i am verry much part of the youtube community but until recently i didn't make proper videos. i think it should be mentioned that you don't have to make videos to be part of the community.
I got totally freeked out at the fact that I was sat here eating jellybabies and then you offered me a jellybaby.. o.O
And I would love to be a part of a youtube community, but i don't make videos so its really hard, but yeah, youtube friendships are just like any other friendship..
I see people that can communicate with others on the other side of the world and who have formed strong friendships and communities with so many people ...
I see it as an amazing community and it's so cool when you find out two of the people you are subscribed to are friends and make birthday videos and stuff...it's just so so cool.
it's an interesting question you've posed. I'm not a youtuber though I do have internet friends, and have been told the same thing. In my experience, those you meet on the internet can be better friends then people you know in 'real life'. I've never met my best friend, and as much as that sucks sometimes because I'd like to be able to give him a hug or go out for a pint with him, we wouldn't be as close are we are if we hadn't met through the medium of the internet, so I wouldn't change it.
@littleradge I think there (possibley incorrect use of there) are three types. The two you mentioned and the third type who are people who have alot of friends irl but they also have friends (or would like to make friends) that they've met through youtube.
I think the youtube community is a great thing; people all over the world can talk and have friendships and the fact that it's all done via video means that you know are talking to a real person, so it's much more personal.
Having said that, sometimes I really don't like watching the videos of gatherings; it's purely a jealousy/feeling left out thing, because I live in the countryside, so the gatherings are never near me or expensive to get to.

