When someone from YouTube is explaining to someone who knows nothing about YouTube what the site is, they DO NOT SAY EVERYTHING! The one thing we YouTubers avoid telling you is that there are A LOT of haters on the site. They are called trolls and are hated and loved. They are hated because you will work your booty off on a project you hold near and dear to your heart and as soon as you post it these trolls may or may not leave a very rude comment 'just for fun'. The smart people however do a very simple and smart thing, they ignore them. My mom always says that if you ignore a crazy person eventually they will leave you alone, and gosh darn it my mom IS right. We YouTubers used to get ridiculed as soon as we mentioned snything about YouTube.
We used to be treated like trash from television companies, but just last year rating have DROPPED LIKE FLIES from television shows. Does anyone know where those views have gone? YouTube. From the outside we YouTubers last year started to look like we knew what we were doing. Even though the majority did, there are still some that do not know simply WHY they visit this site!
A pen-pal and a vlogger made two almost similar videos. In these two videos they asked a simple question; Why are you on YouTube? It is a question similar to one asked five years ago when YouTube was still a child which was "Who are you?" That question made the YouTube community become more connected with each other. The present question however, we still do not know what it will bring. I am still hesitant to answer that question not because I do not know why I still am on YouTube, but because I have many answers and I do not know how to paraphrase, summarize os shorten them down. Many different people, however have answered that question, which I tip off my invisible hat to them.
My pen-pal, Cory's video is below. It is in two short parts.
Part one:
Part two:
The vlogger, ProjectCarTv's (as he's known on YouTube) video is a long one, but It contains GREAT AND PHILOSOPHOCAL ideas/questions. If you are in a tight schedule watch from 3:30 through about 10:00.
WARNING: IF YOU ONLY WATCH PART OF THE VIDEO YOU WILL LOSE GREAT CONTENT. Seriously please watch if fully it is great!
Bye and don't forget to follow/stalk me.
When I go on YouTube, I never read the comments. They depress me.
