to take pride in her name.
There are kids name leaf and river in my daughters classes. I doubt symphony is really that far fetched for parents now. People name their kids weird stuff all the time.
DudeLikeHella isn't bad at all... https://youtu.be/LbwokYTj7sI married his befriend, and now have a beautiful baby girl named Chell. Here is their first date video: it is the best https://youtu.be/Z2rxaRzEzGs . You just need to find the right people.
When katersoneseven moved in with him and pretty much completely ruined his first marriage it was a different thing altogether though. His first wife, Stephanie, and him were so adorable. I lost all respect and stopped watching once the whole thing with Kate happened though.
Have you watch the one with Kristine in it? He said he wasn't in a good place mentally, until he met Kristine. He has totally done a 180 on his personality. You can tell from the new videos to the old. From the old videos I watched of her, she was a total bitch...she didn't laugh at any of his jokes, rolled her eyes half the time...while Kristine laughs every time He farts, and this video pretty much sums up their friendship https://youtu.be/xa8WdD9lNU8 . I hope you can change your mind and fall back in love you with him and Kristine. He wasn't complete until he met her.
Yeah I've seen a couple of videos including the one where his wife tells him she's pregnant. He seems quite happy and different in them. I guess that's good for him that everything eventually worked out.
Also didn't he take piss out of the toilet? Would the pee even still be potent enough for a good reading, because I have had friends that had a negative test while they were pregnant purely because they tested at night and not in the morning when their hCG levels were higher.
I just rewatched the video and he did just that. He used an eyedropper which is better than just scooping up a handful of piss like I was expecting. But still. If my husband told me he played around in my piss and took a pregnancy test 'for' me I don't think I would be too pleased.
I just think it was pretty shit to do that and put it straight on YouTube too. I can't remember but I'm fairly certain it was uploaded pretty much as soon as he shot it and edited it, but you're supposed to wait til 12 weeks before announcing a pregnancy.

That is when it is most likely to miscarriage, so waiting is just sort of a safety net in case the pregnancy falls through. I would imagine it would be heartbreaking to have people asking about 'the baby' four months after the fact because they told everyone after only six weeks.
I have a few friends who announced early and a friend who lost her baby and although she said it was the most awful thing having to explain, she preferred that people knew because it meant she wasn't having to go through her grief alone and isolated. It's all subjective though really, though I personally would probably only tell my mum that early.

Something about pissing in the middle of the night and not wanting to flush because it would wake the baby. Idk I personally couldn't leave piss sitting in the toilet, but I also don't have kids.
Fun fact: hCG levels aren't higher in the morning, urine just tends to be more concentrated because it's typically been 7-8 hours since last peeing. Regardless if she was actually pregnant, it probably would have been detectable at any time of day because hCG levels are typically high enough by the time a woman misses her period that using first morning urine to test doesn't matter.

Same here. Her shit eating grin gave her away instantly. I don't know how ppl don't see it. Also the way it was edited only LOOKED like he got the piss from the toilet.

I saw this ages ago, and I only remember it because the whole thing seemed so dumb to me. I assume their efforts to make a viral video must have worked well if even I saw it, since I don't generally watch channels like that.
I think you're referring to the guy who used the pod out of the toilet to surprise his wife with a positive pregnancy test. I think their names were Sam and Nia? They also got kicked out of playlist live for trying to fight some other vloggers (Cullen & Katie)
Those make me so angry and one time my heart fell when some Russian youtuber(i wouldn't be able to recognize who again) was dead set on eliciting a violent reaction and he prefaced it with "black people are scary"....people think im scary because im black. That really did kinda hurt.
That's incredibly shitty. Like I know this doesn't do anything but just know that this Internet stranger is really pissed off about what happened and you didn't deserve it
People antagonizing black people to elicit aggressive or violent reactions then comment section is filled with "animal niggers being niggers" shit like that and these youtubers do read their comments and say nothing about it or stop.

I mean it kinda makes sense though. You're more likely to get a violent reaction from a black person in a low-income area than from like a soccer mom or even another black person or whoever in a middle-class area.
Its amazing how many people think racist opinions are factual

That's not an opinion though. It's common sense. Go mouth off to someone in the hood, and if you're not bleeding out on the sidewalk, go mouth off to a soccer mom once your wounds heal. You'll notice the difference.
You've obviously never lived in the burbs and gone to little league games, parents from upper class and of all races will straight out brawl with one another.
Hell watch real housewives of ANYWHERE, these people are mostly white and act like animals so it's not a race thing. You're making it a race thing because you're ignorant to the fact that every human being is capable of rage, anger, and violence.
I know plenty of people in the "hood" who aren't violent and would rather just go about their day than to be accosted by idiots pulling pranks based on racial prejudices.
Now if you wanted to make an educated guess as to why people in the "hood" are more violent then you should really think about the factors that put people in the "hood", poverty for example.
Even if that's true, that's no excuse to go provoking (or paying actors) into being violent to push a narrative because you're going around calling the the n word for shits and giggles on youtube. Like 95% of these are fake anyway. Black people are like everyone else. Some people will lash out, but most will see what you're tryibg to do and ignore you or tell you to fuck off.

Black people on an individual level are exactly like everyone else. But on a statistical level, no, they're not. What this means is that if you take any one random black person and any one random white person, you're more likely to end up with a violent criminal as the black person than as the white person.

I first saw this used in satire and it blew my mind that people actually put that in titles.

I think caps are fine for breaking news on a subject that is actual breaking news and has the meat of the topic in the title. It's not clickbait if it is exactly what it says it is.
That's part of the reason why I love Julien Solomitas vlogs. His titles are in lowercase and 99.9% time not click bait. Plus he actually interacts with his fans on here (/u/orangevodjuiceka hiiiii) and on Twitter and on his streams. An all around great guy.
haha you guys are rad. thank you. and i think that's a fair percentage.. but get ready for that .1% I'll clickbait the fuck outta you for no reason at all. also lowercase master race
One of the most popular/infamous poketubers does exactly this. HOW TO GET 6IV DITTO EASY! Spoiler, you aren't getting a 6IV ditto lmao. This guy also made a video about how poketubing has really gone down hill because of click-bait poketubers.

There's this one guy called Generikb who does gaming videos and vlogs, and I'm not even exaggerating, every single video of his has a title in all caps and either multiple exclamation points or exclamation points mixed with question marks. It annoyed me for a while when I was subscribed to him, but I remembered thinking to myself, "It's not that big of a deal, it's still really good content. Try and ignore it." I eventually unsubscribed because he stopped playing games I was interested in watching.
Eh, as much as I think it's stupid that every video has it nowadays, it works so they do it. It's annoying yeah, but not pathetic. If it brings in good money from high views and ad rev, then why not?

That's usually the telltale sign that that YouTuber has gone from quality to quantity. Usually at that point their only video topics are to garner as many views as possible. I can give a pass to a few YouTubers though, because they hadn't changed
I tried to make a video with 10 seconds of the intro song to a show and I got flagged immediately. These people react to full 15 minute videos and nothing.
"Why was my lyrics video of Justin Bieber's 'I'm Sorry My Nipples Are So Brown' song taken down??? I downloaded it fair and square from mp3skull and i'm just promoting it!!!!"
The YouTube help forum is about twice as cancerous as the YouTube comments section.
If you make criticism of copyrighted work, or you transform the work into something that has a different purpose than the original, it is fair use. Using a copyrighted work as a part of yours without making criticism or changing the meaning or purpose is not.
So using bits of a movie to make a movie review, showing a video clip to criticize it's author, or writing a parody of a song is fair use. Using a bit of a movie or song as an opening shot for your work which does not make criticism, isn't.
I was making a parody of the intro. It was 5 or 10 seconds of the actual intro followed by our rendition of the intro.
I ended up just going with the sax part but it wouldve been funnier with the actual liytle piece of intro
[deleted] ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 23:58:05 on February 14, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
They're not under fair use at all. The main reason they don't go down is the big studios (movies or whatever) don't care about views on their own channels or ad revenue, they're just happy for exposure, and the small guys that get their content stolen usually don't know enough about anything to know how to fight it.
Their videos get taken down or have their revenue taken all the time. It doesn't matter because the video takes about a as long to make as it does to watch, and they have a million others anyway

I like that one guys channel where he steals videos and puts his face in the corner chuckling every couple minutes, offering no other commentary.
A lot of reaction channels do get flagged for using copyrighted audio. I'm not a huge fan of reaction videos but I'm friends with one of the biggest reactors and know after it happened a few times he got in direct contact with the network and they stopped auto flagging his stuff when he asked permission.
Sometimes it has to do with who has the legal power, money, and resources to stop you, or just who cares.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 10:49:30 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Because the studios issued tons of takedown notices, and sued google so much that they finally agreed to a Content ID system which proactively auto-flags content from those studios. It's a cost saving measure for YouTube.
Some indie vlogger isn't part of that system, and doesn't have the money for a protracted legal battle.
Did I not transform it enough, it was like 5 or 10 seconds of the music kicking in and when the main part of the song kicked in, it switched to a saxophone trying its hardest to be like the theme song.
To be fair. It is under fair use. I mean, it's shitty and just plain lazy, but it is under fair use. It's stretched beyond reason, but it does qualify, unfortunately. At least the examples I've seen.
Personally, I'm okay with ass hats mooching off of the policy if it means people who make legitimate content are protected. I just make sure to avoid them at all costs.
Hadger ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:44:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's pretty difficult to argue that reaction videos are protected under fair use. One consideration of fair use is how much of the content is used.
So, if I take bits and pieces of a movie and show myself laughing at it and commenting on it, that's protected under fair use.
But if I upload an entire movie to YouTube, even if I have my face in the corner and react to it, that's copyright infringement. Companies probably won't do anything about it if I counterclaim, but it's copyright infringement.
It's a strange system as (unless your with maker studios) you won't get flagged unless the other creator does something about it but let's say it's makriplier reacting to pewdiepie or jack there good friends and won't mind but if say yogscast did it they might be a bit annoyed but doubt they would do anything but with TV shows and music owned by big cope rations there like no you can't even put one frame on we don't care

It really depends on what they're adding to the video they're watching. Like, streaming video games is 95% about watching someone's reaction to playing that game, they're not making insightful comments about the game or anything.
If no one would watch your reaction video becuase the video itself is watermarked, are you actually doing anything? Do people actually value your reactions to something, or are they there for your commentary, or are you making this a transformative work somehow? Or are you just reuploading a niche video and not citing the source?
(I'm not sure if I misunderstood your comment, but) There are maaany reasons why I think gaming commentary videos are great.
Sometimes people can't afford to buy a game or some games are Playstation/Xbox exclusive (not available on PC).
Some games are difficult (for example, puzzle games) so a walkthrough helps if you get stuck. Or you can get better at a game by watching people who are good at it and copying their strategy.
Some games have multiple endings so it's interesting to see what decisions other people would make and why.
I cannot play horror games. At all. However, I am perfectly fine watching someone else play it. We both experience it at the same time without me being too chicken to finish the game.
This may be unpopular here but I will defend reaction videos.
For decades, actors have been told by acting coaches or directors or whoever that "acting is reacting". They need to find something external and develop a natural response to it.
Reacting is the core of so much of our greatest entertainment. In Jurassic Park, 90% of the magic comes from actors faces reacting to something.
To cut to the chase, reaction videos on youtube may look completely stupid and pointless but they're successful for a reason. They tap into the essence of acting theory and are compelling to those that enjoy those types of reactions.
It may be sad, but there's a deceptively thin line between some idiot jumping and screaming playing a horror game and the crew of the Nostromo screaming when the alien chestburster ruins dinner.

I don't think they mean those. There's channels where they watch YouTube videos and just laugh in the background. Stuff with the kids eating food or the fine bros is different in my opinion as it's far more about hearing how different demographics feel about things.

Yeah, this always gets to me.
I don't want to be the content police, but there are already places where you can share your opinions on videos you've watched. It's called the comment section.
It just feels so cheap to host an entire video of you just staring at the screen and saying nothing- bringing nothing interesting or worthwhile to the video at all- and just using the video as a redirection of traffic to your own channel.
Especially ones where they hardly react at all, it's just the original video with someone staring off into the distance and mumbling something every once in a while.
h3h3's reaction videos are more like "response" videos; they use another video or trend as inspiration and actually create notable content that largely stands on its own or adds something valuable. This kind of thing seems fine in my book.
It's the type of thing I've started taking to calling "Let's Watches" that get annoying. Like, they're just watching the video and reacting to the video exactly as the video's creators intended. I guess it helps people who have trouble forming their own opinions or want to feel like they have friends.

I'm fine with Renegades React, they at least try to add something to the video.

To be fair, there are a few decent ones out there amongst all the muck
Yes it depends, some people bring a unique point of view to videos while others it's low effort shit and just fake laugh and say "HAha! Thanks for watching being sure to like and subscribe and leave a comment about what you want me to watch next." No personality, no commentary, no jokes, nothing!! I have no idea how some of these people became popular.
Most people watch reaction vids because it's an easy way to watch things usually hit by copyright bots.
Go look at a reaction youtubers vid and while they 'reacting' to a marvel trailer has so many views, then 'reacting' to a new Dragonball Super episode will be x100 times more.
Such a lazy, half-assed way of making content.
They generally fall into 1 of 2 categories:
1) the lazy ones that just sit there barely emoting
2) the less lazy ones who go OTT with the reacting and gullible viewers thing it's 'personality' to be shrieking like a loon at a marvel trailer.
I personally enjoy watching some reaction videos to pivotal moments in shows I enjoy, and similar things. Some reaction youtubers make decent content of watching and sharing thoughts and reactions, Blind Wave and SithFurion for example.
If you want to add commentary, insightful dialogue, or something substantial that adds more content... Then that's fair. But if it's just you nodding and saying "alright, I feel this" then you're just stealing content and for some reason people will which it.

[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 01:54:16 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Honestly, the ones I like are the ones that already assume you have seen it, and are making their reaction AFTER they have seen the video as well. It makes for such a better video, because the youtuber is actually attentive to the audience and discussing it, instead of just staring at their computer screen, making comments at it, while the whole video plays out in a thumbnail at the bottom corner.
Well it depends on how they do it. If they're contributing relevant interesting commentary I think it gets a pass. For instance I watched a video of Jeff Gerstman from Giant Bomb talking over a Nintendo press conference recently and was quite entertained. Being a veteran of the of video game press I think his commentary added a lot to the video.
And they have millions of views. "teens react to celebrities reading mean tweets" how in the world are there so many people who find that kind of thing interesting?
I think it heavily depends on the content of the reaction videos. When they began taking off some big YouTubers really came down hard on a lot of them for good reason (See the entire iDubbbz Vs Jonx debacle). Those who literally sit and 'react' to top vine videos and try not to laugh challenges constantly, maintaining a perfect expressionless gaze into nothingness really don't deserve any kinda support they receive.
On the other hand there are reaction channels out there that really put some effort into their content, Blind Wave Productions for example react to all sorts of different TV shows and trailers, complete with extensive speculation and discussion post-reaction, not to mention great fan interaction. These guys have become so respected amongst their fanbase that a bunch of their fans banded together to get them a $3000+ camera for both their reactions and their own original content that they produce on the side.
It's real important to be able to differentiate those who really put the effort in, and those who jump on the bandwagon and turn on their potato webcam to record their LIVE IMPRESSIONS OF TRY NOT TO SEMI-SMIRK CHALLENGE (SUPER HARD, LIKE TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE GIVE UP NOW EDITION)
IIRC "reaction videos" became super popular in 2013 after the Red Wedding episode of Game of Thrones, because lots of book-readers surreptitiously recorded their friends and family watching the episode. In those cases I found them mildly amusing because the reactions were genuine. I have no idea why anyone finds it worth watching someone who knows that they're on camera proceed to (very badly) act surprised.

It could be done as actual content if you know. They edited out parts where they don't say anything and just talk slightly with the video on pause at the point they want to talk or laugh. But of course why do all that work when you could upload the entire thing all at once with absolutely 0 editing done and get more money for it.

Now the algorithm is now based on how many minutes viewers watch, rather than views (like tv, stream sites) hopefully this shit will stop.
Despite all the recent fuzz and "hate" for Fine Bros, they do it good IMO. They never show the entire clip, just the best reactions, and later ask the people questions.
With that said, I still don't like them, especially after the controversial announcement.
I really dislike when they feature animations in their shitty videos. It takes so long to animate, it's a lot of hard work put in and some asshat gets hundreds of thousands of views saying "Oh shieeeeet", "Whoa damn" and "Fuck that was funny."

Very true, I'm still not a big fan of those kinds of videos, but at least with H3H3 and idubbbz you can tell put a lot of effort into making them entertaining. They also sometimes implement skits and stuff into the videos, opposed to just recording yourself laughing or cringing.
I don't know if it's pathetic or just incredibly lazy, but the reaction videos where they record themselves watching a popular video and then reupload it with their facecam in the corner. And it's always the most ridiculous reactions, like screaming at every little jump, or falling to the floor launching at a joke.

Bonus video: my mom reacts to 'insert viral video'
JREKML is a good one tho. However its worse when non kpop fans react to kpop as a whole (which is impossible from one BTS MV and one EXO MV) and the Youtubers React To Kpop videos were bad enough (they were all extremely ignorant and racist) but then other youtubers started do it (some I even watch like Ryan Minajj and Shane Dawson) and its just some of the most obnoxious things ever. Like I thought I would like these to see what non kpop fans think but its just the most ignorant and fakest shit ever
I agree with you like if I were to show someone kpop I would give a variety of like maybe Jay Park, 2PM, SHINee, Seventeen, ASTRO, INFINITE, MONSTAX, GFRIEND etc and some classics like Mirotic, The Chaser, I Am The Best, I Got A Boy etc and even some lesser known groups like Cross Gene, TOPPDOGG, Teen Top, Boyfriend, B.A.P etc. Like I absolutely love EXO, BTS and GOT7 but it seems that is who kpop fans always suggest to non kpop fans and it gets repetitive very fast. I don't know how many people I saw suggesting to Ryan and Shane to watch Blood, Sweat and Tears but it was a shit ton. And the same with Monster or Just Right like come on there are so much MVs/songs out there!

The worst ones are the people who have no charisma, like Tyrone Magnus. Literally all this fucking guy does is film himself watching random videos. He doesn't freak out or anything. His reactions aren't fun to watch at all.
But for some reason, he has a shit-ton of subscribers.
I'd totally forgotten about those ones, but yeah they really are the worst. They don't add anything to the video other than their own bored face in the corner and it's an even more blatant excuse to reupload a popular video to cash in on the views.

The difference is you're putting a real used tampon in your mouth. But yeah it doesn't matter if it's fake cause she'll be known for putting a tampon in her mouth either way. Seems like a shit way to get noticed but I guess talentless and desperate people will try anything.

My god, you must live under a rock, my dude. That nasty bitch was EVERYWHERE on social media years back for gross stunt. Didn't do her well though, everyone made fun of her.
Giovanna Plowman. I googled her and the first thing that came up was an article about how she committed suicide, but there's also a link to her Twitter, which looks legit. Hmmm.
Went to the same HS, WSW, it always amuses me when I see her brought up somewhere. I never talked to her and all the video did was make sure I never will.
You gotta give her credit though, at least she actually did it. Nowaways youtubers would have a title "EATING A TAMPON SANDWICH (GONE SEXUAL) [YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENS!!]" and it would only be them going to the store to buy maxi pads.
I mean shit like that is fair game for views. You're not making shit sob stories up or bullshitting your way into views. There's a difference between being pathetic and just not giving a fuck..
If someone is willing to eat some gross shit and I'm willing to watch it, that seems like fair content

Watched the first bit and she says hers but I am nooooot going any further, she looks about sixteen. I think it's a lot grosser to men than women since we deal down there every month, but doing it on camera is the weird part.
Yeah it's not the used tampon going into her mouth. It's the camera that makes things weird.

Dude I won't even take selfies, so nothing. Your own tampons just aren't that gross to some women, you have to reach around there when it's all bloody to position a diva cup anyway. Like red snot.
Buddy of mine use to work for a state 'hospital' (lock up for sex offenders deemed to dangerous to the public) and one of the male 'patients' MO was to sneak into the ladies room and raid the disposable bin looking for tampons to suck on. shudder
To be honest, I don't really want to watch it again, but I just remember her sucking on it and me gagging. I think if she would have ate it, I probably would have thrown up.
Giavonna Plowman! I knew of her from my town. She did this attention stuff a lot, and when this blew up she god tons of hate and got homeschooled for a while. Not sure what she's doing now, but lets hope she learned her lesson.

Onision. The list is endless. Most recently, making multiple videos about Eugenia Cooney telling people to unsubscribe from her until she gains weight. Like ruining her career will magically cure a mental disorder she may or may not have. She is dangerously thin, but that was not the way to try and help her. It was more like he used her name for views, faking compassion, especially as he made a video making fun of anorexics.

I think it's worse, he faked compassion and good intentions in order to attack another channel. The lowest form of passive aggressive BS i know. Typical behavior most people associate with those religious but hateful people that pretend have the best heart in the world while using it to try and destroy other people's lives.
And more recently, he was making vids about some girl he was in some sort of relationship with who's only like 20 while he's in his early 30's. And he made vids on her because she smoked weed, and that broke some sort of relationship contract that he pushed on her, and she leaked text messages from him saying that if she wanted to make it up to him, she wouldn't see her family and she would let him chain her up in his basement naked or some crazy shit like that.
Yeah. She would have to be chained in his basement for three days and his response when that came out? To make a video showing how awesome his basement is and be like "psh, it's not like I'd have her chained in a dungeon guys jeez"

Eugenia is glorifying her unhealthy weight. She isn't discouraging it and isn't seeing it as a problem, thus encouraging vulnerable teens to starve themselves. I saw a comment on one of her recent videos from a little girl and Eugenia actually responded to her. The convo went like this:
Girl: "Your weight is beautiful! I'm gonna look like you one day" (100+ likes)
Eugenia responded with "Thanks:)"
I'm sorry but thats not ok. Onision is telling people to unsubscribe to her because she's affecting other people whether she realises it or not.

Onision is making fun of people with eating disorders and making light of a crippling mental disease though. is what eugenia is doing okay? no, not at all; I agree that some action should be taken because she probably does negatively affect a lot of people.
but onision just straight up fucking invalidates and mocks people with eating disorders. he's just straight up spreading misinformation and I think it's pretty fucked up.
No, Onision is telling people to unsubscribe from her because he wants attention and, more importantly, those precious views. Anorexia is not okay. Unsubscribing from a person who suffers from it is not going to fix it.
[deleted] ยท -4 points ยท Posted at 03:45:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
you could argue that Onision has made the mass majority of Eugenia videos, but don't forget that many other youtubers have made videos about her, too.
people aren't disliking the shit out of her videos because some big youtuber told them too, they're doing it because she's glorifying her weight. do you think people would be doing this if she wasn't unhealthy?
Disliking her videos and unsubscribing from her is not going to fix anything. She needs professional help. Internet mobs do not equal weeks of comprehensive therapy with an expert. And they wouldn't encourage her to get any, either. You know what's going to help? Actual fucking help and support.
I agree that a) Onision is awful, and b) she personally needs help but that's something either she or her family for her are going to have to seek in private. No one on the internet is going to be able to supply that.
But what FakeTan is saying is that in the meantime it's best to minimize her effect on other impressionable people. If she retains her level of popularity more and more susceptible people can see her weight, want to achieve it, and develop her same issue. Needs of the many.
Not defending onision but Idk why this has down votes I've seen comments like that on Eugenia's Instagram too

If you were anorexic and a little girl told you that she wanted to look like you and that your body weight was beautiful, what would you say to them?
You're either taking the piss or you just don't like Gregory, because it's obvious that Eugenia is encouraging her behaviour.

Still 0 evidence of this. If all you've got is some other dude deliberately shitting on someone, but nothing from the primary source I'm not gonna bother watching his vids.

Sure, but it doesn't take rocket science to tell the difference between an anorexic person and a healthy person. I think it's more than likely that Eugenia's been diagnosed officially but at this point it doesn't make a difference. If she went to the doctors right now and had an assessment done, we both know she'd be diagnosed with an eating disorder. Like I said, it's physically obvious.

Eugenia shows off her tiny arms and legs in every video. She obviously isn't ashamed of her body and while thats usually not a bad thing, it is in this situation. You can watch it from the 'primary source' if you'd like..

I googled her and shit, I'm probably thinner than her (180 cm, 45-50 kg.) From what I'd gathered through quick googling, she has a metabolic disorder or something? People seem so ridiculously fucking concerned, they clearly have never met me lol. And I'm a heavy eater, at least compared to the girls I know. (most of my classmates would give me their leftovers when I liked the food and during grill parties they'd stare at me filling myself with shit while they chirped away at their bird food)
Sadly, I don't happen to give a shit about most of Eugenia's videos, do I don't know whether I'll subscribe, but her commenters are fucking toxic and it would be fun to spite them with photoes of myself.

You're both underweight, but you are not nearly as low a weight as her. IIRC correctly she weighed in at 70-80 pounds recently. Possibly less.
It's possible she (and you) have hyperthyroidism or something similar. In which case I would recommend seeking treatment. Being underweight puts serious strain on your body. I'm not trying to shame you or anything, but you can seriously hurt yourself.
Zerewa ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 17:18:09 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'm significantly taller than her, though. I doubts she's much above average height, and I'm a freaking scyscraper, which makes me thinner even though I weigh more. (http://imgur.com/a/4QRTT photo showing my proportions somewhat)
Both my parents are doctors, believe me, I've had more blood tests than you can ever imagine. Only thing they ever found was Gilbert's. Shit, I had backdoor access to the local hospital and we could get it done in less than 5 minutes, so every time I felt sick they just brought me in, asked a nurse to pierce me and got the results when they returned for their next shift.
I've been like this ever since I was six months old, too. I started out as a huge ass baby, then started losing weight, and I've been like this ever since. My grandfather was stick thin, my father was stick thin, however both my grandmother and my aunt were/are fairly, umm, thick. Also, my mother looked like a scarecrow, too, and I have a cousin that's similarly thin, though not to the extent I am. I'm also relatively muscular. I'm no weight lifter or anything, but I have very high endurance in low to medium intensity activities such as walking, even in difficult environments. And no other symptoms of hyperthyroidism apply, either. So yeah, nothing has been found yet that suggests that this is anything but my regular bodily functions.

Well he turned red, then blue, then a shade I've never seen before. Then coughed and projectile vomited for a long as time. Then cut the video off to shit himself. Then cut it back on to say he was going to the hospital. So.... Not.
Almost as bad as Ted Barrus taking a bong hit of the worlds hottest pepper....and then went and reacted ridiculously.
Also Joe Rogan played the video on his podcast and the guest Brian Redban said he thought it was fake. Nothing more really. Ted responded on YouTube with one of the cringiest videos ever. Next time Redban was on they watched that response and laughed at him.

I don't know if this garners more views, but it's pretty pathetic all the same. I hate when the person making the video will just talk about nothing for the first 3 or 4 minutes of a 5 minute video, telling you to "PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE GUYS!"
For example:
Video tutorial on how to attach a file in an email
"Hey, guys! OutLookPro2001, here with Part 4 of our 9 part series on how to attach a file to an email using OutLook!"
"Before we get started, make sure you check out parts 1-3 by clicking here."
7 annotations come up blocking the entire screen
"Also make sure you like and subscribe to this channel. And if you have any other problems with Microsoft Office Suite, check out my other channels, ExcelPro2001, PowerPointPro2001, and MicrosoftWord2001."
Now 2 minutes into the 5 minute video...
"Alright guys, so in parts 1-3...annotations pop up again...we discussed turning on the computer, opening OutLook, and starting a New Email."
"So, in this part, we'll be discussing "Clicking the Paperclip".
1 minute left in video
"So what you wanna do here, is go ahead and click on the paperclip icon that says "Attach file".
"Alright, guys! That's gonna do it here for Part 4 of our 9 part series of attaching a file to an OutLook email! Make sure to like and subscribe, and I'll see you next week for Part 5: Browsing your Computer for the file. Bye!"
On top of that, tutorial videos that are clearly being done on the fly. You should at least have SOME idea of what the fuck you want to say before you start, or edit out the fucking fluff when you make a mistake or say 'hold on' while you figure it out. It's fucking youtube, not a live stream. EDIT YOUR SHIT. We don't need to sit here for 30 seconds twiddling your thumbs while you try to figure out the next step in your own damn tutorial. Especially after 4 minutes of praddling to GET to that point talking about your damn channel and other tutorials.

Then their mic is super loud or just cuts out for part of the video so they add some crap-ass annotations to cover it, rather than recording the audio separately to begin with, the way anyone who gives a shit would :P
Even better they don't have a mic, so you just see them typing out the instructions into a notepad while they think of whatever the fuck they're trying to say.
You forgot that they DO have a mic, it's in the webcam, picking up keys clacking and all the background noise including coughs and sniffles.

Not even having a mic. Having notepad open and typing at 40 wpm with constant spelling mistakes while they nervously jam on the backspace key and fuck it up all over again.
But adding audio separately would at least give them a teensy bit of credibility. People who have a whole channel filmed on nothing but a phone are just idiots.

What equipment do you use? I ask, because I'm one of your idiots.
Canon Camcorder (forget the model#) and a small samson usb condenser mic. Not sure about camera costs, but the mic is ~40 usd and a decent lapel mic can be had for ~10 usd. The key is to record the audio completely separate, then integrate later (not much work tbh).

Oh, I see what you are saying. I do often use just the phone as a quick and dirty but I will also record with a Panasonic SDR-S7 and a Tascam DR-40. I'll even use the Tascam DR-40 in conjunction with the phone. You are correct that it makes an enormous difference. I'll edit in Adobe Premiere Pro when I edit but sometimes the difference between filming a video and getting it published and filming a video to never publishing it comes down to deciding to skip the editing.
True. My problem is more when people monetize some pos video they did in 5 mins and expect people not to shit on it. There are times that quick and dirty works, but there's no excuse for the sort of person who films their computer screen with a phone or doesn't even try to get discernable audio.

And it's not like video editing just to cut out slow content is that hard. It's literally just cutting at the ends of the boring bits, deleting that bit, then smushing the rest over. I can't think of a single editing program where that is difficult to do. Doing it well with nice transitions is another matter, but shitty cuts are better than leaving in dead air time.

I really wondered what the hell was going on when that 'service' takes forever to do fairly small changes. Even worse when finishing a video and it takes a day or two to 'finish'. It's like it has to be e-mailed to at least 50 people and watched before an edit responds.

I never paid attention to this, but this is also true.
Maybe you're the guy to ask. Why do so many YouTube videos have cuts for no reason? Is this just a phenomenon with the times? If I want to make watchable YT videos do I need to add random cuts in the middle of the same shot when it's clearly the same sentence and I haven't moved?
"Uhms", repeated words, long pauses, "youknow"s etc. No reason not to edit those out most of the time, pacing is the most important part of a YouTube video.

Could be for any number of reasons; For gameplay videos I've cut out overly-long bits that didn't have anything interesting happening in either gameplay or the voice-over, or because I said something that really shouldn't be said on YouTube (at least without making the video "mature" and losing any potential for ad revenue), because of something like a coughing fit or other body sound that just isn't great for videos, or just because whoever was talking did a re-take vocally (this is kind of rare IME); I'm probably not the best person to ask, but those are at least reasons

I used when helping my little brother make a YouTube video recently, and I agree, it works great. Not the most intuitive piece of software, and it lacks a lot that expensive programs like Sony Vegas has, but it's pretty good for a free program.

Works great on Windows 10 on my machine, I mainly use Fedora but dual-boot for the occasional game I play that doesn't support Linux yet, I use Kdenlive to edit game recordings.
I'm sure they'll eventually put an installer together with FFmpeg bundled, no idea why they didn't for the test release given how well it work otherwise.
I've really been enjoying MPV. It's probably the best video player out there, because it works perfectly out of the box, even with an endless amount of customisability.
Foobar2000 is arguably the best Windows music player because of its ridiculous customisability. (On Linux, I use the ultra-minimalist cmus.)
On Android, I've found "Vanilla music" to be the most intuitive music player. Likewise on Android, Lightning browser is perhaps even better than Firefox despite its lack of addons.
hey some people just don't know that stuff. like im sure there are tons of extra software you can use besides OBS to stream on twitch that will make your stream a ton better but there really isn't any good place to find out about it unless you already know what you're looking for
Weirdly enough, shotcut is kind of shitty at editing videos. I suffered constant crashes, especially when more than one video/audio channel was involved, manipulating speed and volume was needlessly complicated and I found it just plain infuriating for anything more than "snip this small section out".

I have a real intense hatred for creative cloud, and everything moving to a cloud/SaaS model. I want to be able to do shit when I'm not connected to the internet, and to not pay a subscription fee in perpetuity to be a creative professional and that's why I stubbornly hold on to CS6.

This is only related very tangentially but my hatred burns pretty hot on that issue.

I've been using the same version of Adobe Premiere for years now (since 2008) and should probably consider upgrading to something that isn't a 9 year old video editing program. Render times are garbage on it and will always be garbage (regardless of hardware) because it can't use multiple cores to render and is 32 bit.
But yeah, I think I need something newer. I could try Resolve and see how that is. Hmmm.
I'll warn you that the editing portion of Resolve still has a long way to go, but it can get the job done. It's all primarily a color system, so I only use the editor for basic tweaks when I'm doing color.

Some youtubers purposely draw out their videos to be just a few seconds over 10 minutes. This way they can run a second ad, making twice as much $$ as they would from a 9:59 video
It's because it's on purpose. They do this because YouTube now favours "Watch time" over "Views". Before this change, short videos of a high standard were required for views, but now there's a quantity over quality approach for watch time.
I follow this YouTuber that makes videos about tattoos that are really fun and interesting, but she doesn't cut her videos at all. 30 mins on one topic, and she constantly strays from said topic into totally unrelated things. I love her content, but God I'm not interested in watching 27mins of you talking about your cat and that one time in Manchester, and 3 min about the actual topic.
Oh man; tutorials for any video/editing/motion graphics software are the best cause the creators always have a rudimentary understanding of video production; Like, they always cut out dead air and will sometimes zoom in and highlight the area/buttons they're describing. Comparatively, if I want to watch a guide for a hobby, I have to sit through have an hour of unscrewing bolts, finding tools, and needless shit.
One of my university classes is all online and taught through a series of YouTube videos made by the professor. He obviously doesn't have a script and doesn't believe in video editing. Also, it's a programming class and none of the videos are in HD which makes it nearly impossible to see the code.
This was the worst thing when I was building my PC and needed some tutorial videos. They would never have anything planned and often ramble about random parts or other computer related things. I just wanted to see if everything was connected right, not hear a history, and personal experience, on Asus motherboards or something.
Yeah. I can't do youtube tutorials on computer stuff unless I want something very specific for exactly that reason. Honestly, your best bet is checking the manual for the motherboard, it'll clearly list what connects to where. I did a lot of flipping back and forth between my chassis manual and motherboard manual setting up my current rig. So many built in features for led lights and crap that aren't totally obvious where they connect, guh.
That's weird, I always found high-quality content for the basics. Using a good camera with a proper stand to record him taking apart a generic computer on a clean white desk, with cuts for all the boring stuff. Anything specific and it's forums like stackoverflow you want, not youtube.
Yep, I watched a tutorial today on how to get photoshop (paid photoshop, if Adobe ever wanders here). And the guy was like "ok 2 minutes download, it would be a great time to watch photoshop tutorials, then you will be ready to start using it." Can't you... cut the 2 minutes?
I'm a computer tech and sometimes I'll use a tutorial on YouTube for some uncommon tasks, like screen replacement on a particular model of laptop I haven't worked with before.
What really grinds my gears is when it's recorded all in one take with no audio and the guy is fucking typing everything he should be saying into note pad! The videos are long and horrible as described in the comments above.
It bothers me so much I sometimes make tutorial videos for problems when I find a demand. I have no formal training so it takes me 5+ hours to record, edit, record audio retakes, QA, render and upload just for a 15 min video.
Here is one of my videos as a sample of the MINIMUM acceptable tutorial video quality IMO https://youtu.be/e-FaSQ3ugN0

Looks ok, but you don't say um or pause a lot. And how come there's no blaring music in the background while you talk right into the mic? Terrible tutorial.
One fucking guy was doing a tutorial on how to wrap your knuckles for kick boxing and it was 9 fucking minutes. At the beginning he says "these are boxing wraps, you can get them at any sporting store etc". Like I'm watching a tutorial on how to wrap your knuckles without the wrapping tape.

I used to record quite a lot of youtube tutorials back in the day. Very occasionally I still do.
I always made sure that I knew exactly what I was doing. I would run through tutorial at least three times. Once to work out the process, once to make sure I knew it step by step, and once to record it.
You wouldn't believe how many times I would stop and re-record a section (or the entire video) because I messed up a single step, simply because didn't want the video to be confusing.
It boils my piss when I watch a tutorial and they are clearly making it up on the fly. Especially when it's something complex. I suffered through a 20-minute video recently only for the guy to turn around and say "you know what? I've done this wrong. I don't really remember how to do this".
My big project at work this quarter is making a series of onboarding videos for one of my company's apps, and I spent about a week watching screencasts/demos/onboarding videos from our competitors and from other industries specifically to see what they fuck up and how.
The biggest thing?
tutorial videos that are clearly being done on the fly
One of our main competitors recently published a video that is ten minutes of someone talking over the fucking app's UI and occasionally clicking (and often misclicking) on various screen elements. No script. Lots of unrelated tangents. Bad, awful, terrible. My favorite part was that they recorded the audio using their laptop's shitty mic in a noisy room though.
I'm a technical writer by trade and am not great at doing anything spoken on the fly. My onboarding materials were meticulously scripted, and I'm actually storyboarding almost every sequence to make sure that it .. isn't perfect, but also isn't tedious and a waste of time to watch.

Not least because the guy's computer sounds like a jet engine buried under 15 years of dust. He also makes a mistake in his second line (his first line being "Hey guys, it's me.") and doesn't bother to restart.
Yeah, and it's especially annoying if we're sitting here having to twiddle your thumbs, as if you're too good to twiddle them yourself. Geez it's not like we don't have our own thumbs to twiddle...

And by edit you mean add a 1 minute irrelevant anime video with loud metal music playing before your tutorial starts
I don't feel like it's an authentic YouTube experience unless it involves watching a guy struggle to figure out where the damn buttons are, then watch a second YouTube video on his desktop while hemming and hawing about how he's not quite sure if the guy knows what he's talking about and then begs the viewers to subscribe before bursting into tears.
I had this idea of a series of youtube tutorial videos where it slowly becomes clear the instructor doesn't know what they're doing and is just winging it. The inspiration were videos about how to roll a cigarette. There's exactly one part that's hard in rolling a cigarette: getting the paper to 'tuck in'. So cue several videos of people with interesting taste in hats detailing why you'd want to roll a cigarette, the cost savings, how to select the paper and the tobacco, how you should hold the paper, how to roll it into a tube. And then - bam - the cigarette is rolled, with a off hand comment about tucking it in. And then a long explanation of how cool it is that you've now rolled a cigarette. Infuriating.
I'll be the first person to say this and I may be late for anyone to notice this but I was fucking impressed with this video. So here's the story.
I needed to print out, fill out, and scan something for school and Kinkos is no longer 24 hours where I live, so I just went to walmart and bought the HP Deskjet 2132 Printer for like 40 bucks. Cheap and I thought it would do the job as it has a scanner and printer and it's not large and bulky or anything.
So I am pretty fucking good at all things technology. My friends come to ME for advice.
So I set everything up, download the drivers off their website instead of using the CD as my CD-ROM is broke on my HP All in one.
I go to print shit off but it wouldn't print and said there's no paper in it and I was having a fucking TIME trying to find where the fuck to insert the paper. I know it sounds stupid right? Simple looking printer there's only one real place the paper can go logically. Well, I'm an idiot and I put the paper in the top as you'll se in the video but I forgot one fucking thing.
If you go to the tutorial video at the 5:58 mark it will talk about adjusting the paper width guide all the way to the left so the paper will fit down. That was where I fucked up. I didn't adjust the damn paper width guide and because it's somewhat clear and hard to see I didn't even notice it. Because I'm dumb and it never occurred to me.
My point is, this video is no bullshit. He goes through every single step in a clear and concise way and visually shows you and identifies everything.
It's HP's youtube, so I am more impressed because there's no ads, there's no bullshit. It's a perfect way to explain to people how to set up this cheap ass printer.
For that, I am thankful. Also, you can find ANYTHING on the internet if you google/youtube for it. Resourcing is a valued skill to have. I can't tell you how many times people ask me shit I say "Did you try youtubing or googling instructions for how to set that up?" and they say "no."
Most people understand there's a lot of idiots in the world like myself and I'm very thankful they did this for people like me.
As a side note: I also enjoy this video because of the crinkle sound when he is unpackaging the ink for the printer. Also, his touching things is some good ASMR shit.
tldr: HP youtube video showed me how to set up printer, it was dope shit.
Is what I usually hear as a response in the comments.

Lol, I once watched a tutorial video on how to use a specific package in Python. Right when the guy goes to type "import yadayadayada" he realizes he forgot what the package name is and spends the next 30 seconds or so trying things until he gets it right. Lost a lot of credibility there

I find the better ones usually open with with the person giving their credentials.
EG: "Hi, I'm Some Dudeman, and I've been teaching SuchAndSuch for this long. I work at ThatPlaceOverThere."
I kinda like videos where it's not entirely scripted. Like most of the tutorial videos I watch are on 3D software or after effects and having the YouTuber say out his though process (I could try to do this, but xxx) helps me learn a lot more too as it quickens up my learning process by letting me know why he did what he did or didn't do it. But those who are obviously incompetent? Fuck off
More often than not I follow along with the video. When they make a mistake and I inevitably make that same mistake, I wish I could take my 1 view back.

Hate that with gaming videos, people naming their first time playthrough a walkthrough.
One exception to this that I've found, is for coding videos (like PHP). Sometimes it's helpful to see someone make a mistake, realise it and then explain why his code wouldn't run because of it.
Real life coding isn't perfect first time, and it's easy to make mistakes. Even professional developers use the trial and error approach. Write the code, see if it runs, if it doesn't then use the error to fix the bit of code that went wrong.
I'd rather have that, than the videos where a guy has something that works on his second monitor and he's just copying it, pretending he's writing it for the first time to show off. I'd prefer to see a guy start with a plan, and end up roughly meeting it, but having to change/fix a bit of logic along the way. You get a way deeper understanding that way.
In my own projects, I have some that are in use and worked perfect with little to no bugs. If I get called tomorrow about something that needs fixing on it, I'm going to have to relearn it. It's the ones that needed to be fiddled with/reworked constantly that stick out for me.

I think they do that on purpose now as time watched is the new critical stat for Youtube when it determines whether to suggest your videos or not.
I just watched a video like this. In Sony Vegas he was teaching you how to make the screen shake, but he messed up the keyframes, so the video just slowly shifted around the screen. Then he fixes it by speeding up the video, which unsynced the audio and messed up the video.

Didn't help that when I went to r/cartalk to ask about how to replace the brakes on my car I just got called a dumbshit and a pussy because I didn't know how to do something I'd never done before and had no prior knowledge of how to do it and came to the subreddit to ask for help IN A HELP BASED SUBREDDIT. Go suck a dick, r/cartalk.
Yeah, the other day I watched a video tutorial of "how to integrate <cool new technology with no learning resources> with <long established technology>" and the guy literally started with "Go here to download" and then jumped straight to "to save us some time I completely set up and configured <cool new technology>"
Thanks dude. You saved me from learning.
As a bonus he fucked up the old tech too, and kept having to go back and fix it.

Went over to a friend's house in h.s. to play league of legends. His desktop computer was of a Japanese anime of a supposed "college" girl who looked like she was 12.
Also all of their fish died because they never changed the filter or the water in the tank. That's what I remember most.
Fish can be surprisingly hardy. I once moved into a new apartment to discover the previous owner had left a goldfish in a washing-up bowl, and it was still alive and well. I don't know how long it had been there but it was at least three days, since I didn't move in on day one of the lease.
My mum ended up adopting it, and it lived for a good couple of years after that.
A properly maintained goldfish has a lifespan of about 15 years.

A large part of the problem is that they are nothing more than fancy carp. Carp are one of the dirtiest fish ever, and goldfish are usually kept in a relatively small vessel (for the amount of ammonia they produce).
Which is why educating yourself about the nature of your pet is crucial. The problem isn't that they stink up the size vessel they're usually kept in, the problem is that they're usually kept in containers that are far too small for their requirements. They have the reputation of being low maintenance, low occupancy pets, which isn't true at all.

My background tends to be of the best art I can find out the game I'm currently playing. Lots of high quality official art and fan-art in background-friendly compositions and sizes.

A few years back I switched from Android to an iPhone... and to be honest I actually have no idea what the default iPhone ring tone even sounds like, because at that point I'd been keeping my phone on vibrate for so long out of habit I simply turned my phone on vibrate the moment I bought it.
In my mind now, the sound of a phone "ringing" is actually the sound of it vibrating on the table.
When I think of a ringing cell phone, my mind immediately goes to that old Nokia ringtone because that was my stepdad's for years. I used to get irrationally angry when his phone would ring during his naps.
This is one of the most interesting nuances of pop culture that ive noticed. Watching the flash and arrow etc, whenever a phone rings in that show its always on vibrate. It alwaus catches me off guard cause its so realistic
The free Windows Store app "Dynamic Theme" lets you set automatically updating Windows Spotlight or Bing Image of the Day images as your desktop background. It's pretty great.
Yes the wallpapers are great. However, as you said, they are only on the lockscreen, and that is a problem, specifically the one that gave W10 a special shout-out. If you are implementing something, do it fully, do not do a half-assed job like Microsoft did.

why you'd even want a pornographic desktop background
I used to have one, and the reason was very simple: 99% of the time it was covered with some application windows, so not visible. For the remaining 1% of the time, it was a refreshing/stimulating view.
Now that I use multiple monitors, with this or that part of the desktop visible at any time, I stick to a non-descript default background.

That's kind of funny, because I don't really like children... maybe because they look nothing like the cartoons. Closest thing are cats, which I do like quite much (not in "that" way though).
Oh. For better or worse content isn't cracked down upon nearly as hard if it's "art". Many argue that drawing a comic or picture containing a rape scenario doesn't have any actual victims. You can't just make laws based on sensibilities and what feels wrong.
Basically it has to do with a historically commercialized form of misogyny. It goes all the way back to how Japanese used to run brothels in other parts of East Asia by basically selling the tortuous treatment of enslaved women and children as a sexual "comfort" to men who were damaged by the terrors of war (with the Japanese). This was so ubiquitous and influential that these East Asian countries are actually still the main market for misogynist pornography from Japan. This stuff eventually also spawned certain forms of hentai and the images of sexualized crying schoolgirls that you may be familiar with. The part of International Otaku culture that is into those pictures and which you see in random YouTube videos is really just a tiny offshoot of this whole industry.
The dubstep intros are immediate red flags for me. I believe it was Ethan from h3h3 who once said that you know when a channel is cancerous when it has those intros.

Most videos I watch are tutorials on firearm assembly/modification, car maintenance, or home repairs. For some reason the rednecks who make these videos always have to arbitrarily get political.
"Don't you hate when you turn on your garbage disposal and it whines like a liberal?!"
No. I hate when I'm trying to fix something in my house and the guy making the video thinks he's Tomi Lahren.

So, I had a motorcycle crash a few years ago. Nasty stuff, ended up getting recorded by my friend. The camera sound was just wing noise, so I used YouTube switch sound for a music feature. They have plenty licensed tracks, and a suggestion button... That suggested Let the bodies hit the floor. It seemed appropriate for a video where fall off my bike, so I ended up going with that.
Yeah I get you. I know that youtubers need likes and subs or they won't get more views. The algorithm is tough. But at the same time the focus on the content should be #1. If they want to do a 2 second plug at the end of a video to say "hey if you liked the video please consider liking the video and subscribing to my channel." that'd be fine.
The people you're talking about are out of control and it pains me when their videos are the ones that pop up in Google results for a simple tutorial I'm looking for.

As someone once said about small businesses: "Every day when you get up you'll have two choices: 1, make my business better. 2, make money. Always choose number 1, and number 2 will happen naturally."
Except it isn't something you can set the rules for. Views, likes, comments, subscribers, and favorites all affect how you get paid. If you don't get people to interact, you your channel won't grow.
I've seen some incredible talent on Youtube that have under 100 views per video. It's so terrible but theres nothing you can do to help that. You have to grow your customer base somehow.
One of the YouTubers I watch simply says "like if you did, subscribe if you want" which takes about 2 seconds at the end of the video. If you insist on pleading for likes and subscribers, that is the correct way to do it.
Whenever a video starts with all that crap i immediately close it and look for another video. If it's a tutorial and i can't find another video about that topic, i'll just try to figure it out myself or read some manuals etc.
If i watch a good video and i like the style of the video i consider subscribing and liking myself.
Calls to action are very effective. I do agree that there is a right and a wrong way to go about it, but the engagement is a huge deal.

Annotations are honestly the worst thing YouTube ever added, from a viewer perspective at least. Nobody can shut the fuck up during their own videos and actually let you watch the content you came for instead of be prompted to navigate away from it.
mattylou ยท 72 points ยท Posted at 00:03:33 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Annotations are great if they're being used for their intended use. For example, after the video they'll have annotations that say stuff like "behind the scenes of that awesome car wreck!" Or "watch the extended cut!"
That's what most advertisers do because we just automatically assume most people aren't interested in our videos and it's considered a success when someone "clicks through", but interrupting ads with more ads is a big no no.
I'll never understand how the "put a thin border but otherwise completely transparent" annotation is of any use. I literally only see it used for "put a gaint clickable fuck you over the whole video so you'll accidentally click it and be sent elsewhere."
It's used for endcards mostly. They'll have little previews (or just the thumbnail) of other videos, with the transparent one over top so that you can see what you're about to watch before you click it.
Recently though, YouTube added a feature where you can just directly have a little video link, thumbnail and all, in your videos, so transparent annotations are falling out of favour. These new video annotations only show the thumbnail, so it reduces click bait too by not having them show you an actual clip that might not even be in the video.
I personally am fine with endcards and I think they have their use, but having a transparent annotation over everything is a horrible, cheap tactic.
Setting my Youtube account to have annotations disabled by default has made my life so much easier. Now I need to go into video settings to enable them if there is something that I REALLY want to click through, but most of the time the relevant videos will show up in suggestions on the right anyway.
The new end cards are somewhat annoying, as I haven't figured out a way to disable those yet, and some channels have no idea how to use them properly.
I only really watch videos from channels I'm subscribed to, whose videos I'm familiar with and trust. Because of that I never come into contact with annoying annotations and click bait stuff.
You can't disable end cards. The annotation setting doesn't do anything to them, and neither does having a YouTube Red subscription. That bullshit will block your video, and you don't get to decide otherwise.
You can use an AdBlock filter to block them on desktop, but on mobile you would have to downgrade your app or something.
Check out the Crash Course videos by Hank and John Green. They make great use of annotations, testing them as a convenient way to interact with the video or act as a table of contents
I like the use of annotations when it is for correcting something or when it is for giving more information.
[deleted] ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 01:33:53 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Disagree. Annotations are the second worst thing YT ever added. Now they have this stupid fucking thing where a thumbnail previewing the next video takes up 1/4 of the screen in the right hand side with like 20 seconds of relevant content left on the screen.
And then you get the rare channel that does use them well. That just means you can't watch on mobile because Google can't be arsed to support annotations in their own damn app.
An easy thing doable on a desktop browser: install the browser addon Tampermonkey (Chrome(ium)) or Greasemonkey (Firefox(based)) and then download an userscript like Youtube+ and turn of the annotations there. I'll never missed them since then.
Edit: I should really clarify what I mean exactly. So this userscript name as above I've installed gives me the choice to disable the annotations for all time and every video played on Youtube self if I select the option "Disable annotations" Relevant settings page of the user script . There was a misunderstanding from my side, so yes I did turn of the annotations before as well with the gear wheel, I just didn't do the translation (of preferences) to English in my head to know what you all ment.
I don't use a Youtube account is it still possible then to choose the Youtube preferences? I haven't seen this on the page before. So by now the userscript was the most comfortable solution for me.
As you mention it should have been clear for me what he ment, I just doesn't translated it in my head to English since I don't use the Youtube UI in english. I've done this for a while (disabling the annotations) until I installed the script I'll add a screenshot how the page of the script looks like for me. /r/userscripts is generally a relevant subreddit on the topic I brought up with my comment.

I doubt it but you can also disable annotations every video if they really annoy you.
Yeah, the (one) clou for me at this userscript is that it has a option you can enable so this happens automatically if you watch a video on Youtube directly. It doesn't work if you watch an embedded video but most of the time I switch on this videos to YT anyways.
agree, it glitched out for me for ages too... closed captions would randomly get enabled in place of annotations. That said it seems to have been behaving the last couple of months I get neither closed captions nor annotations now.
only sucky thing is SOMETIMES an Annotation is useful, like in an instructional video and they made a mistake and correct it in an annotation-- yeh don't get to see those. Fucking youtube, their annotation system is shit
gyroda ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 23:44:36 on February 14, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
They're not bad if used well, the same as damn near anything.
Annotations are bad because so many people use them gratuitously and so most viewers will set annotations disabled by default and therefore many people will miss the actually important annotations.
Remember back around the 2010 era of YouTube when everyone would place screen-filling annotations on their videos, so if you were to click on the screen to pause it, a new tab would open to their shitty website, video, or whatever else.
Smosh used to do this on all of their videos back in the day (I'm not sure if they still do) and it was very frustrating.

I hate videos that could exist as simple text instead for tutorials like that. Video game mods are pretty bad about that, rather than just giving a set of installation instructions a lot of them have started having an installation tutorial video.

I honestly can not understand why people make so many video tutorials for stuff that would be so much easier and quicker to explain in text form.
Maybe if you don't want to see a video about a given topic, you shouldn't search for it on YouTube...? Maybe try google, or bing, or any of the several other places you can search for text-based tutorials?
Every single minecraft let's play channel I watch(prestonplayz, landonmc, noboomgaming) spend a minute and a half praddling on about smashing the like button and subscribing. I'm so used to it that when I click one of their videos, I hold down the right button.
While Achievement Hunter does do this, they, thankfully, have that portion at the end of their video nowadays, so I don't have to care. A quick fifteen second intro on what the video is, if that, and then the video.
Of course, they also edit their videos so they're watchable as well, which is nice.
You've just made me feel old. I used to watch Minecraft LPs, but I've never heard of any of those channels.

If you go to your playback settings tab in youtube you can disable annotations and captions automatically
The other trick is, when you load up a youtube video that is 40% or more disliked, just exit that video and move on

This really improved my experience with YouTube over the past few months.
If anybody wants the real reason for this, its because the longer the videos are, the more money you get off monetising it as ads are more likely to show. They can make the video 1 minute long but a lot of potential monetiseable views are lost in this

Practically pure Capitalism. Not that it's the worst thing in the world, but this is what we get.
I would rather the informational/tutorial video content not be created at all than to be half-assed for the money. Actually, I think I hold that belief for pretty much everything. But it looks like the majority of the jobs that exist don't have much reason to exist, people have to do something. I feel the solution lies in finding out what that something is that everyone has access to do.

Every tutorial video has to be at least 12x longer than it takes to actually do the task. They get more sidebar time for the amount of time spent watching their videos so they hook you in as long as possible. There's a market for 30s-1m video tutorials just showing you what you need but they'll never see those videos because they aren't advertised.
I hate when the person making the video will just talk about nothing for the first 3 or 4 minutes of a 5 minute video, telling you to "PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE GUYS!"
There's a podcast I listen to where each episode is typically about 20 minutes long, followed by five full minutes of admin. I wish I was exaggerating.

Dude i was looking for a list of steps for a videogame (basicaly like 6 points on a map) and while watching this stupid video i thought how hilarious it would be if i made a video that does a speed cut with a quick view of the map and a little "right here".
Unfortunately my video would be 10 seconds long and makes 12cents while theirs is 5 or even 10 minutes long and would do a lot better. I think 10 minute videos are working the best right now on Youtube, thats why everyone is doing it.
Oh god this is so accurate. I went looking for a video for how to speed up cutting pomegranates since I vaguely remembered some good technique in a video I saw on Facebook ages ago. It was all videos like this with terrible "hacks" and tons of views.
The worst offender was titled something like "Deseed a pomegranate in 30 seconds!!!" The video was over five minutes long and the first three minutes was the guy rambling about his channels and then facts about pomogranates and vitamins he was clearly pulling out of his ass. When he finally gets to the "hack", it's just like he tries to cut it open fast and scoop things out fast, but takes over a minute anyway. I get why people are so hostile in the comments now. I hate that guy. I wanted to make multiple accounts to keep slamming him personally.

Bloody fucking hate these types of videos. Especially when trying to figure something out related to programming. I just want to know what this fucking concept means. Not learn for the next 5 mins about you wanting people to like or subscribe. Get to the fucking point.
Or the tutorial videos with names like "how to do x in 1 minute!" But the video is ten minutes long, the first minute is a crappy dubstep intro, then the next five minutes is them talking about what they're showing how to do, the next minute is them actually showing how to do it, the next two minutes is them telling everybody to like and subscribe, the final minute is the dupstep outro, which is exactly the same as the intro, and in the end, the video doesn't help a single bit.
I feel like this is every experience I have when the answer to my Google query comes to me in the form of a YouTube clip.
And why I search extensively for any possible alternative to viewing that clip.

I automatically skip ahead 20 seconds for every video I watch if they don't dive right in. So many videos are like that so it's honestly jarring when it doesn't work.
Why is there no way to have annotations disabled on videos by default? I can't remember the last time I saw an annotation that actually added value to a video.
related: don't put instructions in videos, you can't index a video. Put instructions in fucking text documents with embedded pictures/videos/illustrations as it has been done for the last 500 fucking years.

I hate it when something like an origami tutorial starts with an explanation of what origami is, the history of it, and why someone would want to do this. Absolutely any subject, they still feel the need to explain what it is any why you'd want to learn it.
Dude, I got to this video by googling "How to fold origami crane." I know what origami is, and I know why I want to fold the darn crane. Just show me how!

To go along with this, it's way too common for youtubers to spend time in the beginning of the video talking about their lives.
Yeah yeah it's fascinating that haven't been making videos lately because x, y and z, but seriously every youtuber says that shit, just show the content. If you need to get personal with the very small percentage of your subs that actually care do it at the end.
I just saw a channel of this vlogger who made several videos about his dad passing away. It starts out, hey my dad passed away, then really inappropriately upbeat intro, and then 3 minutes of him getting mcdonalds. I don't remember the channel name.
I don't play league of legends anymore but still keep up with it because I enjoy the game itself but just cannot devote the time to it.
Anyways, there are so many guides on YouTube and finding good tutorials or guides to playing a Champion at a high level can be pretty annoying. You have so many of them that either have just their face in the camera and them reading stuff off or yelling at the screen. I never understood the appeal of Sky Williams. I hear he's a nice guy and have no issues with him, but his content where he yells at the screen with quick cuts is just obnoxious. I guess it's what his audience likes though.
Or you have people that show gameplay but don't describe what they are doing are what you need to think about or do. Showing a jungler clear for example and not explaining the reasoning for the clear, or what options you gain or give up doing the clear. It's just "do this and you will win".
Anyways, there is a guy on YouTube who makes "challenger in 3 minutes" videos for mid lane champions. I'm on mobile and cannot remember his channel name or his twitch name. Anyways, so his videos are perfect. They have runes, masteries, items and a quick reason why for each (a lot of runes, mysteries, and items are binary so some tunes don't have reasons other than it's the most optimal). He then describes the lane phase and what you should be thinking and trying to do. He gives a few meta lane matchups you may run into and if you need to run different summoners. He the. Describes the mid game and power spikes, then the late game. It's brilliant, it's quick and he's has simple footage to show it. Then he shows some mechanical tips and tricks such as using flash with an ability or something. Then it's over. It was 3 minutes and you feel like you have a grasp of the champion conceptually and can practice the execution while playing.
Being as concise and clear as possible is always the most valued characteristic for tutorials and guides in my opinion.

Um, when they say at the end of the video that it's made up kind of gives it away, but besides that they are thirsty for views and have no original ideas any more.
They still could have made it all up and just said that bit about hila's parents to throw everyone off.
I don't always expect a top notch video from h3h3 because I like their content, but this one left me feeling like I had my time wasted. It's believable enough, but it was just over-exaggerated since they also said it was only for like a week. Which basically means it didn't happen.

Yes, I know... They watch a few seconds of something, talk about the original channel and video, then stop talk/joke about the few seconds they've seen, make a small sketch joking some concept then go back to another part of the video watch it for another 10 seconds stop and talk/joke about it etc.
Of a 7 minute video they might have one minute (maybe two tops) of the original video they are reacting to. And are creative enough about their content.
So yeah, reaction videos done right not the whole re upload a popular video for views on my channel thing.

At least for me personally, I stopped after his shirt challenges. His main content was stagnant, and the only reason I was really watching him was Ethan and Hila, and that got lumped into the main channel as well.
I feel like there will always be some filler content they put out, but they've definitely improved from where they were a few months ago.
I think after meeting DJ Khaled Ethan realized they're flying a little close to the sun. If they bump into Papa John they could be finished.

A quick Google search revealed that most of the dissatisfaction with him comes with the fact that he led people on to believe he was giving away upwards of a 100 iPhones or so but only ended up giving away 9 in the span of 4 months before deleting all his videos and tweets regarding the giveaway.

Sorry for spreading misinformation, I will edit my comment. By the way, I think running a shitty giveaway was better than not running it at all for his publicity, also, if those boxes in the truck really were legit, what happened to the rest of them after he only gave out 9 and closed the giveaway since in the next video he gave out newer phones IIRC.

No worries, stuff like "guy admits mistake and tries to make it right" doesn't get the attention or is as memorable as a guy fucking something up. Which he totally did
keep in mind that the "fake giveaway" in the post that giy links is him showing a bunch of iphone boxes and saying hes doing an iphone giveaway, nowhere in the actual video does he state hes giving away 1000 iphones like the reddit post claims.

I remember watching that video. The way he worded himself implied that he intended to give away literally truck full of the iPhones. In reality, most were probably just empty boxes as he gave away 9 iPhones and garnered possibly tens of thousands of new subscribers from all the RT's and shares of his video.
I watched his phone case drop tests back in the day but stopped when he became....I dunno. Tiresome? Can't put my finger on it.

They were Iphones. The truckload of "iphones" was actually just the empty promotional boxes that are just a few dollars, You can't say "I'm going to give away thousands of iphones" and expect none of your millions of subscribers to not find out you are lying. I'm not sure what he expected.

This wasn't on YouTube, it was on Facebook, but it is still relevant to the topic.
There was a story I heard about a guy who wanted to be a weather forecaster, so he made weather forecast videos on his Facebook. Apparently he wasn't getting enough views for his liking, so he started an actual forest fire and reported on it live on Facebook. He called the fire department to put it out after he lit it, and was almost immediately arrested when they got there with police.
Again, not youtube, but still a pathetic attempt to increase views.

Cold sores are caused by a herpes virus, warts are caused by a HPV virus.
While we usually only call cold sores and genital herpes "herpes", the viruses that cause chicken pox and mono are also herpes viruses. They so common that pretty much everyone carry at least one of them, most people have 4-5 herpes viruses in their body.

To add onto what /u/c1ng3d said it's an infamous quote from Prank Invasions most popular videos from where he goes to a beach and 'allegedly' makes out with moms in front of their kids using his super secret seduction techniques. It is incredibly creepy because Chris(the guy who runs the channel) straight up is mouth fucking these girls and feeling them up in public and infront of kids/babies.
Basically Chris is a scam artist who pays strippers/actresses/prostitutes to star in his videos where he quickly seduces and makes out with various girls in different professions and locations(kissing girls at the gym, kissing doctors, kissing cops, you get the idea). He panders to guys with low self confidence and guys who are bad with women and tries to sell them his 'secret' on how to pick up girls quickly when all he really does is essentially take your money and run after you fall for it.
If you want, check out his most popular videos here. It's a hoot.

See it's kind of genius because those girls must already have all those costumes.
Just wanted to say, you don't need to put 'allegedly' in quotes, as it is actually alleged. 'makes out' in quotes, would be the same as allegedly makes out without quotes.

Yup. I'm too lazy to find links but one of the girls in his kissing doctors video was proven to be a instagram model or something.
There's probably other examples of proof that was posted also, but that's just the one I remember.

She also abused her ex, a guy called Mathew Santoro (another youtuber) and when he made a video she said he should come on her channel and do a lie detector test, because he would definetly go on his abusers channel and give her massive amounts of veiws
This chick gives me such a god dam rage boner. Minus the boner as I'm dickless. I watched her videos because I knew she'd make me angry. I'd argue with her on twitter because of the dumb as shit things she'd say. One day I realized why the fuck am I doing this to myself? Why am I giving this dumb cunt any attention? Unsubbing from her content was a breath of fresh air.
I don't know about this one. I find her content legitimately entertaining. Making a provocative video fueled her YouTube career, so it was a smart move on her part as an entertainer.
Honestly, sub for sub is the worst most desperate thing you can do to boost your sub count.

I like that the core team have expanded out of video games and do a lot of board game and RPG stuff now. It's much more fund to watch them ad lib more.

Oh yeah but it's not like it matters - people you sub to, just so that they sub back, aren't going to watch your content and give a shit. You don't get money for raw sub count, it's the views which really matter so all you're doing is making desperate attempts to satisfy your ego.

Wasn't referring to Behind the Scenes channels! Sorry. I meant Sub for sub is something some small channels do off camera to artificially gain subs. I'm cool with BTS channels.
I do LPs and a lot of people will follow me on Twitter asking me to subscribe to their channel. I tell them I'll check them out and will sub if I like it. I'll also send them a link to mine asking they do the same.
Sadly, I feel like most of my subs are just people who saw that, thought I agreed to sub4sub, and subbed to mine. I have almost 200 and find it hard to break 10 views a video.
It is pretty rampant on Twitter. I get so many people asking me to do it. Or telling me to do without saying the words.

I would say there's a few exceptions to this especially epic rap battles of history. ERB is their main channel, ERB2 is the behind the scenes channel. Mainly because the BTS is managed by EpicLLOYD and ERB is mostly managed by Nice Peter.
Because it's not on air. YouTubers do plenty of stupid things in videos for views. This is something that can artificially boost their sub count not on camera, but behind the scenes. Apologies if I didnt make that clear.
What do you mean it's "not on air"? What does doing stupid things in videos have to do with it? How could a behind the scenes video "artificially boost their sub count not on camera", and what on earth does that even mean?
Let me take you back to square one to clear up any confusion.
Sub for sub is a technique some small channels use to gain subs. What this means is that they will say to you "Hey I'll subscribe to you, if you subscribe to me!" This is shitty because this doesn't help either channel. One person isn't going to watch the others content so it just artificially boosts a number that results in no views.
A lot of YouTubers will do things for views IN VIDEOS. Like clickbait thumbnails, Subscribe baiting people ("Hey if you enjoyed this video, like comment and subscribe!") and shock humor like prank videos.
Sub for sub isn't done on camera. Hence my use of the word "Behind the Scenes". Does that clear things up?
Yes, I know what sub4sub is and why it's bad. I specifically asked what behind the scenes videos have to do with this. These are two completely different things.
Behind the scenes videos are when someone makes a video about another video they made, showing you how they made that video. It has next to nothing to do with the whole sub4sub scheme that is going on.
Okay now you're just misunderstanding me completely. Forget Behind the Scenes videos. This has NOTHING to do with that. In fact, forget the word "Behind the Scenes" altogether since it's just confusing you.
Sub for sub is done off camera. That's all I meant.
Again, I apologize. It's my bad. I've since removed the wording from the original comment. I wonder if all those upvotes came from people who thought I was shit talking BTS channels....that'd be a really funny misunderstanding.
Yeah I don't know I had to scroll through some of your replies to see how people were interpreting it, seems like most people realized you were mainly talking about sub4sub though, no problem man haha.

A lot of YouTubers actually don't ask but the dev will come to them. Like when farcry primal was coming out Ubisoft want to people and paid them to play it. There probably are some people that do ask/beg for the dev to play them.
I know Funhaus has a decent amount of sponsered videos. Makes sense from a business standpoint, they average a few hundred thousand views per video and it's all the target market of people interested in video games. I really don't see the issue with it if they disclose it's a sponsered video. No different than Shaq trying to sell me Gold Bond baby powder.
They make the ad funny too. Just look at the 2 sponsored openhaus videos they just made jokes about it. That's why I love Funhaus.

The dramatic irony is so thin and bland I kinda don't understand why people still enjoy it. The shtick dates back at least 25 years, and I'd be shocked if Wayne's World was the first to do it, either. It was a nice gag a couple times; it was not funny ten thousand times.
It's not sincere, it's not really making fun of the product, it's not really anti-advertising or whatever; they focus group this shit, they know they're taking zero risks, it's all just another calculated ploy and it's really overplayed at this point.
Yeah, all of Rooster Teeth (who owns FunHaus) are good at the sponsor thing. If they're sponsored to make a short out of something, they usually go all out and try to actually make enjoyable entertainment out of it. Also, on the podcasts they usually only sponsor things they believe in, like Michael Jones actually wears MVMT watches, and literally everyone at Rooster Teeth wears MeUndies

Oh man, I mainly listen to the different RT podcasts (The titular one, Dude Soup, and Off Topic) along with How Did This Get Made
RT ad integration is miles ahead of HDTGM. Paul just isn't good at reading them naturally, and for me it hurts that they just hard cut the audio and put him reading ads in for 4-5 minutes at a time.
I like the way Tell 'em Steve Dave does ads on the podcast. They do seem to genuinely like the products their advertising but they get so frustrated at having to do the copy point and just go off script and admit the parts they have to say.
The problem is that it often isn't disclosed, which is both ethically wrong and illegal.

Paradox are another publisher that does similar stuff, sometimes before big releases they'll pay a whole load of youtubers to flyout out to Sweden and do a big multiplayer game, other times they just give said youtubers all the games + DLC before they're released so they can get videos out on or before release date.
A lot of producers are very up-forward about "Hey, this developer paid me to review their game early" (Especially The Completionist, who's consistently really cool about his content). And a lot of the time it's cool to see a game I've been waiting for in advance.
I actually rather like when they do this, as long as it's disclosed to me. LGR is a youtuber I like and one of the things he's known for is Sims reviews. EA started giving him the various packs for free to review, even if he says he doesn't like them overall.
I thought siege was really good with friends. And grow home was fun. Also I honestly thought watch dogs 2 was really good, really a drastic improvement from watch dogs 1. But I don't care about for honor, or farcry primal, or new assassin's creed, or crew, or steep (which really had like a hours of content from what I heard). I really don't know if I like or dislike Ubisoft.

Yeah, I think it was some people in Ubisoft just wanted to make something and made a prototype then Ubisoft said, "Oh shit, this is good, make a full game from it." It is supersizing because it isn't a game you would think a big company like Ubisoft to make.

Their games are fun, they're like comfort food to me. Super easily consumable, not challenging, enjoyable, but they don't really stand out.
EDIT: I take part of that back, now that I think about For Honor and Watch Dogs 2. There seems to have been a recent increase in quality.
I started off playing AC 1 on a tube TV that made it so I literally couldn't read subtitles so I had no idea what was going on. Now with AC3 I can read subtitles and the game is now boring as fuck. I was stuck on a mission and my younger brother even commented on how terrible that mission was. Not as fun of an experience compared to Shadows of Mordor which is a lot better.

Well it's bad (and also illegal) if it's not disclosed properly.
Otherwise I see no real issue with sponsored content, as long as it doesn't pose a conflict of interest in regards to the nature of the channels content (like reviewing a game you had a sponsored deal for).

Did you just copy and paste your second paragraph from another comment?
I'm pretty sure they always legally have had to, but a few more YouTubers do it now after seeing it blow up in other content creator's faces, such as Syndicate and Tmartn with their gambling site.
As long as they notify YouTube it is sponsored content when uploading their video, they are safe to upload as it may piss off the advertisers who pay to have their content featured on Youtube only to have their advertisement on a video that is essentially just promoting a product, no quality content there I guess

A lot of times game devs will send copies first to paid youtubers before sending it to traditional outlets. For example Bethesda did not send out copies of Skyrim Remastered to reviewers before release (I think they had 24 hours with it before release), but did send them to youtubers and Twitch streams.

My favorite part of his response video was when he did a side-by-side of her telling of the story, and an actual video of what really happened.
She's in her vlog crying, saying he was squeezing her and wouldn't let go. She said she was worried he had a gun or knife, that he was going to kill someone. That he was doing a thumbs up in front of the camera with an evil grin. Everything is so dramatic.
When in reality he simply rested his hand on her shoulder to take the picture, and easily let go once she moved away. And looking at all of her other videos, they are clearly exaggerated to ridiculous levels as well.
For an 18 year old girl, she apparently has a pretty wild life. But as he said, she is an archetype of the basic bitch.

And all she had to do was call him out and say "that wasn't funny" and not make a big deal out of it, then iDubbz would have nothing to work with.
Instead she did exactly what iDubbz expected and outed herself as the liar she is. Hell some of her fans told her not to fuck with iDubbz and she did anyway.

1 million views per video is still much more than most of YouTube

I do agree, that is a lot. However, Leafy still makes a decent amount of money from his videos.
The fact is, he did this with Leafy too. He played him right into his hands, and wrecked him even more because lots of dumb people are easily predictable.
It's clear from idubbbz videos that he's of at least above average intelligence but the way he psychologically profiles and baits people into doing EXACTLY what they need to do to look like the biggest idiot in retrospect is nothing short of savantry. The way he breaks down keemstars sociopathy and then watching him respond in exactly the ways he described in the initial video after watching that exact video are fucking uncanny. Same thing with leafy; leafy should've had the common sense to take the piss and run with it but instead he was thin-skinned and let it get to him exactly like idubbbz fucking said he would and it was masterful.
All combined I'm not convinced idubbbz instead either in possession of some sort of "Groundhog Day-esque" time travel machine or a closet psychological genius. I'm not even being hyperbolic his track record earnestly earns him an impromptu spot in Mensa.
He's got the balls to back it up (challenging Jinx to a fight, him accepting, setting it up and showing up) and the self-confidence to shut people down (like when he shaved his forehead to disarm Leafy).
basically, people are making him out to be some sort of genius by picking on pretty run of the mill insecure people (keep in mind, Youtube is basically designed for the insecure)
My girlfriend showed me a few of her videos a while ago, and I was pretty skeptical. One video, she claimed that they were pulled over with an entire car full of drugs (she said the floor of the car was covered in weed. Exaggeration much?), they were all high, speeding, and the cop let them go. She also has a huge amount of nonsensical videos about her "stalker" that are just dumb.
Yeah she strikes me as the kind of girl who accuses people of raping/abusing her when nothing happened. She totally made it look like he was aggressively grabbing her and hurting her when in reality he gently had his hand on her arm. She easily got away and he didn't even say or do anything else besides that.

To be fair, 1. she's just stupid and 2. She was right to say that he came off REALLY CREEPY in that video. Look at his grin when he takes the photo. If I saw a guy on the street with that grin, I'd be scared as dicks.
It's not surprising she got creeped out or caught off guard by someone she initially mistook for another fan of hers. But what she could've done is called it out as what it was instead of exaggerating the whole thing.
Agh some months ago I was watching some videos and the playlist got to her "kidnapped by uber driver" video. I had never hated a video so much. She even included parts of the ride she filmed where she said something like "omg we are being kidnapped". I don't think you'd get a chance of doing that if you were being kidnapped and even if you did, why not filming the freaking driver instead of looking for the best angle to show your boobs?

I don't know how often viewers look at the description but a lot of her uber stories actually did have a promo code "LINKED IN THE DESCRIPTION BELOW SO YOU CAN GO CHECK THAT OUT" -every youtuber ever. I really don't care about promos, if a youtuber wants to be sponsored, then go right ahead. The thing is, she fucking lied about this, and for a couple videos she managed to slip in retarded shit like "I don't wanna be sponsored because I don't care about the money." Bull fucking shit tana mongoose.
Or the one where she says her stalker broke into her house and her "evidence" is that she came home and the blinds were angled a different way (she lived with her mom iirc) and that the blanket over her dog's crate had fallen off. Literally nothing about actually seeing her "stalker" or any strange person in her house.

Any over exaggeration of a story at someone else's expense I find pretty pathetic.. I don't know why her channel is so popular as all of her "stories" are blown out of proportion.
I mean it's entertaining. I used to be a huge Tana fan because she was funny, I knew nothing was real but it was still hilarious. Then she all of a sudden tried to be "real" and "positive" and she turned into a hypocrite. Her thing was that she complained in over the top ways, and then all of a sudden it's too negative for her and she needs to preach. I fucking hate it.
Not sure why she explained what happened so wrong, she would have had a legit point and made a good comentary video, instead she just looks like an idiot.

Yeah idubbbz made a great point about that. He said she could've made a video just saying the joke was in bad taste and inappropriate, condemning his use of the word in public and painting him as a weirdo. Boom, destroyed. But nope, she didn't because she's predictable.
She'd have looked better if she just said it wasn't funny, or just ignored it completely and let him go to all that effort for no real payoff. Luckily for us, Tana was always going to react dramatically and we got some entertainment out of it.
She literally saw him with a camera recording it and STILL LIED ABOUT IT
Like of COURSE this guy is gonna put it on YouTube the second you try to lie about it
Tana: female YouTube who tells these crazy stories that are way over exaggerated and has a couple million subscribers because of it. Preaches positivity and is possibly one of the most negative youtubers out there. Tries to destroy people's reputations as soon as they even look at her the wrong way. Has clickbait-y titles. Recently made a video called "the n word" where she cried for 25 minutes crocodile tears and exaggerated the story of Idubbbz meeting her and taking a picture with her and he said "sayyyy nigger" instead of say cheese.
Idubbbz: make Youtuber known to make "Content Cop" videos where he exposes youtubers for their bullshit and this typically leads to them losing a lot of subscribers because their subscribers see how messed up the YouTuber really is (I.e. Tana saying she's gonna make an apology video like 2 weeks ago and still hasn't and went to a rave instead, but posting on twitter acting like she was so sad and doesn't wanna live anymore and shit, which further indicated that everything she says is a lie and that she doesn't care about her followers or she would've stopped making excuses and made her apology video---ALSO she said IN the 25 minute video she doesn't care about any backlash the video gets. Very clearly lying.)
She did this entire live feed about how bad her assistant was and her assistant went through all of their texts pretty much calling her out for being a liar. Tana has been outed as just being a straight over dramatic bitch lately. hahahah
It's on her assistants channel! She made a channel just to get the heat of herself because she was being harassed so much. She streams the video of Tana during. I got sucked into this huge 'Tana's a giant bitch party' the day idubbbz came out with content cop.
Im happy her numbers are going down and im even happier I haven't seen her reply, because he clearly caught her exaggerating the story since he filmed the whole thing.

as someone who doesn't really watch idubzzz, am I the only one that found what he did kinda weird? Like you can call out tana without the whole "say nigger" business. I dunno, just felt kinda weird and a tad cringey to me. Does he usually do this kind of stuff?
He does all sorts of stuff but his content cops are usually done for a reason, for example Keemstar. With the Tana video that's the first instance that I have seen him do something like that. I am not defending him or praising what he did but I think that the point of doing this was to prove the hypocrisy of her videos and how she always exaggerates things.
Although I do agree that it was a bit weird, I did find it quite funny given the context of the video and idubbbz's style.
He explicitly says in his video that she was so predictable and self absorbed that no matter what he did, she would make it about her and over exaggerate/lie.
So he decides to go to her event, say the n-word in bad taste, and she now has the upper hand. She can totally rib him for that, but instead she decides to lie and say he tried to kill her, he was holding her hostage, had weapons etc.
So he basically lost a battle to win the war. If he didn't go to her event and she didn't lie about what happened, this drama would still be going on.
Literally brings up a recently dead youtuber that was very loved in order to try to invoke emotion and manipulate her viewers into seeing her as a victim as always
Going to someones public event makes you a creep now. Lol

He was absolutely being a creep.
I barely know iDubbz (The only video I ever watched before was the leafy Content Cop and I thought it was pretty good) and I didn't know this Tana girl at all.
I watched most of the Content Cop video and I just didn't get how people were on his side. Like, iDubbbz clearly made that video to make himself look good, but he didn't convince me. Do I think that this Tana girl (or whatever she's called) is innocent and completely on the right side? No. But iDubbbz was acting super inappropriately. Saying "nigger" a bunch of times is just racist, no matter how you spin it, even if it's done ironically. He's a white guy saying nigger for fun to a bunch of other white guys who are watching his videos - he's pretty much normalizing racism with that, although to give him the benefit of doubt, I don't think he realizes this. He probably doesn't get that words have power too.
Not to mention the whole stalker thing. He is an adult. How many adults do you know that stalk girls, slander them in their vidoes, and literally drive miles and miles to go to an event just to intimidate and ridicule them in public? Just to prove some sort of point? It's pathetic if you ask me.

I agree to an extent. I'm an idubbbz fan but it just came off as petty since Tana is an absolute GOLDMINE of bad decisions. He could have criticized her for faking her stalker story, he could have addressed the implications of basically telling all your young female fans that you can be rich and famous if you lie and play the victim card all the time, but instead he just made a basic "you're giving the word power by choosing to be offended!" argument since saying "nigger" is the only thing she criticized him for.
Yeah, and I also think it's a shame that iDubbbz chose to go in that direction because I feel like the guy could do so much better. When I watched his videos, it was clear that the guy has a good sense of humor. He has great comedic timing, he knows how to form an argument and his videos have really good production value.
And I assume that he actually has a lot of videos that are really good.
But in that Tana video he just chose to use his talent to be really immature IMO. Why pander to teenagers by saying edgy slurs and making fun of some chick in a really creepy way instead of making... good content?

But yet for some reason, which I haven't heard or seen anything from either side about this, idubzzz thought it was appropriate to do at a place where he knew there would be tons of kids. What he did was not okay and not appropriate. Idubzzz is and always will be a loser for that. No matter how much tana blew it out of proportion, which was a little but not as crazy as she made it. Because it's been well documented that she did legit have a stalker at one point. Idubzzz is a little fucking pathetic loser who thinks it's okay to say the n word at a children's event. So he can literally go fuck the space between his mattresses like he probably does every night.

Also to add to that, after Christina grimmie (spelling?) a lot of youtubers were pretty spooked and scared for their safety so him acting like that is definite reason to be scared for herself and the young kids that go to her shows.
I don't mine the videos of people trying something genuinely that isn't available to them all the time. I saw a video of Korean girls trying American Style BBQ and it was actually interesting what they had to say about why they like it.

I don't have a link to the gif reposts that always come up. There are like 2 or 3 that do though. The comment at 1:16 and lots of reposts of them enjoying the violence of the game.
It started with old people and young kids like less than 6. That made sense, because they are people with really crazy perspectives of the world. Some basic 16 year old will just say exactly what I am expecting them to say.
As someone who was born in '95, I have absolutely no interest in watching Teens React because these are all opinions and perspectives I'm already familiar with because I know people from this generation. Why would I want to hear someone not much younger than me talk about the new MCU trailer?
Maybe older people are curious on how the newer generation is turning out. There's some good videos of teens reacting to older music, or vintage game consoles, and things like that.

Honestly, i doubt any of the kids who are on kids react or teens react are ever surprised by the stuff they're told to react to. I grew up with youtube, and so did these kids, so at this point, they should probably have pretty extensive knowledge of pop-culture, especially the 80's. I mean, seriously, unless these kids have spent their whole lives watching braindead story-time videos(which I doubt because they hang out with big youtubersk), there's almost no way for them to be surprised by the sight of a Walk-man.

The recent video of north koreans trying US BBQ was pretty tremendous. Excellent production quality, they put effort into it, and they mixed their reactions with great discussions of life in North Korea, how they are treated by S Koreans, etc.

