A sad video, and a content creator YouTube problem.

@Slick

Just watched this today. I watch this guy's videos a lot. He's got a good formula, but he's been struggling ever since the YouTube demonitization issue.

He's done a few "rant" videos, but the rest of his content is pretty solid. He's trying to change his formula to fit in with the YouTube policies, but it's affecting his content now.

I know you guys aren't there to "rescue" people, but I do feel for the guy. I've been watching him since 2011. Anyway, I mentioned it in the Floatplane suggestions/content thread, but his channels are MxR Mods and MxR Plays.

 

So, simple questions: Would this be appropriate content for Floatplane?

No no, just a tag. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Didn't intend it to seem that way.

if the guy has fans willing to pay, yes, not sure slick will let just anyone in.

havent watched his stuff in a while, but i loved his skyrim mod videos.

great personality.

whats happening with him? (at work and cant check his stuff)

 

honestly i dont think he'd be a good fit for floatplane though. especially since they were talking about only putting people they know and trust a lot on the platform first

Basically he's trying to change his content to work within YouTube's program, and it's not working. No matter what he tries. He's frustrated, and you can see it plain as day on his face. They're only allowing monetization on his streaming videos, and he's not thrilled about the prospect of converting to a full streaming channel. Every video he uploads no matter how much content he scrubs in editing, gets demonitized as fast as a day or two. Even his IRL videos with Jeannie are being affected. It's sad really.
He tries to stay positive like in most of his videos, but you can read between the lines on this one.

ahh that makes sense. a lot of his mods arent "advertiser friendly" so i can imagine them getting de-monetized really quickly"

If it was only the mods, that would be fine. But it's almost everything that he does, besides streaming, or if he circumvents the word filters.

poor dude. 

Got sued by another "mod author" for featuring a mod in his yt video. Didn't have the money to defend himself so he had to comply.
