LEAVING YouTube. The Final Word.

[ydh3324]

go kill yourself lil bitch!

[Flamingrune77]

lol, Myspace.

[Spongebobvideopants]

dailymotion is good

[TheCreeperhunter]

I understand why people have such a problem with youtube, but it really doesn't bother me. Youtube is so big it only makes sense it would act like a large corporation. Just life as far as I'm conscerned.

[Jerjer907]

revver and livevideo didn't work

[TitoPortu]

revver is closed?

[WindFamiliar]

Love the commentary on competition, and you're pretty much spot-on. O wait, LOL, you have a bachelor's in business *bonks own head* of course you know that. Anyway, that sort of stuff always gets my attention; I'm an Econ student currently myself. ^.^

[shadydawg555]

2 you didnt mention *But this was made in 2008* is Dailymotion and Blip.tv

Honestly, I think Blip.tv is the BEST alternative!

[thejamaicaterror]

@shadydawg555 blip.tv forever!

[steveandbobsho]

thats sounds like EA were they can buy rights to be the only nfl football game

[Awesomeness929]

Yup. Bye youtube

[Melvman24]

know of any video sharing sites to avoid. I was wanting to create a video about that, but I can only think of one site, and that would be gametrailers

[S0UL3RDX]

Im leaving youtube today just got boring and im to busy with school, last comment to.

[DUSATV]

Time to leave head to Vimeo

[nazno]

Yeah, I'm leaving. Good stuff is getting too hard to find on YouTube.

[nazno]

I'm leaving YOuTube and Google (Big Brother is Watching!!!).  Thanks for INfo.

[EbolaV1rus]

Clipser is great, try it.

[kaffemat]

at 1:21 it sounds like you say my name ^^

Truls ^^

[osullytony]

the guy who created the first car started by trying to make a new faster bike with 4 wheels to go faster while still stable small things lead to big things

[osullytony]

dude ur complaining about ppl complaining ur like 15 grow up everyone is entitled to their own opinion if no 1 went and tried to revolutionise the world we would all still be in caves killing animals with clubs for our meals.

[MCSizzle1116]

Did you just compare people trying to "revolutionize" by leaving Youtube to how the world we know it progressed?

[xaioxaio11]

haha no offense to renneto but he reminds me of big bob from rob and big XD

[gshowguy]

Have you tried Dailymotion? That's another good alternative to YouTube, or you can try Vidder as well. At least they aren't money-hungry bastards like YouTube is now.

[ForFun808]

I never really tried those sites.. is it good?

[smexyboii]

daily motion is great! =D i often find vids that i can't find on youtube there!

[ForFun808]

Damn dude, great way to put it!

[champagnevoluptuous]

You Tube promotes CRAP because Disney and Viacom are TAKING OVER and they want more insipid Jonas Brothers and Jamie Lynn Spears followers/sheep to sell their mindless, mediocre crap. They KNOW their main audience are CHILDREN and idiots. I am LEAVING You Tube!

[champagnevoluptuous]

THANKS FOR POSTING THIS!!!

[bleeda2]

good video i agree fred isnt that grea hes a little funny but its not that much effort

[kawaiifreak860]

hmm whatever.

[loluntilmypie]

At times the internet sucks big balls. Sometimes it says to you "You rock for using the internet a lot!"

[rudder11]

Fuck you Jap

[Alectheant555]

Well screw you ,racist scumbag.

[ForFun808]

It creates more exposure, and gives YouTube actual competitors

[villanova1720]

I thought of leaving youtube 1nce. I had trouble getting set up this is my 3rd account the other two i had a wrong e-mail addres.

[conninja333]

to bad cuz im leaving YouTube because of RelationShip problems

[xaioxaio11]

lol i watched that guys video who you replied to with this, wow what a loser seriously he's leaving youtube because other videos have more views than his XD i mean really who the hell cares about that guy and if he leaves youtube or not, his videos suck LMAO

[myaudioqueen]

Thank you.

[RIKIEatHOME]

as much as i love youtube it pisses me off to....

[keepachris]

get away from ur comp fair enough i love youtube but you like couldnt live without it

[risingunn]

yes i agree,alot of ppl make great vids and are overlooked.

