  • Well said my dude, and u right u need to have ballz to show your face on camera, much respect to you dude.

  • Google/Youtube if you tell me what to do again you can fuck off.

  • soo truee my dude..soo truee

  • YOURE SO BEAUTIFUL!!!

  • Youtubes new scam is trying to force viewers to download their google toolbar. We all need to find a better site to upload our videos to.

  • you're humbleness (is that a word...?) is so cute! I subscribed :)

  • watch this!!! it will set you right!!!!

    

  • man...i'm not a user of youtube for a long time but...i honestly appreciate this video,and when i look at the comments i realise you are speaking the truth...and i kinda feel the same as you...so i don't know...carry on whit the vids man ;)  Peace :)

  • You're awesome, dude. Seriously. I love your perspective.

  • I agree with you...youtube its all bs now

  • Yeah like seriously, what's up with the whole like/dislike thing? I definitely prefer the previous layout.

  • The DMCA? You mean WMG. =(

  • Icon for trolls = trollface and 4chan in general.

  • i had to watch this full video, no skipping, nothing... u got my attention very nice

  • You remind me of the Jeepers Creepers guy.

  • youtube is owned by google...there's your problem.

  • I've seen you on blogtv!!!!! Holy shit

  • youtube REALLY REALLY died when Justin Bieber rubbed his mangina all over the classic platform X( thats part of the reason why i hate him

  • You're very entertaining, and you deserve all your success! Keep it up dude!

  • JTOT you are my favorite YouTuber. You know whats up & you get the facts straight & your right about people being scared. I used to make really funny videos on my personal channel & then the trolls started coming in. I wish youtube could be like 06'-07' because that was the best time to be friends with everyone. But now I hate the big youtubers because they think they are hot shit and they are in it for the money, thats why MrChiCity is my hero on YouTube. Im a Chicagoan too, i hope to meet him.

  • Nice man, learned a lot from this vid. Honestly I was just randomly checking out vid responses to Mr. Chi City's video and didn't expect to find myself watching the whole thing. I can feel you on the nostalgia factor and how bastardized youtube and even the internet in general, has gotten. Props to you for keepin it real, you're a humble, truthful dude.

  • youtube is dying...hell yes. xD

  • Everyone sells out evenutally.

    Except for me.

    Because I'm perfect.

    Anyway, uh... i don't give a fuck if youtube sells out, unless it really fucks up the logical progression, and the flow of data within the minds of the people of youtube.

    Which it has.

    But it's their website. I don't give a fuck, you don't know who I am but you will soon.

    Playing the human game, the real world game, and the youtube game is all alike. People are stupid, and I will manipulate those to get my logic heard. Watch out

  • Yes man i miss thos days to

  • I totally agree with you.

    Btw, i love ur videos:)

  • I don't think YouTube is dying but the community sure is.

  • I Really Watched All Of This . . . .its real though

  • it seems to me that somebody else is messing around behind the scenes

  • right on brother, thats preaching lol truthful and honest expressions

  • I want you to suck my dick.

  • @badboymod why would anybody with intelligence pay you any mind you must live a very lonely life

  • @opiebear lol you just did you fuckwit

  • as SOON as i get a camera, ill make video responses for you i prrrroooomissee!!!! lol <3 you edwin!

  • Hey, hold on, what's with Machinima?

    that's not a company. It's an art form (Machine-Animation - Any form of animation done on computers)....

  • alright ta - edwins generation thats also my name - not the generation

  • omgod u can seak in complete thoughts im shocked

  • he is exaggerating dont worry

  • I feel the loss of community too! I am always wondering WHY are there not NEW interesting people on the front page? And how come i find so many on my own that are under appreciated (as you put it)? It seems that you tube is much more controlling than i ever thought. I make videos, and mainly i want to talk to the community. Mostly my friends watch my videos, and i talk to them. And i appreciate that they enjoy them. And i agree, subscribers just are a perk.