If you spend a lot of time doing anything it can quickly be classified as a "hobby"
whether it's collecting rare quarters, to recording stupid youtube videos you know people will never watch (one of my hobbies I suppose), to playing a certain video game in a certain play style. Pretty much anything can be a hobby.
I've only made one so far, a terrible let's play of Kona. I guess I could submit it to their dead sub. I wasn't sure if I should post it (or if I should create a new reddit user for my channel).

never hurts to make a fresh account
but I'm sure there are appropriate subs for LetsPlays that go beyond just the game you're playing.
Not sure if your goal is to get your channel up and running, or just to share your passion for the game.
It was a blind run through. I just like survival games and found that a few of my friends always pinged me to broadcast on Steam while I was playing, so I figured I'd just start a channel.

Same here, like 90%+ of all react videos is just overdone fake reactions, this is the only type of reaction videos I can stomach https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0TYCEXmi90, people genuinely trying something for the first time, but these type of videos are a minority in youtube, most of them are just "look how I pretend to be surprised while watching this trailer".
The original "x reacts" were pretty interesting. Such as kids react to the original game boy. It's an interesting perspective on how current generations view stuff that ppl my age grew up on. Besides making you feel old, it's an insight at how fast technology has progressed in the last couple decades. I never take any YouTube comments seriously, they're all shit so what really do you expect?
I wouldn't mind so much if the reactions were more genuine. Most of the time, the reactions are spoon-fed to the people on camera, or, assuming they did pull random people off the street, cherrypicked to push a story that viewers will outrage over (like you said, "kids today are so dumb!").
If you were to pull a room of 100 kids together, someone would know what an NES was, and have a positive reaction to it, but instead the people behind the camera want us to get upset because "no one likes our childhoods" anymore.
Oh boy be careful the fine bros don't find this comment they might react badly and Sue you #reactworld

There was one that was like "little kids react to really old computers" and it was, exactly as the title said, children reacting to old computers (like the big, beige 80s ones.) The kids couldn't find the on switch because it was on the bottom in the back, then they couldn't figure out how to add 2+2 because you had to type "PRINT" beforehand. Some were talking abou how the screen only had 2 colors, green and black. I mean, they ere 5-6ish and how would they be expected to know how to use computers from 30 years before they were born? But of course, everyone in the comments talking about how kids today are stupid and too used to technology.
As a (young)teen who has watched some of the "Teens react" videos, are they (the teens) stupid? Like, never having seen a computer with an OS that lacks a GUI or never having played classic games like Tetris and Pac Man. Fuck, I have played the original version on a Elektronika 60 emulator.
People just want their interests validated by attractive people. They want some charismatic black guy to tell them that their favorite anime is cool. It makes them feel good about themselves.
I liked watching teens react to old technology because it shows kind of how far we've come and as a result, generation gaps are getting wider and faster. The problem with "TEENS REACT" is when it's something that's already bullshit like TEENS REACT TO BATMAN TRAILER.
I thought react videos were cool, once. But when FineBros does a react video with "College Kids" (Their "Teens" kids renamed because they couldn't bother to find new ones) and your favorite band, the cringe is real.
Some of the ones from countries such as Japan, Korea and China are interesting considering how little common interaction we have with their populations.
HERO, a Terraria YouTuber, was one of a few people who got early access to the 1.3 update. This was supposed to be the last update the main developer worked on, so it was kind of a big deal.
First few minutes of the video, starts complaining about "sound issues." Spends 10 minutes "fixing" until watcher count hits 10,000. Then spends the rest of the video ranting, not even reaching the new gear, just jumping up and down on a platform while he spouts shit about the game, his community, and the developers.

Nope, he's alive and well; his fan base is mostly comprised of children who don't really understand how ad revenue works.
He did a lot of shady stuff too, such as adding an item in his wiki (which is a whole level of advertising bullshit in itself) which was "only available if you subbed to him".
Man, what a douche.
I would rather have watched Yrimir, even without talking.
At 1 minute: "No my girlfriend didn't leave me I have a humungous dick and I'm good looking and I make decent money, of course she didn't fucking leave me"
Man, I forgot all about HERO. I started watching his videos when I started playing Terraria. I was super stoked when I found out he had early access to the last update then sat through that mess of a stream. Omg.
Not a fan of her at all, and she obviously didn't speak in a responsible way in that video, but she didn't "literally" say that. She mentioned how she "didn't want to kill people" even with all the frustration she showed because of the portion of people who actually are informed on these issues yet not taking responsibility for their actions that cause them.
I should add that when she criticizes people's diets, it always, ALWAYS 1) girls, and 2) girls who look better than her. She is insecure about herself, she is insecure about her looks and her age. There is absolutely nothing monumental about her body "achievements" other than, well... Being thin. She has no muscle on her.
Notice that none of those diets that she criticizes is a guy, or an ugly girl, or someone her she or older. It just proves how insecure she is.
Have you seen her workout videos? I would have crushed her, back when I still carried an excess of 50 pounds. I was curling 25 in each arm, I was doing pull-ups, I was doing barbell squats. Was I fat? Yes. are there girls who lifted/still lift more than me? Of course. But I had muscle, and worked hard for it. Freelee's workouts, oh my god how stupid was that? She had no strength! she calls that an achievement? You have people who start their first day in the gym who can do 10 times what she was doing, she could hardly lift 10 pounds over her head. Being skinny is not something people go for when they're really going after true health and good form but that's the message she has sent for years
What she thinks is muscle, is actually the tendons popping out from her arms.
Especially that girl that sued her a year or so again, what was her name again? Anyway, that girl is actually fit. She looks healthy, she has great form, and she has muscle - she's strong! And freelee criticized the shit out of her, even lost a court case over it, because she's jealous.
Oh I think you're talking about Kayla Itsines, the one who sued her. She's fit as fuck but she's also had some legal trouble, mostly regarding that food guide/meal plan whatever that if you followed her workout plan and meal plan together it basically had you doing some crazy HIIT workouts on only like 1200 cals a day, which is so not enough for someone that active.
But yeah, Freelee is insane. Any legitimate points she has about veganism get lots in the crazy.
I agree, 1200 cals is a stupid low number for being an active person
But, I have a feeling that it's not that accurate anyway. Unless you use a food scale for every food you eat (most do not, Kayla probably doesn't either) then your calorie count is going to be wayyyy off. She, and most of the people following her advice, are likely eating more like 1500-1600 a day when they think it's 1200
To me, freelee got in trouble and lost in court, all because she was jealous of Kayla Itsines.
She tried to pretend like she was being "silenced," she tried to make it out like the court didn't like veganism and that they were siding with her for eating meat, but in reality, she slandered people on the internet, and you can't do that. And it was all in the name of being jealous of a younger, more attractive woman, with a successful business.

Freelee has started using those really awful clickbait titles lately. There was one about her porn addiction then another suggesting she had a miscarriage when she hadn't. She doesn't even mention veganism anymore just attention seeking crap about how she had a boob job.
I think she mentioned in a video she's slowing down on the vegan stuff to "expand". I don't blame her. If videos about porn addiction get her views, I can see why she does it. I use to watch that crap but since Reddit pushed h3h3 in my face so fucking much it's hard now to watch videos that are such low quality in comparison.

Sure, it's lots of reasons. I was on and off vegetarian and for years for ethical (animal rights) reasons and knew that one day I would eventually go down that route, but had never set a timeline for that. I was also always interested in vegan cooking and often would just cook vegan for myself at home since it always ended up being cheaper to do so, also creatively I just enjoyed vegan cooking better. Beyond that, I feel strongly that it is much better for the environment to eat plant based since so much water, grain and pollution goes into or comes from meat production. The final and probably the reason that tipped the scales so I would go vegan was finding out my mom had diabetes. For context, I am overweight and have been for years. I've always had trouble with binge eating and overeating, even though I lead an active lifestyle I always found it hard to eat well consistently. My parents are both obese and on my mom's side of the family they all are as well. Her parents are also diabetic. My mom is just generally a crazy unhealthy person at 50, needed a double knee replacement soon, and I never wanted to get to that point. So I decided to finally become vegan since I knew I ate way better when I did eat vegan. I started last summer and feel amazing. At first I definitely struggled to eat well, but over time it's gotten easier and easier to eat well, and now I'm growing to love healthy plant based eating more everyday. I've started to lose weight and tone up a bit, but I still have a ways to go. It's only been 7 months now but I'm excited at where I'm headed. Veganism is a lifestyle that suits what I want to achieve and what I believe in, and since I think that money talks, I'd rather put my money towards a diet that makes me feel good inside and out.

I don't mind the occasional video game console crash test video. It can be fun to see what console can take the most abuse. Also cross comparing videos to see if there is a common set of results. (The GameCube is one seriously tough machine.)
However, videos where you have idiots who wait hours in line at a product launch. Just for them to rip it out of the box outside the store and repeatedly throw the thing on the ground/sidewalk/parking lot just because they can. Those videos kinda tick me off since there was likely someone who really wanted one and wasn't able to get one. Yet there is this person trashing one for no other reason than because they can, and the views of course. It's even likely they will make back what they spent in just the ad revenue on the video alone.

I saw one video (don't remember the name of the channel) where 3 guys put a few large chunks of dry ice into a pool, and they threw a brand new (fresh out the box) PS4/Uncharted 4 bundle into the pool. It's like, why ruin a perfectly good $350 gaming system by tossing it into a pool? Just do a giveaway for fucks sake. There are tons of people who can't afford PS4s and would love to have one, and here these assholes are, just throwing it into a pool for views. It made me incredibly angry at the stupidity and pointlessness of it all.
Pretty much exaggerating or lying about everything. They might step into a puddle. Next thing you see a notification with the heading I almost drowned and died.

Having a ton of muscle or fat makes it more difficult for your stomach to expand and hold more food. Skinny people don't have that level of resistance and so their stomachs can expand into the great beyond.

I hate the ones where they're obviously teenagers or pre-teens who don't want to be involved and/or are embarrassed by whatever stupid thing is on the video. It's okay if you post a video of your cute kids, say, in a plane for the first time looking at the sky, or your son's first home run in baseball, or whatever. But don't endlessly churn out videos where the kids are always there or where you do cruel/embarrassing shit to them. I can guarantee you that even if your 5-year-old daughter likes poop jokes and seeing herself on the Internet now, she's not going to be happy when she's 16 that you posted a video of her looking at her poop and commentating on it.
I haven't really come across any Canadian vloggers. But there are dozens in the US that have brand new, trendy homes that easily cost $800k+. Same in the U.K.

The Marina Joyce incident.
When fans pulled a ridiculous conspiracy theory out of their asses by overthinking things (believing her to be in ISIS custody, being forced to make videos) and were clearly comcerned for her safety, instead of dispelling those concerns or at the very least ignoring them she decided to go along with it and post sketchy shit so she could ride the story for extra publicity.
A fan had managed to figure out a sneaky way of asking her if she was okay on twitter without any hypothetical captors noticing. They posted a tweet and asked her to 'like' it (or whatever the twitter equivalent is) if she was in danger. She 'liked' it.
She posted a very dodgy looking tweet telling people to come meet her at a specific location at some strange but specific time and to bring as many of their friends as possible. Obviously knowing that it would look like a terrorist attack with all the drama going on.
She also posted a video of herself hiding in a bush at night whispering things to the camera like "they're coming for me" and "I think they've found me".
After she gained all the publicity she wanted, she swiftly ended the conspiracy by basically saying "I'm okay guys, what are you all so worried about? lol"
Pretty scummy in my opinion and I'm glad her channel's losing subs now.
Luke Cutforth made a video on her. Apparently, she lives with her mom and has severe mental problems
Arstulex ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 18:21:24 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Maybe she does, but what she did was pretty damn well calculated for somebody with mental problems.
People came to the far-fetched conclusion that she was kidnapped based on extremely minor, subtle and sometimes flawed details (a jingling sound being heard that people decided were chains on her foot, despite there being numerous other explanations like jewelry. People mistaking standard window blinds for metal bars on her windows).
It was only until after everyone had latched on to this conspiracy theory that she started to actually do strange things.
It was quite obviously a publicity stunt to garner attention, despite any possible mental illnesses or drug addictions she might have.
I respectfully disagree. If you watch her older videos, she was behaving strangely well before the controversy started, and she used to have roommates before moving back in with her mom, probably due to her illness. I worked with schizophrenic and psychotic patients during college (I'm a psych major) and these and many other conditions do not affect their intellectual capabilities. She probably put hints in her gideos because she genuinely believed she was being persecuted.
Arstulex ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 03:24:34 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
She acted strangely, sure, hence the conspiracy theory in the first place. But not as outrageously strange as recording videos of herself hiding in a bush at night and saying "Don't come here, it's a set up!" after having just announced a 'fan meetup' on twitter in the middle of the night.
Her regular strangeness (for whatever ever reason that may be) attracted the attention of theorists who over-analysed things and she took the opportunity to ride the story for some publicity.
One would think this would be a somewhat regular occurrence if it were due to some type of mental illness, as opposed to a one-off thing.
One could also easily argue that the drug abuse/mental illness explanation only exists because it's much easier (and much more likely to be forgiven by fans) to say "sorry guys, I've been suffering from problems with X or Y" than it is to admit you pulled a publicity stunt for attention and things went too far.
Obviously there's no solid evidence either way, but from what I can see it looks like a publicity stunt that went further than she was expecting. Not exactly an uncommon belief either, and it shows in the decrease in her viewership ever since.
I can understand why one would think that - it makes sense. However, people suffering from those illnesses will often have breakdowns from time to time. Also, it was another youtuber that discusses her illness, one that is not even close friends with her, so I am tempted to believe it was one of the crisis rather than a publicity stunt.

I'd knew she'd get a mention, I am a committed member of rope gang, I'm not gonna defend her but I will say she isn't the first to do this. What about that "nudes at 1 mil girl" (don't know her name) then released some fucking soft core porn bullshit. I think it's more admirable that Lena seems committed to actually doing it and not bullshitting her way through it like others. #ropegang

How to update your iPhone, a tutorial by (youtuber!)
obnoxious dubstep plays for 30 seconds
Logo flashes onscreen
Repeat 7 times for every different sponsor they have
Hi guys! Thanks for watching this vid-
advertisement because he's stretched it out long enough to make it to 10-min mark
-eo! What you want to do is go to Settings and click Update. Make sure to sponsor Audible, Cruncyroll and the 5 other companies I get revenue from! Thaaaaanks, bye-bye!
Four minute long outdo with obnoxious dubstep and graphics made in iMovie
These probably aren't popular these days since nobody falls for them anymore but videos claiming to be a full length Hollywood movie but turn out to just be a two hour still image of a studio logo or thumbnail from the movie with a link in the description to a malware-infested site which wants you to take a survey to watch the REAL movie.
It's certainly not the worst thing a YouTuber has done (especially in comparison to a lot of the examples in this thread), but I always think of that time a few years ago when Ingrid Nilsen made a "embrace your imperfections" video that turned into a video promoting plastic surgery (sponsored by an actual plastic surgeon at that), knowing her audience were teenage girls.
She seems to have matured since then (especially since coming out) and I assume she wouldn't make a video like that now, but I always think of it every time I see her.

Honestly, it creeps me out how so many makeup and beauty YouTubers shill for plastic surgery when their audiences are largely young girls. They're all like "Well, I just felt like getting lip fillers because for me they just make me feel prettier :)" Okay, but like... why do they make you feel prettier...? Do they not want to even think about that concept for even a minute? So many of them talk about loving yourself and accepting yourself and then get all kinds of surgeries like it's no big deal and idk, it's just a bit icky to me how they tend to act like it's comparable to painting your nails.
Presenting it under the guise of self-acceptance really did it for me. I remember being so shocked to find out she wasn't a teenager, but in fact a grown woman.
I couldn't watch it. I skipped through it but knowing it was a fucking advertisement made me mad. That preachy love yourself YouTube video is made directly for preteens. At this point though I think she might be dumb enough to believe her own words. She was getting money but wrapped it up in a pretty little self confidence box and that made it okay.

I hate youtubers who ask people to like and subscribe before the fucking video starts. Thats like asking a chef to rate your dish 10/10 before they've even tried it.
And don't even get me started on the obnoxious ass youtubers who repeat themselves so many times to add minutes onto the video. Faze Rug for example;
"Hey guys so today we're going to go snowboarding and I wanted to do this because I saw it on Twitter. Speaking of, you can follow my social medias in the description and make sure you subscribe. So yeah, since I saw it on Twitter, I'm gonna go snowboarding. I haven't snowboarded before so I'm really excited that I'm going to start snowboarding. I'm going to snowboard because I saw it online and you guys really wanted me to go snowboarding so I'm going to go snowboarding."

Extremely fake prank videos. There's this one especially cancerous guy named PrankInvasion who basically "pranks" a bunch of random girls on the street to make out with him (luckily however all the girls are extremely conventionally attractive and let him grab their asses!! Totally legitimate!!). That's bad enough but what also really irks me is that he reckons he's so good-looking and desirable that women WANT to make out with him. Honestly he's like a 4/10 in the looks department in my opinion. Not sure why I picked him out in particular in a sea of terrible "pranksters" on YouTube but anyways.
There's a slew of trash-quality content on YouTube what with the clickbait culture that exists there and the fact that ANYONE can upload. I'd say literally 99% of the videos on YouTube is just random crap and 1% is stuff actually made by quality content creators.

I can chime in a terrible experience:
My 2 year old is fanatic about Peppa Pig.
Mean youtubers upload random Peppa episodes, but they create a fake thumbnail showing something fantastic that never happened in any episode at all (new characters, costumes, elements, things like this)
My daughter proceeds to get desperate wanting that exact episode that is on the thumbnail... which does not exist.
And I become the world's worst father for not playing back the damn episode for her.
hah, I have a 4 year old who is into Peppa Pig also, I set one of those hour or so long youtube vids playing and we'll play with her Peppa Pig playset and then, like, at the end of the video, there's some person playing with Peppa Pig toys acting out a story and the weirdness of it confuses the shit out of me. But she asked to watch it so I'm like whatever you want, dear.
Whats worse is there seems to be some random person recreating peppa pig episodes with toys.
My boy watches this stuff in the car, so i cant exactly turn around and sort it out for him, which means he has (several times) had to sit and watch that shit.

He's both incredibly smart and incredibly stupid. I love him and he's one of my favorite youtubers.
I agree, but for different reasons. I find them annoying because they make their sexuality their identity and ALL of their content becomes based on it. Gets old really fast.
He's a comedian a lot of his material is based off his life experience and insecurities, this is pretty common practice. Gabriel Iglesias and Jim Gaffigan do a lot of material based off being fat, it really isn't that big of a deal.
and those 2 comedians also get shit for just talking about themselves constantly as well. also that one chubby blonde chick that reddit seems to hate, forget her name atm. but shes popular on comedy central.
Yeah I understand not liking that style, but it is seems ridiculously judgmental to call it pathetic. Artistic inspiration comes from within, calling someone's artโthat they worked at and honestly managed to make a living withโpathetic is such a shitty thing to say.
People who steal others ideas without changing them significantly sure. Gabriel Iglesias managing to provide for his family by having good enough delivery and content to be a professional comedian? You don't have to like his jokes, but he doesn't deserve to be called pathetic.

It amazes me how simply being gay is some people's identity in the same way that most people identify themselves by their favorite hobby.
For example, folks that play a lot of video games may identify themselves as "gamers." People who run a lot may identify themselves as "runners."
Yet, straight people do not identify themselves as "straight." But tons of gay people will be sure to let you know they're gay and don't worry, you'll never forget, because it's all they'll talk about.

Yeah this all pretty much hits the nail on the head for me. Sexuality (and gender as well) are important and influential parts of all of us. But when it's the ONLY thing you talk about it's fucking annoying. I don't want to hear how many girls your fucked. I don't want to hear the phrase "as a gay man" preceding every sentence, I don't want to always hear about why as a transgender person you're persecuted and everyone hates you.
No. Maybe if you weren't always bringing it up (any of the above) people would be more inclined to like you and talk to you. And before I get hate for this, literally half of my family is gay or part of the LGBTQ community. I love them all and in no way do I find their gender or sexuality a problem. It's when people make it the sole pillar of their life it just becomes obnoxious. Akin to "can I teach you about my lord and savior?" Coming up every other breath.
People are multifaceted and complex individuals, and putting them in this tiny box whether by their own means or others is wrong for everyone.
By this decree every time a straight person tries to talk to me about their relationship or I see a straight couple on TV I'm going to say "we get it, you're straight! Stop making it your entire identity!"
Seriously, LGBT people spend years in the closet and it's isolating and scary. Give them a break and let them talk about it freely.
Ginnipe ยท 15 points ยท Posted at 00:47:12 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think you're just misunderstanding my intent. I have no issue all with people talking about their relationships and I very much encourage people who feel that they are locked in their internal closet to just be more open and accept who they are.
The line gets crossed somewhere though where it can sometimes become what appears to be the sole pillar of their existence. As I stated above, I don't want to hear how many girls some dude slept with all the time. But we all know a guy that does this and it's infuriating. But sometimes people think that just because they are part of the LGBTQ community they have a pass on that and just solely talk about their sexuality or gender. It's obnoxious no matter your sexuality or gender. I understand that part of that helps them accept who they are, and I'm fine with that. It's just that sometimes that obnoxious line gets crossed and it because insufferable.
I think we can give people who just came out of the closet a couple years of identifying as SO GAY, because they pretty much have to reallign everything in their life with this new part of their identity. It takes a while, and is sort of the same thing that any person away from home will do when they restructure their belief system, be it political party, race, or sexual orientation. That's what college is for (or the equivalent for those who don't go to college).
But yes, after that, being around someone who brings every detail of life back to BECAUSE I AM GAY is super annoying. I had a coworker and friend do this when he came out in his 40s. Every conversation had to be through the lens of gay vs straight, men vs women. I had to wrangle him back from the stupidest shit sometimes.

I know we had this discussion a month ago but I go through my comments sometimes just out of curiosity sometimes and I can't believe I didn't bring this up.
This Key and Peele skit, while completely over the top and satirical (as Key and Peele is), perfectly describes what I mean by how a line gets crossed at some point and it's just infuriating.
Yes, exactly that. We expect people to grow into a multi-faceted identity as adults, and when someone can only related to things in regard to one part of who they are, well. You wonder if there's anything else about them. Also, no one wants to have the same conversation all. the. time. Plus, goddamn, don't have penis desk toys at work.
Whenever someone gives this side of the argument I usually show this clip from Key and Peele that really nails it on the issue. Link
It's not exactly the spectrum of what this conversation is over but it shows basically what's going on. There's talking about your sexuality plainly like a normal person and then there is just parading it around for attention to show of how different you are to everyone else.
It's not that they can't talk about it. But when you know someone for an extended period of time and it's the only thing they ever talk about, you have the right to be annoyed whether they're talking about fucking dudes, fucking chicks, or playing hockey.
Anyone who rants on about one thing for their entire life is annoying. Conversation needs diversity, or else ima walk away from you.
Went to an engineering workshop recently, we spoke about structural engineering for about.. 10 mins. then we started on how bad the donuts were that were provided.
Point is, just because you are passionate about something, doesn't mean donuts are good.
I don't think it's an age thing so much as just being an asshole. Their opportunities to hook up just dwindle with time, so they simply appear tamer later in life.
But tons of gay people will be sure to let you know they're gay and don't worry, you'll never forget, because it's all they'll talk about.
I don't know a lot of gay people who actually do this. The select few who do are usually generally pretty immature and mostly use it as a mechanism to cope with living in a homophobic environment. On top of that, many gay communities become very insular over time (thanks to the aforementioned homophobic environment), so it kind of becomes the norm to talk about "gay stuff" all the time if you're super active within a community and they become your primary friend group.

Most gay/queer people grow up with their family and friends and random strangers and politicians constantly making a big deal about the fact that they're not straight. Look at any news story about a gay person - they're always identified as gay actor/politican/scientist/whatever. When they get interviewed, it's about gay identity and what they think about gay issues, etc.
Is it really surprising that gay people then get kind of hung up about it?
It's starting to get better - culturally, the US is giving less and less of a shit but the time when a lot of these youtubers grew up, coming out was still a big, sometimes dangerous deal. Hell, it still is in parts of the US. When the rest of us start not caring, I expect that most gay/queer people will give less of a crap about it too.

Some people do this because society tells them it's the only part of their identity that matters. They do it for the same reason many of us LGBTQ+ people choose not to come out at all: having a non-normative identity can define the way other people see you.
Straight people don't do this because heterosexuality is the norm in society. They don't have to tell people they're straight because it's assumed, and being straight doesn't define their experiences.
But that's just my opinion based on personal experience.
I read a book recently that had a character question why the main character couldn't just quietly stay in the closet without getting upset. I felt like it was commentary on the whole "your whole identity is gay" thing straight people seem to talk about all the time.

Meh, I've known quite a few gay people, and none were that bad. Maybe the occasional joke here or there ("go straight at this intersection", "I can't", "fuck off"), but that's it. It's just easier to notice the flamboyant walking stereotype than you're average gay dude.
For every queer person who's open about their sexuality, there are many, many more who aren't. Many are loud and out because other wise they're shut into a closet.
It's ok to find it annoying. But if someone says "I'm gay" or "I'm bi", don't start rolling your eyes.
Imagine living years not being able to talk about your sexuality out of fear of being rejected or even worse, beaten and abused and then when you do being told you're annoying and making it your entire identity.
Straight people are everywhere and constantly talking about their relationships, gay people have exactly that same entitlement.

Thank god it wasn't just me that was thinking this way. I'm bi, so my experience is a little different, but I didn't come out properly until I was 19 and I grew up listening to everyone talking casually about their sexuality and feeling completely isolated because I had a part of my identity I had to hide.
Even now if I mention crushes on someone of the same sex I get nervous or I'm met with the "you always talk about your sexuality!" rhetoric. Yeah, no shit, I kept it a secret for 19 years and I'm not doing it anymore.
Yep. People hear a guy talk about what he and his girlfriend did that weekend and don't bat an eye, but a guy starts talking about what him and his boyfriend were out doing and it's "jeez we get it you're gay".

We went to the mall abd saw a movie. Cool.
We got wasted and had passionate hot sex. Not cool.
A lot of flamboyantly gay dudes in my honest experience are just annoying as hell people. It has nothing to do with them being gay and everything to do with them just being annoying insufferable crybabies. But if I saw anything negative it's automatically I hate gay people. You can just be an annoying person talking about shit nobody can relate to or cares about. Shit I love taking acid at music festivals and jam bands,you know how hard it is for me to find someone I can talk about it with?
I understand, it just seems a little weird that you'll acknowledge that this has 'nothing to do with them being gay' but also specifically flag up gay dudes as the problem here? As someone that's been working in a warehouse the last few weeks, straight dudes can be just as (if not WAY MORE) obnoxious when it comes to constantly talking about sex. Which just leads me to believe this has nothing to do specifically with being gay, so while I don't think you're homophobic I can see it being perceived that way when you say "A lot of gay dudes are annoying people". Maybe they're just... people? I'd feel the same way if you were talking about Asians or jewish people.
because straight is viewed as "normal" and you're automatically assumed straight so really there's no need to even mention it. plus there's an aspect to gay culture and specifically gay history and things like that (voguing, clubs, slang and fashion styles, tragic history as well) that simply does not exist for straight people as they've never had to even think about or had their sexuality challenged. I don't know why people are so hostile for people owning something that most people still put others down for and that people are still being murdered over. ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ gay pride 4ever sorry if it annoys you but just being annoyed someone else is happy for being who they are seems like a better side of the fence than people ridiculously hating on you for being who you are
I think it also largely have to do with the way LGBT and minorities are sometimes treated. If you were gay in middle school, that was all you were. people dismissed your opinions "their gay so who cares what they think about the superbowl." It was the one insult people gave to you. You spend a lot of time being hyperaware of it. So it becomes your identity.
I understand this argument, but the difference is that being straight is still very much the assumed norm. Watch adverts on television for example. While it seems reductive to define your entire identity by your sexuality (and I know a lot of gay people who feel the same), it makes you clearly visible as such to other people of the same orientation, something which is especially desirable in areas where being homosexual can put you at risk of physical violence.
To piggyback off this, I was watching the movie twister on tv and at the end the main man and main woman just start making out for no reason whatsoever and the movie ends ugh

Well the world won't let us forget either, so let's call it even.
I'm not gay but from what I observed, gay is both a sexual orientation and a lifestyle/culture. Some people choose to partake in the culture more than others is all. Just like gaming is. For example, I like playing video games a lot (every day) but I don't really like the gamer culture, which I define as going to cons, wearing game related apparel, buying game related merchandising and generally fanning out over the rumors of new releases etc. I just play games and watch them on twitch, it's more something i do while others it's a big part of their lives. People wouldn't even know I am gamer because I don't care to talk about it irl.
Same with gay culture, there's parades, neighborhoods, bars, specific stores that cater to the gay community, etc. But you don't have to partake in any of that to actually be gay, you just have to prefer the same sex.
I feel like both are valid positions to have because it's something that makes them feel happy. If it's not meant for you then don't watch it. It's not like they're tricking people, people who want to watch gay shit watch their videos and are happy.
This is likely due to the fact that many LGBTQ people kept it hidden for a while. Transitioning into being "out" has specific stages a lot of times, one of them being prioritizing it as an identity before they mellow out.
Obviously being memorable only because of your sexuality is pretty lame, but to give some context it's because most people who are gay feel alienated from the rest of the world until they work out who they are.
A big part of who you are is your romantic and sexual desires.
Most people don't have to work it out, or get persecuted because of it. As a result in order to feel like they are ok, that they aren't totally strange and wrong, many anchor their identity to their sexuality. It gives you people who went through what you went through, films that depict your experiences, music that they play at clubs that welcome and accept you.
I don't think any of this is very conscious- it's just a way of creating a feeling of belonging.
Especially as a teen people often only talk to you about gay things. You come out and girls want you to go shopping with them and recommend how to wear their hair.
I largely grew out of it but when you're young it takes most people a lot of courage and effort to come out - it's natural to be a big part of their identity- it's probably the bravest thing they have ever done.
Thanks for listening - love those people for just being them and most will naturally grow out of it.
I'm queer, and I stay away from the "queer culture" because it has all the worst qualities of a fandom (well, also arguably the best, but still). But there's a reason for that, and you know it. A prosecuted minority needs to organize into a subculture, it's a survival strategy. Straight people don't identify as straight because society doesn't remind them of their sexuality in a negative way every day. When "gay", or "transgender", or other things like that are de-stigmatized and become just another neutral quality, there will be no need for a queer subculture. By that moment we'll see conservative politicians talking about how marriage equality is a traditional value :)
People identify themselves with what they do that not a majority of people do. It doesn't make you different from anyone to be straight; most people are. It does make you different to be gay, so it's something worth talking about (at least in our current time period where it's still not accepted as normal, but not shameful anymore). Like in your example, people identify themselves as gamers and runners because not a majority of people game or run as a hobby.
You've clearly never talked to a straight person before.

I'm bi but even people Ir've known for years don't tend to know. I'm not hiding it, I live in a very liberal country, it just doesn't come up that often and I don't tend to hit on people a lot. Most people just assume I'm straight and why would I care if they're wrong about that?
I hate it when I meet men and women who, within 5 minutes of conversation, for no good reason, I know about that they're gay or bi. I'm not saying like they mention their same-sex partner by a gendered pronoun, I mean that every asset of their personality oozes their sexuality.
I consider myself a pretty normal guy who sometimes likes to suck dick. I don't feel like making that small a part of my life into a major facet of my personality. I have bigger issues to deal with.
It amazes me how simply being gay is some people's identity in the same way that most people identify themselves by their favorite hobby.

I've literally never in my life had someone go out of their way to tell me they were gay. Perhaps you feel like things such as talking with a lisp and other stereotypical gay indicators are a form of signaling and that therefore, anyone who is stereotypically gay is somehow "rubbing your face in it".
Perhaps you're just so emotionally reactive to the notion of gayness that those rare instances in which someone did mention being gay have heightened significance in your mind.
Either way, I have a ridiculously hard time believing your premise. On the flip side, if I had a nickel for Everytime someone said "no homo", I would have many, many nickels.
By the way, I'm totally straight. I'm a dude with a wife. We bone. It's pretty awesome.
I had a gay roommate in 2006-2007 who was EXACTLY like that (and was also a very shitty human being in other ways) and I feel guilty now about holding it against gay people in general for a bit.
People don't like to hear it but there were so many younger trans people in my youth group who had no other defining anything other than being trans. Sorry but I wanna talk about life, not endlessly rehash the same transition topics over and over again. I didn't ask about your transition, literally everyone here is trans, I asked about you! It's similar to when some gay kids go full rainbow mode, it's just as obnoxious.
Again, being gay is a big part of a person's identity and something that people are still killed for. People are automatically assumed to be straight, and being gay is seen as a big deal by people who hate them. It's nothing like being a twat about smoking weed.

Also don't do this. Every so often I might say something in a camp fashion ironically but that's about it
Yeah, I get that it can be kind of excessive if 100% of their content is based on their sexuality, and I generally believe that if that's the most interesting thing about you, you're not an interesting person. That said, there's a certain place for videos that are explicitly about aspects of being gay. In particular, growing up gay and going through adolescence can be an isolating experience, and it can be really important for closeted kids or those who simply have no gay friends to feel some small connection to the community and hear others like them talk about how they deal with similar situations.
I mean that's because other people make it their identity.

Some guy dropped out at 15 to make YouTube videos
[deleted] ยท 19 points ยท Posted at 01:14:06 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I don't know the situation, but I dropped out at 15 to be a stuntman. I'm 32 now and only make a couple thousand a year in a good year being a stuntman but that led me to making a killing in real estate(3 hours of online courses and a 2 hour test.) I still get to be a stuntman and I'm very happy with my decision.
School isn't for everyone, don't let the man tell you what to do.
Nobody becomes a millionaire or even start careers by themselves.
A TV show host doesn't become a millionaire because he made the entire show by himself, he has an entire army of stage crew, producers, directors, writers, musicians, make up, assistants, interns etc.
A kid hosting a youtube channel show, with the help of parents is exactly the same. That kid's going to have more money and live a better life than most humans on earth.
I'm not going to link my channel, simply because I have not told that story or even made it public, and it's something I want to actually address on my channel instead of "coming out" with it in a random reddit thread. I don't know how else to prove it to you. It might be incorrect to say I "make a living" off it though, as I still live with my parents, but I pay for my own shit and don't have a second job nor do I go to school. My income is an average of 800-1000 USD a month.

No I don't know of any but I also don't really use youtube often, but I'm sure it is entirely possible.
As for being able to drop at 15? I'm honestly not sure about that. I know that minors are required to attend school, but there are certain stipulations that would allow them not to.
I'm just fairly certain a 15 year old kid wouldn't get popular enough to make a 'career' out of YouTube (especially considering I don't think they'd be able to make money?)
Nice strawman. I didn't say anything even remotely close to what you are blabbering on about. I disagree with saying that it's "pathetic" that someone dropped out to do YouTube. If anything, that is a clear sign of more talent than anyone who would think of it as "pathetic".

I'm so glad you mentioned her. She's not exactly a well-known youtuber so she doesn't get called out as much besides the whole gaming fiasco. Now she just sticks to vlogs but even they suck.
They're all (the vlogs) pg 13 whist also somehow managing not to be .. she uses every ounce of sex appeal she can muster to entice click bait whilst also staying within the YouTube rules and regulations. Example ... 'I found my old nudes' video title .. nowhere in the video does she show nudes, of course, because you can't do the shit on YouTube. However it still gets people to click the video ahaha

I really dont want to sound rude but if your understanding of what entertainment is tits you have low standarts.
If I find your content entertaining because of tits then it's still content I want to view, then they should be paid for it.
If I need to compare the same type of content, there are woman who take dicks up their every single existing hole because they need to earn money to keep living. Those people deserve the money.

Like Laci Greene? "Dont objectify me" has camera at a high yet down ward shot of her cleavage.
Now, you don't actually need visual...stimulus...to get the ASMR, and most of the content for it relies on pure audio.
But, there are a ton of girls who've figured out it's a great way to feel sexy with plausible deniability, and get attention (of course!), so, natch, most of the vids that make it to the top are 19-year-olds on eighteen inches of makeup with their tits pushed up to their chin, leeeeeaning over a camera.
[deleted] ยท 10 points ยท Posted at 23:06:44 on February 14, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think Gwengwiz is the worst. She wears absurdly revealing clothes, but the camera cuts off before the cleavage, then the thumbnail is always just her boobs which don't even appear in the video. And she does ''gf roleplay'' videos which are totally not at all how real people talk. (she is also gay if any men are thinking about trying to hit on her through the comments.)
It's not misleading though, she's actually in the video. Lots of youtubers reuse thumbnails and use lighting effects and editing tools for their thumbnails is that also misleading? Using your looks to an advantage is more smart than pathetic

I personally like VisualSounds1 because is the first channel I ever found and has some of my favourites, although I haven't seen most of the lastest videos cause Harley Queen make-up and such. What we just mentioned. This was my first ASMR video and still love it.
ASMRrequest is my favourite ever because of all the effort, setting up, acting on the role plays and variety. I love love her roleplays. Departure and any of the roleplays are incredible for me. Sadly she hasn't been uploading much lately.
And lastly... well, Ephmeral Rift, because it's quite different. It's true that I've only seen some, like The Repairman, but those are the channels I'm suscribed to and watch before going to sleep or stressed.
Any suggestions would be gladly appreciated.
Edit: Formatting is hard. Coming up with new excuses for formatting too.
There's a female guitar player who always wears low cut tops to show off the cleavage. Tons of clicks and a huge fanbase. It's sad that she does that because she plays well, and really should be showcasing that.

Watch the videos PewDiePie, Markiplier, and Matthew Santoro made on "YouTube drama." Or better yet, don't watch them. So much pissing in the wind...
EDIT: I did not say all their videos are bad. Fanboys, stop strawmanning me and please, for everyone's sake, learn to tolerate a dissenting opinion. I'm talking specifically about PewDiePie's "YouTube Drama", Markiplier's "YouTube Has Changed", and Matthew Santoro's "YouTube is Changing" videos from April of 2016.
That Markiplier video was the most pointless thing I've ever seen. It was actually really weird how long he could say words without them having any meaning whatsoever. It was almost like a subreddit simulator post.
That's Markiplier in a nutshell though. Every time he reaches some "milestone" he releases some pointless thank you video telling people that subscribing to him somehow makes a difference in the world. So full of shit it's unbelievable.
Kaprak ยท 40 points ยท Posted at 02:15:55 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Actually Markiplier's done a fair amount of charity work, especially after a good friend of his committed suicide. He's probably one of the most genuine guys on YouTube.
[deleted] ยท 19 points ยท Posted at 05:01:32 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
And I agree, and what some people are missing is that sometimes being genuine leads to speak in a roundabout manner, or not really saying anything at all. He's putting his thoughts out there as he has them, and saying what comes to his head and heart. He's completely genuine about almost everything. I love that about him.
I don't deny he's done a lot of good things. I just think his milestone videos are him masturbating his own ego and I don't think anyone who is an entertainer can be genuine
I'll give him some credit though since, in Mark's case, he was really falling onto some really tough times before he did YouTube, which really did change his life for the better in the end.
Mark did make an interesting point saying that if you aren't famous, you won't make a successful video of staring at a banana for several minutes. I'm not sure what other points he made though.

Yup, I acutally find the things he makes now enjoyable.
Not really. I watched part of a new video the other day and it was literal word vomit for 10 minutes. His humor caters specifically to younger kids, definitely. I thought, wow why the fuck do people watch this, maybe this video was just one off. So I go to watch another one. Same shit.
I know people will get mad at me for this since he has 50 million subscribers, but he doesn't release quality content. He releases "THIS WAS A HORRIBLE IDEA" click bait videos lately, where he talks about something inane and says some jokes that you can only like if youre a young kid or a stunted adult.
I'm with you blud - watching YouTubers in general seems to be the preserve of manchildren these days. I've tried to get into it but 80% of them are just inane, lowest common denominator doss cunts. I'm 26 btw...
Thank you! Yep, exact same boat as you. I've only really been watching stand up comedy, or technical channels in hobbies I'm into, and those have 30,000 views while some guy throws iPhones off a roof and get 10 million views per phone.
I guess it's just indicative of the viewership. I hate to sound even remotely close to /r/iamverysmart material, but if you're an adult, you can clearly see that, exactly as you said, they cater to the lowest common denominator, either children, or idiots. I mean, I can understand watching one video and being entertained for a few minutes, but how about the "1000 degree knife EXPERIMENT", where the knife is neither 1000, nor is it an experiment. How does every single one of those hundred identical videos have millions of views other than the viewers are little children or brain dead?

Judging from the very limited experience of Pewdiepie I've had, what he's done has aged his content up with his audience. So now he pretends to be edgy as fuck, since those who first started watching him are now like 3 years older.
I liked him back in the days of Amnesia, but he just got... boring about 4 years ago. I think he ran out of jokes at some point, but was too deep in Youtube.
I only know about him because of Reddit tbh. If you're not into the stuff he posts you're not going to know about him unless you keep up on famous youtubers or whatever.

Because there's more to life than watching TV/videos on YouTube?
Oh no, what did Matthew do? I used to be into YouTube years ago and I followed Matt before he got big. Kinda lost interest in YouTubers after a while so I'm completely out of the loop now.
At least that's the kinda content they usually make. Like they don't try to act above it. I grew to hate GradeAunderA for getting involved in the YouTube drama whole consistently saying he didn't want to get into drama because he was so above it. Then he made like five videos about drama and got really annoying really fast. His first video calling out YouTube was fine, but he saw the attention and ran with it which like cool fine, sure. But at least own up to it and don't pretend you're not embracing the drama.
I just watched GAUA rant about drama and how lumping so many things under "drama" was stupid... then went back to watching his rant about english words.

Oh, sorry. I thought you were just attacking the whole "appeals to middle school kids who need to obsessively follow something" group. My bad.
It is becoming the most easiest cashgrab nowadays to play the role of "logical rationalist" who repeats the same tired cliches one could find on /r/TumblrInAction for 15 minutes. Redditors eat that shit up like groceries.
Not trying to be controversial but how exactly is that pathetic? I can understandably see why someone who's very liberal might feel some type of way about it but even then, does that really make it pathetic or just annoying to you?
I believe they are suggesting that while some youtubers may express these views and are contributing to the analysis of modern culture through their perception, others are simply pandering to a market (in this case the neo-conservative alt-right) for easy views and clicks.
People like having their own opinion repeated to them. Plenty of youtubers are more than happy to fill that gap with low-effort, low-thought videos that do nothing but address the surface of the problems and contain the buzzwords their target demographic wants to hear.
That second paragraph is universal. Every political spectrum is guilty of it. It takes effort to create videos that dig down into the heart of your ideology and the ones that do often go unappreciated compared to weekly updates paraphrasing popular posts from reddit, or tumblr, or 4chan, or whatever social media is most heavily utilised by your target demographic.
That behaviour is the pathetic part. The laziness. And in some cases, the hypocrisy. People are more than happy to pretend to hold an ideology for money. There are sock puppet accounts on reddit paid for by corporations or governments, there are respected journalists and news anchors whose opinions contradict each other depending on who they are talking to, and you can be damn sure there are youtubers who are arguing a viewpoint they do not really believe in because it gets them views, and clicks, and ultimately, money.
Heck, there are some people who will argue a point they don't agree with just to be contrarian, because they enjoy arguments.
And that's the behaviour I really think that Kaiserbeamz is trying to call pathetic: Lazy, potentially hypocritical, pandering. The fact they called out anti-SJW specifically is only because they are currently the more noticeable panderers on youtube.
I think the reason they're doing it so much now is because there's endless cringey SJW content being made, whether it be from celebrities, corporations or other YouTubers and A LOT of people are starting to get really turned off by it lol a girl I went to highschool with who was the worst embodiment of the "angry snowflake feminist" stereotype even went on a twitter rant about SJW's, I didn't read through it all but it made me do the "single exhale chuckle" because I thought to myself if SHE is ranting about sjw's something must really be out of hand lol. Now obviously, that proves absofuckinglutely nothing lol but it took me aback and I'm starting to see lots of people feel the same way whether it's right or wrong, just an observation.
Now i must say I can't really get mad at YouTubers for going after low hanging fruit no matter what the subject is because now to not get fucked over by YouTube's new algorithm you HAVE to keep content coming or else your subscribers will start missing your videos in their subscription box and they'll stop suggesting you on other folks videos. Making deep philosophical videos takes a long time to research, shoot, edit and upload, and that just isn't sustainable for a one man crew to do. That's why I don't mind when some of my favorite YouTubers do a vlog or a chill video once in a while because pumping out those high-quality videos is hard as fuck to do haha.
So the real answer is anyone who panders to their audience? I 100% understand that take on it and actually respect that opinion but I gotta disagree, because if your fans aren't entertained then you're not getting views which means you've hurt your own pockets by not giving the fans/viewers what they want and I can't expect a YouTuber to hurt their own pocketbooks just so people who disagree with their opinions regardless find their content slightly more tasteful because at the end of the day I get to watch their content for $0.00. But I do agree with you that it's super fucking lame when people spout shit they don't actually believe in or pander to an audience they aren't even a part of for views and money but that's just become part of our world now that going viral is so damn profitable and streamlined with the help of every social media app.
I hope nothing I wrote came off as rude, I always have a hard time communicating my actual tone and intentions over Reddit and people always think you have the absolute worst intentions lol
Hmm. I can understand where you are coming from. "Gotta make a living" is a convincing argument, and you're right, youtube is a rigged game at the moment rewarding content makers who can make weekly, 10 minute videos regardless of quality.
On the other hand I think that perhaps if a channel isn't financially viable when it puts out quality content, maybe it should only stay a hobby. Especially when there are so many other ways for creators to make money nowadays besides youtube revenue.
A vlog once a week is hardly the end of the world, but when it becomes a daily vlog, or if its the only content a channel puts out, that's where it starts to become a bit pitiable, in my mind at least.
IDK, It seems like a perfectly healthy coping mechanism. It not only allows them to feel heard, but also lets them hear others feedback, and hell, if they can make some cash doing it, why the hell hate them for it.
(Not a fan, just seems perfectly healthy as a coping mechanism - logically think through the issue, talk it out, post it and feel heard, etc)
These people suck! They don't deserve the views! I can't believe they make money off of this shit! Here's the link, make sure to click it and maybe like and subscribe and share!

An annoying youtuber who was vegan for years now is banking on the fact that now he's not vegan. So all his videos are "WATCH A VEGAN EAT A SAUSAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS!!!!" and it's incredibly annoying. Worse that the reason he stopped being vegan was simply because he said he was worried about his health... and then he goes and starts eating pizza and shit. Lol. Okay.
That's how I feel. The game is secondary to the personalities.
My personal favorite right now is a group called Funhaus. It's the old Inside Gaming guys plus a couple of people from Game Trailers. Their editing, in particular, is hilarious and puts them in a completely other league.

Crash course- not the most in-depth, but solid, bingeable videos about important educational topics. Teachers even assign it as homework sometimes
every frame a painting if you're a movies guy
Vsauce- any/all of their stuff
mommy comedy is stupidly underrated but they put a lot of tlc into their content
ASAPScience, minutephysics and numberphile are neat educational shows
a howto on like anything you could dream of. Makeup girls are super helpful if you're still trying to learn about that or if you have a daughter who is
A huge swath of gamers if you're into that (I like Polygon but they're not for everyone)
Singers like Madilyn Bailey or Sam Tsui it's a whole clique but they're all fun
Probably a ton of stuff I'm leaving out but yeah some youtubers are genuinely trying to make good content and serve their fans to keep them coming back. The vlog brothers, creators of crash course, vidcon and project4awesome, are heroes in my eyes because of this.
The only creator I actually watch is McJuggernuggets. That whole psycho series with double daily uploads for like a year was a pretty amazing feat. I wish he got more recognition for it, this si my 2nd time watching through every single one of his vids.

That's pretty much what I watch on there. Also clips from the late night talk shows, which is all you really need from them. I might have gotten into the video game commentaries if my kids hadn't ran them into the ground for me.
I like user horror stories, case files and readings from the depths of r/nosleep such as Cayleigh Elise - she clearly works hard and makes good content as a result. Rob Dyke used to be good, but has been running dry of material lately - he's been branching into Leafyishere-type social commentary videos, which is a shame.

Yep, youtube's algorithm is weird. When I upload private or unlisted videos I find it weird how they get like 50 views when it's only me using the link and seen the video twice, but every time the player loaded, even if by accident, and even if it played 0% of the video (closed before it started), it counts as a view.
Really? I thought they changed that to reduce click-bait being more popular. I heard somewhere that clicks do not equal views, but I'm not a youtuber, so I don't know...
Adblock is the solution to the issue. Still fucked up and wrong though.

I don't feel like that was them capitalizing off of Amanda Todd's suicide. This video was made before when they had really expanded (only 1 channel and the two kids react and teens react series). The tone of the video felt serious and seemed genuine. It felt like the Fine Brothers genuinely wanted to have a discussion between these teens (and their viewers) about bullying and suicide.
I remember watching the video when the whole Amanda Todd fiasco was a thing on the internet. I remember genuinely connecting with the video. So what you said isn't really a good criticism of the Fine Brothers.

Yeah, with the whole React World controversy, once the backlash happened, they had ended React World, removed their trademark application, and admitted that they were wrong and apologized.
Also, I understand not liking their React series, but it's not like the worst thing in the world. They only show portions of the videos, the video is centered on the reactions rather than the videos, and they ask permission of the creators first before doing it. It's not something people should be getting worked up about.
I never understood why people got upset with this. It's no different than just hosting a discussion about suicide or cyberbullying in general. The fact that there's a name attached to it doesn't grossly alter the content.
One can argue they shouldn't have put up ads to financially benefit off of the video but there's nothing inherently wrong about asking people of a similar age how they deal with those issues. I find it way better than all the major news networks with 30-40 year olds who pretend like they can understand how high school life works.
My only issue was them showing the picture of bleeding self harm wounds without any sort of warning. I know everyone jokes about being "triggered" but even if I wasn't a person with issues with self harm I still would like to know before I see someone's cut up, bloody arm.
Yeah, I really liked this video too, for similar reasons. I also didn't see it until after a lot of the focus on it had died down, so it didn't feel like they were hitching a ride on topical tragedies
yeah but since they tried to create their react empire or whatever everybody hates on them now. just follow the circlejerk and you'll be fine

This type of exploitative video is always heartbreaking to see. The only way to justify making something like this is if the revenue made is donated to the family or some sort of relevant charity.
Nah man, the video is demonetized, so they aren't getting any money from it. It came out back before the FineBros got really big too. I think they just wanted to have a genuine discussion about bullying and suicide.

The subject matter is perfectly valid. Whether they should have ads on it is another topic. But if you're going to call them out for even treating it as a discussion topic, call out every major news network for providing coverage of it or talking about it at any point after it happened in real time.
Even ads are fine, ethically speaking, if they're not monetizing them. An ad for suicide prevention services on a suicide-related video is fine if they're doing it for free as a public service.

I don't want to click the link so can someone please sum up what happened?
After the Amanda Todd story broke, they had a Teens React video about it. It's intended to create a discussion about the issue of bullying and suicide, especially in teens online. They cut out the usually upbeat intro, since that would be inappropriate, and even had a warning at the very beginning of the video that the topic is heavy and viewer discretion is advised.
As to the actual video, they have the teens react to the video that Amanda Todd left as a suicide note telling her story. There is not actual footage of any suicide. All it is is a black and white video of a girl, with her face out of the frame, telling her story through a series of cards with the events written on them. Also, when I say react, I don't mean the over the top reactions usually on these types of channels, but that they actually asked the teens questions and fostered a discussion about mental illness, bullying, suicide, etc. the video itself is very well done.
I think the problem some people are having is due to the fact that it is monitozed. I saw someone else say that the video was made before they were a super big channel, so it was probably when they were still trying to pay the bills. (I could be wrong though). They probably forgot to take the ads off when they got more famous later down the line.
TL;DR Fine bros make a video discussing a certain heavy topic and genuinely trying to raise awareness and get people thinking about what they can do in response to depression, bullying, and suicide. The video has ads, and this is the main problem people have.
There are dozens of things to hate the Fine Bros. for but this is tame compared to other shit they've done.

No it doesn't. Have you watched it? IIIRC the ads have been off from all of their serious videos, this being the prime example. The only thing that can be called an "ad" in that video is the links to http://www.stopbullying.gov/ and
http://www.itgetsbetter.org/ , which is laudable. That shit with React World was really really stupid but there's no point hating on them for actually doing something right.
This video is the reason I started watching H3H3 and other YouTube 'whitleblowers'. I hated how the Fine Bros played it off like they were doing everyone a favor! I mean fuck off! If they got away with this stunt, YouTube would probably be in bad shape today with significantly less users. Thankfully we'll never know.

I don't think he's doing it for views, because even normal work earns more than his videos. Most of his videos get barely any views, or at least not enough to make a good amount of money.
In Spain one youtuber is being sued for giving Oreos with toothpaste to a homeless person that later made him feel ill and puke (that wasn't recorded). In his "defense", he also gave him 20 euros.
I spent way too long making a music video about how sweet pickles suck. It culminated in me dressing like Dr. Phil and having my mom film my dad waterboarding me with pickle juice. All for 300 views and ears full of brine. Pretty pathetic if you ask meandtotopitoffnowI'mselfpromotingonreddit

I kind of feel bad for the LA Beast. He tried to transition out of making 'challenge' videos and lost a lot of views. So he just went back to making them, after admitting in many vlogs he doesn't enjoy doing them. And the whole crystal Pepsi thing really went off the rails... Just seems like a guy who's life is out of his control. So now he has to eat light bulbs and tubs of mayonnaise to pay the rent.

Frankly speaking, way too many YouTubers don't realize that they're not popular because of their persona, but because of the content they create. And once you move away from that content, your personality isn't entertaining enough to keep you going on the same level. I'll watch Gordon Ramsay trying to balance a turd on a stick for an hour, while I just don't find James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) entertaining when he's not playing some sort of character (AVGN, Board James).
It requires serious effort to keep people entertained in this flood of content, specially when you're not trying to grab fast views by following the latest trend.

In my country (Philippines), there was a huge typhoon that decimated the capital through massive floods. Hundreds are dead. This YouTube couple posted a video, saying that each 1000 views the video gets, they'll donate 1 peso. People were so outraged that they attracted a ton of hate, and it never went away. The guy in the couple got cancer years later, and people still hated him through his ordeal, thinking that all videos they post about his illness (and asking for donations) are a ploy for attention. It did not help that the girl is a massive toolbag, like asking for donations one week, and then posting about saving up money to buy an iPhone the next week. People thought she was being fake, and the guy is being tagged as the same. Then the guy died and the girl tried to get into showbiz...

It was a great move. If you watch his channel delete video, which is the only one of his videos I've seen, he does a montage of all the sites that ran the story. Dude just throws out that he's out, and gets more free press than anyone could ever need. Say what you want about him, but he isn't stupid.

in the past year or so I think I did a complete 180 in my opinion of pewdiepie. like could you imagine if a scumlord like syndicate ended up as the #1 most popular channel on YouTube? if he was the face of YouTube success?
even if I don't like his content, Its good to have a guy as genuine as Felix at the top tbh.
Oh god if 1# was someone like Sernandoe or some other ass like him. GTAVI videos overtaking everything as Rockstar still won't give a date, people making dozens of GTAV clickbait and other ugly ass content.
Rather subjective humor than cancer
He shouldn't make jokes some people will be offended by, if he does fuck him, he shouldn't get views.
What about people who like the humor? Fuck them too? You are essentially saying that nobody should like offensive humor and if they do they should fuck off.
It's not about offensiveness, it's about whether it's FACTUAL.
If pewdiepie says "fans don't come to my house" , is he joking?
If pewdiepie says "I don't do YouTube for the money", is he joking?
That's the problem I have, Pewdiepie can say what he wants but as soon as something he says is negatively received he can immediately pretend that it was all a joke.
Obviously this isn't the case with the neo-nazism but you get what I mean. If all of his content can never be taken seriously, it's not worth watching, it just becomes as bad as the other channels who are click baiting serious topics without any detailed discussion.
Sure when you don't watch the content you may find it harder to see what is and isn't jokes, such as someone who never saw his content sees a title that is full of clickbait and the thumbnail is too, they would assume he is a clickbait channel but in reality it could be the video is centered around the topic of clickbait on youtube.
It is a sense of humor that some don't get and I do respect that, I just hate the people who don't get what is and isn't a joke but still use it to get tons of views themselves by accusing his jokes of being factual, without asking anyone who does get it, and even if they knew they would take advantage of the fact not everyone else does.
I've actually been watching PewDiePie for years and recently unsubscribed because of this change. Like the op said, it becomes hard to tell what is a joke or not, and if everything is just satire, why bother watching the video then? His titles and thumbnails are always fake or about something meagre in the video, and just because he acknowledges it and jokes about it, it doesn't make his content suddenly 'genius' like his newer fans love to claim.
When I say I miss the old PewDiePie, it wasn't because of the horror games or the childish screaming, but it was because he seemed like a more wholesome person who really cared a lot about his fan base. In his new video talking about how his show got canceled, he does the brofist at the end and calls his subscribers his bros, which he hasn't done in forever. I found it very disingenuous of him, and it made me sick to see that it took that long, took Disney actually dropping him, for him to actually try to reconnect with the people that made his channel so big, even after he made multiple videos about how he hated the old way he used to make videos, ranting about YouTube, and the comment section.
I only felt that way because I was such a huge fan for a long time. Now it's like he shits on his fans and couldn't care less who watches his videos. If the title, description, and thumbnail has nothing to do with the video, I don't see why bother even watching it. It's like he's just tired of YouTube and doesn't care anymore. Watching his videos now just bring me down.

Here's what bothered me. He did it a few months ago. Where the fuck were they then? They have every right of course to drop him but where the fuck is the conviction?
Either the intent is important, or the result is. You can't have it both ways. If you take PewDiePie's intent as a joke then I could say that asking a guy to kill my wife is a joke too.

Actually it was more because big news websites used it to lie to their viewers that it was real so most people who don't watch pewds for "real" thought that it was real while most of pewds "real" subs knew it was a joke.
Which still doesn't free you from consequences. The dancing 'Death to Jews' guys was not the first time he has been reprimanded for questionable content. In fact, it was something like the sixth time in 3 months. I don't care what your job is, if you make questionable remarks in a widely-seen forum, you will end up with consequences.

I saw in the news today his show was canceled and premium ad agreement pulled for anti-Semitic videos?
Dude makes millions each year for relatively little effort and isn't even 30 yet. Anyone with a working brain should've known he would never leave that.
The way Shoenice promotes his channel though comments is pretty pathetic too. He'll make a genuine comment that's just his opinion on something relevant to the video. Nothing wrong with that. But the moment someone replies he'll reply back saying "Please check out my channel and subscribe I'll eat anything, it's really funny etc, etc." He'll do that multiple times in the same comment thread, as if once wasn't enough.

You have to realise that different people like different content. I never understood how RayWilliamJohnson was the biggest youtuber many years ago, because all he did was also take people's videos and add some scripted "reactions" or jokes. That wasn't funny to me at all but many people, including my friends, found it hilarious.

The parents of those "kid toy" videos putting their kids into creepy and repetitive situations every video. Kids love toys, but when you spend hundreds/thousands of dollars on them just for them to hit their early teens and never want to see their toys again? It's gonna leave a mark. Bad parenting too, I can only assume that those kids have never had any negative feedback on anything, just so they behave for the videos.

Here in Spain we have a plage of pranksters doing misserable things to the lower classes. We had one guy making a video about wanting to sue a man for punching him because he was "just doing a prank". The man was working and this kid comes up and insults him, and when the worker gets really mad he keeps insulting him to get the reaction he wanted. That guy almost lost his job because a kid wanted to get viral.
And then there was another guy who gave oreos filled with toothpaste to a homeless man and filmed his reaction. Truly disgustung.

It's sickening how far people are willing to go just for five minutes of fame and a couple of numbers on a screen. Is it that hard to ask yourself: "Would this be funny if it happened to me? What would the consequences be?".
The beautiful thing about these things is how the whole county turned against them. The first one had to delete the chanel due to our rage and the toothpaste guy is facing court this month I think.
VitalyzdTv - Making a video about giving food to homeless people and acting like he cares about them, when you can see him shouting and acting hostile towards them in the video itself.
JoeySalads- Faking social experiments which are actually low-key racist against black people. Also, faking an entire child predator video for views. You know what? All his videos are probably fake.
JoshPalerLin- Giving 100 bucks to a homeless person and then telling him to use that money to buy food for other homeless persons, then filming it and putting on YouTube to earn way more than the 100 bucks he initially gave.
I would link you to those videos but I don't want these assholes to earn anymore money than they already have.
Well, there is this guy that gave Oreo's filled with toothpaste to a homeless guy and recorded him eating them. His empathetic comment? "well, now hid teeth are cleaner" (or sth similar, you get the point).
This other guy recorded himself insulting people, until he once got slapped. He then uploaded the video expecting empathy towards him...
That's what comes to my mind right now.

what are automatic looking weapons?
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:26:54 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Semi-automatic weapons that look like they could be fully automatic.
I think education can do a bit to decrease the whole uproar that's caused when one sees this type of thing.
The best and cheapest sporting and hunting rifles will be semi automatic versions of regular military rifles, this makes sense because the military of course wants the best most modern stuff, so the civilian rifles that are also modern will naturally look the same.
Second, there actually are fully automatic modern rifles that are legal for a regular civilian to own, ones that were registered before 1986 (about half a million in the US now). Some of these are the scary looking ones that are not too different from today's modern military rifles, including things in the AR and AK family. The reason, in my opinion, that we don't hear as much about fully automatic weapons being used in rampages, is because the people who would put their information on so many forms, jump through that many hoops, and pay that high a price with taxes, usually aren't the type that are inclined to turn to a criminal lifestyle.

Yeah, that doesn't change the fact that you're a douchebag for strapping one across your chest and walking around town trying get pulled over, then pulling the whole sovereign citizen routine.
I think we have to be cautious with this type of rhetoric. Either a person is doing something wrong or they're not. We wouldn't say a rape victim is a "douchebag for exposing your cleavage and walking around town trying to get raped." People that do provocative things or test extremes put themselves into the canary in the coalmine role. If they want to take away our freedoms they'll go after them first because more of the public will be okay with it. As long as the Westboroughs can spew their hate, I know we still have the first amendment; likewise, as long as these guys can walk around with scary guns, I know we still have the second.

Did you seriously just warn me to "be careful" of my rhetoric then proceed to compare the assholes I'm talking about to legitimate rape victims and true victim blaming? Yes, let's compare calling a YouTuber who's using open-carry to get a reaction out of people in the hopes that the cops will come so they can play the victim card when all they do is make sure their gun is up to code a douche to a victim of rape and legitimate victim blaming. Are you fucking kidding me? What rhetoric are you talking about? Have I suggested taking their guns away? I have zero problem with responsible Americans who've been through a reasonable amount of vetting owning guns (no violent crimes, no history of mental illness etc.) but if you're the type of asshole to strap a rifle across your chest, put on a face mask and walk into a police station while having a buddy film you to make a statement/get views/rabble rouse, you are the exact opposite of responsible and shouldn't have had a gun to begin with. If you need a bunch of neckbeards walking into Chilis with an AR-15 across their chests scaring the shit out of people inside to know there's still a second amendment that's fucking sad and the exact kind of rhetoric that scares the shit out of normal people who normally wouldn't have a problem with guns if they were discussed with even an ounce of self-awareness or sanity.
It's hard to view things objectively when we've been raised so strongly to view certain types of people one way. Once again, it's binary: either someone is doing something wrong, or they're not. I could walk around a Christian community with a black robe and a big pair of goat horns on my head with the intention to cause a rabble, or because it's comfy, or because that's just what I decided to do today; as long as I'm allowed to do it, it doesn't matter. I could park my car in a bad neighborhood with the windows rolled down and a huge chunk of cash on the seat. Now it gets stolen, what percentage of the blame is on me? 0% What percentage is on the person who stole it 100%.
That's the difference, objective right and wrong does not care who you are, it does not care what your intentions are. If the law says that I can carry a rifle then it doesn't matter if I'm a
bunch of neckbeards walking into Chilis with an AR-15
or a
type of asshole to strap a rifle across your chest
or a
responsible Americans who've been through a reasonable amount of vetting owning guns
The law is no respecter of persons, and just because you think a certain look or certain type of person is bad, does not give them any less rights than someone you personally approve of.

lol yes, my upbringing in middle Georgia where my entire family had more guns than I could count sure was a big part of my current view on guns. You don't know me bud.

Yeah, but that doesn't require a permit like most places in the US require to open carry. So are you insinuating its unreasonable for a cop to approach you for having an assault rifle across your back to make sure it's legal and you have the necessary paperwork? Also, my entire point is that would make you a douchebag not a criminal, so I don't know why you keep bringing up the law, there is no legal requirement for me to consider you a douche.
That's the difference, objective right and wrong does not care who you are, it does not care what your intentions are. If the law says that I can carry a rifle then it doesn't matter
Again, has nothing to do with my point. Never brought up the legality of it, just the fact that the examples I listed would make you a douche, I don't care if you're within your rights, as you said, the Westboro baptist church is legally allowed to say all the shit they have, doesn't make them any less douchey. So please for the love of god stop being up the law for no reason.
The law is no respecter of persons, and just because you think a certain look or certain type of person is bad, does not give them any less rights than someone you personally approve of.
We're not talking about the law you maniac, we're talking about people doing douchey things. I'm not infringing anyone's rights for thinking people acting immature with guns are douchebags. If you really care about gun rights you should probably distance yourself from people who are immature as fuck with them and treat them like toys to get their points across. I don't care what you say, there is no reason to bring an assault rifle into Chili's, or walk around town with one strapped across your chest or walk into a police station with one strapped across your chest with your face masked, it might be legal, but it's douchey and makes you look like a maniac, something you'd think rational people for gun rights would want to distance themselves from, but apparently that's too sensible. This is the reason people are so extreme one way or the other when it comes to gun issues, there is no middle ground or conscious discussion.
Your tone leads me to believe that you are set in one way of thinking and don't care to hear opposing points of view. Critical thinking means we are able to to consider someone else's view even if we don't agree with it in the end.
To leave one's personal echo-chamber and interact with all types is to increase one's fuller view of the world as it is, not as we want it to be, or personally think it should be.

I apologize in advance for not having links, but the two worst things that I can think of are both pranks.
The first one involves Keemstar giving a young boy an Xbox game and console, only to break it, and then smashing an ice cream cone in his face. Even though the first part of it sort of seems like it might be staged, I still find it disgusting. The fact that anyone would make a video even suggesting that content like that is funny is utterly repulsive to me.
The second one is the worst prank I've ever seen and I'm sure nearly everyone here has already seen it. It's the one where a guy pranks his girlfriend by throwing a dummy dressed like their son over a railing in their home. She genuinely believed that their son fell to his death while they were playing. It was heartbreaking to watch her completely convinced that her entire world just ended in such a tragic moment.
I cannot even begin to comprehend how someone could think that would be funny. As a parent, the absolute worst thing that can possibly happen in your life is for your child to die. It takes less than a second of that fear for the most unbearable, overwhelming horror and despair to consume your whole existence. The thought that he could find anything about his girlfriend's panic and terror over losing the most precious thing in her life funny is utterly abhorrent.
Pranks in general really disturb me. To deliberately cause someone else's terror, discomfort, or disgust for your own entertainment is pretty awful. Some pranks aren't so bad and are just silly, but most of them are terrible and can even cause people to develop anxiety disorders or PTSD.
When my brother and I were children, we pranked our mom with a scary mask and it seriously traumatized her for years. Ever since then I've been unable to find the majority of pranks humorous. Think before you play a prank on someone and ask yourself how funny you think it'd be if someone did it to you instead.
Actually it is smart not to post links, because you're basically promoting their bullshit that way. Secondly I agree with you!! Pranks that cause someone harm or break the law should be banned from YouTube.

Probably constantly talking shit about bigger YouTubers and using their faces in the thumbnail so they get more views, then ending the video with a "Just kidding! I actually love insert YouTube celebrity with easily 10x as many subscribers as the tool bag talking about them!"
Onision pisses me off in particular. The bastard pretends to be all high and mighty since he's a vegetarian, doesn't do a damned three minute google search before making assumptions about other YouTubers, is a giant hypocrite, and loves to hate on anyone that people like. He's probably one of those fuckers who says something like "The music of today is trash, only insert some random decade here was good! That was real music!"
God damn, and all the shit he likes to talk about YouTube gamers like Markiplier! Guess what? Mark works with the Make-A-Wish-Foundation, he's helped raise thousands for various charity's, and is just a pretty cool guy who manages to be happy even though he's lost his father to cancer, had a tumor, been in an abusive relationship, and literally had to live in his mom's basement at one point. But no, he's stupid and anyone who looks up to him is obviously some 12 year old.

I don't watch Markiplier because his vids aren't my thing, but he just seems like a cool guy in general.
He really is cool, and super sincere too. The guy must be doing something right when he can admire a banana for five minutes and get millions of views.
I think Markiplier is fantastic, he clearly is one of the most caring YouTubers out there. Didn't he recently have a heart attack too?
Also playing off another part of your comment, smaller YouTubers who put Dan and Phil in the thumbnail to get views. I am a big fan of Dan and Phil, but they get used by every YouTuber who wants views without a click bait title.
Yeah, some time back he had a minor heart attack from drinking a couple nights in a row. He explained the science behind it, but I'll try and condense it down from what I remember. Basically, some Koreans can't process alcohol properly because they lack an enzyme needed to do it, so drinking a couple beers every night for a couple nights can really hurt them. Since then, Mark has stopped drinking entirely, even though it meant one of his most beloved series, Drunken Minecraft, had to be ended.
As for Mark being caring, yeah, he's definitely one of the most genuine, if not the most genuine, YouTubers I've seen. Believe me, that statement carries a bit of weight when you've been there since RWJ was popular, Keyboard Cat was still a fresh meme, and YouTube wasn't overrun with compilations.
I'm also a fan of Dan and Phil, so I get angry whenever someone (Onision) uses Dan's face in particular in order to get views. He always has such lovely (creepy) things to say about Dan, then either disregards Phil completely or insults him. It reminds me of those schoolyard bullies who feel jealous of someone and have to resort to childish taunts in order to feel better about themselves.
Also, I love how much Onision loves to harp on other YouTubers for involving their personal lives with their channel, like the DeFranco fellow when he had his little son on camera, yet Onision feels no problem with sharing a medical story about how his child's testicles became red and swollen, how his wife was crying at the hospital, etc.

To this day, I still intentionally Rick Roll myself sometimes.
Hell, I was once on a trip and found Rick Astley himself would be in concert nearby. You bet your ass I attended that shit (that was in 2014).
Watching some youtuber play a video game because I wanted to see if the game was worth getting based on the gameplay. I watched part 1 which didn't get anywhere and part of part 4 and he kept saying thanks for subscribing insert_user_name while playing very slowly. The entire time I was thinking that people were only subscribing so that he calls out their name because he was really bad at the game (missed obvious cues and got lost multiple times) and made few comments since 90% of the time was spent thanking people and asking others to subscribe to his channel. It was the worst gaming video I've ever seen because it was literally a lengthy please subscribe to me video.
He didn't have very many views (few thousand tops) but it was the most annoying video I've ever tried to watch and the only reason I watched part of the series is because he was basically the only one with a lets play for that game.

It's pretty frustrating when you deliver great content and still have to rely on these cheap tactics to get more views. But they work, and that's the main issue. It's the same reason people ask for subs and comments, because by doing so, way more people actually sub/comment. Sometimes it's not easy to decide between staying away from shitty practices and actually getting more recognition for the work you're putting in.
That said, stay true to yourself, but don't hesitate to improve your marketing by using these techniques as far as you're comfortable with it. There will always be people criticizing your approach, but they're not the ones pumping hours and hours into their content. There's a good reason a lot of the big channels do this, though.

Sam Pepper comes to mind. This guy is a downright asshole. He is most infamously known for making a "prank" video where he kidnaps two of his friends and pretends to kill one of them, filming the reaction of the other and uploading it to YouTube under the title "KILLING BEST FRIEND" prank. He deleted it later but he's continued to do shit-tier pranks involving pretending to kill himself and sexually harassing women.
Reply girls. With cleavage. And now reaction videos with the full video.
You can't even justify it.
"I like this video, so I'm going to watch it and record myself overreacting to the videos and making a 10 minute video originally fucking 30 minutes because I keep pausing and talking about how funny it is."

Most of those videos are just people being assholes to other people for no reason or benefit. Especially when they "prank" the general public - it's not funny, you're just being a disruptive asshole.
People like seeing if other people live reacted to parts in the same manner they did. I can see the appeal for it. It's like begging to show your friend a scene and rejoicing when he acts the way you did.
But their reactions aren't genuine. They're already exaggerated or straight up fake.

WHEN THEIR HOW TO VIDEO IS THE GREATEST THING YOU'VE EVER SEEN AND 100% GUARANTEED TO WORK!!

Or those videos that show them just dragging the frames to make the animation play.
It'll get buried at this point but the Rhodes' twins posting a video about them coming out to their father. Recorded the phone call and everything. Taking advantage of a very private and personal and scary situation.
It still makes my blood boil to this day.
And what made it worse is that Ellen saw it and loved it and even gave them money.
All those top 10 channels that have super clickbait-y titles , e.g. , "10 lifehacks the government don't want you to know about" , and put a red circle on something random in the thumbnail
when someone makes a compilation of stolen videos and then has the audacity to ask me to subscribe and like the video. Also click bait thumbnail of girl in low cut shirt because even a lot of viewers are desperate.

Stretching 30 seconds of speculation into a 10:03 video full of clickbait, babbling, redundancy, and begging for likes and subs. GTA Youtubers(MrBossFTW, SernanDoe, LispyJimmy, and NoughtPointFourLive) are usually the worst for it. they were even called out for it by the "Rockstar leaker" on 4Chan.
I totally agree, lots of Youtubers are stretching their videos out longer and using to many words to say something because they get more "minutes watched" which gets them more exposure and higher on search results.
Making those stupid "reaction videos" where they watch someone else's content and stick their stupid face onto it. They don't even talk about it or say anything, it's just them watching it. It's the laziest thing ever and it drives me insane.
Basically anything Trisha Paytas has done. Being ignorant and later calling it trolling, saying she's vegan and eating chicken finger on camera, claiming to be lesbian but only talking about intercourse with men, outing her ex "boyfriend" and making 25 videos about the break up, doing "style hauls" promoting scamming websites but only wearing the things in the video, etc. I could go on forever.
Youtubers will be approached by product developers, and they pay them X amount to make a video about their product and endorse it.
Legally, they have to make it very clear that the video is sponsored, and that it's an advertisement. But so many youtubers don't. Why? Because many people won't click on a video that has [Sponsored Content] in the title or description.
And youtube doesn't give a single toss about these people breaking the law.
This doesn't mention anything to do with having to disclose you are being paid for an ad or not.
When they are talking about disclosure they are talking about the little bits of legal wording that some ads are required to have ( you know how when you see a ad for a prescription medication and it says , "this ad does not constitute medical advice, please speak to your doctor about xxxx and if it is suitable for you"
will admit i kinda do that but im more like "if you like what you see hit that like and want more hit subscribe" but i think last two vlogs i havent done that
This isn't done for views but I figured I'd point out Youtubers with high quality dubstep music intros with their username in flames and explosions only to then go to a low quality webcam camera shot of their face talking with crap audio
yeah i know that feel, about 90% of the time id tune out the moment i head dubstep intro, partially cause i aint got time for that and partially cause theres other tubers out there who jump right into the content
Misleading thumbnails or "Sexy Thumbnails" are one thing, and then there are the thumbnails with some youtubers cut out reaction (if even from the same video) with an extra layer of photoshop to really widen that smile, fill out the OH face or clarify the terror.
I realize this might be most common for horror game let's players but they seriously not alone and I'm glad I've seen a little less of it recently.
I think this may legit be one of my favorite threads.
When couples post videos with the title that has the words "broke up" or "break up" somewhere in it and then its just a story about how they broke up for like 10 minutes 46574532 years ago

Well you can still tell something is colourful by it being various shades of grey. Except someone colour blind wouldn't call their parrot colourful because they wouldn't be thinking of colour.

Lolwut? People who are colourblind don't see in black & white. Depending on the type of colourblindness they can't tell the difference between certain colours.
IIRC one of the more common ones is not being able to tell the difference between reds & greens. There's also people who see orange as purple.
It's also physically impossible to correct colourblindness with a pair of glasses.
Unbox therepy once did a giveaway vedio showing a truck full of iPhones and promising to giveaway all and never followed up. He almost gained 600000 subs. It was very lame of him since he is already a big youtuber
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PndXdtKnHmE he actually did cover that recently. I unsubbed a while ago because his videos seemed to be more "what looks somewhat cool" rather than "what is something that is actually useful"
Claims YouTube wants to kill his channel as a publicity stunt, and then later uses Fiverr to make several anti-semitic "humour" videos. Subsequently plays innocent when Google and Disney drop him.
That 'kill all jews' stunt pewdiepie did recently. It was just pure clickbait bullshit, 'Look at the crazy shit I can get people to do with my money everyone, I'm so hilarious', no other motive than pandering to 14 year olds and mental 14 year olds who still think that kind of content is somehow groundbreaking.

"hur dur i just made two guys who don't speak english hold up a sign calling for the genocide of an entire people, coincidentally a group of people who underwent one of the worst mass genocides in history less than 100 years ago. im so funny hur dur hur dur"
I know many Redditors will hate me for this, but idubbbz buying VIP tickets and traveling for an entire day just to go make an ass of himself while trying to tear down some random girl. I have no clue why I watched that whole video; both of them were horribly in the wrong. YouTube drama is so stupid.
She wasn't some random girl though, she told her millions of followers that he should kill himself for the saying the n word. He than calls her out because she also used it and her defense was that she was young and thought it meant something else.
His response if you ask me was pretty genius, calling idubbbz out and not even knowing what he looks like.
Yeah, the girl was annoying and wrong and idubbbz was juvenile and wrong. Two wrongs don't make a right, instead it's more like taking two turds and smashing them together to get an even bigger turd.
No what he did wasn't funny but him doing that prompted the actual humor.

so thats a joke but the pranks in the hood videos are inexcusable, right?
Edit: Also, that's not even the order of events; she called him out for using the word flagrantly and without any care in many videos (which he rightfully should be called out for) and then added on the whole wished he died thing. This was all online. Then idubbbz dug into her past and traveled and pulled that unfunny juvenile bullshit that just made him stoop down to her level (if not lower). They're both fucking pathetic.

The same girl said she ODed on benedryl and said it was like LSD she never really said no to it. ihated her before the drama she blows up a hang nail to begin g how she got stabbed
He stooped lower by trying to explain away his use of a word he shouldn't be using at all. That's what spineless people do and he proved that he's even lower than her via that video. I'm not saying she's a saint, but what he did was pathetic and incredibly low.
He really didn't "explain away" anything. He briefly touched on the fact that he uses it as a joke, yeah, but only to make a point that she is no better because she used it in a harsh way, i.e., "you fucking n-word"
The entire point of the video was: she had no right to tell him to kill himself and to hope he breaks his legs over the use of a word she has also used in a very negative context. He knew if he said it in front of her that she'd make a video. He wanted to expose her.
Sure, he could've ignored her original tweets and streams, but that's not who he is. Doesn't make him a shit person for responding to her and exposing her hypocrisy.

she claims, she didnt know what the word meant, but in footage of where she does say it in a negative context, she would clearly have to know what it means
Yeah, no, driving multiple hours and going up to someone and saying the n-word to them to get a reaction out of them isn't hilarious, it's pathetic as fuck and the fact that so many Redditors defend him and think the whole ordeal was, "hilarious," is just sad.
It's not like he said it was funny, he said in the video that he didn't find it funny and (iirc) that he knows that people will find it funny and defend it, even when it wasn't.

It was her reaction and the consequences of her over the top reaction that was hilarious. He wasn't saying the n word to some random person. She started it by calling him out for using the n word while being a hypocrite. As for him driving up there and wasting time and money it was obviously worth since the amount of overwhelming positive feedback he got from it. So he probably more than made up for that multiple hour drive.

To be fair, even he said the joke wasn't funny, but her reaction was what made it funny, and that it blew up because she made it a big deal. His words, not mine. It's not what he did that was funny, it's what she did in response and the shit storm that ensued that was funny
I like idubbz but fuck that video was so cringey. She was clearly terrible and he managed to bring himself to her same level by being equally douchey. Plus he contradicts himself too often on using the n word, it's either all not okay or all okay then goes on to explain many times where it isn't okay.

The thing is you'd be right if Tana had done what ldubbbz in the Content Cop said she should have done and called him out on how much of an ass he was being. But instead she validated everyone of his points against her when she overreacted and made a video blowing the situation our of proportion. Content Cop is about revealing the bullshit that people do to get views usually at the expense or manipulation of others. Ian took a big risk by doing what he did. Imagine if Tana had stayed calm, called him out, and released that video. Ian would be pretty done. Sure youtube drama and all that, but Ian actually put his reputation on the line for that bit, which is more than anyone else is usually willing to do for content/drama.
While I agree that it is dumb, I would still like to point out that the piercing wouldn't be on their body for the rest of their life. They could take that out and the piercing would close up. Of course, doing that would be a dumb waste of money, but I guess for some those sweet views are worth it. XD
Paid $5 for two Indian guys who didn't understand English to hold up a sign that said "Death to All Jews" just to see if they would do it. The Indian guys got fired from their jobs for doing this (I think they eventually got them back after they apologized). The YouTuber lost two separate multi-million dollar deals because of this, one with Disney and one with YouTube, along with a lot of ad revenue from Google.
You may have heard of this YouTuber, his name is PewDiePie.
[deleted] ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 02:02:58 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think most people agree that PewDiePie isn't an anti-semite. He just thought it was funny, and to a lot of people it probably was. It's not about that, though. It's about potentially ostracizing an entire group of people whether you mean to or not. Especially when you're supposed to be representing family-friendly and inclusive companies.
He's free to say whatever he wants, of course, but I don't blame YouTube and Disney for dropping him.

He's definitely not, and Disney knew that going in. He's "edgy" and that's why they picked him up... the kids love him. Swearing, poop, sex, etc... all innocent humor. But racism crosses the line.
I agree, he will probably be happier without the contracts, or he will get a contract with someone who will let him say those things.

I'm sure PewDiePie will do just fine, he didn't need maker or Disney but the dropping was PR.

PewDiePie did nothing legally wrong but obviously he did something morally wrong considering how he "ironically" told some poor Indian guys to hold up a sign advocating genocide. Many people found this very offensive and since PewDiePie likes to use "ironic" Nazi imagery in his videos (Hitler's speeches etc) people started calling him an anti-Semite. Now I don't believe he is one but if you're somebody who doesn't watch him a lot it's easy to see how you can make that misconception. It is his job as a new age comedian therefore to put some damn thought into his jokes, and he said as much in his apology video.
As stated before he can do whatever he wants but he shall suffer the consequences of those decisions.
If you want to go around screaming anti Semitic jokes the constitution bars congress from stopping you, but guess what it doesn't bar a private company from banning you or your job from firing you or anything else. If you're a bigot you'll suffer the consequences. The silent minority may have been validated by this election and the idiotic democrats who didn't vote but I sincerely hope they will learn their lessons one by one. Let PewDiePie be an example that just because it's a "joke" doesn't make it consequence free.

