Thanks Jerma, I recently started making TF2 Gameplays with the same program as you, FRAPS, and everything and I hope that the people that watch my vids like them :)
im actually this close to giving up on my channel. Sure its only been active for 2-3 weeks but im nowadays rolling 1 video a day and they get next to no views. The only views are from my friends :( Plus tf2 isnt that popular on utube compared to cod and the sorts so i get a feeling that only the BIG names like u, niichts and shibby are the only ones able to grasp many suscribers. i duno maybe i started to late (hell im free to play :P) but i get the feeling i should give up now :(
@KantusThiss You know why Jarma, Shibby, and Star have so many subscribers? It's because they are commenters in there videos. Unless your videos are pro l33t montages with epic editing, your not really going to get anywhere. Just imagine this video without Jarma talking. That would be boring as fuck. No1 would really want to watch it. But since he's talking ppl like it.

I don't know why but this is probably my favorite vid of yours. I love it when people go beyond the "status quo". Sure you're a YouTube gamer guy, or my teacher teaches English, but when people go that extra mile and give insigts that apply not only to TF2 or language but life... I don't know. But thanks Jerma. This vid will stick with me. Cheers, mate.
@Linkfanoftheyear Go google/wiki how ambassador headshots work. You know how shots are less accurate if you're spamming, but that first "cooled" shot is accurate (more or less)? Well guys how ambassador works; you need to wait like .95? sec for the crosshairs to get small or you won't headshot. Even at point blank. If you already knew this it's probably lag.
does anyone else not like the ambassador because the headshot detection is all wonky. Does this happen to anyone else, where you will shoot someone in the head twice in a row and they wont move, but you wont get the second headshot, and it wont count for points because of it.
Hey Jerma, i recently hit 100 subscribers. What do i do to celebrate, and what should be my next goal? Hit 100 subscribers in a little over a month. Thanks for any kind of response :)
I saw your video on leptirs channel and i subcribed because i liked you... You should try to do the same let other people put a video on your youtube channel so they could get subs....
Jerma, thanks so much for this video, and all of your videos...But especially this one. Im a new commentator with like 6 subs and this is exactly what i needed to see! I have so many projects I want to get started and now i know how to start them! Thank your for your encouragement and inspiration to all of us.
to keep me motivated to push my self in football i would do this, i am a lineman the bigger guy of the group when we do laps i can do about 8 1 and half mile laps without having to stop for breath. each month i try to add 1 or 2 more laps. Or when in weightroom i try my hardest to add 10 or 15 pounds to my max bench sometimes 20
Hey, one quick question. How do you reduce Fraps file size or do you take forever to upload a video? :D I really enjoy your videos, hope I could get as cool as you. Could you check for my chances on youtube? PM me if I can skype you :)
Hey Jerma, I really REALLY want to thank you for this video, this speech. Recently I've been feeling a little down and doubting my goals but after I watched this I really think I can achieve what I want. For now I set 2 goals to myself. The more and MOST important one is - i want to become a doctor. No, not a pro medic but an actual doctor -that needs a lot of work and now that I feel more motivated I think I can actually achieve this! In the meantime I'll continue making UTub videos. THANK YOU!
As per Ze Frank: If you don't wanna run out of ideas the best thing to do is not to execute them. You can tell yourself that you don't have the time or resources to do 'em right. Then they stay around in your head like brain crack. No matter how bad things get, at least you have those good ideas that you'll get to later. the longer you wait, the more they convince themselves of how perfectly that idea should be executed. But the bummer is most ideas kinda suck when you do 'em.
@f00ky3w2oob And no matter how much you plan you still have to do something for the first time. And you're almost guaranteed the first time you do something it'll blow. But somebody who does something bad three times still has three times the experience of that other person who's still dreaming of all the applause. When I get an idea, even a bad one, I try to get it out into the world as fast as possible,
These types of commentaries mean a lot to me. I always find myself going "Well now what?" when it comes to persuing my chosen career. Success is a tricky thing. There are no set rules for it but you can never start a journey until you take a step right? Thanks again Jerma, not only is your channel incredibly entertaining, its also very inspirational.
Thanks for this video. I just started my channel at the start of this month. I am struggling and i already knew I would but I love making videos. So I will take your advice on the goals thing and hopefully it goes good.
I have been doing youtube for damn near 1 yr and a half and basically if u get a couple hundred subs right off the bat, like Jerma said ur lucky. I dont wanna sound like a b!tch but if ur new and get a few hundred subs a month thays awesome!!
You made amazing points. When I was young I wanted to be a musician. Now I am learning you have to make small goals. You can't go from zero to a hundred immediately.