  • : Rock on kid iam glad that people like you can see the difference and arent like those stupid fan boys of ppl like shane dawson, and the Shay tard, man must suck to have a tard last name, feel sorry for his family must be difficult to have a Reality tv wana be who cant animate for shit. Kudos lets kick these fuckers down!

  • You say thoughts funny. "tots". :D lol.

    Ok, I'm sorry, that was lame.

    And damn, you're right. YouTube is really just about entertainment. Because, well, most of the audience (which has gotten really huge) is just looking for some entertainment at the end of a long workday. So they don't really want to make new friends, they just need some brainless, easy-to-understand-humor.

    And well, you are one lucky guy if you understand that you are doing this only for yourself. ^_^ Keep it up. <3

  • OVER 9000 VIEWS! YOU ROCK!

  • if i had a camara! id video reespond to you!! lol your funny man i just started waching you a few weeeks ago and your one of my fave youtubers!!hha you and cyr! keep it up im ganna keep waching!

  • Wtf in the related videos chi citys youtube exposed vid is featured :S? >

  • peter chao pulled a fts

  • This video makes me want to show you some commenting-favoriting-video responsing youtube LOVIN! ;D

  • oh yeah i saw that chi vid late last year. was a very good vid. and yes it is very true. i may not have ever up loaded a vid but i have noticed how you tube has changed over the years. it's more about the money in a way now. but there are still some great youtubers on you posting vids or commenting. if it wasn't for them i may not really get on as much.

    uh hmmm. yulp ur a kool dude dude :P

  • I agree with your sentiment. However there are far too many people 'out there' for them all to 'feel like you feel' - but keep up the fight dude ;-)

  • YouTube really dosent care. If you watch YouTube's video showing the new channels ALL the comments are against it!

  • why would i even try?

  • once im ungrounded im going to try to post to u and the quality miht not be the best cuz its a digital camera not a vid cam

  • wow i watched his entire video its great thank you for showing me that, and for you to follow up and speak so well in a reply to him is also great

  • I completely agree I want YouTube back I want it back for youtubers and viewers! Thanks cool video!!!!

  • Edwin you are a legend my friend sorry I don't comment a lot but I always just wanna see the next video :P

  • Edwin, just reviewing some of your older videos. Wow that was so well stated. Your comments really hit home with me. I will try to be more responsive in the future because I really appreciate your efforts.......Sam

  • YouTube should be about you. Great point. New talent would keep YouTube more interesting. Another great point of view.

    About video responses, how true. Words do speak louder than text and why shouldn't we show our faces? It's about the little people who probably work harder than the huge companies.

    I create videos to help people and look forward to creating a following.  Subscribers matter especially if they keep coming back.

  • Complaining about people not commenting your videos is so lame..i hate when people do that. I just came across your video just now. ive never seen you or any of your videos before, but because you said that im going to subscribe and watch on a regular basis

  • haha wow thanks :)

  • Your awesome!

  • First.

  • Great video, let's bring it back!

  • Comment removed

  • Lol??? over 8 thousand views as opposed to your zero videos with zero views? okay.

    I mean I agree I even said in the video that if you don't already know it might be boring, yet the video got over 8k views, so your second half of the comment just didn't make sense.

  • also rad korn posters

  • good stuff man. keep it real

  • aww youre so sweet. that comments make you feel good ..so sweet ^^

    btw. Justin Long and you look very similar in my opinion :D:D

  • Yay thanks for making me feel good, hottiefix! hehe

    Yeah I get that now and then "THE MAC GUY" "THE GUY FROM ACCEPTED" Lolol

    <3

  • Dude this response is legit man. Good work. SUBBING!

  • Really well thought out video man. I miss old YouTube too, they really have gone for the money now. Sucks to see such a great website nor caring for their community anymore.

  • 5 stars for caring about human interaction. Having the internet means more connectibility, not less. Glad to see people still doing what they love.

  • wow--i hadn't really thought about this stuff.

    keep doing your thing!

    :D

  • this man speaks the truth

  • right on

  • cool

  • @Fr33z13 Then I guess youtube was right, the average viewer does have an amazingly low attention span...