There's that one woman who promised to release her sex tape at 1 million subs
A pretty successful speedrunner named Narcissa (better known as Cosmo) had a weird mental breakdown recently and we were left with this video (my nomination) in which she whines in a baby voice in an attempt to gain Patreon support, and also this video talking about how she doesn't want to get a job and would rather live off donations.
I mean, I almost hesitate to post this, as I know this is the Internet, and shitty people will say shitty things. Honestly, I just hope she gets the psychological help she obviously needs. It came as a shock to me, though. I really respected this person until recently, and it's really sad to see this happen to someone like that.
I really hate when they take something like (using a recent example) Civilization VI, where the official channel will release a video showing a leader and their unique abilities, and then the YouTuber will upload a video showing the exact same footage and saying the exact same stuff like they're some genius for knowing about it.
There's a Youtuber named Sawyer Hartman whose does daily vlogs and nearly EVERY day he click bait titles a video and uses a click bait image that hints towards his girlfriend breaking up with him, or someone being hurt, or his girlfriend is pregnant or some shit like that. Like literally titles his videos 'I'm going to be a dad!' And then it's like a joke or something.

He may have been a Youtuber, but I think he was a twitch streamer - ZiloanOP. This guy was wheelchair bound after an accident or something like that. So he started to do twitch streams of games and shit like that. People donated a good bit of money to him to help him get a new wheelchair and other things.
He was miraculously healed while streaming one day!

Is basically making money off of failing to play video games and not learning from them how to play them correctly, instead berating and blaming the developers repeatedly
States that anyone who calls him out is a "hater" even if they're providing genuine feedback in order for how to improve his channel or get past a part in a video.
Will maliciously berate and degrade opponents in fighting games when he's winning, only to complain and blame the game for his defeat when he is promptly served the next match.
Adamantly refuses to adapt and change his content, stating "It's my unique style" or some other jargon that in no way excuses his behaviour. This was pushed to the extreme with his late adoptions of capture cards and face cams for his gameplay, when they had been the industry standard for years.
Blames his fan base immediately when his views begin to decrease, saying they aren't giving him enough money or aren't watching enough of his videos to support his lifestyle (collecting figurines and buying needless shit.)
Like clockwork will make a video every 6 months stating "views are down and idk what to do" even though this is standard fair on YouTube for how views go (summer is obviously more dry and right after Christmas is a slow point in comparison as well).
Constantly promises to be positive each and every year, only to return to his argumentative and surly demeanour a few months later
Has alienated his former friends, former collaborators, and multiple other people for his rude comments and lack of social filter about private matters. These include making a video about a close friend dying (which was monetized) and saying his parents are "fucking stupid" on stream for everyone to hear
Has rose to such infamy in the gaming community he has become a laughing stock, with a multitude of compilations (which he is trying to capitalize on by making his "own brand of them" even though previously he stated these videos make him fearful he will be harassed or even murdered by those making them) being made of his play throughs known as "This is how you don't Play:", and various other YouTubers including Two Best Friends Play, PewDiePie, ReviewTechUSA, TotalBiscuit, and many more lampooning not only his inability to learn from and play various video games, but his overall demeanour as well.
The King of Hate everyone.
EDIT: Thought of some more:

I once had to babysit my cousin and all he did for the full fucking hour was watch these videos. Occasionally he'd turn to me to see if I was laughing, and I'd crack a fake laugh to appease him, but I was slowly dying inside.
Also, he is like 8 years old, so I'd assume that is the usual audience for these disastrously shitty Youtube channels.
Go to people's channels and leave comments saying "great video! I really enjoyed it" without actually watching to get people to check out their channel.

I used to record with some "Minecraft YouTubers" a few years ago, they'd only upload videos if they won the game they were in and most of the time would "hire" people with in-game cash to help them win. After that they'd make really shitty edits, upload it to youtube with a unrelevant title and thumbnail and claim there's a giveaway at "x thousand subs". One day I killed them repeatedly in-game while I was recording then recorded them kicking me from the skype call and msging me saying that I was a cunt and then I got blocked. I uploaded it "exposing them" and they only responded with a 10 minute long video filled with ads telling their thousands of sub bots that I was a cunt and needed to kill myself. People on YT are cunts, especially minecraft clickbaiters
Just search Onision on youtube and you should get some good examples.

I know it's the norm for people to bitch about PewDiePie. But seriously, half the stuff he does these days is pathetic and desperate. His content had significantly improved but nowadays with the 'Beastmaster 64', fake piss drinking and all the other dumb, potentially offensive shit he does. Like seriously, come on man, who makes holocaust jokes so frequently and light-heartedly, it's just inappropriate.
When a rapper/singer drops a single and a youtuber/singer/rapper will upload their own song with a thumbnail of the artist or artwork released with a single and a title of the song they're pretending to be. Then they get mad when you call them out. Fuck you.

GTAV Youtubes click baiting with anything, even fake GTA6 info
Strip FIFA, AKA using your gf/hired work or even your sister for views
CS:GO YouTubers being very vague about gambling sites and their ownership/relationship
COD youtubers using their subs to get good gameplay(having them join the other team to feed them kills. Also CODZ wise, clickbaiting/lying about fake Easter eggs on maps
Minecraft youtubers abusing their younger audiences for money, or for sexual favours
And finally, Overwatch youtubers using NSFW fan art for click bait and not providing source.
Didn't see anyone else post this... but how about- ummm. Secretly take your wife's pee while she was sleeping and do a pregnancy test?! Then after it went viral, it ends in a miscarriage!!!! That was so bizarre!!
I never really understood Youtube until I started uploading Let's plays. As a viewer, you wonder why people would ever go to such lengths to promote their channel, but as a maker putting your time, effort, and energy into it only to be constantly disappointed nobody is watching, you finally get where the desperation comes from. Some people respond to it with perserverance and putting in more effort, others drop their channels, and then you get the ones who take things to the madness place.

The most insulting and offensive thing a YouTuber can do, is when a celebrity dies, or former youtuber (JewWario is an example) and make a monetized video of themselves crying, just jamming it up, and make money from the video, when really, they didn't actually care about the person's content, or know them in person. Just looking up JewWario in YouTube gets you flooded with videos like that. It's disgusting.
How has no one mentioned the handful of girls who did shit like claiming they'd release nude photos if they reached a certain amount of subscribers, or the new one where she said she'll release a sex tape if enough people subscribe. It's not only pathetic that you have to sell your body since you'd never grab anyone's attention otherwise, but it's also pretty stupid if you ask me. No one is going to watch their videos it's a giant waste of time. Just do porn and make an easy paycheck ffs.
That guy who started yet loudly in Arabic on an airplane and started recording when they kicked him off, saying "So you're kicking me off because I'm speaking Arabic?" (witnesses claimed that he was causing a commotion on the airplane and most mentioned nothing about Arabic)
Those prank videos between couples that are one sided. I'm okay when both sides are pranking each other, but there are some videos out there where it looks like only one side, usually the guy, is taking it too far that it almost looks like abuse. Like do you really need to go so low to make your SO break down and cry in front of hella ppl just so you can get more views and likes? like wtf
In Spain lately we have a bunch of idiots doing horrible things to random people. For example, there was this guy who bought some oreo, changed the oreo cream with toothpaste, and he went to a homeless guy and he gave them to him. Because it's a prank haha so funny...
The thing is that they get famous, and that's what they want...

Eh. This one prankster who pranked his friend by pretending to brutally kidnap him and killing said person's friend who he was hanging out with at the time. Of course, the guy who got 'killed' (fake gun to the head and sound of shot resonating) was in on it, but the friend had no idea. So he was tied to a chair and had to watch his buddy get shot in the head. Obviously he was traumatized and the prankster received a whole shitload of deserved backlash. It was a fucking cruel thing to do.

I found most of the "does this thing really work" videos somewhat enlightening. Then she got even more into the makeup and fashion unboxing and tutorials...I mean...shopkins? She's like 30-something. Aside from all the filler crap (and now begging for likes) she seems like a person with a pretty positive message. (Also, who wouldn't be that hyper when your brand is fueled by sweet tea and giant gulps?)
Who ever even buys the "As seen on TV" items anyways? I'm just speaking on behalf of someone who has been subscribed to her since she just started YouTube.
There is a huge difference from back then and now like I understand if someone changes a little but she like did a 180. She used to talk about grave yards and ghosts and then she found out that there was a large audience for makeup people and she totally switched her audience geared to children because she knew that she could get more followers that way.
Like she used to be calm and a normal human being and now she just over sells everything, it's annoying.

I honestly don't get how people still fall for this.
I'm not sure if many people know about this but a popular personality on YouTube, Ray William Johnson. He had a video of a deer attacking a dog, it was disturbing to watch but for those that don't know Ray, he reviews videos in a comedic format. Now the video causes outrage on his channel and comment section and the video gets 'disliked' to oblivion and for any YouTuber this is bad reputation. So what does he do? He disables the comment section, renames the title of the video to "dislike this video" to save his ass from humiliation and bad reputation, and he made it seem like he commanded his followers to do as he says.

Been scrolling through comments for an hour hit the bottom and it says show remaining 3600 comments
Back in the day gamers like whiteboy7thst would do giveaways for steam gift cards at random and other shit but you HAD to like and comment his videos. He would then list the videos to random categories like outdoors or kids and rake in views by being the top of categories, and get paid from the advertising on his videos. He got literally millions of subs this way, then put out a "I'm sorry" video after once YouTube changed their whole layout so this shit couldn't happen anymore. Pathetic. Was a huge thing in the YouTube world in like 2010, damn I feel old.
Bit late here, but clickbaiting of any kind is really annoying.
Lostnunbound is a guy who recently had all his misdeeds exposed by other youtubers (there's lots of stuff but I'll focus on the clickbaiting part).
LNU does lots of basketball related videos. If you watch them you can tell they're aimed at younger kids.
Anyway, one example off the top of my head was this video where he said 'I MET KEVIN DURANT' as the title. The thumbnail was a picture of Kevin Durant facing towards the camera.
Turns out what actually happened in the video was he walked up to a random trash can, calls it Kevin Durant, and has a pretend conversation with it.
Wtf?
Someone got kicked off a plane for allegedly only speaking Arabic, when in reality, he was speaking Arabic, and pumping his fist in the air, sitting back down, and then repeating it 10 seconds later a couple more times. Long story short, he got kicked off for bizarre behavior, not for speaking Arabic

Here in Holland we have a guy who harrasses people in his city, just for views. One time there was a lady from the town council on television (the show is called 'Pauw') where she wanted to talk to some of the guys and make them stop all their bs. The main reason for them was that there was no hangout-area for the boys (well, there was, but they destroyed it). A couple of videos later the Youtuber ran into her in the town and recorded harrassing her too. The sad part is, he gets a ton of views for doing this.. Damn I have a deep hatred for those guys and I hope there is a special place in hell for them.

Not exactly a YouTuber, but Matt Hardy (Former WWE Wrestler) once posted a suicide note online via a YouTube video. This was just weeks after he was arrested for a DUI in which he caused an accident and got him fired from TNA (A rival wrestling company), so it was pretty believable when he uploaded the video.
It turned out it was just a stunt to draw attention, and that his "death" was just a big lame "I am now reborn" thing. The backlash he received was enormous, even his own friends and family condemning his actions.
Now don't get me wrong, I've watched and enjoyed many Vine compilations -- it's convenient for someone who doesn't use the app, especially if you want to watch a lot of vines from a particular vine star. There were also vine compilations for specific memes/trends, which is pretty much the least enjoyable way to consume a meme and the fastest way to get sick of it altogether, but convenient if you were looking for a particular edit that you couldn't find by itself. I recovered a beloved morsel that way -- the Dragonforce Worm vine.
But it got to the point where these things were getting churned out like there's no tomorrow. "dank memes vine compilation" -- search a phrase like that and you'll get thousands of videos, most of them crap.
But all that pales in comparison to the webm compilations.
For those who don't know, a webm is a relatively new, efficient compressed video format; great for what would normally be either an mp4 or a gif, but with a fraction the filesize. For comparison, imagine a world where the only image format is bitmap, and suddenly the jpeg is invented. Gfycat uses them, imgur uses a proprietary version that's basically the same called gifv, and notably 4chan began using them as well. Finally, you can post gameplay clips on /v/ (as long as they're muted), and post high-quality video clips to /gif/ and /wsg/ (WITH SOUND!). Embedding them into posts was a lot more convenient than posting youtube links and the like, so some people began ripping youtube videos and converting them to webm in order to post them. Mostly harmless stuff really, it's not like you're going to be stealing anyone's ad revenue on an imageboard.
But then other people started snagging all the webms they could off of 4chan, stringing them together into webm compilations, and uploading them to youtube. Obviously, a lot of the aforementioned youtube videos were now getting jammed into these compilations. It's essentially stolen content, and like those "dank memes vine compilations," it's all there to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

A lot of things. Most popular YouTube channels are actually trash and clickbait infested. The ones that are of higher quality don't have that many views.
I can't believe nobody has mentioned the girl who got famous for posting a vid of her eating her own blood-soaked tampon. Got criticised for it. Then started a relationship with the guy that got famous for posting a vid of him eating his own shit. So cliche.
Surprised I haven't seen this yet, or its not much much higher. But literally sexually assaulting women. There's a few """"""prank"""""" channels that the guys will literally sexually assault women, often in public, for fucking views. Also probably because they want some bullshit excuse to assault and harass women. Seriously these fucks are the most disgusting and scummy people I've seen on YouTube.

When YouTubers title their video 'QUITTING YOUTUBE!'
Video of guy filming a protest at a LGB rally. One dude doesnt have any real facts to argue his point so instead he decides to spit in the other guy's face and then run into the crowd of protesters saying that the guy chasing him was trying to assault him because he is transgender. His sexuality was never brought up in the initial conversation, the conversation itself wasnt even about gender, it was about why they chose their own selective political party. The piece of shit just realized he didnt have any actual facts to back up his viewpoints, threw a tantrum like 6 yr old and then proceeded to spit on the person he was arguing with.
I always go back to the Fine Bros and them trying to monopolize reaction videos. I get what they were doing but bad idea and it backfired too, they lost hundreds of thousands of subscribers.
Generally, making a title or thumbnail that's clickbait. Happens a lot.
Moved their content behind a paywall and only put half ass versions of the real video on YouTube with tons of begging to check out their paywall content.
if your talking about youtube red i used to find that idea anoying but because there actually getting more than what you can get as a regular dude on youtube and getting a bit more promotion its actually not that bad

i remember that, queet funny cause i was sat on about 200 and something subs when it happened and just sat there, they were going down like hell and i just went "i may not be big but at least im staying at where i am unlike finebros"
I spent way too long making a music video about how sweet pickles suck. It culminated in me dressing like Dr. Phil and having my mom film my dad waterboarding me with pickle juice.
That thing pewdiepie did to get more subs was pretty bad. He said he'd shut down his account if he got a certain amount of sub's. He shut down an alt account. It was clearly done for subs
he did technically do as prommised cause he said hed close his account, didnt specify which one

There is currently a trend in the beauty community where you put your beauty sponge inside a condom and use that to put on you foundation/concealer/contour. It's super gross and latex is probably one of the worst materials to try to apply makeup with. Makes my skin crawl every time I see those videos pop up since they're marketed to teenagers who think condoms are hilarious.
Any YouTuber who uses "It's just a prank, bro!" to justify fucking with other people.

I've basically become really jaded with YouTube as a whole. You get stuff like NoClip which is this really high quality, journalistic shit that obviously has a ton of work and thought put into it. It's longform, weighty games journalism in video form.
You see this rare, high quality content and it makes you realise that the rest of YouTube is lazy, derivative shit. You start wishing for more of that high-quality, thought-provoking stuff but you get:
"Wow, it's a guy playing a game and describing/laughing at the thing that just happened."
"Wow, a react video." (this is the most egregious to me. It's devoid of creativity)

Not for views, but when a friend on ones of hellbent's Saturday night streams. More or less admitted that he watched CP on 4chan for god knows why?, spent on later streams getting butthurt when people would jokingly roast him & took a Chris chan joke seriously.
Now he doesn't show up anymore because the channel owner more or less told him get lost behind scenes.
When the thumbnail of a video has something you really want to see but the video doesn't have it in at all so you leave feeling betrayed.

That girl who was saved from drowning and then sued the guy claiming she, "raped" her and has basically documented the whole thing on Youtube.
Then there is the other girl who claimed it should be legal to have hank panky with dogs.
THEN there's the latest girl who said if she hits 1,000,000 subscribers on YouTube she'll make a sex tape with her boyfriend.
I just, I just can't. My brain, it hurts too much.
I'd say most of the shit that Onision has done, really. He over-publicises his train-wreck of a life and doesn't care about those caught in the crossfire. There's the time he made a video saying his ex-girlfriend (or ex-wife?) had sepsis, exposed that she lied, discussed intimate details of his mess of a mรฉnage ร trois, the issues of his marriage, how he beat the shit out of his dad, from rating fucking teenage girls on a scale of 1 to 10... The list goes on.

A certain mindcracker likes to spoil games in their titles and tweets, so the game is spoiled for you EVEN if you don't watch that series, or just have them followed on Twitter.
Also, clickbait isn't cool, neither is avoiding or skirting around the question, like Philip Defranco says that he can run off his business entirely, that he doesn't need to advertise on his channel, but then he uses clickbait in his titles to get the YouTube algorithm to put his videos on top, and says that it's neccessary to use it?
This seriously turned me off from h3. They went full victim complex for a while. These people ignore real issues and pretend SJWs are anything more than a Tumblr fad. Yes, some people get out of hand but at least most are trying to do the right thing for marginalized groups of people. Is that so evil?
That said, yes, Zarna can fuck herself.

I remember that guy who recorded a bunch of impressionists singing a song, and then lip-synced to it in order to pretend that he had any talent.
Then, after the video went viral, he was just like "lol nope". I've never seen anyone turn against a guy so quickly; everyone was like "Fuck you" after that.
Hiring two Middle Easterners on a website that you can pay $5 and have a stranger do something to wave a sign around saying "Death to all Jews" so you can make a reaction video about it.

It always kinda bothered me that girl on youtube who plays guitar with the massive tits has an enormous following. Jess Greenberg I believe her name is. She's a decent singer and guitar player but the whole thing with her tits out for views rubs me the wrong way. I'm a musician myself and I get that sex sells. But I feel like having your tits out just shows you lack integrity and are getting views just from horny dudes, not for your talent.
This all just my opinion. Feel free to disagree. This chick's success on youtube just always bothered me.

Jontron says a lot of stuff on twitter that tends to be less politically correct than most of his peers. Most recently, he was complaining about some protestor. Then he spends the next few days taking the piss out of himself and critics taking him out of context. The praising nazis thing is pretty much just Poe's law.

He definitely has come out against SJW stuff, but did not praise Nazi's. Also, he didn't start out doing let's plays, he started as a popular game reviewer before starting game grumps with ego raptor. While it hasn't been made public as to why he left, towards the end of his time on game-grumps he appeared to be dissatisfied with the creative stagnation that the channel created.
He isn't desperate, his channel has 3 million subs, and nearly every one of his videos has over a million views. And quite a few of them get 3-12 million views. Outside of the world of low effort shat out lets plays he creates well crafted and humorous content.
Jontron is an interesting beast. He's in it for the comedy. He's from a time and place of the internet where being audacious is funny. His comedy idols are Tim and Eric for fuck's sake. It's why he's buds with lots of old Newgrounds animators. His transition into Game Grumps gained him a much larger audience, but also a younger audience. Game Grumps was popular with 18-20 somethings but also very popular with kids. These kids are growing up and reaching their teenage years in a time where it's cool to be sensitive and offended. The teenage tumblr crowd. They're impossible to avoid. So he gained an audience of fans that would turn on him for calling the PS4's game streaming service retarded. There's been like four different twitter shitstorms surrounding innocuous things Jon has said on twitter in the past few years. Hell, you're calling him a nazi because he went on a Sargon of Akkad livestream because he had experience with twitter shitstorms. And oops, that appearance caused another shitstorm.
So what do you do after being the center of made up controversy as a comedian? Do you apologize and stop trying to be funny or do you play everyone and make people laugh at others' reactions? The fact that people are calling him a nazi is funny as hell so I'm glad he's playing it up.

I can't believe someone with an audience and a funny youtube show is killing jews in their basement. I hear he makes the bird pull the level that releases the gas.

I think you're blowing what he said entirely out of proportion.
I remember seeing a video of a "makeup guru." She made a makeup tutorial that was "inspired" by some sort of salad, I think it was chicken. She was sponsored by I think either Subway or Denny's. The first few minutes were of her gushing about how much she loves this salad and how today's look is inspired by her favorite food or something.
I think you're talking about Blair Fowler (juicystar07 on YouTube)? She did a video titled something like "Life on a Budget" where she mentioned some $7 salad from Wendy's that she claimed to buy 6 days a week, as a suggestion for people to stay healthy on a budget. She talked about the salad/Wendy's for a solid 4 minutes and kept mentioning it because her red lipstick "reminded her of the beautiful colors of the tomatoes" or some BS. She also said things like, "it doesn't even matter if you jump in the pool with this hat, because it was only $20 and it's not like it was a designer hat or something!"
She got soooo much shit for that video. I have to admit that I really like Blair and have followed her for years, but that video was ridiculous.
$20 for a hat? I hope that hat makes you instantly cooler for that price. I looked her up on YouTube but she wasn't the one. I think the one I was talking about was called krazyray or something like that, mainly remember her filming outside. She compared her nail colors to the salad which I thought was both cringe and hilarious lol
Oh yeah, there is a Youtuber with a username like that, but I don't watch her. I looked it up and her video was also about a Wendy's salad and was posted around the same time Blair's was, although Blair's is much more rambly... I guess Wendy's paid a bunch of beauty gurus to talk about the salads, lol.
Pretending to blow up their child to "prank" their girlfriend.

Going into the comments. Any other site and I'd respect all posters who go below the line but YouTube comments ... you'd have to be really, really desperate.
There's this guy that made a parody series and then uploaded a video per day for the entire first 25 days of December, trying to rely on the upload dates to be a buzzin' thing.
This guy is a certified twat. His face was made for punching. I seriously think one day somebody is gonna say, "Screw this job, I'm kicking that motherfuckers ass" and serves justice on this guy.
In Argentina a guy named yao Cabrera faked a stabbing in his left side of his back, people eventually find out that he was faking it and then posted a video saying it was a social experiment
Not exactly for views but some YouTubers will put 4+ minutes of blank video at the end of the main video just to hit the 10 minute mark. Longer videos monetize better.

I recall a channel where the owner of it insisted they had Dissociative Identity Disorder. All the different 'alters' would make videos on it talking about their edgy backgrounds and personality traits or just laughing or crying. I think it was a cry for attention, but it was just sad.
I guess this isn't specifically for views, but plastering a giant paragraph at the end of all his videos about how his most viewed videos are being targetted by mass fake youtube dislike accounts and paid shills, to keep his videos from the front page, and his real fans need to vote with their likes.
Right, it's not cause you make middling clickbait game videos like every other youtuber now. It's cause some unsubstantiated but totally real entity is targetting you specifically.
Why improve your content when you can just blame your faults on trolls?
Cannot find it now, but a guy said he could eat sixty Cadbury's creme eggs in sixty minutes, and livestreamed the big event.
He got to about six or so, then had to be sick, attempted to eat another one, couldn't face it without retching, then gave up to a flood of mockery which culminated in him glumly agreeing to put his shoes on his head.
In the early YouTube days sexually attractive girls would wait for a hit youtubers video to come out and basically do a recap of that video showing a little extra skin.

Gimmick videos with too much foreplay.
For example, the 1000 degree knife videos. I click on that cus I want to see shit burn but instead I have to see the knife, see the lighter, see the knife heating up, see what's being burned and then I finally fucking see shit burn. And like two much foreplay in sex, it always disappoints. Similar with those crushy press vids.
It seems like the youtuber is trying to up their stats for minutes watched and its total bs manipulation.
Also in terms of whoring for views, those 1000 degree knife vids are pretty cancer.

Clickbait titles annoy me. Like when they make it sound like their partner is breaking up with them. Just don't. If you vlog and your partner is part of your channel and you broke up okay. Maybe talk about it a lil. But don't make it the whole video.

that marina joyce thing was fucking cancer, it was so blatantly a publicity stunt the way she was acting and just goes to show the sheer lack of basic human intelligence in the youtube community
Anything done by Keemstar. I don't understand why no one thought it was weird he was such good friends with leafy. Guy is like 15 years older, even though he acts like he's 16. Can't stand him. And he ruined baited podcast
Type in 'Storytime' into YouTube and pretty much any of the shit that pops up.
Top video is titled 'MY PARENTS TORTURED ME AS A CHILD'. It is a 13 minute video about how she sucked her thumb as a child and how her parents tried to gently stop her from doing it [such as wrapping tape around her thumb, that nasty shit you dip your fingers in to stop you biting your nails etc].

The GLITCH videos for popular games that arent actually glitches. I remember a few days ago I saw one for Overwatch called something like "OVERWATCH, DRIVE THE CARS IN OASIS (GLITCH), NOT A GLITCH).
Seems like most the big Battlefield youtubers post videos like "NEW DLC WEAPONS!" Then talk for 10 mins about a different topic, then 1 min about DLC weapons they'd like to see in the game.

All you can do is be aware. If it's viral in nature, if the reddit account is young / "aged" (Meaning low activity but old enough to get past automod antispam age gates), similar on the youtube side, not a lot of videos, not a lot in common, low subscriber / views and monetized videos, the video was just posted recently: you have a spammer.
Of course, because I'm late to this thread, nobody's going to see this.
Adding pointless things into the video i.e. a black screen at the end, elongating slides, or repeating things a bunch just to make the video 10:01 long so they can have more adds on the video.
Those "trading a paperclip for a car," video when they really just got 2 keychains and a pen, then went to a store and asked "do you want to trade this stuff for a car?"
My brother used to have a YouTube channel back in the day. Once he played chess with his friend and every time they made a move they had to eat a peep. They ended up throwing up. Another time that they hadn't posted a video in a while, they apologized to their 5 subscribers by eating a habanero raw. Again, they threw up.
Has anyone mentioned LaBeast or? I think he genuinely enjoys torturing himself with the ridiculous shit he eats and does, it's come full circle from pathetic to just fascinating.
Any kind of eating, drinking or snorting challenge.

Some time ago, there was a trend on Youtube consisting of doing videos called "100 layers of [stuff]". It started with a woman putting 100 layers of nail polish on her nails. It was quickly ollowed by other makeup youtubers doing 100 layers of foundations or lipsticks? All of that was useless but okay. Then it escalated really quickly to more hardcore stupid (and actually dangerous) shit, like putting 100 layers of hot candle wax on one's face.

I'm too lazy to see if someone said this before, but Pewdiepie's recent videos. This include him saying he'll delete his channel at 50mil subs and him shooting his 50mil sub play button.
There was a twitch streamer who pretended he was wheel chair bound. On live stream sometime he forgot he was in character and just stood up and walked off screen like he was healed by some preacher.
Putting "Official" or "Vevo" or "1080 HD" in the name of the video or their channel even when obviously it's not any of them (example: xxgamerzzVEVO).
And all of dramaalert.
My brother once watched this video of some kids who couldn't be more than 13 sneaking into a Target after it had closed and they hung out in there all night...it was so stupid and cringey...
I like to look at a lot of make up reviews/tutorials. Lately lots of beauty gurus have been doing stupid "life hacks" to seem innovative, but most just seem like desperate grabs for views.

In wrestling (probably the same for other events) and it will be WWE 2016 SUMMERSLAM PPV JOHN CENA VS AJ STYLES and the thumbnail is a still from the actual event.

That time FouseyTube (who is a fuckhead in general) was getting shit from other content creators so he made a video where he visited a child sick with cancer who wanted to see him and he titled it "My last fight"

Tana Mongeau, I hated her obvious exaggerations/flat out lies in her videos before idubbbz made his Content Cop on her but that at least opened people's eyes to her bullshit.
Showing something hot in thumbnail but not even showing much of it or just having it as click bait. What the fine bros did was bad as well. Also story time youtubers, because lets be honest all of them over exaggerate shit and blow it out of proportion.
IIRC the Fine Bros made react videos for Amanda Todd's pre-suicide video and the Sandy Hook shooting, but more egregiously, they also added annotations linking to other react videos and monetized both vids. This was years before the whole React World controversy and yet barely anyone brought this up.
Not YouTube but on Twitch. I've seen a chick that was painting hearts on her face with lipstick just chilling in GTA 5 online. Not doing anything in game. She had a very Janis from Friends kind of voice and she kept saying like "Yooou guyyz, you guyzzz look at my face!!" (insert nauseating ear bleeding laugh here) She had the most views and was the first one on the list. It was like a train wreck, a pittyful, ear drum bleeding, train wreck. I noped outta there.

He would get drunk in live videos, to get donations, even shake his naked ass, etc.
Spending 1-3 minutes explaining why they haven't uploaded in the past x days. It's especially eyerolling when this is literally the first time you ever see this person's videos.
This thread is a giant faq on ethically what not to do to garner youtube views but also a great tutorial to a million+ youtube subs if you lack any sort of morals and or creativity
One of the most pathetic things I've saw on Youtube are the Elsa and Spiderman videos. Like where 'Elsa' is pregnant or has been captured or has been under some sort of spell and Spiderman is just doing some crazy shit... All I see are some grown adults in Spiderman and Elsa costumes (which I can fully see Spiderman's 'junk') running around in horrible green screen.

There is one thing that I hate the most when small YouTubers do for views, they will go to to a popular YouTubers video either relate to their own contents or sometime not even related and comments along the line of "If you are reading this comment, have a great day!". Most of the time, their channel name is named very obvious, NAME Minecraft Let's Play or NAME VLOG, etc. You KNOW what they are doing, they want to attract viewers from the popular YouTubers to check out their channel for being nice. The truth is, that is the most pathetic and most annoying thing to do for views, and most people look down on. However I don't know if some people are naive or what, a handful of people will comment something nice back and these trash comments will be liked to the top few comments.
Well this is a bit different than what most people are coming up with, but just South of the so-called youtube skeptic community, and in a sort of venn diagram with said community, is the fanatic identity politics circle-jerk community. These people are here to make whatever minute of fame they can from saying politically charged crap that a certain, targeted audience likes to hear, and basically selling their soul out for popularity and views under the guise of being legitimately politically/socially involved or concerned.
Basically, just find different ways to say "CRAZY FEMINAZIS OUT THERE, AMIRITE", and you'll have a cozy audience to leech off of.
ShoeNice, this guy eats entire cans of dip, chugs liquor, and pretty much consumes anything placed in front of him. His unbearable commentary before and after the eating is probably the most "pathetic" part to be honest.
The guy who reacted to a video of 9/11 comes to mind.

Reading these comments makes me glad I only watch youtube for music and educational stuff. The Great War channel is my newest favorite but 0% chance I could sit through some doofus like the #BanDelta fraud sitting in front of a camera jabbering about nonsense

Fouseytube used to be funny and an all round nice guy making religious videos, now he makes drama videos and fake pranks faker than the girls he hangs with tits

Sorry to disappoint, I really don't care that he earns his
Money this way. I'm actually happy for him.
I really am.
But I'm disappointed, that he forgets what made him so famous in the first place.
Down to earth videos. His funny character.
He as a person. Which I used to like very much- I was able to identify with him.
And - mind you-I'm a "early times" sub.
I really loved his character, his goofy him, just the way he did his videos.i loved it.
Now? You can't listen more that a few mins of that goddamn voice he does all over again, just to be edgy and cool.
I guess I'm sad that this funny, goofy and dorky persona just..went for that new guy.
I don't like it. Which is ofc absolutely okay, cause it's his channel.but, sadly..no cant watch that anymore.

I remember Whiteboy7street or whatever his name is uploaded a video of him playing call of duty in the pets section probably because no one makes videos relevant to pets so it would very easily get pushed to the top of that section.
Video lengths around 10:04 - (Bonus clickbait title and image) You fucking know it's going to be some filler clickbait nonsense so they can get the 2x payout rate.
I post pretty mundane, stupid shit on my channel, and back when you could tag keywords to your video, I would tag anything I could think of to the video.
Example: My most viewed video with ~6K views is my AVGN Fan Pizza Taste Test, a response to James Rolfe's video of him and his buddies trying different pizzas from the TMNT cartoon. I filmed myself eating pepperoni and pickles, then tagged everything I could to the video from "AVGN," "fan," and "pizza," to "pickles," "pepperoni," and even "chicken" since our pet chicken showed up in the background. I feel that doing that made me desperate for views.

There's some stupid girl who's fugly and she always wears whatever dress that shows off her cleavage. The video has millions of views but has equal amounts of dislikes. And the vids are over 10 min long of her ranting on whatever topic of the day and she has a giant accent. I can't find it, but I'm pretty sure there are a few of those
Literally every video with boobs or some kind of borderline NSFW content as the thumbnail. The sucky thing is it works. I saw one youtuber complaining about this and he compared the videos without titty thumbnails to the ones that did, the views on those videos were viewed at least twice as much as the videos without the thumbnails.
Onision. For the time he recorded his girlfriend (allegedly) having a mental breakdown that was so extreme that she forgot who she was, and regressed to the mental state of a 5 year old, and uploaded it to Youtube. He took the time to edit the video, add sad music to it, and put ads on. He did nothing to help her, and suggested that everyone who said he should bring her to the doctor was an asshole because she doesn't like hospitals.
Guess what? She was fine shortly thereafter, and said videos disappeared from his channel without explanation.
Fast forward a few months with typical clickbaity videos, and there's another one: He uploads another video, holding his girlfriend in his arms, and saying that she has sepsis, and may need to go to Canada (I think she has dual citizenship?) to get treated next week. Sepsis is a blood infection that if left untreated causes septic shock, which has a mortality rate at 50% if it sets in. If you get sepsis you need to be treated I-fucking-mmediately if you don't want to die. If it's treated quickly, most people are OK. You don't leave it untreated for over a week. It was blatantly obvious bullshit, and people called him out on it. This video also disappeared from his channel, and AFAIK it was never explained.
This is just the Youtube shit by the way. One of his exes wrote an open letter explaining the events of her quite brief relationship with Onision online a few years ago, which can be found here
It's quite a long letter, but if the excerpt "he even went as far as to tell me that his mother informed him that when they were broken up but still living together โ and G wouldnโt have sex with her anymore (but would buy her sex toys and show her how to use them โ yes, I am serious) โ that Shiloh tried to force his little dog to eat her out, and the dog got scared, so it bit her in the crotch. Then he said something about Shiloh peeing on his bed and blaming the dog? I donโt even know, by this point I was terrified and stopped listening. It was time for me to fucking go to bed."
doesn't tempt you, I don't know what would.
This only scratches the surface for that manipulative bastard (Did I mention his early attempt at a weird extremist vegan cult of personality?) and I honestly hope he goes out for a drive alone, and his car goes off a cliff so nobody else is harmed by him. Oh yeah: He's getting close to 2 million subscribers.
There was this one guy that paid some other guys to hold a sign that said "death to all Jews" or some such. I heard it didn't work out too well though.

Disguise fitness videos as "fitness videos" when they're really soft porn.
Pretty much most YouTube "celebrities" annoy me. Annoying thumbnails with stupid faces in them, brightly colored clothes and hair styles that make them look like they are straight out of Nick Jr., dumb gimmicks on their videos, and generally not being funny at all.
Like how many times do I have to watch two mid-20s people talk about the news with hilarious soundbites overtop it, some "non-gamer" playing video games and sucking at them, eating things with hot sauce, etc.
It's just... I don't get that PewDePie guy at all, yet he's insanely popular. I think YouTube simply isn't for me. It's low effort humor that people flock to because it rakes in the money.
If it's actual good content? Sure. I'll give you my time, but not if you are piggybacking off of everything else and think a fresh button up polo and some faked voice (I'm looking at you, Toby) will make you important.

Thumbnails are the worst. In caps, bright colors, screaming face. So fucking dumb. I just unsubscribe/remove the channel if they ever do that. It's like they're selling to 9 year olds.... oh yeah most of them are. Youtube kinda sucks overall.
There's a youtuber couple (Not sure if they're actually a couple) who are the definition of the phrase, "I'll do anything for fame". From the looks of their vlogs, they don't stage anything but are full grown adults with the most childish attitudes. It's embarrassing to watch them getting kicked out of places for acting out in public, destroying items and acting like two immature high schoolers just for a cheap laugh.

There's this uruguayan youtuber that does "heavy jokes" and stupid shit like that. He has an army of stupid and horny teenagers behind him, so he's "famous".
Some day he uploaded a video where he got "stabbed" hunting a "drugdealer". Video is fake AF, you can really notice. After everybody criticized him and showed how fake the video was, he went out and told it was a "social experiment".
My 8yo daughter loves Guava Juice and even before he was with the other dude it was just the randomest stupidest stuff. Yolanda etc.

"I'M CALLING OUT YOUTUBE!"
There are so many more easier and less obnoxious and standoffish ways of voicing your concerns to YouTube, and now every YouTuber and their mother is making videos talking about how horrible YouTube is. And then Felix made a big show about deleting his channel when he reached 50 million subscribers, like he was making a statement to YouTube, but he didn't really delete his channel. Just a side channel that isn't affiliated with him.
I still think JMX uploading skanks to do strip Fifa is that shittest thing I've ever seen. Makes so much from it as well. Fair play to him as he's getting away with it but it's just bs.

Philip DeFranco or whatever his name is....whole first 2 years on Youtube he would make all the thumbnails for his Youtube vids have half naked/bikini clad girls on them in just blatant click bait attempts to get views.
Every day/week there would be a thumbnail of some hot girl and no indication that it was his show.
I fell for that shit a couple of times every week looking at my recommended vids and seeing some girl in a bikini then clicking on that shit and seeing his face instead. That deceptive, and unethical behavior on his part taught me to completely hate the guy and I don't even know him. For all I know he might be a very awesome dude, but since he pulled that shit it gave me a very bitter taste in my mouth toward him and now I think he is a scumbag because he was dishonest in his advertising. I fell for it almost every day and each time I ended up on his channel I was like "fuck! not again!".
He might be successful now and loved by many and all that but I think the things he did to get those early views (when at that time Youtube's algorithms cared about the numbers of views not the length of each vid and engagement) were pathetic.

nevermind youtube, which views could actually generate revenue, what about Redditors. Karma is useless. Ive seen a Redditor post a story and picture about how his dog ate a sock and it was sticking out of his ass. The problem, as another Redditor pointed out, was that the sock sticking out of the dogs ass was stark white. It didnt have shit on it. The conclusion was that OP stuck a clean sock up his dogs ass for internet points. I doubt anything on youtube can top that

I made a video about YouTubers who use an auto-commenter to spam 1000's of small channels to get them to come join their Shoutout series. The comments basically say "hey, awesome video! Check out my shoutout series to earn more subscribers!"
Then gullible channels (mostly kids) will go and see they have to follow at least 4 rules to "qualify" for a shoutout. They usually consist of:
- Subscribe to their channel
- like and comment on all their content (the more you comment, the more they will "notice" you)
- subscribe to the winner of the shoutout
- tell the winner that they(scummy YouTubers) sent you
This is essentially a pyramid scheme that so many people fall for. And the types of people who do this don't even have interesting channels, just the same old video game commentary and dubstep intro douche who can't think up of an original idea. Sickens me
Clickbait. I know it doesn't seem like much anymore because we are so used to it, but it truly is pathetic. It's pathetic that someone has to lie or hype up their video that might be mentioned in there video for a few seconds or isn't really related to the content at all.
Putting the name of a new song release in the title as "OFFICIAL" or some variation. Bonus points if they use an official album logo or image from said new song/album or they make it around 3-4 minutes long and it's just the image or even worse, a news segment from someone's backwater entertainment site talking about it.
I got trolled for a few weeks for that song from SING and for the new Beauty and the Beast music.
The CUM challenge, this girl said she was a professional cum taster and had several glasses with various substances that looked like cum (shampoo, hand lotion, etc) and one had cum, when they told her witch glass contained the actual thing she swallowed it whole like a shot.

In gaming videos attach a fake screenshot or even a beautiful real life picture. In the thumbnail you can't really see what you are getting.
Either doing things with a nude photo as a thumbnail or what all the used up ho's do "I'll do porn at 1 mill". I'm looking at that Lil tramp named zoie burger or whatever her last name is that started making that a thing. She got no types a talent, she gaining fame similar to kardashian just without actually dick sucking and getting fucked.
Fake thumbnails pretending to be video content. The serial killer/ crime video channels do this a lot. Also Lately third world noobs think having 'very' sexually suggestive thumbnails with completely unrelated title would somehow make sense.

Offer to post sex tapes for reaching subscription goals.
There's nothing wrong with putting sex tapes online, and I personally don't think prostitution is wrong, but baiting for subscribers and views by offering a sex tape that you wouldn't otherwise post is basically admitting you don't have anything quality to offer on youtube.
You can be an amateur pornstar on chaturbate or pornhub or something like that instead, where that content is exactly what people are looking for. It's like the episode of Family Guy where they open a cookie shop, and they have strippers and hookers to bait people in. At that point, they're not there for the cookies anymore, why even bother with the cookie shop.
Someone pointed a handheld camera at their computer monitor and uploaded their camera recording of what was clearly someone else's youtube video onto their own channel. No dialogue or commentary other than whatever minor background noise the camera might have picked up (like the mouse clicking to start the youtube video). Just a crappy cam recording with crappy audio of someone else's youtube video.
Anything Sernandoe posts. He posts the same shit over and over again about how he found a GTA online money hack or how he got his sister and his mom pregnant.

Idk the channel (nor do I care to link it) but a girl said she would do a porno or leak her own nudes if she got over 1M subs. She got it about a month.... Srsly sad..
Promise nudes/sextapes at a certain goal (to any kind of audience, YouTube ain't PornHub yet)
Base your whole channel on your cleavage
The whole shit of super exagerated stories (Tana Mongeau looking at you)
"Challenges" like the 24 Hours on insert store
Social experiments that actually mean nothing and are mostly fake, this makes me cringe the hardest because pretending to be homeless for views isn't a social experiment, asking girls for your number isn't a social experiment, etc
This might just be me but i hate when people have a thumbnail/title that don't give away what the video is about. I'm subscribed to quite a few Let's Play channels and i hate seeing something like "I don't want to play this" And the thumbnail is their face.
I want to know what i'm going to watch, it's not that difficult to write the name of the game into the title.
I guess it works and generates clicks.
There used to be a few that have all these lame conspiracy theory things with crazy facial expression and terrible titles. Or the YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!!! With lame car crash emojis or needles and its nothing even close. Those video makes me not click and usuall warrant an immediate unsub.

Five Nights at Freddies reaction videos purchased about 10 Lamborghini in total via ad revenue on these vids. If you have a funny accent, double your earnings.
No one is being specific here about most stuff, but I'll be anyways. On the beauty guru youtubers, the ones that usually do makeup, are shady as hell. For example, this makeup palette by nikkietutorials, who , coincidentally has shady practices as well, was very poorly received for being an awful palette and Nikkie herself was criticized for misleading her "fans" as well in her reveal video. Another big makeup youtuber is Tati, who did this pathetic review in which she is basically kissing ass while the makeup in the palette that she had shown in her video was very clearly awful, but she continued to give a "good" review. And people still consider her a "credible" source on reviews when she is basically a glorified advertisement that pretends to care about you, when in reality she just a wants the fame and money. I could go on and on about most makeup gurus and their corrupt practices.

Joey Salads with his fake social experiments. The one where he had a car plastered with Trump signs and left it parked in a predominantly black neighborhood where it was trashed. It was discovered that he paid them to destroy it.
1000 degree knife was kind of entertaining at first, but every video was the exact same thing. Also, i never understood why challenge videos get so many views.
In that case, I highly recommend the show "Social Disorder", it's made by Rooster Teeth (Of Red vs Blue and RWBY fame), and is about putting ordinary people in extremely uncomfortable situations, making them do things they wouldn't normally do. That is a social experiment, not getting someone to kick your ass and then going "W-wait! There's a camera, this is just a social experiment!"
Not views, but subscriptions. I read a news story just the other day about a girl who promised to release a sex tape of she reached 1M subscribers. Her name is Lena Nersesian

Those stupid "prank" videos. Half the time it's some upper middle class kid trying super hard to piss off lower income blacks to make views based off of racial stereotypes.
I'm really fed up with League of Legends (Stream-)Videos nowadays.
Especially those Clickbaittitles like โTHIS WILL 100% BE NERFED!! LITERALLY NO COUNTER | MAX LETHALITY 1-SHOTS HECARIM JUNGLE - Nightblue3โ while the video is mildly entertaining at most.
Or Youtuber riding the meme bandwagon like โCatch me outsideโ while it has little to nothing to do with the video.
While I can't comment much on his content, he seems like a pretty upstanding guy, when you dig deeper than the screaming at everything approach he has.
Fair enough.
Still Issue is parsonal. I don't like 90% of his content, i find it trite and annoying. I'm not going to stick around for the possibility that 10% may be good.

Not someone I follow but I was linked it by a friend so I don't remember the name.
He was one of those prank you tubers. His prank consisted him of crushing up a shit tone of laxatives into ice cream and giving it to his kids (looked between 3 and 8 yrs old) and then procede to video them while the cry on the toilet. And tellin them was a lesson to teach them tรฒ not eat so much ice cream at once.
That was no prank that was straight up child abuse.... Also What hit me was how hesitant and untrusting the kids where when he handed them the ice cream... usualy some kids given ice cream will be extatic and happy these kids looked like they didn't know what to do with it cos he had probably never just given them a treat before.
TL;DR : prankster youtuber spikes his small children''s ice cream for views.
I hate when I look on Google for a stream of a movie, and I find a Youtube link, and it's an 90 minute long image from the movie with a link to a download at some sketchy place.

It's not really pathetic on the youtubers parts, but when game companies give big channels their game super early and let them post half the fucking game before release.
There used to be competition to be the first channel to fully playthrough a game and upload it, but it's impossible for small channels to climb the ladder this way anymore. I don't blame the youtubers, it's hard to say no to a situation like that, but companies have become too reliant on youtubers praising their game. (Like when all those Battlefield channels got paid by EA to give Battlefield 4 high praise).
I didn't do it, but someone took one of my songs and put "Brand New Martin Garrix, Tiesto, Aviici Song" and they uploaded an mp3 of my song. It got over 2 million listens! More than any of my other songs put together just about.
I remember a very long time age I saw a justin bieber and selena gomez caught kissing vid but it ended up being an ad for a computer repair shop ,The thumbnail looked pretty realistic

Crappy "fan" trailers presented as the real thing, slide shows of pretty much any kind, and fucking twelve year old's making celebrity pussy or other bait videos thinking it is funny....
And talking heads making "review" videos where the only content in the video is some muppet talking for 10 minutes, attention whoring from their "studio" in their moms basement...................
This wasn't a youtuber, but this girl from the show "married at first sight" started a blog. She also wrote a book, and every blog entry she somehow finds a way to promote her book. That's fine, I get it, it's how she makes money. But she ended up having a miscarriage and made this really long, emotional blog entry about it talking about how devastated she was. I felt so badly for her but in the middle of the blog she tried to self promote her book again. Saying something along the lines of "you'd know how much having this baby meant to me if you read my book links to amazon" and once more at the end she promoted it as well. Something about it just really rubbed me the wrong way. I was surprised she couldn't have a single entry without trying to make money off it. Not a huge deal but yeah.

Not really a YouTuber thing, but former Ocarina of Time speedrunner CosmoWright was transitioning to female, instead of streaming OoT speedruns she streamed in provactive clothes and begged for money, LITERALLY begged "Please give me money" while trying to be seductive. Needless to say she was banned real fast from Twitch.
"Snake eats crocodile and gets killed by an elephant with a tiger on its back!!!"
Whoever puts rick-rolls behind such a title: Go fuck yourself! You should be the one who gets eaten by that snake.
When I click on such a video I want to see exactly what the title suggests. Not more, not less.
Yes, sometimes I want to see a hungry snake getting killed by an elephant with a tiger on its back.
@google: Fuck you. Why aren't you deleting videos with misleading titles once they have been reported? Do you need the money or are you just too busy playing pool?
i mean, almost every ProGamerJay and Exility video is like cancer in 10 minutes and 4 seconds. the title and thumbnail are something like "HOLY SH*T RAY GUN IN MULTIPLAYER (COD BLACK OPS 3 MULTIPLAYER RAY GUN)" or "RAY GUN FROM SUPPLY DROP UNBOXING WTF!" where they open maybe 2 drops and then ramble on about how crazy it would be for the ray gun to be in multiplayer. but the video always seem to drag out to just over 10 minutes...
That stupid guy that just goes out in public and does huge douchebag things to piss off people until police are called.
I.e. Went to a local Italian restaurant and got the manager to let him, a grown man, to order a kid's meal but then didn't want to pay for his adult sized drink.
Or ordering a giant drink from Starbucks, drank half of it and then complained he didn't like it and got them to make him another drink for free. Then proceeds to just pour out the free drink all over himself.
That couple that faked a miscarriage. Do I have proof that it was faked? No, but the husband said he got her pee sample from the toilet bowl where she had peed in the middle of the night. That's not how it works. This was the first video that went viral, then they posted an emotional video a week later saying she miscarried. This too went viral and they subscriber numbers took off

"Top 10 actors who were murdered on set and the killer is still at large!" Starring maybe one dead actor but the rest are alive and doing movies still.
"Top 10 actors that freaked out on set." Literally none of the examples are someone freaking out. Fuck that channel.
Posting some controversial news like 'Modi is shot dead', while when you watch it, it would be a different, a common person with name Nikhilesh Modi or something. I get more infuriated by the views they get.
Zoey Burgher, Celestia Vega and all other girls making videos with no substance except from their bodies. Especially the whole "nudes/sextape at 1 million" trend among them channels.

On the Western hemisphere: Youtubers whose primary content consist of drama. Leafy, Tana, Keemstar, WildSpartanz, RiceGum etc. Instead of creating original, entertaining content, they create (or exaggerate or even involve themselves when it's something that has nothing with them) videos to profit off the drama.
On the Eastern (Japan) hemisphere: product reviews (with exaggerated reaction) and absurd "challenges". Hikakin (who used to make great beatboxing videos), Hajime-shacho, heck, almost half of Japanese Youtubers have made some sort of product review video. While it may not be as cancerous as drama videos, the thing that was reviewed as well as their over-the-top reactions turned me off their videos forever.
I know, I just think it's senseless to keep on her about the cancer thing as I don't see it as a huge deal given the time that has passed and that she didn't pursue it in any way.
Her view botting every stream is a real problem though.
If you were around the league subreddit about two years ago there was this thing called the YouTube Skype Group. Basically some the top League YouTubers made a group with the specific purpose to upvote all their videos that get posted on reddit and YouTube and then downvote/brigade/banned everything else so their content gets massive views in a short amount of time. I hate those channels now with a passion and refuse to watch ANY of their videos. One of them is even a creepy jerk in real life.

In Spain there is a guy who recently pepper-sprayed the face of a pizza delivery guy. He picked up the pizza, entered the house to search for the money, pepper-sprayed the pizza and then told the worker that there was a problem with the pizza. In front of him, he oppened the box and the poor guy got all on his face. And the asshole who did that told everyone that it was just a prank, and that the next one would be more "edgy".
Also, theres this other guy, who insults random people in the street, and then says that it is just a "prank". One day, one of his "victims", a worker, faced him and slapped him for calling him "caranchoa", that can be roughly translated as "fishface". The youtuber told in the video that he was going to denounce the worker (this would probably put the man's work at risk) and this news reach Twitter quickly. The slap became rapidly a meme and there were tons of vids parodying it (like when Richard Spencer got punched). It has become sort of a trend between spanish youtubers to harass workers, for the sake of "pranks" Aka for visits and money.
And there's this guy who basically recorded himself tormenting his cats (throwing them to water, scaring them with electricity...laughing his ass off), and one day he spreaded toothpaste in some Oreos and gave them to a beggar. As a "prank". Now he is being prosecuted by Justice for humiliating the man.
As I say, all this cases spreaded rapidly in Twitter and now a lot of people knows and hates this assholes.

There is a youtuber in Argentina that said he would capture a drugdealer, the he proceed to confront the guy and he got stabbed. The whole thing was staged and was so obvius that he said it was a "social experiment".
The whole thing became viral and even the news covered his story.
i watch alot of gavin mcinnes, ben shapiro and tucker carlson compilations (im sure ill get crucified for this on reddit but oh well) and some asshole put the compilations on his channel and just added air horns amd "daaaaaamn" audioclips and basically the equivalent of a laugh track.. thx guy i know when someone made a goodpoint without an air horn and the words "thug life" thrown at my face.

Shoenice hasn't been mentioned? I used to check his channel daily until I realized how mentally fucked up this dude is. I can't even justify posting a link. Hope he gets some help.
The "social experiments" that are fake make me so mad. Like when that youtuber left a car in a black neighbourhood and hired all those black actors to wreck his car... basically exploiting stereotypes for views
Not a YouTuber, but a twitch streamer, was pretending to be a paraplegic. Eventually he made a mistake on stream and got up from his seat. He set up charities that his followers donated to and everything. Basically just a overall shitty person using others.
world cup/euro cup highlights: there are always these douches who, instead of posting the advertised highlights, post a video of them playing FIFA. then I sit through an ad before I can see its utter nonsense. those people are going straight to hell.

I made a video about a Firefox icon phallus.
I was 12, and saw videos about hidden messages in advertisement and looked for anything in everything. I noticed the old logo had a land extension that sort of mimicked the fox holding a huge dick.
With some clever keywords, a click bait title, a "300" sound bite and horrible windows movie maker graphics, I managed 1million+ views. Pretty good achievement for someone that age no matter the premise. My other videos got about 10k views. But I stopped making videos and eventually deleted the account on impulse.
The original video, and idea, was stolen of course. You can find the original on ebaums world last I checked.
Any of those prank channels doing "social experiments".

In the early 2010s Youtuber were constantly doing vapid challenges for views. I don't know why people would think it's entertaining to watch someone do the Chubby Bunny challenge, or Gallon Milk challenge, or whatever latest fad.
Also - harming themselves for views. The Ice Bath challenge consists of someone literally filling a tub full of ice and trying to see how long they can last in it.
Sexy foreign girl promises you can learn her language if you subscribe and follow her lessons but she's so attractive it's distracting, so you end up never actually learning anything.
Pretty much anything shoenice does. I've watched a few of his videos where he chugs whole bottles of liquor or glue and it's actually amazing to see someone do things like that. The thing is his whole channel is filled with him eating fucked up stuff and I can't help but feel sorry for him watching him destroy his stomach.
charity streams. a lot of the time the charity donations are sponsered and the youtubers aren't giving up any of their own money. in fact they are making money from the sponsers to promote it.
I generally dislike how youtubers collab with eachother for the pure purpose of increased views. Like the friendship between them is clearly put on for the camera; it's a smart business move but it's pathetic in every way
Click bait title like "WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET TO 0 HEALTH???" random arrows and shit pointing to things that don't matter on the thumbnail. This was for a video game. What the fuck else would happen when you get to 0 health ? smh

All of D&B Nation's videos. Click bait and the same "breakup" pranks over and over. Also they're never with they're kids. When they go shopping and out to eat every day, are their kids with them? Nope. They just ha a baby two months ago and after the first 3 weeks they went on vacation to Florida. We seriously hardly ever see their children. Also the dude is 24 and the girl is 19 and they already have two children with the oldest being two years old.

The click baiting and the overused breakup prank i agree with. But id disagree with the "they dont spend any time with the kids" just because you dont see them playing with dj or kyrie in a 10min video doesnt mean they dont spend time with em. And the last sentence about thier age i dont get? is the 5 year gap to big for you?

I would generally agree about the 10 minute video thing, but you think about it, they post everyday and they do the same stuff: go shopping and go out to eat. In general people would bring their kids with them. They are never with them doing regular shit. And they're not just doing these activities for 10 mins. In real life, one would be gone hours on end. And their videos are usually 25+. And again the traveling thing, they left the day after DJ's birthday. They've gone traveling, what, twice? Since Kyrie has been born and he's only two months and you think they're traveling as a family thing? No, they're leaving those kids and going off to Cali and Florida.
5 years isn't big when you're 30 and 35, or 24 and 29, but 19 and 24 and she done already had two kids? Meaning one was born when she 17. That's young af..

My son is 3 and knows how to pull up YouTube on my phone and somehow gets to these videos of creepy adults (generally female) playing with kids toys. They'll open up these little eggs or surprise boxes and show what TV character toy is inside. Or maybe it's a play doh set where they just narrate while play with it. It's weird and oddly addictive for little kids. I know my son isn't the only one who finds these and loves them. He'll watch them over and over (partly because he can't really navigate YouTube, partially because he just loves them).

React channels are a perfect example, aside from the few who provide actual commentary or insight on what they're watching, most are just parasites who watch a video someone else made start to finish with no context or commentary. And nearly all of them have those shit windows movie maker era openings with a fake "production company" name in an edgy font while rap music they didn't pay a license for plays.
Doing what Joey Salads did, fake reactions in social experiments done in the hood showing black people in the hood acting acting real irrational and ignorant. Providing reasons why people now should dislike black people.

"reaction" channels where they just play someone else's video in the corner of the screen while they sit their and make facial expressions. So scummy. I have no idea why people have any interest in watching another person react to a video
It's a pretty obvious answer? Some people enjoy seeing how others react to something they've already seen to compare their thoughts on the video to theirs or compare their reaction to their own. How do you not understand why someone would have an interest in that it's something pretty much every somewhat social person already does in real life.

Not really You Tube specific, but I always get a kick out of the fuckers that post a shocking (but vague) headline about jet travel and then have a thumbnail of a jet on fire careening through the air, a jet split in half, a jet missing engines, and my favorite - a jet missing the entire cockpit. These fucks belong in prison.
Some Youtubers who make videos aimed at younger kids are really exploiting the YouTube like and view functions as a quick money making technique by claiming they "hacked" another Youtuber and that the only way they will give the channel back is if they go to the "hacker's" personal channel and like their videos as well as subscribe to them. It's clearly just a circle of friends acting like they're hacking each other's channels and holding them hostage for likes and subs. It's mainly clash royale videos. Search "durv" on YouTube and you'll see what I mean. Shout out to APL Fisher and his glorious neck beard for drawing attention to it.

Some Singaporean youtubers made a video on how they would 'smash or pass' media influencers to the extent it got really uncouth and disgusting - noting how these are really just immature wannabes
Endangering the lives of others, gain pleasure from other people's pain/embarassment. Some of these YouTubers are the definition of selfish and self centered. One of the videos that comes to mind is Vitalyzd's Hitman Gone Wrong Prank
Everyone has their own problems to deal with and a "prank" on the wrong person can be potentially resolved in a negative way
A little bit different, but on the live streaming site Twitch, there was a girl that told everyone that she had cancer, to get more Donations and Views, when she was outed as a liar she was banned from the site.
This YouTuber named " erockdontstop " pathetically advertised his username on a Hot Reddit that asked what the most pathetic thing YouTubers did for some views
One word, clickbait, the type which never lets you bite at all, since there wasn't a bait at all to begin with. The second one that I can think of is talking shit or crap about someone else, even if they don't know the involved person well enough to do so. All for the sake of sensationalism, sometimes they don't even know if they're talking about facts or lies. Some people have been made victims of this kind of slandering online, I remember an innocent old man getting framed for another old man's pedophilliac crimes. Therefore, for whatever you hear on the internet, you gotta take it with a pinch of salt.
This is relatively minor and will certainly get buried, but I can't stand when videos have the title "10 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT [blank]". The hubris of claiming to have an idea of what I know or don't about a certain thing that I'm passionate about is infuriating. I just avoid those videos entirely nowadays. Never mind the fact that, at best, those videos usually include maybe one or two things I didn't know.
Those schmucks who walk up to random girls and do stupid "kissing" games. Then they decide to go all rapey on the camera, touching random girls all over the place.
When unknown acts record shitty covers of recent songs that are too new for the official version to be on YouTube and title the video with something like "Artist Song Official Lyrics Video", then get around flags for misleading titles by putting "cover" at the bottom of the description - which mobile users, aka most of the people looking up music on YouTube to listen to while they exercise or whatever, have to click the video and have a view counted to read.

He spent the past week saying that about revealing what wrap he put on his Audi S4. So yesterday he fucking fakes a reveal and sets the video to black and white whenever he shows the car just so he could get another day out of making the viewers wait to see it. And TBH no one really even cares about seeing it, they just want to see him skate which he hardly does anymore.

I used to watch Casey Neistat's vlogs when he was uploading them daily. I still remember one titled "She Fell Off the Horse". Spoiler alert, nobody falls off of the horse. I enjoyed his vlogs for a good year or so, but he always had clickbait titles. I wish YouTubers didn't do that. I feel it cheapens their videos. The video is no longer about the content, it's just "some more content."
The dude who lights two crisscrossing rows of firecrackers on his bare upper body. He almost immediately goes into shock afterwards with extremely bad burns.
Creating a gambling site and advertising it to your underage viewers while not telling them that you actually own the site because you want your viewers' parents' money.
Reposting a video from a popular YouTuber and filling it with ads. This happens to popularMMOs, a decent minecrafter. Someone else just rips a video from one of his series and puts eight to ten ads in it. I found one like this while searching and it had over a million views, half the commenters didn't know it was a fake.
There's a fitness YouTuber who need not be named that once posted a video with a title of "Fitness YouTuber X gets kicked out of Planet Fitness" and...didn't get kicked out, he just walked around PF and acted like an asshole

A GTA online youtuber sernandoe is onwe of those who got rich from click bait videos. All his videos are clickbait and garbage. He just released a video named GTA 6 early unboxing and found a shitty dvd inside the cover and told his audience he was bamboozled
One time ReverendBurn was begging for money a week before chrissmass because he was going to get evicted from his house aparently, one month later he deleted the video and opened a podcast with new equipment. He didn't do it for views but he did it for money which sucks too. (Edited for grammar)
He created a video where he left a Trump car in a black neighborhood and then HIRED a bunch of black dudes to fuck the car up while pretending that it was a social experiment with a hidden camera.

By far one of my least favorite kinds are ones like "INSULTING STRANGERS IN THE HOOD!" Assuming that they're even real, where's the humor? You just provoke people until they beat the shit out of you. What did you think was going to happen?

Pretty much all of the videos by LA Beast are pathetic. He does a wide array of things like eating a cactus with thorns on it, eating a cut up shoe, drinking a gallon of tobacco sauce or cooking oil, eating multiple jars of Wasabi sauce, and his latest video was him eating light bulbs. One of his more crazier ones was just him eating the chocolate bhutlah that's supposedly fairly hotter then the Carolina reaper but hasn't been scientistically tested to be hotter yet. He was hallucinating in that one.

When they make several videos documenting "what's happening" after one of their family members dies or whatever other sad event happens to them. Most of the time it's maybe one video explaining that they won't be doing videos for a little while which I understand because they'll have hundreds of whiny little bitch kids pestering them about the next video and news about them being dead start to appear, but I've seen sometimes where there's a daily video where they just repeat the same shit like "I'm just so sad, this is gonna take some time blah blah" with a thumbnail of them crying and titled like IM REALLY STRUGGLING or some shit. It's like the most perfect way of making me go from mild sympathy for the guy, to losing all respect within the span of 1.5 seconds of seeing that they've got a second video.

That guy Joey Salads is the first that comes to mind. He would fake "social experiments." His typical video would be to go predominantly black neighborhoods with Trump stuff and hire a bunch of guys to attack him or vandalize his car. He got exposed by some other YouTuber.
Oh anything fouseytube does. He literally faked mental illness, faked all the hate he was getting, faked eating disorders, faked suicidal thoughts and bunch more just for "motivational message".
And that's not even mentioning all the fake pranks.

How about giveaways? The gaming Youtubers all went on a giveaway spree for like a month. One of them gained millions of views for each video, and had a substantial increase in subscribers
Y'know a hundred years ago when it was handwritten letters, people ate that shit up. Shit, fifty years ago, magazine publishes an article, reader writes a letter, magazine publishes it and replies, that's one to two pages of content care of an unpaid stranger.

Having a hot girlfriend, using said girlfriend in every thumbnail half naked, and having every title be something that could be taken sexually (eg "I can't believe what she let me do to her!").
Also the thumbnail is no where in the video, nor does anything happen related to the title

Some of the outrageous thumbnails are fun. I remember one titled something like 'biggest aircraft in the world' or something, and the thumbnail is some random cargoplane with 12 poorly photoshopped and maldistributed engines on it.

I used to live in the same apartment complex of the YouTuber UDY Pranks, my mom was the apartment manager, she constantly saw him rehearsing, he even told her they were rehearsing. One time she had to make them stop filming at the pool because there were little girls at the pool and parents got freaked out he was filming there with them in the background. He threw loud parties, and I believe got kicked out after my mom left the complex.
There was that one YouTuber (I forget his name) but he was doing a give away of 1000+ iPhone 7s or 6s (can't remember that detail either) and in his video he showed truck loads of phone cases. When it came to the giveaway only 3 people got an iPhone and I believe in order to enter you had to subscribe. It wouldn't be hard to find it because of how much controversy it got.

Reply Girls. A lot of people here won't remember them, but back when youtube had response videos there were a lot of chicks posting videos where they just vaguely mumble about the content of the video with their tits hanging out. It was really odd, and if I recall they were making some bank.
My friend posted a dumb video of me pranking my brother's girlfriend but called it 'sex in car'. It's got 100s of thousands of views and its so dumb. Indian people love me chatting bollocks.
He made another where he just torched a dandelion and called it 'lesbian sex' or something. So many views.

There was a thing Youtube channels were doing about five years ago. They would upload a video and immediately take it down. Epic Freakout Kid was one of the channels that did this. What they found out was that when you uploaded and then took down a video people had a tendency to go back and watch old content, generating more views. Back then the video would show on Youtube for a little bit even if removed but if you clicked on it the page would say the content was removed. It also generated a little buzz for the channel, people would talk about what was in the video, or if it broke Youtube's rules when in fact there was no video at all. I think some Youtubers came out to say that Youtube came to them saying they should do this for more views and they refused.
I personally thought pewdiepies whole "im leaving youtube" stunt was to get views. Used the fact that youtubes algo was bad for smaller youtubers etc etc and gained a ton of publicity from that, claimed he will quit youtube at a certain point and lo and behold at that point, just ended up saying it was all a "prank".

Yo wassup guys big money Asgartov here to comment on this Reddit thread. I fuckin hate when Youtubers post videos where their thumbnail is not in the vid and the title is some shit like "HD GAMING TIPS" to get them clicks and views from the gullible masses. Kinda like this shit from a big money Youtuber called Erik Salvia. it kinda scares me honestly because if YT can deceive people this easily what can the government get away with? i mean already half the population has been sent to FEMA camps right under our noses and we don't even know it. Its even worse when your president flies hologram planes into your famous buildings in order to take away our freedoms with the Patriot act and start a holy war with Muslims. But I'm not really worried about that right now because Trump is gonna make america great again by getting all the immigrants out of here and build the border wall. I mean look what /r/conspiracy and Alex Jones have already exposed, the Obama administration helped one of the largest mass immigration compaigns in the history of the world (he's a muslim born in Kenya btw). Anyways I bounced on my boys dick too long today so I kinda need to go see my anus doctor for a rubber tube that got stuck up there while I tried to make him suck it out like a girl givin me a blowjob.

A lot of people are calling youtubers out for these VERY mild things, and I'm more than positive if most of you were in their shoes you would do the same, especially with the YouTube algerithm in place. Seriously thousands of dollars for making clickbait titles, sign me the fuck up.
Not so much attached to views, but I used to be a part of a sketch group in which the who de facto leader would lose his shit over the like and dislike ratio if it didn't come up to what he thought was good. He would spam subs with the videos we made and have us spam them to other people as well at times. If the particular video didn't get the exposure he deemed fit, he would be passive aggressive and angry. The thing is, it was only on videos he wasn't directly in charge of. If he thought it was bad and it manifested itself in anyway sort of way, no matter how minute, he would make it apparent that "we" not "him" didn't do a good enough job with whatever. If it was a passion project for him or one he particularly wanted to do, he would also claim that any negativity toward his project was our fault. We disbanded eventually because of stuff things like this. Being friends before this, it altered the dynamic of the group and hasn't been the same since. Last major thing they put together after I parted ways was an indiegogo for a project he has really been wanting to make since even before the group had come together. They raised most of their goal 1.4k I think. But when it finally went to post production he lost all energy towards it citing "it had not been made the way he wanted." even though from day 1 he had effectively sabotaged any chance for it to do that. That video may never see the light of day and that money may never go back to the people it belongs to.
TLDR - A man lost friends over self esteem being attached to the like/dislike bar.

Well this is topical, but making increasingly offensive videos because of the feedback they receive from some of their viewers. It's a business, I understand you want to give people what you think they want, but it's pathetic to make anti-Semitic jokes in your videos because a particularly vocal part of your audience responds to it. Also pertains to other increasingly antagonistic, largely right-wing ideas, because "LOL jews and feminazis" results in a bump in views and likes from that section of viewers.
Second most pathetic thing is an incessant need for personal branding. Many Youtubers think they need a schtick rather than have people like them for who they are, and of course it comes off annoying and phony more often than not.
Not exactly about views, but something pathetic a youtuber did as well.
One of these rather famous car review guys wanted to change his car to a then-new Ecoboost Mustang, but lacked the funds. So he started a gofundme, and created a series of videos to ask his viewers to fund it.
I had a friend in High School who had a youtube channel, he got his girlfriend to wear a t-shirt with his channel icon on it. That, and other shameless promotion.

One christmas a few years ago I set in my mind that I WOULD win one of those contests so I began looking for any and all youtube contests.
Stumbled across some girl, she was maybe 11 or something who had a channel. She had a few thousand followers and you could tell English was her second language. She was apparently giving away a Macbook Pro. Unsurprisingly, a couple months went by and she never announced the winner...
Can't see any Shoenice here. His content was shocking at first but it became apparent that he consumes stupid shit for views. Now he stalks popular videos to get in the comments for popularity since his views tanked massively.
I think the biggest thing, these days, is clickbait, and the thumbnails and descriptions aren't much better. I can't tell what any given video from half of the YouTubers I'm subbed to is even about, because it's just some generic clickbait title they've used ironically.
I watch less and less of their videos, because what they put in the title doesn't sound interesting, or alluring, at all, and is usually extremely unrelated to what content the video actually contains. I recently found out that like 20-30 videos I skimmed over from one YouTuber were actually part of a series I enjoyed watching, and thought was gone. Thing is, it could be a hell of a lot more than 30, even, because the titles are the same generic clickbait as the rest of their videos, so I can't tell which videos are from which series.
It's gotta stop. Go back to the descriptive titles, ya fucks!

Screenjunkies is probably most famous for their "HonestTrailers" series, but also has a cult following for their "Movie Fights" series. But lately those video views were sliding, so they added "Drunk Movie Fights", basically where the fighters get drunk and more pathetic as the show goes on. But the real jump the shark moment was "Stoned Movie Fights". Yep, fighters were stoned on weed throughout the fight. It was so bad, embarrassing, painfully tedious to watch. I couldn't past the first round, and the comments section was scathing negative about it.

Looking at you PewDiePie! You used to be so good and now your vids are like ??? What the fuck am I supposed to be doing here? Your title doesn't match your video (not click bait I swear!) Stupid ass thumbnails! So disappointed in you Felix!
To be fair he watches how many views he gets, so he knows his audience. If everyone clickbaits (including the news) everyone just comes to expect it and suddenly its not an issue.
Maybe you are not one of the people who does it, but the title can draw in new audience which raises views and subscriptions.
Yeah but really? Would you rather have dignity knowing you're doing something good, or just make something popular? Even =3 never resorted to click bait shit.

Look no further than our good friend DSPgaming. Holy shit this guy is sad. He had an okay run from about 2010 to 2012 but since then has fallen off harder than I thought imaginable. He moved from one side of the US to the other and alienated his friends. He begs on youtube for people to donate to his patreon account so he won't have to go out and find a real job. His full time girlfriend has a more stable source of income than Phil. He claims that his youtube channel is a business and says he runs a small business so he feels like he is wearing the pants in the relationship. He will upload at least 10 videos a day so maximize his potential views and even then, the videos only get a couple hundred views each.
His most recent shenanigans are pretty sad too. He has a couple of channels so he can get as much money as possible but one of those channels is pretty much dead. So what he decided to do was take videos made by his fans and upload them to this dead channel with some voice overs at the beginning and the end. The people who actually made the videos get absolutely nothing out of the deal but Phil gets 100% of the money.
One time a guy put an iPhone in a blender to see what would happen. He got so many views that he put another iPhone into the blender. It's a channel just full of blender anarchy. I ask myself, "WHY?!" And then I remember, "why not?!"

I forgot what this you tubers name is but he made a video stating he was kicked out of high end dealerships because he was black or something. But he left on his own accord because no one automatically walked up to him and he didn't have the money to buy a land Rover Range or mercades. He litterally was driving a Kia Soul and automatically assumed he'd get rich off youtube before actually making youtube videos that's why he was trying to buy mercades

Not sure I'd describe his YouTube as 'pathetic', but seeing shoenice slowly kill himself for views is quite sad.
This one isn't extreme, but it was sad to see a devolution in quality from a YouTuber who I thought was entertaining. I don't wanna put his name here, but he made some funny and creative skits that felt like he actually tried. But since he started gaining subs (500k right now), he started getting money, and now all his content is stuff like "CRINGY MUSICALLYS OMG", and he recently even made a (sort of) spiderman and Elsa video. I thought it was meant to be satire, but he was just trying to get views. I think he recently even said that he only cares about the money at this point. It's a bit sad because I actually thought he was a cool and funny guy, and enjoyed watching him. I guess I respect the hustle to an extent.
People will make emails look just like a bill from iTunes, mass email it to tens of thousands of people saying they just bought something for $300 or so. "Didn't make this purchase? CLICK HERE" and the link takes them to someone's YouTube vid.
The videos that have the thumbnail as some popular video going around that you are trying to watch. But when the video starts it's some chick in a VH1 style newsroom and instead of showing the video, it's 3 min of them talking about what happens in the video and showing tiny screen caps of it. It's soo fucking annoying!

The worst thing I see from the video game world is YouTubers who title a video "Here's what we know about "upcoming unrevealed yet highly anticipated title" and the whole thing is them giving their opinions on edited down versions of other people's opinion videos, all the while nothing is known in concrete and it's all headline grabbing and speculation.

I follow a YouTuber who does workouts & meal plans. She has a video titled, "I'm being sued! For real." The video is like 12 minutes and 11 of it is just her vlogging. Any vlog that a beauty guru/lifestyle YouTuber does has the worst clickbait title.
Joey salads. He staged racist videos to make people hate black people. He straight up faked them and then looked like a total shit when he got called out on it.

Post a Craigslist ad in a different city for work on a film set. The rates advertised are double what people usually pay. The first season of a stupid Web series is linked in the description, and they ask you to go to the videos and tell them why you would be interested in working on this show that magically has the budget to shoot in a new city and pay you twice what others will pay you. Just for measly views
this isn't as bad as some other crimes listed in this thread, but I really hate it when podcasters/youtubers/streamers try to "spice it up" by eating really hot peppers while broadcasting. It adds absolutely nothing to the content.
And they all say the same thing when doing it. "today we're going to do something a little different!" No you're not. It's not different. Everyone knows that spicy things exist. Find a way to actually entertain people.
There was that one time EtikaWorldNetwork made a four minute video covering some fake Splatoon leak. He spent the first 3 minutes and thirty seconds talking about some dumb T-shirts he was selling and what was left of the video talking about the thing that was actually in the title/thumbnail.
I've got no problem with a YouTuber having an online merch store or advertising within their videos, but that was just embarrassing.
Can't believe nobody has posted this yet, but what Marina Joyce did. Acting like she was being kidnapped and needed help. Whispering 'help me' into the video and all this other fake drama for fews. pathetic.
People thought that Marina Joyce was being held by ISIS. They tried sending stuff like Marina if you are being held by ISIS like this because she wouldn't be able to comment or the terrorists would, you know, see it. After she was like nah I'm not being held by terrorists like why the fuck did you like the posts that said "like if you are being held Marina"
What do you expect? Back in the day, getting noticed on Youtube wasn't too hard. These days, unless you have videos that go viral, it's pretty hard to get subscribers quickly. This isn't about views, it's all about money and let's face it, people will do some stupid/pathetic shit to make money and they'll keep doing it as long as people watch their videos.

Irrelevant title in combination with boobs as the thumbnail. Or even worse, showing themselves "cry" with an all lower cap title followed by an ellipse, then video turns out to be something really stupid and cheery. Another one that I hate is channel fishers, those that try to put themselves out there by posting a link to their channel or asking sub for sub.

Pewdiepie went on fivver which is a site where you pay people $5 to do stuff. Paid two Indian dudes to hold up a sign that said "Death to all jews" while he recorded a youtube video of himself reacting to it.
The two dudes claim they didn't understand what they wrote, they got banned from fivver because of it. Pewdiepie claims he didn't think they'd actually do it.

Theres this guy who has around 800k subscribers now (not going to say who it is), but when he was at around 10k subs a couple years back he had a video where he vlogs with his 14 year old sister and asked for people to give them requests. The video got a lot of views compared to the other stuff he uploaded so he made it a series and said the next part would come out when the current part hits x amount of views. He said in the videos we could "dare" him or his sister to do anything and they would do it, and most of the comments were requests for his sister to do weird fetish based things. I think the whole time the guy knew this because he put in the small dares first and he threw in some dares people had for him and got them out of the way early so the stuff his sister did were the main attraction, he would then title the video based on that. Then one day he entered this competition and he made a video telling everyone to vote for him and in return he'll upload a video with his sister in a bikini and she will do anything we ask. He said things in the video like "I know there are a lot of horny guys here so you guys do me this favor and I'll give you what you want, it only takes 1 minute to vote but what you get in return will be worth it". All of his other videos at the time were pretty much just him calling out other COD commentators and doing whatever it takes to get noticed by the big youtubers or become youtube famous himself. At the time he was a small channel and the whole "youtube drama" thing wasn't what it is today so I don't think many people know about this.

I don't know about most pathetic, but the thing that annoys me the most is when a non-english video has an English title. This is especially common with tutorial videos. I hate finding a solution to a problem I'm having, just to find out that I can't understand the solution at all because it's given to me in a language I don't know.
Which in itself is fine. But when the title is in English when it doesn't have to be, I hate it.

Clickbait. One of the most idiotic things you can do as a YouTuber.
"Hurr durr let me make a extremely misleading title and thumbnail so I can dishonour my viewers trust to gain an extra bit of money and views".
I cut all ties from YouTuber's who clickbait. Roman Atwood, Fuckin fakey Lance Steward, etc. Such a shame too because I enjoyed their content.
Fuck clickbaiters, I don't fuck with them. If YouTube viewers all boycotted them YouTube would be a better place.
The breastfeeding channels are by far the worst..h3h3 busted them out awhile back. Basically women using breastfeeding as a way to show off their tits. The videos are extra creepy as fuck...and when I saw one for the first time I feel like I got a little too angry. Lots of my favorite tubers have been given shit from YouTube just for cussing..while these whores are basically stripping..with children.
Just to be clear..these are not "educational" in any way...and the comment sections are full of pedopervs...
"HEY GUYS, TODAY IM GOING TO EAT BABY FOOD FOR 5 MINUTES STRAIGHT, MAKE SURE TO LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE SO I CAN MAKE MORE VIDEOS. ALSO MAKE SURE TO COMMENT IF YOU WANT ME TO PUKE IT UP AND EAT IT AGAIN."

Paying for front page exposure like most people do.
All of shoenice's videos. I follow him and love him but of all his videos, the most pathetic one is either the human scarecrow one where he spends 4 minutes eating leaves or the one where he eats a ton of SpongeBob stickers in an alley.
You struggle to keep yourself hidden in the far corner of the dark closet. You attempt to calm your breathing to not give away your hiding place. Your situation could mean life or death. You barely have time to scream when a low voice suddenly whispers directly into your ear, "Audible has over 180,000 books..."
The people who use the title and photo from an original video people are looking to watch and the entire video is them giving their opinion on the video people were really searching for.
Onision recently made a video about how he has Parkinson's disease. He was sitting there shaking and talking about how he can't keep it secret any longer. It wasnt a joke, because there was literally nothing funny about it and he absolutely does not have Parkinson's disease, so I think it was just a pathetic attempt at getting views.
The most pathetic thing they do for views is beg for subscribers.

Surprised no-one has mentioned Lena the Plug. She's literally a basic ho who posts videos and photos online in the most skimpy outfits and uploads the most boring content ever. Anyways, she told youtube that she'd drop a sextape once she hits 1 million subscribers and the saddest part is that she's actually getting close to that number. What's more pathetic than that? She's on Pornhub anyways so before you think about subbing for a sextape, just search her name on Pornhub to find it.

Strip FIFA. So iirc basically a youtuber and a girl with huge tits play a game of FIFA, and when someone scores the opponent takes something off. The youtuber, who usually is a FIFA youtuber always wins because the girl never played FIFA. And she takes off her clothes (except for bra) and they just got a thumbnail!
Oh, also, they title the videos OMG STRIP FIFA WITH MY TEACHER (GONE TOO FAR)
I dont know why they do it, its not like they get a lot of views, but i absolutely HATE videos of products you want to research, like a review or unboxing and its just a fuckin crappy montage with stock photos, screenshots and crappy stock music, like this shit or this shit.
It was kinda hard to find those right now, there are a lot of legit reviews, but when a product its new they always show up and its annoying.

Fake prank or 'social experiment' channels. Guys that use their girlfriends for views. And while I don't mind reaction videos, I've seen shit like 'Sara reacts to kids reacting to Sara,' and that is just fucking ludicrous.
I get annoyed by all of the "I WANT TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH YOUTUBE PAYS ME!!!!!" videos everyone I'm subbed to seems to make.
If you want to say that your financials are private when people ask, fair enough. You have your right to privacy, so if you want to say "I don't want to disclose that", be my guest. You shouldn't have to disclose your day-to-day finances to some random stranger you've never met if you don't want to. It really annoys me when they make those click-baity titles like that just to say something vague like "I make enough to get by" or other nonanswers that they give in the comments anyway. That just reeks of being deliberate clickbait for the attention, since they know that the curious guy who thinks they can start a channel and be hot shit wants to know an idea of what they can make and will watch that fucker to the end if they have to.
I can't remember the name off hand, but one guy actually did share the page YouTube shows and showed his expected income and whatnot because he was wanting to be transparent about something or other, and if you want to be transparent with your followers, that's your right to do so, as it's also your right to dodge the question. But the deliberately deceptive titles meant to clickbait annoy me more than it rationally should.
Those bloody toy reviews. The few that I have watched are literally just kids playing with the toy and some incredibly basic information read out. All you're doing is showing my kids a toy they'll like and using them for views.
Fuck, I really hope that ShayCarl is doing something shady...he seems like suck a nice person.

Copy-pasting live streams onto Youtube with no editing. Especially when they are hour-long bitch fests about gaming, feminists, politics, etc. It's just farting in the wind.
I don't pay much attention to speedrunning but there was a guy called Cosmo Wright who used to play one of the Zelda games a bunch, got a world record I believe.
Then he started falling out of popularity and apparently went completely bonkers. Just googling his name answers enough.

In Argentina, a stupid youtuber FAKED BEING STABBED to get views. He said he was going to catch a drug dealer that sells to minors and when he tried to grab him, this "drug dealer" stabbed him. Everyone noticed the video was fake so after many attempts to deny the accusations, he gave up and made another video saying that everything was planed from the beginning, like, he made the video seem fake on purpose because he wanted to see the people's reaction. WHO'S GONNA BELIEVE THAT SHIT? What a moron.
Right now some female youtubers use nudity to get subs, my one friend told me of celestia vega when she had like 80kish, I guess at one point she gave out her snapchat and did nude or semi nude pictures, then it escalated to full out nudity, now she is promising to do porn at 1 mil subs and she recently passed 250k.
I don't know if it's pathetic but the ShoeNice has done some pretty extreme and weird shit for views like eating 87 spongebob stickers in an alley.

Anyone that posts of thumbnail of them crying. And they don't even cry in the video. Usually it has a misleading, clickbaity tittle like "Quitting YouTube??" (And they're not quitting. Usually it's some kind of Q&A with one of the questions being "would you ever quit YouTube?", and they're like "Nope!")