Thing 1: I already know they are two different countries;Thing 2: what game?; Thing 3: I think you did a tongue flick in the midnight dancing vid. Was that intentional?, because you might've scarred your "Voyage of the Damned" promo poster for the rest of its life.
Youtubers are totally friends!! XD my view is tho that online freindships can be more hurtful as people can't see you face to face often so might take unoffencive things as offensive so I kinda avoid them myself now xD is cool while it's friendly though
if I nicked the Tardis for a bit and went back to 2008 on the 27th of January (probably pop back for a jumper because England is ALWAYS cold but January is just depressing, thats why I wear lumious stuff) and went to the countryside, worked my way through from Somerset to Devon to uhh some more countryside and went to every pub and finally found you THEN could I have a jelly baby???
I think that YouTube is a brilliant community were friends can be made. I would love to be more involved such as going to gatherings but the fact that a) I'm 15 b) I don't make videos makes me feel as though it would just be awkward for everyone involved. I
I know this was a mega mega long time ago- like 'nomi hasnt got her a level results yet' long time ago- but when I see all the vlogs and the collabs and everything- I wish i could go to the meetups and make my own and get stuck in but am always stuck with a major case of "i have nothing of interest to say" - that being said, theres different groups of YT friends- I'm big with fanvideos and the like, tho even then, I'm not a major one- i.e. it isnt one a day every day- interesting questions :)
I just started making videos, and i thought about gatherings for a while though. I think the fact is that they just cater for a specific type of youtuber. For one, you have to be pretty old, i'd say 17+ otherwise your parents might find it weird that you meeting people on the internet, no matter how interesting/nice they seem. Also, its mainly in london in this country, so it might be expensive for people like me who are in manchester. Also, I think you'll feel out of place if you aren't popular
I think that this community is an interesting place. I don't make videos myself, since I just haven't got the time, but I do think that people can make friends online. If they couldn't I know at least two of the bands I listen to on a regular basis wouldn't exist.
Hmm...well I can't make videos until I'm 16 because my parents are paranoid and stuff, but I'd love to make videos and go to gatherings and stuff because I seem to relate to people on the internet more than most people my age/at my school, but I kinda feel cut-off because I can't make videos for another three years, and most of my favourite Youtubers wouldn't want to be friends with a random 13 year old anyway.
I think Youtube is amazing and awesome and brilliant. I'm gonna start making videos next year because of all the vids I've seen of people having fun vlogging. Though right now I'm a blogger.
I think the YT community is really amazing. I'm not involved in video making as I have no confidence but if I did, I would love to be part of the YT community as everyone just seems to get along really well. I was in London recently and saw a YT gathering and thought it looked like everyone was happy.
just got my first you tube account just so i can subscribe to ur videos, they are so good, and u have a really good voice (sing to the 8 ball) was not expecting that at all, anyway will stop writing so u dont get sick of me in my first ever you tube comment, thnx 4 posting!
if you didn't want "other nationalities" coming to your country then you probably shouldn't have invaded most of those other nationalities' homelands. just a thought.
I think the YT community is great - I'm not really involved, I don't make videos or anything, purely because I think I'm too awkward to be entertaining! xD but I do think it's a great way to meet people and the events look like fun :)
I dont make videos. I could but i'm so busy with uni and i suppose i'm a little shy for want of a better word. However i do believe youtube is the most wonderful way to make friends and meet new people. I have many friends that make videos, one of my friends organised a gathering in edinburgh and john green attended since it was before the book festival! it was one of the best days of my life! just getting to meet new people in such a beautiful location! it was so much fun :)
I just watch videos on youtube and always want to make videos on youtube but don't have a camera, a computer with a camera, or any ideas. So I stick to just watching videos. When I see info about gatherings it's usually in england (Except when I watched one of owlssayhoot's videos, where there was a gathering in seattle ((which is about 15 miles from where I live)), but I was two months too late :( ) so I never go to gatherings.
I tend to look at the Youtube community as a high school type setting. Only, it's generally a LOT less harsh and a lot more fun. There are a lot of people that are entertaining or that I wish I knew better, but that I never really feel like I have an attachment or connection to. Then there are others that I really connect with and relate to, these people feel like my friends and I truly care about them. It's definately a real community, just better than it would be in real life in a lot of ways.
I believe it's a real community. To be honest, I am jealous of you guys :) The friendships are in a way stronger, simply because you get to know people who have a lot in common with you (ie complete geeks XD) from all over the place. It looks like so much fun... But I don't make Youtube videos. For a couple of reasons, I live in New Zealand so could never participate in Youtube gatherings, and I don't know what I could actully talk about. Also I have no musical talent.
What do I think about the Youtube Community? In my personal opinion, even though I don't necessarily take part in it, I think it is a real community. Friendships are between people who have something in common, and I don't think it matter whether you find that commonality online or in person. I think people are a little too closed minded about things that they don't understand or makes them feel uncomfortable.
I just have an account so I can subscribe to people because I felt bad I was watching them yet not making them more popular and I think gatherings are really good but I wouldn't personally go to one because I don't feel I have the right too because I don't make videos! That's my opinion of the community of YouTube and I think Liam is really cool as well :D
ooooooooooooooooo kaaaaaaaaay what i think of youtube gatherings? GOOD. THEY IS GOOD. I have never been to a youtube gathering but I know gatherings are alot of fun so... woop woop!
Friends over Internet?
ok, it is a lil' odd, but if you get to know them well, then... why not?
Why has there not been any comments here for a year?? :( well now im going to comment for the sake of it, and i dont feel like thinking cause its 1 AM and incapable of thinking this late, BUT i do LOVESS your videos!! :D
I'm a couple years late on this discussion, story of my life. I've only recently started watching YouTube regularly, as in earlier this year. The majority of the cool stuff to watch is out of date. My constant reaction is 'I wish I had known about that and/or had enough money so I could go there and meet all those cool people' I see true friendship, and, if I meet anyone who watches what I watch, I know we'll have a lot in common. So of course we'll be friends! But that hasn't happened yet.