  • Please quote the part of my video in which you gathered that I believed this "crap" you speak of that i "believed" off of mr chicity's video. Then leave a smarter comment.

    :) Thank you.

    edwin

  • dude just get a life fullstop

  • YOUR AN EXAMPLE

  • Crap is free too, want some?

  • You seem like a cool dude, keep it up.

  • anybody still can be picked for featured videos? cmon, the economy sucks so all of us need more money...

  • you are so down to earth!

    youre awesome, and i didnt feel obliged to comment.

    I wanted to.

    happy holidays :)

  • i remember in 2007 they had the awesome feature on the front page called "Videos Being Watched Right Now" ...they dont have that anymore.... and i love edwin and cincodevlogo!

  • The score system is ok i guess. But i honestly stopped rating anything but 5 to nothing.. Sometimes, very rarely, i vote a 1 star.

  • Ur funny. :)

  • U r. lol

  • i comment all the time like evry vid but i agree bout the vid response

  • Nice

  • wasn't youtube sold to someone a while back?

  • @aacce31812 Yes google.

  • thanks

  • you're right about the lack of underground air time but it's a business i mean why do you think BK pushes the whopper because it sells right? companies stick to what they know sells because they wanna be sure that there's steady income coming in. my advice is jump ono another website and do your own thing there without worrying about being hauranged by under handed advertisers

  • Really thoughtful response. YouTube has degraded greatly in quality in the past couple of years, but at least there are still excellent video makers out there. It's just getting harder and harder to find them.

  • my reason for youtube staying alive Edwin <3

    I enjoy all ur videos and im so happy that this is 9mins of you talking Woohoo Superslide!!! ^0^

  • god dammit. you make me want to punch myself. throw a bag over ur head, and try to be black.

  • Wow! Cool story, bro!

  • lol

  • ghey

  • i honestly like you here much better then your crazyness even tho i love you lolzzzzzzzzzzzz and sexy tacos! <3

  • You're actually really great and really, really articulate. I'm really glad to have found someone with real insight. You're awesomeee.

  • Your the guy who helped Nacho Libre in wrestling! ESQUELETO!

  • ure really cute :)

  • I would start making videos but I don't have a camera. I don't have a job. I'm not even 16 yet.

  • hmm, maby ill start a youtube career soon...

    ive been inspired

  • fuck youtube and gay kids who blog

  • It became US exploiting YOU tube.

  • I love Youtube.. Here in my country, Venezuela there are no so many bloggers, but the ones who blog try to stick together... send love 4 u and ur vids... u inspired me right now for my new v-blog... thanks!

    Subscribe & enjoy

  • Dont feel guilty, commenting allows us to express our opinion like you said :) and people only text comment because:

    1) They can't video response cos they don't have the equipment

    2) They cbf videoing themselves at that point

    So encourage us to comment aswell as video response because it allows us to connect with you and share our opinions with yours :) (btw i just subscribed and i hope to see more of you in the future)

  • it was fun hearing your thoughts on youtube and how things are going and how you felt about your subscribers and all. Thanks for posting. I get a bit overwhelmed with the whole youtube etiquette/culture thing. It's nice to hear what people who remember the "old" youtube feel. ^_^

  • This is what I miss about youtube. People like you. I look forward to more of your videos <3

  • OMG i loved this vid! u were so real and honest and i think u are right... Youtube used to be differend and now it's all about money and getting as much views as possible. And it was nice to see that other side of u :)) *clicks favorite* <3

  • Thank you, katri sweetheart! I'm flattered! :) <333

  • I so agree with you and I don't think this guy wants to see our (the viewer) side of it.This video became all about him. That type of video needs to go. He could go ask Rush Limbaugh for a spot on his show.

  • you forgot smosh, fred and nigahiga. even though i hate fred but still those are 3 HUGE youtubers

  • I am kind of disturbed at your comment "how can yYou Tube have the balls"..etc.. when you are actually on YouTube,using YouTube video and time to put your message out. Do you know how critical that sounds? YouTube has the"balls" to do what they want because this IS their web-site,and they could pull the rug from under you anytime they want.