Proceed to do no research and spout off things you heard in an anime show this one time. Then proceed to claim you spent 10 days of research (that honestly a 10 year old could have done better) and basically use your popularity to spread lies and falsehoods about 11th century warriors. Some people should be ended rightly with a pommel like in the olden days. Bright side some of my favorite youtubers made some amazing rebuttal videos ๐

Sexual harassment in the guise of a 'funny prank'
"It's just a prank! Chill out, it's okay I grabbed your butt, I was only joking!"
Not exactly youtubers but i heard about a guy who streamed videos of him gaming on twitch and he was saying he needed views to get money since he was paraplegic.
One time the dude forgot his camera was on and go up started walking.
We have popular streamer in Russia who was jailed for 20 years, and now his friends beat him up for donation on twitch. 15k-20k people usually watching his streams. I don't know how this is fucking legal, since it's not acting. The worst thing I saw, they shot him in head through metal plate. He's still alive, he's making about 40-50k dollars monthly for it.

The latest thing for the beauty bloggers is to put their beauty blenders (essentially a jacked up makeup sponge) in a condom to blend the makeup better - or some shit.
A streamer by the name "legendary lea" would "accidentally" flash the cam live on stream to get a lot of viewers. Eventually she got in trouble and I believe she has stopped flashing the camera.

I read all of this and think two things to myself:
Thank god I apparently watch the normal people on YouTube
How out of the loop am I that I've only heard of one or two of these?
I'd say clickbait titles but as a youtuber with not many subscribers I have to be honest, it's REALLY hard nowadays to get people to watch your content if you're new, because so many people have used clickbait titles that it's at the point where if you dont do it too then you're not getting any views.
Click bait titles of any kind. I saw a vlog channel with the title "TERRIBLE BATH TUB ACCIDENT" with a thumbnail of their toddler in the bathtub with his head under water. You watch the entire 15 minute vlog and kid just tips over in the tub and his dad catches him.
That time when Sam Pepper pulled this "prank" on his friend of pretending to get kidnapped and shot.
Probably staged, but still wtf.

When a storytime youtuber embellishes their story so much to fool their prepubescent fans and hit the 10 minute mark. Also when they put stupid clickbaity ass titles to lure viewers in ie I GOT BANGED BY A TOOTHBRUSH!!!
Also if they pander to their audience so much to keep them watching? Like... no.

For those of you that don't know, Adam from NoJumper and his gf (Lena) are going to make a sex tape as soon as she hits 1m subs. It obviously worked. She's gained like 500k subs since she announced this. Idk, something just seems wrong about doing a sex tape in return for a certain amount of subs and revenue.

I spent way too long making a music video about how sweet pickles suck. It culminated in me dressing like Dr. Phil and having my mom film my dad waterboarding me with pickle juice.
This swedish guy who featured on Big Brother for a while started a prank YouTube channel, he didn't get that much attention because of how obnoxious he is, but there is this one video that stands out - one where his blonde bombshell girlfriend shoves a huge black dildo up his ass.

GrimsToyShow, a channel dedicated to wrestling action figures said he would make a porno with his wife if he won his Royal Rumble predications bet.
He did, and there has been no porno made.
But, he blasted the fact that they would make a porno in the lead up videos.
Clickbait bullshit thumbnails and rambling just to make the video longer.

When big channels quit doing youtube, sometimes other people buy their channel so they already have a lot of subscribers.
They just wipe the channel and start from scratch, but with subs that are inactive / dont even want to see the videos anyway.

Recording themselves talking and releasing it to a global audience after spending hours and hours editing the thing, then repeating the process on an almost daily basis for years, all while understanding and even promoting the idea of viral videos and the fact that, in the end, they will be as easily forgotten as the memes they referred to 3 years ago.
On a side note, I think it's kind of pathetic that just about every single video from every single channel practically BEGS for the viewers to "drop a like" or "hit that little bell after subscribing" "like us on Facebook, IG" shit like that. It bothers the ultimate fuck out of me, and I dislike every video that does that, out of principal.

Or, as this thread should be properly titled, "Tell me, how can I make some quick cash from YouTube?"
Relentlessly post links to their channel on reddit in the hopes of triguring one of those huge waves of "oh my god this guy makes such good quality content and gets no views, let's change his life" thingos...
Just about everything Roman Atwood posts is fucking click bait. I can't stand that dude. He has such "omg, this is crazy!!!" thumbnails or ones of his girlfriend half naked. He's fake af and has one helluva punchable face, imo.
Doing pathetic things for views is pretty much that ShoeNice dude's whole shtick. I don't know how he's still alive. That guy that smoked the ghost pepper comes to mind too.
Maybe I'm being a curmudgeon, I find there is very little dignity to be had on YouTube. There is some genuinely interesting, original content to be had (Freddie Wong is pretty good off the top of my head) but most of it, even the idiotically popular stuff, is pure garbage. I know I'm being a grumpy asshole but YouTube is such an utter dumpster.

I hate YouTubers who do ; I will "strip at 1 million" , "nudes at 1 million" or "sex tape at one million subs" videos. It has worked for at least 2 YouTubers as far as I know. I am all about being confident in your body and all but holy shit this just reinforces my belief on how cheap humans can be.
Forcing their videos to be as long as possible just because the algorithm favors that. I mean, come on, editing 101: Keep it tight and relevant. I don't want to watch 15min of boring filler in a 20min video.
Does anyone remember the Reply Girls? They'd take highly viewed gaming videos and then post a "reply" video with a thumbnail of them in a low-cut top.
The video would be 2 minutes of them mumbling through "this is a good video, it is funny - please like and subscribe!". This was a time when you could post a "Reply" video and it would show up on the right side of the original video - regardless of the quality of the reply.

There's currently a Siege Twitch streamer that makes his stream titles "$100 giveaway at 1200 viewers and 650 Followers". When he reaches that goal, he makes the title "$100 giveaway at 1500 viewers and 800 Followers". And so on. You get the picture.

Anything Joey Salads has ever posted. This man is the epitome of shit I hate. Hes one of those shit bags thats sadistic and is just an asshole to his friends for his own entertainment. Hes one of those "social experiment" Youtubers, where im pretty sure he made one video where he pretended to be a terrorist and threw "bombs" at crowds of people. Like HOW FUCKED UP DO YOU HAVE TO BE. This sentiment goes out to every other prank youtuber ever. Being a complete dick to people in public is not a prank. Theres also "viners" more so Instagrammers now but this bs started on vine, as well as youtubers that whore out girls. Itll usually be titled with "when bae....." Or "when she...." and its just an instagram hoe they paid hoeing out, then them doing absolutely nothing creative or inspiring whatsoever.
One of the most simple, yet annoying ones recently is all-caps video titles. It's just obnoxious and I wish YouTube could prevent it or limit caps to acronyms or something.. And now we have emojis creeping into video titles FFS..

Lets not forget about people filming their screen playing a youtube video, without even using a tripod so its shaky, and then uploading it again. Granted its dying as people learn how to mirror.
Jeffree Starr (makeup person & 00's MySpace person) made a video with another guy where they cut things in half with a hot knife. He decided to chop up a $5k Chanel bag.
HEY I HAVE TO USE CAPS IN EVERY VIDEO BECAUSE PEOPLE NOTICING MY VIDEO IS HIGHER PRIORITY THAN FOR THEM TO NOTICE OTHERS. I ALSO LIKE TO ADD SHIT LIKE (YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE END) EVEN WHEN THE END BARELY CONTAINS ANYTHING SPECIAL.
The most pathetic thing is that most the youtubers who do this are generally the ones that already have shit tons of subscribers and are rolling in money from before, as well as them having generally really low-quality videos where they just take some simple topic, improvise a bit and post it exactly 10 minutes long, even if there are already actual good an informative videos about the topic (taking the views from them).

This is a vlog referring to Dave's earlier comment addressing some of the comments surrounding his remarks in an earlier video. All the while I will be walking around my house and this music will be playing;
Probably a bit late but I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Trisha Paytas, the most deluded person on youtube who uploaded something like 10, 20 minute videos in a row a day of her crying about breaking up with her obviously gay boyfriend who went to a gay club, made out with a gay guy and put it on his snapchat. She snapchats while driving, makes videos while driving and eating in a mother fucking hummer death machine... She recently had a massive breakdown and posted loads of videos of her eating chicken fingers and mumbling about how she was a vampire.
Most of her videos are 20 minutes long, have a title like 'I'M LITERALLY THE MOST SPECIAL CRYING PERSON IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW AND MY MANSION ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO HOLD ME TEARS' and in 1 minute out of 20 she will talk about what the video is actually supposed to be about.
There's the twitch streamer who gets up and shows off her body to put a pin on her world map when someone subscribes. It's so obviously not about the map but about showing her butt and legs to encourage views and subs.
Probably already been mentioned but when they take someone else's content and put it in a small window and play it while barely adding anything at all. Just disgusting.
"Shout-out" videos which prey on younger people making videos or those struggling to get there videos seen. They make the person wanting a "shout-out" like, sub and comment on videos in the hope they get mentioned in a video. In the actual video you can tell the "shout-outer" has never watched any videos as they keep everything generic and mention things like "they have channel art"
I believe (hopefully) YouTube cracked down on these parasitic channels recently as I have been getting less spam

They always seemed to be Eastern European women with huge boobs spilling out of their top, who would loosely summarise what happened in whatever video they were replying to.
All the 'Bad baby ___' "angry kids on the thumbnail but let's give them a shitload of toys and have them give a 3 wo d review of a ball pit" videos. I haven't even watched any of these, just the title and thumbnails alone frustrate me.
Those assholes who physically harm themselves playing twister, like putting lit candles on the colors. They also went around and gathered things like spit, snot, and hair from others youtubers and made them into a cake and ate it. Hell even vsauce gave them something.

Drama Channels. People who get tons of views for making videos by talking about YouTube drama. I noticed some drama channels make their videos around beauty gurus and others center their videos around gaming and lifestyle channels.
Pushy Vegan Channels. Similar to drama channels but instead put YTers down because they are not vegan.

I'm still not sure how so many game trailer channels exist. It's just trailers made by publishers or developers, literally posted to a different (most of them have a shit ton of subs too) channel with a watermark. I guess it's purposely for promotion material and all but I don't quite understand how they get away with ads on those and doing absolutely nothing else on that channel. They're huge, those people essentially make money with no real input?
Not one thing/channel in particular, I'm just genuinely saddened that so much of YouTube is that clickbait bullshit "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!!!" shit, I've actually looked at one or two of them, and it's just some recycled crap that's never actually interesting or entertaining, and they always have millions of views.
Why? For God sake, people are obsessed with views and every time I go on YouTube for a song or something, YouTube puts it as my 'suggested/recommended' so it's always the first thing I see.
I went so far out my way to delete/unlike/block pages on Facebook that post clickbait so I don't have it on my newsfeed, and yet it's so hard to get away from unless I actually stop visiting YouTube all together.
"Story time" YouTubers. Videos titled something like " THE TIME I WAS RAPED IN TARGET" and stuff like that. Their titles are very misleading and clickbait. The video itself is horrible, being dragged out to 10 min just for the ad revenue, and the stories, if they even are true, are obviously exaggerated to the point where it's not even believable. And their channels somehow thrive off of this.
All of the new list channels piss me off. "10 things you're doing wrong that I totally got off of an article I found on StumbleUpon."
I was so happy when that cuck Santoro got caught ripping lists.

Last month a guy made to the news here in Spain , he was mocking people in street , he found a delivery man and told him "can you tell me where this street it" and when the other guy was starting to answer he added "anchovy-face". So the delivery man delivered a big hand open slap right to his face.
The youtuber went to the hospital to report an agression then right to police and reported it and published the whole thing in youtube.
It made to the news really fast, the delivery man was treated like a hero and the youtuber deleted everything and sold his channel to a company.

Trisha Paytas/Blndsundoll4mj's entire YouTube career. Her kitchen floor tantrums are infamous.
I hate Let's Players with a passion. I don't mind watching a vid of a game with audio commentary, but when you're doing over the top reactions to every little thing., it gets really annoying really fast.
I can't remember who did it, but some guy did a fake terrorist prank, where he dressed up in the stereotypical Muslim clothing and shouting "allahu Akbar" while throwing a bag to a group of people.
These two girls eating one of the worldest hottest peppers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cozHUec4sPc one of them starts freaking out and taking a panic attack while the other girls chest goes red, all while wearing tight gym clothes. what did they think was going to happen?
Lets see... Two things that tick me off
Dubstep intros/outros - not sure which channels they watch, but the big ones I know of don't do that.
Videos slagging on other YouTubers and people... Just for the sake of drama. I don't keep track, so it just seems like everybody is being petty and an utter shit, rather than being above it all.
IDK.
Shoenice eats and drinks crazy shit for views, but he actually lives by where I went to school and people tend to agree that he's just actually weird and isn't doing things for views.
Although not YouTube, I think all the Twitch streamers who show off their body to the maximum potential, just barely inches from breaking their ToS with Twitch, are pathetic af.

Deep in the dark places of YouTube I stumbled accross a video of some well known youtuber reacting to videos of girls caught cheating on their boyfriends. 70% of the screen was taken up by this guy's face, which was stuck in an ugly open-mouth grin the entire time as he spewed and endless stream of "oh oh Oh Oh OHHH". The video he was reacting to was barely visible in the bottom right of the screen. I made it through 1 minute before I realized I needed to seriously reconsider what I was doing with my time.
Literally everything that those shitty "gaming" channels run by 10-15 year olds with ~1000 or so subs do. You know the kind I'm talking about. All their channels look the same at first glance. Sometimes a bunch of them are friends. They only play Minecraft, CoD, FIFA, GTA and/or CS:GO. Tons of clickbait. They do shoutout series. They like to leave copy-pasted/bot comments on videos from small channels.
Those channels.

I saw a video by a guy called sernando or something and he called the video gta 6 trailer. I watched it and it was just modded v gameplay. His explanation was something like "this is what gta 6 might look like". I left a comment calling out the clickbait but when i went back an hour later to show my friends my comment had been deleted. I reported it for a misleading title but i doubt that matters. Hope someone with a large audience calls him out for the clickbait cancer that his channel consists of.

He's a streamer, but I recall Gross Gore talking about Krepo having sex with a minor without sources, after he was told that Krepo was accusing him of raping women. He got permabanned from Twitch for this.
Not necessarily for views, but many youtubers have extended their videos by 5 ish minutes to push them over the 10min mark so they can get more ad revenue

I used to enjoy Bria and Chrissy. Then they started to use clickbait titles and began having video thumbnails suggesting that something sexual was going on in the video, with half-naked thumbnails or heavy kissing or such. Of course it never happened anything like that in a YouTube video. But just three times of this happening were enough to make me ditch the channel
TL;DR: pretending there is sexual content to attract viewers. There is not
There are some small channels that post clips from shows that have an annotation as big as the video that you can't see that leads to another video. So if you try to pause, you end up leaving that video.

I saw a YouTuber use his 16 year old sister in skimpy clothes as clickbait on a thumbnail. He gets millions of views but that's still pretty fucked up.
The let's players who talk in crazy voices to get views from all the little kids this generation who love Youtube. As a full blown adult that watches let's plays... this annoys me.

There's one I can think of. He's abusive to everyone who once supported him. Even going as far as having giveaways for things such as cases for games he bought and traded in later. Being an entitled asshole with his patreon and even treating his parents terrible on camera. Under the guise of a YouTube play-through-er.
He's an ass to everyone who tries to help and as such his YouTube channel is dying. I'm not going to mention this one's name because I'm not sending any views even by accident.

Basically anyone who makes a video regarding some popular recent news and giving their unsolicited opinion
DarkSydePhil once made a video on his vlog channel about the whole Toby Turner thing. Spends like 15 minutes bringing his name up, makes the video about himself, and ends it with a big explanation that started with "I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT TOBY TURNER."
Exaggerated and/or fake story time videos with "shocking" titles with the intent to tell an exaggerated and ridiculous story to acquire views to the point of defaming someone for an innocent action.

Seems one of the norms these days is videos dedicated to slandering other youtubers unnecessarily or without proper evidence to back up their claims. People like Jamie Pine, Drew Gilchrist, Mike Jerry, Dodie Clark, Lewis Parker, ...oh, and during the time when popular Youtubers were being outed as sexual predators, these two musicians made a collab song telling the perpetrators to stop making YouTube videos.
Like, really? Telling people to get off of public domain? I agree, they don't deserve their social status, but you don't own the website and you're not the police. All they do is fuel a fire that is already burning fiercely.
EDIT: removing last paragraph as it wasn't actually relevant to the discussion
Check Sernadoe,s videos. He clickbaits by naming a video GTA 6 official trailer then if you watch the video it,s just him saying how a fan sent him this video and a bunch of bullshit.

Nostalgia critic for stretching the length of his videos solely for more views. 10 minutes was the perfect balance for his content, 12 was stretching it. 20+ is half of the awful skits, and over plays the few comedic bits.
A YouTube prank channel who pulled the race card when being kicked off a plane. He was just being a dick and was asked to leave and he pulled out his camera and said they were kicking him off because he was Muslim
They made a video about their reactions to reactions of reactions of reactions of what some guy did in a video game four months ago,
and then, made a follow up video to apologize to all the people the offended with their reactions,
and, then, made another follow up video retracting their apology because they were treated unfairly based on their gender,
and then, made one more video about how stupid the entire situation was, and what they learned from it, and thanking all their fans for their support,
and then, deleted their account,
and then, killed themselves on Facebook live because they realized life has no purpose and all anyone wants are likes and clicks,
and then, revealed in a follow up video posted on Snapchat and Instagram explaining how they survived and how thankful they are that they didn't die and proclaim that God "must've been looking down on" them
and then, got really angry, farted, and made a sandwich
and then, made a new YouTube account solely dedicated to the fascinating lives of indigenous species of Antarctica, ultimately, becoming the leading source of information of wildlife that flourish in the harshest of environments like Antarctica and similar climates,
and then, had a following of over three million people, with the top request for a future video to be about how penguins are monogamous creatures, and making that video, and learning the process that monogamy is not suitable for humans because we don't live on an ice island and depend on our significant other to do one hundred percent of the food gathering while the other sits on their love child for months at time, and decides to be an advocate for open relationships, but later figures out that he wants multiple women to love him, but, for them to love only him, resulting in a marraige made up of him and three other women, who then have seventeen kids, and then are contacted by TLC and asked to do a reality show of their life, but, only if they have one more child because Eighteen and Counting sounds better than Seventeen and Counting, and then, makes a substantial amount of money only to be spent on his eighteen ungrateful children, who he later murders, blows himself up, and leaves his wives lonely and sorrowful for the rest of their lives, who all become avid crocodile hunters, and make Gator boots to support their addiction to opioids and tax evasion, and eventually die of ovarian cancer, lung cancer, and early onset familial altzhiemers.
They were later honored at the Bellevue Memorial, just down the street from where the BGM happened.
THAT was DEFINITELY the most pathetic piece of shit video that I ever saw.
Almost never used the internet again, but, I recovered.
EDIT: The nineteenth baby, I forgot to mention, survived the whole ordeal. He's now an Ethics Advisor for Wells Fargo. Last I heard, he's doing a pretty good job.
Makes me think of Christian Guzman and his click bait titles like "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT SHE DID TO ME" or "HER FIRST TIME". And how he hooked back up with Nikki Blacketter just so that he could use her half-naked body for thumbnails.
The Siege youtuber "Sergio" Utter AIDS half of the videos he makes are "Sergio vs X Siege youtuber" and he basically goes and their stream, half of the time streamsniping and when he gets called out in the comments he says that he was in the stream to queue up with the other youtuber, and Sergio doesnt stream, he makes a youtube video so he can edit out his losses or when he gets killed. And in his channel description "I rek everyone, Pro or Noob"
Official trailers that are shitty ones they made themselves. I don't know no really get into YouTube politics and stuff but this was not investigated to annoy the crap out of me.

I'm surprised it hasn't been said yet. Re-uploading their old videos. A lot of the time their subscribers won't notice at first. A few minutes in and I confirm that I've seen it before. But they've already got the view logged
I personally don't like how a channel will become less genuine over time. For example, Now you see it produces amazingly well made deconstruction of film and is in my opinion really entertaining to see. Then you have other channels that were like that, creating well made content every month but, have gotten lazy with their work and it doesn't have that charm. I don't really have any examples maybe, Game Theory and how he hoped on the FNAF band wagon.

I remember this overwatch youtuber that did the most blatant click bait, he would put pictures of scantily clad overwatch females, use random images claiming he found new heroes, it was all true cancer, when I found his channel I immediately went onto a video and commented how scummy he was, that was my first time doing something like that, enjoyed it.
it lasted for years and they do that shit over and over. unless you were there watching it happen it's sort of hard to understand.
this channel is run by a guy who obsessively watches the youtube manbaby network. he does an ok job of explaining individual instances of fuckery. the guy i previously linked is way funnier though.
the problem you'll run into is that gamergaters -and these neckbeardy talking heads and their zealous following- tend to lie. a lot. and when they aren't lying they're being intellectually dishonest. and when they're not doing that they're basically just threatening to rape anyone they disagree with.
the plus side, i guess, is that any normal adult listening to their pap will immediately laugh at how idiotic they are. all it takes is like ten minutes of reading a given source material to catch them in a lie. it's not surprising, then, that their following is mostly made up of people who have trouble thinking critically.

Does anyone remember reply girl?
I mean she was kinda attractive on a primal level with the greasy hair, same low cut blouse in every video that showed the cleavage, and thick Mexican accent.
But damn, all her videos were just her saying, "hey there guys (wave) I just watched a video, you should check it out. Here is what kinda happened in it. Thanks bye." In a super mono tone unenthusiastic way.
Getting in flame wars with other YouTubers. This is like trying to make their own YouTube version of those stupid "reality" shows that just throw a bunch of immature, simple-minded people into a shared living space just to get entertainment from their drama.
What's worse is when people talk about them like they're celebrities of some sort.
If your YouTube channel is all about your opinion, you're not half as important to the world as you think you are.
I tried for the longest time to have no view begging/subscription begging on my channel. 200,000 views got me 60 subscribers. I've added little subscribe button by now, but ultimately because I never got the growth for the work I put in... I stopped trying. That's more pathetic than anything to be honest. Giving up.
When you say you're going to delete your YouTube account after reaching a certain amount of subscribers, only to continue putting forth your shitty content.
Convince the ignorant morons of society that what they do is unique and deserving of "making a living" off of. This is especially true of YouTubers whose channels are just them shitting out opinions, viewpoints, etc. that you'd find scrolling through your Facebook feed. This includes people (women) who abuse and exploit their sexuality/looks to get subscribers and such. I think maybe 10% of all "YouTubers" are actually legit, unique people with serious talent of some kind. The rest are just attention whores (sometimes without the "attention" part) who think they're way better than they actually are.
At any rate, I am not a fan of any YouTuber and think they're all mostly just (in general) a bunch of entitled millennial queers with narcissism.

The most pathetic thing imo is when youtubers act super nice and have the fakest persona. Then later they get exposed. I can't name some off the top of my head. But I do know a lot of minecraft youtubers who are doing this. It's sad seeing these kids being manipulated by these grown ass adults. And when they get exposed their viewers are like WAAAT? grantedtheirchannelsdieafterthat
Not Youtube content, but one thing that really pisses me off is really long ads. I use Youtube to listen to music in the shower quite often and there is nothing worse than having a 2+ minute ad between two songs. I swear I had a 9 minute ad once. Just make it 30-45 seconds and if the viewer is interested they will click it. I DON'T WANT AN AD THAT IS LONGER THAN THE VIDEO I WANT TO WATCH.
EDIT: I understand that most of these can be skipped, but I can't get to my phone when in the shower.
Dude it's been mentioned AD NAUSEUM. You don't even have to do a search. These are just a few. Plus if this is about pathetic things youtbers do to garner attention, why in the world are you linking directly to them guy bing them more attention?

Well, it might be an unpopular opinion or something, but I don't like it when people have gameplay footage running while they talk about completely unrelated stuff, often not even any info in the video or even information box that says what the game is. It's done only because it's an easy way to make a "video" and gets automatic views because they'll always show some popular, recently-released game.
This isn't strictly the Youtuber wanting attention more than the Press/News outlets that are slandering his name and company because of the crude humour he uses in his videos. It's pathetic how these so called 'news outlets' can twist something that was ironic or just for comedy around and bring the guy so much backlash. Now he is losing his company, Disney is falling out with him so he may be evicted again soon (if not yet). The fake news around him has gained so much momentum that even some of his friends and his family think that he is anti-semitic, a psychopath and a neo-nazi until the situation is explained thoroughly.

Youtubers who try everything they can so they can make their videos 10 minutes long, which is the minimum time allowed for you to put mid-video ads in.
Like those Youtubers who 'call Rockstar asking for GTA6' will literally include film of them dialing the number and waiting for someone to pick up just to squeeze every second of extra time in. It's so boring and pathetic.
Won't mention any names here (Pew The-Stupid-Fuckturd Pie) once stuck his ass to his dogs face (like 2 inches away, poor dog) and did his best to fart in his face. This was to test if the underwear he was wearing blocked out farts.

Pewdiepie threatening to close down his channel at 50mil subs, even though most people knew he definitely was not going to do that. He makes a shit ton of money from youtube so he most likely figured he could gain more subs if he threatened to close his channel down.

No one says they did. But they wanted to copy right the idea and then get at least a portion of other's profits.
And I don't believe "format"is in any way copyrightable. You're talking intro, then side by side of the ordinal video and the person watching it? That's a really basic concept seen everywhere from streaming to morning news segments.

The vast majority of reddit did when this shit was happening. But it's besides the point.
Of course people are allowed to make parodies. But his video was a terrible one, and that's not really his thing. And doing it purely to get views because it was everywhere at the time makes him no better than all the drama bullshit channels, in my opinion.
Those parents or kids destroy electronics videos, so fake. For example that kid who tried who had fit and tried to put remote in his ass. And anyone who asks "smash/hit that like button, it would really help me out..."
La Beast chugging two ostrich eggs (equivalent to two cartons of eggs) because some other youtuber made a video about him eating more eggs.

Would be great if someone would link to where he chuggs the eggs

"He said war was too important to be left to the generals. When he said that, 50 years ago, he might have been right. But today, war is too important to be left to politicians. They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought. I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids."

Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Colonel... that Coca-Cola machine. I want you to shoot the lock off it. There may be some change in there.
Colonel "Bat" Guano: That's private property.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Colonel! Can you possibly imagine what is going to happen to you, your frame, outlook, way of life, and everything, when they learn that you have obstructed a telephone call to the President of the United States? Can you imagine? Shoot it off! Shoot! With a gun! That's what the bullets are for, you twit!
Colonel "Bat" Guano: Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: What?
Colonel "Bat" Guano: You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
It's a 1964 black comedy about nuclear war. Mad generals, wimpy politicians, cowboy bomber pilots and the only sane man aware of what's going on is powerless to do anything about it.
Don't let the fact that it's in black and white put you off; this film is funny as hell even 53 years later.

I remember when I was a dipshit little kid, back when TV Guide was still a necessity, and saw the listing for that. I was like, "How the hell they gonna show two movies at the same time?"
Then my dad told me to stop being such an embarrassing failure and that it's just one movie. Now it's one of my favorite Kubrick films.

I knew a kid who was in a wheelchair in high school. Months into the school year there's a planned fire alarm, no big deal, everyone walks out of the school, stands out there for a while, walks back in when they tell us to. There's a gap between me and the wheelchair kid who's in front of me. His chair hit the door at the entrance of the school and fell apart. He stood up and put his chair back together, sat down and wheeled off. Myself and the kid next to me just looked at each other in awe.

My_Dearest_Leblanc ยท 24 points ยท Posted at 08:25:06 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
she fakes cancer, some times passes and I dont remember how but it was found out she lied. she never admits to lying and god knows why but the pussywhipped twitch staff didnt punish her.
her viewers are mostly people that are unaware how terrible of a person she is and people that try griefing/exposing her
someone took a song and edited it so that partway through it has her saying she was diagnosed with cancer and then they uploaded it to youtube
doing song requests she plays his bait, hears herself saying she had cancer so she gets scared and skips the song and is so embarassed and nervous she opens up the floodgates of cringe.

Apparently, she had previously lied about having leukemia, so someone requested a song to be played on her stream that had been edited to include audio of her saying "I was diagnosed with leukemia", which made her mad because she wants people to forget that she ever said that. Well, that's what I got out of watching the video and reading the comments.

Shoenice literally perm banned me from his Twitch chat because I was PogChamp ing. He said he "didn't care about our little faces." referring to emotes.
Someone donated $50 because he said something about doing a liquor slam. Shoenice then transferred the $50 from his Paypal on stream, to his bank account. Then ended stream.
I used to be subscribed, and watch shoenice for his humorous videos. Then I seen that he's actually just a piece of shit.

There's a documentary about him somewhere, I think it might be Vice who did it but can't remember... but it kind of goes into his life a little bit. I recommend watching it as it will show a lot of light on him.
He said he was in the military as a cook and helped feed some children somewhere over seas (it's been a while since ive seen it) and seeing the joy on the kids faces as they ate inspired him to try to help end world hunger. So he started doing what brought him to where he is now. He mentions an abusive childhood and being picked on so he used his strange "ability" to eat weird random stuff as a kid to get people to like him and not pick on him so much.
Granted you have no idea what's true or not, he is a major alcoholic and is probably delusional as hell and I bet most of what he says in the video is just random shit. He always used to have a buddy who would post videos of him blacked out and watching those were quite disturbing. He obviously has major issues and YouTube and his channel is most likely the only thing keeping him alive. He has said he quit drinking multiple times only to post a liquor chug a week or so later... he has videos of him eating lot fire crackers, chugging liquor in a library and one of his most recent videos he eats a sea shell. I kind of feel bad for him but he does it to himself.

We watched a documentary on Shoenice in my senior English class, and the dude has a shitty ass life for sure. He started doing videos and his wife kicked him out so he couldn't see his kids, and that's where he spiraled downwards.
Never really been a fan of his, but I've seen his liquor slam videos, and one where he eats a stick of deodorant and that was enough for me.
Definitely agree in the sentiment that he's going something wrong with him, and he should get some help. All he does (or did, at least) is try to move back home and his wouldn't have any of it while he was chugging liquor uncontrollably.

Holy fuck, I met that guy once.
I was probably 12 sitting in the car with a friend (also 12) and my younger brother (9) while my dad went into a pizza place to pick up the pizza we had ordered earlier. It was a nice summer evening so we had all the windows down, he could clearly see us. He was parked next to us.
He comes out of the neighboring barber shop and notices us, we didnt say anything or really even looking at him but introduces himself amd starts talking about how he'll eat anything and everything. We were kinda freaked out, we didn't know who he was or what to do. We didn't say anything. He gave us a business card of his and then left... dad didn't see, we didn't say anything.
This was in Upstate NY probably 7 years ago if I had to guess.

Each ad is around 1 dollars if watched for 5 seconds and then skipped and 3 dollars if watched in full. People like Pewdiepie or Markiplier have 1 ad per video at the beginning. Others like some of the Sidemen have 3 or 4 ads per video, which boosts their CPM by a very significant amount.

They dressed up a medium sized dog (maybe 25-30 pounds) in a costume that made it look like a giant spider, and set it loose in mostly deserted public places at night. So some unsuspecting lady would turn the corner of a dark empty train station and see an enormous mutant spider running straight for her. A lot of people ran away and it was hilarious (but also terrifying for the people involved, I'm sure)

In my state, this is the detention law:
"A law enforcement officer lawfully present in any place may, in the performance of his duties, stop and detain any person who he reasonably suspects is committing, has committed, or is about to commit (1) a felony, or (2) a misdemeanor involving danger of forcible injury to persons or of appropriation of or damage to property, if such action is reasonably necessary either to obtain or verify the identification of the person or to determine the lawfulness of his conduct. An officer acting under this rule may require the person to remain in or near such place in the officer's presence for a period of not more than fifteen (15) minutes or for such time as is reasonable under the circumstances. At the end of such period the person detained shall be released without further restraint, or arrested and charged with an offense."

You know...I think it's peculiar that Reddit mocks the "am I being detained" crowd and simultaneously treats cops as objects of maximum suspicion; piles onto insane babble like calling cops "the largest cartel in America", "a mafia", "thugs in blue", etc. ; believes every conspiracy theory however large or small about policing for profit, cops getting away with crimes, etc. etc. I've repeatedly seen people around here proclaim they avoid cops at all costs, to the point they're not sure if it's worth bothering with cops in life or death situations.
I mean, you'd really expect the hypothetical "average" Redditor to be in the "am I being detained" crowd?
Inb4 I get fifteen snarky ass replies of "It's almost like Reddit is composed of more than one person": Yes, but there are still several clear majority (or at minimum plurality) opinions on Reddit. That's basically the point of the voting system, for god sake. There's plenty of things you can say on here that virtually never get net-disapproved by the subset who vote upon it, and at least sometimes get immense popularity.

Although I am not part of this group, I think you can still be suspicious and distrustful of cops while understanding how the law actually works. The "am I being detained" people go out of their way to have altercations with cops, thinking they know what they're doing, while the people on reddit you described just hate/avoid policemen. This isn't some bizarre cognitive dissonance or some shit, it's just possible to both dislike "am i being detained" people AND cops.

I only sort of dislike cops, I am however terrified of them. They pretty much have absolute power and can really fuck up your life in the short term, sure eventually everything will likely get sorted out, but you are screwed in the short term.
For example: Lets say a cop for some reason wants to beat the shit out of you, He could just walk up to you and start punching you in the face, and if you retaliate you are resisting arrest or assaulting an officer and he could shoot you and make up whatever story that clears him. Sure the odds of it happening are really slim, but the point is that with out current system it could happen. This is why we desperately need bodycams, if anything only to put the public at ease.

Sure, it could happen, just like some criminal coming up and punching you. In fact that's exactly what it would be: a criminal cop. Truth is, most cops are good people, and when you need one, suddenly they're the best. Of course it may depend upon your skin color, and that really sucks, but let's give them the benefit of the doubt and also be watchful, as you should be with anyone carrying a gun.

That reminds me. In case your fear wasn't already bad enough. There was this guy, (I think his name was sheriff brown or something) who would, quite literally, torture or even kill the people he brought in. Including a pregnant lady's baby who later was killed by him. A baby.
I maybe paraphrasing, but I remember him saying that if they thought they were being violated or treated unfair, they are "lucky" that he does truly harass them. As in death. He may have also even called himself a fascist, through and through. This guy goes after you if you look at him remotely funny. Like, I'm not even kidding. He did that.
This wasn't even in the Wild West or some third world country, this happened somewhat recently (a few years at most) in the good ol' modern US of A. He's one of the few people I would consider having pure, inexcusable evil in their hearts.

I feel you on being afraid. I am a female and a victim of rape and a cop once told me that he would beat me and rape me in the back of his cruiser if he got a hold of me because I challenged what he said in a police statement. He was just making shit up, saying I said things that I didn't and blatantly lying. He said nobody would ever know. I still have warrants in my home state because I am afraid to even go there because I might get arrested, beaten, and raped. The cop filed charges against me saying that I had lied because he was angry that I said he lied on the report. He even came to my house to threaten me the night before and said he was going to put me away in a cage where he could come see me anytime.

one of my old friend was/is like this. I think the term is sovereign traveller. He drives and rides motorcycles without a licence because he doesn't recognize the state's laws (state here means THE state, not the USA).
One time he asked an RCMP officer to show his badge to "prove the fact that he had the authority to even walk up and talk to him. he had some of it on video. the officer just laughed. Why you ask? Because he was in full dress uniform (some of them wear the uniform but no badge number up here in Canada, just a name card and ID number).
"My uniform isn't proof enough?"
My friend said nope and walked away. He called for backup and his entire camping trip was spent in a jail cell until they verified his identity. He was bitching to all of us once how they're dictators and abuse their power. And I remember my other friend almost got into it with him because he said, "Hey John, if I was also there I would want the RCMP to come up to you and ask for ID and such. They would do it to me too. I give them my ID and go about my way. What you were doing was suspicious." And he almost got into a yelling match.

In the u.s. you don't technically need a lisence unless you're using your vehicle for business, which you can say "I'm not driving I'm traveling" and the police can't really do much besides waste your time, so he might have got it from us, I personally spend the 20 (usd) and just not have to mess with that headache.
It's always fun to watch them makes fools of themselves, because the way they act makes them look suspicious enough that the police have enough probable cause to search their vehicle, which gets turned into a pulling match, because they never, ever, want to leave their freaking car.

What's the overwhelming majority opinion in one popular thread on /r/all may have no support in one two threads down. You really can't draw any meaningful conclusions on the ['typical'] views of the reddit population as a whole from upvote counts.

When you post in different subreddits, different people read it. People that may all agree with or disagree with you based on the subreddit. If you posted "Trump is a great president" in the Donald Trump subreddit, you will get mostly upvotes. That doesn't mean a majority of reddit agrees, it's just that the people that read it are different
If you posted "Trump is a great president" in the hillary subreddit, you might get a different response.

I mean I fucking hate the police, but "Am I being detained?!" isn't the way to handle them, and will only end badly for you. Just like if any other guy approached you armed to the teeth making demands, you should be respecful, cooperative, and ideally have a camera running to bring up any complaints you have later.

They don't add anything what so ever and the second they add commentary their fans hate the video.

That's not an unlikely answer. In some countries you can pay for someone to private video chat with you while you both eat. These cam models, the tasty variety, are part of a large industry and typically suffer from eating disorders as they try to earn as much as they can a day, eating a meal for each client.
Although my example was culture-based, it could be that some people feel relief from loneliness by watching these content-copy ruffians.

If you have the power I could get rid of react videos by myself.
Remove every single react channel with 100k+ subscribers. There can't be more than 1000-2000 of them.
That alone kills the momentum of those videos drastically. Then go and remove any react video that is well made and leave the super shitty ones.
They can't do it because people would be in an uproar but barring consequences react videos can be dead within a month

Is it plagiarism if they cite the video they're sitting there watching? It's definitely uncreative and uninteresting, but if they credit the original source I honestly don't know. There's a moral quandary with stealing views that should rightfully go to the original poster, but is it something slightly different than all out plagiarism?
BigSphinx ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 06:36:08 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
IANAL but there's "fair use" laws that allow clips of a work used for review, parody, or "transformative" purpose (like hip hop sampling, although this is another subject entirely), but nothing legally allows you to reuse or quote an entire original work. The react videos are in gray legal area only because there hasn't been a lot of specific ruling on IP in the digital era (expect this to change in the next decade or so, though) and content platforms change extremely fast.
Marenum ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 07:36:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

The Fair Use doctrine has 4 parts:
the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
the nature of the copyrighted work;
the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
The whole "transformative" part falls under #1. Let's just say that somehow your embedding of the video in yours counts as that. We'll ignore #2, but we can leave it to say that it isn't any excuse for one of these "react" videos. #3 clearly does not help our case that it's fair use; the video was used in its entirety.
Now #4 is where this video is clearly and undeniably guilty. In general, a large class of law (tort law) is made so that people don't infringe upon each others' rights in ways that do harm (physical, financial, or otherwise), and this is the part where that is really established. While there may be some ambiguity in the statement of the first 3 points, this part may be argued in dollars and cents. Viewers who would watch the original video clearly have no incentive to watch it after watching the "react" video, it's not hard to argue that those views are directly taking away from the original's views (and consequently the market/value). If this react video instead used the original in a way which clearly boosts the value of the work, it would be much harder to argue against Fair Use.
BigSphinx ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 07:47:05 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Thanks for clarifying that. I guess the real problem is that Youtube and modern tech have created this sort of reposting culture that the laws weren't created for and are too slow to react to, and YouTube has no real incentive to strongly discourage (in fact they have every incentive to encourage it).
umaro900 ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 08:06:56 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
For sure. It is impractical (and unpopular) for companies to track down the ubiquity of minor offenders online. Many proposed pieces of legislation (e.g. the TPP) would make it more practical, but they also come with negative externalities. Without a clear solution on the legal front, the industries and producers have to adapt to this new landscape of funding and distribution with things like DRM, subscription services, and Patreons.
But YouTube does have real incentive to discourage this sort of plagiarism within the existing legal landscape. There is a precedent for companies which do not effectively police themselves to be shut down, in essence for being complicit in wrongdoing (e.g. Napster). Youtube doesn't have the means or the financial incentive to be a perfect judiciary in and of itself, but it at least needs to give a reasonable effort in the eyes of the law (albeit law which is very fluid at the moment).

Well he's transformed it into a new medium where his voice plays an essential part in the new content. It's not like he released his own version of the book with some kind of commentary. It's not a replacement for the experience of reading a book. Personally I'd say it's not as bad as just displaying the video in a smaller frame, but still in a gray area. But I have no clue about IP law, so take this with a grain of salt.

Did he read the entire book? I just googled it and could only find clips. If he read the whole thing, he'd need to license it and pay for the rights. Although I'm sure there's an argument to be made for his unique delivery being within fair use, but a court probably wouldn't agree.

The thing most people seem to forget is the country you are from's laws still exist. In my country, everything you create is your copyright. Technically I can go to court against somebody even though they 'claim' it's fair use.

Ah, I see. Well, in hindsight, I remember that what I wrote was more like if the person who claims it's fair use is also from my country. Because we've had cases like that, where people won the case because the law is simply above the terms of use.
The real case was with Facebook pictures, where Facebook tells in their ToS that anybody can use your pictures if they are set to public. Sure, but the law says otherwise.

If this was deemed not fair use in a court of law, that would have huge implications to the entirety of Youtube. If to some, adding value means watch his blank reaction to a video with a few words thrown in (and looking at his audience that seems pretty true, like it or not) then is should fall under fair use.
Take the good with the bad. If you don't like it, don't watch and don't watch videos where someone addresses it. All it does is send more traffic their way. That's kind of against the point of social exclusion.

The point here is that there are actual demands for videos like this. The populace is so dumbed down that they enjoy watching people do the same thing they would do.
Services like Twitch just shows people who enjoy watching other people do the same thing they would do.

I mean, the react channel is actually a legitimate react channel, they have good production, they have a specific age group that are reacting with a good number of reactees. They focus on the actual reactions and will never show the video being reacted to without someone having a proper reaction (unlike 'react' videos where most of the video is just the guy with his mouth open saying nothing). They then have over half the video as discussion about the video and provided background facts about the video.

I absolutely detest reaction videos. I don't understand how they even exist, let alone why people continue to make them.
I can't stand when I'm watching a video on youtube and the suggested videos are "reactions to x video I am currently watching." Yup, Shrek is Love, Shrek is Life is fucking weird, what is your point in recording yourself having the same goddamn reaction as everyone else who watched it for the first time?

Yup, when they show a clip, they focus is on the reaction, they never show a part of a video if no one is reacting. Also over half the video is generally discussion about the video and background facts that they provide to the reactees.

Some content creators actually encourage people to do react videos. Rooster Teeth tends to be very supportive of the YouTubers that react to their stuff, they just don't let the YouTubers monetize the videos themselves. In cases like that, they're fine since they get attention for the content creators and are frequently sought out by people who have already seen the original, but these tend to be exceptions.
For react videos that are done with the creator's blessings, I'm fine with them if the YouTuber isn't just sitting and watching, but rather discussing it and fielding discussion - that adds something and, as said, is done with the permission of the creator. When they either dead fish the video by just sitting there in silence or are using content without the blessing of the creator, then it's absolute cancer and should be stamped out.

There is a channel called Renegades React that I like to watch. They have a bit in the beginning where they talk a little bit about what they might watch, they then watch the video and laugh along with it, and then afterwards they take a while to discuss their thoughts on the video. It's not just a straight up cut and paste of the video, but rather they want to add onto it with their discussions and what not. I think that's fair to have to both react and discuss a video that they are watching.

Not always easy to find a friend who hasn't already seen your favorite movie. Especially once you've already watched it with them once.
Plus a lot of my friends don't really like talking during movies, whereas with react channels it's very much expected. Much easier to enjoy watching someone experience something for the first time if they share their thoughts with you while they're doing it.

On the other hand, there are reaction channels that actually add a lot of thoughts and discussion before, during, and after the video they're watching, which I would argue is sefinitely fair use. But this is not true of Jinx's videos, he is a cancerous little shitstain.
I think a system like riff.tv has would solve the issue though; letting the reaction and the original video be played and synchronized.

I like a few certain movie review channels that do reactions to trailers the day they are released, they're usually talking over the clip and dissect it afterwards to see what's in there, so usually you'll have to go and watch the original trailer anyway.
This is only for a few 'professional' channels, not some kid watching an action or superhero trailer and going apeshit when he sees anything cool happening.

About a year ago I got an email from Youtube saying "congratulations, your videos have enough views and we're gonna start letting you upload longer videos". I've posted like 1 video about 8 years ago. It's got maybe 100k views now. I still don't know why I got that email lol

I was allowed to post longer videos before I had even posted one video, probably because my account was verified and quite a few years old already.

MrBossFTW, LipsyJimmy and pretty much almost every other GTA YouTuber are amongst the lowest of the low when it comes to their videos.
Click bait thumbnail with lots of arrows? Check.
TITLE IN ALL CAPS WITH PROVOCATIVE DESCRIPTIONS? YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE ANSWER!
Stealing information from others without due citation and pad out the video to 10 minutes by using every possible means to make your sentences as inefficient as possible (Saying Grand Theft Auto Online every time rather than using the abbreviation, for example)? Check.
Devote the first 5 minutes begging for likes and subscribes and promoting their livestream? Guilty as charged.
The number of GTA YouTubers that are considered reliable and actually worth watching can be counted on one hand, and that fucking depresses me, and every single one of them have subscription counts that are magnitudes lower than these clickbaity assholes.

I work in YouTube, and with YouTube analytics- joke's on these people. Views fall off a cliff on >10 minute videos. I think people are more scared of 4 digit timecodes and less willing to commit to longer videos. Kinda like how it'll sell more if it's $9.99 rather than $10.00.

Preroll and banner ads. Btw ad blocker doesn't take money away from your favorite creators, google takes that hit for them so ublock away.
Plus most youtubers who make a living off YouTube have either google partnerships that give them most of their funding, or sponsorships like what PhillyD does to keep the lights on. So you really are only hurting google with adblockers.

It depends on the channel. Bigger channels work like that, but some smaller partnerships do not. It all depends on if you're getting funding independently of Adsense or how much or what the deal is. Just know that if you want to fuck over a YouTuber, don't watch. Don't dislike andleave a comment, just avoid the video altogether. .
Triburos ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 02:25:34 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's actually really interesting to hear all of this assuming you're being truthful about working in YT analytics.
Here's a question; what exactly do dislikes do to effect a video in general? Does each, individual dislike reduce the chance of it being shown to someone, or does it take a handful - like a percentage of all ratings - to block it from recommended filters?
Do an unhealthy amount of dislikes affect monetization for creators in anyway? As in does a video with alot of dislikes result in less profit per registered view?
I ask because I'm not really on the Youtube profit train, nor have I had the time or patience to track any of this information down. But it seems like more and more content creators don't care if their video is majority liked or majority disliked. Just as long as they're getting enough view time out of someone to register a view in the eyes of the system so they can get paid. So I'm curious what dislikes bring to the table.
And while on the subject, what exactly does commenting on a video do to help the video grow in exposure?
drawingdead0 ยท 17 points ยท Posted at 02:42:35 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's unclear, and part of what I do is investigate that data. I work for a YouTuber, not YouTube itself so I don't have the exact algorithm information. The data we've gathered so far isn't enough of a sample to be rock solid but so far there's little correlation, if any, between likes, dislikes and views. Genuine youtubers will pay attention to dislikes, and if there are a lot they'll self-evaluate. But that's predicated on the youtubers giving a shit about what the fans think.
Triburos ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 03:04:17 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Ah that's what you ment by doing work with YouTube, gotcha.
And yeah, I've always had this suspicion that there's sort of a weird disconnect between likes, dislikes, views and what not.
It feels like they should be more entwined. But I mean... If you get a majority view, you're getting paid. So a dislike isn't really going to hurt you that much unless they drastically effect video exposure.
drawingdead0 ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 03:35:32 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The idea YT has is that engagement is a better measure. If a video has a bunch of clicks but they leave right away, that actually hurts the video in terms of how often it turns up in searches or related videos. And that captures true engagement rather than only the population of polar extremes. It also does a better job of fighting blatant clickbait. If you click on "MILA KUNIS NUDEZ" and immediately recognize there will be no nudez, you leave right away, YouTube figures out this is deceptive bullshit and it hurts the video for the future. There's a lot more that goes into it though.

Dislikes can actually help a channel, all interaction help rank a video higher. So like, dislikes, shares, comments all do much the same thing. A video with a ton of views and no interaction is an obvious flag that it has been viewbotted or extremely boring. The only downside is a video with a lot of dislikes has a higher chance of the viewers leaving the video early, which will hurt audience retention. Which is very important to where the video ranks on search and suggested.

No... I work for a YouTube network (also have a YouTube channel), AdSense only pays for monetized views. Using adblock the channel will earn nothing, also views from embedded sources that don't have ads will earn nothing. Probably over half of my earning are lost due to people using adblock.

That's great, I didn't know that. I don't want to sound pretentious, but it seems like most people take YouTube for granted and feel entitled to free content without ads. Something has to give, and I really don't want to go back to network television.
I hope the climate improves, because YouTube is pretty horrible at communicating with content creators and viewers alike.
And overall, YouTube red is pretty half baked, but it's the best we've got right now.

Honestly, it's not even that bad, he threw his G2A logo into the intro logo part, and filled the extra time with his normal content.
He just also ensures that every video is over 10 minutes, and enabled mid-vid ads.
And I don't do commercial breaks. I'd happily resub and ignore the G2A stuff if the mid-roll ads went away.

Verlisify says hi..
This guy can somehow turn something that should only take 30 seconds to explain or tell and turn it into a 10 minute video. Also all his titles are all caps and he uses click bait thumbnails.. and he does this for every single video.
Best part was when he made a video defending his videos and that video was 10 minutes as well.

The big thing about this is that it just doesn't work as well as condensing your video. With people getting fed up of waiting, they'll just leave, and you won't get as much watch time

evebrah ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 16:39:16 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
That's like kids shows that have clips that get repeated every episode that they can copy/paste in.
That includes lengthy starting intro and closing credits of course but also scenes like team rocket going through their motto, power rangers transforming then putting their combined weapon together and then summoning zords and combining it in to the megazord, etc. I mean add in the copypasted teleportation scenes, ritas 'Make my monster grow', and outside shots of the angel grove community center and the original power rangers was almost half filler....which is pretty cheap considering the fight scenes were copied from pre existing Japanese shows. Lowest budget hit ever.

Does he still stream? I remember years ago when he was still CyanideEpic, it seemed like he was going to "break out" and become a bigger streamer (1000(+) concurrent viewers per stream). He rented an office space to set up an official streaming studio and everything, back in the days of LookAtMyGaming. But then his stream just kind of died.
If I remember correctly he wanted to be a variety streamer but got shoe horned into playing minecraft and his minecraft viewers never really stuck around for other games. It's kind of a shame what's happened with him.

Sub for sub. Ugh, especially when their channel has nothing to do with mine.

I do let's plays, I don't want to sub to you in the first place.
It's like they try and hold their sub/like for ransom until you sub/like them, without even the courtesy of checking if you would even be remotely interested. Or if their one sub would make a difference.

It's always the super tiny channels with like 50-300 subs or less who message/comment with that sub4sub crap and the like. Or, my favorite--either a comment or direct message that goes something like:
"Hey man, <generic compliment about your videos>! I also have a channel where I do <subject of their channels, about 50/50 chance it's even remotely related to your content>. I'd love it if you'd check it out and maybe sub! <What I really want is for you to shout me out and give me free publicity>!"

I think the really big channels just have a bunch of comments in general, so they probably get balanced out and ignored, but they probably get a loooot of grubby comments. It's funny, I think I've gotten a comment fitting that exact description from a chanel that was my size or bigger before, too.

Upload a video with a ridiculous thumbnail/title that has nothing to do to with the video.
And if it DOES play a part in the video it's usually a small portion toward the end of the video.

I don't mind when channels do this knowingly, like as a way to mess with their viewers in a funny way. Like OfftheRanch does that for a lot of his vlogs and it's actually amusing because it's like "how is this title and thumbnail image gonna come up in the video?" IDK as long as they can make it sorta relate and make it funny I don't mind.
Totally agree that it's shitty when it isn't done that way though.

RomanAtwood has perfected this technique. He has 20 minute long daily vlogs where he just records his day and every single video has millions of views and upwards 90% ratings. His titles are always a click bait, like "IT'S OVER" (thumbnail has him hug his gf, implying a break up, but nothing actually happens in the video) or "WE FINALLY DID IT" (happy people in the thumbnail, nothing noteworthy happening in the video).

i'm aware there of the intended and the common actual use for the system is. Its just that your entire steam library is usable by 1 person at a time. when the owner goes to play a game, if that one person is playing in normal online mode they get 5 minutes to stop.

I don't mind the originals I find them quite entertaining! It's when dumb lifestyle YouTubers do it in their own back yards in shorts and nearly kill themselves. It's stupid and dangerous. A girl I used to be subscribed to (I unsubbed because of this) did it on her porch in shorts and was cutting through sparklers. It burned through her table and her porch.
And of course the '$5000 item vs 1000 DEGREE KNIFE' is just wasteful.

In general I thought the idea was really stupid and didn't watch them except for the one Jenna Marbles did which was pretty funny. She did 100 layers of nail polish, foundation, lip gloss, spray tan, and 50 layers of fake eyelashes because she didn't think 100 would fit on her eyes, all at the same time. I just like how over the top it was. Plus I like Jenna in general, I think she's usually entertaining.

If you found that entertaining I also recommend her version of the full face using only highlighter challenge
https://youtu.be/6Un57W0eN1o
She starts out with regular makeup highlighters (super shiny crap if you didn't know) Around 2:00 mark she breaks out legit ink highlighters. At 4:00 you can see the full effect- the eyelashes look freaky. And then she goes highlighter crazy.

Onision is one of those YouTubers where I won't even look at his videos for ammunition, because I'm worried my adblock will slip up and he'll get a penny of revenue from me gathering material.

Don't worry about giving him revenue, YouTube goes by how long a person watched the video. So if you clicked on the video just to read the comments, you'll give him a view, but he won't get any money because YouTube can see how long a person watched the video for, and they won't pay him if people only watched the first couple seconds.

There's a shit ton of drama with him right now that involves a slew of people calling him out for being an abusive shit because of what happened between him, his wife, their ex-girlfriend, and her friend.

He panders to a younger female demographic. If I remember correctly, his Instagram/Facebook photos are all mostly done in a way to emulate a "teenage heartthrob" vibe and tries to look very cutesy.

He actually has bullied suicidal viewers many, many times. He does the same thing with viewers who self harm; he calls them weak and "overdramatic" for feeling that way.

I'd just broken up with my ex a few years back and she sent me one of his videos concerning depression & cutting etc, and how you shouldn't be with someone who suffers from mental health issues, as justification for our break up.
Now, whilst in retrospect I'm glad we broke up because she went more than a tad weird in the months after, how much of a shitty person does he have to be to make a video that, because of his viewers' general demographic, will make them feel even worse about suffering from mental health issues and continuing its demonisation.

I used to self harm and watched it when it came out and it sort of guilted me out of doing it, which was pretty unhealthy because it did make me feel fucking pathetic but I guess it worked.

Yeah I just felt even more ashamed of myself and moved on to an even worse depression just without the cutting. It didn't last forever though and I started again

drillgun ยท 65 points ยท Posted at 07:07:23 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Shilo is currently 24, and Onision is 31 now I think, keep in mind this happened a few years back which freaks me the fuck out even more now since I thought Shilo was around his age at the time.. I don't think it was alzheimers, but Shilo has mental health problems and I think physical health problems so it's possible she had forgotten him due to one of those, the original video is deleted but thankfully people saved it and I remember when he uploaded it, I was a subscriber at the time and his treatment of her really disgusted me, he 100% should've called a doctor especially if this was due to health problems, not filmed her and uploaded it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz_9s9SgQao (Sorry for the copy paste link, I'm not really sure how to put links in text here).
Edit: This all happened in 2011 I believe, meaning Onision did all of this drama to an unwell barely-adult, considering she would've been no more than 17 or 18. With his track record of viciously "calling out" every single ex he's had, he shouldn't be allowed to exist.

Joy has a whole series about Onision on her channel.

It's not that they're bad per se, but while some channels have matured with theirs audiences (like the audience was 12 when they started and now they're 18 so the content is geared toward 18 year olds) Ian and Anthony have stuck with what makes money, the videos intended for 12 year olds work so that's what they make, they're pretty good guys in real life.

I've gotta agree, their view counts seem to be lower nowadays, they changed a lot by churning out videos more frequently and by hiring more smosh members/actors.

The view count rarely even matters anymore. They cram more than 3 ads into every 2nd channel and Games channel video, which skyrockets their CPM to well beyond what they need to keep producing content comfortably.

The first time I heard of youtube was one of my friends telling me to check out his how to be ninja video back in 2007.
The site was so much simpler then. It used to just be bored kids posting hilarious videos before corporations on YouTube were ever a thing

I remember back when youtube videos were pretty much expected to be low-quality, it was weird if it looked professional and high-quality.
I think Vine brought that back a little.

lonelygirl15 started out as what seemed to be a normal teenage girl's vlog back in 2006. There was this huge discussion of whether the vlog or the girl were real or not, and a lot of fans got together to point out inconsistencies in her videos.
makaronsalad ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 05:09:00 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
lonelygirl15 was a popular vlogger on Youtube starting in 2006. I don't know the background of everything that she vlogged about as I was never an avid watcher but according to Wiki there was a complex story besides the teen drama she vlogged about. She got really popular in the summer of 2006, showing up on the front page a lot and generating a lot of conversation about her life and whether or not she was genuine. She was really one of the first Youtubers to amass such a vocal and interactive fanbase. People got really into it.
ย
Keep in mind that this was before Youtube offered ad deals with content creators so there really didn't seem to be a clear reason why someone would market themselves as a genuine, totally normal teen vlogger when they actually weren't. Let alone multiple people, because she had friends show up and create their own channels to corroborate her story along with their own. Watchers of her channel were really suspicious, though. One of the biggest reasons was how insane her story seemed. Another was the quality of her videos was way too good for the time. Especially for a girl supposedly just vlogging in her room and not part of a comedy or production company.
ย
In all, it took about four months for it to be confirmed as a hoax. There were some spinoffs and she kept doing videos for awhile after the reveal but it was never anywhere near as popular a channel as it was that summer. Youtube had created a really unique set of circumstances wherein this could have happened and been feasible in reality and part of its downfall was that it was too high quality. Early Youtube was weird, man.
Here's a playlist of all the videos in her story if you want to check them out. Most are very short.

RWJ started like 2 months before Tosh.0 premiered, both in 2009. But since it probably takes longer to produce a TV season than regular YouTube videos and considering that RWJ wasn't instantly famous I'd say they started right around the same time.

Wow, great forethought on that. I'm kind of confused about some of the differences in quality. I understand HD is crisper and such, but I didn't know there'd be such a color quality difference. Could it be that the one on the left is from a shitty download or something too?

This is so true! I fondly remember watching Vsauce back in 2011, 2012 and it had a different vibe. It was more home-y if that makes sense. The current channel is still great but the production quality going up has also given it more of a generic vibe.

Totally the same for me. We were at a family gathering and one of my Uncle's friends asked us if we've ever heard of this one funny video. We said no so he went over to the living room PC and we all waited for it to boot. He loaded up the video and everyone was crowded around to watch. One of the first YouTube videos I've ever watched, and the whole family loved. After that, my cousins and I delved deeper into this new site and we laughed so much. Then we got that video of the car driving down the curvy hill and... You know... That one. Even still, early youtube was a great experience. We absolutely loved it. I wouldn't switch what we have now, but I wouldn't go against going back to the roots a little.

Smosh, RWJ, and EricSurf6 come to mind. REJ has declined. ericSurf6 isnt huge but still big. Smosh has been like top 10 forever in some way.
TheYoungTurks has gotten huge this election season, was only kind of big before and I remember it being tiny like 10-15k subscribers a couple years time before 2012 election cycle, had like maybe 7 people instead of over 70.
Im blanking on this other one aim trying to remember. Edit: Its Jon/Jogwheel

I think he made a lot of good points about her hypocrisy and it seems like a pretty solid argument about why she should probably calm down on her calling him out.
I don't buy the argument that "either all of it's okay, or none of it's okay." Humans are perfectly capable of creating vast spectrums of okayness, and not everything in the world has to be logical. Pure logic isn't necessarily the best way to approach the world. That was kind of the entire point of the character of Spock, for example.

Ever since I started noticing the h3h3 stuff showing up on the front page regularly I've been fascinated by how completely non-compelling the material seems to be to me. For the most part it seems like just bashing mentally unstable people which is not by any means barren ground for humorous content, but there's this earnestness behind the silly outfits & faces- like what they're talking about are important problems for society- that I find a little unsettling.

I was a 25 year old man and even one on one they would rip me apart. They are just top aggressive and feel invincible. They don't think about things like "huh, maybe I shouldn't punch someone in the back of their neck, because that might kill or paralyze them."

Wouldn't that put me on equal ground, then? And I was a little dude in high school, and no one I fought was as small as me.
Kids in high school have no idea what they're doing in a fight, and most of them haven't been in a fight before. They're also nowhere near their physical peak, and are much weaker than an adult male. A guy in his 40's or 50's that looks out of shape is still typically much stronger than a high schooler. Dad strength is a joke, but it's somewhat based in reality.
I fought adults and college students in high school as well, and they were stronger and had a bit more of an idea of what they were doing on average.

YouTube does have systems in place for creators to tackle this sort of thing:
https://youtu.be/ZM9Z9us-urI?t=8m39s
Ultimately it is possible to fool ContentID, especially if the infringing video is cropped and/or in some sort of frame (see all of the full movies that get uploaded), but it's always possible for creators to do manual claims/takedowns if they find their content has been taken.

The thing with react channels is they need to be transformative. Jinx is a scumbag, for instance. He plays the whole video and barely has any reaction. Whereas in the case of FBE, H3H3 or IHE's Trying to Watch, they actually provide some commentary and add their opinions on the topic.

He's one of the few genuine content creators on Youtube, along with Captain Disillusion, CorridorDigital, Idubbbz, H3H3, VSauce, Dunkey, and FrankieonPCat1080p. There are others I know I'm forgetting, but these guys rarely disappoint me.

his argument that people use certain ableist or transphobic/homophobic slurs but cross the line at the n word is dumb, because a lot of people avoid them altogether. besides its impossible to ignore the context the word has. sure its easy for a white dude whos had the privilege of living his whole life without having to think about race to say that its just a word and people should just choose to not get offended, but the reality is that people still espouse these hateful beliefs. using these words validates the use of it by other people, whether you say its ironic or not.
in other words just because he says hes being ironic and that hes actually a hero for taking power away from the word, doesnt mean he isnt. the reality is hes just feeding into these hateful ideologies and leading a lot of impressionable young kids to believe that this kind of behaviour is okay
finally, hes just a piece of shit for stalking and harassing that one girl, no matter how stupid her actions may have been

I watch a YouTuber named Its Black Friday who occasionally does reaction videos, but she makes it more of a discussion. She usually talks beforehand on what she expects to see and how excited and interested she is to see the video, pauses it two or three times (if not more) to fully explain her emotions and such, and talks about it afterwards and gives it praise and criticism, as well as talking about how it did or did not live up to her expectations. And she has a very expressive face, so she can nail reaction videos.

Seriously, this is the one that perplexes me the most. I've gone on youtube and seen a video title that sounds interesting to me and then I open it, and it's someone reacting to what I thought I was gonna watch. So stupid. Like, I don't want to watch you sit there and watch what I actually want to watch. And it's never good input and reaction, it's always just stupid comments and laughs thrown in cause they can't just sit there and do nothing. I immediately turn it off ever single time. I'll never understand that.

Some reaction channels are quite good, the ones that actually make comments during the videos and discuss them afterwards. Blindwave are really great for that.
Then you have cunts like Tyrone Magnus who for some reason has nearly 1million subscribers even though he does absolutely nothing.

Reaction channels are the absolute worst. After watching the Broly Abridged video from TFS, I noticed a lineup of reaction videos for it, all about a minute longer than the original, and all with at least half the views. I watched a couple just to see exactly why people watch these channels, and none of them contributed anything interesting at all. They were all monetized, though.
These people are getting paid to repost. What the fuck.

There is this youtuber in France called mathpodcast who was copying an American youtuber. He would steal the jokes, the writing, and just reshoot the thing, then upload it as his own creation and not even mention the original creator. One day some people noticed, and this story (combined with the very weak defense from mathpodcast, as well as some other shitty or pathetic stuff he did) went viral, resulting in the guy getting lynched by the French youtube community. It was kind of funny.

You're right, I sometimes do see trailers I would have never seen, but I don't like having them steal all the trailers and reupload them. Maybe a weekly video showing a short clip from major trailers would work? They could either name or show short clips from new trailers, then link to the full video.

He got a lot of trolls in the comments and people IRL mentioning it to him as his channel was what everyone knew him for so he removed the video and when we searched it up for a joke way later we found some guy ripped the video and all the videos are just stolen for various channels.

A long time ago, a youtuber named Raw Instinct was called out by a youtuber named iFlyillini for taking the concepts of his videos and Tmartn's videos (this was during the call of duty days) and copy them almost scene for scene.

That happened to me with a small side-project kind of channel I had (please don't bother asking, all I did was make audio spectrums of songs with the artist's permission). All I did when I saw it pop up in my recommended (yes, my very own video on a different channel) was flag it and start a copyright dispute. I ended up winning and the video was taken down in a matter of a day.
A few days later I was sent an email by the guy who ripped my video begging for the dispute to be closed - basically, he wanted me to unflag it and he would take it down from his channel. I understood why he wanted this so his channel didn't have any flags preventing him from making money, so I let him off and warned him that if I saw him copy another video from any channel I would flag it. He stopped uploading after that.

Adam Saleh is a YouTuber notorious for faking videos. This is typical of YouTubers and wouldn't be a huge deal if not for the nature of his faked "social experiments."
In the past he's been caught out faking a video where he and his friend are searched by a police officer because they are wearing Muslim worship outfits. The officer was of course a paid actor.
More recently released a video claiming to have been kicked off an airplane for speaking Arabic. Several witnesses on the plane later confirmed he had been causing a scene with the aim of getting a reaction from passengers for a video. When he was removed he turned the situation on the airline, Delta.
Attempting to incite racial tension for views and attention, pretty pathetic.

Not so much depressurized as no oxygen is being actively pumped in and it's below freezing. Obviously, it will still be pressurized because the you need to pressurize the entire tube of the plane or it'd get crushed.

How often do you open your bag the moment they are off the conveyer? Never. Most people take hours before their bags are unpacked, and even then, they are often still cold. Besides, many things like shampoo are already semi solid, and have a much lower freezing point then water. They do get cold, but never freeze.

If they had experienced -30 degrees for hours, I'm pretty sure they'd be at least cold/damp by the time I got home/destination and unpacked, which takes less than an hour where i am at the moment. I personally think they just say its so cold so people don't try to smuggle on there.

That's possible, I don't work for an airline. Although, there definitely are different luggage departments based on planes. They might have meant the plane that youtuber went on had a unheated luggage department due to low price, destination, etc. Rather than making a general statement about all planes.
flagsfly ยท 8 points ยท Posted at 22:14:47 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Hmmm, actually seems like I was wrong. While the holds aren't heated, bleed air that gets routed to the cabin gets sent to the cargo hold afterwards. A cursory Google search reveals most planes keep the temperature above the single digits, Celsius. So it's cold, but not that cold. Of course, depending on the plane your luggage could travel by itself or in containers, so that's also a factor.
Different compartments can be maintained at different temperatures, but generally your luggage is not getting shoved in the heated compartment specifically. Pets and other live cargo get that treatment.
I think when I was thinking of below freezing, I was thinking of the kids who stowed away in the wheel well of the aircraft.

Not true at all. Usually the front compartment is pressurized and heated like the cabin. It's where all animals go so if he go out into the front aft he could probably survive. But bags rarely go into the front unless they're connecting bags or if the plane has a ton of bags since the back usually gets them all due to load distribution.

The pressure difference is less than a single atmosphere. You exert more force on your bottles and sealed containers with a gentle squeeze of your hand than they experience in a depressurized luggage compartment. The idea that things just explode in depressurized environments is more Hollywood than reality.
Unless your container is already pressurized to the point that it is about to burst, a <1atm difference isn't going to hurt it.

Actually the vast majority of cargo compartments on commercial passenger planes are pressurised because it's not very feasible to only pressurise half the fuselage. About the only cargo holds that wouldn't be are the ones that are behind the aft pressure bulkhead. And I think Fairchild makes a plane that has a nose cargo compartment, which likewise isn't pressurised since it's fore of the pressure bulkheads.
But otherwise the entire fuselage is pressurised because otherwise when you get to altitude the cabin is gonna drop into the cargo compartment from the pressure differential. (This has actually caused crashes when a tear in the cargo half of the aircraft skin caused the cargo hold to rapidly depressurise. The higher pressure in the cabin forced the cabin floor into the hold, severing controls to the rear flight surfaces. Modern aircraft generally have panels in the floor between passenger and cargo areas to prevent such a thing from occurring these days.)
Now, temperature is likely where the problem is. Because generally heating the cargo holds is optional. You have to pressurise them, but why spend the extra fuel to heat that air if you don't need to? If your cargo manifest doesn't state that there will be live animals or other temperature sensitive cargo in the holds, you're probably gonna switch the heating off. Which would cause issues for anyone in the cargo hold.
But honestly, even that's not an issue because there's no way a human being would make it into the hold in a piece of luggage. For one thing, the weight. You'd have a massively overweight bag, which would certainly raise enough questions that the bag would be flagged for extra screening if it got past check-in. Add in the scanning that checked luggage goes through, and the conveyor belt system most airports have for sorting checked bags (look up a video of one of the really complex big airport ones) that would put a world of hurt on anyone inside a bag... and not to mention that baggage handlers are not gentle with the bags by any means... yeah, good luck getting on a plane as checked luggage.

Cargo heating is generally only used if they have live cargo such as dogs/etc. Source, brother and his gf are both pilots for carriers in Aus.

He actually recorded himself saying "let's count to 10 loud and see if people freak out". And some videos show him standing up and selfie singing mid flight. I'd want to punch the grown ass fucker that acts like a little kid on the crummy little plane

Exactly. He was kicked for being an annoying little cunt, not for being Arabic. Victimhood is strong with him and his supporters. Either create or find personal offence for anything and everything.

Yes, culture was a bad word, however the Arabic region describes a specific subset of countries just like The Christian region or the Slavic region. Also, the whole "all Arabic cultures are different" is true, however I used it as a general term encompassing all people coming from Arabic countries. That's like saying you can't use the word Muslim because Sunni Muslims and Shiite Muslims are so different.

Wa alaikum salaam. I think there are too many differences between each country (or even each tribe) to say "Arabic culture" but it all depends on what you compare it with. You could say Arab culture vs. Western culture for example, like you might say black culture vs. white culture.
At the end of the day it's just words. If people don't understand the difference between each country that's okay. Most likely they will never have to know the difference.

I've always thought of the Arab World as analogous to Latin America. A Bolivian and a Dominican are going to have completely different cultures and cuisines and even different strains of the Spanish language and different racially as well but they still belong to the blanket Latino culture. Likewise a Moroccan and a Kuwaiti are extremely different but still Arab.

I'm at work but people have done exposure videos on him on YouTube. A few of them showed clips of those videos.
Edit: he didn't record himself doing the countdown on THAT flight but passenger testimony says he was shouting something in Arabic loudly. (I never claimed he was kicked off for it) here's the countdown video he's done Counting down in Arabic on a plane experiment from 10:41 onwards.
When he was kicked he evidently actually shouted Arabic stuff a few times.

The real reason he and his buddy got kicked off the flight was because they were being loud and disrespectful to other passengers. A lady did an interview about how they were acting and she said she asked them to not be so disruptive or something and then they started yelling at her. I just can't believe they had the audacity to make up all that bs they did in their follow up video. Real faith-in-humanity ruining crap right there.

Ultimately the worst thing is that those who do this, absolutely make shit even worse for the legitimate people that this does happen to.
Occasionally a person does get kicked off a plane for racist/xenophobic reasons. I recall a news article about a man who sent texts in Arabic or said a prayer prior got kicked off. The 'pranksters' just make people doubt the legitimate ones.

Yet when it was proven to be fake there was zero condemnation or people posting about it being fake and trying to be more careful what they share. It's just galling because for the most part they're reasonably intelligent people who should know better than to share every BS post they see.

yeah I see... they interviewed people on the flight one of the passenger's corroborates his account. I believe it, worse stuff has happened on the planes and people are very tense to begin with. Delta didn't accuse him of any wrong-doing and paid for his other flight, if he had actually done something wrong he'd be out on his ass.
But.. I could easily see an alternate version where this guy was trying to provoke people by speaking loudly maybe even yelling and drawing lot of attention. And then the passenger lynchmob got up in arms. God his face is so punchable.

Clearly, you've never lived with your girlfriend. Once she's comfortable around you, they'll always be in their underwear or less. Since she's pranking him back, clearly it's something they enjoyed as a couple as a bonding of their own sort.
However as for the clickbait titles they post... Well that just speaks for itself.

I've received 100+ emails from the aforementioned businesses, trying to get me to hawk some product, website or mobile app for large sums of money. All of them laughed at and binned because some of us are trying to create videos in the spirit of what Youtube was originally.

I haven't really gone there since they started branching out from just gamer streaming, but you can usually tell if the girl is there to game.. or there to have a game in the back ground while she goes through 5 outfit changes that progressively show off more and more of her tits.

Side note on the mighty mug, they're actually surprisingly difficult to tip over. Where I work customers can bring in their own cups for us to fill with coffee. I've experienced a few of these mugs and if you want to pick it up, you have to pull straight up. Otherwise, that fucker isn't going anywhere.
So if the lid's off you can knock it hard enough that liquid will come out (it's pretty easy actually). But good luck knocking it over.

And I love how hard they tried to make it seem like it wouldn't spill to make sure they advertised it right. One of the FaZe Clan members, I think FaZe Rug, had the thumbnail set up with a baseball bat looking like her was gonna hit it with all his might. In the actual video, however, each time he did a full wind up for the bat, he swung it slow and hit it incredibly soft, and so many other YouTubes did the same thing, barely touching the cup.

Actually, they legally have to say when it's a paid promotion. Unbox Therapy does say when he was in contact with the company and when it's a paid promotion. People who have tried to get away with not saying when they were paid get in huge trouble. If you look at Unbox Therapy, you'll see he's always been about trying to show the coolest gadgets and items. Just here to inform.

Re: mighty mug
My store used to sell those, and we had displays out. As long as you lifted straight up, they came off without a problem, but they were remarkably good at holding on instead of tipping. I shifted the shelf it was on while trying to tip it over a few times.
You could still tip it, but it took considerable effort to do so intentionally.

To be fair, most people who review things for a living either get paid for it or receive the product for free, it's really just part of the business. I'm cautious of people who only give positive reviews of things. That either means one of two things: they only review things because they get paid, OR they pick really good things to review / don't post reviews of things they don't like. The second option really isn't too bad, but that usually isn't the thinking.

Jesus H Tapdancing Christ the various fidget spinners.
Been reading /r/EDC lately and some of the posters there have unholy amounts of money to throw away on spinners. Most seem to run the $200-300 range, but then there's the rare $600 spinner.
Fucking 600 dollars. On a bit of brass/whatever and a roller bearing.
Tho that kinda pales in comparison to the $1275 pocket flashlight that runs off of an N cell(slightly smaller than a AAA)

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if all it costs these companies is the products themselves with no extra payment.
Just look at how desperate these kind of channels are to get youtube money; clickbait (including outright lies in the title), misleading thumbnails, stretching the video with pointless talking or struggling to open simple packaging to get more watch minutes (the stat that youtube really cares about, it's not about views or likes at all).
ba203 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 07:00:26 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
To play Devil's Advocate, it may not be the case that they were paid to review it.
For argument's sake, if they weren't paid, what potentially happened was that the Mighty Mug PR people went mental and just sent out huge amounts of the things to all the YouTubers, all at once.
Combine that with the burden of finding YT content to produce isn't always easy, and there's huge pressure on YouTubers to publish vids to a schedule without fail. In fact, if you watch any of the "how to develop a channel" guides, one of the biggest tenets is have a publishing schedule and NEVER miss it. If you're struggling to find something, and you get this mug in the mail, that's an easy win. Combine it with the big boys doing videos on that same thing, and it's even more attractive to smash out a two minute video that looks like a ridiculous ad made by ADHD-riddled monkeys.
That said, it's certainly possible that the big ones were paid, but they got sent something free and gimmicky, so that makes an easy video, with competition and the fear of losing subscribers, it's no wonder huge amounts of videos were produced without even needing the incentive of cash.

Never heard of him until now but it sounds like if he'd just kept quiet about it, it wouldn't have been a thing.
Before he died, my grandad spent his last few years in a wheelchair because he couldn't hobble more than 10m without collapsing, but he would momentarily stand up to reach high up things.

They were both legitimately terrible people. He was verbally abusive to her on stream, she would pander to subs/viewers for money to help with his wheelchair fund and shit like that, they had subs come and move his apartment cause he's a cripple, it went on and on.
What's even weirder is how brainwashed some of his viewers were, supporting him right up to the ban even after he walked.

Aw yes...I knew that fucker irl, unfortunately. Just a handful of the shit he pulled: he faked his sisters suicide, pretended to have a heart condition and seizures, by the age of 20-21 had not only been a Marine, but also graduated Culinary school, also he was a pro surfer as a teen and skateboarder. He said his mother had severely abused him, and left him in the care of a family member...but he also grew up with his mom in Hawaii, oh wait no! He lived in squalor in Canada, and that's how he also became a pro snowboarder
....shit you not! He told various stories to all sorts of people, all these people spoke to one another. Why he didn't just stick to one story I'll never understand, but the majority of people knew he was full of shit, but he was a chill enough dude that most didn't care. The only relationship I knew him to be in was to a very dear person to me, and she was completely bamboozled by her love for him. 5 years of emotional and verbal abuse, and then FINALLY THIS FUCKING VIDEO HAPPENED!!!! This girl FINALLY saw him for the piece of shit that he was, and has moved on to have a very lovely family with an actual Marine.

I'm honestly glad that his ex-gf found someone who cares about her. I always knew she was a nice lady. Whenever I would watch ZilianOP's stream, he would always be mean to her and I would feel bad. I remember reading stories about one of ZilianOP's ex TeamSpeak friends would make her give him head while he was on voice chat. And then when that fiasco happened where he stood up on his chair, she was still defending him and everything.
This is why I believe there is hope for every one to find true love, if a POS like ZilianOP can keep a cute girl like that for 5 years, then anything is possible.

The Phantoml0rd literally banned me from his twitch because I made a passing jab at his "gambling addiction"
He called me out by name, made a lukewarm burn at me and then banned me before I could respond. Guy is as salty as he is unethical.

I used to play a game called TFC (team fortress classic) and we were both part of a big community. He was basically the community joke. He would scream in his mic as loud as he could for attention and generally just do stupid stuff, complete idiot.
I remember once I did a 3v3 or something I think, against him and he ACTUALLY cried because he lost so bad. full on tears sobbing over the mic that we must be "cheating" and how he can't kill any of us, or get our flag. hilarious. he can't stand when someone is better than him and he was the absolute best when it comes to raging. He raged so hard at every single thing that ever happened, it was unreal. total tool. He stopped talking to all his 'real' friends too once he started to get famous.

I know Syndicates at least. He owned a CSGO gambling website. Youtube requires people to say when a video is sponsored, but I think there's a little work a round when it comes to actually owning the source. Regardless, he acted like he "found" the website, and pretended to win big everytime. It encouraged his audience (he's a bigger Minecraft youtuber a bit, so obviously a somewhat younger audience) to go to the website to "win big", when in reality he was likely either rigging the bets, or making it seem as if he only won big.

Hey hey hey, you threw a lot of speculation into there. As far as we know Tmartn, Syndicate, and JoshOG could be legit, but Tmartn acting like he "found" the website is just wrong.
Syndicate's channel was meant for the more 12+ content, as he himself age-gated most of his videos early on. The way any of those "CSGO I WIN BIG WOW $$$$$$" are obviously edited to only show the positives, as is any video on YouTube made for ethos/pathos. The twitch streams that Syndicate did do, often showed him losing knives and some other rare skins. He even eventually gave up and bought skins off the community market for his "ruby collection" as he called it.
Tl;dr Yes it is scummy, but it is all speculation, and many stated "facts" are just speculation.
CHOO CHOO ALL ABOARD THE DOWNVOTE TRAIN.

The lawsuits are still ongoing in the early stages. Prosyndicate moved back to the UK, so it'll be harder for US lawyers to get to him, but Tmartin is still in the thick of it. I don't know about JoshOG. Tmartin has fallen off YouTube, but Josh still streams regularly and seems to have avoided the negative publicity backlash.

IIRC, the owner of the Minecraft server he played on with other Youtubers asked an animator to make a little animation for their channels. Syndicate didn't wasn't told properly what the deals were so he just uploaded the file he was given as he thought he was supposed to do.
The animator wanted the youtubers to put his name in the description which Syndicate didn't do. The animator then tweeted Syndicate saying he should change his description or else he'll charge him. With 2M followers he gets a lot of tweets so he didn't see that. The animator then charged him money which Syndicate refused to pay as those were not the terms the server owner and the animator agreed on.
The animator made a video about it (showing only his side of the story, which I think is very unfair), and it gained a lot of traction. Keemstar wanted arrange a conversation between the two but because he is a massive cunt he pushed Syndicate to basically agree with Keemstar to doxx the animator. Then a pathetic shouting match between Syndicate and the animator ensued.
I can see where Syndicate was coming from, but the money the animator asked for was chump change for him. It would have been a much better idea to just say sorry and pay up.

If I'm not mistaken he owned a part of it as well. He also filmed some videos for it and streamed him playing on the site. Not disclosing ownership not good. Gambling on your own casino BIG NO GO, but Tmartn and syndicate also played on it too. What makes it even worse is that Tmartn was logged into one of the sites bots while streaming once.

Not disclosing a sponsorship is actually illegal for obvious reasons.
Alasdaire ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 04:36:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah I wonder if this is part of why he doesn't play CSGo anymore; trying to distance himself from it all.
Josh is definitely a churner for followers/subscribers etc. with the amount of giveaways he does. He has like 250k twitter followers, which is disproportionally large to his actual community. Driving people to Lotto, which he has a stake in, checks out with that whole vibe.
For what it's worth, Josh's explanation was that he was Lotto's first sponsorship, and that as the first sponsor he was given equity (as he says is common in the industry). He was listed as the "Secretary" of Lotto because he did have equity, and they had to give him some title (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXx5lQRbaIU).
I will say that I'm not sure what Josh did is the same as what Syndicate did. If you watch h3h3's video, Syndicate is just straight deceiving people about "finding" the site, and then hams it all up with his reactions and the amount of promotion. He says that he was offered a sponsorship. This despite the fact that he was listed as the VP, and apparently co-founded the site. Josh's explanation (equity as a concession to him because he's the first sponsorship) is a different than Syndicate's being a founder. And AFAIK, Josh doesn't say that he just happened to "find" the site. I don't think he said anything about it. Not deception like Syndicate.
The questions re. Josh are 1) should he have been allowed to gamble on a website he partially owned? The implication is that they could have been rigging it in his favor. h3h3 seems to imply there are laws against this. But that's not what we're cared about, we care about the ethical implications. And 2) if he was allowed, should he have disclosed his ownership?
Just my opinion, but the disclosure in itself seems unreasonable to expect. Non-lawyers don't think about disclosures. But a layperson should think that they shouldn't be gambling on a site they control/own because they have control over the odds. And a layperson should reason that if they do do that, and then post videos about it encouraging others to do it as well, the safe thing would be to tell people they own it.

