Cubers and Youtube Partnerships

You make it seem as though you are more important than other members
Your posts are very similar to what my ignorant posts were like

A lot of people have misunderstood Dene's post it seems.

I think that becoming a you tube partner for some cubers has become more important than just making cubing videos.
For some people becoming a partner has helped them, such as
nakaji, thrawst, rob and tonyfishers channel

And it helped them how..?

No. Your posts put people down by saying/implying "nobody cares about your solve videos because you suck." Dene's post was more along the lines of "stop worrying about it so much, this issue is not a big deal." See the difference?

OK OK sorry

maybe I should just stop posting all together

What do I care? I don't really, sorry, I was just noticing a paradigm shift in very new cubers and how YouTube is influencing some (miniscule in numbers mostly), and I just thought (even though it seems to be known by most and/or all people) that I would post because I have never really posted in a forum-like community, and to inform some of what was going on with how YouTube is now being used. That's all really... I'm terribly sorry about the post, I will keep my extemporaneous thoughts/ideas out of posts in this forum. And the whole uncalled ignorance thing was basically a rewording of what mcciff2112 had said as it pertains to Dene, in the fact that he mostly dismissed my post because of it's seemingly irrelevant nature. Also, no, it doesn't harm me in any way, shape, form, or fashion, I have no net gain or loss from it, and there's no real problem, so yes, I suppose I did have some reason for posting, just not important enough. It's just how I felt about a certain issue. That's all. Sorry again and thank you.

Dene is rude, Dene has been rude, but really Dene isn't rude.
On the surface it's not the happiest of posts, but the meaning isn't harsh.

Yeah, Dene gets on people bad sides, he's like that. That's Dene. Like him or not. But try to understand what he thought was clear when he said it.

lol?

And the whole uncalled ignorance thing ...

As far as I know, "ignorance" means "lack of knowledge" and is a condition, not something you do. That's why I don't get how it can be uncalled for.

Dene, in the fact that he mostly dismissed my post because of it's seemingly irrelevant nature.

Dismiss sounds so negative. I think he was just trying to help you relax and not waste energy getting upset over stuff like that (correct me if I'm wrong, Dene).

 

[MW1990]

You have a point Mr. Pochmann, dismiss is somewhat harsh, I see now what he was originally was trying to get at I suppose (Dene that is) Thank you.

 

[Stefan]

LOL. Did I just manage to make Dene look like a saint? Booyah! Minus 1000 badass points!

Ha Ha Ha!

So how many points do you have now?

P.S. Stefan, do you still have extra harry potter magics and simpsons magics? If you do, can I buy some off of you at the US nationals?

 

[Dene]

Firstly: Yes Stefan, you did interpret me correctly
Secondly: I don't get the saint thing. Care to explain to the simple minded?

 

[mcciff2112]

It sounds like you care way too much about something that doesn't matter. Who cares about the noobs and their YouTube partnerships?

He does, and he made a thread about it, giving us his thoughts and ideas towards an issue that he does not think is right. Isn't this what we were talking about in the Start suspending people who blatantly disregard forum rules thread? Shouldn't we stop ridiculing people for sharing what they think? 04mucklowd was called out more than once when saying things like "Who cares?" when posting. This is, not exactly, but, a very similar case to what we have been discussing in that other thread. It's time everyone, even the big guys, start respecting other people's opinions and not posting ignorant comments that discourage others from sharing their thoughts.

You just mega failed. I don't play around disguising insults. Try reading what I said again.

I'm sorry if I misinterpreted what you said, but from the way you worded it, it sounded pretty offensive. That being said, a better explanation of your intentions would be greatly appreciated. I'm also sorry I went out like that. With everything that's been going on with Michael's thread, I really haven't been too happy with the forum and, for some reason, took it out on some undeserving people (even though I originally thought you deserved it).

I have no net gain or loss from it, and there's no real problem, so yes, I suppose I did have some reason for posting, just not important enough. It's just how I felt about a certain issue. That's all.

That's the beauty of this forum. We shouldn't need to worry about the importance of your reasoning. This is a forum about speedsolving. Meaning, anything puzzle-related should be (and maybe wasn't in your case) welcomed. That was my original reason for not appreciating Dene's post. There's no judge to how important something is, if you feel it is important enough to post, then just do it.

 

[Hadley4000]

It's not that the partnership is really important. The problem is that several of these people are giving bad advice and wrong information. And partnership draws a bigger crowed, which then leads to wrong information being spread.

Who is Stephan?

Oh, whoops. I meant Stefan.

Just what the thread starter's change of interpretation of your post looked to me, from "uncalled for" to apparently accepting "trying to help".

 

[Sa967St]

I never understood the deal with partnership, and why people want it so bad... is it a status thing? I got mine a very long time ago because i was curious how much money it can make. And by the way, its not much... I think I make roughly 10-40 cents per day tops. And thats combined revenue from my channel AND my website, which has 100-200 hits a day. So its not the money... what is it?

For me it'd be about getting a cooler channel (banner, more boxes, autoplaying featured video etc.).
I got an invitation to be a partner last year, but I don't want to accept it because I've uploaded stuff that doesn't belong to me, and I don't want to delete them because they have a lot of views

Sorry, I meant I was looking for an interpretation of the whole post, as in, including the "Booyah! Minus 1000 badass points!" >.<

Oh, that. Maybe badass was the wrong word, not sure. Meanie maybe? Anyway, you know we're both not exactly saints but rather among the loudest most sarcastic guys in cubing. If we or our "fans" (those with an urge to post "pwned") cared about who's the #1, we might have a rating system and you'd lose points for being shown to have been nice to someone (in case it wasn't clear, those minus 1000 were for you, not me).

Gah, I really don't like explaining my jokes.

 

[Dene]

Well then make the jokes more obvious .
I completely understand now. But I believe if there were to be a "battle" between us surely you would win. Too many morons around here think I'm a girl, and they aren't going to say a girl is a meany.