  • And equally I have the balls to put my message out on their site because their site allows me to have my freespeech and it would be unwise of them to "pull the rug" (or censor) me. That is how critical my video is.

    Do you understand now :)?

  • May be I don't understand some of your logic. But maybe it's unwise for YouTube to "pull the rug" from people that have meaningful,entertaining videos. If I have to listen to 5 and 6 minutes of propoganda then you are going to loose my interest as well as others. I truly understand the "freedom" of speach", don't forget the viewers have the same. I watched "chicity's video,then some other guy,I think it was Dan,and then 2 minutes of your ramblin."Freedom of choice" Merry Christmas.

  • Precisely! I am not looking for anyone's attention as mrchicity may have been. On the sidebar I clearly wrote "I really don't even expect my own subscribers to sit through this whole thing". Seeing as how you are not even a subscriber I did not expect you or anyone new to sit through it. I wasn't looking for that. I have a small following that cared to watch it all and quite a few new people that did too so I was pleasantly surprised!

  • this is some real stuff!

    but nowadays with a youtube account i dont even see all the featured vids cuz its all covered up by my other stuff, im not sure about you, but thats how it is for me,

    suscribed... keep it up!

  • I entirely grasp that fact my friend. All I am saying is that youtube is not what it used to be! That's all. And since this is my channel I think it is appropriate to talk about myself all I want... I didn't respond to ALL Of mrchicity's points because I do not agree with them all... the one I most agree with was how the community was dying and I elaborated on it. There was no distractions ...it's a rant it's how rants are supposed to be Thanks for your comment

    -edwin

  • Well said. Totally agree

    *Subscribed*

  • I care lmao

  • oh and why not show my face? i don't have a webcam. it's not all about hiding you know.

  • Also: you don't need a webcam to have a face... most people pictures of themselves on the internet, but I wouldn't consider your comments "trolling" so I don't think you should apply that segment of the video to yourself :)

  • Its about making an effort, but only if YOU want to.

  • ok at 0:52 popped up your little blue annotation or whatever it is, listing the popular youtubers that don't put as much effort into their videos yet get all the advertisement. i disagree with you saying sxephil. although he does get shown on the front page a lot his videos give a quality opinion while being entertaining at the same time. it's shanedawson, thestation, shaycarl, etc. whose videos suck yet get all the attention...

  • Yeah I wasn't saying that those youtubers DIDN'T put effort -I was simply stating those are the ones you see on the front page most of the time... My point was simply that there is more on youtube than just them. I mean mrchicity3 gets featured from time to time and that's probably the only reason you and most people even saw this video, but my videos themselves wouldn't be on front page because I'm not a big name.

    thanks for your comment

  • i guess you might not be... i didnt take the time to watch the whole vid. don't take it personally, but these stuff don't really interest me.

    youtube has never said they were an non-profit organization, yes, they still feature people, but in a way of their best interests...

    guess people should stop worrying about it, everything done is just according to the profits that can be obtained.

    i dont show my face, lol, and i dont care... and really i dont care about getting my message read. No Space

  • It's all good. I understand the video doesn't interest you, but you want your opinion heard lol even though you say you don't care if it's read haha ANYWAY... yeah man I get that their best interest is money, but lately they have been very hypocritical in the way they go about certain things, they have very many glitches, and just aren't the way they used to be. That's all. It isn't going to make me leave though bc I didn't come for THE YOUTUBE FAME or w/e... It was simply a perk

    thx4yourcomment

  • yea dude whats ur deal ?

  • dude good shit u said it for me now I don't have too

  • GO JUMP OF A BRIDGE

  • off a bridge?

  • Money corrupts the mind, Money ruins this world, though sadly Money is what makes THIS world go round. *Sigh* I honestly wish Money was never invented, it wouldn't have made people they way they are now. Money Money Money :(

  • yes... youtube is pretty corrupt now but a lot of it is still ok. but they have lost some respect

  • YOUTUBE REVOLUTION!!!