When I was 15 or so and really into COD, I always watched Tmartn's videos. He seemed like a super genuine guy who was just doing it for the fun, so to hear about the whole betting scandal thing made me sad. I guess YouTube has gone from being a hobby to being a career for many people which is bringing out the worst in them.

I've never heard about him cheating in public servers. A lot of his DayZ videos, for example, have clearly been set up and had things spawned in, but his videos are presented in a cinematic style where capturing footage even similar to the level he does would take huge amounts of time. His videos are for entertainment and stories rather than for pure gameplay, so I don't mind that.
Where and when has he been caught cheating?

It was more of the fact he said he had learned to BHop, and then hit about 12 perfectly executed hops in a row, rather than it being just the script as well as him denying it and saying his mouse had an infinite scroll wheel, whenever Launders went over why that was very improbably, and then proved his infinite scroll wheel explanation wrong as well

Every one of his videos either uses blatant hacks, has actors or is on some kind of private server. I've heard stories of actual players getting booted by admins after shooting him. He apparently gets very pissed off when people legit kill him for 'ruining his vid'.
You can always tell when he comes across an actual player because it usually jump cuts to a different situation, presumably 30-or-so minutes later.
But still, he doesn't do anything illegal and makes pretty good videos. I just wish he was more honest.

Webo_ ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 12:33:28 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The reason he 'cheats' (by spawning things like vehicles in) is because his videos aren't just let's plays, they're cinematic and story driven. There's absolutely no way he could make the videos he does by not spawning things in. Even when he does spawn stuff in, it's not on a public server, so it's not like he's getting an unfair advantage over other players.

That phrase stuck out to me as possibly the most vile things I have ever seen on YouTube. How he clearly crafted that phrase to pander specifically to kids, his audience, and delivers it with disgusting sincerity. It honestly sickens me that someone who blatantly manipulated so many people is still out there influencing thousands of kids.

Hell I'd wager all that attention and hate only added to the grease fire of their youtube careers. There's no such thing as bad publicity. The only real downside I could see is a possible lawsuit being drug out a few years, under Fraud/fair trade and attempting to solicit minors into gambling. But, the 2nd charge likely wouldn't stick because they are betting csgo skins not actual currency.

Hey guys I find a pretty cool site today and I won a pot of a few thousand! Come check it out.
When accused of not disclosing he actually owns the website. How can someone possibly sleep well at night if they deceive their viewer? Proceed to editing every video in the past to "disclose" that he is "sponsored" by the website.
Given the demographic of his viewer (mostly in 14-20), it is despicable to even think about misleading his viewers into gambling activity. Let alone refusing to apologize for what he has done.

It really boils my blood that there were literally no reprecussions for any of the people involved, and that they're all going about like nothing happened except they scammed probably tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars off of everyone. This was literally the Panama Papers of the gaming industry and NOTHING happened to anyone. Someone should've at least paid up (looking at you, TmarTn).
Also, I find it funny how TmarTn was caught in such a scandal about 5 years after someone else tried to rip off his YouTube content. I guess you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Most recently though I wanted to find out how to blacklist youtube channels as blocking the channel only prevents them from messaging you and they'll still show up in your suggested channels... ofc the video I watched they're like yeah you have to download this app!
Turns out you can say you're not interested in a video by clicking on the 3 dots next to it... after you say you're not interested it'll ask why and you can tell them you're not interested in the channel. goodbye solorenektononly and your clickbait non-highlight videos.

There was a video on /r/amibeingdetained of a few guys with ARs strapped to their chest walking into a police station because they felt "endangered for their lives by how the cops treated them earlier". Their reasoning was that they were protected by the second amendment. The second the walk in, two cops pull out their hand guns on them screaming at them to get down, and they will shoot if he doesn't. Then like three more cops run in. I wouldn't be sorry if they lost a limb due to being shot right then.

PurpleCookieMonster ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 05:57:54 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I agree with Oliver about pulling a fake gun or something being just plain stupid.
But that backpack one I think is kind of funny. From the way you describe it they throw a backpack in an open window dressed in stereotypically middle eastern clothes. Obviously the shock from having something thrown in your car is bad but surely a reasonable person wouldn't fear for their life in this situation. Hell, drive off fast enough and you have a free backpack.
To me the line between a prank and someone being a tosser is when the victim has a reasonable expectation of danger to themselves. Inducing a split second of panic is fine, but if after thinking it over for a few seconds the victim should be able realise there is no real danger and laugh about it.
The only way I can see the backpack thing making someone genuinely fear for their safety for more than about 7 seconds is if they're an idiot and can't assess that nothing has exploded so they're probably safe now. Or potentially they believe terrorists run around in full desert gear throwing bombs into cars. In both of those situations the 'prank' actually would make a good social experiment/commentary as the actions of the prankster require ridiculous assumptions to be taken seriously and expose the silly prejudices we all subconsciously hold and make's us more aware of them.
Can't defend pulling a fake gun on someone though. Even after thinking about it a reasonable person would feel endangered and take action. That's a paddlin'.

Do you mean the Jalals? Three brothers pretending to murder one another in the street as, fire fake guns and throw pretend backpack bombs at people.
They pulled one of these pranks on a dad and his young daughter (no older than 5 so probably scarred for life) once and the instincts in that man were insane. Those kids are a fucking disgrace and I hope someone retaliates to the point where they can't eat without a damn tube.

I know there was a group in Australia who uploaded some videos of doing that. The police got involved with it and said they were going to charge the people who made the video. It then turned out that the people making the video had staged all of the interactions, and even contacted the state police department to make sure that it was ok to film the video.

There are even worse videos that aren't prank videos but 'See how horrible black/muslim/immigrants/refugee people are' Where they drive up to people on the street minding their business and spouting racist and derogatory words to them to get them mad and then afterwards they give commentary on how awful and disgusting these kinds of people are and they should all be deported or killed.
These videos are on youtube where children go and view them filling their impressionable and ignorant minds with shit like this. And racists who use these type of videos to defend themselves saying how right they are.
It's one of the most disgusting things online.

I am truly confused how this is not illegal and how these people are not arrested. Making a random innocent person think their life is about to end is NOT fucking funny. Going up to people and pretending to be racist is one thing and definitely disgusting, dressing up as a suicide bomber is fucked up and I truly hope one of those people gets shot one day. What if someone saw a fake suicide bomber and had a heart attack and died? Super funny prank. Even if it IS legal, why the absolute FUCK would you give people more reason to make generalizations about your race?!?? you have NO room to complain about racism if you give white people a reason to do so. Not saying other people of your race don't have room, just saying you're dumb as fuck and I hope someone from your race beats the fuck out of you for making the rest of them look bad.

Assault
skwerrel ยท 45 points ยท Posted at 03:52:44 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Absolutely. Bullies can never handle a taste of their own medicine. It's cliche - and it's not like in a Very Special Episode where the tiny nerd finds some confidence and uses a stern voice, and suddenly Biff is sorry he was ever mean (in real life that gets poindexter a punch in the face). But if someone just as big or bigger than Biff starts pushing him around in the same way? Biff starts crying like a little bitch, sniffling all the way to teacher's office (or the cops, in this case) every damn time.
It's because the behavior is learned. The ol' cycle of abuse. They learn early, from someone strong in their life, how to be a victim via abuse. At the same time they learn (incorrectly) that the only way to not be a victim is to be an abuser (aka bully). The second someone flips the script though? They're right back to Daddy coming home drunk and calling them a sissy and pushing them around, and the timid little boy mindset that comes with that.
Obviously I'm using a pretty specific metaphor here. But the basic psychology of it is fairly straightforward, and sadly common as all fuck. Mad respect to anyone who comes from an abusive upbringing and rises above this behavior.

He may fake what he does to other people (these people definitely fake some of their stuff I know a guy working in London as a camera man who has been the "victim" in a video for a different guy).
Even still, if your persona is someone who crosses over these boundaries don't be surprised when someone does it to you.

In the beginning when he was filming locally I think he got away with doing shit cause people here are generally quite nice and we get loads of tourists who probably have no idea who he is. Now whenever someone sees him we are all like oh shit avoid.
He filmed a couple of videos with real confrontation (before all the fake stuff) one involved out lab technician from college who is one of the nicest guys you can meet, he just exploded on Jack.
Our tech was our hero after seeing the video.
Oh and fun fact: the guy who through the pizza at Jack (DiscoBoy) I used to do martial arts with. So funny that this is on Reddit haha

The second he sees his prank victim fall to the ground of what seems to be a severe allergic reaction he has two options. Stay and help, or run away. If he stays and helps, then AHA I'm the ultimate prankster and he's been faced! If he runs away, he'll forever be plagued by the thoughts that he might just have killed someone, but he'll never know for sure

But, you know, that's kind of a mouthful. So, it's obvious to me that your username is depicting a barbell, so do you want people to call you barbell? Or since you have three weights on each end, of which I am assuming are 45 pound weights, do you want to be known as 315 pound barbell?

I know, I believe that there are people out there that would stage them getting beat up (for real beat up) but it's planned. I can see it being safer that way because its one thing to get beat up or punched in the face but its another then to get put in the hospital or possibly assaulted with weapons.

There's a lot to unpack here.
Then we don't agree. I don't think violence is ever an acceptable or justifiable answer to mean words, short of threatening behavior.
Of course I wouldn't. But black people aren't lions, they're human beings.
I'm rarely one to hit the racism card. But "I went to the streets and pranked black guys by saying the n-word to make them angry" pranksters are relying on racism for their entertainment. They are suggesting that black people are more likely to become violent. To validate that by saying it's equivalent to pulling a wild animal's ear is pretty uncool.
Let me just be clear: violence is not a justifiable response to words, regardless of what those words are, unless they carry a threat.

What about the one where they pretended to kidnap people and shit and made it look like they were gonna rape some chick? That one upset me cause it almost seemed real until I found out that girl is an actress who often acts in the role of a rape victim and shit. But they never told you that she was acting and really she was a pretty good actress. she was screaming and crying and shit. It was extremely unsettling.

Everyone involved in those videos is a paid actor so don't stress. The one time it was for real was when this guy went up to this random guy and asked him if he wanted to see his ass while holding his hand behind his back (he had a little eeyore from Winnie the Pooh) and the guy fronted up to him and cold cocked the cunt and knocked him out cold. Cuts to footage later and the guy had a hole in his cheek. Was good stuff.

But when your comedy has the same effect as just plain being racist in earnest, then choosing to do it anyway is also a racist act. Really, the intent doesn't matter here, the consequences do.
As much as people think comedy treats nothing as sacred, a lot of "comedians" treat comedy itself as sacred. Comedy is totally subject to criticism for things like this.

This isn't at all what you're talking about, but what you said reminds me of "The Penis Prank" from the now-defunct ZUG.com. There is absolutely nothing about that that makes it a "prank". He's just trying a bunch of different penis-enlargement formulas he sees advertised and measuring to see if any of them actually worked. He's performing an experiment. Nobody is being "pranked" in any way. It's almost like he was so used to titling prank stories on his website, that he just did the same for that story by force of habit and never changed it.

there are exceptions, like mediocre films shopping list prank. but the thing that makes it work is that THEY'RE the victims. they prank each other, and doing it in public is just to make it more embarrassing.

I don't know if it is still up, but I once saw a video showing some guys who made a video where they went out on the street at night and walked up to people and asked, "Do you want to die tonight?" Some of those people responded by hitting them or otherwise getting into a fighting posture. If it was real, they're just lucky no one pulled a gun or knife to kill them. That was the worst "prank" I've seen on youtube.

I totally agree. But there are ways to make "prank" videos entertaining without enraging everyone around you. Look at Mediocrefilms. He made lots of pranks like cell phone crashing and going to target, but even when there was interaction with other people, he still made it fun. I guess you just have to have a certain type of charisma for it and good ideas for those pranks. Something lots of "social experiment" youtubers do not have

I am weird and like to watch people play claw machines in arcades. There's a YouTuber named Claw Kicker who does a shit ton of clickbait thumbnails and titles. Things like "Kicked out of Denny's for winning an MP3 player!" when that never actually happened. He also has faked videos saying it was at some location but after the cut people realized he was using a machine he owned himself.
Recently he made a video saying there was a hack to get free plays on claw machines by using the flash from your phone's camera which others debunked. He's admitted faking a lot of shit for views.
EDIT: Wow. This topic blew up. Thanks to The Crane Couple and Matt3756 for commenting on here. Completely unexpected. Just wanted to mention that the two I just mentioned and Plush Time Wins are the 3 channels on the claw machine culture I watch continuously and recommend that if anyone is interested to look at those channels and subscribe. If Angel and Crystal from PTW see this, you guys are awesome, too, and hope that this brings a lot more attention and subs to your guys' channels. Also, not attacking Claw Kicker but due to his misleading videos, I don't try to watch him.

Matt3756 is the top YouTuber for it. Plush Time Wins is entertaining enough although the girl's voice annoys a lot of people. The Crane Couple are okay but not as entertaining as the others, in my opinion, but they do have other videos where they've gone to a couple of the arcades in Las Vegas hotels like Excalibur and Circus Circus and played the games there so I found those interesting.
EDIT: Wanted to add about the Crane Couple. They're from California, I believe, and they go to a place called Playland Japan which looks awesome and has a bunch of machines. Makes their channel a bit more unique.

Hey all - Matt3756 here. I'm not really active here on reddit but some of my fans were tweeting to me saying some of you guys were mentioning me + my videos here and how you enjoyed them and whatnot and I just wanted to say thank you to all of you!
You guys made me smile hearing how some of you enjoy the videos and just my personality in general - that's one of the main reasons I continue to make videos (but yes it's also my full time job lol) . I try to be as real and down to earth as possible in my videos and if I can make someone's day a little brighter or help someone through a rough time in their life with my silly / crazy videos - then I feel I've done my duty!

I accepted this challenge thinking it couldn't be that bad and was probably more cute than annoying.
For anyone else that's curious, the girl's voice is borderline rage-inducing. Not for the faint of heart. I had to close the tab before she even got five words out.

You get over it when you realize it's not an act. I thought it was a gimmick, but the more you watch you get that it's really her being herself. Crystal seems really sweet and the whole voice thing ain't a thing once you watch enough of their videos.

She was most likely sexually abused as a child to have that voice. It's a phenomenon where your voice stays around the same as the age you were molested so if that's the case I feel bad for her. Her voice didn't induce rage, it just made me think of a very emotionally under developed adult.

Thanks to this thread, I just started watching your videos. I have a quick question for R1 generally. Is it possible to win when the UFO catcher is in less than ideal shape? I feel like it would be best to walk away or ask a really nice attendant when the catcher doesn't push/pull very well.
TheCraneCouple ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 05:14:26 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Thanks for giving our content a shot! For Round 1, it really depends. It's common for prizes to be knocked into a really bad position by others players and then left there - the employees don't normally reset the prize to proper starting position unless it's obviously unwinnable (like if it's out of the claw's range.) It's totally fine to ask for the prize to be reset so you have a fair chance of winning it!
Now if the machine and claw itself are set too weak, then it's probably best to just walk away unless you really want that specific prize. We've seen people spend $20+ and still leave empty-handed. If you've already spent a bunch and still haven't won, cool employees will usually set up the prize for you to win more easily! But it'll still be expensive either way.
Good luck and hope you win lots at your local Round 1!

A few years ago my ex and I were at Dave and Busters and there was a family there and the dad was trying to win in the big claw machine and almost got this dog and I played right after and won it so we went and gave it to the kids. The dad was really appreciative.

This reminds me of a month ago, my 2 yr old and I were having lunch at this local pub that has a claw machine. It's filled with big and small rubber duckies. My son, of course wanted to play. Dad says, "Sure, why not." The first two attempts dad helped "guide" the experience with no success. On the third attempt my 2 yr old says, "I do it." And I was like, fuck it, it's all yours. Sure enough the kid navigates the claw over the ducks, drops it and comes up a winner. I couldn't believe it. My heart swelled with pride and satisfaction. Now every time I see that duck in the bathroom, it puts a smile on my face.

One year around Christmastime they had these little stuffed polar bears with Coca Cola bottles in their paws. They were so cute. I must have won a dozen of those things. Gave one to each member of my family and just passed the others out to people at the arcade. Good times.

I just watched one of Matt3756's most popular videos, the one where he cleans out the machine, and thought it was really nice of him to give the prizes away. I'm sure it's no big deal to him as he probably has a million stuffed animals, but that sort of thing probably made those two girls' day and gave them an interesting story that turned into a video that has currently been seen over 4.7 million times that they can tell their friends about. Really odd to me that it surrounds a claw machine, but nice nonetheless.

I think Crane Couple did that in a video too. Gave a giant bag of stuff to a little girl. I'm not rich and I don't make videos like this but I like to play the claw machines just to play them so if I win, I like to find someone who would actually want the prize. I used to get off work early on Wednesdays when Dave and Busters had half price games and would just show up and play the claw machines. If I won and didn't care about the prizes I'd try to give them away. I'm sure it's kind of creepy for a grown man to try to give toys to little kids but I just play to play and if I can make some little kid happy, I'm cool with that.

The Crane Couple are in southern California and Playland Japan is in San Francisco. The one I enjoy seeing The Crane Couple visit most so far is NeoFuns in Monterey Park.
Matt3756 got me into watching the arcade/crane vids. Matt's videos have kinda fallen off for me. I don't know why. I still watch them all, but they don't pull me like they used to. Maybe he needs to hit up more restaurant claws or redeem stuff for prizes more. Inspired by Matt I got off my ass and went to a Round 1 (an hour and a half away) and couldn't win a damn thing from the UFO catcher's so that's how I found The Crane Couple.
The Crane Couple's Toreba videos taught me the basics I needed to know to win at UFO catcher's. Then they started their Round 1 videos and other arcades on the road which are awesome.
Plush Time Wins is great once you're over Crystal's voice. (No offense, Crystal! I used to think it was an act.). I used to think Angel was kind of a jerk to her, but they're just being playful. They're happy and and fun and I even follow their vlog channel now.
ClawStruck. sighs. Plush Babe is the one reason I watch. The dialogue can be blah during the videos with Jeremy and Brandon. They try to sound all pro talking about payout rates and stuff and the techniques they're using and half the time that stuff don't even work. Just because you own a claw doesn't make you a pro, just like how owning a car doesn't make you a mechanic.
johnnydakota ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:26:50 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I liked the Crane Couple's Vegas videos with Brittani's sister. I hadn't been to those arcades since I was a kid. I think it was at Excalibur when I played at like age 16 and the ticket machine malfunctioned and gave me over 3000 tickets for like 60 tickets. I did that a few times and got a lava lamp and this other electricity thing lol.
The only videos from Matt I don't watch much is the mail videos and the ones where he takes his claw machine to convention places for other people to play.
I realized I had watched the Toreba video before I even got into their other videos.
I'm not sure I ever really noticed her voice or cared enough to think about it, actually, until I read the comments on YouTube.
Haven't watched ClawStruck before.

LOL I don't think I've seen their room of prizes but yeah, I think there's a few that do donate their prizes which is really cool. I've done that when I've played. I will win something and then find a little kid around, ask their parent if it's okay if they have it and tell them I just like to play the games and have no need for the toy.

I really don't get the attraction of watching people play a claw machine but to each his own however, watching this girl play is just horrible. What bugs me is that it's not that her voice is annoying.. it's very annoying but that her voice is annoying because she is talking like a 3 year old. This takes me way back to high school where these types of girls dressed as babies or toddlers any chance they got, walked around with those candy sucker rings that used to be popular and just over exaggerated any emotion with the equally exaggerated hand and facial expressions. They were usually smoking hot so they could always get away with this stupid shit. Made me want to put pencils in my ears.

How about that one video where he was walking towards a building saying he was going to play the machines in it, then cuts to him playing a claw machine in a building, and it just so happens to have a plush with an iPod attached to it with a rubber band. For people that don't know who he is, he just so happens to own his own arcade with claw machines. Also, he has some friends that also make arcade machine videos, and in one of their videos, they win something out of one of those key master machines at his arcade because he "forgot" to close the divider thing that's supposed to block the key/pusher thing.

Sorry, I'll try to bullet point it for better clarity
Her was filming himself and a friend walking towards a building
The video cuts to them at a claw machine without showing them walking into the building and no establishing shot inside
As they play the claw machine, they notice that on a plush, there is an iPod attached to it with a rubber band
Claw Kicker owns an arcade with multiple claw machines, plus many claw machines in other locations that he distributes plushes to. This causes suspicion as it makes no sense for anyone other than him to do such a thing.
Second story
A friend of his also has an arcade machine YouTube channel
Her made a video of him at Claw Kicker's arcade
He found a Key Master machine where CK seemed to "forget" to slide the piece of glass that's supposed to block the pusher thing over when he stocked it.
Her "won" a rather expensive item. This is suspicious since it's rather careless that CK would forget something like that, and rather convenient that his friend seemed to be the only one who discovered it.

Yeah, that's basically it. It seems like a lot of other channels that try to copy that format do the same. There are a lot of videos of people "hacking" the machines. I remember one claimed that if you push the lock on the door of the big machines it lets you win. So they edit the videos so they do this and then cut to a clip of them winning.

The only one I won a constant stream of prizes from was a rubber duck machine at Friendly's. I used to get super excited when I went there because I knew I'd be leaving with at least 4 ducks, if not more.
I remember about 7 or 8 years back, my friend somehow won an iPod from one of the ones at the grocery store and the manager was pissed. He flat out said "you must have found a way to cheat because nobody is supposed to win the big prizes. We made sure of it." Since then I shy away from most machines.

The nice thing about Matt3756's channel is that he'll talk about which machines are rigged and which ones usually aren't. Also mentions to look at the claws to see how they clamp and whatnot.

Have you ever tried one of those claw machine apps? I don't know if it is something here only, but it is literally a claw machine hooked up to a webcam.
Sounds scammy as fuck, but from the reviews I read it seems quite real except for dickish coin pricing.

There are virtual claw machines that you can play online. You buy credits and play them. So if you win a prize on the game, they send you an actual prize. I can't remember what the site was though. It was Japanese, I think.

I took apart a claw machine recently for a project, there's no way any cheats would work unless you could control the electromagnet that activates the claw. It's a super basic design and the frequency they give wins is controlled by a computer. Play 10 times in a row and you're likely to get something.

I don't even remember how I discovered these videos. I remember Matt3756 was one of the only people doing these things and now there are a lot more but I believe most, if not everyone, was inspired by him. I used to love playing them when I was a kid and my mom would get so pissed at me cuz I'd spend $20 and bring home like 2 plush that cost probably 17 cents a piece lol.

That's part of it for me. I mentioned before I like some of Claw Kicker's earlier stuff but the three I've listed I like for various reasons. I like Matt because there's times when he just loses it over a win or near win. I like PTW because I like Angel and Crystal's relationship with each other, I even look at their vlogs. And I like Crane Couple because they tend to bring different things to the table and seem like good people.

In older machines, no. I believe there is a little screw or something of that sort to adjust how the claw closes that can affect it but more modern machines are the ones that can be set with a set payout.

She was called reply girl and she basically just exploited the related videos algorithm; not really trending. Sometimes she didn't even watch the video she would just mumble stuff for several minutes.

For being owned by Google, youtube has the worst search functionality I've ever seen. If you don't know the exact name of the original video you are looking for (or even if you do), your going to end with just a bunch of reaction videos and videos from the chick you're talking about and people of that nature.

It's hard to make an automated search functionality when you only have the title (and tags, if that still exists) of a video to go off of. I'm not sure what else you could do, except convince video makers to title their videos concisely.

YouTube search is much better IMO then Reddit. Heck, even Reddit admins agree on this.
YouTube just too many videos so it is just gonna pull up the "best and most popular" results because most likely there are 50 million videos with the same name.
But yea, the search is still pretty terrible. They need to give more filter options atleast. Both websites do.

There still is a ton of reaction videos. She quit because Youtube made it so you didn't get the advertising money unless they watched all of your video.
Since most dudes just clicked for her in a skimpy outfit and not for her commentary she quickly went away.

Thats not surprising. Most people don't do ASMR to get boners. In fact I find the dual forces of arousal and ASMR tingles frequently cancel each other out as if on a seesaw.
Also if I'm going to have my 150$ headset on and deeply listen to someone's voice, it ain't gonna be a voice from a fucking dude. That just sounds uncomfortable.

Yeah, reply girls. It got so bad that YouTube changed their algorithm so a video was more successful based on the number of minutes watched instead of the number of clicks.

Unfortunately, Youtube's reaction to this sort of threw the baby out with the bathwater. After changing up the algorithm to promote "minutes watched" rather than "number of views," entire genres died on the site overnight, such as independent animation, as they couldn't compete against more lengthy videos with a quick turnover rate, like Let's Plays, vlogs, etc.
Newgrounds fixtures RubberNinja and RicePirate made a couple interesting videos covering the topic. It's an interesting, sad story.

LPT: there are places on the internet where you can watch hot girls, in any various state of dress down to and including butt-naked, doing pretty much any sort of degrading thing you want.
If you want to watch a girl in a bra mumble about something that's barely related to what you were watching, then shine on, but as someone else pointed out she was just exploiting the related video algorithm of the time, and also exploiting dudes' propensity to want to see tits.

Was the timestamp of the thumbnail proportional to the length of the video? I was never sure of this, but I figure it would have to be.

I think the threshold is/was there so that people can't attack a channel by spamming the report button on all of its videos. Reported content can damage a channel especially since the video is taken down while it's being reviewed which means no money.

It causes a LOT of very negative comments to rise to the top. How? Because responding to a comment means it gets more priority. The more responses, the better the chance it gets too comment. So what kind of comments get a lot of responses? Inflaming ones. Post a comment containing a compliment or something I formative and it likely will only get a couple responses. Post something hurtful wrong and enraging and everybody is going to jump on your ass. YouTube's retarded comment algorithm looks at all of those and says "Oh hey, this comment is popular and generating discussion, to the top with you!"
Most sites (Reddit for example, but also many others) combat this by including downvote and upvotes options that influence the hierarchy of that comment in the chain. If a comment has lots of replies but is at -28 it's probably not constructive and most likely a troll.
FUCKING YOUTUBE took the Facebook philosophy during all the Google Plus nonsense when they were trying to be the next Facebook which is that any interaction from the community is good for the site and disabled any sort of downvoting of the comments. That means 100s of downvotes on a troll's comment won't do a damn thing, but the 9 upvotes it got from random idiots remain. It's why you often see such vile toxic top comments. Fuck YouTube. Fuck Google Plus.

Phil actually mentioned in a video last week I think that he knowingly abused it and hated it, but now if they pull something like that they end up less views. He said he's famous enough that his face in a thumbnail increases his view and his name in the title draws in the most viewers.

He talked about that in one of his videos. People are more likely to close the video if there's an intro sequence. That's why he got rid of the monkey thing. Now he just has an outro jingle.
TheRealBarrelRider ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 06:50:43 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Was that before or after he stopped using it? I just remember that I watched about 5 videos before he stopped using it and then suddenly it disappeared. I don't recall hearing him talk about it. Or maybe I just missed it?
Personally I don't mind a very brief intro. Something 5 seconds or less is ok. I also like intros that stay consistent for a long time. Like MKBHD always starts by saying "hey, what is up guys. MKBHD here..." and ends on "I'll talk to you guys in the next one. Peace." It's kinda comforting.

people just see that attention-getting titles are often clickbait and don't seem to realize there's a nuance. click-bait has a negative connotation that the content doesn't really address the shock-value title. (i.e. "you won't believe what happened after this guy cooked food!" -> "suprise suprise,he ate it. thanks for watching our ads")
MadR__ ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 04:48:30 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'd argue that in most cases, it's not the inaccuracy of a title / thumbnail that qualifies it as click bait, but it being intentionally non-descriptive. "You won't believe what happens next" is click bait in my book, regardless of whether or not I believe the subsequent events in question.

The Truth About Dear White People: Racist Propaganda or Marketing Fail?

The argument could be made for clickbait in some cases I think. But he does always discuss the topics in the title.

It is interesting to hear it from the creator's perspective. I remember listening to a podcast where Gavin Free from Slow Mo Guys talked about how when he created an interesting title that would draw people in, it was always called out for clickbait. Most of the time, even when videos have THE ALL CAPS SHOUTING TITLES they are still honest about what the video is about.

I like that one cause you get an all caps exclamation (in case you were wondering you should feel about this newest bit of news) and then they leave you with the titillating "and more at 11" tagline.

I think colossal is crazy talked about that in one of the baited podcasts, supposedly he doesn't mind as long as it actually is the subject of the video, and its a well thought out video. I personally like the way pewdiepie has been doing it. His videos have clickbait titles, but he changes it to a regular title after a few days. It makes it so he can use joke\clickbait titles, but then have it explained for the people who dont watch every video (or are watching further back in his history).
its a subject that's tough to agree on. I'm personally fine as long as the title isn't misleading, but others absolutely hate clickbait.

Attention-grabbing titles are automatically clickbait now?
I agree that they're usually vague, but really how much detail do you expect in around 10 words to describe the multiple stories he usually addresses? The titles are accurate to what he talks about in his videos.
Yeah he uses the same stupid title format most youtubers use these days with the caps and stuff because that's what gets attention.
IMO clickbait implies using sensationalism or lying to get views for videos that have little or nothing to do with the title.

Most news articles will contain a very brief summary of the whole article as the title. Clickbait titles give you a sliver of information with attention grabbing words but ultimately have no substance. If you don't know "who did what" from the the title, it's generally clickbait.

Phil has always been very honest about what he does with his videos though. He, unlike many other YouTubers, seems to treat his channel and content as much more of a business. He's a little older than most YouTubers and has a lot more experience, but he still has been very smart about diversifying his revenue streams to support what he does.
Anyway, the real point is that since he treats it more like a business, I feel like he is one of the few guys who actually puts work into YouTube analytics. Some guys like MatPat make reference to it occasionally, but none have been as honest about it as Phil. His analysis shows that those clickbaity titles get more views, so thats what he does. He's done experiments on putting a hot girl in the thumbnail vs. himself, and he tends to draw in more viewers, so now that's what he does.
Damn do I just love how honest and real he is about his job.

Not clickbaity in the slightest if it's him talking about what the title says. Roman Atwood, on the other hand, has some non relevant/pointless title in all caps with a picture of his wife (if that's what she is now) wearing as close to nothing or looking as seductive as possible

I think CTFxC has the worst clickbait titles ever. I used to watch them years ago but had to unsubscribe when every video title became something like "STOP PULLING MY PANTS DOWN" or "SHE'S NEVER BEEN SO CRAZY".

That isn't clickbait, that's exactly what he discusses in the video. Just because it's worded in a way to grab attention doesn't make it clickbait, it makes it good advertising.

Go find his video where he titled it YouTube is shutting down his channel and then in the video states the opposite, also he had a recent one about celebrity nudes being leaked again with Katy Perry front and center in the thumbnail when it had nothing to do with her and she isn't even mentioned just her boyfriend Orlando Bloom, there is two examples

It's not. "Clickbait" is either a title with a cliffhanger (i.e. you'll never believe what happens next) or intentionally misleading. If a Youtuber titles their video as "INSANE LADY DRINKS A GALLON OF HOT SAUCE", for example, but the video really is of a woman drinking a gallon bucket of hot sauce, even if its a time laps over a couple of hours thats still fair because you are getting what you wanted.

His titles are clickbait but I don't really care because I find out what the title is about seconds into the video. Also, I've gotten to a point where I just don't care about his titles. I see that he's uploaded a video, I just click and look in the description. If your a fan of his and watch his videos the titles aren't for you.
And it must be working because he's more popular than he ever was.

Sorry but that's absolutely not true sir. If anything in his title suggests that it's click bait it's an actual story that he covers in depth. Most of that is satire for all the shitty news sources anyway.

Just look at any title for his daily show, the "secret link of the day," the thumbnails (especially when it comes to women), and stuff like not telling you/showing you something and then just pointing you to the link in the description.
His show is good but godamn is it BuzzFeed levels of clickbaity.

Because the actual monitoring and the representation of their monitoring are different things. Don't make stupid claims like "oh this seems fake" if you can literally find out that its not in less than 5 seconds, that's beyond fucking lazy and quite frankly its plain immature.
They likely watched the 3 days of footage together and commented on various things, then they went to place where they recorded the show and had what they observed put in. That's how these things go lol...
Edit: because you seem to be the kind of person to missunderstand this, when I said they watched the 3 days of footage I didnt mean in one sitting. they probably watched it over the course of one or more weeks

You should check out The Philip DeFranco show then. I had heard of him during old school Youtube when he still went by Sxephil and had a lot more mature content that I didn't get at all. For years I didn't watch because I assumed it was the same thing, but last year he covered a story I was interested in, and since then I've been hooked and watch every day!
Truly informative news, without bias. He thinks and talks through his own opinions, then hits people when they deserve to be hit. No bullshit.

I love CGP grey with a passion, but it's not really good informational content. He's good to pique your interest, but it's not exactly scientific and a lot of what he says is speculation, like about half a step up from vsauce. He is however hilarious.

When I first started to watch his vids, I cringed when I saw he had a video interviewing Obama. I figured religious southerner, not going to go well. Instead, he thoughtfully explained how his beliefs didn't line up with Obama's, but he was going to go in with an open mind. The whole video was phenomenal.
After watching some more of his videos, I realized I shouldn't have been surprised...he's just that kind of a reasonable guy

Same here. One of my favorite pics of him is him with the kid shooting a potato cannon.
That video was the second video of Destin's that I saw (first was him dropping the cat). I actually found him via a Slow Mo Guys vid (they were both filming bullets in a pool...Another thing I probably assumed something about him over). Once I saw the Obama vid, I subbed. The way he covers science with such enthusiasm, and makes the videos accessable for a wide variety of people without dumbing things down is great.

Of course, but, watch VSauce recent "Can you touch Mars" video.
Compare it with CGPGrey.
CGPGrey basically reads out wikipedia articles in hilarious ways โ especially the videos on EU, the UK, etc or electoral systems show that well.
But at least he doesn't make up facts, imply wrong things, or talk for 2 minutes in an 18 minutes video actually about the topic.
If I had to link high quality content, I'd likely link Prof. Dr. Harald Lesch's content (German only), or Tom Scott's content.

Anything political by Grey is good for cliffnotes, bad for substance. He never really makes an effort to make it clear to his audience what he isn't covering, so you have people here on Reddit who will cite his "Gerrymandering" video as a definitive source on how bad it is without ever having seen a single discussion of the complexities (majority-minority districts, for example). Likewise with his voting system videos. Talking about the spoiler effect without even mentioning brokerage parties? It's just enough information to make people who don't really know much at all think they know the whole story.

That'd be nice if that'd be all they do. But although most of the bullshit is on VSauce2 and VSauce3 nowadays, there's a lot of content where they present a fringe scientific theory, in a video riddled with wrong information, and a clickbait title.

justjanne ยท -5 points ยท Posted at 01:01:41 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Basically every video older than 3 years?
And even in todays videos, he's constantly trying to keep your attention without any substance, presents fringe scientific theories, and the overall scientific content of a 15min video is less than as if you'd have just read the first paragraph of the wikipedia article about the topic.
Take the video on Can you touch Mars.
It tells you
Now, how much of that was actual information, how much was bullshit (the star = glowworm comparison, really?), and how much of it actually talked about the title?
He asks random, unrelated questions, implies things, and so on.
Now, this was a 20 minutes video. This was a post read in seconds, with the same info, and far less of the bullshit. Notice the problem? In fact, he only talked for about 3 minutes about the topic of the title at all.

What where you expecting from the title of that video? It's not misleading, if anyone above the age of five, understands that he's not going to say "Yes, if you stand on this one particular hill on the solstice and jump really high". It's a teachable moment to shift the focus and angle of one topic and open it up in an interesting tangent and deliver seemingly disparate but ultimately connected information in an interesting way. That's his style, you don't have to like it personally, but there's nothing wrong with it inherently. If the subsequent information is false, then this is of course different, which is why I asked the question
It's not obvious that any of those bullets points are factually inaccurate, just that you didn't find them insightful. Perhaps you're a Doctor of Astronomy and you're thesis focused on Mars or something, thereby giving you very specialized knowledge to discredit points that would be otherwise considered factual. If so, it would be helpful if you could elucidate.
(There's no need to downvote someone for asking a question, if he's being misleading, I'd like to know)
justjanne ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 01:51:29 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I actually mentioned several points where he speculates, without any proof whatsoever.
The discussion about life on Mars (which could be a lot longer, he talked more about the flag than about what we'd expect from life on Mars), or the topic of "humans will touch martian soil in our lifetime". Or his discussion how Martian society would decouple from earths society due to a different calendar and time, which he also just speculated about.
As said, a lot of speculation presented as if it was a lot more credible than it is.
In his video, he has by far more speculation than factual statements.
What I was expecting was a discussion about
Things I did not expect:
Things that are still okay IMO:

Take the recent "should you touch Mars" video.
It's 18 minutes.
Of which less than 3 cover the topic of actually interacting with Mars, and biological contamination.
He also shortly mentions slightly relevant stuff about the moon, and the possibly relevant topic that some of the atoms in your body once were on Mars.
But the entire rest? The glowworm and star comparison? Taking a flag that one astronaut supported as "official"? The random questions, which are at best conjecture? The implications he makes unfoundedly?
That's pure bullshit.

That wouldn't be clickbait though. He at least addressed the question. VSauce's content is popular for asking interesting questions, and taking the audience along for a ride to discover new trains of thought. To me he is more a philosopher of thought. He challenges us to appreciate science in an enjoyable way.
ImaW3r3Wolf ยท 17 points ยท Posted at 01:21:39 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

justjanne ยท -3 points ยท Posted at 01:24:48 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Well, the problem is that he does a lot of speculation, little of which is grounded in fact, and the content rarely contains new and interesting information.
I mentioned elsewhere Prof. Dr. Harald Lesch, who had a TV show where he does literally that โ he gets asked a question, answers it, and during that answer discusses related philosophical topics that come up, or scientific topics.
But because he has a PhD in two disciplines, he actually doesn't talk bullshit, and has a lot more interesting new facts he can present.
And VSauce has this very nasty habit of making shit up to keep you watching, which Lesch luckily doesn't have to do (as it's a tax funded show)

In their latest Mars video they claim latency between Earth and Mars will be hours, in reality the maximum will be 20 minutes.
In their latest Mars video they make predictions as if they were true "humans will walk on Mars by 2030".
Then I could link their old videos "VList #5: These five videos will get you laid", or similar clickbait.

I'll have to rewatch the Mars video so i'll get back to you on your first point.
"Predictions", as in guesses, as in hypothesizing. If you're going to fault them for guessing then the fault is with you, not them.
Their old videos that aren't at all representative of how much the channel has grown in terms of content and maturity? Nah, doesn't work like that.

I'm seriously questioning wtf you're smoking to think that.
Educational videos are awesome, and I watch a lot of light educational content too, but stating wrong things as facts, or making false implications, or talking about entirely different topics than hinted at in the title is not exactly good.
And complaining about that is justified, isn't it?

There's a League of Legends streamer named "N3Ac3y" who uploads all his videos to youtube with scantily clad women and clickbait titles. All for the fact that It strait up worked to get him a significant amount of views that he wasn't getting before.

There is a really cool video called "Bad Motherfucker" by Biting Elbows which does this. There is actually about two seconds in the video which does show the screenshot of two girls sunning in bikinis. What's funny is it is probably the least interesting shot of the entire video, the rest is quite awesome so I have a feeling they chose the shot ironically.

Or in a video where you have utterly boring footage with no real focus point but the title is in the form of a question. Eg: video on overwatch gameplay, thumbnail with yellow bold gont "widowmaker nude skin???" video spits shit about nothing then at the end confirms that there is no in-game nude skin for widowmaker and in fact nobody ever thought there was but asked and answered the question in the entirety of the video

Titles are usually "wedgie alert" or "nude photobombing" or "skinny dipping in the jacuzzi" even if those things often happen for 4-10 seconds of a 12 minute vlog. I guess there's a reason it's not named "dinner att George's" or "letting the dogs chase squirrels"

No, copyright law protects parody, not satire. There is a difference.
Parodyโs humor springs from a recognizable allusion to the original work, and is shown where the copyrighted work is the target of the commentary or criticism. Implicit in the act of parody, thus, is the need to mimic, make use of, or target aspects of the original work. In contrast, Satire occurs where the copyrighted work is used as a vehicle to broadly poke fun at another target. Merely targeting the general style of the original work, genre of art to which the original work belongs, or society as a whole, will not serve to make satire an excused fair use.

But how all of this started? I think it's multiple channels now, doing similar bullshit? I guess it's made because it gets views and it's cheap to make? Is it because of the "shock" value? I'm really, really confused how the hell did it start....
_theholyghost ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 12:31:27 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I don't think it's shock value, they're not shocking videos per se, just really fucking stupid. H3H3 and iDubbbz's coverage on it has given them a fair amount of publicity, but nowhere near enough to warrant these videos consistently garnering millions of views.

Thank you for your answer!
Bellow I've read another theory, that these videos are made as a clickbite for the small children- 3-4-5 years old, who would click just because it says Spiderman or Elsa, and this would actually be profitable, because more and more children are given access to youtube by their parents.

That's fucking Spider-Man, not Dr. Strange. Why didn't he use his web to track the clothes off? When did he get cosmic clothes removing powers? The same goes for Elsa, she could've frozen his suit off but instead Snow White has the same cosmic clothes removing powers. Why do this power leave Spider-Man's mask on, or apparently not work on underwear?
There's literally nothing about that 10 seconds that makes any sense.

Some youtubers realized they can create nonsense videos for toddlers by dressing up as spider-man and elsa. They're making a profit from young children who binge watch youtube all day on their parents' phones because kids aren't smart enough to skip an ad.
Edit: Forgot to mention that these videos are usually inappropriate (partial nudity, sexual themes, fetish, etc.)

If a channel is intended for kids, they should have kid-friendly commercials. It doesn't serve anyone to play any ad.
Off-subject, but Talking Tom & Friends is a surprisingly funny show. The writing reminds me a bit of Futurama. Highly recommend.

Agreed, this is why I hate the TheLegend27 meme - it isn't making fun of the ad (like a lot of other memes based on ads), it's using it in exactly the context of the ad that the marketing strategists devised. There are enough original memes, we don't need advertisers working for corporations to make memes for us.

Here in my garaaaaaaaaaaaage. Just bought this new Lamborghini here. Fun to drive up here in the Hollywood Hills. But you know what I like a lot more than knowledge? this new Lamborghini here. But you know what I like a lot more than the new Lamborghini here? My Tedx talk where I talk about this new Lamborghini here. The. The. Thuhuhuhuhuhuuu. In fact I'm a lot more proud of these seven new Hollywood Hills that I had to get installed to hold two thousand new Lamborghinis. :| :o :| :o :| :o
It's like the Buffet Warren billionaire says, "The more you earn the more you drive up here in the Hollywood Hills." In fact, the real reason I keep this Lamborghini, is the real reason I keep this Lamborghini here is that it's a reminder. A reminder that drears are still possible because it wasn't that long ago that I was in a little Lamborghini sleeping on bookshelves in the Hollywood Hills with only forty seven billion dollars in my bank account, and forty seven Lamborghinis in my Lamborghini account, and only forty seven hills in my Hollywood account, and only forty seven Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffets in my Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffet account.
But you know what? Something happened that changed my life. I bumped into a Lamborghini, and another Lamborghini, and a few more Lamborghinis. I found five Lamborghinis. I don't call it money anymore I call it fuel units. You must have enough fuel units. You must have enough Lamborghinis. You must CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS.

YouTube for Kids also has those fuck-awful Bad Babies videos. 3 year old has a kid's Fire tablet and what starts off as Bubble Guppies surprise egg videos or Mommy Finger Sing Alongs (don't ask), in two or three clicks becomes screaming 10 year olds dressed as infants climbing on counters and turning on the garden hose in the living room WHILE SCREAMING. Fortunately, I'm always in the same room so as soon as I hear that goddamned screaming, I take the device. Seems to be working, but when as he figures out how to mute the sound I'm screwed. He skips ads like a champ, but the volume control is tricky for fat little fingers when the device is in the case. If I ever find those Bad Baby Bitches, I may kill them. If you're on Reddit, Bad Babies, run up on me - I'm ready. Fuckers. Let's see who screams.

I believe YouTube for Kids now allows you to block videos. Not sure if you can block entire channels, (and even if you can, there's really no end to the mindless annoying channels), but if there's "that one video" (or two, or five), it's a start.

I refuse to allow my little sisters to watch them either. What I did was make a long, long playlist of over 300 "approved" videos, because for a while, they were into watching those strange Spider-Man and Elsa videos that were completely inappropriate. Now they're constricted to the ones I allow.
they're only 6 and 8, so they haven't yet figured out how to get out (well, maybe the 8-year-old has, but she hasn't watched anything yet.) It will be a sad day when they figure it out.

The "related videos" functionality is far superior though, so through "organic discovery" of new videos maybe you won't even miss them

FYI there is some pretty fucked up and twisted shit on the youtube kids app as well. Seriously, as long as the video has something kid related it's allowed in.
For example I was browsing it with my 2 year old and ended up on some homemade cartoon with mickey mouse and friends. There was high pitched laughing, crying and screaming that sounded all distorted and fucked up. The plot involved mickey and Minnie's baby being killed by Pete. Luckily I took the kindle from him before it got too disturbing.
So yeah, fucked up shit on the "kids" app. What's worse is it won't even let blacklist channels, which would 100% fix the problem.

Right? There's something sinister about all their videos. I definitely think there is something funny about that family.
I don't even bother with Youtube anymore because of all the strange Spiderman/Elsa videos and adults opening up eggs with whispery voices. That, or children getting massive amounts of toys (Ryan's Toy Review, anyone?) or parents filming their kids do weird stuff.
I saw a video where an older girl (9+ years old) was wearing diapers and pretending to be a baby. She pulled out a bunch of cleaning supplies from underneathโ the sink and her dad came in and spent 2 minutes of the video telling her she was a bad baby... Like who the fuck is the intended audience for these videos? And this was a different person then whoever does the Bad Baby videos. And stuff like that always pops up in the recommended list of the toddler videos.

Everytime i find these videos i block the channel. But it never ends. Their is always creepy families doing inappropriate things with the kids. I dont get it. Do these people work? What do they get out of the videos? The whole thing is disturbing.
peppermintsweater ยท 21 points ยท Posted at 04:43:25 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Exactly! What really gets me is that they always look like well-to-do families in suburban areas. They always have big, really nice houses and superficially look like normal people.
Like does Joe go work as an accountant all day and come home to film his daughters playing with a giant tub of melted chocolate to post on YouTube?? And it's even worse when the whole family is involved. Nothing creepier than mom wearing an Elsa costume pretending to cast evil spells on kids and dad (Dressed as Spiderman, of course). All while nursery songs plays in the background for 40 minutes.
I'm always disturbed and fascinated by YouTube Kids.

As a parent, thanks for not giving up on your friends. I had kids very young, married my wife when I was 18 because we were raised super conservative and had no sex Ed. That plus typical teenage thinking landed us with two kids. I worked forty hours a week on a grill and then went to college at night. Didn't have time to see friends often and only a handful would visit when invited. We have much better friends these days, but the ones that were there for me then are what I consider my best friends.

I was like damn yo, that's some truth. Me and my girl, god it gives me shudders and I probably really shouldn't have children, but sort of have conversations like, well if it happened before 35, right? Yeah def has to happen before 35. Actually our child talk started with, is it ethical to not adopt living in America? Then I get why I'd want my own kid though, I got some dope genes, sort of. Maybe a bias view but, you know.
Anyway, yeah I know what it feels like. I mean I love kids. Other people's kids. For now, maybe.

Get their own phone, sure, but I've seen 5 year olds with their parents phone. Tablets are common with the younger kids as well.
For parents, mobile devices are a magical box that can keep your kids occupied and away from you for hours.

I got an iPhone at 12, but it was a really cheap old one that came with whatever my father was getting free. And it was only 8 gigabytes. And I got it as a reward for getting accepted into a prestigious science program at a college hours away.
So a kid having an iPhone isn't really that bad, just as long as it's not an iPhone 7+ with 128 gigabytes and an unlimited plan. That's so excessive.

by high school (so like age 14), even today, almost everyone has a smartphone to the point where you'd be the odd one out if you didn't. definitely at least 95% from my experience in a suburban community. even by middle school well over half of the kids have phones, if i had to guess at least 80%. i know it seems really weird but i would at least seriously look into the idea of getting your kid a phone even when he's 12, though you might end up choosing against it. i would get him one before 16, though. it almost is necessary by then (and it'll become obvious if it is) because you'll want to be able to communicate with him wherever he is.

Youtube for Kids. No problems
newbachu ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 01:44:30 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The YouTube for kids AP on the Kindle is garbage (at least it was last time I tried it). I let both my kids watch way too much YouTube and just clicking over to settings there's a filter inappropriate content toggle or something similar. It keeps out most of the junk.
We just don't let the kids watch it if we're not in the room. Never had a problem with all the toddler nonsense my daughter watches but the boy loves FNAF so sometimes he wanders somewhere he shouldn't. It's actually been a good opportunity to teach him responsibility. He knows if he's watching something inappropriate he loses the Kindle.

In the same motion, be careful. My 4 year old has found his way to some sketchy stuff, heavy swearing, questionable content, all within a matter of a couple videos away from some paw patrol and Pokemon videos. He gets on average 30 minutes on his iPad a day, and still manages to get to the "kids dark side of YouTube."
I've even gone through and sorted and tried to lockout some videos. Thankfully my boy wants to watch the episodes only and not "the weird stuff" as he puts it.

The problem with youtube for kids is you can't pick the video resolution or downllad offline, which is kind of an important thing in a place with terrible internet like mine. I just keep checking "not interested" for every elsa/spiderman video i see on the suggestion list, until the algorithm fixes and shows only nursery rhymes.

There are multiple 'spiderman and elsa' and other Youtube 'childrens' videos that get weirdly perverted. Elsa eating shit off a toilet rim (probably not actual shit), spiderman raping elsa, grabbing the elsa actor sexually, elsa and anna incest, minecraft porn, minecraft school shootings. I did some digging when I first learned about these channels. Many of these videos have tens of millions of views. I was disgusted and weirded out what kids are watching on Youtube. I was even more disgusted and weirded out that there are adult Youtubers making this shit for money.

Right? When I was a kid, I was looking at wholesome content online, like rotten dot com, checking out rotten dead bodies and balls of penises and tubgirl.
Kids these days have access to some sick stuff.

A couple of years ago when we just had a desktop computer, I would forget to log out of my YouTube account. So at times when my nephews (one about 5 and the other about 3-4 at the time) were on, they would either watch channels I subbed to (which weren't kid friendly) or just watch all of these "Power Rangers vs X-Men" skit things.
Worst part was those skit videos would pop up in my recommendations

OMG THANK YOU. my ex lets our 5 year old watch regular YouTube because he can't put YouTube kids on the tv. And when she asks to watch it on tv l, instead of the tablet, he can't be bothered to parent her enough to say no or supervise. And she has gotten in trouble for accidentally (or not who fucking knows) watching things she should not.
Makes me so damn pissed off. Because when she's with him I can't stop it. And he's too lazy to do so.

I let my daughter watch some paw patrol videos one day and next thing I know her randomly clicking up next video links ended up on real life surgeon simulator. I don't even know what chain of videos would link those two. Though now 99% of my YouTube suggestions are from the same girl that works for a toy company that showcases new toys to kids.

I let my 7 year old use regular youtube but he is subscribed to cetain channels and has to ask if he wants to watch somebody who isn't on his list yet. Also if he isn't sure about a video he knows to ask an adult (that isn't my older brother the bad influence). I suppose it helps when they can read though.

The sad thing is that the original videos were completely safe for kids and obviously made by someone who knew a little bit about story telling, entertaining children and video editing. But now it is all copycats who saw the view count, bought the same costumes, and filmed themselves doing whatever outrageous bullshit they thought would get them some of that adsense money.

The only thing wrong with it is that the videos are always of a sexual nature.
Nothing X-rated but most times the characters are in their underwear and pretending to pee on someone, or the story involves someone stealing some's clothes and leaving them naked and crying.

Fuck. I'm one of those parents. Sometimes I'll end up watching some of those videos with my son or daughter. The Elsa/Spider-Man ones are annoying, but the worst ones are the HobbyKids YouTube channels. It's just parents spoiling the fuck out of their kids. They first started off with just a few toys and reviewing them in their small house. It was all cool. Now they have videos out almost everyday. Spoiling their kids and showing off those toys in their expensive cars at their Beverly Hills home. I banned that channel from my house.

My 3 year old is hooked on a channel that uses a Spiderman skin in GTA to drive trains around and shit. He parks cars, puts them on trains, sometimes does jumps but he never hits anyone.
I let my kid watch it because I find it funny. We always watch it with him and shut it off when autoplay tries to take us to the dark underbelly.

Because they like it. YouTube kids doesn't have the horrible stuff. It's usually just Elsa and Spider-Man messing around with the Joker, or Spider-Man and the Joker duking it out, sometimes Hulk.
Why would I force them to watch shows from my own childhood? That seems weird.

There's this channel that makes nonsense, half-naked, boardering-on-fetish stuff featuring people dressed as Snow White, Elsa and Spider-Man. There was one where he snaps his fingers to make Snow White and Elsa in binikins, and they cry and then Elsa takes Spider-Man's pants, then the girls fart on Spider-Man.
It's really terrifying. And it appeals to kids because it's their favorite characters, but probably half the audience is terrifying adults with odd fetishes.

Mainly because kids aren't experienced enough to know that "only for a limited time" means it'll be back next year or whenever ingredient prices drop below a certain amount. Like subways "limited time only pastrami" that comes out every year.

Nor of this universe; it's physical properties are extremely strange. Despite being consumable by humans, it somehow exists outside of the bounds of space and time, and violates the laws of thermodynamics. It is said that after the destruction of the universe, humanity asked McRib one question:
Can entropy be reversed? McRib replied. "Let there be light.", and soon a new universe, one filled with hope, joy, and the Shamrock Shake came into fruition, from the last vestiges of a dying star.
Due to the controversy of it, and how it voids the laws of physics, many regard the creation of the universe from the sweet, juicy, tenderloins of its patty, with signature barbecue sauce, with controversy and anger.

A 6 year old can read enough to navigate youtube, so let's compare a 6 year old to a 25 year old. For the 25 year old, 1 year is 4% of their life, it's pretty small and they've waited that long before. Most 6 year olds can't remember much from a year ago, it's 16% of their life.

I remember throwing a fit as a kid when a movie I wanted to see was out of the theaters. My mom said no big deal, we'll just watch it when it comes out on video (this was in the VHS days). I said no, it won't come out on video because the ads said "only in theaters". My mom was like, trust me, it's a Disney movie, it WILL come out on video.

It actually has nothing to do with the intelligence of the kids. Advertising is an ever-improving industry and every generation gives marketers loads of new data they use that data to make the advertising more focused and more effective.
It's also directly correlated with how much more media modern kids consume compared to just a few generations ago.

My Dad calls this the 'poverty tax' (no offense to your dad ofc). According to him, poor people actually end up spending more money on day to day non-luxury items than "rich" people (or people who grew up financially secure) because they can't resist the sales gimmicks shops put on.
They just gotta buy that buy one get one free pair of garden hoses even if they don't need them because it's a deal, and that money which could have been collecting interest in the bank is instead rotting away in their garages or pantries as a ton of useless junk they didn't even want.

Thanks for the interest and reply. My father actually purchased a house for ยฃ9,000 (with the help of a ยฃ4k grant to 'do up' the old house to help regenerate the area) in 1976 after working 80-90 hour weeks. He was a butcher at the time, but in rebuilding the roof of the house himself he learned to be a roofer.
He sold the house a few years after i was born, and bought an old Victorian house just up the road. This house is now worth from .25 to .35 million. Dad is 68 and still a roofer. He recently got a letter from our local Parish[definition] offering him the chance to re-render an Early Victorian church wall (such things are protected in England) for the price he quoted. Not many tradesmen get given such responsibility, and certainly not lightly.
He has two pensions and he earns enough that he hasn't had to raise his prices despite everyone else in the area having to so do. For him, work has never dried up. He has all the money he could ever need, and is still working.
But i recently had to go to our local Vodafone store to have them cancel two of his four contracts - these folk, these villains, will keep trying to sell him contracts with the promise of 'saving money' on a new phone. If he purchased the phone outright, it'd cost him ยฃ500+, but if he takes out a 24-month contract, he gets the phone and 'free minutes' for 'just ยฃ35 a month'. I had to explain to him that he'd be paying ยฃ840 for the same phone over time, and at the end of the two years that phone would be worth ยฃ200 at most. So why not buy a ยฃ200 phone outright?: "Because your brother needs a new phone".

I remember being little and watching the Saturday TV movies on the local over the air affiliates and every commercial break had one of two adds from a local window supply company. One add was them starting a timer for their special offer. The add in the next commercial break was them saying that you missed the special offer but to be on the look out for when their next special offer began.
It gave little six year old me anxiety that my family might be missing out on this amazing offer for new energy efficient windows. It also made me feel bad for the people who answered the phones because clearly they were watching the same channel and had to be synchronizing a stop watch to align with the add timer.
I hate advertising with a passion to this day.

Yep, kid thinks "mummy has to save her money, but that must not be very much money, so I get to eat mcdonalds tonight!" Then kid tells mum, and not only is the content of the ad being delivered to someone with spending power, the ad now comes with a free guilt trip, and the target has pay for kids as well. There's a lower chance of the ad reaching the target, but the target is more likely to buy, and will buy more.

Really? I would almost make the opposite rule and say if you ask me again a week from now, I'll get it for you. Even as an adult, most urges and cravings don't last very long. If you still want something or even remember that you want something a week later, it means you definitely want it.
But yes, I can completely see your point that it reduces whining, and I will probably do a mix of both because I doubt my kids will remember the tactics I used anyway.

Your way may actually be a better approach as it uses positive reinforcement instead of negative. I wonder now if using the caveat that they not mention it beforehand would also be helpful without diminishing the positive nature, maybe it would apply a good balance of positive and negative.

Sometimes you don't want to. There is a very real urge to spoil the everloving shit out of my son. He likes Moana? Guess who gets every Moana toy I run across in stores. At least once a week I'm in a store and say, "oh man, you know what would make him so happy?"
But it's not healthy, especially with him in his terrible twos, and I need to clamp down on the behaviour. The constant ads make it that much more difficult.

100% agree'd. 4 kids in my family and there was one rule that was NEVER deviated from. Never. Ask for something more than twice and you WILL. NOT. GET. IT.
Ask for something at the check out. You will not get it. Be helpful and be patient and SOMETIMES - ONLY SOMETIMES THEY WILL OFFER TO GET US SOMETHING. If we ask or pester, nothing.
There was 100% consistency. Shopping was quick. We all knew the rules as long as I could remember, the second we were being shits, we knew not to ask. The second we made a fuss - nothing for a week. We knew the rules and they were always enforced and we were never given to.
It was never a problem in our house.

Marketing gets ingrained in kid's heads. Even if it's not something in their demographic the idea of the brand will seem more familiar and comfortable to them as they grow older and become spenders themselves. You grow up your whole life hearing about how good all american Chevy trucks are, you're going to be more likely to buy one in the future.

Well, if it's a toy commercial, there's a good chance they'll pester their parent to buy that specific toy for them. And for the parent, it's easier to just pay 10 dollars to make their kid happy than to have a nuanced discussion about the social implications of marketing and the virtues of being a responsible consumer.

There have been studies showing that kids even influence the cars which their parents buy. So if the car companies can make the car seem cool to the kids then those kids will tell their parents it's cool when the parents talk about getting a car or go to car lot.
But beyond immediate influence over purchasing power, if they brand the kids early the kids will then later purchase and consume the products for themselves when they get older. So the marketers are in it for the long haul and looking years in advance.

Kids repeat EVERYTHING they hear. If they can repeat simple ad phrases, bang, you have a marketing conduit sleeper spy in the household. Kids are key marketing tools as bad as that sounds.

Toy companies often sponsor the creators, who make videos about or with their product. Kid sees the toy, looks cool, kid asks for it. Might get it. Basically modern Transformers or Pokemon. The entire show is a vehicle for merchandise.
It's why my kid likes shopkins, tiny worthless plastic figures. He saw them, they looked neat, wanted them, got them for Christmas/birthday, etc.

My 7 year old uses the youtube kids app. You would be amazed at the ad dollars spent by some companies. She only gets on it when we let her which is about 3 or 4 hours a week tops. But when she does man the ads that play are crazy.

I looked up a power rangers video the other day and there's actually a good amount of kid targeted ads nowadays. I don't think there was as much variety in ads a couple years ago. So by titling a video about something that's fit for a child, the algorithms can match ads specific or your content. Profit.

It's a combo of (1) the ad companies do not have the ability to filter the ads out based on demographic on some platforms; (2) advertisers do not care to filter it out (the poor dude/dudette who is running the campaign doesn't care as long as the campaign gets the estimated ROI.

Before my son could even talk, he knew how to watch videos on YouTube & the dish dvr. He would pause it, come get me or his mom, and point at the screen. Mostly Chuck e cheese, great Wolf Lodge, & Lego toys.

It could be because kids tap the screen a lot. My two year old was at the Amazon page almost about to order a toy car from a video. He couldn't have, but the YouTube channel got the click on the ad.

Even though I was born an American my parents were immigrants. I realized I have had a different childhood compared to some other Americans. My family doesn't celebrate nearly as many American holidays nor think it's necessary to buy gifts for almost every one.
So it might not be obvious to you but lots of family buy stuff year round for kids. Sometimes, kids aren't watching the videos alone either.

They don't. But ad companies are go-betweens which offer 'increased sales' to real world business owners. So business owners pay money in the expectation that they will be increasing their sales without knowing exactly which websites/videos their ads appear on, and then the advertising agencies just slap a load of their adverts on the web using 'special targeted software' and make huge amounts of money: it makes no difference to them whether the clients actually get increased sales. Well, theoretically the more sales an ad agency provides the more repeat business they get: I don't have any proof of this, but I suspect a lot of ad companies are little better than homeopathic medicine peddlers: if it doesn't produce more sales then they just tell the client that they need to advertise more. If it does increase sales then it was probably a coincidence but they can take credit. So either way they get repeat business anyway.
Not saying that internet advertising can never increase sales, but to my mind a lot of the industry is a con for gullible business owners who aren't very internet savvy. Most internet marketing agencies don't even get paid for increasing their clients' revenue: they get paid for delivering advert views, and for delivering clicks on said adverts, and they claim that this will increase revenues through increased exposure. But this belief is more likely to be held by business owners than by marketing specialists since it has been increasingly exposed as an imperfect theory to put it kindly. After all, ad views are usually just due to an advert appearing on the same page as the actual content on a website, and clicks linking to a company's website are usually just accidental, and so 'exposure' alone is very very unlikely to increase revenue in many situations.
Which is why the industry has been moving towards first 'click through rates' (specific clicks on adverts rather than just adverts happening to appear alongside content) and now complex website interaction analytics which can distinguish between real clicks and accidental clicks. This isn't so much due to ad agencies getting more efficient, since it loses them money after all to put restrictions on which ad views they get paid for: rather it is their reaction to clients getting more clued up on what they are actually getting for their money and choosing ad agencies that aren't going to rip them off. But this is still an ongoing development and there remains a lot of inefficiency, which suits ad agencies and third party advert hosters like Youtube and Facebook down to the ground.

Yeah, but for most kids shows? Your "fandom" is generally much more sexual than fandoms for other shows intended for children. Not saying all of you are into that, but you can't deny that certain people in your fandom take rule 34 to another level, and that there are far more of those people for MLP than there are for most anything else on the kids channels. Also, Google is pretty smart, but detecting the difference between MLP and MLP porn can be pretty damn difficult for a computer to do.

Caillou is a despicable, spineless 4-year-old boy who cannot do anything. He can't grow hair, not because he has cancer or progeria, but because he sucks, and even his own body recognizes that he does not deserve hair or food or love.

No. Caillou is much, much worse. Every waking moment in his life seems to be a constant tantrum. He acts like a little shit all the time. This is doubtlessly accompanied with loud screaming (ah, the shrill sound of a screeching bald fuckface on a Saturday morning.) His parents always proceed to give him what he wants. Always.
Of course, seeing this, kids repeat it. And then you have a bunch of whiny, screaming kids.
It doesn't help that the show's colors are garish and much too bright, the animation sucks and the names are all super weird. His parents are called Doris and Boris. Doris looks exactly like Boris but with a different color turtleneck and longer hair.
I hate Caillou. OP is right. He does not deserve love.

That's why Arthur is always going to be my favorite show. A lot of the themes and topics they discuss are relevant for all age groups, albeit it is still mainly made for kids. The one thing that would draw in adults though is that they parody modern, relevant pop culture things.
I don't know how well other shows like Dragon Tales stood the test of time, but Arthur in my book will always hold its weight.

I put Youtube toddler videos on my chromecast while my kid and I play legos. Although we primarily watch channels like Fizzy Toy show which are just really commercials for toys.
Tbh, a lot of people like to cry that parents are letting YouTube babysit kids. But it's no different than putting on Nick. My kid likes them, they are mildly entertaining sometimes, they're free and short.
The problem isn't YouTube babysitting, it's a select few shitty parents who let a screen babysit their kids. It's not a YouTube problem. If YouTube didn't exist these parents would be using something else to skip out on their kids.

It doesn't even have to be like that. Toddlers are repetitive by nature, they will watch the same thing over and over and over. And there's many of them. So take a whole bunch of kids, even if they watch that video only once in a while, the video would have a lot of hits.

Not just babysitting. I was watching my friend's toddler (Sorta. She was already 4yo) for a few hours, and at some point she just said 'let's watch youtube', typed in 'my little pony', and I just sat with her while she watched 10 or so random videos about it. A lot of it didn't even have anything to do with the show. I just did what you'd do with a kid reading a picture book, but it was with youtube vids of bronies.
My other friend just plays youtube channels of kids shows nonstop for his toddler, just like you'd play the TV in the background back in the day. I imagine it's quite common these days.

There also somewhat depraved in a sense. Like, they contain needles, shit, pregnancies, it feels more like some sort of fetish experiment rather than a kids show.
It's really sad in a way because they're advertising this sort of shit to the next generation of kids. These kids are literally going to learn that shit and they're probably going to do some weird shit. It's disgusting.

I admit when I was a kid, we often make our dolls and figurines do some weird stuff and play weird simulation games with them using anything we could find as a house.
It's just that seeing adults do all that for children instead of the children playing with the toys themselves is very...unsettling,

They're using weird and off-colour shit from the adult world in order to pander to that basic curiosity that kids have - like a much more sinister version of clickbait. The reason it seems all fetishy is because they're trying to show it in a way that's innocent enough for it to slip through the parents radar unnoticed, or at least innocent enough to make it hard for people to pin down just whats so fucked up about it.

I would always make my three year old daughter change those horrific videos. she would click a video and say "is this a bad one? " after a month she was pretending to be pregnant elsa, there is no way you can block YouTube users (if you block them it only prevents them from viewing you) so I took YouTube off of everything she hasn't watched it since. I honestly wonder how this generation is going to be impacted by watching this creepy malicious stuff.

Same thing with my daughter! I ended up just banning YouTube for both my kids. I haven't checked out the YouTube for kids app yet but I've been planning on it. It sucks that these people are targeting kids with these creepy videos.

I went to download the kids YouTube app and the reviews said there is no filter, just easier to navigate. They said they still had the weird dolls throwing up and pooping. We ended up getting an amazon tablet and paying $2 a month for inclusive kids apps, videos and games that are all completely appropriate. One time when she was watching YouTube the song was educational, but when I looked it was horrible cartoons giving shots to each other. They specifically made the song good so parents wouldn't second guess what they were watching. I know people who defended their kids watching it calling it "funny"....it's scary.

You can block channels to prevent them from showing up in your recommended videos. When you go to their channel, click on the "about" tab. In the top right hand corner you'll see a flag icon. Click on that and a drop down will come up. Click on "block user" and you'll never see that channel in your recommended videos again.
Of course, if you actively seek out a video by a channel you've blocked, you'll be able to watch it. But their videos won't show up in the recommended videos.

Nope, they don't, at least not for me they don't. For a while, YouTube kept recommending me anti-SJ channels, and I had no idea why. I am on youtube to watch makeup tutorials, WhatCulture Wrestling, and old Janet Jackson videos, why would I even be remotely interested in anti-SJ content? So I blocked a whole bunch of channels, and now they don't show up in recommended or related. Unless I get linked or seek them out, I don't see the channels anymore.

I did this one night, blocked like 50 users, within a week they were popping back up in related videos and she would click them. Especially that annoying Ryan kid, I think they can pay to pop up in related videos. It's like once you click on one bad video the whole selection is infected. So much easier to just forget the whole thing. When I was looking this up there was a mom who was working with you tube on this problem, but it came down to they aren't wanting to do anything that would miss out on money.

And that's just videos of kids playing with each other and doing family things. Don't even get me started on Elsa and Anna.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a4wgdcLpko
82,000,000 views.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF_2gjRcPFA
Over 64,000,000 views.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gimj8yE1UBM
This one is from the same channel that posts a lot of the GTA videos, but this one is live action, and only 9 hours old as of Feb 15, 2017.
Like who sits around and comes up with this shit, and takes themselves seriously?

I will admit the first time I saw them I had to forward through to make sure they were some 'dodgy porno' type thing.
Enter topless Spider-Man... Here to play in your swimming pool Elsa, you can see where the concern came from!
I find it crazy they actually found adults to 'act' (should I call it that???) in the vids....

If only. It's where they'll call the cops with a false threat, usually something like "Oh Pewdiepie has 6 hostages and he's threatening to murder all of them you need to hurREEEEEEEEE" or something. This prompts the SWAT team to respond instead of an officer or two.

In my area calling 911 and the police local non-emergency phone number goes to the same place, however only calling 911 transmits the caller info to the police. I'm guessing calling the local number transmits the caller ID information at best, and caller ID can be easily spoofed.

When I was a kid, someone burnt down my grandma's home. Which sucks.
What was worse? They took the box of matches and lighter fluid they used to start the fire.
And left it in a field next to the house.
They were fingerprinted and caught within 24 hours. House was still smoldering when they first went to jail.
If you're going to attack someone's family, at least be good enough at it that they get the satisfaction of watching the police hunt you down.
Our ordeal felt like, "Someone burnt down grandma's house last night."
" !!! "
"They're already in jail."
" !!! "
"Everything is gone, except the box of matches and lighter fluid they left in a field."
" ... WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!"
It was the strangest, most intense anger at incompetence I've ever felt. It made it feel more callous somehow that they would be such shit criminals.

they usually do it to twitch streamers
DarkLorde117 ยท 55 points ยท Posted at 03:03:42 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Twitch automatically saves VODs for ages. Any streamer and their mother could get a hold of that footage in minutes.
To answer /u/cookacola yes, the video can be used as evidence. Which is why nobody has ever been arrested for this. They explain the issue to the SWAT team, who usually didn't even know this was a possibility, and then they leave to look for the little shit who made the call.
However, there isn't a lot you can do about the terrifying experience of having an officer put a live gun in your face and tell you to get on the ground. The team can't afford to take chances so you'll rarely resolve the situation before they detain you with extreme prejudice.

Do you mean the person doing the swatting or the person getting swatted?
Because people have been caught doing the swatting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatting#Notable_cases
And, if I recall correctly, someone who was swatted got in legal trouble because the police found marijuana (oh the humanity!).
Even if no one is arrested, it's still so stunningly stupid and dangerous. Any situation where you encourage scared/adrenalized people with guns is so freaking scary.

I mean no streamer has been arrested for the crimes they were accused of by the swatter. Even if there were a matter that justified investigation, the streamer could simply pull up their footage and dismiss all of them.

It's easy enough to spoof or use a number not tied to anything. The phone system wasn't designed with security and authentication in mind. Just get a burner phone with cash or setup a Gmail account and then get a Google voice number tied to it. Caller ID won't link you back and tracking the person down is too expensive and too much trouble for most local PDs.

They caught many people doing it. It just takes time and resources. Over the course of a year feds caught half a dozen teenagers swatting in the USA. They tried each of them as adults with harsh convictions. From what I could tell, they were responsible for most of the swatting going down on Twitch. Either that or the feds succeeded in making an example of them and it stopped. Very little swatting happens now a days. You can do a quick google about swatting convictions and it'll come up with a lot of different stories all taking place around 2015.

I think after a while the local Police Station would catch on. "Oh, another hostage situation at this guy's place? Probably a prank call."
OTOH After 3 or 4 times I imagine the SWAT team politely knocks first and lets him answer. Or they ring his house first.

It's also worth mentioning that the perpetrators do some legwork to make it happen. They don't just call the cops and report the YouTuber. They trace IP addresses or do some online digging to find out the streamer's address. Then they call and say, "active shooter/hostages at [twitch streamers address]."
IMO, going through all that extra work just to be a dick makes the felony even more despicable.

Why would a SWAT team just break down a door without any information about what is behind?

Wouldn't someone at lease try to look in the window or peek trough the keyhole?

I think that's the thing where you call the SWAT team and tell them you know a person at X address has someone hostage, or is doing something dangerous and the SWAT team roll up in full gear. Amazing no one has been killed the SWAT team are on high alert one wrong move and they'll shoot and the victim often has no idea what's happening when they're confronted by scary yelling people with guns

Same thing happened to me with Toby. I used to watch all his videos, but then I realized how stupid he was (i.e., not my humor/style anymore). That's about the same time I found Mark. However, I found Jacksfilms through Toby, so I'm happy about that.

Ah... Christ man, it's been ages since I've last seen Toby. I used to watch him and The Annoying Orange back in 2011-2013 all the time.
Times have changed and so have I, but every now and then I watch one of Toby or TAO's video and go back to simpler times. Much of my personality when I'm out with friends comes from Toby actually, I looked up to him a lot.

There have been times when I went back to look at whats he's doing now, what he was doing, and how it changed. I realized his content changed right before I stopped watching. I also realized that the Literal Trailers weren't as good as I remembered. I actually found Mark from one of Toby's videos. I can't remember what the game was called, but it was a first person game that was EXTREMELY pixelated, and you were a murderer who invited a bunch of people to your mansion to kill them. I remember wanting to see what actually happened when you finish the game, so I looked to see if someone else had done it. Lo and behold, Markiplier. I think the first series I watched was Unfair Mario, or some other rage game from back in the day. Good times.

Guy builds his career off of one thing and drops it for something completely different aka for more money.

His name is Cryaotic https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCu2yrDg7wROzElRGoLQH82A and here is his laugh https://youtu.be/AVNyWDhGi7g
He has social anxiety, like I do so he doesn't show his face much. This is one of his friends named Snake: https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnUl2WkAx1HAJIhwap71gmiD_yPqhJOp1 And he does more live streams and here is the channel that you can find them at https://m.youtube.com/user/theboxedition and I hope this helps.
My favorite for Cry is his Bioshock Infinite series, The Walking Dead, and this one https://youtu.be/3rnICZKKFFU?list=PLeqwXTaiY-OyL66_KKCMVCzj2L-ZA83Ps enjoy. Warning for Binge watching lol.

Somewhat in Markiplier's defence though, at least he's not a gigantic douche. I find him annoying as well, and I cringe every time he makes a heartfelt speech because the man cannot edit his thoughts at all and ends up rambling and repeating the same stuff, but at least he's not going around being an asshole or scamming people or whathaveyou.

Ive started branching out feelibg the same. I like bullet barry, he tells stories of his life and plays games as well as talks about tech and games he plays. Its more of good story telling and less clickbate and repetitive jokes.
I also like rags overviews of games. He does a good job of pointing out both the good and bad of games and he is very up front about what are facts and what is his opinion and does alot of research on subjects he talks about.

if you truly cared for an answer, then rather than wait for someone else to post a source for you, you could've easily just googled it yourself..
But just in case there are others also too lazy to search, who might also think Keemstar is a good guy surrounded by "rumors", I'll simply show you one link I found literally just by searching "keemstar" (no "is bad" or "is evil" or anything, just his name) and clicking the very first link besides his YT. It's a sourced article detailing many (but not even all) of the reasons people think Keemstar is a sociopath (you can search a bit deeper if you want to find all the reasons for hate elsewhere but I don't have time for all that).
But one of the biggest (and more recent) reasons he's considered a sociopath is for his incident with witch-hunting an innocent 62 year old man to make a quick buck: for pretty much no reason other than to cash in on views, Keemstar decided to try to uncover the identity of a pedophile on Runescape, and ended up encouraging thousands of Keem's teenage internet army to harass this 62 year old man who he thought was the pedophile (he wasn't, it was a rushed accusation and Keem didn't care about getting to the truth; he did get a ton of viewers though for stirring up criminal drama around this poor old man).
The old guy ended up crying on stream because thousands of people were messaging, calling, and harassing him in any way they could, tarnishing his reputation when the guy just wanted to play Runescape. Keem also appeared to have no remorse over it until he began losing thousands of subscribers because of it (which led to his apology video). And unfortunately it wasn't an isolated incident, even besides the swatting which others have mentioned Keem has a history of getting his fans to wreak havoc by harassing others for him (some of it is detailed in the above article). Keemstar overall is like the poster child for horrible youtubers--those who whore-out clickbait for views, rarely post any original content, and rather stir up unnecessary drama while laughing all the way to the bank (he also of course has a history of revealing how little he cares about fans and how he does it all just for the money); as opposed to YouTubers who strive to please with original content, without needing clickbait or any childish drama/antics to get views and make a living.

I can't speak for Yamimash/obey alliance because I know nothing about those cases. RsGoldandGlory was bad definitely but he immidiately took the video down put out a correction and apologized. With Pyro he was somewhat half wrong. He never actually said "Pyro is a pedo" he was just saying what Pyros old friends told him but I can still see why that would be bad. Lionmaker however is verifiably a pedo. And JoshAs Skype was accidentally leaked but his YouTube URL had his real name in it already.

His success rate is more than indicative of his nature. Two out of however many does not justify his actions. He is a former lawyer and should understand moral and ethical duties and responsibilities. His blatant use of misinformation falls short of that with the things he disseminates to his followers. If he has proof of crimes like this, his responsibility is to report it to the authorities. Smearing people ad hoc is at best negligently careless. At its worst it's actionable defamation and morally bankrupt.

With that being said, if what they said in the video is true and that an equal amount of ppl came to support this guy is heartwarming. Does anyone know how long ago this was and how the old guy is doing now?
Rndmtrkpny ยท 63 points ยท Posted at 05:13:42 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I still follow his stream. There are still a lot of us out there that support him. He's actually (at least from what I can tell), just a nice older guy who likes Runescape. I haven't checked in on him recently (my job has become more time-draining than normal), but last I heard he was doing well.
I think it helped him feel better that so many other human beings were honestly concerned about him, and wanted him to continue. Watching a grown man seriously cry the way he cried will never cease to make me feel like crap, it legit hurt him and Keem basically apologized but didn't (if that makes sense). I have never met Keem, but I have a very intense hatred for what he did to this man and how he swatted other people whose channels I watched. I also dislike how he was flat-out banned from youtube and violated their policy with a loophole to get back on air. People could've died due to his actions. It's no joke and he needs to grow up and focus on becoming an adult.

I will give him credit in that it was his "team's" fault. Meaning that he claims to have fired the two responsible, but that doesn't seem to have changed his style of reporting (i use that term extremely loosely and only because I lack a better word other than shitposting). He is ultimately responsible for the content he puts out as he owns the channel, so yeah. The fact he didn't put any effort into checking the content before blasting this guy and starting a witch hunt makes it his fault as well.

no, it doesn't. Those subs he got from Keemstar don't often stick around and that level of slander often does permanent damage because the initial scandal received way more views and attention than the correction.
More importantly, "hey guys show this guy some love" doesn't make up for giving out his info to a bunch of idiots and trolls to assault him repeatedly after labelling him a pedophile

Trick2G set up a fake swatting. People came into his house looking almost like authentic swat team and he gets right up from his chair and starts swinging at them. Not only was he trying to get views, he was trying to act like he's not a little bitch and in a way saying "Fuck the Police" when in reality if he really got swatted he'd be on the floor crying. And if he swung he'd be shot. Lol

Plus, if the person who's swatted happens to own a dog, consider it dead. They have to consider them dangerous if/when they approach, and what dog WOULDN'T come barking to see wtf is going on if the door is suddenly smashed down? Or hell let's go further, if the person who's swatted thinks that there's a burglar, owns some sort of weapon, and goes to confront their invaders? Yeah they're getting lit up.

ArmadX ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 00:50:01 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Being swatted means someone called the police and reported a situation at your house like you have hostages at gunpoint or something. A SWAT team then arrives at the house
Wallflourish ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 01:08:25 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Okay, but do they break and enter/arrest whoever it is? And if so, isn't that illegal? If you accuse someone you need actual evidence before anything happens to them.
HALabunga ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 01:34:05 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
If the police think you're holding hostages or are about to kill someone, they don't have time to gather evidence and whatnot. They are gonna kick your door in, and they're gonna be rolling deep. Best case scenario is your door is destroyed, your house will be completely trashed from them turning it inside out looking for anything illegal, and there will be a nice new rumor in your neighborhood that your house was raided. People won't remember that you were cleared of any wrong doing, only that police were at your house with guns, so you must have done something bad. Oh and hopefully you don't have a dog, well it doesn't matter anyway, because you won't anymore after the police have shot him.
There's an old saying popular with both criminals and the police alike: You might beat the rap, but you're not beating the ride.
ArmadX ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 01:13:37 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I've never watched one but I would imagine they would subdue the victim, search the house, and then once they realise it was a fake call they would fill out some paperwork and then leave.
It's very illegal for the person who called and gave the fake tip off

Yeah this is pretty much how it goes down. However, if said SWAT team happens to find something illegal like drugs just chilling out when they come through then you can be arrested for that. Whether or not the charges stick depends on the quality of your lawyer.

Things work differently when you call in a bomb or hostage or meth lab or other thing that requires an urgent and decidive response. It's also illegal as shit to call it in falsely and you can do hard time and/or be sued if you aren't well-lawyered.

Tmartn is. Syndicate isn't
EDIT: For those wondering, Philip DeFranco made a video not too long ago (mid-late January and he touched on it at one point) mentioning it. I think only Tmartn is still being investigated because he was listed as the owner of the business. He's also been backtracking a lot. Made an apology video then deleted it. Gone back to all his videos and edited descriptions to make it look like he owned the site even though the video content says otherwise. He's digging a huge hole. Syndicate on the other hand handled it properly. He admitted his mistakes, he was honest about lying to his viewers, he apologised to them etc. Never heard if he had a punishment or not, probably got fined

Advertised/made content for a cs go skin gambling website. It was later discovered that they owned the site and was believed by a large part of the community that they were rigging large bets. It is a large issue because a large number of the users are kids and because there arent really regulations to control this type of gambling for "virtual prizes" despite the prizes having real world value.

Yeah I believe in one of the vlogs Syndicate admitted his wrong doing and said proper legal action was transpiring. It's a shame really, Syndicate doesn't seem like a bad guy but I guess that's the problem, you can't really tell when they are lying over camera.

Syndicate is definitely a grade A dick, he's still refused to pay someone who created content for him years ago (Mianite s2 trailer). He got too popular too fast and now has an ego too big to fit in his multi-million pound house.

As far as I know, when everything was exposed, Syndicate wound up apologized but Tmartn denied at first, started changing his story and videos on his channel, removed stuff, then started to sort of apologize but continued to bend the story thinking he could get away with it and sweep it under the rug. Then the investigation started. At that point Syndicate had shut up and lawyered up, basically not saying anything incriminating. Tmartn just kept thinking he could get away with it and hope his followers were none the wiser. That's about as much as I know, and loosely for that matter. Disappointed in Syndicate but glad he didn't pull the shit Tmartn did.

