Shows, Lies & Money.

Let Me introduce you to Youtube DouchebagMCMoneyWhore2345 - Cobanermani456 

 Now, Shows on YouTube are used for various types of Content: Web Mini Series, Web Shows etc, and are generally meant for a collection of similar content together in 1 Location that people can subscribe to like a normal channel.

 When first introduced, gaming partners never really had that option till around 2011 when if you're in a network, you can create these. Now, I use shows myself, and I find nothing wrong with them let that be on the record. HOWEVER. Since the nature of shows tend to appear first in search results:

;
People.. tend to abuse this.

------------------------------------------

 Usually with shows, The sooner you create them, the more likely hood of your show appearing first if two people have the same show name. (I'm 90% positive on this) So naturally, First in best dressed! When creating a show, it has to be approved by You-tube, and their credentials are mainly: Filled in information, Uploaded graphics, and submitted a video. If you don't do any of these your show will not be created until all requirements are met.

 So you ask, How does one create a show that is viewable in search results and public for a game not even out yet? Well.. he's where the douchiness comes into play. People upload trailers for the game 90% of the time. Not only does this gain easy views for your channel (and money!) it allows you to have some sort of content relative to the game. Consequentially.. You can attach any old video to a show so it gets approved, and that's what Cobermani456.. let's call him Cobi... did.


 Mr Cobi has 3 Shows tied to the game "Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed" one for the 3DS, PS VIta, and Wii U versions accordingly. Now.. there isn't anything too wrong with them, it's a tad desperate in my opinion, but you know what they say. Say what you will about making multiple shows/making them with trailers/making a couple minute "I'm Lping this game!" video



 I'm talking about against YouTube rules, and moral rules which these people seem to fucking lack. 


 Here is a picture of the 3DS version of the Show. What's that video you see linked? NiGHTS Journey of Dreams for the Nintendo Wii? May 6th 2011? What? This video contains NO content about Sonic and All stars Racing Transformed, and is completely unrelated (Other than the fact they are both SEGA titles)


 This is Mislabeling videos for views, and shows. Now he may not do this for views on this particular video (and will most likely remove it when he has legitimate footage for the show) but this is.. well Mislabeling videos. This has nothing to do with the promised game, and I'm pretty sure that's against the YouTube terms of service! This isn't the only case either.




Credit to iPodmail for this picture. 
He's not the only one that does this.
 --------------------------------------------

 Say what you will about this, for me personally, it's wrong. I have nothing against shows, But when they are mislabeled like this, It kinda pisses me off how much people will do for views. They say its for the subs to subscribe to, but its really for the up-loaders wallet. Prove me wrong. Tell me a reason you think this is accepted. I would love to hear you justify lying.

 Hope the money is worth it; Placlu.

Notch VS Yogscast

Calm the hell down everyone.

Lewis is kinda an idiot,and his "fame" has gone to his head. I think if anything they should thank notch for everything, and not the other way around.

All in all its gone wayyy to big, over such a small issue.. It will be interesting to see the video they post up soon, and may end up digging them a hole... diggy diggy hole.

TBH: I lost interest in the yogscast a while ago. I guess that's what a bunch of numbers can do to people.

Seriously...

So... as most as you know, Minecraft 1.0.0 was released yesterday. And People are being dumb.

MINECRAFT FORUMS > Honestly the worst place to be.. It's filled with idiots.. and 10 year olds..

Thread Example #1 - Is _____ Mod updated for 1.0.0 Yet? When will it be out?

Dear god you impatient little idiots.. It was released like 5 minutes ago, and you're already complaining... Do People not realise when the game ASKS you to update, you can so NO?
Most of the big modders are at fucking minecon.. Deal with it and posting the same thread 100 times isn't going to help anything. BE FUCKING PATIENT.

Thread Example #2 - THE DEATH AND END OF MINECRAFT

So yes.. Minecraft has credits and a "Final Boss", No It dosen't take long to "BEAT" the game...
People are complaning "what has happened to the ENDLESS gameplay, I don't want to beat a dragon and thats it.."

Simple answer... DON'T FUCKING GO THERE THEN. Honsetly.. If you want to you can play minecraft living in a 1x2 hole.. It's about choices.. You have the CHOICE to beat the enderdragon.. and when you do beat it, everything goes back to normal.. Your world isn't over.. You just gain about 100 experience.. Which if you wanna be picky about that.. DON'T COLLECT IT.

Thread Example #3 - 1.0.0 adds nothing?

"What's the point of releasing the game if its the same as PR6 or RC2...."

Hmm... Well I don't know.. maybe that they were 100% OPTIONAL.. They were tests... for bugs to make 1.0.0 "Perfect & Bug Free". The last minecraft update was 1.8.1 A LOT WAS ADDED SINCE... Sure its been available to us for a while, but everyone with a brain realised that RC2 & 1.0.0 Wouldn't add 10 new blocks... or a new mob.. its just finalising it..

There are new blocks, mobs, and even a new realm added in 1.0.0 since they weren't there in 1.8.1
1.9 Never existed "Officially"

The point I'm trying to make, is I'm sick of the minecraft community, and it honestly makes me want to just scream at people until they get the right idea..

Minecraft should have an age limit.. so we don't get stupid shit asked.

TGN

Well. This is what my blog is turning into – a rant blog – it all starts off with....


