I personally don't see anything wrong with people trying to advertise their content here, not just because I did it, but with stuff like game commentary (which it actually does take a lot of effort to be good at) it's very hard to differentiate yourself from so many others who are doing it, especially with competition from people who are just in it for cash like pewdiepie or tobuscus. Like yeah, my channel's partnered and I'd like to make a bit of a profit but I don't just do it for the money, I do it because I genuinely care about and have a genuine desire to entertain people, would you guys be saying the same thing if the game grumps were unknown and started trying to get viewers here? Sure this isn't perfect but I still commend him for trying to collect an audience.
@xfreak341xx thanks. I am not here for money, just here to show people my content...
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39337995]@xfreak341xx thanks. I am not here for money, just here to show people my content...[/QUOTE] It's no problem, I just don't think anybody deserves to be judged for doing something they love and trying to let other people enjoy it with them.
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39337995]@xfreak341xx thanks. I am not here for money, just here to show people my content...[/QUOTE] Hard to believe you are kindly sharing when we're giving you constructive criticism and you get irritated and try to act like you don't care. I mean this and ONLY this proves you are upset "lol..."
Aight then, :P
So you posted this, knowing you'd get negative comments, yet you still posted it anyway? Pretty sure that's probably classed as spam or something, or trolling.
No trolling, I knew i was going to get negative comments ... Yes, but all these comments are just stating I suck, and that I need to get better at commentating..... And that's what I am doing... It's not spam.

you should get me in your videos so i can upload my point of view and then people can watch vids for a third time
you and your boyfriend post your shitty videos elsewhere keep them off my facepunch
[QUOTE=spawny;39338147]you and your boyfriend post your shitty videos elsewhere keep them off my facepunch[/QUOTE] who are you
[QUOTE=mysteryman;39338136]it's spam when you get your buddy to upload essentially the exact same thing.[/QUOTE] That was my friends choice, and his video is different... He is recording from his view ......
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338253]That was my friends choice, and his video is different... He is recording from his view ......[/QUOTE] then post it in the same thread. Look at the gamegrumps thread. They're all different videos yet they're all posted in the same thread. When there's a good animated one it's posted in the same thread. Also those videos are actually quality videos. You need to work on basically everything about your videos from content, humor, entertainment, and editing.
was this supposed to be funny it just seemed like two guys playing a game
Just us having fun...
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338502]Just us having fun...[/QUOTE] And that's great. But that doesn't mean we find watching you have fun, well, fun to us. For that matter, what makes your commentary Let's Play videos different from the countless others on youtube? Also your buddy just raged quit his thread. Nice, mature, friend you got there.
It's because you all are just being assholes to him, because of my thread..... That's why, lol.... I understand you are giving constructive words about everything, but they aren't even that constructive... Constructive would be a 7 paragraph sentence of why it's bad and how I can improve it... Saying that I suck at commentarys, need to hit puberty and other stuff.. Doesn't help me out.
I can agree that the "advice" given isn't that constructive, it should still have meaning to you. Although it isn't a very demanding seven paragraph report you should be able to gather some basic input from it. A good example is that most people find the content boring and unoriginal. Making comments about the ones that make no constructive points at all simply makes your image worse. Also, he would've been banned for joining just to advertise his content. He would've been banned regardless.
Don't go on Facepunch and promote yourself, and then immediately insult us. I see you have 150 posts and you didn't come here to just promote but unless it's well done, we don't want to see it. No-one here likes let's players or basically anything like that. I can exclude Game Grumps because JonTron and Egoraptor are two very funny people and they're just doing it for fun.
I'm doing it for fun too.. I am listening to these words of everyone... But they're not constructive enough for me to care.

[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338570]I'm doing it for fun too.. I am listening to these words of everyone... But they're not constructive enough for me to care.[/QUOTE] but you're not funny.
Alright, wasn't trying to be funny... Just trying to commentate... Commentarys don't ALWAYS have to be fun, do they?

Actually be entertaining in the video. Film over a period then cut out the fluff. Don't just play a game then upload the footage. Title your videos other than just "SIMPLY PLAYING XXX" that's boring. Learn how to take criticism while you are at it. You treat every post with dumb angry replies regardless if they offered advice to you or not. Oh and most importantly, don't tell viewers to mute your fucking video if your voice is high pitched and annoying. If your voice is that bad you shouldn't be doing commentaries in the first place. If you still refuse to comply to something like that. Learn how to record the audio on a separate channel and edit out the worst parts of it, or lower the volume. So far though your videos are not memorable or entertaining at all. It's as if i'm watching home movies of people i don't know. Yeah it may be fun for you to watch them but that's only because it's your video with your friends and yourself. You need to do something that hasn't been done before by the LP community. Or attain a very good sense of humor and make up for the lack of originality with entertaining jokes and bits.
Then your failure has already come, because no one is going to write why they dislike your content and how you can improve it. Either ignore everyone, or make sense out of what might be to you a pool of insults.
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338570]I'm doing it for fun too.. I am listening to these words of everyone... But they're not constructive enough [B]for me to care.[/B][/QUOTE] Secondly. Lose this fucking attitude. Don't post videos then if someone says something like "it was pretty bad" don't go off on a tangent about how "OMG I DUNT CARE SAY SUMTHING NICE OR NUTHING AT ALL I DNT HAVE 2 LISTEN 2 U I DO THIS 4 ME NOT U" This post and the other post earlier just made me dislike you instantly and even more so the second time around.
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338578]Alright, wasn't trying to be funny... Just trying to commentate... Commentarys don't ALWAYS have to be fun, do they?[/QUOTE] You have a point, but we don't want [B]this[/B]
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338578]Alright, wasn't trying to be funny... Just trying to commentate... Commentarys don't ALWAYS have to be fun, do they?[/QUOTE] The point of commentaries are to entertain the viewer. You can avoid this and try to have fun as you normally would, but judging by the way this has been going i'd imagine you should gear toward entertaining the viewer more.
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338578]Alright, wasn't trying to be funny... Just trying to commentate... Commentarys don't ALWAYS have to be fun, do they?[/QUOTE] The only time i can excuse a commentary for not being fun is if it were a political or philosophical commentary on legitimate topics. Those are done for informative purposes. When it comes to video game commentaries you need to always be entertaining or don't expect views. Game commentaries are done for entertainment purposes.
[QUOTE=KiNG3;39338570]I'm doing it for fun too.. I am listening to these words of everyone... But they're not constructive enough for me to care.[/QUOTE] You want constructive criticism? Fine. At this point, your video doesn't even matter. If you advertise your video, and people don't like it, consider asking "what's wrong with it?" and "what should I do differently?" You don't fucking blow off the criticism and say "I don't care what you say lol videos are my hobby and I will keep posting my videos for you to enjoy lol sorry." You're not doing yourself any favors by going down that path like you have been. [editline]23rd January 2013[/editline] and yeah lose the fucking attitude