You should be a Motivational Speaker, you made me look at myself and set a goal, by next month I want to have a 95 in my American Sign language Class, currently at a 91.
Jerma bare with me for a sec here :) why dont you help your subscribers get noticed with like Shout out Sundays (or whatever day you want to make it)? But i think that would be a really nice thing to do and you will be helping the people that helped you get to where you are now :) just a random idea of mine lol
Okay, so here's the number one "secret" to being successful at youtube if you want to do anything involving commentaries; you need to sound good. If your voice sounds like you haven't gone through puberty, odds are you won't get popular, sorry. On top of that, you're gonna need a relatively pleasant voice that people actually want to listen to. INVEST IN QUALITY AUDIO EQUIPMENT.
I know this is harsh, but I see so many 12 year olds wondering why they can't get more subs, and it's the ugly truth.
@Jerma, your video content is really great and Im grateful I actually found your channel. I happened to stumble onto one of your vids and I ended up sleeping quite late that night because your videos are really great to watch and to top it off, your personality is very interesting and your quite humble as well
Just want to say thanks alot for the great channel and vids and look forward to more of your videos (btw, could you please make longer videos in the future )
I don't think my problem has to do with motivation, my problem is caring about it in the first place. I'm talking about my schoolwork. I know it is important for my future, but I really hate school. I am always overloaded with schoolwork and I never get around to it until 2-3 days before it is due because I cannot focus on something I hate so much.
In addition to Jerma's advice, the best advice I have ever been given for achieving your goal, is to actually start.
Too often a goal won't be accomplished purely because planning for the end goal more or less becomes the goal itself. You may have the best idea ever - but if you never really make an effort to start, you'll just be stuck with an idea that stagnates more and more over time.
jerma u are one of my idols u made me download tf2 and a A- in math after this video ur a amazing and expect amazing out of u and youtube and even in society
I was one of your first 100 subscribers, back when you had to play in dx 8 because of the poor optimization. Sorry I dont comment all the time but I watch every video :D
Jerms, your speaking voice and articulation are stunning. You could very well be the next Morgan Freeman for all those Discovery Documentaries. This was a great video. I am impressed by your young wisdom. Love to my favorite (tied) subscriber! <3
I did the same thing for juggling. First month, did 2 balls, second month, 3 balls. Now, 8 months later I can juggle two balls with one hand, three with both, and my record is 590 catches. :D
It's kind funny in a sad way, my municipal spends $370 a month to send me to listen to people say basically this. Though they don't tear it up at well any game really so its much less interesting.
I can really relate to this. On Xmas a few years ago, I got a unicycle. Of course I sucked at it the first time, but when I finally got to stay on, the first time I went for 6m without holding onto anything, I decided to work on it more than ever. Then I got into the streets, I would say to myself that I would reach the red car. Once I got there, still going on, I decided to get to the other one, then the next one etc... Now, I can ride all day long if I wanted to.
dam they are terrible.. y cant i verse retards like this -.-. also jsut a question at anyone, once u record with fraps, can u automatically upload it to utube or do u have to do some rendering shit? thnx <3
You need to render it out first because the video will have a huge file size (especially gameplays) which take up tons of space on your hard drive and I don't think you'd want to upload a 10gb+ file to YouTube.
@Puhpit ah yeah each of my vids are like 1 minute and take up 3 gib :/ thnx man. another question though, what do i use to render it? AE or sony vegas or some other application.. thnx
Well personally I'd suggest Sony Vegas because it's also a great video editor too with lots of rendering options and such. Also, I think Windows Movie Makers can do simple renders and I'm not too sure about AE though because I haven't gotten around to using that program unfortunately. :/ And no problem. :D
@FasteningFrame7 Dude... Ur pointing ur camera at ur screen and u have like 7 vids in a month? Why do u expect a following with shitty quality and inconsistency like that?
I've been working on writing a concept rock album. I've been getting really discouraged when a song falls apart or a band member chooses drinking over what our goal is. I recently decided to attack this endeavor by myself (I prefer a clean and sober working environment). This inspired me to keep going, because as of yesterday I was considering quitting. I've also been falling behind on making youtube videos consistently.
Thanks so much Jerma, this vid and your tips help me keep going :)
Thanks for the video man. Gave me some ideas of goals that i could use, as before i was running out of steam. Thanks again for the video, looking forward to some more :D