Syndicate's a dick but not an idiot. He knew that there was no way he was gonna get out of it so he decided to apologize and lawyered up.

I'll admit I was always biased against Syndicate because he was a pretty nasty content thief back in the day, (CoD 5 era, didn't really pay attention after that), but to see him burn makes me happy.
Once a piece of shit, always a piece of shit. Whether that piece of shittery is stealing other people's content and claiming it as your own, or setting up a shady as fuck gambling site and scamming those who look up to you.

I did not know he had stole content before... As harsh as it may seem, if I ever get things going again myself, I won't hesitate to deal with content thieves.

SirApatosaurus ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 01:36:53 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Don't know whether he improved at all, or even owned up to it and apologised, but CoD 5 he was a massive piece of shit about stealing content.
He'd take someone else's findings, pass it off as his own and then that was that. Don't remember if he actually had a channel before 5, but if not then it basically means he built his channel on being a thief and stealing from other people.
Like I said. Happy to watch him burn.

Oh... So like a lot of the scummy Easter Egg hunters for the Zombies modes? So many of them steal shit now. I think the only people I watch for CoD who will name sources where applicable are MrRoflWaffles (fair play to him as well for runnning his channel while still maintaining a place at university) and Drift0r. Pair of them are brilliant and aren't scumbags which ain't easy to find on YouTube when it comes to Call of Duty
SirApatosaurus ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 01:54:49 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Pretty much. Don't know how things are in that sort of community, but back in the day he was pretty much the OG thief.
Looking at his channel he seems to conveniently have deleted all of his CoD 5 vids.
Perhaps he got called out or there was controversy at some point, or maybe he just realised what a piece of shit he'd been, but either way he deleted all of the vids from 5 era.
Don't know how he has been over the years, but once a thief always a thief I guess. Especially given he turned out to be a hardcore scammer it wouldn't surprise me if he continued his thievery throughout the years.
The kid is scum. I tend to be an extremely friendly person and there are very few people who I actually genuinely hate, so that gives some context for how poorly I think of him.
Drift0r was someone I had a lot of respect for due to the quality of his productions, but I just grew tired of CoD so as good as he was I just wasn't interested.
Never really paid attention to MrRW, so idk anything about him.
OutcastMunkee ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 01:57:43 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, Drift0r himself has actually started to get tired of CoD. He doesn't like Infinite Warfare (don't blame him. It sucks) and now Modern Warfare Remastered got buggered up too apparently. He's slowly transitioning towards Overwatch and I don't blame him
SirApatosaurus ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 02:43:46 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
He's been tired of CoD for ages. When I left iirc he was really excited for titanfall because it looked promising and he enjoyed the game, and was hoping to move more toward it.
Guess that didn't go so well. Overwatch is something I could see him finding success with though, so id hope he does well because being forced to make CoD your life must be fucking soul destroying. I remember he wasn't exactly stable either, and CoD would hardly have helped his mental health.

I was so tempted to go up to him and ask him if he could recommend any csgo gambling sites for my little brother to bet on. I decided not to in fear of getting kicked out, but part of me thinks I missed out on a golden opportunity there.

No the lawsuit is still ongoing.
A Washington federal court ruled it didn't fall under the RICO act so it's moving to state level instead of federal. Washington against valve, and Florida against CSGOLotto.
Actually...no.
He didn't handle it properly at all. He fled the country. He is named in the suit and because he resided in the US during the time the suit is being filed for, he would be required to adhere to US law.
Instead of sticking around he left the US back to the UK in the hopes that the lawsuit wouldn't follow him... which could land him in even bigger trouble... like extradition back to the US to face charges, or any and all travel to the US banned.
Out of the 2 of them, tmartn may be the only one to get out of it with a fine.

Long story short, Tmartn and Syndicate created a website where you can gamble for skins for the game Counter Strike Global Offensive. It was open to all ages (already illegal, gambling is 18 or older) and anyone could use it. However, they lied to their viewers. They specifically both claimed to have 'found' the website they owned and misled people into using the site. Not only that, they could apparently rig the gambling from their end to make it more likely for them to win. They endorsed underage gambling, lied about owning the site and tried to hide it until they got caught out. Now they're up shit creek without a paddle. If you Google CSGOLotto, you can probably find plenty of articles and videos on it

ELI5:
TMartn and Syndicate are big Counter Strike players online.
In Counter Strike you can get random gun skins.
There are websites where you can gamble gun skins for money.
TMartn and Syndicate put up videos saying that they 'found' an awesome gambling site where you win loads.
Turns out they owned the website. Highly illegal.

And what makes it even worse is that a lot of their gambling was done vs. another unsuspecting player (also probably an underage kid) who of course had no idea he was playing against the owner of the site.
And the site would take a rake (percent of every prize) in the form of around 5-15% of the winnings for each game.
To keep up with the gambling at their own casino analogy, every time the casino owner wins he takes your chips and every time he "loses" you have to give him back chips you just won.
The whole thing was shady as fuck

That's how casinos work. They make money by taking a cut of all winnings or by decreasing the odds for you so they come out ahead.

You're right, but this isn't the problem with what happened with TmarTn and ProSyndicate. They had access to the back end because it's their website. It's possible for them to have manipulated the results of bets to make themselves win. I don't know if they confessed to it or if it's been proven, but it's possible. It's incredibly unethical to play on your own gambling site.
Imagine if a casino had a deck-shuffling machine that wasn't random. This machine would consistently "shuffle" the cards to be in a specific order. Imagine that the owners know exactly what the decks start out as and what the deck will become after it has been shuffled by this machine.
Now imagine that these owners play blackjack with other customers. The owners would come out ahead every time, while the customers think that they're just having an unlucky day.
h3h3Productions did a video explaining a lot of the controversy.

They made millions by posting videos of themselves "winning" thousands of dollars on a gambling site that they "found" and targeting teenagers or even younger specifically. They got busted for owning the casino the entire time.
That is not only illegal, and they damn well knew it, but also incredibly unethical. They deserve jail time and the grey area created by Valve is all that protected them.

Not disclosing financial ties, for example getting paid to promote a product or, oh I don't know, actually owning a gambling site that you're advertising to minors while acting like you "just found it" is actually wildly unethical and against FTC rules.
The other gambling sites are a problem as well, and possibly illegal, depending on how a judge would view online/ingame currencies. But that's actually a different issue and only still going on because noone has tried to take them to court yet.

They didn't trick anyone into playing on lotto necessarily, they acted like they found "this cool new site". When in reality they owned it, it's against the FTC rules.
Sadly I played in that site and made alot of money with it, but it turns out that they were manipulating the bots that run the site to get skins for free.
wartornhero ยท 17 points ยท Posted at 00:52:17 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Not only that. They would manipulate the bots to pay out to them while they were making videos about it. Which to minors made it seem like they would win all the time. Add in it wasn't regulated to a specific payout limit like slots/regular gambling is. Basically it was also the same sort of stuff that FanDuel and DraftKings were getting charged with but add in the charge of misleading advertising.
"watch me play... I don't know if I am going to win... WAHHHHHHHHH I won 500 dollars worth of skins!!! NOOOO WAYYYY"

They did trick them. They could rig it so they won expensive skins. Making it look like the site was the best one and gave the best skins. So people (kids who were their viewers) who go to that one because not only did they use it but they could rig it so they won.

Every casino in real life does that though. They show people winning all the time, laughing, just having a good old time.
"Loosest slots" "Hotest tables"
It's advertising, I'm not saying is right but showing them winning isn't wrong.
The rigging is where they went wrong, I lost to psy a couple times. I was fuming when I saw all that was going on.

But you know it is a casino doing it. They were pretending they were just playing for fun. No one knew they had any part of the company. It would be like me saying man I bought these scrath offs and every time i have them I win. Then you find out I made them and rigged me winning so you would buy them. Now if I was upfront about owning it then you could judge my winning as skeptical or at least make a fully informed decision. They didnt do that.

I mean that is tricking people into playing is it not? That is why you are required to disclose you have an interest. If someone thinks your results are genuine or you have no financial ties they (especially kids) are more likely to believe you.

Encouraging minors to gambling was just all around the issue with CS:GO skins and gambling. The actual bad part was that they just didnt disclose that they were affiliated with the website, AND that the owner is gambling on his own side. Thats a HUGE nono, and while i am not sure if its illegal even in real casinos, i dont know if the law works with on the internet. But in the end its just something that is shameful and frowned upon in itself.

Well, you own a gambling site and want people to use it. What do you do? Id make it seem like its very easy to win, so I program it that I win it every time I gamble and stream it or something. Viewers see it and start using it too, but they get the normal rate of chance.
Not sure if they did this, but I'd do it.

Tmartn and Syndicate set up a CSGO gambling website and promoted it on their channels pretending they stumbled across it, bearing in mind their content is aimed at minors. They would then win big on their own website (possibly due to rigging) and encourage these minors to use the website. Not only is this extremely unethical, it is illegal. This is putting a very long story short so I would suggest watching h3h3's video for more detail.

Another streamer who was also a founding member of CSGOLotto. You just don't hear about Syndicate because he didn't try to cover his tracks after he was found out and apologized. Because he did that, the controversy died down quickly.
Tmartn however kept trying to cover his tracks and blatantly lie about the whole thing. Then there was that AWFUL apology video. That's why he's more well known for it.

Because the exploit isn't immediately clear, I think what you're getting at is someone posts click bait title > a bunch of people click it > it gets shown to more people and cycle continues.
The algorithm would be better if it was based on average visitor time on the video or amount of likes

Hot knife video was not flagged with any languagem therefor suggested in every language. Since people everywhere around the world watched it, it got recommended a lot. Why a stupid pseudo scientific shit video over other stuff, I have no idea.
That's how PewDiePie blew up. He moved from Sweden to Italy, while speaking English, having his videos watched in two different countries that have no significant cultural connection meant for the yt algorithm it has international appeal and boom it gets suggested everywhere. (I guess it helped that he's handsome, his topics were video games or popculture related and his humor was... accessible to all ages.)
There was actually a change in the algorithm someone recently and Youtubers complained a lot about it. Instead of suggesting the most recent videos of channels you visited before, it now focuses more on the "top hits" of that channel, promoting sustainability over throw away content and click bait.

YouTube measures clickthrough rate on videos on the sidebar (how likely people are to click on it when they see it). Then they populate the sidebar with those videos with the highest clickthrough rate (to maximise clicks) - meaning that you end up with only the very most clickbaity stuff in the sidebar. I've ended up blocking the sidebar with my adblocker, for my sanity.

Back about 10 years ago, YouTube was a different beast. It didn't matter what the content of your video was, if it was the most viewed video then it made the front page of YouTube. Nowadays the entire front page is curated for a PG audience, with politically correct videos being pushed to the front even though they lack the views, comments and likes that other videos have. YouTube is owned by Google, and we see how Google curates their algorithm, so it shouldn't be a surprise that YouTube is the same, even if it is disappointing.

If what you say were the case then YouTube's Popular and Spotlight pages wouldn't frequently show videos with <10k views. These videos tend to have nothing noteworthy or deserving of being on the front page except that they often come attracted with a political message or sponsorship.

they have changed as of late. They now place a heavier value on viewer retention and view time.
So a channel with say 1 mill subs uploading a daily video that is 30 min long, that without suggestion is getting 10,000 views a day, and viewers that watch to the end of the video, will be promoted more often than a channel with the same subs and daily viewers putting out 10 3 minute video's a day, or a channel where the viewers regularly stop watching after the first 30 seconds or so.
This is still exploitable, but from an entirely different group. Noticed all the tonight show-esque suggestions you've been seeing lately?...

Back when GTA V was first revealed to be coming a YouTube channel popped up. It's focus was around GTA V and there were a group of friends who ran it.
They posted real information on GTA V. The channel got over a million subscribers by the time the game came out.
Then all the guys that created that channel together started their own. They all used every click-bait tactic in the book appealing to teenage boys and took control over the GTA niche pretty much on YouTube. They had the advantage of having multiple channels bringing new viewers.
So, every other GTA channel saw what they were doing and started doing it as well.
Thus, the GTA V YouTube idiots were born. All the good GTA V channels don't have nearly as many views sadly because they don't show up in YouTube's algorithms because these people have taken over.

While it sort of is, it could potentially make their video or whatever more likely for actual people to click.. You'd be more likely to click fake GTA6 video with 250k views than one with 25 views.
Get the initial bulk of views to pseudo-validate the video and it becomes more appealing to the common clicker.
It could potentially help kick off your youtube channel (definitely helps if your content is actually something the viewer would want to come back to) and eventually you don't need to buy views and now you're banking real. cash off selling ads.
Sounds to me that it could be a good return on investment if the price for fake views was fair and you had content that people would come back to..

He was obsessed with Xbox and Halo so he would click on every single clickbait title out there about leaks and previews and everything and about 7/8 of them were rickroll and the remainder was random BS. He would get so mad about the rickrolls he would occasionally get kicked out of the lab. He was in grade 11 at the time.

I made a video of some local flooding several years back. It was really just to show some friends of mine, and myself. It got a few hundred hits. Then someone I've never heard of copied it, put a bunch of hyperbolic capital letters in the title, and got several million hits out of it in days. Nothing else changed about the video itself, other than they limited it to 480 when I had recorded at 1080. It's all about marketing and appealing to the casual YouTube browser or bored kid.

I've heard it said that the NFL/NCAA football has a low number of games to reduce wear on the athletes, and prevent injuries. Meanwhile, hockey players are literally punching each other in the face regularly, and slamming each other into plexiglass, and play like 5x or more games than football players. Don't get me wrong, I watch football and enjoy it, the situation and contrast is just funny to me.

That is completely irrelevant. I am a sports fan and love to talk about sports when there is something going on as in a recent game or a pending trade. That sub trashes people who act like any sports discussion at even those times is irrelevant. A sport two months into the off season is worth an update article on what is going on, not 7 days of talk on speculation of things that for the most part don't matter.

I also like mindfuzz, he makes detailed videos about each rank as he is in them himself, admits where you just have to "git

I was subscribed to him before the release of Overwatch due to news and stuff, but after release his videos became very clickbaity. I finally unsubscribed when after constantly complaining about people complaining about competitive, and saying that it's not bad and that you just have to play together, he uploaded a video saying that he never actually played solo queue before and was just assuming that barely anybody does, that everybody has a bunch of friends to play with like he does, and now that he tried out solo queue he finally understands what people were complaining about.

And getting featured on the blizzard battlenet client and invites to events for first hands on looks etc id do the same if i was him but i do miss the old sty and kiri podcasts and banter because now unless ur invested in overwatch its not worth watching

British person here - the vast majority of YouTubers seem to be American to me, but British youtubers are allowed to exist too - America isn't the only country in the world. I know what you mean about "personalities" though, eg Dan and Phil, I think it's mostly because teenage girls like their accents - but I see way more American YouTubers, personally.

AwesomeBantha ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:00:04 on February 14, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Unit Lost (Stylosa) is the worst Overwatch YouTube "celebrity". He has no idea what's going on, gives purposefully bad advice, and relies exclusively on clickbait.
Despite disliking almost every video of his that manages to autoplay, they still feed me this crap.
wyatt1209 ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 00:54:30 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I get a very different impression of him. He usually says in the title if something is speculation vs fact, is a grandmaster so at least has a mild idea of what's going on and I haven't really come across any instances of him giving intentionally bad advice.
AwesomeBantha ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 01:34:03 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
IDK, I feel like Stylosa is in a position where he benefits from spreading conflicting information.
This all originated with the "rank doesn't matter" scheme. This creates a situation where Stylosa can encourage people to play games without worrying about rank (which they should, to some extent). Then, when players fall down, he can post "motivational videos" with clickbait titles that the same people who fell down are likely to watch. Stylosa ends up creating an ecosystem where he can circle through bad play he may or may not have encouraged and rake in ad revenue.
I'm not saying that all of his advice is bad, but the way he heavily pushes these ideas makes me question the accuracy and reliability of his content, to say the least.
Jathom ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 00:48:09 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I used to watch Stylosa when he was on Twitch doing mini painting. I miss those. I unfollowed him after he switch to exclusively Overwatch. I realize it's popular and it gets views, but it's so ... generic. Like "everyone is playing it and people are watching it, so I'll do it too," sort of thing.
But I find FPS streamers incredibly boring to watch and YouTuber's aren't much better.
Maybe he'll go back to his roots one day and I might watch him again.

Also onenickle or whatever his name is. He is always in my suggested because his titles are relevant OW information but his videos are 33% OW and 66% bullshit about literally anything he finds interesting. Like it legit wouldn't be too shitty if he didn't artificially increase video length or actually mentioned all the videos topics in the title. I can't even escape it because I watch so many other Overwatch videos.

Man, Unit Lost was the best when Overwatch first came out. In-depth tutorials from someone who genuinely cared about the game, complete with "here's a common mistake I was making and how to avoid it?" Fantastic.
Then the videos got longer and longer and about nothing. Unpacking 100 loot boxes and overacting about cosmetics. Stupid speculation videos every single day. "Explanations" that would ramble on and on, going in circles. I finally unsubscribed when I realized I was disliking almost everything he put up. I can't remember exactly what video it was but I think it was about some nerfs he suggested for a character. He repeated "but is that enough? I don't know" like fifteen fucking times.
His scripted videos were far better.

You don't understand how many people ask us about GTA6 on a daily basis. Unfortunately most of our customers only have access to mobile data. So they rarely do research on a regular basis and fall for these click-bait videos/news.
We all know Rockstars is working on Red Dead 2. They rarely ever work on more than one project at a time. So GT6 is still years away. PS: Please let GTA6 be Vice City. I want to die a happy man....

I've been watching a lot of Breath of the Wild stuff lately, and I have come to the conclusion that the word "walkthrough" simply has no meaning anymore. An hour of developer gameplay with them explaining cool mechanics? Apparently that's a walkthrough. Twenty minutes of the public demo with a fanboy gushing about random stuff? That's a walkthrough now. Ten minutes of promo footage with no commentary at all? Yup, walkthrough. It was bad enough when people were calling (obviously blind) Let's Plays "walkthroughs", but the game isn't even fucking out yet.
It's just ridiculous at this point. They just put whatever words they think people will be searching for in their titles to try to get hits.

Pretend he was colorblind.
CONTEXT: There was that guy named "Logan" who made a video about his color blindness and that he just got glasses that "fixed" his color blindness. Well, he got exposed for it after a week or so but that video went really viral (11.7M views). He even had a few videos that he uploaded like a month before that where he said how beautiful his bird was with all the "colors" so this guy wasn't even colorblind. and ofcourse h3h3 made a video out of it as parody.
EDIT: To clarify, I know that color blind people still see colors but they see it in a different way then non-color blind people. But the point that I wanted to make is that Logan really over reacted and made it way bigger then it actually was. He also recognised the colors on his bird. his freaking bird was green, yellow, red and even blue. THIS IS THE BIRD I'M TALKING ABOUT.

Well, to be fair, some people who use wheelchairs aren't paraplegic. It might be that he had rheumatoid arthritis or something that makes walking for any length of time super painful, but he can stand up for short periods of time if he doesn't mind the discomfort.

And sometimes the issue isn't so much as being unable to stand up, but to keep balance while standing.
That said, I saw the video, I don't think the guy in the wheelchair had one of those issues. He stood up completely unhindered.

Logan Paul. It was really funny/infuriating too, because at the end of the video, he was saying things like "Can we get 100,000 likes guys, cause this...this is just amazing", as he gazed at a rainbow with his colorblind-fixing glasses.
Apparently because he can see colors now, his video should get more likes than usual.
H3H3 and iDubbbz collaborated and made a video showing just how ridiculous and over the top the whole thing was. To the way Logan would gasp in an overt-display of emotion, to how he completely exaggerated his colorblindness (if it even exists) for money.

I got worried for a second, because I saw a video of a colour blind guy getting EnChroma glasses and it was really cool. He was a bit startled by the colour purple, and otherwise just filled with child-like wonder. I'm glad it wasn't him that faked it.

I'm colourblind myself and can't see purple. Enchroma was an interesting invention but it's far from the miracle people made it out to be. I'd assumed most of those videos were wildly exaggerated as part of a marketing campaign.
ForePony ยท 29 points ยท Posted at 05:03:21 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Those glasses are hit or miss. Don't really fix colorblindness, just change what color something is since the lenses are just filters. My parents got me a pair for graduation but they didn't do a whole lot for me. Made driving more dangerous since green and yellow looked exactly the same instead of a difference in intensity. Almost seemed like those images shown in the HDVision or whatever the hell they are infomercials.
The great thing about the company though is the money back guarantee. I think they also included shipping.

I get that you're trying to look smart by pointing out that red and blue wavelengths are in the opposite ends of the spectrum, but purple is still a real colour.
Your computer screen doesn't have yellow LEDs, but that doesn't mean the yellow colour displayed on a screen doesn't exist.
metaaxis ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 12:39:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Purple doesn't exist as a single wavelength, but it absolutely exists as a synthesis in our perception of the blend of red and blue.
Might as well say that all the colors on a computer or mobile screen don't exist other than red, green, and blue. While everything other than rgb is a blend of more than one of those wavelengths, blends exist in the real world too, and we can't tell the difference between a monochromatic yellow and two wavelengths blended at intensities that cause the same average excitation of our pigments. Things that emit those wavelengths will be described as yellow, even though there may be no yellow wavelength present.
Best to specify if you're referring to the electromagnetic wavelength specifically, at which point, there is no such thing as purple, while there is such a thing as yellow, red, green, etc.
Tl;dr: Perceptual color models are in heavy use (they came first after all), and in those, color names are not reserved for single wavelengths.

That had to be wrong, it has a wavelength, that can be measured, and it's within the range that our eyes can see. It's like saying turquoise doesn't exist because it's between green and blue, it's there, in the spectrum, we just have to define it as being between this and that wavelength.

Was he trying to say that he had monochromatic vision? Color blindness doesn't mean you can't see any colors at all, just that you have issues telling certain colors apart (which colors you have issues with are dependent on which light cone is deficient).

What makes me angry is that so many people didn't notice how fake it was. His die hard fans seemed to just straight up forget he'd made references to noticing colours in previous videos. There was some part in the video where he pretended he didn't know his pet parrot was colourful, but in his youtube bio he specifically mentions he has a colourful bird.

Colorblindness isn't just grey tones. I didn't watch the video start to finish so I don't know all he had to say, but it's still possible to know some colors.
That being said, the video was still fake and his reaction was obnoxiously over the top.

This. I'm colorblind. Bad enough the Navy wouldn't let me fly but after 40 years of it I can identify almost any color when asked. I didn't even know I was colorblind until MEPS at 18 years old. I have trouble when colors are by themselves but when put together it's usually not hard. I don't know if I'm just logically figuring out colors or what but nobody would ever know I'm colorblind if I don't tell them.

Colorblindness, from what I know and have experienced, is usually seeing a color as a different color.
Example: I saw a stain on my jeans. It was a red stain. I saw it as a green stain.
Now, I'm barely colorblind(very specific shades of red), but I think it's along these lines for most.

Sadly no. What I see is very similar to the light green pencil in the second row of this picture posted by u/slowy. http://i.imgur.com/BSOVVNT.jpg It's less saturated than the top, and leaning towards brown, but it could go either way. Obviously though, being colourblind it's hard to know what you see when looking at that picture. I find it pretty hard to differentiate the top and second row green, but if I concentrate I can see that the second is closer to brown.

A bizarre conundrum. I wonder if we can ever truly be positive if we're seeing the average amount of intensity for a color outside of taking hundreds of those color blindness testers with varying levels, some of which are probably difficult even with perfect vision.
Anathos117 ยท 17 points ยท Posted at 00:40:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
More precisely, it's not being able to tell two colors apart. The most common is red-green color blindness, which is caused by the red and green cones both being triggered by both red and green. To such people there's no red and green as separate colors, just a single redgreen.
It sounds like for you the sensitivity bands of red and green cones are far enough apart that only certain shades of red trigger it while others can be distinguished as red.

Not sure who you are talking about but on one of those fake colorblind glasses videos , the dude literally started fucking bawling his eyes out! It was clear he didn't bother to research what color blindness actualy was before he faked having it. I think he later fucking dyed his hair purple and one of the top comments was something like "obviously he has a special connection to the very first color he ever saw!".

Not excusing what he did at all, but TBH, people could have told him he has a colorful bird, and if you searched for his birds species, you would probably find a few descriptions of it saying colorful. If you actually are somewhat colorblind, then the word has less meaning to you, so actually seeing it would be a big deal. There are a surprising amount of ways to work around such things, and even partially color blind people can sometimes somewhat tell the color they are normally blind to in certain situations. I Only ever hear people claim he can actually see color, but almost no one ever explaining how they know that besides his vague references to colors, which does not prove anything.

In the colour blindness video he acts shocked when told his bird is colourful. Yet he already talked about it being colourful previously so he obviously already knew and was just hamming up his 'colour blindness' for the video. It's not about how colour blindness works really, it's just about a dude lying to create a fake narrative for views.

Logan Paul uploaded a video a few months back saying that these glasses had cured his colorblindness. Except it felt really fake, what stood out the most is during it he finds out for the first time his super colorful bird with 4 or 5 colors isn't solid yellow. This pissed me off because I'm pretty sure there isn't a colorblindness that makes you see green, blue and red and I think orange all yellow. and that would mean he would see almost everything as yellow, so he should of known it wasn't just yellow.
Anyways then after the video comes out h3h3 and idubbbz do a video on it and they also point out how fake it is. They even pulled up a video of him identifying different colors from his led lights, proving he knew the difference. All in all it was just a sad attempt for view and subs, although it did work.
tl;dr Logan Paul made a video about how glasses cured his colorblindness, except it was faked and he wasn't colorblind.

For someone who hasn't actually watched tana's videos, you sure have a lot to say about it, she never fucked a toothbrush. It was a rumor spread about her that she talks about. Idubbbz went unprovoked to spew racist words in front of kids. Tanas demographic is not her fault, just like idubbbz demographic isn't his fault, but I'm pretty sure a 25 year old man should have better judgment than a just turned 18 year old.
[deleted] ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 01:48:31 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
so let me get this straight. idubbbz is wrong for doing something inappropriate in front of Tana's audience (which he didn't, btw, the entire point I made originally was that he was never near any of her audience, and was in fact in a private greeting area separate from everyone), but regardless,
so idubbbz = bad for non-child friendly behavior near a child audience, but Tana =/= bad for creating said audience of children with non-child friendly behavior?
so, it's "not her fault" that she makes non-child friendly content and her audience just happens to be children... and she holds no responsibility for the type of content she creates and projects towards this audience she has, knowing full well that they are children (according to you)
but idubbbz is bad because he showed up to a single event and was near 0.000001% of Tana"s audience, and said a bad word. a word that Tana herself says. to her audience. on social media. to tens of thousands of them.
....... am I following your train of logic here correctly so far?
EmoTomatoes ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 02:02:06 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
You haven't proven any of what you've said at all. Matter of fact, you didn't even acknowledge that most of her video titles are clickbait and not actually her talking about a time she fucked a toothbrush, for instance. So you say that she makes videos talking about it, but yet she hasn't. Hmm. Something doesn't add up. She doesn't control who watches her videos or who her audience is. I could go make adult content videos right now and put them on YouTube and still kids would watch and would be a large demographic, big surprise kids are curious about sex, but what idubbbz did was 100% unnecessary and pathetic and he did it for views. The same way Tana over exaggerates and uses clickbait titles, and clearly tana's method works if you yourself were stupid enough to fall for it, without any idea that it's clickbait and not sexual content.
Even if Tana would have been saying she fucked a toothbrush, Tana isn't going to other YouTubers events and saying the n word around children. Point blank period. Like grow up.

Context matters dude, a word only has power if you give it that power. he wasn't in front of a crowd of people, he did it as a stupid joke and he admitted that it was a stupid joke and all she had to do was be an adult and say that what he's doing is immature of him. he did it to prove a point about tana, that she's immature herself and exaggerates things for views. And also that she's a hypocrite because even though she says context doesn't matter so it should never be said but the problem is even though he never uses the word with intent to harm she in the past has, it's on video. You can't stop a person from saying a word like that (especially when in no intent to offend) because the only people offended by a word are those who allow themselves to be. The best way to fight the power of a word is to never give it power in the first place. People see desensitization as a bad thing but if you are not offended by something it no longer holds power over you when those with intent to hurt use it.

The reason was pretty obvious. He knew she was a crazy exaggerating liar who had recently become very sanctimonious. So he knew if he showed up, pretended to be getting a photo while actually recording, incited her, and waited for her to crank the imagination machine up to 200% that he could expose what a crazy liar she is indisputably.

I really don't understand why he needed to call someone out for something he endorses himself. The most fucked up thing is that many of his fans are very young, and he's basically just told them that bullying is fine...

As someone who is colorblind, the video pissed me off a bit, because he was over exaggerating for attention. However, I also want to point out that this comment is misinformed-- Logan has mild red green colorblind, the same as me. I can see plenty of colors, but the issue arises with darker tones, and I couldn't see anything of the tests he couldn't see.
TL;DR: He did not fake being colorblind, but he over exaggerated for attention. Also the glasses don't change all too much

Ehh. I'm red green colourblind. I can see colour fine, and probably would have gotten the glasses if they worked for me. But apparently they only work for specific types of red green colourblindness and all it does is allow you to differentiate colours slightly better.

Well to be fair, color blindness is the inability to distinguish different shades of different colors. So "fixing that" would just be more contrast.
Source: am colorblind. Never thought much of it. Went to the eye doctor for glasses and when I couldn't see some objects on their test, they told me I was color blind. Just thought "huh. That sucks"

I'm really curious to see how those glasses work. I've been diagnosed with moderate red-green colorblindness (not complete) and I still feel as though I can see all colors on the spectrum perfectly, despite having failed nearly every Ishihara test thrown at me. I can tell between vibrant and dreary paintings like others and it feels like I'm not much different from anyone else other than performing exceptionally poor on color tests
Goheeca ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 00:35:19 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The glasses block a part of the visible spectrum where the perceptions of red and green cones are overlapping. The red-green colorblindness (when you have all of the cones functioning) means there is bigger overlap so the glasses partially solve it by blocking the problematic part. So there should be a significant effect.
EDIT: If you look at an actual rainbow, you'll see less colors, there will be missing stripes between the main colors. Normal objects reflect whole spectra and in this case the effective spectra (spectra of cones including the blockage by glasses) resembles more spectra of normal vision and help you better differentiate colors, i.e. bigger contrast.

I am definitely not a die hard fan, but I have watched his videos and I'm just gonna state some facts, correct me if I'm wrong. He has mild deutan, this means he can't see a certain color range, not that he can see everything b/w(no colorblind person can see just b/w, they are mostly missing certain cones which pick up certain colors) This guy had mentioned on some interview years before being on YouTube when he was "vinestar" The colorblind glasses were suggested by his viewers when he had started his channel(daily videos) and in a video probably 2-5 days before the video in which he ordered the glasses he kept mentioning how he couldn't see some frogs and stuff under green lighting in an aquarium(comments on that video were a just people telling about glasses for color blind) The comment that he saw his bird as one color was obviously a joke, that's how he talks in his videos, as he literally said "my bird is one color"(he has paintings and stuff of his bird all over, he obviously knows his bird has all different colors)
EDIT: yes he overacted in the video, but he is colorblind, let's not just say that he faked his colorblindness, in his later videos too you can see him wear those glasses occasionally

The thing that makes this even more of a dick move is this was based of a load of popular reaction vids to these EnChroma glasses which genuinely let colourblind people perceive colours (or so i hear, i'm not colourblind so i've no idea) which if it legitimately works is pretty fucking cool. This very emotional guy flipped out apparently seeing purple for the first time and the video went viral. Then everyone saw there were clicks to be had copied it or did a parody, colourblind or not.

maybe I have to clear this up. I know people who are color blind see colors in a different way. but this guy described all the colors of his bird perfectly in a few videos before that video as I stated. If he was color blind he wouldn't have seen the same colors as people who aren't color blind. so all in all he faked that video and Idubbz made a parody about it with h3h3.

Sorry, but you're still mistaken. Colorblindness can be very subtle. I, for example, didn't find out that I was colorblind until I turned 28 (funny story actually). I can describe 99.9% of all colors accurately. There are a few that I cannot distinguish. I am red/green colorblind.

yeah that video was bullshit, most colorblind people can still see color. They just have a difficult time distinguishing certain specific colors (like red and green). I am this color blind with red and green and if i got something to "fix" my "colorblindness" then I would just be underwhelmed. Honestly the most colorblindness has done to me is make me move to the front of the class when a teacher was using red chalk on a green chalkboard.

This video really pissed me off. I'm colorblind to the point that the glasses only give me a 30% to see any correction. For a guy who can already see colors to mock something like this is sad. I mean I get it, I'm fully functional... it's barely a hindrance, aside from matching clothes and everything else that has to do with colors. But it's still a thing that many people have to live with. For the people who the glasses DO help, it's a gradual adjustment over time... like your brain has to process these "new" colors. It's not just an immediate BAM! My grandfather was completely grey scale colorblind. I just hate how people mock this thing and don't even understand how it fucks with us. You ever second guess yourself like all the time on small stupid shit you should've learned in kindergarten, for your whole life? Yea... like I say, it's not like a learning disability or a lost limb but it can really fuck with you and your self esteem. Fuck that guy

You can be colorblind and still see colors. I have a form of red green color blindness and it just means I can't see as many reds and greens as most people. I don't know if he was pretending to be monochromatic color blind though.

... um, you do know being "colourblind" doesn't mean you can see black and white right? I haven't seen the video, but as a vision impaired person who has friends who are colourblind, they just cannot properly see certain colours such as red, green or blue light.
I'm sorry if you already know this, I just got the impression that some people do not fully understand colourblindness and assume it means you cannot see any colour whatsoever. I Have issues sometimes telling apart red and orange depending what shade the colour is. I'm not colourblind, but for me I have contrast issues due to my eye condition.
In my opinion, faking it doesn't seem to be too hard at all.

I always found it a bit fishy because Enchroma glasses don't cure colorblindness. They just fix color deficiency. If you can't see red, they won't make you see red. If you are deficient in red, they can help you see it better.

I am colorblind. You do realize colorblind people see colors you moron. What the fuck is with people thinking colorblind people see things in black and white we see in COLOR the name colorblind is misleading. Our eyes see colors differently to normal people but we still see color and it still looks nice and vibrant we just see it different and a lot of colors can blend which is why it's dangerous for us to do certain jobs like be an electrician. I sometimes confuse brown and red depending on the shade of brown or red i can clearly tell that blood is red or poo is brown because it's an obvious brown or red but not all things that are red look the exact same color as blood and not everything brown looks exactly the same brown as poo

I get what you're saying, but to be fair, colorblindness doesn't have to mean that you only see black and white. His colorblindness made him see some specific colors as gray. The colors his bird hava may be some of the colors he can see, or someone simply told him about his bird.

Android actually has an option to simulate the common color blindness types (Protsomething, Deutsomething) under developer settings. No idea how good it works, for me (Protsomething) there isn't much change. Probably removes a lot of the reds I don't see anyway :0
For the Enchroma effect, there is an option under Accessiblity that will try to help distinguish colours.

She's 100% involved and happy about it. Maybe sometimes she gets pissed off for a while for real, but I would suggest it's mostly acting.
If she wanted to leave she would do.

Onision, most likely. Dude is a certified asshole. He has a large following of young teen girls that he is really creepy with. Even dated a few of them even though they were underage, and then brone up with them later, typically around 18-20, and tends to make fun of them on twitter/YouTube and says it's all their fault, etc.
Recently he started a fan site, and on their girls can post pictures of themselves and he will "rate"them on how attractive there are. If that wasn't creepy enough, these girls are below the age of 18, and are posting pics of themselves in their underwear. People have been reporting this to the FBI, but nothing has come back on that. Then again if the FBI is actually doing something about this creep it's not like they would publicly say it either.

Why just the FBI? You can report this to the regular police as well.
Pidgeapodge ยท 104 points ยท Posted at 00:42:08 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
The FBI handles interstate crimes. In the olden days before it, criminals would rob a bank near the border and cruise over to the next state. The first state's cops couldn't arrest them in the second state, and the second state'a cops couldn't arrest them for a crime that happened in another state. Enter the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The government creates them and a list of certain crimes that are "federal crimes," meaning the FBI can get you for them no matter where in the country you are. They can also investigate these crimes in any state, and track them state to state. This also means people can report them state to state.
Now, I imagine that child pornography/sex with minors (statutory rape)/soliciting sexual acts with minors/ whatever this guy's doing is a federal crime. (I don't know if rating underage girls in their underwear is classified as child porn, but it sounds dangerously close and super illegal). Because of the Internet, these pictures are probably coming in from multiple states. It also means that the people who want to report him are in multiple states.
Now, if he's in LA, calling the normal cops in New York won't help. However, this could be (and probably is) a federal crime, so this will be under the FBI's jurisdiction. Because the FBI works on the federal level, they have much more reach and power than the local cops.
Edit: a word

There might have been, I'm not sure. I just know that the FBI was created because of a major issue with state border jumping. Several years ago, an FBI agent was at "career day" when I was somewhere between sixth to eighth grade, where he told us that. My sister is actually good friends with the FBI agent's kids, so we know him and his family well.

Oh hey! I know this answer! First hand experience. It's because the FBI is the one that handles child porn cases(in this case, grooming underage women to send him pics in their underwear or for a "rate" of attractiveness is definitely in the realm of CP). Normal law enforcement will defer to the FBI, or Interpol if it's being done out of country. Kind of on the same par as how the Secret Service handles major financial crime, even though normal LE can initiate an investigation. They're still required to notify the federal agency.

I assume that people do but it goes nowhere as I get the impression that it is borderline legal sort of thing. I don't know specifically what is considered child porn or not but I assume that scantly clad teenage girls isn't the same in the eyes of the law as naked teenage girls. And "rating them on their attractiveness" isn't quite saying that your implying anything sexual, even though it more or less is.

That guy is retarded if I'm thinking of the same person. As someone in the Air Force he bashes the whole branch and the military because they yelled at him during BASIC TRAINING! Literally the part of joining the military the military. Where they're supposed to make you grow thick skin and grow up.
Also he signed up for SERE a survival expert career in the Air Force used to trained others how to survive in the wild and one of the final tests was to kill a rabbit and eat it for food. He thought that was downright cruel to kill an animal and eat it.. even though he would have to teach others how to do the same properly so they could survive in the wild and not die.

Ironically, he killed a turtle due to putting it under a plastic tote...outside...in the dead of summer. Then, he started ranting about "how meat is murder" when people called him out about it. Of course, he changed the story, claiming that the turtle died of stress not asphyxiation and heat stroke. And that he "didn't know" you aren't supposed to put turtles underneath totes without breathing holes...in his twentys.
Like dude, just eat a cheeseburger and shut up.

The slightest research could tell you what your job was. Hell even recruiters will always boast up special operations jobs like SERE. He also said he knew that they would be survival experts but he didn't think survival meant running away from captors and evading and eating weird things to live

He's also the guy who has a video about his time in the air force. And the whole thing is literally him botching about how much bullshit basic training was. The air force has the easiest basic out of any other branch and he didn't make it past 5th week then proceeds to act like he's a jaded vet like he actually did something with his life.

Watched Blaire whites vid on that and you 2 seem to be saying the same thing. Keep in mind I typically agree with her and think Onision is a cunt due to his recent relationship ship bullshit, but you and blaire got it wrong.
Most of the guy's demo is shockingly women between 20-35 and the threads in which girls are rated aren't threads started by him. The users on his site start the threads and ask for him to rate them, on occasion he does which is weird.
I don't remember exactly, but on the thread that got exposed it's a user just being self conscious about their weight and him telling them they look fine and have nothing to be ashamed of.
He made a video on it which is probably bias, but it sure as hell seems to be more factual than what blaire and you are saying. Again, I don't like the guy, he's a little bitch and a cunt.

Interesting, I personally havent looked a whole lot into it. I went off of a few news sites, a few vids on youtube, and hearsay on Reddit. So my information probably has a few things wrong. There were some underage girls among it though. He posted on of the girls pics in a video, and the girls older sister reported him for distributing a pic of her younger sister in her underwear. So it may not be all of them, but there are a few among them.

I remember being subscribed to him years ago back when he was still with his first wife. His videos were pretty funny despite being the whole "lol I'm so random" type videos. But then he had what seemed like a messy divorce, and got some really young obnoxious girlfriend. He began using her to try and gain views through really annoying shit, and it all sort of became disgusting to watch.

Its not so much that but everything thrown together. He has dated multiple girls underage, and proceeded to dump them once they got to around 20. He is generally creepy with his fanbase, and its just odd.
If his channel was based around positive self image, or some kind of body based topic, then it wouldnt be as creepy. Its the fact that it is so out of line from his typical content and how it is based mostly around young teens that makes it creepy.

Onision had an ex wife, and I remember he would post videos of her while she was in distress and he wouldn't do anything to help her, but sits there video taping her. He later posts a video, claiming that it was all a prank, but even so that's really messed up. Onision has a long, long history of being an asshole. He targets other Youtubers as well, such as Mr Repzion, Emma Blackberry, and Pewdiepie, etc.

I've only seen his video about the Air Force and how cruel they were to him. If you know anything about service in the Air Force you know that everything he was bitching about is common place and for a reason. He even complained about how anal they were about hair regs. If you can't keep a professional haircut, maybe you shouldn't be in the fucking military.

Well the FBI does rub half the CP sites out there and have made upgrades to the sites. Their methods regarding this kind of thing are quite questionable. For comparison when a human trafficking ring or drug ring are cracked they take it down as the head honchos are the ones they are after. For whatever reason with CP they feel it's worth it to keep the site up to catch what are the equivalent of basic drug users.
All that aside I had no idea he was so creepy. I've watched some of his videos but I can't remember ever seeing one where he critics young girls bodies, unless those videos are only on his blog.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 18:15:44 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Not vids, they are posts on his site. Last time I checked you cant see the photos he is commenting on unless you are a member, so I cant tell what they are. Based off of what others have said, that is what it is. And the few that you can see. Dude is a creep.
And on the FBI thing, they arent producing it. As horrible as this may sound, that stuff is already out there on the internet. If the FBI isnt hosting it on a site, there is another Pedophile site that is. If it is always going to be there, might as well use it to capture some of them in the process. Its not like those images and videos can be removed from the web. Once its there, it is there permanently in some way shape or form.
Bensemus ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:45:23 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
But you miss my comparison to other illegal operations. They bust human trafficking, drug, weapon, everything except these CP sites. They didn't leave the Silk Road up to keep catching people. Beside the ones they are catching are the consumers, not the producers. It's never that productive to go after individuals as they have no control over the material. Adding to they aren't just keeping the sites up or running ~half of them they are upgrading them too to run better. It makes no sense.

Pretty sure his name is Brad Holmes, more of a Facebook video guy rather than YouTube. He also uploads on one called "Brad's Dad" or something similar. Some are funny but seems really scripted or his girlfriend pretends to be thick as fuck.

If it's the guy I'm thinking of, he's a huge dick to his girlfriend. The last video I saw, she had thrown out his FIFA game because he wasn't helping with chores and was flat out ignoring her to play video games all day. So he decides to take her make up bag and destroy everything in it and write 'BITCH' in lipstick on their bathroom mirror. Now, I'm not saying she's an angel, but all of that make up cost way more than his FIFA game. If it really upset him so much that she destroyed his game, he should've just asked her to shell out the $60 or so to replace it rather than destroy literally hundreds of dollars worth of her things and, to top it off, call her a bitch. My boyfriend and I joke around a lot and wrestle and cuss each other out as a joke, but their relationship is just borderline abuse.

You realize this is completely fake and that they're making a ton of money with it? Can't believe so many people feel bad for the girl and don't realize that both of them are doing it for money.
The amount of money wasted in that video is nothing to them and they're acting.

First of all, that shit is obviously fake.
Secondly, she destroyed his shit and he responded in kind, and you think that makes him a dick? Why do so many women always side with the woman in any man vs woman situation? It's gross.

Alright, reverse the situation. Say he tossed out a $60 makeup set of hers because she was neglecting stuff, and she reacted by destroying hundreds of dollars of his stuff then wrote bastard on the tv
First action is still a dick move, but the reaction is way over the top and inexcuseable reguardless

Yeah, I'm guessing they don't realize how expensive makeup is, let alone anything beyond, like, walmart or target level prices.
An 'affordable' setup of foundation, blush, mascara, eyeliner, lipstick, color corrector, and a color balm can run you $70~, and if you start getting pricey, that shit can easily jump over $200. For ONE set of products. A PS4 is $250. I mean, everything in my go-to makeup bag (not my WHOLE makeup bag, my overnight with maybe a dozen items including brushes) is about $250.
His reaction, even faked, is waaaaaay over the top.
MakeItAllGreatAgain ยท -2 points ยท Posted at 07:43:03 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
First of all, you're just taking this persons perception of what it costs as a fact. This person is clearly a biased moron. Did you even read her comment?
She justifies destroying his game, then says the way he should have responded was by asking her to pay for it. Basically, he's just supposed to accept this behavior and politely ask her to pay for the thing she broke. Anything more than that and he's the asshole. Then she says:
Like this is some big crime. Guess what, if you destroy your partner's belongings, you are a bitch.
If someone spits in your face and you punch them in response, I wouldn't consider you the dick. And you know what, neither would anyone else if both people were men.
Edit: Lol, clicked on your name, see you moderate something called BardicTale. Who would have guessed you're a neckbeard?
Icalasari ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 07:49:17 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
No, but I would consider them a dick if they kept punching or even started kicking them. Again, first action is a dick more and is about more than just the monetary loss, but also a violation of their own property. But it doesn't justify a massive escalation that most normal people should have stopped before they managed to get to that stage. Honestly, I'd even see a, "What the fuck?" <insert yelling here> "Then maybe mention it instead of destroying my stuff, fuckhead!" as being possibly warranted
MakeItAllGreatAgain ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 08:00:41 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Anyone who views that situation and doesn't at the very least say they are both dicks, is a very unreasonable person.
She said "she's no angel". It's like she thinks that behavior is within the realm of normal. And even makes a big deal out of him calling her a bitch. And this isn't an isolated thing, it happens all the time.
Women will side with other women more often than not. Men will also side with women more often than not in a man vs woman situation. Not only is it a shitty thing that is near universal in the west, but it's made worse by the stalwart denial of it even existing as a concept.

Plenty of people are in abusive relationships where absolutely heinous things are done to them. They either are brainwashed by the abuser or trapped in some other way like financially, afraid of what would happen if they leave and a combination of those factors. Lots of "normal people" are abused, but it's usually not put on the internet for attention which could actually drive the victim into a further state of denial if there are "fans" of this weirdo who are reacting positively

Except it's not. It's not the best cheese at all. Provolone is nothing but the cheese haters cheese. There's no enthusiasm there, no passion. Provolone is what children ask for when they don't know what to get so the round one is fine. As someone with 50 years of experience in the cheese industry I find it frankly insulting that you would think provolone is the best cheese. This exeprience uniquely qualifies my to maliciously attack you for your cheese preference. The only way I could figure that you would like provolone more than say, mozzarella or gouda, is that you were a child when you aquired your taste for it and have only regressed into this childlike state for a cheese which, frankly, sucks. I feel sorry for you and anyone you come in contact with. May God have mercy on your provolone loving soul.

Excuse me? Any fool would know that the best cheese is a toss up between either cheddar or blue. I noticed you skirted around the issue of what cheese is in fact the best, so I shall address it for you. Blue cheese reigns supreme in terms of simple taste, as it can work well as an addition to a main meal or appatiser. Perhaps you can even put it in a salad, if you feel so inclined. But nothing can beat the pure jack-of-all-trades that is cheddar. It serves to inhance any meal, and can be put in just about anything. Pizza? Of course. Grilled chees? Nothing else is acceptable. On a cheeseburger? Well, obviously. In summary, you clearly are lacking quite a few important facts on which cheeses are superior.

They've created actual characters on who does the ten lists, do reactions, talk about random things in wrestling, and have an actual wrestling promotion called WCPW which tends to get some of the biggest non-WWE names to do gigs.

I like WahtCulture too, although I don't watch their videos unless I have nothing better to do and it's likely they'll cover something I like.
Cinefix, on the other hand, is so much better. Even with all the repeated movies, they're covering those movies from different angles. The lists are still really shallow, but deeper than the other ones we're all mentioning.

Thank you for subscribing to Cheese Facts, your source for super 'cheesy' facts about cheese!
There is no exact information regarding the origin of cheese, archaeological studies have shown the origin of cheese dates as far back as 6000 BC. Studies also show that during that era cheese was made from cowโs milk and goats in Mesopotamia.

Hell I saw a top 10 channel recently that must have been churning them out constantly b/c they used a robot voice-over to do the talking as well as having several hundred videos. I can only imagine they just hastily tossed together vids with a tid bit of script to go with it and pumped it out while producing others in the process. Couldn't have much overhead at all beyond finding the list of top products or items google generates upon a cursory search.

Thanks for corroborating that there are people who do this. It seemed like there might be a neat programming solution to do it. My hats off to anybody who took the time. The video sucked, but still a neat project in any regard. I for one welcome or new software & soon to be robot overlords.
For that matter I can only imagine this is also how FailArmy, and the hundreds of other clones, make their videos. Scrape funny videos and submissions. Categorize them with tags. Pull up common tags & string together in videos. Rinse and repeat for various video subjects.

You don't like Looper? I definitely don't feel that way about their videos, in fact it seems like most of them just end with "x person has a family/focus on other projects". They get into some stuff about the industry and analyze the actor as a brand too, so while the reason may be that directors don't want to cast them, the reasoning is always different.

I think there can be a place for some top 10s, like where you might not have much knowledge on the topic, and it goes over things so that you're more informed. Like, I saw a documentary about Heaven's Gate (suicide cult) and that had a related video 10 dark documentaries, that I had not known before.
Another that I remember watching was something like "Most important punk bands", so if you're getting into punk, you find out the ones that a lot of others have enjoyed.
Obviously, all this could be done with a couple google searches or looking up on Wikipedia, but whatever.

I find WatchMojo's top tens (on movies, although I've seen there are others) rather practical to find movies that have a certain aspect to them, or just maybe a group of movies that I hadn't known yet. I think I found The Hunt for Red October (Movies about/ on a submarine) and Minority Report (Sci-fi movies) through their top ten Lists. They are of course not quite impervious to bias and sometimes give of the impression that their basing the ranking on how they think the audience might rank them, so I just treat the videos as "10 movies that might be worth watching".

a lot of them get repeated with different names and the ordering is just a little different with one or 2 additional entries, list 25 is the worst for it.

There's a Spanish YouTuber called DrossRotzank who is constantly churning out these "Top 7 Most Disturbing X". And they're pretty shit, they're almost always stolen from reddit, or things that aren't really all that spooky but he plays it up to make it look like the scariest shit since Blair Witch.

Top 10 Wines to Butt Chug:
Number 10: I'll say it again. If the taste is heinous, shove it up your anus! you'll get drunk better, faster, stronger.
Number 9: That's wine and dine! A Chardonnay and a fish fillet, blend it up, dinner and a drink, now that won't stink.
Number 8: It must be fate. A Zinfandel for this infidel make me think, don't ask, do tell. I stick a funnel in my butt.
Number 7 is Levant. That's right, I soak a full body bread in a Jewish rye bread, and this ass, gets fed. Aka, you freeze the loaf and chisel off little suppositories that you stick inside your ass all night like little Tic-Tacs.
Jake: Is that what you do with Tic-Tacs?
Number 6: It's for dicks! Take a Capri-Sun straw and stick it in your urethra. With a reverse piss, you can't miss.
Number 5: P. nomwar? More like p. yes. - Lar.
Number 4: One Tequila, two Tequila, three Tequila, sore. Ow, if your anus ain't bruised all night, then you ain't funnelin' right.
Number 3: You and me. Sippin' on some English tea. (We're sipping it through our assholes.)
Number 2: How 'bout some Yoo-hoo where you poo-poo. That's right, it's already wet and brown downtown, mamma mia, that's some diarrhea!
Number 1: Have some fun in the sun, hun. Bring your ass to the beach, and flop it down like a leech. Put your knees by your ears, but don't feed your butt beers. Not Vodka nor Gin, no those can't go in. Spread your butt cheeks wide, stick that funnel inside, now wait for the tide you're going for a ride. You're a full grown guy, with a tight brown eye, so make sure your lips are sealed, and your rectum is peeled. Which alcohol is best, for your asshole that stretch? Not red nor white, nor Captain Morgan's Delight, no. What will save the day? Oh you don't say? it's: drum roll please.

Little bit of nerd rage here but there was a top ten list of most important start wars battles and they put the battle of yavin below a bunch of shit from the clone wars.
Both the most iconic battle and first major defeat of the Empire, and one that spawned way more open rebellion, is less important than fucking skirmishes?

Top 10 Anime Chefs
Mirrormn ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 04:57:12 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Top 10 lists are almost always entirely bullshit. They're a terrible way to format opinion pieces even when they're taken seriously (terrible for substantive understanding and discussion, not terrible for grabbing views), but very rarely are they taken seriously anymore anyway. When was the last time you saw a Top 10 list that explained its ranking criteria beforehand, or was written by someone with an actual background of knowledge in the topic? Probably a very long time, because Top 10 lists aren't even about conveying a legitimate opinion anymore. As practiced by the modern Internet, they are a tool solely designed to present shallowly controversial opinions to generate discussion and views. And when you think about it, "controversial" in this context amounts to little more than "useless". Top 10 lists themselves have very little value other than to present the opinions of the author, so if the author is consciously manipulating their "opinion" in order to generate "controversy", what is even the point anymore? You're not getting any real information, and you're not learning what the author thinks either! For outlets that have perfected the art of writing clickbait Top 10 lists, it's just bullshit wrapped in bullshit for the sake of bullshit. I hate Top 10 lists.
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 05:09:37 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think Steve and Larson are okay because they don't take themselves seriously and constantly say things like, "you know what this proves Larson?" "What's that Steve?" "We're running out of ideas!" Stuff like that (paraphrased). Snake lady tiddies, you are the breast!

A YouTuber called LEMMiNO makes top 10 videos on certain topics like space or a certain video game and his video concepts are pretty much as basic as you can get, but he executes this "Top 10" YouTube style so well. He actually puts passion into the videos and it feels like I'm watching a college presentation rather than a shady cash grab produced by some degenerate because he goes very in depth into what he talks about. It's very easy to tell that he does proper research and is really into what he makes which is not there in most other "Top 10" YouTube channels.

AllTime10s is a pretty good channel if you're into list videos. They don't do top tens, just lists of 10. Some of their videos in the last year or so have gotten a little clickbaity, but they have a lot of weird little things you wouldn't normally think about. I remember one that was 10 names that are legally banned somewhere in the world. And they cite all their information, which is pretty neat.

As someone who writes for a lot of Top10 or list style channels, I am also amazed by how awful some of them are. I sympathise that it's hard to be original but the amount of times you see something either utterly pointless or heroically unoriginal, it sometimes feels that some channels only have the ability to regurgitate stuff they've seen elsewhere on youtube, rather than going outside it for information

I saw that video and I didn't think it was too distasteful, he seemed to just be talking about different youtubers that existed, what their legacy was and how they came to pass. If he did rank them I would think that would be in poor taste but I don't think talking about them and their content is inherently bad. These people did choose to make their life somewhat public and would probably want to be remembered. I don't see how it's that much different than say, talking about David Bowie's or Carrie Fisher's works and legacy.

Your guess is as good as mine. I'm not all that phased by gore, and the thumbnails are extreme even for me. They have a lot of gory pictures in the actual videos, too, so I often just listen to them while I browse other sites.
Squiddy_face ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:03:32 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I can't even know what I'm looking at the pictures. One thumbnail makes me wonder if it's an animal or skin infection and I really don't want a closer look. Haven't seen all of them but do they post people getting their heads blown off, not even in war context?
Throne-Eins ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:53:36 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
No, I've never seen anything that extreme. Some will show pictures of bodies or crime scenes, but they're heavily pixelated so you don't even see anything. Showing an actual killing will get your video removed from Youtube. You have to go to LiveLeak for that.

I feel like I am in the minority of enjoying creepy stories but I don't want to see creepy images or get jump scared. Like I could enjoy creepy pasta but I don't want to see all the creepy and often shocking images it usually entails. Even an unexpected picture of Jeff these days will make me spook out of my chair a bit if I don't know what I am running into.
I liked ReignbotHorror for a while for her lost media and online urban legends videos (she's a good narrator and talks about interesting stuff even if you gotta take it with a grain of salt) but I had a playlist of her stuff going while I cleaned one day and saw a super creepy horrifying-by-my-standards image out the corner of my eye and was too much of a pussy and had to run to turn it off. I like NightMind a lot for the same reasons and he seems to use random imagery less, but can still play the occasional spooky clip (but he usually gives context and I can skip the segment containing it if I don't feel like watching the whole thing). Maybe I just need to find podcasts about spooky things to scratch that itch because spooky/gory clips and pics at a certain level become too much for me. I'm not even gonna look up that YouTuber you're talking about. While I am sure his content is interesting, I'll pass thanks.

It's really tasteless to "rank" deaths, like some deaths are better than others. I'd like to attribute this to the guy who made the video not knowing what he was saying and doing by making a "Top 10 Deaths of Anything" video, since Top 10 videos are still popular, but I don't really know him so I couldn't say myself.

There's this one channel I can't remember the name of but it does top 10 lists involving movie trivia. Like "top 10 movie scenes that weren't part of the script but made the final cut"
Then the person talking describes the scene except they never actually play the scene for the viewer to see they just play other random clips of the movie in the background. That's just one example but they do it on all of their videos and its fucking ridiculous

There are some 'Top X things etc' channels that really do their research and provide genuinely interesting, factually accurate content. Then there's people like this.
EDIT: Some of my favourites are TatsTopVideos (Does a lot of horror based content, i.e. 'Top 45 scariest SCP's', 'Top 30 most disturbing bosses in video games' etc.
Been getting into GameRanx's videos more recently too, they do some interesting stuff over on their channel also.

Honestly, there's only one Top anything channel I like, and that's Top5s. He at least puts the time, research, and skepticism in his videos, since he generally deals with the paranormal, supernatural, cryptids, and folklore. They're really interesting, and started doing short documentaries on specific topics. He's definitely a quality "Top" channel.

people are shitty sometimes (well, a lot of the time) and they focus on people who are different. at some point in her life she's going to get shit for a name she had no control over, and that sucks.

Oh please. I got named Cyra after a romance novel heroine (a middle eastern name in my very white family) and I wasn't made fun of any more often than my normal named peers like Stephanie and Olivia. The dickhead kids make fun of whoever they want regardless of name.
paletooth ยท 57 points ยท Posted at 01:00:50 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Cyra is not on the same level as Symphony Pearl, though. it's an atypical name, but not as ridiculously abnormal.
i agree with you though - people are going to pick on other people regardless of name, but if your name is excessively strange it just gives them another avenue. and that sucks. it shouldn't work that way, but it does.
speaking as someone with an abnormal (also middle eastern) last name that no one can figure out how to pronounce correctly. i got hassled for it. i would've been hassled anyway, but it was just another aspect of me to pick at.
people suck, is all. i'm not sure how old Symphony is but i hope she learns, or has learned, to take pride in her name.

You can tell from the new videos to the old. From the old videos I watched of her, she was a total bitch...she didn't laugh at any of his jokes, rolled her eyes half the time...while Kristine laughs every time He farts, and this video pretty much sums up their friendship https://youtu.be/xa8WdD9lNU8 .

Also didn't he take piss out of the toilet? Would the pee even still be potent enough for a good reading, because I have had friends that had a negative test while they were pregnant purely because they tested at night and not in the morning when their hCG levels were higher.

I just rewatched the video and he did just that. He used an eyedropper which is better than just scooping up a handful of piss like I was expecting. But still. If my husband told me he played around in my piss and took a pregnancy test 'for' me I don't think I would be too pleased.

I just think it was pretty shit to do that and put it straight on YouTube too. I can't remember but I'm fairly certain it was uploaded pretty much as soon as he shot it and edited it, but you're supposed to wait til 12 weeks before announcing a pregnancy.

That is when it is most likely to miscarriage, so waiting is just sort of a safety net in case the pregnancy falls through. I would imagine it would be heartbreaking to have people asking about 'the baby' four months after the fact because they told everyone after only six weeks.

I have a few friends who announced early and a friend who lost her baby and although she said it was the most awful thing having to explain, she preferred that people knew because it meant she wasn't having to go through her grief alone and isolated. It's all subjective though really, though I personally would probably only tell my mum that early.

Fun fact: hCG levels aren't higher in the morning, urine just tends to be more concentrated because it's typically been 7-8 hours since last peeing. Regardless if she was actually pregnant, it probably would have been detectable at any time of day because hCG levels are typically high enough by the time a woman misses her period that using first morning urine to test doesn't matter.

I mean it kinda makes sense though. You're more likely to get a violent reaction from a black person in a low-income area than from like a soccer mom or even another black person or whoever in a middle-class area.

You've obviously never lived in the burbs and gone to little league games, parents from upper class and of all races will straight out brawl with one another.
Hell watch real housewives of ANYWHERE, these people are mostly white and act like animals so it's not a race thing. You're making it a race thing because you're ignorant to the fact that every human being is capable of rage, anger, and violence.
I know plenty of people in the "hood" who aren't violent and would rather just go about their day than to be accosted by idiots pulling pranks based on racial prejudices.
Now if you wanted to make an educated guess as to why people in the "hood" are more violent then you should really think about the factors that put people in the "hood", poverty for example.

Even if that's true, that's no excuse to go provoking (or paying actors) into being violent to push a narrative because you're going around calling the the n word for shits and giggles on youtube. Like 95% of these are fake anyway. Black people are like everyone else. Some people will lash out, but most will see what you're tryibg to do and ignore you or tell you to fuck off.

Black people on an individual level are exactly like everyone else. But on a statistical level, no, they're not. What this means is that if you take any one random black person and any one random white person, you're more likely to end up with a violent criminal as the black person than as the white person.

That's why it's racist imo. These prank channels are trying to make it seem like black people are inherently violent when that's not true. A vast majority of the comments are extremely racist so they know exactly what they're doing. One of them (joeysalads) even admitted it on h3h3's channel.

There's this one guy called Generikb who does gaming videos and vlogs, and I'm not even exaggerating, every single video of his has a title in all caps and either multiple exclamation points or exclamation points mixed with question marks. It annoyed me for a while when I was subscribed to him, but I remembered thinking to myself, "It's not that big of a deal, it's still really good content. Try and ignore it." I eventually unsubscribed because he stopped playing games I was interested in watching.

If you make criticism of copyrighted work, or you transform the work into something that has a different purpose than the original, it is fair use. Using a copyrighted work as a part of yours without making criticism or changing the meaning or purpose is not.
So using bits of a movie to make a movie review, showing a video clip to criticize it's author, or writing a parody of a song is fair use. Using a bit of a movie or song as an opening shot for your work which does not make criticism, isn't.

I was making a parody of the intro. It was 5 or 10 seconds of the actual intro followed by our rendition of the intro.

They're not under fair use at all. The main reason they don't go down is the big studios (movies or whatever) don't care about views on their own channels or ad revenue, they're just happy for exposure, and the small guys that get their content stolen usually don't know enough about anything to know how to fight it.

Because the studios issued tons of takedown notices, and sued google so much that they finally agreed to a Content ID system which proactively auto-flags content from those studios. It's a cost saving measure for YouTube.
Some indie vlogger isn't part of that system, and doesn't have the money for a protracted legal battle.

To be fair. It is under fair use. I mean, it's shitty and just plain lazy, but it is under fair use. It's stretched beyond reason, but it does qualify, unfortunately. At least the examples I've seen.
Personally, I'm okay with ass hats mooching off of the policy if it means people who make legitimate content are protected. I just make sure to avoid them at all costs.
Hadger ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:44:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's pretty difficult to argue that reaction videos are protected under fair use. One consideration of fair use is how much of the content is used.
So, if I take bits and pieces of a movie and show myself laughing at it and commenting on it, that's protected under fair use.
But if I upload an entire movie to YouTube, even if I have my face in the corner and react to it, that's copyright infringement. Companies probably won't do anything about it if I counterclaim, but it's copyright infringement.
IANAL.

It really depends on what they're adding to the video they're watching. Like, streaming video games is 95% about watching someone's reaction to playing that game, they're not making insightful comments about the game or anything.
If no one would watch your reaction video becuase the video itself is watermarked, are you actually doing anything? Do people actually value your reactions to something, or are they there for your commentary, or are you making this a transformative work somehow? Or are you just reuploading a niche video and not citing the source?

(I'm not sure if I misunderstood your comment, but) There are maaany reasons why I think gaming commentary videos are great.
Sometimes people can't afford to buy a game or some games are Playstation/Xbox exclusive (not available on PC).
Some games are difficult (for example, puzzle games) so a walkthrough helps if you get stuck. Or you can get better at a game by watching people who are good at it and copying their strategy.
Some games have multiple endings so it's interesting to see what decisions other people would make and why.

This may be unpopular here but I will defend reaction videos.
For decades, actors have been told by acting coaches or directors or whoever that "acting is reacting". They need to find something external and develop a natural response to it.
Reacting is the core of so much of our greatest entertainment. In Jurassic Park, 90% of the magic comes from actors faces reacting to something.
To cut to the chase, reaction videos on youtube may look completely stupid and pointless but they're successful for a reason. They tap into the essence of acting theory and are compelling to those that enjoy those types of reactions.
It may be sad, but there's a deceptively thin line between some idiot jumping and screaming playing a horror game and the crew of the Nostromo screaming when the alien chestburster ruins dinner.

Yeah, this always gets to me.
I don't want to be the content police, but there are already places where you can share your opinions on videos you've watched. It's called the comment section.
It just feels so cheap to host an entire video of you just staring at the screen and saying nothing- bringing nothing interesting or worthwhile to the video at all- and just using the video as a redirection of traffic to your own channel.

aaronwhines ยท 14 points ยท Posted at 04:38:56 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
h3h3's reaction videos are more like "response" videos; they use another video or trend as inspiration and actually create notable content that largely stands on its own or adds something valuable. This kind of thing seems fine in my book.
It's the type of thing I've started taking to calling "Let's Watches" that get annoying. Like, they're just watching the video and reacting to the video exactly as the video's creators intended. I guess it helps people who have trouble forming their own opinions or want to feel like they have friends.

I'm fine with Renegades React, they at least try to add something to the video. At least half of my fun from watching is "well, I know how I'll react to this video, let's see these guys/gals talk about it and react in the moment to it" and they're one group which doesn't have difficulty reacting to things during the videos.

Yes it depends, some people bring a unique point of view to videos while others it's low effort shit and just fake laugh and say "HAha! Thanks for watching being sure to like and subscribe and leave a comment about what you want me to watch next." No personality, no commentary, no jokes, nothing!! I have no idea how some of these people became popular.

Most people watch reaction vids because it's an easy way to watch things usually hit by copyright bots.
Go look at a reaction youtubers vid and while they 'reacting' to a marvel trailer has so many views, then 'reacting' to a new Dragonball Super episode will be x100 times more.
They generally fall into 1 of 2 categories: 1) the lazy ones that just sit there barely emoting 2) the less lazy ones who go OTT with the reacting and gullible viewers thing it's 'personality' to be shrieking like a loon at a marvel trailer.

I personally enjoy watching some reaction videos to pivotal moments in shows I enjoy, and similar things. Some reaction youtubers make decent content of watching and sharing thoughts and reactions, Blind Wave and SithFurion for example.

If you want to add commentary, insightful dialogue, or something substantial that adds more content... Then that's fair. But if it's just you nodding and saying "alright, I feel this" then you're just stealing content and for some reason people will which it.

Honestly, the ones I like are the ones that already assume you have seen it, and are making their reaction AFTER they have seen the video as well. It makes for such a better video, because the youtuber is actually attentive to the audience and discussing it, instead of just staring at their computer screen, making comments at it, while the whole video plays out in a thumbnail at the bottom corner.

Well it depends on how they do it. If they're contributing relevant interesting commentary I think it gets a pass. For instance I watched a video of Jeff Gerstman from Giant Bomb talking over a Nintendo press conference recently and was quite entertained. Being a veteran of the of video game press I think his commentary added a lot to the video.

I think it heavily depends on the content of the reaction videos. When they began taking off some big YouTubers really came down hard on a lot of them for good reason (See the entire iDubbbz Vs Jonx debacle). Those who literally sit and 'react' to top vine videos and try not to laugh challenges constantly, maintaining a perfect expressionless gaze into nothingness really don't deserve any kinda support they receive.
On the other hand there are reaction channels out there that really put some effort into their content, Blind Wave Productions for example react to all sorts of different TV shows and trailers, complete with extensive speculation and discussion post-reaction, not to mention great fan interaction. These guys have become so respected amongst their fanbase that a bunch of their fans banded together to get them a $3000+ camera for both their reactions and their own original content that they produce on the side.
It's real important to be able to differentiate those who really put the effort in, and those who jump on the bandwagon and turn on their potato webcam to record their LIVE IMPRESSIONS OF TRY NOT TO SEMI-SMIRK CHALLENGE (SUPER HARD, LIKE TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE GIVE UP NOW EDITION)

Also faking a reaction.
IIRC "reaction videos" became super popular in 2013 after the Red Wedding episode of Game of Thrones, because lots of book-readers surreptitiously recorded their friends and family watching the episode. In those cases I found them mildly amusing because the reactions were genuine. I have no idea why anyone finds it worth watching someone who knows that they're on camera proceed to (very badly) act surprised.

It could be done as actual content if you know. They edited out parts where they don't say anything and just talk slightly with the video on pause at the point they want to talk or laugh. But of course why do all that work when you could upload the entire thing all at once with absolutely 0 editing done and get more money for it.

Very true, I'm still not a big fan of those kinds of videos, but at least with H3H3 and idubbbz you can tell put a lot of effort into making them entertaining. They also sometimes implement skits and stuff into the videos, opposed to just recording yourself laughing or cringing.

I don't know if it's pathetic or just incredibly lazy, but the reaction videos where they record themselves watching a popular video and then reupload it with their facecam in the corner.

JREKML is a good one tho. However its worse when non kpop fans react to kpop as a whole (which is impossible from one BTS MV and one EXO MV) and the Youtubers React To Kpop videos were bad enough (they were all extremely ignorant and racist) but then other youtubers started do it (some I even watch like Ryan Minajj and Shane Dawson) and its just some of the most obnoxious things ever. Like I thought I would like these to see what non kpop fans think but its just the most ignorant and fakest shit ever
JonSnowsBedwarmer ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 09:14:54 on February 17, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I like seeing non-kpop fans react because they get to experience something new.
But kpop fans usually suggest songs or videos that non-kpop fans would probably not like.
I think its best to start out with kpop that sounds alot like western pop stuff then slowly move into more unique or unusual concepts.
People just suggest the most popular stuff and sometimes, those concepts wouldn't work with people who aren't familiar with kpop already.

I agree with you like if I were to show someone kpop I would give a variety of like maybe Jay Park, 2PM, SHINee, Seventeen, ASTRO, INFINITE, MONSTAX, GFRIEND etc and some classics like Mirotic, The Chaser, I Am The Best, I Got A Boy etc and even some lesser known groups like Cross Gene, TOPPDOGG, Teen Top, Boyfriend, B.A.P etc. Like I absolutely love EXO, BTS and GOT7 but it seems that is who kpop fans always suggest to non kpop fans and it gets repetitive very fast. I don't know how many people I saw suggesting to Ryan and Shane to watch Blood, Sweat and Tears but it was a shit ton. And the same with Monster or Just Right like come on there are so much MVs/songs out there!

Indeed.
If they really react like that, they need some medication or mental care.
Seriously, if you jump amd scream like slaughtered pigs when you see some little thing on the video = stupid ass shit.
I would not scream even if I would win millions, I just dont believe that anyone reacts like that unless acting.
I once won 3500โฌ(lot to me) and my reaction: no reaction.
If I would make the same videos, this would be my face: :I for 90% of th video and maybe few :)

Look, if I was going to get... let's say $500 to do it in front of drunk friends as a dare I would, just not on camera. People do dumb gross shit all the time for fun when it's private. Why you'd ever record that for the mass public to see forever, for so little monetary gain, is the weird part.

Onision. The list is endless. Most recently, making multiple videos about Eugenia Cooney telling people to unsubscribe from her until she gains weight. Like ruining her career will magically cure a mental disorder she may or may not have. She is dangerously thin, but that was not the way to try and help her. It was more like he used her name for views, faking compassion, especially as he made a video making fun of anorexics.

And more recently, he was making vids about some girl he was in some sort of relationship with who's only like 20 while he's in his early 30's. And he made vids on her because she smoked weed, and that broke some sort of relationship contract that he pushed on her, and she leaked text messages from him saying that if she wanted to make it up to him, she wouldn't see her family and she would let him chain her up in his basement naked or some crazy shit like that.

She didn't just smoke weed, she smoked weed states away, not even close to their property, and only did it once with her friends.
He referred to her family as "drug addicts" rather than her actual family, and wound up releasing personal, private information about her.

Eugenia is glorifying her unhealthy weight. She isn't discouraging it and isn't seeing it as a problem, thus encouraging vulnerable teens to starve themselves. I saw a comment on one of her recent videos from a little girl and Eugenia actually responded to her. The convo went like this:
Girl: "Your weight is beautiful! I'm gonna look like you one day" (100+ likes)
Eugenia responded with "Thanks:)"
I'm sorry but thats not ok. Onision is telling people to unsubscribe to her because she's affecting other people whether she realises it or not.

Onision is making fun of people with eating disorders and making light of a crippling mental disease though. is what eugenia is doing okay? no, not at all; I agree that some action should be taken because she probably does negatively affect a lot of people.
but onision just straight up fucking invalidates and mocks people with eating disorders. he's just straight up spreading misinformation and I think it's pretty fucked up.
ExcitableQuagsire ยท 55 points ยท Posted at 03:38:27 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
No, Onision is telling people to unsubscribe from her because he wants attention and, more importantly, those precious views. Anorexia is not okay. Unsubscribing from a person who suffers from it is not going to fix it.
[deleted] ยท -4 points ยท Posted at 03:45:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
you could argue that Onision has made the mass majority of Eugenia videos, but don't forget that many other youtubers have made videos about her, too.
people aren't disliking the shit out of her videos because some big youtuber told them too, they're doing it because she's glorifying her weight. do you think people would be doing this if she wasn't unhealthy?
ExcitableQuagsire ยท 36 points ยท Posted at 03:56:02 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Disliking her videos and unsubscribing from her is not going to fix anything. She needs professional help. Internet mobs do not equal weeks of comprehensive therapy with an expert. And they wouldn't encourage her to get any, either. You know what's going to help? Actual fucking help and support.
DrugSnuggler ยท 26 points ยท Posted at 04:03:00 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I agree that a) Onision is awful, and b) she personally needs help but that's something either she or her family for her are going to have to seek in private. No one on the internet is going to be able to supply that.
But what FakeTan is saying is that in the meantime it's best to minimize her effect on other impressionable people. If she retains her level of popularity more and more susceptible people can see her weight, want to achieve it, and develop her same issue. Needs of the many.

Creating a "straw"? I don't think yall' get it. Have you watched Greg's videos on Eugenia, or did you read the title and come sulk on reddit? Whether you like him or not, he had really good points.
If you were anorexic and a little girl told you that she wanted to look like you and that your body weight was beautiful, what would you say to them?
You're either taking the piss or you just don't like Gregory, because it's obvious that Eugenia is encouraging her behaviour.
bfhyjnv ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 22:21:53 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

Has she been diagnosed?
A polite "thanks" without taking a stance? Maybe a pondering "Umm... thanks?"

hahah woww. so you wouldn't discourage it either.
By Greg I mean Onision. Call him a dick, but he's encouraging people to discourage Eugenia's fans on her videos which isn't a bad thing in the long run. Sure, it may come across as jerky but imo promoting anorexia is pretty jerky too.

Still 0 evidence of this. If all you've got is some other dude deliberately shitting on someone, but nothing from the primary source I'm not gonna bother watching his vids. I don't know either and I take no sides, but your arguments are weak af and I object to that. You can suck off "Greg" all you like, but I don't get the vitriol on his behalf. Also I have no interest in competing in the special olympics with you. Thanks for pushing me towards more productive endeavors.

how am I putting words in your mouth? I was just asking what you meant..
Sure, but it doesn't take rocket science to tell the difference between an anorexic person and a healthy person. I think it's more than likely that Eugenia's been diagnosed officially but at this point it doesn't make a difference. If she went to the doctors right now and had an assessment done, we both know she'd be diagnosed with an eating disorder. Like I said, it's physically obvious.
Eugenia shows off her tiny arms and legs in every video. She obviously isn't ashamed of her body and while thats usually not a bad thing, it is in this situation. You can watch it from the 'primary source' if you'd like..

I googled her and shit, I'm probably thinner than her (180 cm, 45-50 kg.) From what I'd gathered through quick googling, she has a metabolic disorder or something? People seem so ridiculously fucking concerned, they clearly have never met me lol. And I'm a heavy eater, at least compared to the girls I know. (most of my classmates would give me their leftovers when I liked the food and during grill parties they'd stare at me filling myself with shit while they chirped away at their bird food)
Sadly, I don't happen to give a shit about most of Eugenia's videos, do I don't know whether I'll subscribe, but her commenters are fucking toxic and it would be fun to spite them with photoes of myself.

You're both underweight, but you are not nearly as low a weight as her. IIRC correctly she weighed in at 70-80 pounds recently. Possibly less.
It's possible she (and you) have hyperthyroidism or something similar. In which case I would recommend seeking treatment. Being underweight puts serious strain on your body. I'm not trying to shame you or anything, but you can seriously hurt yourself.
Zerewa ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 17:18:09 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'm significantly taller than her, though. I doubts she's much above average height, and I'm a freaking scyscraper, which makes me thinner even though I weigh more. (http://imgur.com/a/4QRTT photo showing my proportions somewhat)
Both my parents are doctors, believe me, I've had more blood tests than you can ever imagine. Only thing they ever found was Gilbert's. Shit, I had backdoor access to the local hospital and we could get it done in less than 5 minutes, so every time I felt sick they just brought me in, asked a nurse to pierce me and got the results when they returned for their next shift.
I've been like this ever since I was six months old, too. I started out as a huge ass baby, then started losing weight, and I've been like this ever since. My grandfather was stick thin, my father was stick thin, however both my grandmother and my aunt were/are fairly, umm, thick. Also, my mother looked like a scarecrow, too, and I have a cousin that's similarly thin, though not to the extent I am. I'm also relatively muscular. I'm no weight lifter or anything, but I have very high endurance in low to medium intensity activities such as walking, even in difficult environments. And no other symptoms of hyperthyroidism apply, either. So yeah, nothing has been found yet that suggests that this is anything but my regular bodily functions.

I don't know if this garners more views, but it's pretty pathetic all the same. I hate when the person making the video will just talk about nothing for the first 3 or 4 minutes of a 5 minute video, telling you to "PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE GUYS!"
For example:
Video tutorial on how to attach a file in an email
"Hey, guys! OutLookPro2001, here with Part 4 of our 9 part series on how to attach a file to an email using OutLook!"
"Before we get started, make sure you check out parts 1-3 by clicking here."
7 annotations come up blocking the entire screen
"Also make sure you like and subscribe to this channel. And if you have any other problems with Microsoft Office Suite, check out my other channels, ExcelPro2001, PowerPointPro2001, and MicrosoftWord2001."
Now 2 minutes into the 5 minute video...
"Alright guys, so in parts 1-3...annotations pop up again...we discussed turning on the computer, opening OutLook, and starting a New Email."
"So, in this part, we'll be discussing "Clicking the Paperclip".
1 minute left in video
"So what you wanna do here, is go ahead and click on the paperclip icon that says "Attach file".
"Alright, guys! That's gonna do it here for Part 4 of our 9 part series of attaching a file to an OutLook email! Make sure to like and subscribe, and I'll see you next week for Part 5: Browsing your Computer for the file. Bye!"

On top of that, tutorial videos that are clearly being done on the fly. You should at least have SOME idea of what the fuck you want to say before you start, or edit out the fucking fluff when you make a mistake or say 'hold on' while you figure it out. It's fucking youtube, not a live stream. EDIT YOUR SHIT. We don't need to sit here for 30 seconds twiddling your thumbs while you try to figure out the next step in your own damn tutorial. Especially after 4 minutes of praddling to GET to that point talking about your damn channel and other tutorials.

Then their mic is super loud or just cuts out for part of the video so they add some crap-ass annotations to cover it, rather than recording the audio separately to begin with, the way anyone who gives a shit would :P

Canon Camcorder (forget the model#) and a small samson usb condenser mic. Not sure about camera costs, but the mic is ~40 usd and a decent lapel mic can be had for ~10 usd. The key is to record the audio completely separate, then integrate later (not much work tbh).
djuggler ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 02:51:04 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Oh, I see what you are saying. I do often use just the phone as a quick and dirty but I will also record with a Panasonic SDR-S7 and a Tascam DR-40. I'll even use the Tascam DR-40 in conjunction with the phone. You are correct that it makes an enormous difference. I'll edit in Adobe Premiere Pro when I edit but sometimes the difference between filming a video and getting it published and filming a video to never publishing it comes down to deciding to skip the editing.

True. My problem is more when people monetize some pos video they did in 5 mins and expect people not to shit on it. There are times that quick and dirty works, but there's no excuse for the sort of person who films their computer screen with a phone or doesn't even try to get discernable audio.

And it's not like video editing just to cut out slow content is that hard. It's literally just cutting at the ends of the boring bits, deleting that bit, then smushing the rest over. I can't think of a single editing program where that is difficult to do. Doing it well with nice transitions is another matter, but shitty cuts are better than leaving in dead air time.

I really wondered what the hell was going on when that 'service' takes forever to do fairly small changes. Even worse when finishing a video and it takes a day or two to 'finish'. It's like it has to be e-mailed to at least 50 people and watched before an edit responds.

Maybe you're the guy to ask. Why do so many YouTube videos have cuts for no reason? Is this just a phenomenon with the times? If I want to make watchable YT videos do I need to add random cuts in the middle of the same shot when it's clearly the same sentence and I haven't moved?

Could be for any number of reasons; For gameplay videos I've cut out overly-long bits that didn't have anything interesting happening in either gameplay or the voice-over, or because I said something that really shouldn't be said on YouTube (at least without making the video "mature" and losing any potential for ad revenue), because of something like a coughing fit or other body sound that just isn't great for videos, or just because whoever was talking did a re-take vocally (this is kind of rare IME); I'm probably not the best person to ask, but those are at least reasons

I'm sure they'll eventually put an installer together with FFmpeg bundled, no idea why they didn't for the test release given how well it work otherwise.

I've really been enjoying MPV. It's probably the best video player out there, because it works perfectly out of the box, even with an endless amount of customisability.
Foobar2000 is arguably the best Windows music player because of its ridiculous customisability. (On Linux, I use the ultra-minimalist cmus.)
On Android, I've found "Vanilla music" to be the most intuitive music player. Likewise on Android, Lightning browser is perhaps even better than Firefox despite its lack of addons.

Weirdly enough, shotcut is kind of shitty at editing videos. I suffered constant crashes, especially when more than one video/audio channel was involved, manipulating speed and volume was needlessly complicated and I found it just plain infuriating for anything more than "snip this small section out".

I have a real intense hatred for creative cloud, and everything moving to a cloud/SaaS model. I want to be able to do shit when I'm not connected to the internet, and to not pay a subscription fee in perpetuity to be a creative professional and that's why I stubbornly hold on to CS6. (I mean, I'm not a creative professional anyway, but still...)
This is only related very tangentially but my hatred burns pretty hot on that issue.