Love your vids toots :) you've got a great look on life, don't change that for anyone! Ive spent a lot of time in London recently! It scares me down there.. theres no hills!! Im from Aberdeen so I'm used to hills... and losing mobile signal as soon as you step out of a built up area! :p
I also do a lot of poi/fire spinning and flow arts and have met amazing people... none of whom I would have met without the use of les internets! So Mr "wwwdot" I Salute you! ...and give you big hugs! ^_^
I love the youtube community, i'm so jealous of the friends people make online. i watch others and really enjoy many youtubers vids espeacially collabs such as fiveawesomegirls and guys and it shows true friendship. I believe that you can totally make really close friends online in a way you can't outside. When you meet people offline you find out about them, then decide whether they are like you enough to be your friend, its the opposite online, you get to know them before you meet them.
(well i did in December but im getting into it now)
I love the community! I think it is a great way to make friends, and I hope to get to some gatherings and such. I planed to go to vidcon but my swing choir tour got in the way. I want to get known more so I'm trying to make some vlogs or videos (and my own who series). I really liked this video! :D i know this comment is coming late lol :P
To answer your question littleradge I think that I see good friends, I see that they are a group of people that aren't afraid to put themselves out there and introduce themselves to the world!
i dont make vids but when i see stuff with like gatherings and shit, i dunno you all seem like celebs like your real ppl and real friends but on a whole different universe if that makes any sence at all. but yeh would be sick to be part of the community.
I agree, youtube friends are real friends... sometimes. Let me explain. I'm not in the youtube community because my webcam SUCKS, and I'm not that interesting (^_^) but I have made 2 amazing friends on a website called livejournal, both in separate countries. We've never met but I chat regularly with one, and whenever I catch the other through the 5 hour time gap, and intend to meet both within 2 years. So yes, if you make an effort and hit it off, cyber friends ARE real friends. :)
haha nice video mate! be careful i came here just to learn english and then i thought : ah just one year more,and then here i am ,10 years living in England !! i even decided to make videos teaching other foreigner how to understand thing over here ,but you got english as a first language and that is a big advantage !! great videos carry on :)
when i saw the vid on the glasgow gathing i totally wished i was there, it looked so much fun and something like what me and my close friends would do. i dont make videos but would love to and never really know what to say in one. I think you can totally be friends over the internet.
I'm not really involved in the community and don't make any videos (YET!), but i think it's wonderful that you guys are meeting up and making friends and stuff x3 i think the internet might even be a BETTER way to make friends in some ways, i mean you're not restricted to only meeting people that live where you do, you can meet all kinds of different people from different cultures all over the world =] far more variety! I aprove ^_^
I think the community is great and you can make great friends online. I don't personally use youtube as much as other websites, but I know where you're coming from cause of the people I've met in other online communities. I would try and be on the youtube one more but I'm too young to put my face on the internet for my own safety probably. Great vid, loving the T-shirt x
Hello. There are cool things on the net. (I really enjoyed your "Truth about David Tennet" Blog. Discussing that would be very cool, at least there is entertainment value.) But there are also very stupid things on the net. I think gathering and discussing Sally's 15th music video in tribute to The Doctor or Little Ben's 24th video dedicated to David's gay kisses on stage, is on the stupid side. I think it comes down to what are they doing? Are they wasting time or doing something worthwhile?
Friendships are friendships, whether their made over Youtube or not.
but then theres the people who wanna be friends with some other guy(s) but they say that buddy requests and stuff like that are for friends only, as in really close friends only :( wah.
Lol I love how Alex, Charlie and Liam all saty goodbye the same way. It's adorable. And yes, I believe that you guys are all good friends in R.L. It's awesome watching videos that interconnect with each other :D
GRRRR this video made me loose the game (not cuz I didn't know England and Scottland are separate countries, I did know that. but when you said lost the game I thought about the game and of course by definition, lost the game). NOT FAIR!!!!
I'm new to youtube, which is why I'm replying ages late, but i feel that friends are people you genuinely want to know more about. To me, they're people who (although they may live forever and 12 years away) stick in your mind as someone you either 1) know a lot about by information supplied by them or 2) want to know more about because they have common interests with you. I want to get more into the youtube community, but am currently hesitant about the video making, so I'm working my way up.
Of course YouTube friendships are real friendships!
Especially if you go all out with the gatherings and whatnot.
I've always wanted to go, but have never been able to convince anyone - and if I were to convince anyone, it'd be my cousin who is in the rather same area of vidders as I am - to go with me :(
On a totally unrelated note, you have superfantastic hair.
Lol hi hogwartshonorroll. I was just surprised to see your comment here so I thought I'd say hello :) And of course I agree with your comment , have a nice day!
Aside from the odd comment, I've not really put anything into the Youtube community...yet. (Be careful Lil'Radge, you may have unleashed something unpleasant on the world!)
However, it's obvious to anyone watching that you guys have bonded and formed real friendships over time, no matter how it happened. It's special to you, and so it's stupid for others to say that that's not real.
I guess the important thing is balance. As long as you can juggle Youtube-life and 'real'-life, it's all good!
you can't laught together, can't experience things together, and blablabla, but I have respect for it and i perfectly understand the people who think of it as a real community
my opinion 'bout the youtube-community is that indeed; you can make really good friends, and sometimes people get married! so that's fucking awesome! but then you've got the other side of the medaillon; 1. I don't really believe you can have the same feeling as with real people. because if you live 200 miles away from each other or you live in difrent country's,
I think it's absolutely amazing! To be able to connect with people on a personal level with people thousands of miles away through space and time(zones). Not only is the internet being used for communication and info. but it is used to create meaningful relationships aswell. I think it's awesome :P
i think that youtube is a great comunity with get power over other things outside of youtube. youtube connects people around the world that you would have never met before. like, imagine if you never met min! that would suck, right? i dont know how you met her, but i bet that there are SOOOOOO many ways that people could meet on the internet. i guess that it can be distracting from real life, but like all things you have to limit yourself. just the way it works.
Facebook friends aren't normally real friends. I think YouTube is so much more friendly than people you know in real life