You know, that's something I've been struggling with, as I've enetered into education for the first time in four years, took it slow and realistic, one A level. My goal was to be a writer, use psychology to make good characters. But then I started photography and philsophy and I enjoy them both, but now I don't know where I'm going because three options exist infront of me and do I combine them all or specialise? I'm not entirely sure.
Just on the topic of youtubing. I feel that if I actually started trying to get subscribers (so far I've just uploaded stuff now and then, mostly for my own sake) just setting a subscriber goal would feel too arbitrary. There's no change and I'd probably get bored. It wouldn't really feel like the quality mattered more than the quantity if you just tell yourself "this month I want 100 subs, next I want 100 more!". Any thoughts on this?
@Shilag It's not so much the fact that you want them, but the fact that you are setting a goal that is obtainable. Once you give yourself a reason to push, you will do way more than you thought.
@Jerma985 This would be great for me if I could just A: get my head out of the gutter, and B: Be more self-confident, or more outgoing and ambitious... :(
Ehrm... Listen Jerma. I am 11 Years old and i am doing Minecraft Commentaries... And i need a good voice recording program and Video Recording Program. Do you know any?
@anangrysquirrel thats what i have been thinking. When i grow a bit older i am going to start, and when i get a pc that have got more than 200 gb memory and 4 gb ram ._. i am gonna stay with maybe some Super Mario World or something...
@TwillightDoom My advice is look through youtube and check out videos that talk about info, 1. get FRAPS its a good program to keep your FPS to a higher state 2. Get a editng software program theres a good couple around and dont listen to people like anangrysquirrel, they are just stupid
@InfinityMW2 Thank you so much. I have got Fraps, and Camtasia so thx dude :D i am going to do a walkthrough of SMW Now XD Without commentary, and i will start being an Nintendo LP/Guide dude :D
When he said *Oh Jerma I have been doing this for a few months and have a few hundred subscriber's ( I have been doing this for like a year and have on 24 ) I was like F that I just wish I knew what to do to get people to so my videos and like them and stuff. Jerma is would make my life if you responded :(
@xXFlipHDXx Its tough to say what is going to work, and what won't. Using various gaming forums, networking with other channels, and making the best content you can should help in the long run.
@xXFlipHDXx I was going to go to your channel and sub but i cant find your subscribe button. I dont know if im just Hallucinating or what, but mayby if you change that more people will sub. I like your RFG videos BTW and will sub when your fix that.
hey man I've been on this youtube acount for a long time now, I have over a 100 videos but very few subs should I keep this channel for what I'm like using it for now and open another new name and all of that and try to put stuff on there of like my gmod videos where on this acount I keep doing real life videos?
What Jerma says is absolutely right, take it from me. I went for several months not doing anything, really just complaining that I didn't have enough subs to do anything, and using that as my excuse for not uploading. But once I actually sat down and made some videos with a realistic goal, (which was December by the way) I got my 100th sub and met my goal for the month. You really should listen to Jerma; you won't regret it. :D
This links very well with college to-do's. I tend to throw all of my tasks at one big pile and say: "Alright, I'm going to make this report in 30 minutes, after that my paper, that will take .... 15 minutes, at most, I can finish that 10 chapter paper easily." I set unrealistic goals. Thanks for making me realize that.
Gonna be honest with you bro I read the title and thought this was going to be kinda lame but I clicked it anyways and what you said really applied to me :D. Good talk man and encouraging words especially as I feel like I am in that negative state of mind that you described trying to scramble to figure out what to do. I appreciate it.
A thing for those who are going to collage, don't go for something the other tells you to do or what will make more profit don't even go for things you want to do, go for the thing you love to do.
jerma my pc has quite alot of open space it has a good graphic card and all that stuff do you know y it takes over 24 hours to uplaud plz reply if you know how to fix this
@halominecraftawsome Its about your Internet connection, not your computer itself. It's likely your internet connection has a low upload cap speed, which means that short of changing internet plans, there is no way to fix it.
I love Dr Jerma. It's always nice when you tell a story. I have other way to do with the stuff. I just do what i have to (or in some situations) What I want. Don't expect anything to happen. And almost everything works for me.
my youtube channel is a music channel and since youtube started crying about copyright i cant upload anything anymore i started my channel when i was 16 so 4 years and what i dont get is i had a video uloaded for a year or longer and it got removed and i got a copyright strike up my ass and now i see the same song on youtube evrywhere >_> i just dont get how that works
@joshxtreme99 If you have any friends, or people you have met that do videos, and you guys have similar sub/view counts, try and work together. Two heads really are better than one sometimes. :)
would you guys wanna check out my channel plz :D