I've been using the same version of Adobe Premiere for years now (since 2008) and should probably consider upgrading to something that isn't a 9 year old video editing program. Render times are garbage on it and will always be garbage (regardless of hardware) because it can't use multiple cores to render and is 32 bit.
But yeah, I think I need something newer. I could try Resolve and see how that is. Hmmm.

I'll warn you that the editing portion of Resolve still has a long way to go, but it can get the job done. It's all primarily a color system, so I only use the editor for basic tweaks when I'm doing color.

It's because it's on purpose. They do this because YouTube now favours "Watch time" over "Views". Before this change, short videos of a high standard were required for views, but now there's a quantity over quality approach for watch time.

Oh man; tutorials for any video/editing/motion graphics software are the best cause the creators always have a rudimentary understanding of video production; Like, they always cut out dead air and will sometimes zoom in and highlight the area/buttons they're describing. Comparatively, if I want to watch a guide for a hobby, I have to sit through have an hour of unscrewing bolts, finding tools, and needless shit.

One of my university classes is all online and taught through a series of YouTube videos made by the professor. He obviously doesn't have a script and doesn't believe in video editing. Also, it's a programming class and none of the videos are in HD which makes it nearly impossible to see the code.

This was the worst thing when I was building my PC and needed some tutorial videos. They would never have anything planned and often ramble about random parts or other computer related things. I just wanted to see if everything was connected right, not hear a history, and personal experience, on Asus motherboards or something.

Yeah. I can't do youtube tutorials on computer stuff unless I want something very specific for exactly that reason. Honestly, your best bet is checking the manual for the motherboard, it'll clearly list what connects to where. I did a lot of flipping back and forth between my chassis manual and motherboard manual setting up my current rig. So many built in features for led lights and crap that aren't totally obvious where they connect, guh.

I'm a computer tech and sometimes I'll use a tutorial on YouTube for some uncommon tasks, like screen replacement on a particular model of laptop I haven't worked with before.
What really grinds my gears is when it's recorded all in one take with no audio and the guy is fucking typing everything he should be saying into note pad! The videos are long and horrible as described in the comments above.
It bothers me so much I sometimes make tutorial videos for problems when I find a demand. I have no formal training so it takes me 5+ hours to record, edit, record audio retakes, QA, render and upload just for a 15 min video.
Here is one of my videos as a sample of the MINIMUM acceptable tutorial video quality IMO https://youtu.be/e-FaSQ3ugN0

I used to record quite a lot of youtube tutorials back in the day. Very occasionally I still do.
I always made sure that I knew exactly what I was doing. I would run through tutorial at least three times. Once to work out the process, once to make sure I knew it step by step, and once to record it.
You wouldn't believe how many times I would stop and re-record a section (or the entire video) because I messed up a single step, simply because didn't want the video to be confusing.
It boils my piss when I watch a tutorial and they are clearly making it up on the fly. Especially when it's something complex. I suffered through a 20-minute video recently only for the guy to turn around and say "you know what? I've done this wrong. I don't really remember how to do this".
Why the fuck would you upload that?

My big project at work this quarter is making a series of onboarding videos for one of my company's apps, and I spent about a week watching screencasts/demos/onboarding videos from our competitors and from other industries specifically to see what they fuck up and how.
The biggest thing?
One of our main competitors recently published a video that is ten minutes of someone talking over the fucking app's UI and occasionally clicking (and often misclicking) on various screen elements. No script. Lots of unrelated tangents. Bad, awful, terrible. My favorite part was that they recorded the audio using their laptop's shitty mic in a noisy room though.
I'm a technical writer by trade and am not great at doing anything spoken on the fly. My onboarding materials were meticulously scripted, and I'm actually storyboarding almost every sequence to make sure that it .. isn't perfect, but also isn't tedious and a waste of time to watch.

I had this idea of a series of youtube tutorial videos where it slowly becomes clear the instructor doesn't know what they're doing and is just winging it. The inspiration were videos about how to roll a cigarette. There's exactly one part that's hard in rolling a cigarette: getting the paper to 'tuck in'. So cue several videos of people with interesting taste in hats detailing why you'd want to roll a cigarette, the cost savings, how to select the paper and the tobacco, how you should hold the paper, how to roll it into a tube. And then - bam - the cigarette is rolled, with a off hand comment about tucking it in. And then a long explanation of how cool it is that you've now rolled a cigarette. Infuriating.

I'll be the first person to say this and I may be late for anyone to notice this but I was fucking impressed with this video. So here's the story.
I needed to print out, fill out, and scan something for school and Kinkos is no longer 24 hours where I live, so I just went to walmart and bought the HP Deskjet 2132 Printer for like 40 bucks. Cheap and I thought it would do the job as it has a scanner and printer and it's not large and bulky or anything.
So I am pretty fucking good at all things technology. My friends come to ME for advice.
So I set everything up, download the drivers off their website instead of using the CD as my CD-ROM is broke on my HP All in one.
I go to print shit off but it wouldn't print and said there's no paper in it and I was having a fucking TIME trying to find where the fuck to insert the paper. I know it sounds stupid right? Simple looking printer there's only one real place the paper can go logically. Well, I'm an idiot and I put the paper in the top as you'll se in the video but I forgot one fucking thing.
If you go to the tutorial video at the 5:58 mark it will talk about adjusting the paper width guide all the way to the left so the paper will fit down. That was where I fucked up. I didn't adjust the damn paper width guide and because it's somewhat clear and hard to see I didn't even notice it. Because I'm dumb and it never occurred to me.
My point is, this video is no bullshit. He goes through every single step in a clear and concise way and visually shows you and identifies everything.
It's HP's youtube, so I am more impressed because there's no ads, there's no bullshit. It's a perfect way to explain to people how to set up this cheap ass printer.
For that, I am thankful. Also, you can find ANYTHING on the internet if you google/youtube for it. Resourcing is a valued skill to have. I can't tell you how many times people ask me shit I say "Did you try youtubing or googling instructions for how to set that up?" and they say "no."
Most people understand there's a lot of idiots in the world like myself and I'm very thankful they did this for people like me.
As a side note: I also enjoy this video because of the crinkle sound when he is unpackaging the ink for the printer. Also, his touching things is some good ASMR shit.
tldr: HP youtube video showed me how to set up printer, it was dope shit.

I kinda like videos where it's not entirely scripted. Like most of the tutorial videos I watch are on 3D software or after effects and having the YouTuber say out his though process (I could try to do this, but xxx) helps me learn a lot more too as it quickens up my learning process by letting me know why he did what he did or didn't do it. But those who are obviously incompetent? Fuck off

One exception to this that I've found, is for coding videos (like PHP). Sometimes it's helpful to see someone make a mistake, realise it and then explain why his code wouldn't run because of it.
Real life coding isn't perfect first time, and it's easy to make mistakes. Even professional developers use the trial and error approach. Write the code, see if it runs, if it doesn't then use the error to fix the bit of code that went wrong.
I'd rather have that, than the videos where a guy has something that works on his second monitor and he's just copying it, pretending he's writing it for the first time to show off. I'd prefer to see a guy start with a plan, and end up roughly meeting it, but having to change/fix a bit of logic along the way. You get a way deeper understanding that way.
In my own projects, I have some that are in use and worked perfect with little to no bugs. If I get called tomorrow about something that needs fixing on it, I'm going to have to relearn it. It's the ones that needed to be fiddled with/reworked constantly that stick out for me.

Didn't help that when I went to r/cartalk to ask about how to replace the brakes on my car I just got called a dumbshit and a pussy because I didn't know how to do something I'd never done before and had no prior knowledge of how to do it and came to the subreddit to ask for help IN A HELP BASED SUBREDDIT. Go suck a dick, r/cartalk.

Fish can be surprisingly hardy. I once moved into a new apartment to discover the previous owner had left a goldfish in a washing-up bowl, and it was still alive and well. I don't know how long it had been there but it was at least three days, since I didn't move in on day one of the lease.
My mum ended up adopting it, and it lived for a good couple of years after that.

cfuse ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 00:29:50 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
A large part of the problem is that they are nothing more than fancy carp. Carp are one of the dirtiest fish ever, and goldfish are usually kept in a relatively small vessel (for the amount of ammonia they produce).
Evolving_Dore ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 02:20:54 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Which is why educating yourself about the nature of your pet is crucial. The problem isn't that they stink up the size vessel they're usually kept in, the problem is that they're usually kept in containers that are far too small for their requirements. They have the reputation of being low maintenance, low occupancy pets, which isn't true at all.

A few years back I switched from Android to an iPhone... and to be honest I actually have no idea what the default iPhone ring tone even sounds like, because at that point I'd been keeping my phone on vibrate for so long out of habit I simply turned my phone on vibrate the moment I bought it.
In my mind now, the sound of a phone "ringing" is actually the sound of it vibrating on the table.

I mean there is definitely some graphic stuff in there but it's not exactly fanservice material, you're more likely to find gratuitous gore and even then it's not that common in the fanart. Anyone who gets a boner from reading Berserk should see a psychiatrist.

Most people who use those wallpapers live alone, usually in their own apartment or dorm.

Basically it has to do with a historically commercialized form of misogyny. It goes all the way back to how Japanese used to run brothels in other parts of East Asia by basically selling the tortuous treatment of enslaved women and children as a sexual "comfort" to men who were damaged by the terrors of war (with the Japanese). This was so ubiquitous and influential that these East Asian countries are actually still the main market for misogynist pornography from Japan. This stuff eventually also spawned certain forms of hentai and the images of sexualized crying schoolgirls that you may be familiar with. The part of International Otaku culture that is into those pictures and which you see in random YouTube videos is really just a tiny offshoot of this whole industry.

Most videos I watch are tutorials on firearm assembly/modification, car maintenance, or home repairs. For some reason the rednecks who make these videos always have to arbitrarily get political.

No. I hate when I'm trying to fix something in my house and the guy making the video thinks he's Tomi Lahren.

Yeah I get you. I know that youtubers need likes and subs or they won't get more views. The algorithm is tough. But at the same time the focus on the content should be #1. If they want to do a 2 second plug at the end of a video to say "hey if you liked the video please consider liking the video and subscribing to my channel." that'd be fine.
The people you're talking about are out of control and it pains me when their videos are the ones that pop up in Google results for a simple tutorial I'm looking for.

One of the YouTubers I watch simply says "like if you did, subscribe if you want" which takes about 2 seconds at the end of the video. If you insist on pleading for likes and subscribers, that is the correct way to do it.

Annotations are honestly the worst thing YouTube ever added, from a viewer perspective at least. Nobody can shut the fuck up during their own videos and actually let you watch the content you came for instead of be prompted to navigate away from it.
mattylou ยท 72 points ยท Posted at 00:03:33 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Annotations are great if they're being used for their intended use. For example, after the video they'll have annotations that say stuff like "behind the scenes of that awesome car wreck!" Or "watch the extended cut!"
That's what most advertisers do because we just automatically assume most people aren't interested in our videos and it's considered a success when someone "clicks through", but interrupting ads with more ads is a big no no.
DoctorWaluigiTime ยท 45 points ยท Posted at 00:19:48 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I'll never understand how the "put a thin border but otherwise completely transparent" annotation is of any use. I literally only see it used for "put a gaint clickable fuck you over the whole video so you'll accidentally click it and be sent elsewhere."
LikeTheSwood ยท 44 points ยท Posted at 00:29:07 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's used for endcards mostly. They'll have little previews (or just the thumbnail) of other videos, with the transparent one over top so that you can see what you're about to watch before you click it.
Recently though, YouTube added a feature where you can just directly have a little video link, thumbnail and all, in your videos, so transparent annotations are falling out of favour. These new video annotations only show the thumbnail, so it reduces click bait too by not having them show you an actual clip that might not even be in the video.
I personally am fine with endcards and I think they have their use, but having a transparent annotation over everything is a horrible, cheap tactic.
VaHaLa_LTU ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 01:44:55 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Setting my Youtube account to have annotations disabled by default has made my life so much easier. Now I need to go into video settings to enable them if there is something that I REALLY want to click through, but most of the time the relevant videos will show up in suggestions on the right anyway.
The new end cards are somewhat annoying, as I haven't figured out a way to disable those yet, and some channels have no idea how to use them properly.

You can't disable end cards. The annotation setting doesn't do anything to them, and neither does having a YouTube Red subscription. That bullshit will block your video, and you don't get to decide otherwise.
You can use an AdBlock filter to block them on desktop, but on mobile you would have to downgrade your app or something.

An easy thing doable on a desktop browser: install the browser addon Tampermonkey (Chrome(ium)) or Greasemonkey (Firefox(based)) and then download an userscript like Youtube+ and turn of the annotations there. I'll never missed them since then.
Edit: I should really clarify what I mean exactly. So this userscript name as above I've installed gives me the choice to disable the annotations for all time and every video played on Youtube self if I select the option "Disable annotations" Relevant settings page of the user script . There was a misunderstanding from my side, so yes I did turn of the annotations before as well with the gear wheel, I just didn't do the translation (of preferences) to English in my head to know what you all ment.

I don't use a Youtube account is it still possible then to choose the Youtube preferences? I haven't seen this on the page before. So by now the userscript was the most comfortable solution for me.

In the little gear settings on a YouTube video, you can turn off annotations. It won't save that as a preference, though.

As you mention it should have been clear for me what he ment, I just doesn't translated it in my head to English since I don't use the Youtube UI in english. I've done this for a while (disabling the annotations) until I installed the script I'll add a screenshot how the page of the script looks like for me. /r/userscripts is generally a relevant subreddit on the topic I brought up with my comment.

Yeah, the (one) clou for me at this userscript is that it has a option you can enable so this happens automatically if you watch a video on Youtube directly. It doesn't work if you watch an embedded video but most of the time I switch on this videos to YT anyways.

agree, it glitched out for me for ages too... closed captions would randomly get enabled in place of annotations. That said it seems to have been behaving the last couple of months I get neither closed captions nor annotations now.
only sucky thing is SOMETIMES an Annotation is useful, like in an instructional video and they made a mistake and correct it in an annotation-- yeh don't get to see those. Fucking youtube, their annotation system is shit

Or, the opposite, watching on my TV:

Annotations are bad because so many people use them gratuitously and so most viewers will set annotations disabled by default and therefore many people will miss the actually important annotations.

Remember back around the 2010 era of YouTube when everyone would place screen-filling annotations on their videos, so if you were to click on the screen to pause it, a new tab would open to their shitty website, video, or whatever else.
Smosh used to do this on all of their videos back in the day (I'm not sure if they still do) and it was very frustrating.

While Achievement Hunter does do this, they, thankfully, have that portion at the end of their video nowadays, so I don't have to care. A quick fifteen second intro on what the video is, if that, and then the video.
Of course, they also edit their videos so they're watchable as well, which is nice.

If anybody wants the real reason for this, its because the longer the videos are, the more money you get off monetising it as ads are more likely to show. They can make the video 1 minute long but a lot of potential monetiseable views are lost in this

Every tutorial video has to be at least 12x longer than it takes to actually do the task. They get more sidebar time for the amount of time spent watching their videos so they hook you in as long as possible. There's a market for 30s-1m video tutorials just showing you what you need but they'll never see those videos because they aren't advertised.

Unfortunately my video would be 10 seconds long and makes 12cents while theirs is 5 or even 10 minutes long and would do a lot better. I think 10 minute videos are working the best right now on Youtube, thats why everyone is doing it.

Oh god this is so accurate. I went looking for a video for how to speed up cutting pomegranates since I vaguely remembered some good technique in a video I saw on Facebook ages ago. It was all videos like this with terrible "hacks" and tons of views.
The worst offender was titled something like "Deseed a pomegranate in 30 seconds!!!" The video was over five minutes long and the first three minutes was the guy rambling about his channels and then facts about pomogranates and vitamins he was clearly pulling out of his ass. When he finally gets to the "hack", it's just like he tries to cut it open fast and scoop things out fast, but takes over a minute anyway. I get why people are so hostile in the comments now. I hate that guy. I wanted to make multiple accounts to keep slamming him personally.

Or the tutorial videos with names like "how to do x in 1 minute!" But the video is ten minutes long, the first minute is a crappy dubstep intro, then the next five minutes is them talking about what they're showing how to do, the next minute is them actually showing how to do it, the next two minutes is them telling everybody to like and subscribe, the final minute is the dupstep outro, which is exactly the same as the intro, and in the end, the video doesn't help a single bit.

Dude, I got to this video by googling "How to fold origami crane." I know what origami is, and I know why I want to fold the darn crane. Just show me how!

To go along with this, it's way too common for youtubers to spend time in the beginning of the video talking about their lives.
Yeah yeah it's fascinating that haven't been making videos lately because x, y and z, but seriously every youtuber says that shit, just show the content. If you need to get personal with the very small percentage of your subs that actually care do it at the end.

This is funny. I also have a side example.
I don't play league of legends anymore but still keep up with it because I enjoy the game itself but just cannot devote the time to it.
Anyways, there are so many guides on YouTube and finding good tutorials or guides to playing a Champion at a high level can be pretty annoying. You have so many of them that either have just their face in the camera and them reading stuff off or yelling at the screen. I never understood the appeal of Sky Williams. I hear he's a nice guy and have no issues with him, but his content where he yells at the screen with quick cuts is just obnoxious. I guess it's what his audience likes though.
Or you have people that show gameplay but don't describe what they are doing are what you need to think about or do. Showing a jungler clear for example and not explaining the reasoning for the clear, or what options you gain or give up doing the clear. It's just "do this and you will win".
Anyways, there is a guy on YouTube who makes "challenger in 3 minutes" videos for mid lane champions. I'm on mobile and cannot remember his channel name or his twitch name. Anyways, so his videos are perfect. They have runes, masteries, items and a quick reason why for each (a lot of runes, mysteries, and items are binary so some tunes don't have reasons other than it's the most optimal). He then describes the lane phase and what you should be thinking and trying to do. He gives a few meta lane matchups you may run into and if you need to run different summoners. He the. Describes the mid game and power spikes, then the late game. It's brilliant, it's quick and he's has simple footage to show it. Then he shows some mechanical tips and tricks such as using flash with an ability or something. Then it's over. It was 3 minutes and you feel like you have a grasp of the champion conceptually and can practice the execution while playing.
Being as concise and clear as possible is always the most valued characteristic for tutorials and guides in my opinion.

I don't always expect a top notch video from h3h3 because I like their content, but this one left me feeling like I had my time wasted. It's believable enough, but it was just over-exaggerated since they also said it was only for like a week. Which basically means it didn't happen.

Yes, I know... They watch a few seconds of something, talk about the original channel and video, then stop talk/joke about the few seconds they've seen, make a small sketch joking some concept then go back to another part of the video watch it for another 10 seconds stop and talk/joke about it etc.
Of a 7 minute video they might have one minute (maybe two tops) of the original video they are reacting to. And are creative enough about their content.
So yeah, reaction videos done right not the whole re upload a popular video for views on my channel thing.

By the way, I think running a shitty giveaway was better than not running it at all for his publicity, also, if those boxes in the truck really were legit, what happened to the rest of them after he only gave out 9 and closed the giveaway since in the next video he gave out newer phones IIRC.

keep in mind that the "fake giveaway" in the post that giy links is him showing a bunch of iphone boxes and saying hes doing an iphone giveaway, nowhere in the actual video does he state hes giving away 1000 iphones like the reddit post claims.
Eshmam14 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 15:13:53 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I remember watching that video. The way he worded himself implied that he intended to give away literally truck full of the iPhones. In reality, most were probably just empty boxes as he gave away 9 iPhones and garnered possibly tens of thousands of new subscribers from all the RT's and shares of his video.

They were Iphones. The truckload of "iphones" was actually just the empty promotional boxes that are just a few dollars, You can't say "I'm going to give away thousands of iphones" and expect none of your millions of subscribers to not find out you are lying. I'm not sure what he expected.

This wasn't on YouTube, it was on Facebook, but it is still relevant to the topic.
There was a story I heard about a guy who wanted to be a weather forecaster, so he made weather forecast videos on his Facebook. Apparently he wasn't getting enough views for his liking, so he started an actual forest fire and reported on it live on Facebook. He called the fire department to put it out after he lit it, and was almost immediately arrested when they got there with police.
Again, not youtube, but still a pathetic attempt to increase views.

Cold sores are caused by a herpes virus, warts are caused by a HPV virus.
While we usually only call cold sores and genital herpes "herpes", the viruses that cause chicken pox and mono are also herpes viruses. They so common that pretty much everyone carry at least one of them, most people have 4-5 herpes viruses in their body.

What's the difference? A genital wart is just a wart that is on your genitals instead of feet, hands or face etc.
I understand that people freak out more when it involves the genitals but there isn't really any difference.

To add onto what /u/c1ng3d said it's an infamous quote from Prank Invasions most popular videos from where he goes to a beach and 'allegedly' makes out with moms in front of their kids using his super secret seduction techniques. It is incredibly creepy because Chris(the guy who runs the channel) straight up is mouth fucking these girls and feeling them up in public and infront of kids/babies.
Basically Chris is a scam artist who pays strippers/actresses/prostitutes to star in his videos where he quickly seduces and makes out with various girls in different professions and locations(kissing girls at the gym, kissing doctors, kissing cops, you get the idea). He panders to guys with low self confidence and guys who are bad with women and tries to sell them his 'secret' on how to pick up girls quickly when all he really does is essentially take your money and run after you fall for it.
If you want, check out his most popular videos here. It's a hoot.

Sadly, I feel like most of my subs are just people who saw that, thought I agreed to sub4sub, and subbed to mine. I have almost 200 and find it hard to break 10 views a video.

Because it's not on air. YouTubers do plenty of stupid things in videos for views. This is something that can artificially boost their sub count not on camera, but behind the scenes. Apologies if I didnt make that clear.

What do you mean it's "not on air"? What does doing stupid things in videos have to do with it? How could a behind the scenes video "artificially boost their sub count not on camera", and what on earth does that even mean?
AlternateButtons ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 15:29:54 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Let me take you back to square one to clear up any confusion.
Sub for sub is a technique some small channels use to gain subs. What this means is that they will say to you "Hey I'll subscribe to you, if you subscribe to me!" This is shitty because this doesn't help either channel. One person isn't going to watch the others content so it just artificially boosts a number that results in no views.
A lot of YouTubers will do things for views IN VIDEOS. Like clickbait thumbnails, Subscribe baiting people ("Hey if you enjoyed this video, like comment and subscribe!") and shock humor like prank videos.
Sub for sub isn't done on camera. Hence my use of the word "Behind the Scenes". Does that clear things up?
Heelhounds ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 15:32:23 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yes, I know what sub4sub is and why it's bad. I specifically asked what behind the scenes videos have to do with this. These are two completely different things.
Behind the scenes videos are when someone makes a video about another video they made, showing you how they made that video. It has next to nothing to do with the whole sub4sub scheme that is going on.
AlternateButtons ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 15:35:51 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Okay now you're just misunderstanding me completely. Forget Behind the Scenes videos. This has NOTHING to do with that. In fact, forget the word "Behind the Scenes" altogether since it's just confusing you.
Sub for sub is done off camera. That's all I meant.

I know Funhaus has a decent amount of sponsered videos. Makes sense from a business standpoint, they average a few hundred thousand views per video and it's all the target market of people interested in video games. I really don't see the issue with it if they disclose it's a sponsered video. No different than Shaq trying to sell me Gold Bond baby powder.

I really dislike this now, actually. The whole pretending to be sarcastic and aloof about advertising during an advertisement makes me want to turn the video right off. The dramatic irony is so thin and bland I kinda don't understand why people still enjoy it. The shtick dates back at least 25 years, and I'd be shocked if Wayne's World was the first to do it, either. It was a nice gag a couple times; it was not funny ten thousand times.
It's not sincere, it's not really making fun of the product, it's not really anti-advertising or whatever; they focus group this shit, they know they're taking zero risks, it's all just another calculated ploy and it's really overplayed at this point.

Yeah, all of Rooster Teeth (who owns FunHaus) are good at the sponsor thing. If they're sponsored to make a short out of something, they usually go all out and try to actually make enjoyable entertainment out of it. Also, on the podcasts they usually only sponsor things they believe in, like Michael Jones actually wears MVMT watches, and literally everyone at Rooster Teeth wears MeUndies

Oh man, I mainly listen to the different RT podcasts (The titular one, Dude Soup, and Off Topic) along with How Did This Get Made
RT ad integration is miles ahead of HDTGM. Paul just isn't good at reading them naturally, and for me it hurts that they just hard cut the audio and put him reading ads in for 4-5 minutes at a time.

Paradox are another publisher that does similar stuff, sometimes before big releases they'll pay a whole load of youtubers to flyout out to Sweden and do a big multiplayer game, other times they just give said youtubers all the games + DLC before they're released so they can get videos out on or before release date.

A lot of producers are very up-forward about "Hey, this developer paid me to review their game early" (Especially The Completionist, who's consistently really cool about his content). And a lot of the time it's cool to see a game I've been waiting for in advance.

I actually rather like when they do this, as long as it's disclosed to me. LGR is a youtuber I like and one of the things he's known for is Sims reviews. EA started giving him the various packs for free to review, even if he says he doesn't like them overall.

I started off playing AC 1 on a tube TV that made it so I literally couldn't read subtitles so I had no idea what was going on. Now with AC3 I can read subtitles and the game is now boring as fuck. I was stuck on a mission and my younger brother even commented on how terrible that mission was. Not as fun of an experience compared to Shadows of Mordor which is a lot better.

Well it's bad (and also illegal) if it's not disclosed properly.

I'm pretty sure they always legally have had to, but a few more YouTubers do it now after seeing it blow up in other content creator's faces, such as Syndicate and Tmartn with their gambling site.
As long as they notify YouTube it is sponsored content when uploading their video, they are safe to upload as it may piss off the advertisers who pay to have their content featured on Youtube only to have their advertisement on a video that is essentially just promoting a product, no quality content there I guess

A lot of times game devs will send copies first to paid youtubers before sending it to traditional outlets. For example Bethesda did not send out copies of Skyrim Remastered to reviewers before release (I think they had 24 hours with it before release), but did send them to youtubers and Twitch streams.

My favorite part of his response video was when he did a side-by-side of her telling of the story, and an actual video of what really happened.
She's in her vlog crying, saying he was squeezing her and wouldn't let go. She said she was worried he had a gun or knife, that he was going to kill someone. That he was doing a thumbs up in front of the camera with an evil grin. Everything is so dramatic.
When in reality he simply rested his hand on her shoulder to take the picture, and easily let go once she moved away. And looking at all of her other videos, they are clearly exaggerated to ridiculous levels as well.
For an 18 year old girl, she apparently has a pretty wild life. But as he said, she is an archetype of the basic bitch.

It's clear from idubbbz videos that he's of at least above average intelligence but the way he psychologically profiles and baits people into doing EXACTLY what they need to do to look like the biggest idiot in retrospect is nothing short of savantry. The way he breaks down keemstars sociopathy and then watching him respond in exactly the ways he described in the initial video after watching that exact video are fucking uncanny. Same thing with leafy; leafy should've had the common sense to take the piss and run with it but instead he was thin-skinned and let it get to him exactly like idubbbz fucking said he would and it was masterful.
All combined I'm not convinced idubbbz instead either in possession of some sort of "Groundhog Day-esque" time travel machine or a closet psychological genius. I'm not even being hyperbolic his track record earnestly earns him an impromptu spot in Mensa.

My girlfriend showed me a few of her videos a while ago, and I was pretty skeptical. One video, she claimed that they were pulled over with an entire car full of drugs (she said the floor of the car was covered in weed. Exaggeration much?), they were all high, speeding, and the cop let them go. She also has a huge amount of nonsensical videos about her "stalker" that are just dumb.

Yeah she strikes me as the kind of girl who accuses people of raping/abusing her when nothing happened. She totally made it look like he was aggressively grabbing her and hurting her when in reality he gently had his hand on her arm. She easily got away and he didn't even say or do anything else besides that.

Agh some months ago I was watching some videos and the playlist got to her "kidnapped by uber driver" video. I had never hated a video so much. She even included parts of the ride she filmed where she said something like "omg we are being kidnapped". I don't think you'd get a chance of doing that if you were being kidnapped and even if you did, why not filming the freaking driver instead of looking for the best angle to show your boobs?

I don't know how often viewers look at the description but a lot of her uber stories actually did have a promo code "LINKED IN THE DESCRIPTION BELOW SO YOU CAN GO CHECK THAT OUT" -every youtuber ever. I really don't care about promos, if a youtuber wants to be sponsored, then go right ahead. The thing is, she fucking lied about this, and for a couple videos she managed to slip in retarded shit like "I don't wanna be sponsored because I don't care about the money." Bull fucking shit tana mongoose.

Or the one where she says her stalker broke into her house and her "evidence" is that she came home and the blinds were angled a different way (she lived with her mom iirc) and that the blanket over her dog's crate had fallen off. Literally nothing about actually seeing her "stalker" or any strange person in her house.

Then she all of a sudden tried to be "real" and "positive" and she turned into a hypocrite. Her thing was that she complained in over the top ways, and then all of a sudden it's too negative for her and she needs to preach. I fucking hate it.

Tana: female YouTube who tells these crazy stories that are way over exaggerated and has a couple million subscribers because of it. Preaches positivity and is possibly one of the most negative youtubers out there. Tries to destroy people's reputations as soon as they even look at her the wrong way. Has clickbait-y titles. Recently made a video called "the n word" where she cried for 25 minutes crocodile tears and exaggerated the story of Idubbbz meeting her and taking a picture with her and he said "sayyyy nigger" instead of say cheese.
Idubbbz: make Youtuber known to make "Content Cop" videos where he exposes youtubers for their bullshit and this typically leads to them losing a lot of subscribers because their subscribers see how messed up the YouTuber really is (I.e. Tana saying she's gonna make an apology video like 2 weeks ago and still hasn't and went to a rave instead, but posting on twitter acting like she was so sad and doesn't wanna live anymore and shit, which further indicated that everything she says is a lie and that she doesn't care about her followers or she would've stopped making excuses and made her apology video---ALSO she said IN the 25 minute video she doesn't care about any backlash the video gets. Very clearly lying.)

He does all sorts of stuff but his content cops are usually done for a reason, for example Keemstar. With the Tana video that's the first instance that I have seen him do something like that. I am not defending him or praising what he did but I think that the point of doing this was to prove the hypocrisy of her videos and how she always exaggerates things.
Although I do agree that it was a bit weird, I did find it quite funny given the context of the video and idubbbz's style.

He explicitly says in his video that she was so predictable and self absorbed that no matter what he did, she would make it about her and over exaggerate/lie.
So he decides to go to her event, say the n-word in bad taste, and she now has the upper hand. She can totally rib him for that, but instead she decides to lie and say he tried to kill her, he was holding her hostage, had weapons etc.
So he basically lost a battle to win the war. If he didn't go to her event and she didn't lie about what happened, this drama would still be going on.

He was absolutely being a creep.
I barely know iDubbz (The only video I ever watched before was the leafy Content Cop and I thought it was pretty good) and I didn't know this Tana girl at all.
I watched most of the Content Cop video and I just didn't get how people were on his side. Like, iDubbbz clearly made that video to make himself look good, but he didn't convince me. Do I think that this Tana girl (or whatever she's called) is innocent and completely on the right side? No. But iDubbbz was acting super inappropriately. Saying "nigger" a bunch of times is just racist, no matter how you spin it, even if it's done ironically. He's a white guy saying nigger for fun to a bunch of other white guys who are watching his videos - he's pretty much normalizing racism with that, although to give him the benefit of doubt, I don't think he realizes this. He probably doesn't get that words have power too.
Not to mention the whole stalker thing. He is an adult. How many adults do you know that stalk girls, slander them in their vidoes, and literally drive miles and miles to go to an event just to intimidate and ridicule them in public? Just to prove some sort of point? It's pathetic if you ask me.
malphasia ยท 13 points ยท Posted at 02:56:40 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I agree to an extent. I'm an idubbbz fan but it just came off as petty since Tana is an absolute GOLDMINE of bad decisions. He could have criticized her for faking her stalker story, he could have addressed the implications of basically telling all your young female fans that you can be rich and famous if you lie and play the victim card all the time, but instead he just made a basic "you're giving the word power by choosing to be offended!" argument since saying "nigger" is the only thing she criticized him for.
Jeanpuetz ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 10:59:28 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, and I also think it's a shame that iDubbbz chose to go in that direction because I feel like the guy could do so much better. When I watched his videos, it was clear that the guy has a good sense of humor. He has great comedic timing, he knows how to form an argument and his videos have really good production value.
And I assume that he actually has a lot of videos that are really good.
But in that Tana video he just chose to use his talent to be really immature IMO. Why pander to teenagers by saying edgy slurs and making fun of some chick in a really creepy way instead of making... good content?

But yet for some reason, which I haven't heard or seen anything from either side about this, idubzzz thought it was appropriate to do at a place where he knew there would be tons of kids. What he did was not okay and not appropriate. Idubzzz is and always will be a loser for that. No matter how much tana blew it out of proportion, which was a little but not as crazy as she made it. Because it's been well documented that she did legit have a stalker at one point. Idubzzz is a little fucking pathetic loser who thinks it's okay to say the n word at a children's event. So he can literally go fuck the space between his mattresses like he probably does every night.

Honestly, i doubt any of the kids who are on kids react or teens react are ever surprised by the stuff they're told to react to. I grew up with youtube, and so did these kids, so at this point, they should probably have pretty extensive knowledge of pop-culture, especially the 80's. I mean, seriously, unless these kids have spent their whole lives watching braindead story-time videos(which I doubt because they hang out with big youtubersk), there's almost no way for them to be surprised by the sight of a Walk-man.

The recent video of north koreans trying US BBQ was pretty tremendous. Excellent production quality, they put effort into it, and they mixed their reactions with great discussions of life in North Korea, how they are treated by S Koreans, etc.

The original "x reacts" were pretty interesting. Such as kids react to the original game boy. It's an interesting perspective on how current generations view stuff that ppl my age grew up on. Besides making you feel old, it's an insight at how fast technology has progressed in the last couple decades.

I wouldn't mind so much if the reactions were more genuine. Most of the time, the reactions are spoon-fed to the people on camera, or, assuming they did pull random people off the street, cherrypicked to push a story that viewers will outrage over (like you said, "kids today are so dumb!").
If you were to pull a room of 100 kids together, someone would know what an NES was, and have a positive reaction to it, but instead the people behind the camera want us to get upset because "no one likes our childhoods" anymore.

There was one that was like "little kids react to really old computers" and it was, exactly as the title said, children reacting to old computers (like the big, beige 80s ones.) The kids couldn't find the on switch because it was on the bottom in the back, then they couldn't figure out how to add 2+2 because you had to type "PRINT" beforehand. Some were talking abou how the screen only had 2 colors, green and black. I mean, they ere 5-6ish and how would they be expected to know how to use computers from 30 years before they were born? But of course, everyone in the comments talking about how kids today are stupid and too used to technology.

HERO, a Terraria YouTuber, was one of a few people who got early access to the 1.3 update. This was supposed to be the last update the main developer worked on, so it was kind of a big deal.
First few minutes of the video, starts complaining about "sound issues." Spends 10 minutes "fixing" until watcher count hits 10,000. Then spends the rest of the video ranting, not even reaching the new gear, just jumping up and down on a platform while he spouts shit about the game, his community, and the developers.
Link to the full stream As a side note, I don't think he's done any more videos since.

Nope, he's alive and well; his fan base is mostly comprised of children who don't really understand how ad revenue works.
He did a lot of shady stuff too, such as adding an item in his wiki (which is a whole level of advertising bullshit in itself) which was "only available if you subbed to him".
Man, what a douche.
I would rather have watched Yrimir, even without talking.

Not a fan of her at all, and she obviously didn't speak in a responsible way in that video, but she didn't "literally" say that. She mentioned how she "didn't want to kill people" even with all the frustration she showed because of the portion of people who actually are informed on these issues yet not taking responsibility for their actions that cause them.

I should add that when she criticizes people's diets, it always, ALWAYS 1) girls, and 2) girls who look better than her. She is insecure about herself, she is insecure about her looks and her age. There is absolutely nothing monumental about her body "achievements" other than, well... Being thin. She has no muscle on her.
Notice that none of those diets that she criticizes is a guy, or an ugly girl, or someone her she or older. It just proves how insecure she is.
Have you seen her workout videos? I would have crushed her, back when I still carried an excess of 50 pounds. I was curling 25 in each arm, I was doing pull-ups, I was doing barbell squats. Was I fat? Yes. are there girls who lifted/still lift more than me? Of course. But I had muscle, and worked hard for it. Freelee's workouts, oh my god how stupid was that? She had no strength! she calls that an achievement? You have people who start their first day in the gym who can do 10 times what she was doing, she could hardly lift 10 pounds over her head. Being skinny is not something people go for when they're really going after true health and good form but that's the message she has sent for years
What she thinks is muscle, is actually the tendons popping out from her arms.
Especially that girl that sued her a year or so again, what was her name again? Anyway, that girl is actually fit. She looks healthy, she has great form, and she has muscle - she's strong! And freelee criticized the shit out of her, even lost a court case over it, because she's jealous.

Oh I think you're talking about Kayla Itsines, the one who sued her. She's fit as fuck but she's also had some legal trouble, mostly regarding that food guide/meal plan whatever that if you followed her workout plan and meal plan together it basically had you doing some crazy HIIT workouts on only like 1200 cals a day, which is so not enough for someone that active. But yeah, Freelee is insane. Any legitimate points she has about veganism get lots in the crazy.
spaghatta111 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 13:12:36 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I agree, 1200 cals is a stupid low number for being an active person
But, I have a feeling that it's not that accurate anyway. Unless you use a food scale for every food you eat (most do not, Kayla probably doesn't either) then your calorie count is going to be wayyyy off. She, and most of the people following her advice, are likely eating more like 1500-1600 a day when they think it's 1200
To me, freelee got in trouble and lost in court, all because she was jealous of Kayla Itsines.
She tried to pretend like she was being "silenced," she tried to make it out like the court didn't like veganism and that they were siding with her for eating meat, but in reality, she slandered people on the internet, and you can't do that. And it was all in the name of being jealous of a younger, more attractive woman, with a successful business.

natlesia ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 16:28:42 on February 18, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Sure, it's lots of reasons. I was on and off vegetarian and for years for ethical (animal rights) reasons and knew that one day I would eventually go down that route, but had never set a timeline for that. I was also always interested in vegan cooking and often would just cook vegan for myself at home since it always ended up being cheaper to do so, also creatively I just enjoyed vegan cooking better. Beyond that, I feel strongly that it is much better for the environment to eat plant based since so much water, grain and pollution goes into or comes from meat production. The final and probably the reason that tipped the scales so I would go vegan was finding out my mom had diabetes. For context, I am overweight and have been for years. I've always had trouble with binge eating and overeating, even though I lead an active lifestyle I always found it hard to eat well consistently. My parents are both obese and on my mom's side of the family they all are as well. Her parents are also diabetic. My mom is just generally a crazy unhealthy person at 50, needed a double knee replacement soon, and I never wanted to get to that point. So I decided to finally become vegan since I knew I ate way better when I did eat vegan. I started last summer and feel amazing. At first I definitely struggled to eat well, but over time it's gotten easier and easier to eat well, and now I'm growing to love healthy plant based eating more everyday. I've started to lose weight and tone up a bit, but I still have a ways to go. It's only been 7 months now but I'm excited at where I'm headed. Veganism is a lifestyle that suits what I want to achieve and what I believe in, and since I think that money talks, I'd rather put my money towards a diet that makes me feel good inside and out.

I don't mind the occasional video game console crash test video. It can be fun to see what console can take the most abuse. Also cross comparing videos to see if there is a common set of results. (The GameCube is one seriously tough machine.)
However, videos where you have idiots who wait hours in line at a product launch. Just for them to rip it out of the box outside the store and repeatedly throw the thing on the ground/sidewalk/parking lot just because they can. Those videos kinda tick me off since there was likely someone who really wanted one and wasn't able to get one. Yet there is this person trashing one for no other reason than because they can, and the views of course. It's even likely they will make back what they spent in just the ad revenue on the video alone.

I saw one video (don't remember the name of the channel) where 3 guys put a few large chunks of dry ice into a pool, and they threw a brand new (fresh out the box) PS4/Uncharted 4 bundle into the pool. It's like, why ruin a perfectly good $350 gaming system by tossing it into a pool? Just do a giveaway for fucks sake. There are tons of people who can't afford PS4s and would love to have one, and here these assholes are, just throwing it into a pool for views. It made me incredibly angry at the stupidity and pointlessness of it all.

Having a ton of muscle or fat makes it more difficult for your stomach to expand and hold more food. Skinny people don't have that level of resistance and so their stomachs can expand into the great beyond.

Skippy62able (LA Beast) is another good one, he's hilarious. My absolute favorite video is his Crystal Pepsi challenge. When he cracks the lid, drinks it, and vomits, all he says is "It smells like grandpa's nut sack!"
Or his gallon Tabasco challenge that ended with him violently crapping and having a 5 gallon bucket of milk poured over him.

Family vloggers. Yes, let's exploit our children's privacy for views!!! Not even the same as childhood actors because that shit is highly regulated. These people will post anything for views. Their kids first poop, slicing their lips open, almost drowning in a tub, falling off tall surfaces etc. it's disgusting and I hope these poor babies don't get bullied because of it. But hey, if their parents are racking in the $$$ and can buy a million dollar mansion...

I hate the ones where they're obviously teenagers or pre-teens who don't want to be involved and/or are embarrassed by whatever stupid thing is on the video. It's okay if you post a video of your cute kids, say, in a plane for the first time looking at the sky, or your son's first home run in baseball, or whatever. But don't endlessly churn out videos where the kids are always there or where you do cruel/embarrassing shit to them. I can guarantee you that even if your 5-year-old daughter likes poop jokes and seeing herself on the Internet now, she's not going to be happy when she's 16 that you posted a video of her looking at her poop and commentating on it.

The Marina Joyce incident.
When fans pulled a ridiculous conspiracy theory out of their asses by overthinking things (believing her to be in ISIS custody, being forced to make videos) and were clearly comcerned for her safety, instead of dispelling those concerns or at the very least ignoring them she decided to go along with it and post sketchy shit so she could ride the story for extra publicity.
A fan had managed to figure out a sneaky way of asking her if she was okay on twitter without any hypothetical captors noticing. They posted a tweet and asked her to 'like' it (or whatever the twitter equivalent is) if she was in danger. She 'liked' it.
She posted a very dodgy looking tweet telling people to come meet her at a specific location at some strange but specific time and to bring as many of their friends as possible. Obviously knowing that it would look like a terrorist attack with all the drama going on.
She also posted a video of herself hiding in a bush at night whispering things to the camera like "they're coming for me" and "I think they've found me".
After she gained all the publicity she wanted, she swiftly ended the conspiracy by basically saying "I'm okay guys, what are you all so worried about? lol"
Pretty scummy in my opinion and I'm glad her channel's losing subs now.

Luke Cutforth made a video on her. Apparently, she lives with her mom and has severe mental problems
Arstulex ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 18:21:24 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Maybe she does, but what she did was pretty damn well calculated for somebody with mental problems.
People came to the far-fetched conclusion that she was kidnapped based on extremely minor, subtle and sometimes flawed details (a jingling sound being heard that people decided were chains on her foot, despite there being numerous other explanations like jewelry. People mistaking standard window blinds for metal bars on her windows).
It was only until after everyone had latched on to this conspiracy theory that she started to actually do strange things.
It was quite obviously a publicity stunt to garner attention, despite any possible mental illnesses or drug addictions she might have.
nervehacker ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 23:16:38 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I respectfully disagree. If you watch her older videos, she was behaving strangely well before the controversy started, and she used to have roommates before moving back in with her mom, probably due to her illness. I worked with schizophrenic and psychotic patients during college (I'm a psych major) and these and many other conditions do not affect their intellectual capabilities. She probably put hints in her gideos because she genuinely believed she was being persecuted.
Arstulex ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 03:24:34 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
She acted strangely, sure, hence the conspiracy theory in the first place. But not as outrageously strange as recording videos of herself hiding in a bush at night and saying "Don't come here, it's a set up!" after having just announced a 'fan meetup' on twitter in the middle of the night.
Her regular strangeness (for whatever ever reason that may be) attracted the attention of theorists who over-analysed things and she took the opportunity to ride the story for some publicity.
http://samsu.ng/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/joyce-tweet.jpg That's the tweet she posted. (Too lazy to find a source for this detail, but this was apparently the location of an existing ISIS attack threat at the time).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqdQLnf7e3Q That's the video of her saying "it's a setup, don't come" whilst hiding outside.
One would think this would be a somewhat regular occurrence if it were due to some type of mental illness, as opposed to a one-off thing.
One could also easily argue that the drug abuse/mental illness explanation only exists because it's much easier (and much more likely to be forgiven by fans) to say "sorry guys, I've been suffering from problems with X or Y" than it is to admit you pulled a publicity stunt for attention and things went too far.
Obviously there's no solid evidence either way, but from what I can see it looks like a publicity stunt that went further than she was expecting. Not exactly an uncommon belief either, and it shows in the decrease in her viewership ever since.
nervehacker ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:30:02 on February 16, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I can understand why one would think that - it makes sense. However, people suffering from those illnesses will often have breakdowns from time to time. Also, it was another youtuber that discusses her illness, one that is not even close friends with her, so I am tempted to believe it was one of the crisis rather than a publicity stunt.

It's certainly not the worst thing a YouTuber has done (especially in comparison to a lot of the examples in this thread), but I always think of that time a few years ago when Ingrid Nilsen made a "embrace your imperfections" video that turned into a video promoting plastic surgery (sponsored by an actual plastic surgeon at that), knowing her audience were teenage girls.
She seems to have matured since then (especially since coming out) and I assume she wouldn't make a video like that now, but I always think of it every time I see her.

Honestly, it creeps me out how so many makeup and beauty YouTubers shill for plastic surgery when their audiences are largely young girls. They're all like "Well, I just felt like getting lip fillers because for me they just make me feel prettier :)" Okay, but like... why do they make you feel prettier...? Do they not want to even think about that concept for even a minute? So many of them talk about loving yourself and accepting yourself and then get all kinds of surgeries like it's no big deal and idk, it's just a bit icky to me how they tend to act like it's comparable to painting your nails.

I hate youtubers who ask people to like and subscribe before the fucking video starts. Thats like asking a chef to rate your dish 10/10 before they've even tried it.
And don't even get me started on the obnoxious ass youtubers who repeat themselves so many times to add minutes onto the video. Faze Rug for example;
"Hey guys so today we're going to go snowboarding and I wanted to do this because I saw it on Twitter. Speaking of, you can follow my social medias in the description and make sure you subscribe. So yeah, since I saw it on Twitter, I'm gonna go snowboarding. I haven't snowboarded before so I'm really excited that I'm going to start snowboarding. I'm going to snowboard because I saw it online and you guys really wanted me to go snowboarding so I'm going to go snowboarding."
So the video ends up to being 20 minutes long

Extremely fake prank videos. There's this one especially cancerous guy named PrankInvasion who basically "pranks" a bunch of random girls on the street to make out with him (luckily however all the girls are extremely conventionally attractive and let him grab their asses!! Totally legitimate!!). That's bad enough but what also really irks me is that he reckons he's so good-looking and desirable that women WANT to make out with him. Honestly he's like a 4/10 in the looks department in my opinion. Not sure why I picked him out in particular in a sea of terrible "pranksters" on YouTube but anyways.
There's a slew of trash-quality content on YouTube what with the clickbait culture that exists there and the fact that ANYONE can upload. I'd say literally 99% of the videos on YouTube is just random crap and 1% is stuff actually made by quality content creators.

I can chime in a terrible experience:
My 2 year old is fanatic about Peppa Pig. Mean youtubers upload random Peppa episodes, but they create a fake thumbnail showing something fantastic that never happened in any episode at all (new characters, costumes, elements, things like this)
My daughter proceeds to get desperate wanting that exact episode that is on the thumbnail... which does not exist.
And I become the world's worst father for not playing back the damn episode for her.

But she asked to watch it so I'm like whatever you want, dear.

It amazes me how simply being gay is some people's identity in the same way that most people identify themselves by their favorite hobby.
For example, folks that play a lot of video games may identify themselves as "gamers." People who run a lot may identify themselves as "runners."
Yet, straight people do not identify themselves as "straight." But tons of gay people will be sure to let you know they're gay and don't worry, you'll never forget, because it's all they'll talk about.

Yeah this all pretty much hits the nail on the head for me. Sexuality (and gender as well) are important and influential parts of all of us. But when it's the ONLY thing you talk about it's fucking annoying. I don't want to hear how many girls your fucked. I don't want to hear the phrase "as a gay man" preceding every sentence, I don't want to always hear about why as a transgender person you're persecuted and everyone hates you.
No. Maybe if you weren't always bringing it up (any of the above) people would be more inclined to like you and talk to you. And before I get hate for this, literally half of my family is gay or part of the LGBTQ community. I love them all and in no way do I find their gender or sexuality a problem. It's when people make it the sole pillar of their life it just becomes obnoxious. Akin to "can I teach you about my lord and savior?" Coming up every other breath.
People are multifaceted and complex individuals, and putting them in this tiny box whether by their own means or others is wrong for everyone.

Ginnipe ยท 15 points ยท Posted at 00:47:12 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think you're just misunderstanding my intent. I have no issue all with people talking about their relationships and I very much encourage people who feel that they are locked in their internal closet to just be more open and accept who they are.
The line gets crossed somewhere though where it can sometimes become what appears to be the sole pillar of their existence. As I stated above, I don't want to hear how many girls some dude slept with all the time. But we all know a guy that does this and it's infuriating. But sometimes people think that just because they are part of the LGBTQ community they have a pass on that and just solely talk about their sexuality or gender. It's obnoxious no matter your sexuality or gender. I understand that part of that helps them accept who they are, and I'm fine with that. It's just that sometimes that obnoxious line gets crossed and it because insufferable.
CheezitBaron ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 05:45:01 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think we can give people who just came out of the closet a couple years of identifying as SO GAY, because they pretty much have to reallign everything in their life with this new part of their identity. It takes a while, and is sort of the same thing that any person away from home will do when they restructure their belief system, be it political party, race, or sexual orientation. That's what college is for (or the equivalent for those who don't go to college).
But yes, after that, being around someone who brings every detail of life back to BECAUSE I AM GAY is super annoying. I had a coworker and friend do this when he came out in his 40s. Every conversation had to be through the lens of gay vs straight, men vs women. I had to wrangle him back from the stupidest shit sometimes.

Yes, exactly that. We expect people to grow into a multi-faceted identity as adults, and when someone can only related to things in regard to one part of who they are, well. You wonder if there's anything else about them. Also, no one wants to have the same conversation all. the. time. Plus, goddamn, don't have penis desk toys at work.

Whenever someone gives this side of the argument I usually show this clip from Key and Peele that really nails it on the issue. Link
It's not exactly the spectrum of what this conversation is over but it shows basically what's going on. There's talking about your sexuality plainly like a normal person and then there is just parading it around for attention to show of how different you are to everyone else.

I don't know a lot of gay people who actually do this. The select few who do are usually generally pretty immature and mostly use it as a mechanism to cope with living in a homophobic environment. On top of that, many gay communities become very insular over time (thanks to the aforementioned homophobic environment), so it kind of becomes the norm to talk about "gay stuff" all the time if you're super active within a community and they become your primary friend group.

Most gay/queer people grow up with their family and friends and random strangers and politicians constantly making a big deal about the fact that they're not straight. Look at any news story about a gay person - they're always identified as gay actor/politican/scientist/whatever. When they get interviewed, it's about gay identity and what they think about gay issues, etc.
Is it really surprising that gay people then get kind of hung up about it?
It's starting to get better - culturally, the US is giving less and less of a shit but the time when a lot of these youtubers grew up, coming out was still a big, sometimes dangerous deal. Hell, it still is in parts of the US. When the rest of us start not caring, I expect that most gay/queer people will give less of a crap about it too.

Some people do this because society tells them it's the only part of their identity that matters. They do it for the same reason many of us LGBTQ+ people choose not to come out at all: having a non-normative identity can define the way other people see you.
Straight people don't do this because heterosexuality is the norm in society. They don't have to tell people they're straight because it's assumed, and being straight doesn't define their experiences.
But that's just my opinion based on personal experience.

If you're talking about how much heterosexual intercourse you have, you are reinforcing your straightness. Just because you're accustomed to hearing it, doesn't mean it's not the same type of flaunting your sexuality.

Meh, I've known quite a few gay people, and none were that bad. Maybe the occasional joke here or there ("go straight at this intersection", "I can't", "fuck off"), but that's it. It's just easier to notice the flamboyant walking stereotype than you're average gay dude.

For every queer person who's open about their sexuality, there are many, many more who aren't. Many are loud and out because other wise they're shut into a closet.
It's ok to find it annoying. But if someone says "I'm gay" or "I'm bi", don't start rolling your eyes.

Imagine living years not being able to talk about your sexuality out of fear of being rejected or even worse, beaten and abused and then when you do being told you're annoying and making it your entire identity.
Straight people are everywhere and constantly talking about their relationships, gay people have exactly that same entitlement.

Thank god it wasn't just me that was thinking this way. I'm bi, so my experience is a little different, but I didn't come out properly until I was 19 and I grew up listening to everyone talking casually about their sexuality and feeling completely isolated because I had a part of my identity I had to hide.
Even now if I mention crushes on someone of the same sex I get nervous or I'm met with the "you always talk about your sexuality!" rhetoric. Yeah, no shit, I kept it a secret for 19 years and I'm not doing it anymore.

A lot of flamboyantly gay dudes in my honest experience are just annoying as hell people. It has nothing to do with them being gay and everything to do with them just being annoying insufferable crybabies. But if I saw anything negative it's automatically I hate gay people. You can just be an annoying person talking about shit nobody can relate to or cares about.

I understand, it just seems a little weird that you'll acknowledge that this has 'nothing to do with them being gay' but also specifically flag up gay dudes as the problem here? As someone that's been working in a warehouse the last few weeks, straight dudes can be just as (if not WAY MORE) obnoxious when it comes to constantly talking about sex. Which just leads me to believe this has nothing to do specifically with being gay, so while I don't think you're homophobic I can see it being perceived that way when you say "A lot of gay dudes are annoying people". Maybe they're just... people? I'd feel the same way if you were talking about Asians or jewish people.

because straight is viewed as "normal" and you're automatically assumed straight so really there's no need to even mention it. plus there's an aspect to gay culture and specifically gay history and things like that (voguing, clubs, slang and fashion styles, tragic history as well) that simply does not exist for straight people as they've never had to even think about or had their sexuality challenged. I don't know why people are so hostile for people owning something that most people still put others down for and that people are still being murdered over. ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ gay pride 4ever sorry if it annoys you but just being annoyed someone else is happy for being who they are seems like a better side of the fence than people ridiculously hating on you for being who you are

I think it also largely have to do with the way LGBT and minorities are sometimes treated. If you were gay in middle school, that was all you were. people dismissed your opinions "their gay so who cares what they think about the superbowl." It was the one insult people gave to you. You spend a lot of time being hyperaware of it. So it becomes your identity.

I understand this argument, but the difference is that being straight is still very much the assumed norm. Watch adverts on television for example. While it seems reductive to define your entire identity by your sexuality (and I know a lot of gay people who feel the same), it makes you clearly visible as such to other people of the same orientation, something which is especially desirable in areas where being homosexual can put you at risk of physical violence.

I'm not gay but from what I observed, gay is both a sexual orientation and a lifestyle/culture. Some people choose to partake in the culture more than others is all. Just like gaming is. For example, I like playing video games a lot (every day) but I don't really like the gamer culture, which I define as going to cons, wearing game related apparel, buying game related merchandising and generally fanning out over the rumors of new releases etc. I just play games and watch them on twitch, it's more something i do while others it's a big part of their lives. People wouldn't even know I am gamer because I don't care to talk about it irl.
Same with gay culture, there's parades, neighborhoods, bars, specific stores that cater to the gay community, etc. But you don't have to partake in any of that to actually be gay, you just have to prefer the same sex.
I feel like both are valid positions to have because it's something that makes them feel happy. If it's not meant for you then don't watch it. It's not like they're tricking people, people who want to watch gay shit watch their videos and are happy.

This is likely due to the fact that many LGBTQ people kept it hidden for a while. Transitioning into being "out" has specific stages a lot of times, one of them being prioritizing it as an identity before they mellow out.

Obviously being memorable only because of your sexuality is pretty lame, but to give some context it's because most people who are gay feel alienated from the rest of the world until they work out who they are.
A big part of who you are is your romantic and sexual desires.
Most people don't have to work it out, or get persecuted because of it. As a result in order to feel like they are ok, that they aren't totally strange and wrong, many anchor their identity to their sexuality. It gives you people who went through what you went through, films that depict your experiences, music that they play at clubs that welcome and accept you.
I don't think any of this is very conscious- it's just a way of creating a feeling of belonging.
Especially as a teen people often only talk to you about gay things. You come out and girls want you to go shopping with them and recommend how to wear their hair.
I largely grew out of it but when you're young it takes most people a lot of courage and effort to come out - it's natural to be a big part of their identity- it's probably the bravest thing they have ever done.
Thanks for listening - love those people for just being them and most will naturally grow out of it.

I'm queer, and I stay away from the "queer culture" because it has all the worst qualities of a fandom (well, also arguably the best, but still). But there's a reason for that, and you know it. A prosecuted minority needs to organize into a subculture, it's a survival strategy. Straight people don't identify as straight because society doesn't remind them of their sexuality in a negative way every day. When "gay", or "transgender", or other things like that are de-stigmatized and become just another neutral quality, there will be no need for a queer subculture. By that moment we'll see conservative politicians talking about how marriage equality is a traditional value :)

People identify themselves with what they do that not a majority of people do. It doesn't make you different from anyone to be straight; most people are. It does make you different to be gay, so it's something worth talking about (at least in our current time period where it's still not accepted as normal, but not shameful anymore). Like in your example, people identify themselves as gamers and runners because not a majority of people game or run as a hobby.

I'm bi but even people Ir've known for years don't tend to know. I'm not hiding it, I live in a very liberal country, it just doesn't come up that often and I don't tend to hit on people a lot. Most people just assume I'm straight and why would I care if they're wrong about that?
I hate it when I meet men and women who, within 5 minutes of conversation, for no good reason, I know about that they're gay or bi. I'm not saying like they mention their same-sex partner by a gendered pronoun, I mean that every asset of their personality oozes their sexuality.
I consider myself a pretty normal guy who sometimes likes to suck dick. I don't feel like making that small a part of my life into a major facet of my personality. I have bigger issues to deal with.

I've literally never in my life had someone go out of their way to tell me they were gay. Perhaps you feel like things such as talking with a lisp and other stereotypical gay indicators are a form of signaling and that therefore, anyone who is stereotypically gay is somehow "rubbing your face in it".
Perhaps you're just so emotionally reactive to the notion of gayness that those rare instances in which someone did mention being gay have heightened significance in your mind.
Either way, I have a ridiculously hard time believing your premise. On the flip side, if I had a nickel for Everytime someone said "no homo", I would have many, many nickels.

People don't like to hear it but there were so many younger trans people in my youth group who had no other defining anything other than being trans. Sorry but I wanna talk about life, not endlessly rehash the same transition topics over and over again. I didn't ask about your transition, literally everyone here is trans, I asked about you! It's similar to when some gay kids go full rainbow mode, it's just as obnoxious.

Again, being gay is a big part of a person's identity and something that people are still killed for. People are automatically assumed to be straight, and being gay is seen as a big deal by people who hate them. It's nothing like being a twat about smoking weed.

Yeah, I get that it can be kind of excessive if 100% of their content is based on their sexuality, and I generally believe that if that's the most interesting thing about you, you're not an interesting person. That said, there's a certain place for videos that are explicitly about aspects of being gay. In particular, growing up gay and going through adolescence can be an isolating experience, and it can be really important for closeted kids or those who simply have no gay friends to feel some small connection to the community and hear others like them talk about how they deal with similar situations.

I guess you've never heard of toy review and unboxing channels hosted by kids then. They are millionaires before they even turn 10.
They then get invited by Ellen to her show and become even more famous and rich.

Nobody becomes a millionaire or even start careers by themselves.
A TV show host doesn't become a millionaire because he made the entire show by himself, he has an entire army of stage crew, producers, directors, writers, musicians, make up, assistants, interns etc.
A kid hosting a youtube channel show, with the help of parents is exactly the same. That kid's going to have more money and live a better life than most humans on earth.

I'm not going to link my channel, simply because I have not told that story or even made it public, and it's something I want to actually address on my channel instead of "coming out" with it in a random reddit thread. I don't know how else to prove it to you. It might be incorrect to say I "make a living" off it though, as I still live with my parents, but I pay for my own shit and don't have a second job nor do I go to school. My income is an average of 800-1000 USD a month.

As for being able to drop at 15? I'm honestly not sure about that. I know that minors are required to attend school, but there are certain stipulations that would allow them not to.

Because society allows them to do so. I discourage people from helping them.
I really dont want to sound rude but if your understanding of what entertainment is tits you have low standarts.
If I need to compare the same type of content, there are woman who take dicks up their every single existing hole because they need to earn money to keep living. Those people deserve the money. Woman on reddit who show tits while being awkward or straight up boring do not deserve the money they are getting.

This is 90% of r/ASMR vids.
Now, you don't actually need visual...stimulus...to get the ASMR, and most of the content for it relies on pure audio.
But, there are a ton of girls who've figured out it's a great way to feel sexy with plausible deniability, and get attention (of course!), so, natch, most of the vids that make it to the top are 19-year-olds on eighteen inches of makeup with their tits pushed up to their chin, leeeeeaning over a camera.

I think Gwengwiz is the worst. She wears absurdly revealing clothes, but the camera cuts off before the cleavage, then the thumbnail is always just her boobs which don't even appear in the video. And she does ''gf roleplay'' videos which are totally not at all how real people talk. (she is also gay if any men are thinking about trying to hit on her through the comments.)

I personally like VisualSounds1 because is the first channel I ever found and has some of my favourites, although I haven't seen most of the lastest videos cause Harley Queen make-up and such. What we just mentioned. This was my first ASMR video and still love it.
ASMRrequest is my favourite ever because of all the effort, setting up, acting on the role plays and variety. I love love her roleplays. Departure and any of the roleplays are incredible for me. Sadly she hasn't been uploading much lately.
And lastly... well, Ephmeral Rift, because it's quite different. It's true that I've only seen some, like The Repairman, but those are the channels I'm suscribed to and watch before going to sleep or stressed.
Any suggestions would be gladly appreciated.

And I agree, and what some people are missing is that sometimes being genuine leads to speak in a roundabout manner, or not really saying anything at all. He's putting his thoughts out there as he has them, and saying what comes to his head and heart. He's completely genuine about almost everything. I love that about him.

why? it's a legitimate career path now and youtube is doing an absolute shit job of making sure these careers are safe and sustainable.
just because you still don't see youtube as a real job doesn't mean it should be a fuckin wild wild west out there for creators. how would you feel if your manager fucked around with your job and how you made money on the regular? they should fight for everything that they need to fight for, however they can

He never said anything about them not having real jobs or anything like that. Quit making things up.
All he said was that those 3 videos that were made were pointless, and they were. Nothing was really even said in ANY of those videos. GradeAUnderA went over all 3 of them an explained the BS in all of them.

Not really. I watched part of a new video the other day and it was literal word vomit for 10 minutes. His humor caters specifically to younger kids, definitely. I thought, wow why the fuck do people watch this, maybe this video was just one off. So I go to watch another one. Same shit.
I know people will get mad at me for this since he has 50 million subscribers, but he doesn't release quality content. He releases "THIS WAS A HORRIBLE IDEA" click bait videos lately, where he talks about something inane and says some jokes that you can only like if youre a young kid or a stunted adult.

I'm with you blud - watching YouTubers in general seems to be the preserve of manchildren these days. I've tried to get into it but 80% of them are just inane, lowest common denominator doss cunts. I'm 26 btw...

Thank you! Yep, exact same boat as you. I've only really been watching stand up comedy, or technical channels in hobbies I'm into, and those have 30,000 views while some guy throws iPhones off a roof and get 10 million views per phone.
I guess it's just indicative of the viewership. I hate to sound even remotely close to /r/iamverysmart material, but if you're an adult, you can clearly see that, exactly as you said, they cater to the lowest common denominator, either children, or idiots. I mean, I can understand watching one video and being entertained for a few minutes, but how about the "1000 degree knife EXPERIMENT", where the knife is neither 1000, nor is it an experiment. How does every single one of those hundred identical videos have millions of views other than the viewers are little children or brain dead?

Judging from the very limited experience of Pewdiepie I've had, what he's done has aged his content up with his audience. So now he pretends to be edgy as fuck, since those who first started watching him are now like 3 years older.

At least that's the kinda content they usually make. Like they don't try to act above it. I grew to hate GradeAunderA for getting involved in the YouTube drama whole consistently saying he didn't want to get into drama because he was so above it. Then he made like five videos about drama and got really annoying really fast. His first video calling out YouTube was fine, but he saw the attention and ran with it which like cool fine, sure. But at least own up to it and don't pretend you're not embracing the drama.

I believe they are suggesting that while some youtubers may express these views and are contributing to the analysis of modern culture through their perception, others are simply pandering to a market (in this case the neo-conservative alt-right) for easy views and clicks.
People like having their own opinion repeated to them. Plenty of youtubers are more than happy to fill that gap with low-effort, low-thought videos that do nothing but address the surface of the problems and contain the buzzwords their target demographic wants to hear.
That second paragraph is universal. Every political spectrum is guilty of it. It takes effort to create videos that dig down into the heart of your ideology and the ones that do often go unappreciated compared to weekly updates paraphrasing popular posts from reddit, or tumblr, or 4chan, or whatever social media is most heavily utilised by your target demographic.
That behaviour is the pathetic part. The laziness. And in some cases, the hypocrisy. People are more than happy to pretend to hold an ideology for money. There are sock puppet accounts on reddit paid for by corporations or governments, there are respected journalists and news anchors whose opinions contradict each other depending on who they are talking to, and you can be damn sure there are youtubers who are arguing a viewpoint they do not really believe in because it gets them views, and clicks, and ultimately, money.
Heck, there are some people who will argue a point they don't agree with just to be contrarian, because they enjoy arguments.
And that's the behaviour I really think that Kaiserbeamz is trying to call pathetic: Lazy, potentially hypocritical, pandering. The fact they called out anti-SJW specifically is only because they are currently the more noticeable panderers on youtube.
HonoluluLion ยท -1 points ยท Posted at 11:42:25 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think the reason they're doing it so much now is because there's endless cringey SJW content being made, whether it be from celebrities, corporations or other YouTubers and A LOT of people are starting to get really turned off by it lol a girl I went to highschool with who was the worst embodiment of the "angry snowflake feminist" stereotype even went on a twitter rant about SJW's, I didn't read through it all but it made me do the "single exhale chuckle" because I thought to myself if SHE is ranting about sjw's something must really be out of hand lol. Now obviously, that proves absofuckinglutely nothing lol but it took me aback and I'm starting to see lots of people feel the same way whether it's right or wrong, just an observation.
Now i must say I can't really get mad at YouTubers for going after low hanging fruit no matter what the subject is because now to not get fucked over by YouTube's new algorithm you HAVE to keep content coming or else your subscribers will start missing your videos in their subscription box and they'll stop suggesting you on other folks videos. Making deep philosophical videos takes a long time to research, shoot, edit and upload, and that just isn't sustainable for a one man crew to do. That's why I don't mind when some of my favorite YouTubers do a vlog or a chill video once in a while because pumping out those high-quality videos is hard as fuck to do haha.
So the real answer is anyone who panders to their audience? I 100% understand that take on it and actually respect that opinion but I gotta disagree, because if your fans aren't entertained then you're not getting views which means you've hurt your own pockets by not giving the fans/viewers what they want and I can't expect a YouTuber to hurt their own pocketbooks just so people who disagree with their opinions regardless find their content slightly more tasteful because at the end of the day I get to watch their content for $0.00. But I do agree with you that it's super fucking lame when people spout shit they don't actually believe in or pander to an audience they aren't even a part of for views and money but that's just become part of our world now that going viral is so damn profitable and streamlined with the help of every social media app.
I hope nothing I wrote came off as rude, I always have a hard time communicating my actual tone and intentions over Reddit and people always think you have the absolute worst intentions lol
EDIT: why the down votes?

Hmm. I can understand where you are coming from. "Gotta make a living" is a convincing argument, and you're right, youtube is a rigged game at the moment rewarding content makers who can make weekly, 10 minute videos regardless of quality.
On the other hand I think that perhaps if a channel isn't financially viable when it puts out quality content, maybe it should only stay a hobby. Especially when there are so many other ways for creators to make money nowadays besides youtube revenue.
A vlog once a week is hardly the end of the world, but when it becomes a daily vlog, or if its the only content a channel puts out, that's where it starts to become a bit pitiable, in my mind at least.
Anyway, at least we understand each other.

IDK, It seems like a perfectly healthy coping mechanism. It not only allows them to feel heard, but also lets them hear others feedback, and hell, if they can make some cash doing it, why the hell hate them for it.
(Not a fan, just seems perfectly healthy as a coping mechanism - logically think through the issue, talk it out, post it and feel heard, etc)

An annoying youtuber who was vegan for years now is banking on the fact that now he's not vegan. So all his videos are "WATCH A VEGAN EAT A SAUSAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS!!!!" and it's incredibly annoying. Worse that the reason he stopped being vegan was simply because he said he was worried about his health... and then he goes and starts eating pizza and shit. Lol. Okay.

Things on YouTube worth watching:
Crash course- not the most in-depth, but solid, bingeable videos about important educational topics. Teachers even assign it as homework sometimes
every frame a painting if you're a movies guy
Vsauce- any/all of their stuff
mommy comedy is stupidly underrated but they put a lot of tlc into their content
ASAPScience, minutephysics and numberphile are neat educational shows
a howto on like anything you could dream of. Makeup girls are super helpful if you're still trying to learn about that or if you have a daughter who is
A huge swath of gamers if you're into that (I like Polygon but they're not for everyone)
Singers like Madilyn Bailey or Sam Tsui it's a whole clique but they're all fun
Probably a ton of stuff I'm leaving out but yeah some youtubers are genuinely trying to make good content and serve their fans to keep them coming back. The vlog brothers, creators of crash course, vidcon and project4awesome, are heroes in my eyes because of this.

I don't feel like that was them capitalizing off of Amanda Todd's suicide. This video was made before when they had really expanded (only 1 channel and the two kids react and teens react series). The tone of the video felt serious and seemed genuine. It felt like the Fine Brothers genuinely wanted to have a discussion between these teens (and their viewers) about bullying and suicide.
I remember watching the video when the whole Amanda Todd fiasco was a thing on the internet. I remember genuinely connecting with the video. So what you said isn't really a good criticism of the Fine Brothers.

Yeah, with the whole React World controversy, once the backlash happened, they had ended React World, removed their trademark application, and admitted that they were wrong and apologized.
Also, I understand not liking their React series, but it's not like the worst thing in the world. They only show portions of the videos, the video is centered on the reactions rather than the videos, and they ask permission of the creators first before doing it. It's not something people should be getting worked up about.
ChaoticMidget ยท 53 points ยท Posted at 00:51:51 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I never understood why people got upset with this. It's no different than just hosting a discussion about suicide or cyberbullying in general. The fact that there's a name attached to it doesn't grossly alter the content.
One can argue they shouldn't have put up ads to financially benefit off of the video but there's nothing inherently wrong about asking people of a similar age how they deal with those issues. I find it way better than all the major news networks with 30-40 year olds who pretend like they can understand how high school life works.

The subject matter is perfectly valid. Whether they should have ads on it is another topic.

After the Amanda Todd story broke, they had a Teens React video about it. It's intended to create a discussion about the issue of bullying and suicide, especially in teens online. They cut out the usually upbeat intro, since that would be inappropriate, and even had a warning at the very beginning of the video that the topic is heavy and viewer discretion is advised.
As to the actual video, they have the teens react to the video that Amanda Todd left as a suicide note telling her story. There is not actual footage of any suicide. All it is is a black and white video of a girl, with her face out of the frame, telling her story through a series of cards with the events written on them. Also, when I say react, I don't mean the over the top reactions usually on these types of channels, but that they actually asked the teens questions and fostered a discussion about mental illness, bullying, suicide, etc. the video itself is very well done.
I think the problem some people are having is due to the fact that it is monitozed. I saw someone else say that the video was made before they were a super big channel, so it was probably when they were still trying to pay the bills. (I could be wrong though). They probably forgot to take the ads off when they got more famous later down the line.
TL;DR Fine bros make a video discussing a certain heavy topic and genuinely trying to raise awareness and get people thinking about what they can do in response to depression, bullying, and suicide. The video has ads, and this is the main problem people have.

No it doesn't. Have you watched it? IIIRC the ads have been off from all of their serious videos, this being the prime example. The only thing that can be called an "ad" in that video is the links to http://www.stopbullying.gov/ and http://www.itgetsbetter.org/ , which is laudable. That shit with React World was really really stupid but there's no point hating on them for actually doing something right.

I kind of feel bad for the LA Beast. He tried to transition out of making 'challenge' videos and lost a lot of views. So he just went back to making them, after admitting in many vlogs he doesn't enjoy doing them. And the whole crystal Pepsi thing really went off the rails... Just seems like a guy who's life is out of his control. So now he has to eat light bulbs and tubs of mayonnaise to pay the rent. Maybe I'm misinterpreting the situation, but that's how it seems to me. And it's kinda sad.

Frankly speaking, way too many YouTubers don't realize that they're not popular because of their persona, but because of the content they create. And once you move away from that content, your personality isn't entertaining enough to keep you going on the same level. I'll watch Gordon Ramsay trying to balance a turd on a stick for an hour, while I just don't find James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) entertaining when he's not playing some sort of character (AVGN, Board James).
It requires serious effort to keep people entertained in this flood of content, specially when you're not trying to grab fast views by following the latest trend.

In my country (Philippines), there was a huge typhoon that decimated the capital through massive floods. Hundreds are dead. This YouTube couple posted a video, saying that each 1000 views the video gets, they'll donate 1 peso. People were so outraged that they attracted a ton of hate, and it never went away. The guy in the couple got cancer years later, and people still hated him through his ordeal, thinking that all videos they post about his illness (and asking for donations) are a ploy for attention. It did not help that the girl is a massive toolbag, like asking for donations one week, and then posting about saving up money to buy an iPhone the next week. People thought she was being fake, and the guy is being tagged as the same. Then the guy died and the girl tried to get into showbiz...

When making thumbnails for my movie review videos, I try to grab an image of myself FROM the actual video. Stuckmann's agape mouth in every image is annoying - but he does it for the same reason I do; it works, and it's excellent branding

What I do know is he has built himself a successful business with a huge community and no one that hasn't gone totally apeshit is just going to throw that away.It was a great move. If you watch his channel delete video, which is the only one of his videos I've seen, he does a montage of all the sites that ran the story. Dude just throws out that he's out, and gets more free press than anyone could ever need. Say what you want about him, but he isn't stupid.

My_Name_Is_Declan ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 20:56:04 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
It's not about offensiveness, it's about whether it's FACTUAL.
If pewdiepie says "fans don't come to my house" , is he joking?
If pewdiepie says "I don't do YouTube for the money", is he joking?
That's the problem I have, Pewdiepie can say what he wants but as soon as something he says is negatively received he can immediately pretend that it was all a joke.
Obviously this isn't the case with the neo-nazism but you get what I mean. If all of his content can never be taken seriously, it's not worth watching, it just becomes as bad as the other channels who are click baiting serious topics without any detailed discussion.
TechnoTadhg ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:24:19 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Sure when you don't watch the content you may find it harder to see what is and isn't jokes, such as someone who never saw his content sees a title that is full of clickbait and the thumbnail is too, they would assume he is a clickbait channel but in reality it could be the video is centered around the topic of clickbait on youtube.
It is a sense of humor that some don't get and I do respect that, I just hate the people who don't get what is and isn't a joke but still use it to get tons of views themselves by accusing his jokes of being factual, without asking anyone who does get it, and even if they knew they would take advantage of the fact not everyone else does.
LovelyApplie ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 01:40:02 on February 19, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I've actually been watching PewDiePie for years and recently unsubscribed because of this change. Like the op said, it becomes hard to tell what is a joke or not, and if everything is just satire, why bother watching the video then? His titles and thumbnails are always fake or about something meagre in the video, and just because he acknowledges it and jokes about it, it doesn't make his content suddenly 'genius' like his newer fans love to claim.
When I say I miss the old PewDiePie, it wasn't because of the horror games or the childish screaming, but it was because he seemed like a more wholesome person who really cared a lot about his fan base. In his new video talking about how his show got canceled, he does the brofist at the end and calls his subscribers his bros, which he hasn't done in forever. I found it very disingenuous of him, and it made me sick to see that it took that long, took Disney actually dropping him, for him to actually try to reconnect with the people that made his channel so big, even after he made multiple videos about how he hated the old way he used to make videos, ranting about YouTube, and the comment section.
I only felt that way because I was such a huge fan for a long time. Now it's like he shits on his fans and couldn't care less who watches his videos. If the title, description, and thumbnail has nothing to do with the video, I don't see why bother even watching it. It's like he's just tired of YouTube and doesn't care anymore. Watching his videos now just bring me down.

Either the intent is important, or the result is. You can't have it both ways. If you take PewDiePie's intent as a joke then I could say that asking a guy to kill my wife is a joke too. If the result is important, then PewDiePie is as much responsible for an act of antisemitism and inciting violence as I would be for murder, regardless of the intent in which we made that request.

But the moment someone replies he'll reply back saying "Please check out my channel and subscribe I'll eat anything, it's really funny etc, etc." He'll do that multiple times in the same comment thread, as if once wasn't enough.

The parents of those "kid toy" videos putting their kids into creepy and repetitive situations every video. Kids love toys, but when you spend hundreds/thousands of dollars on them just for them to hit their early teens and never want to see their toys again? It's gonna leave a mark. Bad parenting too, I can only assume that those kids have never had any negative feedback on anything, just so they behave for the videos.

Here in Spain we have a plage of pranksters doing misserable things to the lower classes. We had one guy making a video about wanting to sue a man for punching him because he was "just doing a prank". The man was working and this kid comes up and insults him, and when the worker gets really mad he keeps insulting him to get the reaction he wanted. That guy almost lost his job because a kid wanted to get viral.
And then there was another guy who gave oreos filled with toothpaste to a homeless man and filmed his reaction. Truly disgustung.

VitalyzdTv - Making a video about giving food to homeless people and acting like he cares about them, when you can see him shouting and acting hostile towards them in the video itself.
JoeySalads- Faking social experiments which are actually low-key racist against black people. Also, faking an entire child predator video for views. You know what? All his videos are probably fake.
JoshPalerLin- Giving 100 bucks to a homeless person and then telling him to use that money to buy food for other homeless persons, then filming it and putting on YouTube to earn way more than the 100 bucks he initially gave.
I would link you to those videos but I don't want these assholes to earn anymore money than they already have.

Those idiots who walk around town with automatic looking weapons strapped around bodies just so they can act all righteous when the cops show up, it's fucking rabble-rousing trash being used to piss off reactionaries and the scary thing is it works.

[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:26:54 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Semi-automatic weapons that look like they could be fully automatic.
DarknessRain ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 16:09:19 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I think education can do a bit to decrease the whole uproar that's caused when one sees this type of thing.
The best and cheapest sporting and hunting rifles will be semi automatic versions of regular military rifles, this makes sense because the military of course wants the best most modern stuff, so the civilian rifles that are also modern will naturally look the same.
Second, there actually are fully automatic modern rifles that are legal for a regular civilian to own, ones that were registered before 1986 (about half a million in the US now). Some of these are the scary looking ones that are not too different from today's modern military rifles, including things in the AR and AK family. The reason, in my opinion, that we don't hear as much about fully automatic weapons being used in rampages, is because the people who would put their information on so many forms, jump through that many hoops, and pay that high a price with taxes, usually aren't the type that are inclined to turn to a criminal lifestyle.

I think we have to be cautious with this type of rhetoric. Either a person is doing something wrong or they're not. We wouldn't say a rape victim is a "douchebag for exposing your cleavage and walking around town trying to get raped." People that do provocative things or test extremes put themselves into the canary in the coalmine role. If they want to take away our freedoms they'll go after them first because more of the public will be okay with it. As long as the Westboroughs can spew their hate, I know we still have the first amendment; likewise, as long as these guys can walk around with scary guns, I know we still have the second.

Did you seriously just warn me to "be careful" of my rhetoric then proceed to compare the assholes I'm talking about to legitimate rape victims and true victim blaming? Yes, let's compare calling a YouTuber who's using open-carry to get a reaction out of people in the hopes that the cops will come so they can play the victim card when all they do is make sure their gun is up to code a douche to a victim of rape and legitimate victim blaming. Are you fucking kidding me? What rhetoric are you talking about? Have I suggested taking their guns away? I have zero problem with responsible Americans who've been through a reasonable amount of vetting owning guns (no violent crimes, no history of mental illness etc.) but if you're the type of asshole to strap a rifle across your chest, put on a face mask and walk into a police station while having a buddy film you to make a statement/get views/rabble rouse, you are the exact opposite of responsible and shouldn't have had a gun to begin with. If you need a bunch of neckbeards walking into Chilis with an AR-15 across their chests scaring the shit out of people inside to know there's still a second amendment that's fucking sad and the exact kind of rhetoric that scares the shit out of normal people who normally wouldn't have a problem with guns if they were discussed with even an ounce of self-awareness or sanity.

It's hard to view things objectively when we've been raised so strongly to view certain types of people one way. Once again, it's binary: either someone is doing something wrong, or they're not. I could walk around a Christian community with a black robe and a big pair of goat horns on my head with the intention to cause a rabble, or because it's comfy, or because that's just what I decided to do today; as long as I'm allowed to do it, it doesn't matter. I could park my car in a bad neighborhood with the windows rolled down and a huge chunk of cash on the seat. Now it gets stolen, what percentage of the blame is on me? 0% What percentage is on the person who stole it 100%.
That's the difference, objective right and wrong does not care who you are, it does not care what your intentions are. If the law says that I can carry a rifle then it doesn't matter if I'm a
or a
or a
The law is no respecter of persons, and just because you think a certain look or certain type of person is bad, does not give them any less rights than someone you personally approve of.

lol yes, my upbringing in middle Georgia where my entire family had more guns than I could count sure was a big part of my current view on guns. You don't know me bud.
Yeah, but that doesn't require a permit like most places in the US require to open carry. So are you insinuating its unreasonable for a cop to approach you for having an assault rifle across your back to make sure it's legal and you have the necessary paperwork? Also, my entire point is that would make you a douchebag not a criminal, so I don't know why you keep bringing up the law, there is no legal requirement for me to consider you a douche.
Again, has nothing to do with my point. Never brought up the legality of it, just the fact that the examples I listed would make you a douche, I don't care if you're within your rights, as you said, the Westboro baptist church is legally allowed to say all the shit they have, doesn't make them any less douchey. So please for the love of god stop being up the law for no reason.
We're not talking about the law you maniac, we're talking about people doing douchey things. I'm not infringing anyone's rights for thinking people acting immature with guns are douchebags. If you really care about gun rights you should probably distance yourself from people who are immature as fuck with them and treat them like toys to get their points across. I don't care what you say, there is no reason to bring an assault rifle into Chili's, or walk around town with one strapped across your chest or walk into a police station with one strapped across your chest with your face masked, it might be legal, but it's douchey and makes you look like a maniac, something you'd think rational people for gun rights would want to distance themselves from, but apparently that's too sensible. This is the reason people are so extreme one way or the other when it comes to gun issues, there is no middle ground or conscious discussion.

Your tone leads me to believe that you are set in one way of thinking and don't care to hear opposing points of view. Critical thinking means we are able to to consider someone else's view even if we don't agree with it in the end.
To leave one's personal echo-chamber and interact with all types is to increase one's fuller view of the world as it is, not as we want it to be, or personally think it should be.

