Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) So I just went to watch a RoosterTeeth video and instead of an ad I got a YouTube Survey. The question was "Where does your dog sleep?" and it was multiple choice... Gave me 10s to answer then as soon as I answered the video started. Weird Ive never seen this before. It looked legit too and didnt redirect me to another page. Anyone else had this before?

Posted January 23, 2014 Good, now Slick won't be able to eat. He probably makes $1 a year off me if I come here every day. Besides, there is the fact that I don't care.

Just turn it off for them, and all other youtubers who make their living. If you respect them, just view a 5s every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 30, 2014 Good, now Slick won't be able to eat. It's still a mystery whether he needs to eat or not. But he did said "it's good to have a roof" once so I assume he's only working to shelter himself from the harsh Canadian weather. I actually prefer these surveys better. Good way to conduct surverys and get feedbacks, doesn't take as much time from me because I don't wanna watch a 15s unskippable ad that isn't even good or repeated so many times.

Posted January 30, 2014 I havent ever seen those but Hulu has been doing stuff like this for quite a while. I dont mind it when it works well, but sometimes it gliches and i have to refresh the page and wait for a new ad to load. Hopefully google is better about it.