[z3ro146]

myspace also connects well with youtube ofcourse who doesnt know that

[smilyFENIX]

holy crap i thought you were leaving youtube lol

[Rz4n]

yeah...i like it...nice...-_-

[imakevideosreally]

u stop bitching on popular online things

[mark727111]

whats wrong with competition it will make for better sites and more options! also youtube has many restrictions we need a totally unedited site that allows anything except for illegal stuff! you tube shows gyno visits uncesored but no nudity???? does that make sense also they remove videos if someone flags it wether or not it is bad! and free speech itsn always allowed!

[ForFun808]

You obviously never paid attention to the video... fail

[megamarsonic]

... 0:47 - 0:57 is your friend...

[w1z0fvids]

so ur saying ur disagreein with aaron?fuck u!

[WilliamsBrianL]

great video man....I'm going to check out some of the other sites you talked about and upload my videos there. 5 *****

[kNIGHTWING01]

Unless YouTube partners are flagging your videos copy right infringement, because your reviews make Ign and Gamespot look preschoolers =P

[NoBullshitTV]

Excellent video Aron! Youtube is biased, sad but true.

[ShadowTheHedgehog157]

Very in depth. that's all I have to say.

5/5

[Mutough]

I sometimes go down to Megavideo. The site isn't very good. Has a few nice ideas, but it's overall a last resort.

[wabitgirl]

It's nice to see that someone who is so well loved and received on Youtube is also willing to endorse and support other sites.

[ForFun808]

Ironically every video site has featured me EXCEPT YouTube. lol

[RandomShadowMan]

Other video sites are always open to new people instead of the same people over and over.

[roboshark3]

i agree with you. but if more people goes to like revver. they may have to go with the same shitty path youtube follows.

[ForFun808]

perhaps your right

[yoyofr33k]

holy crow youll have to be 18 just to sign up!now i have to wait till i post up stuff on revver -.-

[gwrebel101]

Youtube is way better then metacafe.

[IcyNami]

You know, people just feel at home with youtube. Its just not the same on another site. You cant duplicate the people.

[karuk7575]

really wierd how ig got to be partner and not avgn.

[ForFun808]

cuz youtube can be dumb

[Melvman24]

@karuk7575 I think the only reason AVGN Isn't a partner is because he is partnered with both screwattack and gametrailers because they might sue. Don't get me wrong, IG sucks, but if he wasn't with both those companies, he may be a partner.

[IMZEECATMAN]

@karuk7575 avgn can be a partner, he just doesn't try to get one

[chadtyman]

how much u get paid on metacafe

[ForFun808]

I haven't checked lately, but it should show on my profile

[chadtyman]

ok kewl. LUV DIS VID!

[GTAmaniac612]

I dont like metacafe very much I left metacafe and came here to youtube. And youtube alternatives will suck like youtube in the future. companys just want to make money and thats what youtube is a company who wants to make money.

[GeoPowa]

This was really awesome. You made a good point on this video. Imma go check out some sites, maybe some sites not fred infested ^_^

[ForFun808]

or sites with less bullshit

[GeoPowa]

arent they the same?

[12AirJordan12]

dude i agree with this 100%, i think there should be a more equal oppertunity to get featured on here.....like you, u make quality videos....not like the retard fred

[CheezyDoDo973]

you forgot BlogTv

[ForFun808]

its pretty new, although I've never used it yet

[CheezyDoDo973]

Yea its so cool

they got live shows and everything

[jweinrub]

That was very well said there Aron! I'll have to check out some of those sites. Revver does look pretty good as well. I'll stay on Youtube for now cause I've met some interesting people. I don't care if my videos don't get featured as long as I entertain people like you and everyone else, that's great for me. Great rant and keep entertaining and informing. :) :)

[ForFun808]

i will always do just that!

[jweinrub]

Awesome!

[LuckyPikachu]

you make good points in all your videos

[ForFun808]

Yes they say I should be President. I'd be too honest to be President!!!

