Thumbnails are for fun and little more views but click bait ?  No way,  they haven't done that . 

And what mistakes do you mean ?

But I agree , they are growing really fast but i think they can handle it .

A few days ago they made one about expanding battery life, i mean that's just cringy stuff it's awful.

And there was an ad spot again a few days ago where the audio was a second behind or ahead of the video.

 

They also did some tests that were, average... The video about backplates was flawed because they only looked at temps (yes i know even with fan speed in mind it was still debateable but fan speed was different but not mentioned) and the one about i think thermal paste, not sure that was also flawed because the cpu was just not putting out enough heat to show a decent difference. If they used a hotter cpu or one that was overclocked the differences would be bigger.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Nope, she left after 2 weeks of working at LMG. Check out the WAN show from this last week @ 1:01:40

No... Linus clearly says she left 2 weeks after 3mo probation had ended. And that Berkel will be there for another 2 weeks.

You miss understand what he said. In 2 weeks. Two people quit. Chelsea was first in a video in December for the Razer giveaway. She was then in a video a few months after that throwing axes. And in a video after that about "honest answers". She was not there for 2 weeks. Nick and her quit within 2 weeks.

Nicky V is leaving LTT.

This seems a little fishy to me. And the way Linus and Luke said on the WAN show its even more peculiar.

Why oh why would Nick leave a profitable YT channel, safe and secure employment to venture out into Sports Filming. I mean he aint gunna be no Warren Miller, taking a pay cut while he is at it too. I wonder why then Linus is letting him go, maybe got fired or layed off, maybe stole something, maybe this, maybe that. His best bet leaving on good terms is to get a layed off notice so he can get on EI and chill out for 8 months on a beach in Mexico.

Because he loves being outdoors. An opportunity arose to be involved in a sport that he loves and he's running with it... some people live for adventure and follow their dreams, Some don't have the balls and settle for quote "safe and secure employment".
 

Nick all the best mate, Hope the trails are smooth and the kickers fresh!!!

As another video they did showed, Linus put everything into starting LTT and Nick is doing kind of what I did with jobs, I used to be a flat deck tow truck driver but I left that company due to the owner (not saying that's the reason for him leaving), but I ended up going into auto parts delivery for a way lower wage than what I got towing, but i'm enjoying myself more because I like cars and such.

 

Good luck Nick, it would be nice to see you at the LTT meetup just to meet you once in person.

Probably the same reason Linus left his previous employer.  He quit a stable job with a reasonable future for hella stress.  I'm sure Nicky V will be happy in his new role, and will have no regrets.  Sometimes you gotta take a plunge and pay cut to find your dream. 

 

Also getting fired for stealing would not generate a kind response at any point in time in any video.  This sounds like leaving on good terms, not bad.

It is my business and yes it does matter. You see marriage and offspring puts an aura of maturity behind the man. Plus, especially for Youtubers, it gives their audience a sense of who they are. Their character!

Please explain how knowing details of his personal life is your business?

if you read, you will learn Linus revealed this info on the WAN show. 

I don't need to know the details of his personal life... @yathis is the one wanting to know.

Knowing ones character is huge, especially being a Youtuber.

Why though... like is your life so insignificant that you need to delve into an employee of a media company's personal life?

People leave jobs for all sorts of reasons, Luke and Linus cleared the air on the WAN show, there is no need to delve further. If you're a fan of Nicks work follow him on social media and hopefully we will see snippets of his life moving forward. But asking about his personal life just to come to a conclusion about why he left LMG is highly inappropriate and downright creepy.