I apologize in advance for not having links, but the two worst things that I can think of are both pranks.
The first one involves Keemstar giving a young boy an Xbox game and console, only to break it, and then smashing an ice cream cone in his face. Even though the first part of it sort of seems like it might be staged, I still find it disgusting. The fact that anyone would make a video even suggesting that content like that is funny is utterly repulsive to me.
The second one is the worst prank I've ever seen and I'm sure nearly everyone here has already seen it. It's the one where a guy pranks his girlfriend by throwing a dummy dressed like their son over a railing in their home. She genuinely believed that their son fell to his death while they were playing. It was heartbreaking to watch her completely convinced that her entire world just ended in such a tragic moment.
I cannot even begin to comprehend how someone could think that would be funny. As a parent, the absolute worst thing that can possibly happen in your life is for your child to die. It takes less than a second of that fear for the most unbearable, overwhelming horror and despair to consume your whole existence. The thought that he could find anything about his girlfriend's panic and terror over losing the most precious thing in her life funny is utterly abhorrent.
Pranks in general really disturb me. To deliberately cause someone else's terror, discomfort, or disgust for your own entertainment is pretty awful. Some pranks aren't so bad and are just silly, but most of them are terrible and can even cause people to develop anxiety disorders or PTSD.
When my brother and I were children, we pranked our mom with a scary mask and it seriously traumatized her for years. Ever since then I've been unable to find the majority of pranks humorous. Think before you play a prank on someone and ask yourself how funny you think it'd be if someone did it to you instead.

Probably constantly talking shit about bigger YouTubers and using their faces in the thumbnail so they get more views, then ending the video with a "Just kidding! I actually love insert YouTube celebrity with easily 10x as many subscribers as the tool bag talking about them!"
Onision pisses me off in particular. The bastard pretends to be all high and mighty since he's a vegetarian, doesn't do a damned three minute google search before making assumptions about other YouTubers, is a giant hypocrite, and loves to hate on anyone that people like. He's probably one of those fuckers who says something like "The music of today is trash, only insert some random decade here was good! That was real music!"
God damn, and all the shit he likes to talk about YouTube gamers like Markiplier! Guess what? Mark works with the Make-A-Wish-Foundation, he's helped raise thousands for various charity's, and is just a pretty cool guy who manages to be happy even though he's lost his father to cancer, had a tumor, been in an abusive relationship, and literally had to live in his mom's basement at one point. But no, he's stupid and anyone who looks up to him is obviously some 12 year old.

Ugh Onision is literally human cancer.
I think Markiplier is fantastic, he clearly is one of the most caring YouTubers out there. Didn't he recently have a heart attack too?
Also playing off another part of your comment, smaller YouTubers who put Dan and Phil in the thumbnail to get views. I am a big fan of Dan and Phil, but they get used by every YouTuber who wants views without a click bait title.
apollo22500 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 12:49:17 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, some time back he had a minor heart attack from drinking a couple nights in a row. He explained the science behind it, but I'll try and condense it down from what I remember. Basically, some Koreans can't process alcohol properly because they lack an enzyme needed to do it, so drinking a couple beers every night for a couple nights can really hurt them. Since then, Mark has stopped drinking entirely, even though it meant one of his most beloved series, Drunken Minecraft, had to be ended.
As for Mark being caring, yeah, he's definitely one of the most genuine, if not the most genuine, YouTubers I've seen. Believe me, that statement carries a bit of weight when you've been there since RWJ was popular, Keyboard Cat was still a fresh meme, and YouTube wasn't overrun with compilations.
I'm also a fan of Dan and Phil, so I get angry whenever someone (Onision) uses Dan's face in particular in order to get views. He always has such lovely (creepy) things to say about Dan, then either disregards Phil completely or insults him. It reminds me of those schoolyard bullies who feel jealous of someone and have to resort to childish taunts in order to feel better about themselves.
Also, I love how much Onision loves to harp on other YouTubers for involving their personal lives with their channel, like the DeFranco fellow when he had his little son on camera, yet Onision feels no problem with sharing a medical story about how his child's testicles became red and swollen, how his wife was crying at the hospital, etc.

Watching some youtuber play a video game because I wanted to see if the game was worth getting based on the gameplay. I watched part 1 which didn't get anywhere and part of part 4 and he kept saying thanks for subscribing insert_user_name while playing very slowly. The entire time I was thinking that people were only subscribing so that he calls out their name because he was really bad at the game (missed obvious cues and got lost multiple times) and made few comments since 90% of the time was spent thanking people and asking others to subscribe to his channel. It was the worst gaming video I've ever seen because it was literally a lengthy please subscribe to me video.
He didn't have very many views (few thousand tops) but it was the most annoying video I've ever tried to watch and the only reason I watched part of the series is because he was basically the only one with a lets play for that game.

It's pretty frustrating when you deliver great content and still have to rely on these cheap tactics to get more views. But they work, and that's the main issue. It's the same reason people ask for subs and comments, because by doing so, way more people actually sub/comment. Sometimes it's not easy to decide between staying away from shitty practices and actually getting more recognition for the work you're putting in.
That said, stay true to yourself, but don't hesitate to improve your marketing by using these techniques as far as you're comfortable with it. There will always be people criticizing your approach, but they're not the ones pumping hours and hours into their content. There's a good reason a lot of the big channels do this, though.

Youtubers will be approached by product developers, and they pay them X amount to make a video about their product and endorse it.
Legally, they have to make it very clear that the video is sponsored, and that it's an advertisement. But so many youtubers don't. Why? Because many people won't click on a video that has [Sponsored Content] in the title or description.
And youtube doesn't give a single toss about these people breaking the law.

This doesn't mention anything to do with having to disclose you are being paid for an ad or not.
When they are talking about disclosure they are talking about the little bits of legal wording that some ads are required to have ( you know how when you see a ad for a prescription medication and it says , "this ad does not constitute medical advice, please speak to your doctor about xxxx and if it is suitable for you"

Any video title that ends in 'GONE WRONG' or some variation of that. It evidently didn't go wrong.
Also, as other people have said, pranksters in general. There are very few who actually prank people, most just hire actors or friends.

Misleading thumbnails or "Sexy Thumbnails" are one thing, and then there are the thumbnails with some youtubers cut out reaction (if even from the same video) with an extra layer of photoshop to really widen that smile, fill out the OH face or clarify the terror.
I realize this might be most common for horror game let's players but they seriously not alone and I'm glad I've seen a little less of it recently.

Well you can still tell something is colourful by it being various shades of grey. Except someone colour blind wouldn't call their parrot colourful because they wouldn't be thinking of colour. Its breed, temperament, the feel of its feathers or something interesting about it would come first to mind to a colour blind person.

Lolwut? People who are colourblind don't see in black & white. Depending on the type of colourblindness they can't tell the difference between certain colours.
IIRC one of the more common ones is not being able to tell the difference between reds & greens. There's also people who see orange as purple.
It's also physically impossible to correct colourblindness with a pair of glasses.

___what___ ยท 22 points ยท Posted at 22:50:57 on February 14, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
He really didn't "explain away" anything. He briefly touched on the fact that he uses it as a joke, yeah, but only to make a point that she is no better because she used it in a harsh way, i.e., "you fucking n-word"
The entire point of the video was: she had no right to tell him to kill himself and to hope he breaks his legs over the use of a word she has also used in a very negative context. He knew if he said it in front of her that she'd make a video. He wanted to expose her.
Sure, he could've ignored her original tweets and streams, but that's not who he is. Doesn't make him a shit person for responding to her and exposing her hypocrisy.

It was her reaction and the consequences of her over the top reaction that was hilarious. He wasn't saying the n word to some random person. She started it by calling him out for using the n word while being a hypocrite. As for him driving up there and wasting time and money it was obviously worth since the amount of overwhelming positive feedback he got from it. So he probably more than made up for that multiple hour drive.

The thing is you'd be right if Tana had done what ldubbbz in the Content Cop said she should have done and called him out on how much of an ass he was being. But instead she validated everyone of his points against her when she overreacted and made a video blowing the situation our of proportion. Content Cop is about revealing the bullshit that people do to get views usually at the expense or manipulation of others. Ian took a big risk by doing what he did. Imagine if Tana had stayed calm, called him out, and released that video. Ian would be pretty done. Sure youtube drama and all that, but Ian actually put his reputation on the line for that bit, which is more than anyone else is usually willing to do for content/drama.

While I agree that it is dumb, I would still like to point out that the piercing wouldn't be on their body for the rest of their life. They could take that out and the piercing would close up. Of course, doing that would be a dumb waste of money, but I guess for some those sweet views are worth it. XD

Paid $5 for two Indian guys who didn't understand English to hold up a sign that said "Death to All Jews" just to see if they would do it. The Indian guys got fired from their jobs for doing this (I think they eventually got them back after they apologized). The YouTuber lost two separate multi-million dollar deals because of this, one with Disney and one with YouTube, along with a lot of ad revenue from Google.
You may have heard of this YouTuber, his name is PewDiePie.

I think most people agree that PewDiePie isn't an anti-semite. He just thought it was funny, and to a lot of people it probably was. It's not about that, though. It's about potentially ostracizing an entire group of people whether you mean to or not. Especially when you're supposed to be representing family-friendly and inclusive companies.
He's free to say whatever he wants, of course, but I don't blame YouTube and Disney for dropping him.

He's definitely not, and Disney knew that going in. He's "edgy" and that's why they picked him up... the kids love him. Swearing, poop, sex, etc... all innocent humor. But racism crosses the line.
I agree, he will probably be happier without the contracts, or he will get a contract with someone who will let him say those things.

I'm sure PewDiePie will do just fine, he didn't need maker or Disney but the dropping was PR. I would have hoped that it would make people like you realize that there are some jokes that cross a line and in PewDiePie's video he even acknowledged that he didn't think he handled the joke that well but you are too stupid to realize that

PewDiePie did nothing legally wrong but obviously he did something morally wrong considering how he "ironically" told some poor Indian guys to hold up a sign advocating genocide. Many people found this very offensive and since PewDiePie likes to use "ironic" Nazi imagery in his videos (Hitler's speeches etc) people started calling him an anti-Semite. Now I don't believe he is one but if you're somebody who doesn't watch him a lot it's easy to see how you can make that misconception. It is his job as a new age comedian therefore to put some damn thought into his jokes, and he said as much in his apology video.
As stated before he can do whatever he wants but he shall suffer the consequences of those decisions.
If you want to go around screaming anti Semitic jokes the constitution bars congress from stopping you, but guess what it doesn't bar a private company from banning you or your job from firing you or anything else. If you're a bigot you'll suffer the consequences. The silent minority may have been validated by this election and the idiotic democrats who didn't vote but I sincerely hope they will learn their lessons one by one. Let PewDiePie be an example that just because it's a "joke" doesn't make it consequence free.

So you believe Pewdiepie was 100% in the right to pay people to hold up a sign saying death to all jews. If you did so you would also expect to face no repercussions, like if you held up that sign in front of your Jewish boss but called it a "joke" it would be okay?

A pretty successful speedrunner named Narcissa (better known as Cosmo) had a weird mental breakdown recently and we were left with this video (my nomination) in which she whines in a baby voice in an attempt to gain Patreon support, and also this video talking about how she doesn't want to get a job and would rather live off donations.
I mean, I almost hesitate to post this, as I know this is the Internet, and shitty people will say shitty things. Honestly, I just hope she gets the psychological help she obviously needs. It came as a shock to me, though. I really respected this person until recently, and it's really sad to see this happen to someone like that.

DarksydePhil:
Is basically making money off of failing to play video games and not learning from them how to play them correctly, instead berating and blaming the developers repeatedly
States that anyone who calls him out is a "hater" even if they're providing genuine feedback in order for how to improve his channel or get past a part in a video.
Will maliciously berate and degrade opponents in fighting games when he's winning, only to complain and blame the game for his defeat when he is promptly served the next match.
Adamantly refuses to adapt and change his content, stating "It's my unique style" or some other jargon that in no way excuses his behaviour. This was pushed to the extreme with his late adoptions of capture cards and face cams for his gameplay, when they had been the industry standard for years.
Blames his fan base immediately when his views begin to decrease, saying they aren't giving him enough money or aren't watching enough of his videos to support his lifestyle (collecting figurines and buying needless shit.)
Like clockwork will make a video every 6 months stating "views are down and idk what to do" even though this is standard fair on YouTube for how views go (summer is obviously more dry and right after Christmas is a slow point in comparison as well).
Constantly promises to be positive each and every year, only to return to his argumentative and surly demeanour a few months later
Has alienated his former friends, former collaborators, and multiple other people for his rude comments and lack of social filter about private matters. These include making a video about a close friend dying (which was monetized) and saying his parents are "fucking stupid" on stream for everyone to hear
Has rose to such infamy in the gaming community he has become a laughing stock, with a multitude of compilations (which he is trying to capitalize on by making his "own brand of them" even though previously he stated these videos make him fearful he will be harassed or even murdered by those making them) being made of his play throughs known as "This is how you don't Play:", and various other YouTubers including Two Best Friends Play, PewDiePie, ReviewTechUSA, TotalBiscuit, and many more lampooning not only his inability to learn from and play various video games, but his overall demeanour as well.
The King of Hate everyone.
EDIT: Thought of some more:
Masturbated on a live stream.
Did an "unboxing video" without opening the box
Did a "giveaway" of a game without giving away the game inside
"Offscreen grinds" in games he gets stuck in, in order to be so over powered there's no challenge whatsoever (this is especially notable in the Soulsborne series of games)
Has ragequitted a multitude of games, the two most egregious examples of this being him looking up the ending to a game and playing the ending on stream instead of finishing it himself, and rage quitting a patreon funded and requested play through.

Remember the vine compilations? God those channels pissed me off.
They rake views in off of other people's (often horrendously unfunny) content.
Oh, and every single goddamn one had a girl in a bikini as the thumbnail.
I once had to babysit my cousin and all he did for the full fucking hour was watch these videos. Occasionally he'd turn to me to see if I was laughing, and I'd crack a fake laugh to appease him, but I was slowly dying inside.
Also, he is like 8 years old, so I'd assume that is the usual audience for these disastrously shitty Youtube channels.

I used to record with some "Minecraft YouTubers" a few years ago, they'd only upload videos if they won the game they were in and most of the time would "hire" people with in-game cash to help them win. After that they'd make really shitty edits, upload it to youtube with a unrelevant title and thumbnail and claim there's a giveaway at "x thousand subs". One day I killed them repeatedly in-game while I was recording then recorded them kicking me from the skype call and msging me saying that I was a cunt and then I got blocked. I uploaded it "exposing them" and they only responded with a 10 minute long video filled with ads telling their thousands of sub bots that I was a cunt and needed to kill myself. People on YT are cunts, especially minecraft clickbaiters

This is a topic for debate.
I'm one who says "YouTube is not a job", whereas others will sat content creation/entertainment is.
I mean how is it a job to get PAID to play video games? Get paid to vlog about your entire life (looking at you shaytards/iJustine)...

His content had significantly improved but nowadays with the 'Beastmaster 64', fake piss drinking and all the other dumb, potentially offensive shit he does. Like seriously, come on man, who makes holocaust jokes so frequently and light-heartedly, it's just inappropriate.

Strip FIFA, AKA using your gf/hired work or even your sister for views
CS:GO YouTubers being very vague about gambling sites and their ownership/relationship
COD youtubers using their subs to get good gameplay(having them join the other team to feed them kills. Also CODZ wise, clickbaiting/lying about fake Easter eggs on maps
Minecraft youtubers abusing their younger audiences for money, or for sexual favours
And finally, Overwatch youtubers using NSFW fan art for click bait and not providing source.

I never really understood Youtube until I started uploading Let's plays. As a viewer, you wonder why people would ever go to such lengths to promote their channel, but as a maker putting your time, effort, and energy into it only to be constantly disappointed nobody is watching, you finally get where the desperation comes from. Some people respond to it with perserverance and putting in more effort, others drop their channels, and then you get the ones who take things to the madness place.

The most insulting and offensive thing a YouTuber can do, is when a celebrity dies, or former youtuber (JewWario is an example) and make a monetized video of themselves crying, just jamming it up, and make money from the video, when really, they didn't actually care about the person's content, or know them in person. Just looking up JewWario in YouTube gets you flooded with videos like that. It's disgusting.

Of course, the guy who got 'killed' (fake gun to the head and sound of shot resonating) was in on it, but the friend had no idea. So he was tied to a chair and had to watch his buddy get shot in the head. Obviously he was traumatized and the prankster received a whole shitload of deserved backlash.

I found most of the "does this thing really work" videos somewhat enlightening. Then she got even more into the makeup and fashion unboxing and tutorials...I mean...shopkins? She's like 30-something. Aside from all the filler crap (and now begging for likes) she seems like a person with a pretty positive message. (Also, who wouldn't be that hyper when your brand is fueled by sweet tea and giant gulps?)

Who ever even buys the "As seen on TV" items anyways? I'm just speaking on behalf of someone who has been subscribed to her since she just started YouTube.
There is a huge difference from back then and now like I understand if someone changes a little but she like did a 180. She used to talk about grave yards and ghosts and then she found out that there was a large audience for makeup people and she totally switched her audience geared to children because she knew that she could get more followers that way.
Like she used to be calm and a normal human being and now she just over sells everything, it's annoying.

In one of them she says she's a chicken nugget, in another she comes out as lesbian, and in another she talks to an invisible man who isn't there. She's getting a lot of backlash for it.

It was funny at first, but now I'm feeling sad for him. After abandoning his plans of becoming the fastest man to walk across America, he went back to living with his parents, and hosted a 3-hour long livestream explaining how he wants to do something else and feeling lost.
...and now he posted a video of him eating light bulbs -_-

Joey Salads manufactured "Social Experiments". Salads paid several African-Americans to damage a car with Trump paraphernalia on it. Later he used the footage as evidence that "the African-American community is very violent to Trump supporters" h3h3 productions received a photo from a neighbor that indicated it being a fake and interviewed him where he finally admitted several of his Trump/Black Lives matter videos were staged.

I'm not sure if many people know about this but a popular personality on YouTube, Ray William Johnson. He had a video of a deer attacking a dog, it was disturbing to watch but for those that don't know Ray, he reviews videos in a comedic format. Now the video causes outrage on his channel and comment section and the video gets 'disliked' to oblivion and for any YouTuber this is bad reputation. So what does he do? He disables the comment section, renames the title of the video to "dislike this video" to save his ass from humiliation and bad reputation, and he made it seem like he commanded his followers to do as he says.
I stopped following him after that.

Back in the day gamers like whiteboy7thst would do giveaways for steam gift cards at random and other shit but you HAD to like and comment his videos. He would then list the videos to random categories like outdoors or kids and rake in views by being the top of categories, and get paid from the advertising on his videos. He got literally millions of subs this way, then put out a "I'm sorry" video after once YouTube changed their whole layout so this shit couldn't happen anymore. Pathetic. Was a huge thing in the YouTube world in like 2010, damn I feel old.

Bit late here, but clickbaiting of any kind is really annoying. Lostnunbound is a guy who recently had all his misdeeds exposed by other youtubers (there's lots of stuff but I'll focus on the clickbaiting part). LNU does lots of basketball related videos. If you watch them you can tell they're aimed at younger kids. Anyway, one example off the top of my head was this video where he said 'I MET KEVIN DURANT' as the title. The thumbnail was a picture of Kevin Durant facing towards the camera. Turns out what actually happened in the video was he walked up to a random trash can, calls it Kevin Durant, and has a pretend conversation with it. Wtf?

Here in Holland we have a guy who harrasses people in his city, just for views. One time there was a lady from the town council on television (the show is called 'Pauw') where she wanted to talk to some of the guys and make them stop all their bs. The main reason for them was that there was no hangout-area for the boys (well, there was, but they destroyed it). A couple of videos later the Youtuber ran into her in the town and recorded harrassing her too. The sad part is, he gets a ton of views for doing this.. Damn I have a deep hatred for those guys and I hope there is a special place in hell for them.

Not exactly a YouTuber, but Matt Hardy (Former WWE Wrestler) once posted a suicide note online via a YouTube video. This was just weeks after he was arrested for a DUI in which he caused an accident and got him fired from TNA (A rival wrestling company), so it was pretty believable when he uploaded the video.
It turned out it was just a stunt to draw attention, and that his "death" was just a big lame "I am now reborn" thing. The backlash he received was enormous, even his own friends and family condemning his actions.

Vine compilations and, moreso, webm compilations.
Now don't get me wrong, I've watched and enjoyed many Vine compilations -- it's convenient for someone who doesn't use the app, especially if you want to watch a lot of vines from a particular vine star. There were also vine compilations for specific memes/trends, which is pretty much the least enjoyable way to consume a meme and the fastest way to get sick of it altogether, but convenient if you were looking for a particular edit that you couldn't find by itself. I recovered a beloved morsel that way -- the Dragonforce Worm vine.
But it got to the point where these things were getting churned out like there's no tomorrow. "dank memes vine compilation" -- search a phrase like that and you'll get thousands of videos, most of them crap.
But all that pales in comparison to the webm compilations.
For those who don't know, a webm is a relatively new, efficient compressed video format; great for what would normally be either an mp4 or a gif, but with a fraction the filesize. For comparison, imagine a world where the only image format is bitmap, and suddenly the jpeg is invented. Gfycat uses them, imgur uses a proprietary version that's basically the same called gifv, and notably 4chan began using them as well. Finally, you can post gameplay clips on /v/ (as long as they're muted), and post high-quality video clips to /gif/ and /wsg/ (WITH SOUND!). Embedding them into posts was a lot more convenient than posting youtube links and the like, so some people began ripping youtube videos and converting them to webm in order to post them. Mostly harmless stuff really, it's not like you're going to be stealing anyone's ad revenue on an imageboard.
But then other people started snagging all the webms they could off of 4chan, stringing them together into webm compilations, and uploading them to youtube. Obviously, a lot of the aforementioned youtube videos were now getting jammed into these compilations. It's essentially stolen content, and like those "dank memes vine compilations," it's all there to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

I've seen plenty of good examples but I've not seen anyone mention some of the downright horrific examples such as the kids who tortured animals or the group that tortured a mentally disable kid.
If that doesn't qualify these people as pathetic wastes of oxygen then the bar is too high.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned the girl who got famous for posting a vid of her eating her own blood-soaked tampon. Got criticised for it. Then started a relationship with the guy that got famous for posting a vid of him eating his own shit. So cliche.

Surprised I haven't seen this yet, or its not much much higher. But literally sexually assaulting women. There's a few """"""prank"""""" channels that the guys will literally sexually assault women, often in public, for fucking views. Also probably because they want some bullshit excuse to assault and harass women. Seriously these fucks are the most disgusting and scummy people I've seen on YouTube.

Video of guy filming a protest at a LGB rally. One dude doesnt have any real facts to argue his point so instead he decides to spit in the other guy's face and then run into the crowd of protesters saying that the guy chasing him was trying to assault him because he is transgender. His sexuality was never brought up in the initial conversation, the conversation itself wasnt even about gender, it was about why they chose their own selective political party. The piece of shit just realized he didnt have any actual facts to back up his viewpoints, threw a tantrum like 6 yr old and then proceeded to spit on the person he was arguing with.

There is currently a trend in the beauty community where you put your beauty sponge inside a condom and use that to put on you foundation/concealer/contour. It's super gross and latex is probably one of the worst materials to try to apply makeup with. Makes my skin crawl every time I see those videos pop up since they're marketed to teenagers who think condoms are hilarious.

I've basically become really jaded with YouTube as a whole. You get stuff like NoClip which is this really high quality, journalistic shit that obviously has a ton of work and thought put into it. It's longform, weighty games journalism in video form.
You see this rare, high quality content and it makes you realise that the rest of YouTube is lazy, derivative shit. You start wishing for more of that high-quality, thought-provoking stuff but you get:
"Wow, it's a guy playing a game and describing/laughing at the thing that just happened."
"Wow, a react video." (this is the most egregious to me. It's devoid of creativity)
"Wow, a fake prank video."
"Wow, a YouTube drama video."

I'd say most of the shit that Onision has done, really. He over-publicises his train-wreck of a life and doesn't care about those caught in the crossfire. There's the time he made a video saying his ex-girlfriend (or ex-wife?) had sepsis, exposed that she lied, discussed intimate details of his mess of a mรฉnage ร trois, the issues of his marriage, how he beat the shit out of his dad, from rating fucking teenage girls on a scale of 1 to 10... The list goes on.

A certain mindcracker likes to spoil games in their titles and tweets, so the game is spoiled for you EVEN if you don't watch that series, or just have them followed on Twitter.
Also, clickbait isn't cool, neither is avoiding or skirting around the question, like Philip Defranco says that he can run off his business entirely, that he doesn't need to advertise on his channel, but then he uses clickbait in his titles to get the YouTube algorithm to put his videos on top, and says that it's neccessary to use it?

She's a decent singer and guitar player but the whole thing with her tits out for views rubs me the wrong way. I'm a musician myself and I get that sex sells. But I feel like having your tits out just shows you lack integrity and are getting views just from horny dudes, not for your talent.
This all just my opinion. Feel free to disagree. This chick's success on youtube just always bothered me.

Jontron says a lot of stuff on twitter that tends to be less politically correct than most of his peers. Most recently, he was complaining about some protestor. Then he spends the next few days taking the piss out of himself and critics taking him out of context. The praising nazis thing is pretty much just Poe's law.

He definitely has come out against SJW stuff, but did not praise Nazi's. Also, he didn't start out doing let's plays, he started as a popular game reviewer before starting game grumps with ego raptor. While it hasn't been made public as to why he left, towards the end of his time on game-grumps he appeared to be dissatisfied with the creative stagnation that the channel created.
He isn't desperate, his channel has 3 million subs, and nearly every one of his videos has over a million views. And quite a few of them get 3-12 million views. Outside of the world of low effort shat out lets plays he creates well crafted and humorous content.

Jontron is an interesting beast. He's in it for the comedy. He's from a time and place of the internet where being audacious is funny. His comedy idols are Tim and Eric for fuck's sake. It's why he's buds with lots of old Newgrounds animators. His transition into Game Grumps gained him a much larger audience, but also a younger audience. Game Grumps was popular with 18-20 somethings but also very popular with kids. These kids are growing up and reaching their teenage years in a time where it's cool to be sensitive and offended. The teenage tumblr crowd. They're impossible to avoid. So he gained an audience of fans that would turn on him for calling the PS4's game streaming service retarded. There's been like four different twitter shitstorms surrounding innocuous things Jon has said on twitter in the past few years. Hell, you're calling him a nazi because he went on a Sargon of Akkad livestream because he had experience with twitter shitstorms. And oops, that appearance caused another shitstorm.
So what do you do after being the center of made up controversy as a comedian? Do you apologize and stop trying to be funny or do you play everyone and make people laugh at others' reactions? The fact that people are calling him a nazi is funny as hell so I'm glad he's playing it up.

I think you're talking about Blair Fowler (juicystar07 on YouTube)? She did a video titled something like "Life on a Budget" where she mentioned some $7 salad from Wendy's that she claimed to buy 6 days a week, as a suggestion for people to stay healthy on a budget. She talked about the salad/Wendy's for a solid 4 minutes and kept mentioning it because her red lipstick "reminded her of the beautiful colors of the tomatoes" or some BS. She also said things like, "it doesn't even matter if you jump in the pool with this hat, because it was only $20 and it's not like it was a designer hat or something!"
She got soooo much shit for that video. I have to admit that I really like Blair and have followed her for years, but that video was ridiculous.

Oh yeah, there is a Youtuber with a username like that, but I don't watch her. I looked it up and her video was also about a Wendy's salad and was posted around the same time Blair's was, although Blair's is much more rambly... I guess Wendy's paid a bunch of beauty gurus to talk about the salads, lol.

Right, it's not cause you make middling clickbait game videos like every other youtuber now. It's cause some unsubstantiated but totally real entity is targetting you specifically.

Cannot find it now, but a guy said he could eat sixty Cadbury's creme eggs in sixty minutes, and livestreamed the big event.
He got to about six or so, then had to be sick, attempted to eat another one, couldn't face it without retching, then gave up to a flood of mockery which culminated in him glumly agreeing to put his shoes on his head.

Gimmick videos with too much foreplay.
For example, the 1000 degree knife videos. I click on that cus I want to see shit burn but instead I have to see the knife, see the lighter, see the knife heating up, see what's being burned and then I finally fucking see shit burn. And like two much foreplay in sex, it always disappoints. Similar with those crushy press vids.
It seems like the youtuber is trying to up their stats for minutes watched and its total bs manipulation.
Also in terms of whoring for views, those 1000 degree knife vids are pretty cancer.

Type in 'Storytime' into YouTube and pretty much any of the shit that pops up.
Top video is titled 'MY PARENTS TORTURED ME AS A CHILD'. It is a 13 minute video about how she sucked her thumb as a child and how her parents tried to gently stop her from doing it [such as wrapping tape around her thumb, that nasty shit you dip your fingers in to stop you biting your nails etc].

All you can do is be aware. If it's viral in nature, if the reddit account is young / "aged" (Meaning low activity but old enough to get past automod antispam age gates), similar on the youtube side, not a lot of videos, not a lot in common, low subscriber / views and monetized videos, the video was just posted recently: you have a spammer.
Of course, because I'm late to this thread, nobody's going to see this.

Some time ago, there was a trend on Youtube consisting of doing videos called "100 layers of [stuff]". It started with a woman putting 100 layers of nail polish on her nails. It was quickly ollowed by other makeup youtubers doing 100 layers of foundations or lipsticks? All of that was useless but okay. Then it escalated really quickly to more hardcore stupid (and actually dangerous) shit, like putting 100 layers of hot candle wax on one's face.

There is one thing that I hate the most when small YouTubers do for views, they will go to to a popular YouTubers video either relate to their own contents or sometime not even related and comments along the line of "If you are reading this comment, have a great day!". Most of the time, their channel name is named very obvious, NAME Minecraft Let's Play or NAME VLOG, etc. You KNOW what they are doing, they want to attract viewers from the popular YouTubers to check out their channel for being nice. The truth is, that is the most pathetic and most annoying thing to do for views, and most people look down on. However I don't know if some people are naive or what, a handful of people will comment something nice back and these trash comments will be liked to the top few comments.

Well this is a bit different than what most people are coming up with, but just South of the so-called youtube skeptic community, and in a sort of venn diagram with said community, is the fanatic identity politics circle-jerk community. These people are here to make whatever minute of fame they can from saying politically charged crap that a certain, targeted audience likes to hear, and basically selling their soul out for popularity and views under the guise of being legitimately politically/socially involved or concerned. Basically, just find different ways to say "CRAZY FEMINAZIS OUT THERE, AMIRITE", and you'll have a cozy audience to leech off of.

More words? He's SO desperate for views, that he doesn't make the videos he supposed to.
Funny gaming videos with character.
Now he's just rolling around the fucking floor in a "naked man" costume. Wtf man..
Sometimes it's funny, sure, whatever makes you happy..
But those stupid gaming videos and those stupid views...
That's what made him a fucking multi-millionaire in the first place.
So annoying.. And sad. I really liked him. His early videos were really funny to me..
Oh, and ofc all those goddamn "porn for 1,000,000 views!"- click bait whores.

Sorry to disappoint, I really don't care that he earns his Money this way. I'm actually happy for him. I really am.
But I'm disappointed, that he forgets what made him so famous in the first place.
Down to earth videos. His funny character. He as a person. Which I used to like very much- I was able to identify with him. And - mind you-I'm a "early times" sub.
I really loved his character, his goofy him, just the way he did his videos.i loved it.
Now? You can't listen more that a few mins of that goddamn voice he does all over again, just to be edgy and cool.
I guess I'm sad that this funny, goofy and dorky persona just..went for that new guy. I don't like it. Which is ofc absolutely okay, cause it's his channel.but, sadly..no cant watch that anymore.

I post pretty mundane, stupid shit on my channel, and back when you could tag keywords to your video, I would tag anything I could think of to the video.
Example: My most viewed video with ~6K views is my AVGN Fan Pizza Taste Test, a response to James Rolfe's video of him and his buddies trying different pizzas from the TMNT cartoon. I filmed myself eating pepperoni and pickles, then tagged everything I could to the video from "AVGN," "fan," and "pizza," to "pickles," "pepperoni," and even "chicken" since our pet chicken showed up in the background. I feel that doing that made me desperate for views.

Onision. For the time he recorded his girlfriend (allegedly) having a mental breakdown that was so extreme that she forgot who she was, and regressed to the mental state of a 5 year old, and uploaded it to Youtube. He took the time to edit the video, add sad music to it, and put ads on. He did nothing to help her, and suggested that everyone who said he should bring her to the doctor was an asshole because she doesn't like hospitals.
Guess what? She was fine shortly thereafter, and said videos disappeared from his channel without explanation.
Fast forward a few months with typical clickbaity videos, and there's another one: He uploads another video, holding his girlfriend in his arms, and saying that she has sepsis, and may need to go to Canada (I think she has dual citizenship?) to get treated next week. Sepsis is a blood infection that if left untreated causes septic shock, which has a mortality rate at 50% if it sets in. If you get sepsis you need to be treated I-fucking-mmediately if you don't want to die. If it's treated quickly, most people are OK. You don't leave it untreated for over a week. It was blatantly obvious bullshit, and people called him out on it. This video also disappeared from his channel, and AFAIK it was never explained.
This is just the Youtube shit by the way. One of his exes wrote an open letter explaining the events of her quite brief relationship with Onision online a few years ago, which can be found here
It's quite a long letter, but if the excerpt "he even went as far as to tell me that his mother informed him that when they were broken up but still living together โ and G wouldnโt have sex with her anymore (but would buy her sex toys and show her how to use them โ yes, I am serious) โ that Shiloh tried to force his little dog to eat her out, and the dog got scared, so it bit her in the crotch. Then he said something about Shiloh peeing on his bed and blaming the dog? I donโt even know, by this point I was terrified and stopped listening. It was time for me to fucking go to bed." doesn't tempt you, I don't know what would.
This only scratches the surface for that manipulative bastard (Did I mention his early attempt at a weird extremist vegan cult of personality?) and I honestly hope he goes out for a drive alone, and his car goes off a cliff so nobody else is harmed by him. Oh yeah: He's getting close to 2 million subscribers.

Pretty much most YouTube "celebrities" annoy me. Annoying thumbnails with stupid faces in them, brightly colored clothes and hair styles that make them look like they are straight out of Nick Jr., dumb gimmicks on their videos, and generally not being funny at all.
Like how many times do I have to watch two mid-20s people talk about the news with hilarious soundbites overtop it, some "non-gamer" playing video games and sucking at them, eating things with hot sauce, etc.
It's just... I don't get that PewDePie guy at all, yet he's insanely popular. I think YouTube simply isn't for me. It's low effort humor that people flock to because it rakes in the money.
If it's actual good content? Sure. I'll give you my time, but not if you are piggybacking off of everything else and think a fresh button up polo and some faked voice (I'm looking at you, Toby) will make you important.

There's a youtuber couple (Not sure if they're actually a couple) who are the definition of the phrase, "I'll do anything for fame". From the looks of their vlogs, they don't stage anything but are full grown adults with the most childish attitudes. It's embarrassing to watch them getting kicked out of places for acting out in public, destroying items and acting like two immature high schoolers just for a cheap laugh.

Some day he uploaded a video where he got "stabbed" hunting a "drugdealer". Video is fake AF, you can really notice. After everybody criticized him and showed how fake the video was, he went out and told it was a "social experiment".
Here's the video, 5:15 for the stab..

"I'M CALLING OUT YOUTUBE!"
There are so many more easier and less obnoxious and standoffish ways of voicing your concerns to YouTube, and now every YouTuber and their mother is making videos talking about how horrible YouTube is. And then Felix made a big show about deleting his channel when he reached 50 million subscribers, like he was making a statement to YouTube, but he didn't really delete his channel. Just a side channel that isn't affiliated with him.

Philip DeFranco or whatever his name is....whole first 2 years on Youtube he would make all the thumbnails for his Youtube vids have half naked/bikini clad girls on them in just blatant click bait attempts to get views.
Every day/week there would be a thumbnail of some hot girl and no indication that it was his show.
I fell for that shit a couple of times every week looking at my recommended vids and seeing some girl in a bikini then clicking on that shit and seeing his face instead. That deceptive, and unethical behavior on his part taught me to completely hate the guy and I don't even know him. For all I know he might be a very awesome dude, but since he pulled that shit it gave me a very bitter taste in my mouth toward him and now I think he is a scumbag because he was dishonest in his advertising. I fell for it almost every day and each time I ended up on his channel I was like "fuck! not again!".
He might be successful now and loved by many and all that but I think the things he did to get those early views (when at that time Youtube's algorithms cared about the numbers of views not the length of each vid and engagement) were pathetic.

The problem, as another Redditor pointed out, was that the sock sticking out of the dogs ass was stark white. It didnt have shit on it. The conclusion was that OP stuck a clean sock up his dogs ass for internet points. I doubt anything on youtube can top that

I made a video about YouTubers who use an auto-commenter to spam 1000's of small channels to get them to come join their Shoutout series. The comments basically say "hey, awesome video! Check out my shoutout series to earn more subscribers!"
Then gullible channels (mostly kids) will go and see they have to follow at least 4 rules to "qualify" for a shoutout. They usually consist of: - Subscribe to their channel - like and comment on all their content (the more you comment, the more they will "notice" you) - subscribe to the winner of the shoutout - tell the winner that they(scummy YouTubers) sent you
This is essentially a pyramid scheme that so many people fall for. And the types of people who do this don't even have interesting channels, just the same old video game commentary and dubstep intro douche who can't think up of an original idea. Sickens me

Bonus points if they use an official album logo or image from said new song/album or they make it around 3-4 minutes long and it's just the image or even worse, a news segment from someone's backwater entertainment site talking about it.

Entitling a video "QUITTING YOUTUBE!"
VinhSama ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 01:37:26 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Offer to post sex tapes for reaching subscription goals.
There's nothing wrong with putting sex tapes online, and I personally don't think prostitution is wrong, but baiting for subscribers and views by offering a sex tape that you wouldn't otherwise post is basically admitting you don't have anything quality to offer on youtube.
You can be an amateur pornstar on chaturbate or pornhub or something like that instead, where that content is exactly what people are looking for. It's like the episode of Family Guy where they open a cookie shop, and they have strippers and hookers to bait people in. At that point, they're not there for the cookies anymore, why even bother with the cookie shop.

Someone pointed a handheld camera at their computer monitor and uploaded their camera recording of what was clearly someone else's youtube video onto their own channel. No dialogue or commentary other than whatever minor background noise the camera might have picked up (like the mouse clicking to start the youtube video). Just a crappy cam recording with crappy audio of someone else's youtube video.

This might just be me but i hate when people have a thumbnail/title that don't give away what the video is about. I'm subscribed to quite a few Let's Play channels and i hate seeing something like "I don't want to play this" And the thumbnail is their face. I want to know what i'm going to watch, it's not that difficult to write the name of the game into the title. I guess it works and generates clicks.

No one is being specific here about most stuff, but I'll be anyways. On the beauty guru youtubers, the ones that usually do makeup, are shady as hell. For example, this makeup palette by nikkietutorials, who , coincidentally has shady practices as well, was very poorly received for being an awful palette and Nikkie herself was criticized for misleading her "fans" as well in her reveal video. Another big makeup youtuber is Tati, who did this pathetic review in which she is basically kissing ass while the makeup in the palette that she had shown in her video was very clearly awful, but she continued to give a "good" review. And people still consider her a "credible" source on reviews when she is basically a glorified advertisement that pretends to care about you, when in reality she just a wants the fame and money. I could go on and on about most makeup gurus and their corrupt practices.

In that case, I highly recommend the show "Social Disorder", it's made by Rooster Teeth (Of Red vs Blue and RWBY fame), and is about putting ordinary people in extremely uncomfortable situations, making them do things they wouldn't normally do. That is a social experiment, not getting someone to kick your ass and then going "W-wait! There's a camera, this is just a social experiment!"

Not someone I follow but I was linked it by a friend so I don't remember the name. He was one of those prank you tubers. His prank consisted him of crushing up a shit tone of laxatives into ice cream and giving it to his kids (looked between 3 and 8 yrs old) and then procede to video them while the cry on the toilet. And tellin them was a lesson to teach them tรฒ not eat so much ice cream at once. That was no prank that was straight up child abuse.... Also What hit me was how hesitant and untrusting the kids where when he handed them the ice cream... usualy some kids given ice cream will be extatic and happy these kids looked like they didn't know what to do with it cos he had probably never just given them a treat before.
TL;DR : prankster youtuber spikes his small children''s ice cream for views.

It's not really pathetic on the youtubers parts, but when game companies give big channels their game super early and let them post half the fucking game before release.
There used to be competition to be the first channel to fully playthrough a game and upload it, but it's impossible for small channels to climb the ladder this way anymore. I don't blame the youtubers, it's hard to say no to a situation like that, but companies have become too reliant on youtubers praising their game. (Like when all those Battlefield channels got paid by EA to give Battlefield 4 high praise).

This wasn't a youtuber, but this girl from the show "married at first sight" started a blog. She also wrote a book, and every blog entry she somehow finds a way to promote her book. That's fine, I get it, it's how she makes money. But she ended up having a miscarriage and made this really long, emotional blog entry about it talking about how devastated she was. I felt so badly for her but in the middle of the blog she tried to self promote her book again. Saying something along the lines of "you'd know how much having this baby meant to me if you read my book links to amazon" and once more at the end she promoted it as well. Something about it just really rubbed me the wrong way. I was surprised she couldn't have a single entry without trying to make money off it. Not a huge deal but yeah.

That one guy who created that Rayman "leak" with Smash Bros. He made a rather real looking video of him being hovered over in-game and it got quite a bit of traction, to the point where I think Ubisoft and/or Nintendo were very close to making a statement on it.
Then he revealed it was really a stunt for his channel where he'd "Smashify" random characters.

Misleading titles.
"Snake eats crocodile and gets killed by an elephant with a tiger on its back!!!" Whoever puts rick-rolls behind such a title: Go fuck yourself! You should be the one who gets eaten by that snake.
When I click on such a video I want to see exactly what the title suggests. Not more, not less. Yes, sometimes I want to see a hungry snake getting killed by an elephant with a tiger on its back.
@google: Fuck you. Why aren't you deleting videos with misleading titles once they have been reported? Do you need the money or are you just too busy playing pool?

I.e. Went to a local Italian restaurant and got the manager to let him, a grown man, to order a kid's meal but then didn't want to pay for his adult sized drink.
Or ordering a giant drink from Starbucks, drank half of it and then complained he didn't like it and got them to make him another drink for free. Then proceeds to just pour out the free drink all over himself.

On the Western hemisphere: Youtubers whose primary content consist of drama. Leafy, Tana, Keemstar, WildSpartanz, RiceGum etc. Instead of creating original, entertaining content, they create (or exaggerate or even involve themselves when it's something that has nothing with them) videos to profit off the drama.
On the Eastern (Japan) hemisphere: product reviews (with exaggerated reaction) and absurd "challenges". Hikakin (who used to make great beatboxing videos), Hajime-shacho, heck, almost half of Japanese Youtubers have made some sort of product review video. While it may not be as cancerous as drama videos, the thing that was reviewed as well as their over-the-top reactions turned me off their videos forever.

If you were around the league subreddit about two years ago there was this thing called the YouTube Skype Group. Basically some the top League YouTubers made a group with the specific purpose to upvote all their videos that get posted on reddit and YouTube and then downvote/brigade/banned everything else so their content gets massive views in a short amount of time. I hate those channels now with a passion and refuse to watch ANY of their videos. One of them is even a creepy jerk in real life.

In Spain there is a guy who recently pepper-sprayed the face of a pizza delivery guy. He picked up the pizza, entered the house to search for the money, pepper-sprayed the pizza and then told the worker that there was a problem with the pizza. In front of him, he oppened the box and the poor guy got all on his face. And the asshole who did that told everyone that it was just a prank, and that the next one would be more "edgy". Also, theres this other guy, who insults random people in the street, and then says that it is just a "prank". One day, one of his "victims", a worker, faced him and slapped him for calling him "caranchoa", that can be roughly translated as "fishface". The youtuber told in the video that he was going to denounce the worker (this would probably put the man's work at risk) and this news reach Twitter quickly. The slap became rapidly a meme and there were tons of vids parodying it (like when Richard Spencer got punched). It has become sort of a trend between spanish youtubers to harass workers, for the sake of "pranks" Aka for visits and money. And there's this guy who basically recorded himself tormenting his cats (throwing them to water, scaring them with electricity...laughing his ass off), and one day he spreaded toothpaste in some Oreos and gave them to a beggar. As a "prank". Now he is being prosecuted by Justice for humiliating the man. As I say, all this cases spreaded rapidly in Twitter and now a lot of people knows and hates this assholes.

Not a YouTuber, but a twitch streamer, was pretending to be a paraplegic. Eventually he made a mistake on stream and got up from his seat. He set up charities that his followers donated to and everything. Basically just a overall shitty person using others.
Edit: his name was ZiloanOP

I made a video about a Firefox icon phallus.
I was 12, and saw videos about hidden messages in advertisement and looked for anything in everything. I noticed the old logo had a land extension that sort of mimicked the fox holding a huge dick.
With some clever keywords, a click bait title, a "300" sound bite and horrible windows movie maker graphics, I managed 1million+ views. Pretty good achievement for someone that age no matter the premise. My other videos got about 10k views. But I stopped making videos and eventually deleted the account on impulse.
The original video, and idea, was stolen of course. You can find the original on ebaums world last I checked.

Pretty much anything shoenice does. I've watched a few of his videos where he chugs whole bottles of liquor or glue and it's actually amazing to see someone do things like that. The thing is his whole channel is filled with him eating fucked up stuff and I can't help but feel sorry for him watching him destroy his stomach.

All of D&B Nation's videos. Click bait and the same "breakup" pranks over and over. Also they're never with they're kids. When they go shopping and out to eat every day, are their kids with them? Nope. They just ha a baby two months ago and after the first 3 weeks they went on vacation to Florida. We seriously hardly ever see their children. Also the dude is 24 and the girl is 19 and they already have two children with the oldest being two years old.

The click baiting and the overused breakup prank i agree with. But id disagree with the "they dont spend any time with the kids" just because you dont see them playing with dj or kyrie in a 10min video doesnt mean they dont spend time with em. And the last sentence about thier age i dont get? is the 5 year gap to big for you?
LucaHall ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 02:45:49 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
I would generally agree about the 10 minute video thing, but you think about it, they post everyday and they do the same stuff: go shopping and go out to eat. In general people would bring their kids with them. They are never with them doing regular shit. And they're not just doing these activities for 10 mins. In real life, one would be gone hours on end. And their videos are usually 25+. And again the traveling thing, they left the day after DJ's birthday. They've gone traveling, what, twice? Since Kyrie has been born and he's only two months and you think they're traveling as a family thing? No, they're leaving those kids and going off to Cali and Florida.
5 years isn't big when you're 30 and 35, or 24 and 29, but 19 and 24 and she done already had two kids? Meaning one was born when she 17. That's young af..

My son is 3 and knows how to pull up YouTube on my phone and somehow gets to these videos of creepy adults (generally female) playing with kids toys. They'll open up these little eggs or surprise boxes and show what TV character toy is inside. Or maybe it's a play doh set where they just narrate while play with it. It's weird and oddly addictive for little kids. I know my son isn't the only one who finds these and loves them. He'll watch them over and over (partly because he can't really navigate YouTube, partially because he just loves them).

It's a pretty obvious answer? Some people enjoy seeing how others react to something they've already seen to compare their thoughts on the video to theirs or compare their reaction to their own. How do you not understand why someone would have an interest in that it's something pretty much every somewhat social person already does in real life.

Some Youtubers who make videos aimed at younger kids are really exploiting the YouTube like and view functions as a quick money making technique by claiming they "hacked" another Youtuber and that the only way they will give the channel back is if they go to the "hacker's" personal channel and like their videos as well as subscribe to them. It's clearly just a circle of friends acting like they're hacking each other's channels and holding them hostage for likes and subs. It's mainly clash royale videos. Search "durv" on YouTube and you'll see what I mean. Shout out to APL Fisher and his glorious neck beard for drawing attention to it.

I continually get followed on twitter by random gaming channels, this one guy was so godawful. I think his name was Tophatgaming or something, his whole appearance was cringe worthy. He was trying to ham up his English heritage by wearing a suit and hat, had a crooked pencil thin mustache. The best part was, he wasn't even wearing an actual hat, he was wearing a costume hat in public.
This idiot also put cigars in his jacket pocket when it's normally used for pocket squares. He's obviously banking on becoming the next Markiplier even though he's not interesting or have any discernable skill. I really wish that they'd stop this twitter-following BS.

One word, clickbait, the type which never lets you bite at all, since there wasn't a bait at all to begin with. The second one that I can think of is talking shit or crap about someone else, even if they don't know the involved person well enough to do so. All for the sake of sensationalism, sometimes they don't even know if they're talking about facts or lies. Some people have been made victims of this kind of slandering online, I remember an innocent old man getting framed for another old man's pedophilliac crimes. Therefore, for whatever you hear on the internet, you gotta take it with a pinch of salt.

This is relatively minor and will certainly get buried, but I can't stand when videos have the title "10 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT [blank]". The hubris of claiming to have an idea of what I know or don't about a certain thing that I'm passionate about is infuriating. I just avoid those videos entirely nowadays. Never mind the fact that, at best, those videos usually include maybe one or two things I didn't know.

When unknown acts record shitty covers of recent songs that are too new for the official version to be on YouTube and title the video with something like "Artist Song Official Lyrics Video", then get around flags for misleading titles by putting "cover" at the bottom of the description - which mobile users, aka most of the people looking up music on YouTube to listen to while they exercise or whatever, have to click the video and have a view counted to read.

Garrett Ginner, a skateboarding vlogger, likes to make his viewers wait to see shit that just really doesn't matter. Like"Hey guys I got this new shiny thing that really isn't that cool, but you gotta wait a few days to see it even though its right fucking here!"
He spent the past week saying that about revealing what wrap he put on his Audi S4. So yesterday he fucking fakes a reveal and sets the video to black and white whenever he shows the car just so he could get another day out of making the viewers wait to see it. And TBH no one really even cares about seeing it, they just want to see him skate which he hardly does anymore.

I used to watch Casey Neistat's vlogs when he was uploading them daily. I still remember one titled "She Fell Off the Horse". Spoiler alert, nobody falls off of the horse. I enjoyed his vlogs for a good year or so, but he always had clickbait titles. I wish YouTubers didn't do that. I feel it cheapens their videos. The video is no longer about the content, it's just "some more content."

Those "OTK" guys or whoever did a video where they get in a taxi, pretend like theyre depressed, then ask the taxi guy to drop them off at a bridge.
They would get out and pretend to want to jump. The taxi guy gets hysterical and tells them why they shouldnt.
The taxi guy has to talk him out of it. Then they get back in the car and they say it was all a joke.
One taxi guy was so visibly upset that they couldnt tell him. This video, according to them, was to "create awareness" for suicide victims.

Pretty much all of the videos by LA Beast are pathetic. He does a wide array of things like eating a cactus with thorns on it, eating a cut up shoe, drinking a gallon of tobacco sauce or cooking oil, eating multiple jars of Wasabi sauce, and his latest video was him eating light bulbs. One of his more crazier ones was just him eating the chocolate bhutlah that's supposedly fairly hotter then the Carolina reaper but hasn't been scientistically tested to be hotter yet. He was hallucinating in that one.

When they make several videos documenting "what's happening" after one of their family members dies or whatever other sad event happens to them. Most of the time it's maybe one video explaining that they won't be doing videos for a little while which I understand because they'll have hundreds of whiny little bitch kids pestering them about the next video and news about them being dead start to appear, but I've seen sometimes where there's a daily video where they just repeat the same shit like "I'm just so sad, this is gonna take some time blah blah" with a thumbnail of them crying and titled like IM REALLY STRUGGLING or some shit. It's like the most perfect way of making me go from mild sympathy for the guy, to losing all respect within the span of 1.5 seconds of seeing that they've got a second video.

I have seriously seen tons of "I react to a react video of me."
In other words, you make a video. Someone makes awful content by reacting to that video. You make it even by worse by reacting to their reaction.
And don't even get me started on when reactors react to their own react videos.

Having a hot girlfriend, using said girlfriend in every thumbnail half naked, and having every title be something that could be taken sexually (eg "I can't believe what she let me do to her!").
Also the thumbnail is no where in the video, nor does anything happen related to the title

I used to live in the same apartment complex of the YouTuber UDY Pranks, my mom was the apartment manager, she constantly saw him rehearsing, he even told her they were rehearsing. One time she had to make them stop filming at the pool because there were little girls at the pool and parents got freaked out he was filming there with them in the background. He threw loud parties, and I believe got kicked out after my mom left the complex.

There was that one YouTuber (I forget his name) but he was doing a give away of 1000+ iPhone 7s or 6s (can't remember that detail either) and in his video he showed truck loads of phone cases. When it came to the giveaway only 3 people got an iPhone and I believe in order to enter you had to subscribe. It wouldn't be hard to find it because of how much controversy it got.

There was a thing Youtube channels were doing about five years ago. They would upload a video and immediately take it down. Epic Freakout Kid was one of the channels that did this. What they found out was that when you uploaded and then took down a video people had a tendency to go back and watch old content, generating more views. Back then the video would show on Youtube for a little bit even if removed but if you clicked on it the page would say the content was removed. It also generated a little buzz for the channel, people would talk about what was in the video, or if it broke Youtube's rules when in fact there was no video at all. I think some Youtubers came out to say that Youtube came to them saying they should do this for more views and they refused.

Yo wassup guys big money Asgartov here to comment on this Reddit thread. I fuckin hate when Youtubers post videos where their thumbnail is not in the vid and the title is some shit like "HD GAMING TIPS" to get them clicks and views from the gullible masses. Kinda like this shit from a big money Youtuber called Erik Salvia. it kinda scares me honestly because if YT can deceive people this easily what can the government get away with? i mean already half the population has been sent to FEMA camps right under our noses and we don't even know it. Its even worse when your president flies hologram planes into your famous buildings in order to take away our freedoms with the Patriot act and start a holy war with Muslims. But I'm not really worried about that right now because Trump is gonna make america great again by getting all the immigrants out of here and build the border wall. I mean look what /r/conspiracy and Alex Jones have already exposed, the Obama administration helped one of the largest mass immigration compaigns in the history of the world (he's a muslim born in Kenya btw). Anyways I bounced on my boys dick too long today so I kinda need to go see my anus doctor for a rubber tube that got stuck up there while I tried to make him suck it out like a girl givin me a blowjob.

Not so much attached to views, but I used to be a part of a sketch group in which the who de facto leader would lose his shit over the like and dislike ratio if it didn't come up to what he thought was good. He would spam subs with the videos we made and have us spam them to other people as well at times. If the particular video didn't get the exposure he deemed fit, he would be passive aggressive and angry. The thing is, it was only on videos he wasn't directly in charge of. If he thought it was bad and it manifested itself in anyway sort of way, no matter how minute, he would make it apparent that "we" not "him" didn't do a good enough job with whatever. If it was a passion project for him or one he particularly wanted to do, he would also claim that any negativity toward his project was our fault. We disbanded eventually because of stuff things like this. Being friends before this, it altered the dynamic of the group and hasn't been the same since. Last major thing they put together after I parted ways was an indiegogo for a project he has really been wanting to make since even before the group had come together. They raised most of their goal 1.4k I think. But when it finally went to post production he lost all energy towards it citing "it had not been made the way he wanted." even though from day 1 he had effectively sabotaged any chance for it to do that. That video may never see the light of day and that money may never go back to the people it belongs to.
TLDR - A man lost friends over self esteem being attached to the like/dislike bar.

Well this is topical, but making increasingly offensive videos because of the feedback they receive from some of their viewers. It's a business, I understand you want to give people what you think they want, but it's pathetic to make anti-Semitic jokes in your videos because a particularly vocal part of your audience responds to it. Also pertains to other increasingly antagonistic, largely right-wing ideas, because "LOL jews and feminazis" results in a bump in views and likes from that section of viewers.
Second most pathetic thing is an incessant need for personal branding. Many Youtubers think they need a schtick rather than have people like them for who they are, and of course it comes off annoying and phony more often than not.

I think the biggest thing, these days, is clickbait, and the thumbnails and descriptions aren't much better. I can't tell what any given video from half of the YouTubers I'm subbed to is even about, because it's just some generic clickbait title they've used ironically.
I watch less and less of their videos, because what they put in the title doesn't sound interesting, or alluring, at all, and is usually extremely unrelated to what content the video actually contains. I recently found out that like 20-30 videos I skimmed over from one YouTuber were actually part of a series I enjoyed watching, and thought was gone. Thing is, it could be a hell of a lot more than 30, even, because the titles are the same generic clickbait as the rest of their videos, so I can't tell which videos are from which series.
It's gotta stop. Go back to the descriptive titles, ya fucks!

Most of the stuff outlined here. Mostly clickbait thumbnails that have little relevance to the actual video, regurgitating pre-existing content in the vein of fail compilations or most reaction channels, or following trends like the fucking 1000 degree knife bullshit that was making rounds.

My aunt and cousin post these terrible facebook videos where they do really transparent "magic tricks" like the Denmark / Kangaroo / Orange riddle except at every step they say "Okay you've got your number? Now hit like!" ... "When you've visualized your animal hit share!" It's the worst.

Having clickbait titles or pictures should be a rule or strong policy on YouTube. If I like you I will click on your video regardless of the title. If you are trying to attract more viewers, they aren't going to subscribe to a liar who just wasted their time!

Screenjunkies is probably most famous for their "HonestTrailers" series, but also has a cult following for their "Movie Fights" series. But lately those video views were sliding, so they added "Drunk Movie Fights", basically where the fighters get drunk and more pathetic as the show goes on. But the real jump the shark moment was "Stoned Movie Fights". Yep, fighters were stoned on weed throughout the fight. It was so bad, embarrassing, painfully tedious to watch. I couldn't past the first round, and the comments section was scathing negative about it.

To be fair he watches how many views he gets, so he knows his audience. If everyone clickbaits (including the news) everyone just comes to expect it and suddenly its not an issue.
Maybe you are not one of the people who does it, but the title can draw in new audience which raises views and subscriptions.

Look no further than our good friend DSPgaming. Holy shit this guy is sad. He had an okay run from about 2010 to 2012 but since then has fallen off harder than I thought imaginable. He moved from one side of the US to the other and alienated his friends. He begs on youtube for people to donate to his patreon account so he won't have to go out and find a real job. His full time girlfriend has a more stable source of income than Phil. He claims that his youtube channel is a business and says he runs a small business so he feels like he is wearing the pants in the relationship. He will upload at least 10 videos a day so maximize his potential views and even then, the videos only get a couple hundred views each.
His most recent shenanigans are pretty sad too. He has a couple of channels so he can get as much money as possible but one of those channels is pretty much dead. So what he decided to do was take videos made by his fans and upload them to this dead channel with some voice overs at the beginning and the end. The people who actually made the videos get absolutely nothing out of the deal but Phil gets 100% of the money.

I forgot what this you tubers name is but he made a video stating he was kicked out of high end dealerships because he was black or something. But he left on his own accord because no one automatically walked up to him and he didn't have the money to buy a land Rover Range or mercades. He litterally was driving a Kia Soul and automatically assumed he'd get rich off youtube before actually making youtube videos that's why he was trying to buy mercades

This one isn't extreme, but it was sad to see a devolution in quality from a YouTuber who I thought was entertaining. I don't wanna put his name here, but he made some funny and creative skits that felt like he actually tried. But since he started gaining subs (500k right now), he started getting money, and now all his content is stuff like "CRINGY MUSICALLYS OMG", and he recently even made a (sort of) spiderman and Elsa video. I thought it was meant to be satire, but he was just trying to get views. I think he recently even said that he only cares about the money at this point. It's a bit sad because I actually thought he was a cool and funny guy, and enjoyed watching him. I guess I respect the hustle to an extent.

The videos that have the thumbnail as some popular video going around that you are trying to watch. But when the video starts it's some chick in a VH1 style newsroom and instead of showing the video, it's 3 min of them talking about what happens in the video and showing tiny screen caps of it. It's soo fucking annoying!

The worst thing I see from the video game world is YouTubers who title a video "Here's what we know about "upcoming unrevealed yet highly anticipated title" and the whole thing is them giving their opinions on edited down versions of other people's opinion videos, all the while nothing is known in concrete and it's all headline grabbing and speculation. I have less respect for these people than internet trolls because at least (most) trolls aren't asking for money.

The first season of a stupid Web series is linked in the description, and they ask you to go to the videos and tell them why you would be interested in working on this show that magically has the budget to shoot in a new city and pay you twice what others will pay you.

And they all say the same thing when doing it. "today we're going to do something a little different!" No you're not. It's not different. Everyone knows that spicy things exist. Find a way to actually entertain people.

There was that one time EtikaWorldNetwork made a four minute video covering some fake Splatoon leak. He spent the first 3 minutes and thirty seconds talking about some dumb T-shirts he was selling and what was left of the video talking about the thing that was actually in the title/thumbnail.

Irrelevant title in combination with boobs as the thumbnail. Or even worse, showing themselves "cry" with an all lower cap title followed by an ellipse, then video turns out to be something really stupid and cheery. Another one that I hate is channel fishers, those that try to put themselves out there by posting a link to their channel or asking sub for sub.

God there is this one annoying ass black dude with an annoying voice who does overwatch and has the most clickbaity titles ever and says thing that aren't even true. "Unbox regular crates during events to have a better chance of getting rare items!!!" Nah not how that works. He uploaded a video showing the "new" hero doomfist with some shitty photoshop skills. The comment section was not pleased to say the least.

Read more about this in another article - Pewdiepie went on fivver which is a site where you pay people $5 to do stuff. Paid two Indian dudes to hold up a sign that said "Death to all jews" while he recorded a youtube video of himself reacting to it. The two dudes claim they didn't understand what they wrote, they got banned from fivver because of it. Pewdiepie claims he didn't think they'd actually do it. http://www.businessinsider.com/disney-cuts-ties-with-pewdiepie-over-anti-semitic-videos-2017-2?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=referral
"In the โDeath To All Jewsโ video, Pewdiepie, who hired the men via freelancer site Fiverr, reportedly said, โI didnโt think they would actually do it.โ The Indian men later apologized in a video, saying, โwe really donโt know what the message meant when making the video.โ All three were banned from Fiverr."

Theres this guy who has around 800k subscribers now (not going to say who it is), but when he was at around 10k subs a couple years back he had a video where he vlogs with his 14 year old sister and asked for people to give them requests. The video got a lot of views compared to the other stuff he uploaded so he made it a series and said the next part would come out when the current part hits x amount of views. He said in the videos we could "dare" him or his sister to do anything and they would do it, and most of the comments were requests for his sister to do weird fetish based things. I think the whole time the guy knew this because he put in the small dares first and he threw in some dares people had for him and got them out of the way early so the stuff his sister did were the main attraction, he would then title the video based on that. Then one day he entered this competition and he made a video telling everyone to vote for him and in return he'll upload a video with his sister in a bikini and she will do anything we ask. He said things in the video like "I know there are a lot of horny guys here so you guys do me this favor and I'll give you what you want, it only takes 1 minute to vote but what you get in return will be worth it". All of his other videos at the time were pretty much just him calling out other COD commentators and doing whatever it takes to get noticed by the big youtubers or become youtube famous himself. At the time he was a small channel and the whole "youtube drama" thing wasn't what it is today so I don't think many people know about this.

I don't know about most pathetic, but the thing that annoys me the most is when a non-english video has an English title. This is especially common with tutorial videos. I hate finding a solution to a problem I'm having, just to find out that I can't understand the solution at all because it's given to me in a language I don't know.
Which in itself is fine. But when the title is in English when it doesn't have to be, I hate it.

Clickbait. One of the most idiotic things you can do as a YouTuber.
"Hurr durr let me make a extremely misleading title and thumbnail so I can dishonour my viewers trust to gain an extra bit of money and views".
I cut all ties from YouTuber's who clickbait. Roman Atwood, Fuckin fakey Lance Steward, etc. Such a shame too because I enjoyed their content.
Fuck clickbaiters, I don't fuck with them. If YouTube viewers all boycotted them YouTube would be a better place.

The videos are extra creepy as fuck...and when I saw one for the first time I feel like I got a little too angry. Lots of my favorite tubers have been given shit from YouTube just for cussing..while these whores are basically stripping..with children.
Just to be clear..these are not "educational" in any way...and the comment sections are full of pedopervs...

Anyways, she told youtube that she'd drop a sextape once she hits 1 million subscribers and the saddest part is that she's actually getting close to that number. What's more pathetic than that? She's on Pornhub anyways so before you think about subbing for a sextape, just search her name on Pornhub to find it.

I dont know why they do it, its not like they get a lot of views, but i absolutely HATE videos of products you want to research, like a review or unboxing and its just a fuckin crappy montage with stock photos, screenshots and crappy stock music, like this shit or this shit.
It was kinda hard to find those right now, there are a lot of legit reviews, but when a product its new they always show up and its annoying.

I get annoyed by all of the "I WANT TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH YOUTUBE PAYS ME!!!!!" videos everyone I'm subbed to seems to make.
If you want to say that your financials are private when people ask, fair enough. You have your right to privacy, so if you want to say "I don't want to disclose that", be my guest. You shouldn't have to disclose your day-to-day finances to some random stranger you've never met if you don't want to. It really annoys me when they make those click-baity titles like that just to say something vague like "I make enough to get by" or other nonanswers that they give in the comments anyway. That just reeks of being deliberate clickbait for the attention, since they know that the curious guy who thinks they can start a channel and be hot shit wants to know an idea of what they can make and will watch that fucker to the end if they have to.
I can't remember the name off hand, but one guy actually did share the page YouTube shows and showed his expected income and whatnot because he was wanting to be transparent about something or other, and if you want to be transparent with your followers, that's your right to do so, as it's also your right to dodge the question. But the deliberately deceptive titles meant to clickbait annoy me more than it rationally should.

In Argentina, a stupid youtuber FAKED BEING STABBED to get views. He said he was going to catch a drug dealer that sells to minors and when he tried to grab him, this "drug dealer" stabbed him. Everyone noticed the video was fake so after many attempts to deny the accusations, he gave up and made another video saying that everything was planed from the beginning, like, he made the video seem fake on purpose because he wanted to see the people's reaction. WHO'S GONNA BELIEVE THAT SHIT? What a moron.

After Idubbbz exposed that blonde bimbo about how much of a liar she is, I've noticed a lot of these "story time" videos now just seem like a bunch of Bull.
Like a lot of these people are "vlogging" so often and it would seem that conveniently, any time that something super crazy or out of the ordinary happens, they just didn't have their camera.
C'mon people. It's the 21st century, as soon as I'm in a crazy or memorable scenario, my first thought Is to reach for my cellphone which just so happens to always be in my pocket and it has a fucking 8 MEGAPIXEL CAMERA!

Making a historically based youtube video based around...oh idk 3 really popular historical characters that star in a soon to be released video game (cough for honor cough). Proceed to do no research and spout off things you heard in an anime show this one time. Then proceed to claim you spent 10 days of research (that honestly a 10 year old could have done better) and basically use your popularity to spread lies and falsehoods about 11th century warriors. Some people should be ended rightly with a pommel like in the olden days. Bright side some of my favorite youtubers made some amazing rebuttal videos ๐

We have popular streamer in Russia who was jailed for 20 years, and now his friends beat him up for donation on twitch. 15k-20k people usually watching his streams. I don't know how this is fucking legal, since it's not acting. The worst thing I saw, they shot him in head through metal plate. He's still alive, he's making about 40-50k dollars monthly for it.

For those of you that don't know, Adam from NoJumper and his gf (Lena) are going to make a sex tape as soon as she hits 1m subs. It obviously worked. She's gained like 500k subs since she announced this. Idk, something just seems wrong about doing a sex tape in return for a certain amount of subs and revenue.

Doing pathetic things for views is pretty much that ShoeNice dude's whole shtick. I don't know how he's still alive. That guy that smoked the ghost pepper comes to mind too.
Maybe I'm being a curmudgeon, I find there is very little dignity to be had on YouTube. There is some genuinely interesting, original content to be had (Freddie Wong is pretty good off the top of my head) but most of it, even the idiotically popular stuff, is pure garbage. I know I'm being a grumpy asshole but YouTube is such an utter dumpster.

Does anyone remember the Reply Girls? They'd take highly viewed gaming videos and then post a "reply" video with a thumbnail of them in a low-cut top.
The video would be 2 minutes of them mumbling through "this is a good video, it is funny - please like and subscribe!". This was a time when you could post a "Reply" video and it would show up on the right side of the original video - regardless of the quality of the reply.
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XCi9ynBCbPA/T00XPHX8yjI/AAAAAAAAASc/QqNrfW5yzlM/s1600/replygirls.bmp
So they'd flood the "reply" feed with these low quality dross and the whole thing was a debacle.

Anything Joey Salads has ever posted. This man is the epitome of shit I hate. Hes one of those shit bags thats sadistic and is just an asshole to his friends for his own entertainment. Hes one of those "social experiment" Youtubers, where im pretty sure he made one video where he pretended to be a terrorist and threw "bombs" at crowds of people. Like HOW FUCKED UP DO YOU HAVE TO BE. This sentiment goes out to every other prank youtuber ever. Being a complete dick to people in public is not a prank. Theres also "viners" more so Instagrammers now but this bs started on vine, as well as youtubers that whore out girls. Itll usually be titled with "when bae....." Or "when she...." and its just an instagram hoe they paid hoeing out, then them doing absolutely nothing creative or inspiring whatsoever.

2) Most of these are just vines, viral videos, and even just picture memes Frankensteined together with no explanation or credit to the people who made them.
3) The fucking titles.
4) Fuck you if the thumbnail is just some chick in a bikini that isnโt even in or relevant to the contents of "your" video.

There is a lot of drama going on here in Spain because of this.
1) Few months ago, the "cara anchoa" happened: famouse pranker got clapped in the face by one of his victims. Pure gold https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQlmTv3NZK4
This guy went to the hospital and then to the police and sued his prank victim (can you believe it?)
The issue got the media attention and the youtuber had to remove all his videos. Surprisingly, Hawkers (sunglasses brand) bought his channel. 500.000 followers ain't no joke.
2)Few days ago, another "youtuber" attacked the pizza delivery guy with pepper spray. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zn4--9ZrKjw Just a matter of days to see what is gonna happen to this genius. I have my popcorn ready

The most pathetic thing is that most the youtubers who do this are generally the ones that already have shit tons of subscribers and are rolling in money from before, as well as them having generally really low-quality videos where they just take some simple topic, improvise a bit and post it exactly 10 minutes long, even if there are already actual good an informative videos about the topic (taking the views from them).

Probably a bit late but I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Trisha Paytas, the most deluded person on youtube who uploaded something like 10, 20 minute videos in a row a day of her crying about breaking up with her obviously gay boyfriend who went to a gay club, made out with a gay guy and put it on his snapchat. She snapchats while driving, makes videos while driving and eating in a mother fucking hummer death machine... She recently had a massive breakdown and posted loads of videos of her eating chicken fingers and mumbling about how she was a vampire.
Most of her videos are 20 minutes long, have a title like 'I'M LITERALLY THE MOST SPECIAL CRYING PERSON IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW AND MY MANSION ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO HOLD ME TEARS' and in 1 minute out of 20 she will talk about what the video is actually supposed to be about.
Serious cash cow, but broken as fuck.

"Shout-out" videos which prey on younger people making videos or those struggling to get there videos seen. They make the person wanting a "shout-out" like, sub and comment on videos in the hope they get mentioned in a video. In the actual video you can tell the "shout-outer" has never watched any videos as they keep everything generic and mention things like "they have channel art"
I believe (hopefully) YouTube cracked down on these parasitic channels recently as I have been getting less spam

Drama Channels. People who get tons of views for making videos by talking about YouTube drama. I noticed some drama channels make their videos around beauty gurus and others center their videos around gaming and lifestyle channels.
Pushy Vegan Channels. Similar to drama channels but instead put YTers down because they are not vegan.

I'm still not sure how so many game trailer channels exist. It's just trailers made by publishers or developers, literally posted to a different (most of them have a shit ton of subs too) channel with a watermark. I guess it's purposely for promotion material and all but I don't quite understand how they get away with ads on those and doing absolutely nothing else on that channel. They're huge, those people essentially make money with no real input?

Not one thing/channel in particular, I'm just genuinely saddened that so much of YouTube is that clickbait bullshit "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!!!" shit, I've actually looked at one or two of them, and it's just some recycled crap that's never actually interesting or entertaining, and they always have millions of views.
Why? For God sake, people are obsessed with views and every time I go on YouTube for a song or something, YouTube puts it as my 'suggested/recommended' so it's always the first thing I see.
I went so far out my way to delete/unlike/block pages on Facebook that post clickbait so I don't have it on my newsfeed, and yet it's so hard to get away from unless I actually stop visiting YouTube all together.

"Story time" YouTubers. Videos titled something like " THE TIME I WAS RAPED IN TARGET" and stuff like that. Their titles are very misleading and clickbait. The video itself is horrible, being dragged out to 10 min just for the ad revenue, and the stories, if they even are true, are obviously exaggerated to the point where it's not even believable. And their channels somehow thrive off of this.

Last month a guy made to the news here in Spain , he was mocking people in street , he found a delivery man and told him "can you tell me where this street it" and when the other guy was starting to answer he added "anchovy-face". So the delivery man delivered a big hand open slap right to his face.
The youtuber went to the hospital to report an agression then right to police and reported it and published the whole thing in youtube.
It made to the news really fast, the delivery man was treated like a hero and the youtuber deleted everything and sold his channel to a company.

The video he was reacting to was barely visible in the bottom right of the screen. I made it through 1 minute before I realized I needed to seriously reconsider what I was doing with my time.

Literally everything that those shitty "gaming" channels run by 10-15 year olds with ~1000 or so subs do. You know the kind I'm talking about. All their channels look the same at first glance. Sometimes a bunch of them are friends. They only play Minecraft, CoD, FIFA, GTA and/or CS:GO. Tons of clickbait. They do shoutout series. They like to leave copy-pasted/bot comments on videos from small channels. Those channels.

I saw a video by a guy called sernando or something and he called the video gta 6 trailer. I watched it and it was just modded v gameplay. His explanation was something like "this is what gta 6 might look like". I left a comment calling out the clickbait but when i went back an hour later to show my friends my comment had been deleted. I reported it for a misleading title but i doubt that matters. Hope someone with a large audience calls him out for the clickbait cancer that his channel consists of.

I used to enjoy Bria and Chrissy. Then they started to use clickbait titles and began having video thumbnails suggesting that something sexual was going on in the video, with half-naked thumbnails or heavy kissing or such. Of course it never happened anything like that in a YouTube video. But just three times of this happening were enough to make me ditch the channel
TL;DR: pretending there is sexual content to attract viewers. There is not

Being an entitled asshole with his patreon and even treating his parents terrible on camera. Under the guise of a YouTube play-through-er.
He's an ass to everyone who tries to help and as such his YouTube channel is dying. I'm not going to mention this one's name because I'm not sending any views even by accident.

Seems one of the norms these days is videos dedicated to slandering other youtubers unnecessarily or without proper evidence to back up their claims. People like Jamie Pine, Drew Gilchrist, Mike Jerry, Dodie Clark, Lewis Parker, ...oh, and during the time when popular Youtubers were being outed as sexual predators, these two musicians made a collab song telling the perpetrators to stop making YouTube videos. Like, really? Telling people to get off of public domain? I agree, they don't deserve their social status, but you don't own the website and you're not the police. All they do is fuel a fire that is already burning fiercely. EDIT: removing last paragraph as it wasn't actually relevant to the discussion

They made a video about their reactions to reactions of reactions of reactions of what some guy did in a video game four months ago,
and then, made a follow up video to apologize to all the people the offended with their reactions,
and, then, made another follow up video retracting their apology because they were treated unfairly based on their gender,
and then, made one more video about how stupid the entire situation was, and what they learned from it, and thanking all their fans for their support,
and then, deleted their account,
and then, killed themselves on Facebook live because they realized life has no purpose and all anyone wants are likes and clicks,
and then, revealed in a follow up video posted on Snapchat and Instagram explaining how they survived and how thankful they are that they didn't die and proclaim that God "must've been looking down on" them
and then, got really angry, farted, and made a sandwich
and then, made a new YouTube account solely dedicated to the fascinating lives of indigenous species of Antarctica, ultimately, becoming the leading source of information of wildlife that flourish in the harshest of environments like Antarctica and similar climates,
and then, had a following of over three million people, with the top request for a future video to be about how penguins are monogamous creatures, and making that video, and learning the process that monogamy is not suitable for humans because we don't live on an ice island and depend on our significant other to do one hundred percent of the food gathering while the other sits on their love child for months at time, and decides to be an advocate for open relationships, but later figures out that he wants multiple women to love him, but, for them to love only him, resulting in a marraige made up of him and three other women, who then have seventeen kids, and then are contacted by TLC and asked to do a reality show of their life, but, only if they have one more child because Eighteen and Counting sounds better than Seventeen and Counting, and then, makes a substantial amount of money only to be spent on his eighteen ungrateful children, who he later murders, blows himself up, and leaves his wives lonely and sorrowful for the rest of their lives, who all become avid crocodile hunters, and make Gator boots to support their addiction to opioids and tax evasion, and eventually die of ovarian cancer, lung cancer, and early onset familial altzhiemers.
They were later honored at the Bellevue Memorial, just down the street from where the BGM happened.

No names, but from my brief scans I'm pretty sure no one has referred to a certain YouTuber who pretended to physically attack another, so they could both make false videos about the fight from either side for 3 videos or so, each.

I personally don't like how a channel will become less genuine over time. For example, Now you see it produces amazingly well made deconstruction of film and is in my opinion really entertaining to see. Then you have other channels that were like that, creating well made content every month but, have gotten lazy with their work and it doesn't have that charm. I don't really have any examples maybe, Game Theory and how he hoped on the FNAF band wagon.

it lasted for years and they do that shit over and over. unless you were there watching it happen it's sort of hard to understand.
this channel is run by a guy who obsessively watches the youtube manbaby network. he does an ok job of explaining individual instances of fuckery. the guy i previously linked is way funnier though.
the problem you'll run into is that gamergaters -and these neckbeardy talking heads and their zealous following- tend to lie. a lot. and when they aren't lying they're being intellectually dishonest. and when they're not doing that they're basically just threatening to rape anyone they disagree with.
the plus side, i guess, is that any normal adult listening to their pap will immediately laugh at how idiotic they are. all it takes is like ten minutes of reading a given source material to catch them in a lie. it's not surprising, then, that their following is mostly made up of people who have trouble thinking critically.

But damn, all her videos were just her saying, "hey there guys (wave) I just watched a video, you should check it out. Here is what kinda happened in it. Thanks bye." In a super mono tone unenthusiastic way.
And she would rake in the $$$ from irking haters.

Getting in flame wars with other YouTubers. This is like trying to make their own YouTube version of those stupid "reality" shows that just throw a bunch of immature, simple-minded people into a shared living space just to get entertainment from their drama.
What's worse is when people talk about them like they're celebrities of some sort.
If your YouTube channel is all about your opinion, you're not half as important to the world as you think you are.

Convince the ignorant morons of society that what they do is unique and deserving of "making a living" off of. This is especially true of YouTubers whose channels are just them shitting out opinions, viewpoints, etc. that you'd find scrolling through your Facebook feed. This includes people (women) who abuse and exploit their sexuality/looks to get subscribers and such. I think maybe 10% of all "YouTubers" are actually legit, unique people with serious talent of some kind. The rest are just attention whores (sometimes without the "attention" part) who think they're way better than they actually are.
At any rate, I am not a fan of any YouTuber and think they're all mostly just (in general) a bunch of entitled millennial queers with narcissism.

Not Youtube content, but one thing that really pisses me off is really long ads. I use Youtube to listen to music in the shower quite often and there is nothing worse than having a 2+ minute ad between two songs. I swear I had a 9 minute ad once. Just make it 30-45 seconds and if the viewer is interested they will click it. I DON'T WANT AN AD THAT IS LONGER THAN THE VIDEO I WANT TO WATCH.
EDIT: I understand that most of these can be skipped, but I can't get to my phone when in the shower.

Well, it might be an unpopular opinion or something, but I don't like it when people have gameplay footage running while they talk about completely unrelated stuff, often not even any info in the video or even information box that says what the game is. It's done only because it's an easy way to make a "video" and gets automatic views because they'll always show some popular, recently-released game.

PewDiePie.
This isn't strictly the Youtuber wanting attention more than the Press/News outlets that are slandering his name and company because of the crude humour he uses in his videos. It's pathetic how these so called 'news outlets' can twist something that was ironic or just for comedy around and bring the guy so much backlash. Now he is losing his company, Disney is falling out with him so he may be evicted again soon (if not yet). The fake news around him has gained so much momentum that even some of his friends and his family think that he is anti-semitic, a psychopath and a neo-nazi until the situation is explained thoroughly. This video ( https://youtu.be/JLNSiFrS3n4)should explain the jist of it. #IStandWithPewDiePie

Youtubers who try everything they can so they can make their videos 10 minutes long, which is the minimum time allowed for you to put mid-video ads in. Like those Youtubers who 'call Rockstar asking for GTA6' will literally include film of them dialing the number and waiting for someone to pick up just to squeeze every second of extra time in. It's so boring and pathetic.

Pewdiepie threatening to close down his channel at 50mil subs, even though most people knew he definitely was not going to do that. He makes a shit ton of money from youtube so he most likely figured he could gain more subs if he threatened to close his channel down.

Basically, TB and his team had in the past a policy of being a video game content provider and nothing else. Recently they abandoned that pretense and started using the well known leftist shaming tactics and calling everyone who doesn't hate Trump a fascist. In a recent "co-optional" he even implied that he thinks violent protest is called for.

He made an entire video purely to mock them. Didn't add any information or conversation.
Their copyright was only bad because of how the american copyright system works. There were plenty of people who were ripping off their format straight up. And if they truly wanted to have a monopoly on reaction videos they wouldn't have made the announcement before they made the copyright
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 14:01:23 on February 15, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
No one says they did. But they wanted to copy right the idea and then get at least a portion of other's profits.
And I don't believe "format"is in any way copyrightable. You're talking intro, then side by side of the ordinal video and the person watching it? That's a really basic concept seen everywhere from streaming to morning news segments.
Also just checked out cgp's video. Yea, that was parody. Are people not allowed to parody ridiculous statements anymore?

The vast majority of reddit did when this shit was happening. But it's besides the point.
Of course people are allowed to make parodies. But his video was a terrible one, and that's not really his thing. And doing it purely to get views because it was everywhere at the time makes him no better than all the drama bullshit channels, in my opinion.

La Beast chugging two ostrich eggs (equivalent to two cartons of eggs) because some other youtuber made a video about him eating more eggs. The whole video is pathetic he just goes on and on about how he is THE La Beast for what? Chugging raw eggs and because everyone is laughing at how miserable you are?
Would be great if someone would link to where he chuggs the eggs
edit: link

Pewdiepie saying how he's deleting his channel. Ffs 29 million including me got click baited. I hate shit like that. I didn't even know who that mofo was before that title.
Also modubai or whatever his name is whoring his sister for likes. The guy shows his own sister in a bikini. I just think these youtubers have no shame.

Pewdiepie lying about deleting his channel when he reaches 50m subs and then deleting an unimportant account of his. I rather watch "Infinity War Full Movie Free" with a link to 8000 viruses than 2 seconds of a pewdiepie vid.

Men put on too much make up (cosmetics) and it is a disaster. Type "make up" and then click on "today's videos" and there are some every day.
As a bonus, would you like Pepsi Pinball?

Lolol all you pussies circle-jerking your close-minded bullshit is always hilarious to see as much as it makes me weep for humanity!
Stop ruining the internet please, back to your safe spaces all of you~