[BloodGTRproductions]

the worse of the worst parter ChrisCrocker(Real name Chris Cocksucker)

[derektherock42]

The people who run YouTube hardly give people any freedom any more. Videos are deleted left and right for unjust reasons. So I'm starting to lose my trust in YouTube.

[fierceblade97]

You forgot Dailymotion and AOL Videos

[Snifflator45]

great vid, but was that your closet you went through?

[ForFun808]

Of course, my closet is so big it has a hallway

[Snifflator45]

cool

[mynameisDavid92]

ah so had to COME OUT OF YOUR CLOSET, to go in your room eh?

lol

[FreezeCrackerFun]

your eyes are pretty far apart

[doppleganger4827]

Thanks for the video, I was wondering about others sites if I ever plan to post future videos elsewhere. And good points about youtube in general, there are a lot of talented users that should be noticed more than usual.

[ForFun808]

Yeah, there are so many good videos and channels on YouTube, but we gotta dig for them to find them!

[daredevil570]

thanx for the advice

i needed to find out where to make money off my vids

[ForFun808]

noooo problem

[cybersaur]

AVGN has GameTrailers/ScrewAttack where he is very opular and gets payed plus his own website, Cinemassacre, I visit them more than Youtube and if I could I would sponsor.

[cheesemanjeff]

Man i dont care if noone likes your videos.I happen to love them they make me laugh alot and your funny man.Fuck the haters!!

Goodluck to you man keep making videos

[ParamoreXLover15]

wow, im sorry but, your videos aren't that well done...

[SongSephen]

you full my head with ache.

[mrpoultry]

'full' its fill, and by the way why did you watch it if you didn't like it let alone comment it.

[SongSephen]

lol was a reply to someone else who misused full and fill and not to your video... tube decided to put my comment in the wrong spot. :p

[FriedGames]

Somehow, this is so true. People do see YT as blah and move elswhere causing YT ops to think for a change. just my 2c

[VideoGameMaster360]

Its dopey talk huh? You won't leave your being payed by them rotf.

[ForFun808]

lol I was never gonna leave and I didn't say I was gonna leave!

[Shogster90]

True true aron. If your videos suck. THey just suck (not you though aron). Like SMosh. YO man that guy is awesome. and forfun909? he not bad too. and like Justkiddingfilms, Kevjumba, Nigahiga. those guys are da shit. thats what good videos are. and the video "guitar."

retards like classicdomeydumbass don't know shit and just fake suscribe. geez. you must really have no life to do that. skills are skills. play guitar or piano or something and do something. or be a good comedian like smosh!

[ForFun808]

Thanks man. I like those guys too, especially NigaHiga and James the AVGN, those two guys NEVER got featured but they are at the top most subscribed guys on YouTube.

[calidemos777]

people who leave youtube are fucking morons

[pinnoyfan]

You should have added Veoh , veoh is a place where you can upload videos over 1h without spilting it into parts (pt 1 pt 2 pr 3 , ect), espcailly for anime.

[ForFun808]

I added the site in the vid description even though it wasn't mentioned in the vid.

[classicDomeyre79]

You accuse me of fake subscribing, Maybe I was wrong to sub to your videos as I liked them because you unsubscribe me your the asshole I was wrong your videos suck!

Leave youtube... Good idea for you ;)

[ForFun808]

Put your money where your mouth is and prove me wrong then. Make your subscriptions public. Wait. Your not going to? You'd be exposed? Thought so, bitch.

Besides, I've never gotten a single comment from you. All your words are full of lies and manipulation, in order to trick obligated subscribers into subscribing back to your channel.

[ForFun808]

All fake subscribing is create obligated subscribers who will NEVER watch your work, and all you will get is some meaningless number on your channel with no views, comments, or ratings to back it up.

I notice your videos do very poorly on views, it just shows most of your subscribers aren't actually watching you. Thats what you get for tricking/forcing people to into obligating-ly subscribing to you.

[ForFun808]

Gaming the system only gets you so far, it won't change the quality of your vids. If your vids suck, they suck, subscribing to thousands won't change that. Look at the top subscribers, none of them do that bullshit, they just make good videos which you obviously can't do.