When I see info about gatherings it's usually in england (Except when I watched one of owlssayhoot's videos, where there was a gathering in seattle ((which is about 15 miles from where I live)), but I was two months too late :( ) so I never go to gatherings.

I tend to look at the Youtube community as a high school type setting. Only, it's generally a LOT less harsh and a lot more fun. There are a lot of people that are entertaining or that I wish I knew better, but that I never really feel like I have an attachment or connection to. Then there are others that I really connect with and relate to, these people feel like my friends and I truly care about them. It's definately a real community, just better than it would be in real life in a lot of ways.

I believe it's a real community. To be honest, I am jealous of you guys :) The friendships are in a way stronger, simply because you get to know people who have a lot in common with you (ie complete geeks XD) from all over the place. It looks like so much fun... But I don't make Youtube videos. For a couple of reasons, I live in New Zealand so could never participate in Youtube gatherings, and I don't know what I could actully talk about. Also I have no musical talent.

What do I think about the Youtube Community? In my personal opinion, even though I don't necessarily take part in it, I think it is a real community. Friendships are between people who have something in common, and I don't think it matter whether you find that commonality online or in person. I think people are a little too closed minded about things that they don't understand or makes them feel uncomfortable.
This was a wonderful video. Thanks for posting.

I just have an account so I can subscribe to people because I felt bad I was watching them yet not making them more popular and I think gatherings are really good but I wouldn't personally go to one because I don't feel I have the right too because I don't make videos! That's my opinion of the community of YouTube and I think Liam is really cool as well :D

I'm a couple years late on this discussion, story of my life. I've only recently started watching YouTube regularly, as in earlier this year. The majority of the cool stuff to watch is out of date. My constant reaction is 'I wish I had known about that and/or had enough money so I could go there and meet all those cool people' I see true friendship, and, if I meet anyone who watches what I watch, I know we'll have a lot in common. So of course we'll be friends! But that hasn't happened yet.

I love the youtube community, i'm so jealous of the friends people make online. i watch others and really enjoy many youtubers vids espeacially collabs such as fiveawesomegirls and guys and it shows true friendship. I believe that you can totally make really close friends online in a way you can't outside. When you meet people offline you find out about them, then decide whether they are like you enough to be your friend, its the opposite online, you get to know them before you meet them.

I want to get known more so I'm trying to make some vlogs or videos (and my own who series). I really liked this video! :D i know this comment is coming late lol :P

I agree, youtube friends are real friends... sometimes. Let me explain. I'm not in the youtube community because my webcam SUCKS, and I'm not that interesting (^_^) but I have made 2 amazing friends on a website called livejournal, both in separate countries. We've never met but I chat regularly with one, and whenever I catch the other through the 5 hour time gap, and intend to meet both within 2 years. So yes, if you make an effort and hit it off, cyber friends ARE real friends. :)

Hello. There are cool things on the net. (I really enjoyed your "Truth about David Tennet" Blog. Discussing that would be very cool, at least there is entertainment value.) But there are also very stupid things on the net. I think gathering and discussing Sally's 15th music video in tribute to The Doctor or Little Ben's 24th video dedicated to David's gay kisses on stage, is on the stupid side. I think it comes down to what are they doing? Are they wasting time or doing something worthwhile?

but then theres the people who wanna be friends with some other guy(s) but they say that buddy requests and stuff like that are for friends only, as in really close friends only :( wah.

I'm new to youtube, which is why I'm replying ages late, but i feel that friends are people you genuinely want to know more about. To me, they're people who (although they may live forever and 12 years away) stick in your mind as someone you either 1) know a lot about by information supplied by them or 2) want to know more about because they have common interests with you. I want to get more into the youtube community, but am currently hesitant about the video making, so I'm working my way up.
CalamityPlanet 2 years ago
Of course YouTube friendships are real friendships!
Especially if you go all out with the gatherings and whatnot.
I've always wanted to go, but have never been able to convince anyone - and if I were to convince anyone, it'd be my cousin who is in the rather same area of vidders as I am - to go with me :(
On a totally unrelated note, you have superfantastic hair.

Aside from the odd comment, I've not really put anything into the Youtube community...yet. (Be careful Lil'Radge, you may have unleashed something unpleasant on the world!)
However, it's obvious to anyone watching that you guys have bonded and formed real friendships over time, no matter how it happened. It's special to you, and so it's stupid for others to say that that's not real.
I guess the important thing is balance. As long as you can juggle Youtube-life and 'real'-life, it's all good!

my opinion 'bout the youtube-community is that indeed; you can make really good friends, and sometimes people get married! so that's fucking awesome! but then you've got the other side of the medaillon; 1. I don't really believe you can have the same feeling as with real people. because if you live 200 miles away from each other or you live in difrent country's,

i think that youtube is a great comunity with get power over other things outside of youtube. youtube connects people around the world that you would have never met before. like, imagine if you never met min! that would suck, right? i dont know how you met her, but i bet that there are SOOOOOO many ways that people could meet on the internet. i guess that it can be distracting from real life, but like all things you have to limit yourself. just the way it works.
