What are we doing wrong?

    The forums have been archived. Please read this thread for more information.

    • Umm.. I think you guys are doing fine...? As long as you get views you're good.

      I have a little bit over 5k views and have been doing youtube vids since october 2011.. So I think you are doing great.

      But for a suggestion? Play DayZ or something, or ACE mod, I dunno.
    • I also looked at their SocialBlade stats yesterday. They had gotten 1.8 million views in one day. Although you can't see this anymore because now that statistic is over a month old.

      I know, It surprised all of us like hell. But none of us had anything to do with it, I get why people are suspicious though
    • Using exploits to circumvent YT's policies is not kosher. I'm sure 90% of the big YTers have done it to jumpstart their channel, yes, but I still think it is flagrant and wholly counter-productive in the long run.

      I say you need three things, in this order: Quality content, luck, and networking skills. Buying views just looks bad dude.

      If I were you I would save face and just own up to it, rather than playing innocent.

      But you already signed a contract with TGN, so you can't. Don't feel bad.. Your other videos have more views than I have total for all of mine. So at least you're better off than me.

      You can mean what you want, but my concious is clear. We've had a steady path after that big 1.8 million views day. Like 10k+ views a day and like 500 subs a day, we are starting up some horror too so we hope that that will get us on the way up again

      Then why did you start a thread asking for help if your channel is getting so rave?

      Whatever, I don't care. Enjoy the YT hall monitors coming down on your channel one day.

      Okay then, we were monitored right after the million views day, nothing happened and we are partnered with TGN now... But okay, I'll say this thread is closed...
    • I will leave you guys to discuss that while I give you this constructive criticism you sought after.

      I tried watching your Far Cry 3 videos but the humor at times felt a little forced, especially at the start. I think deep down you aren't really a born and bred comedian (don't worry neither am I) and so from a LP perspective I think you should just be a little more straight forward. You have a lot of complaints about your talking in the comment section, so I don't know if that is a sign to maybe stop. If the 1.8 mill views for the first video are legit then well a 1.8 mill drop like in the second video is worrying. It might mean your talking style isn't very effective and needs a rethink. I would say to just have fun without having to make a joke out of everything example "Just getting into this car...that has a black door LOL". The joke flew over my head and a lot of the others did too.

      I don't know if someone else could add to that so they see where I am coming from? No offense intended though :)
      There is always time for muffins.

      Come on.... your YouTube channel is possibly 100x as big as most of people here and you are asking for help? :/ . Sorry , but I'm unable to understand that.
      Thank you Cirno, but appearantly some voodoo magic happed that 1.8 mil views day, and if you watch the socialblade statistic of our channel you can see our progress, we have really dropped in views per day

      I think kneesocks put it the best dude, barring all potential fraud.

      But your honest criticism despite all that is commendable. I might as well give your channel some criticism. :D

      DUDE you guys are great! Subd.

      Thanks for the critic, I'm not the one playing Farcry 3 btw :D I have not started with my Let's plays yet, I'm going to be "Horror expert" anyway :O ;(
      I will keep all the critics in mind and inform the others
    • If those views are total legit, then you are damn lucky. Hell, it took me one freaking year to get a thousand views. And those views are coming on 3 videos only.:/ Oh, 1.8million views are a lot. And heck it cannot even go up that way when you're averaging 300-500views a day. It's either one of your directors ain't telling shit among you, or you're hiding something. OR...2-3 big YouTubers liked your vids. That would make sense.