As for me, my videos make AT LEAST 2000-3000 views in just two days, proving that by making GOOD videos and being a part of the community, I have REAL popularity, and not FAKE popularity.

Good luck on your meaningless quest

[classicDomeyre79]

1) I keep my subscribers and subscriptions private out of choise and I am fee to do that.

2) I have only just came back to YT from a month or so off, I slosed my old account which was domeyre79 I had major views and around the same number of subscribers as now. Many of them have returned.

3) I partisipate in the community and reguarly talk to and interact with my viewers. (Check my comments I always reply)

4) I dont put a gun to peoples heads and ask them to subscribe its up to them.

[classicDomeyre79]

5) Your popularity is proberly due to the length of being a member on YT this account is still very new and like all good things it takes one of two things to make it big (Exposure or Hype) I have neither, just people who watch my videos, comment and subscribe.

6) I am sorry I subscribed to you and watched your videos. You make videos for fun, so why hate on me and turn in to Mr HATER.

7) Freedom of speech and Human Rights

[Shogster90]

Your getting mad at a guy you don't even know because he accused you of being a fake suscriber? Well the fact that you are so mad is because you know you are a fake suscriber. You got no proof. Your videos have less than 200 views. If you were that popular fans would come back to your fast. Like SMOSH. YAY SMOSH.

And actually ARon is just popular.

OMG MA EGGROLL IS DEEPFRYIN IN YO MOUSE!

Learn how to take a FUCKING LOSS. Thats what Aron said BITCH! Your vids suck my eggroll BITCH!

[soparu]

wait, 808? hawaii?

you don't have a hawaii accent...:D

[ForFun808]

Ho brah! Eh u Da Kine eh? Yeah I don't have the accent because I work in sales and customer service. I can talk with it or using pigeon when I'm talking to the locals though.

[soparu]

yah but do you have to really think about it surpress it?

unfortunately for me, i pick up whatever accent is in the area if i'm there long enough. hawaii and south georgia...i've had them all :>

anyhow, great work-- you're ramble nicely!

have a spam musabi for me :D

[ForFun808]

No its easy for me to change the way I communicate, depending on who I'm communicating with.

[powerfuse]

you're gay

[ChompirasSkate]

Powerfuse:

Your more gay because you say some one is gay sow your more gay for saying that

[ALittleWeeny]

Definitely agree. Great video.

[SeventhSun]

I don't disagree with you, but do you have any links of users saying YouTube is not a nice place and that we should all leave?

I would like to watch their videos also to understand their thinking better.

[ForFun808]

theres a crapload on utubedrama dot com

[tailsdollreturns]

Wow, your like, always right about the problem. Your in a understandable calm mood and you make the point clear. I enjoy looking at your vids. Keep up the good work on every site you are on!

[ForFun808]

thank u, yeah I'm usually mellow in real life too.

[AshleeCloud]

I agree with you. While you're bound to experience comments of hate and disagreement, I think people could actually miss the point - no competition = no reason to change. It's only until other companies take action and FORCE them to leave their snug and comfortable positions that'll we'll actually see some beneficial advancements. Not only for them, but for us as users.

Great video. First one of yours that I've seen, and you've already got a fan out of me.

[RuneScapades]

you said that youtube just picks it partners from a random pile but your a partner (I'm guessing)

[ForFun808]

Yes I recently made partner, but my point is I've never gotten featured and I've made almost 80 quality videos.

[ForFun808]

Oh, and even though I'm parter now, the thoughts I expressed in all my videos still remain the same.

[battleseige]

Well siad man, and you have a good taste in music for the right situations. tanks for the links.

[ForFun808]

np!

[cmax202345]

did youtube decide to make a jesus or something cus these vids are always 100% right the twelve fus are right this is right I swear it he's jesus, he is jesus

[AtomicUs5000]

Very good points.

I will never leave YouTube, too enjoyable for me. My stress release. People don't always agree with what I do and such, but it doesn't get me down, I just keep going.

[SwedishDirector]

Word

[ForFun808]

Yes YouTube is a fun place full of fun people.

[LilCuteDevil07]

hey this makes so much sense and it helps people ur advice is soooo kewl luv ForFun808!!!!!!!!