  • I agree with you man, 5 stars

  • Totally agree with your point about always the same accounts getting featured. So many cool videos get passed over because YouTube is only focusing on the already established accounts.

  • what is the picture on your shirt?

  • It is a volcom t shirt with two birds.

  • ah ok that makes much more sense than what i originally thought

  • You look like Justin Long, the Apple guy.

  • True that. Lots of my friends have had their videos muted.  D: We should be able to freely post videos without fear of having our accounts suspended or deleted. Youtube should start doing what it used to, pay attention to its other users instead of just its partners.

  • yes it used to be youtube.. now it's all about people making money and most of the poeple on the front page.. I dont even watch them they're so fake, and all the "most viewed" or "most popular" are all the same, it looks like all the same producer.

  • It used to be youtube...but the google droids took over.

  • IT WAS "YOU"TUBE. Now it's GOOTUBE.

    I was part of YouTube before Google paid 1 BILLION for them. A company isn't going to keep anything the same that they paid 1 BILLION FOR.

    It's now...ALL ABOUT THE MONEY.

  • Yeah so true dude...Your really cool, i'm happy I clicked on your video! haha! But you are so right that Youtube is not as loving as it used to be! What happened?!

  • keep it going

  • This Youtube exposed has been great. I have been able to find "small people" on youtube who have some of the same styles and talents. Thanks for the video.

  • what a cruel world!

    youtube started being like this when morons like you started using it as a VLOG...

    posting daily whatevers and stupid sh|t like that...

    i agree, youtube used to be so much better ... but for different reasons.. ihate these "vloggers" they suck. =)

  • I'm not the kind of vlogger you think... I make videos with purpose, and edited not the diary stuff... the diaries i find very pointless and disagree with them being the only damn thing promoted by youtube. ...your shaytards, and charlestrippy daily vids -useless! Why take up space on the front page?

  • @JTOTokay

    I couldn't agree with you more.

  • Lmao! you're soooo right! I made a video response to raywillaimjohnson .. And peopel were so rude they were telling me to make better videos and people were really perverted lol so i just deleted it. I swear to god all i said was a question for the day. :| I was like how if you could change one thing in the past what would it be and why lol. idk.. I guess now everyone gets so intimidated to make videos.. one day i shall make you avideo response lol

  • Yeah I think that's a big factor in the dying of the community... Intimidation! You see these huge youtubers on the front page daily and vloggers wanna do similar things but viewers have high expectations!!

    I will look forward to your video response lol

  • Comment removed

  • ya i the 5 stars if you like it and 1 star if you dont is lame, they need a new rating system. Maybe thumbs up and thumbs down?

  • I loved the old youtube. When they started making little changes with channel design and stuff, that's when they went downhill.

  • JTOT!

  • I'm surprised people did not realise it is Their Tube not You Tube. They have all sorts of rules and yet you can find videos all over the place that break those rules and which never get removed even if they are flagged. You are right about what you say.

  • for some ppl constructivly criticise does not exist and if you criticise them you end up being trolled forever

  • We need someone to creat a new vidio site called MYTUBE! you tube are crooks

  • on the Old Good youtube some1 like u would be featured,but the new youtube i have to be literally digging and digging through videos that are suppose to be related, u never know some1 might be searching for a video with cheese and accidentally find u

  • wisdom.

  • You should count how many times you say "I dunno" and "you know"

  • Remember when Youtube boomed?

    Yeah, now they really messed it up.

  • i agree with you , 100%

  • so true

  • If you remember, the guys who started YouTube got to the point where they were going to run out of money because their operating costs for bandwidth and store were substantially more than their revenue. Hosting and serving this much volume of info costs a crap load of money, so Google has the right to cover their costs and make a profit. Like I said to MrChiCity, if you don't like, start your own site and compete. That's the beauty of the internet.