TGN is corrupt Gaming network that tries to be like Machinma, or TGS. The biggest thing I hate about TGN is the main guy in charge? George or whatever, firstly he freaking annoys me, but that’s just a personal thing. Even without him I still hate the thought of the whole company.
TGN posted a “Youtube Handbook” which is meant to help out smaller channels get to 10million views in 5months just as TGN did. The Booklet can be found here (Honestly read this shit.. It's so stupid), and Goes on to discuss how YOU can get make a full-time career out of making videos. Whilst giving basic tips, (Clear Microphone, Use Annotations to get more views, and basic “Avoid Copyright”).

Now Sure, TGN made it 10 Million views in 5months, but I can grantee you will never get there in 5 months. Not even a year. What people don’t realise is when you start off on the big wide world of youtube you start off in gaming where it is one of the most popular categories on the site. Your starting off a big battle to the top against thousands of others, weather is be people like you just starting, Machinma Directors, Partners, etc. There is a lot of people trying to achieve the same goal as you, and some may of already gotten there.

Basically you’re a nobody when you start. TGN is a company – with many people running it, and MONEY behind it. People actually invest into these things to get money at the end. They have marketing people do all the crap for them. What do you have? An downloaded copy of Sony Vegas and Fraps? Hypercam 2? Windows Movie Maker? The thing is you have 1/10th of what they had when starting.

Am I basically saying give up now? No. If your goal is to become a billionaire of youtube so you never have to work a day in your life? Yes. Give up now, cause the chance of that happening is.. “Slim”. If your goal is to have fun, build up a small community of friends and any money you get off this is just extra? Then you’re in it for the right reasons and yes i encourage you to get out there and have fun as long as you can accept that your content may not get many views, may get hate messages and not a lot of subs. Everyone starts like that, and everyone gets hate mail – Welcome to the internet.

Anyway back to why TGN is Bullshit. WAY. We are Youtube. “It’s about watching everyone grow together” “...not brands or companies but people”. Basically they are willing to “train you” to make a fulltime career out of making gaming videos in only 6 months! How? Faceboo- I mean TGN Social, a glorified forum page about games, and where you can index your videos so you can get more views and all that wonderful stuff. Use the handbook as stated above and you will be awesome at life! And an excel spreadsheet that tells you how you are going, how many views you get on average a day etc, and comparing them to other people. And that’s it. You follow those steps and you will be a youtube partner and TGN director making money off your videos... Yep. That’s it. Link your videos on forums, Use basic techniques to increase the quality of your videos & Monitor your views daily, comparing yourself to others. Fucking bullshit.

So this WAY Crap. They are now posting on all their videos titles and promote WAY. This is apparently not TTTT since WAY is about making a community of gamers and getting you to where you want to be. Sure TTTT Is flawed as hell as I’ll get to another day. Now. This WAY crap is better than TTTT in ways.. But still its TGN Posting embedding YOUR videos on THEIR site making THEM money and YOU a couple more views... See how this is flawed and money hungry trying to make money of your videos.

Getting into TGN? You have to submit 3 videos to TGN Idol (which gets like 40-100 views each btw..), Join the forums, and then the directors or something review your videos to see if your “good enough”. Now.. TGN accepts crap. They have little standards – as long as it looks good & sounds good. You’re In. Who cares if the commentary and gameplay suck, It’s how it looks & sounds. They will also partner any channel with 100K Total Upload Views, Which is not hard to get there...

Why is this an issue to me? Its exploiting the youtube system – which is screwed up anyway – making any channel that produces crap, into a partner getting little money off the crap. People think Youtube Partners & Machinma Directors get tonnes and tonnes of money. It’s all based off your views. Having 2000 subs and 100 video views each isn’t going to get you that much money.. and in the long run, its best to get a REAL JOB. Sure the more views you get – say 20K per video (constantly) – will get you more money. But how many people get 20K views per video after 6 months.

That’s the issue I have with TGN their “Initiatives & Programs” They have all these things to get you to the top to “Pay all your bills” within 6 months. This is utter bullshit. It’s a marketing ploy to get your videos on their websites so they get more money. In all honestly it’s a company.. Its money driven.. and they can make money off anything. Even the death of People. They give people false ideas about being the next big thing.
That’s basically why I hate companies. Youtube started as 2 Guys wanting to send a video to each other, and now it’s a multi-billion company. With other smaller companies trying to rake in through that ... It’s why I hate TGN, Machinima, TGS etc.. It’s too corporate. That’s my opinion anyway..

People these days...

Honestly, can people not read or understand very clear instructions.

I'm speaking about the Portal Gun Tutorial. Usually I want to help people, but now I have gotten to the point where people can't follow very clear, very visual instructions, and proceed to blame me when it doesn't go their way. Are people that immature now days they leave a dislike and talk in ALL CAPS to get their point across.
Now.. I know most of my viewers are in the under 18 section of insight (not to mention the creepy 60 year old who are secretly 13 so they can look at b00biez, thatz toatz coolieezz!!! Regardless, This stupid video has like 8K views and is rappidly increasing. Which means the stupidity of people also increase.
The People on youtube who want to be the next Seannanners, or Yogscast, need a reality check. It's unlikely to ever reach that status, and I never want to be at that high of a "Fame". Currently at what 800 subs now, I'm already getting.. Less interested to read comments so to say..

I guess the point I'm trying to make, is People annoy me. Ether it be real life idiots, or internet idiots. The world is full of idiots.