I did the same thing for juggling. First month, did 2 balls, second month, 3 balls. Now, 8 months later I can juggle two balls with one hand, three with both, and my record is 590 catches. :D

It's kind funny in a sad way, my municipal spends $370 a month to send me to listen to people say basically this. Though they don't tear it up at well any game really so its much less interesting.

I can really relate to this. On Xmas a few years ago, I got a unicycle. Of course I sucked at it the first time, but when I finally got to stay on, the first time I went for 6m without holding onto anything, I decided to work on it more than ever. Then I got into the streets, I would say to myself that I would reach the red car. Once I got there, still going on, I decided to get to the other one, then the next one etc... Now, I can ride all day long if I wanted to.

Why do you use the konniver kunai the most when the default is way better, and spy cicle

@JSasRays The Kunai is extremely effective against pyros if you can get those trickstabs on them, much better than spycicle.

dam they are terrible.. y cant i verse retards like this -.-. also jsut a question at anyone, once u record with fraps, can u automatically upload it to utube or do u have to do some rendering shit? thnx <3
KantusThiss 1 month ago
@KantusThiss
You need to render it out first because the video will have a huge file size (especially gameplays) which take up tons of space on your hard drive and I don't think you'd want to upload a 10gb+ file to YouTube.
Puhpit 1 month ago
@Puhpit ah yeah each of my vids are like 1 minute and take up 3 gib :/ thnx man. another question though, what do i use to render it? AE or sony vegas or some other application.. thnx
KantusThiss 1 month ago
@KantusThiss
Well personally I'd suggest Sony Vegas because it's also a great video editor too with lots of rendering options and such. Also, I think Windows Movie Makers can do simple renders and I'm not too sure about AE though because I haven't gotten around to using that program unfortunately. :/ And no problem. :D

I've been working on writing a concept rock album. I've been getting really discouraged when a song falls apart or a band member chooses drinking over what our goal is. I recently decided to attack this endeavor by myself (I prefer a clean and sober working environment). This inspired me to keep going, because as of yesterday I was considering quitting. I've also been falling behind on making youtube videos consistently.
Thanks so much Jerma, this vid and your tips help me keep going :)

You know, that's something I've been struggling with, as I've enetered into education for the first time in four years, took it slow and realistic, one A level. My goal was to be a writer, use psychology to make good characters. But then I started photography and philsophy and I enjoy them both, but now I don't know where I'm going because three options exist infront of me and do I combine them all or specialise? I'm not entirely sure.
LordPayne 1 month ago
Just on the topic of youtubing. I feel that if I actually started trying to get subscribers (so far I've just uploaded stuff now and then, mostly for my own sake) just setting a subscriber goal would feel too arbitrary. There's no change and I'd probably get bored. It wouldn't really feel like the quality mattered more than the quantity if you just tell yourself "this month I want 100 subs, next I want 100 more!". Any thoughts on this?
Shilag 1 month ago
@Shilag It's not so much the fact that you want them, but the fact that you are setting a goal that is obtainable. Once you give yourself a reason to push, you will do way more than you thought.

What Jerma says is absolutely right, take it from me. I went for several months not doing anything, really just complaining that I didn't have enough subs to do anything, and using that as my excuse for not uploading. But once I actually sat down and made some videos with a realistic goal, (which was December by the way) I got my 100th sub and met my goal for the month. You really should listen to Jerma; you won't regret it. :D

I set unrealistic goals. Thanks for making me realize that.
