Poll: YouTubers

[BiscuitsJoe]

I was curious how many members of the Escapist community are also members of the YouTube community. Also, What kind of videos do you post, and what do you think of partners? Any partners. Could be your favorites, could be the ones you hate the most.

For example: I hate Fred.

I liked to do Let's Plays, but my stuff I used to record broke.


I don't hate Fred, but I think he is really, REALLY over-rated. I think that Chris Crocker shouldn't even be a partner.

I usually do Reviews and other gaming related jazz.
And I don't really hate Fred, he just gets far too much credit.

How can you not hate him? He's the worst! I get headaches after three seconds whenever I attempt to understand it.

He gives his fanbase what they want. And while he didn't do that first, he seems to be the one who gets the most attention for it.

I have one terrible video I made in 10 minutes a while back, Surprisingly it hit 400k views and is rated 4 1/2, Youtube is a weird place.

 

[Xanadeas]

I don't post anything on youtube, I just sit back and enjoy the free music.

 

[Souplex]

I don't even have an account. When Hulu came to be it erased all of my use for youtube, as I only used it to watch old TV shows anyway.

I don't hate him because he has never actually done anything to me. I don't care to ever watch him though.

i have music i make on my computer but i dont bother to convert them to a youtube format... btw, i fucking hate Fred.

 

[Low Key]

I posted a bunch of music videos. Haven't added to it for a while since I don't like to upload something someone else has. One of the video was getting 5,000 unique hits a day (2mil total), but then it got tagged for copyright and tons of ads started showing up, so I got pissed and deleted it. The video became unsynched in the upload process and really looked shitty too. I'm not sure how it got so many views.

Who's Fred? I don't get into the community at all. It's something about social commentary that makes me want to be a smartass, so I just tend to avoid it altogether.

 

[Anarchemitis]

I finished my Demoreel today. Don't mind the watermark, it's just to prevent wannabes and leechers.

I used to be the King of Star Wars Battlefront on Youtube, but then I stopped caring, long story short.

 

[6PrinceofDarkness6]

I only post good music so people don't have to worry about the ownership claims so much.

Who's Fred?

 

[War Penguin]

I don't have an account which I probably should. But posting there wouldn't be the same as posting here on the Escapist.

I did reviews, an MGS4 playthrough and other things. Gave away my account ever since and its at 10k subscribers now.

Only left my 2 most popular videos unremoved.

I do machinima and shit, so i guess this gives me an excuse to shamelessly plug myself if you want to youtube search my username. As for Partners, most of them really suck. youtube is so biased you either have to be a blogger or a child friendly entertainer to get a YT partnership. Ive got 26k subs and i can't seem to get one, DomFear has like, 50,000 and he can't get one, but some asian vlogger with 50 subs can get one no problem. There's some that i like, like machinima.com, SXEphil, and AmazingAtheist, but there's so many freds and nigahigas violating the title that as a whole they generally aren't very good

 

[Aura Guardian]

Mostly Wifi Brawl and PBR matches

Ok, thanks for being that person who has to get technical about the proper usage of the word "hate."

Perhaps I don't "hate" him, rather, I detest his existence.

 

[sms_117b]

I have posted 1 that stayed up, a second that was taken down because it used New Divide as the background music.

 

[Neurowaste]

I have 3 game videos and 1 music video uploaded, I'm not involved that much, but i sure use youtube a lot.