[xDarkBilly13]

in ur vid ur like, "look at my page it almost looks like im a partner... but im not" u r partner now! lol

[ForFun808]

yes how ironic!

[shangreyes05]

hey.. sorry if i put this here.. it's just i'm getting lazy and stuff's to go in your account to send you a message xD anyways i just wanna say i like all of your video's it's funny plus it makes sense ^_^ keep it up.

imma try that revver and metacafe ^_^ heheh thanks for the information ^_^

[ForFun808]

no problem!

[Morwhituthandar]

Wow, you used my song! That's awesome!

and, great video!

It's a great way to think about any of these huge type of sites.

[ForFun808]

Hey no problem your music is awesome! I also love NewGrounds's policy of being able to use their music, as long as its non-commercial and the artist is credited. It saves everyone time :). Anyway thanks for watching, take care!

[ShitsureiShimashita]

I did a blog for my website that touched on this subject. YouTube should just be seen as one of MANY tools to get viewers.

Thanks for the good information in this video.

[Darkmessiah24]

Great Video.

[GohanDBZ]

Another awesome vid, I agree with this

[shadowflame07]

I upload videos to GameTrailers, and YouTube.

[DukeNukem3DO]

Which is better metacafe or revver

[ForFun808]

metacafe is easy to upload, but revver has much better quality.

[Zombe3]

I thought you are leaving. I was about to unsubscribe you. I rate you 1 star, because of the idea. Other sites suck, youtube is the best.

[ForFun808]

don't worry I'm not going anywhere unless I get suspended or something.

[faustpsycho]

If you get suspended dude I will how you login my acct. Also google video is pretty good quality wise.

[RantingWithB]

I thought that you were leaving YT. I hate it when people are whining about their popularity fading. Boo-fucking-hoo!

Personally, I love the almost 150 subscribers I have. I established a rapport with them instead having 10,000 and losing that connection to the people that subscribed to you.

[ForFun808]

True that, I've always hated people who whined and threatened to leave YT because they don't have enough popularity.

[greybash]

we already know this.......

those people are gay -___-

i totally agree with this vid though.

[finebrother85]

Yo man, thats a great vid. I didn't know about the other sites so now i'm going to check them out. Also are your vids scrpited cuz I got to say you are very articulate.

[ForFun808]

All my vids are unscripted, except for the 12 FU videos due to the way they are structured.

[darkguy849]

another great vid...i agree wit you 100% about everything you said

[MadCamTube]

woahh...

ill keep youtube but ill try out myspace tv and live video.

You are the best youtuber ever. You are so informitive and i watch all your videos. Keep em' comming!

[ForFun808]

thanks man

[Debonair73]

I agree with what you are saying about them picking and choosing. The US partner program is way more competitive. Canada and UK are easier because they are looking for people. As far as people honors getting stripped, that's a known bug in the system with the new profile picture options. I notice though that they clean house right before Xmas. Phatfffat was number #11 subbed musician and then her account was suspended for no reason. She was the only non celeb in the Top 15 not featured by YT.

[ForFun808]

Debonair - Yes sometimes its bugs, but its beenawhile since James the AVGN had his honors stripped. He was number 8th most subscribed and was the ONLY user not to get featured and was not partner in the top 10 most subscribed channels.

[ForFun808]

pizzaboy - EXACTLY! I've seen users who just CLOSED THIER ACCOUNT when they wanted to leave, without some fake dramatic goodbye vid.

[ForFun808]

MatthewMask - LOL I know, especially YouTube's automatic copyright protection system, it gets really out of hand at times and many of us have suffered because of it. Stupid false copyright claims..

[ForFun808]

AMEN SHAQZX

[GordonEdward]

Heh, I'll never featured. :(

[ForFun808]

The chances of a normal user getting featured are slim. You must be the chosen few. People on this site are either gonna get multiple features, or none at all.

[GordonEdward]

Tis the lame way of the Youtube. I figure it's because I'm so damn white.

[bluishwolf]

You forgot Nico Nico Douga.

[ForFun808]

hrm Nico Nico Douga is in Japanese though, so a lot of us can't understand it.
