RUclips started by standing up to conventional media to free up creativity. And it won! Before it was all about freedom. Now because of money, it's bowing down to the very enemy it defeated. Instead of telling advertisers, "if you want to advertise on RUclips, respect it's freedom platform." They turn their heads toward the creators and said "if you want to create then respect our advertisers." Instead of defending the creators, in the name of money, it defended it's advertisers. What a complete reversal. I guess eventually, money wins. Who will stand for freedom?
RUclips should police the comments section more than worry about what creators say. I've never seen such vile language in my 32 years of life as I do in RUclips comments.
Easier said than done. I am moving over to Twitch but still exporting videos to RUclips. I also added a Paypal link so people can still support small channels.
Let me start by saying FUCK RUclips/GOOGLE...we knew when Google bought YT they would FUCK IT UP....kiss my ass on censorship....they could simply put a disclaimer or make it 18 and over video....random BULLSHIT NAZI STYLE CENSORSHIP is NOT OKAY...there is NOTHING TO FUCKING UNDERSTAND.
There is a new platform that pays you for the start of your views with $1.00 a subscriber. They are about to take out RUclips and Facebook. I'll post a link on when the company drops so you can join this company who can pay you.
Hey, if you have just a moment I would appreciate if you could check out my channel. I just started making videos with my friend, tell me what you think :)
Prior to Google it made $0. Eventually it had to change. Either it was going to change itself, or whoever bought it was going to change it. And frankly, in spite of a few big things over 10 years, I still think RUclips is pretty great.
absolutely serious. he said it before that he wears that famous shades so he's able to look at the screen of his camera without us noticing it. this time he only intends to talk and not bother to look around behind him through that camera screen.
I just do videos about my kids and I playing claw machines in the arcade. I don't have anything other than super family friendly content yet video after video gets flagged. I don't have any issue with RUclips policing their platform, I have a problem with the fact that they have an EVERYONE is GUILTY until proven innocent policy. I would like to see every channel with a million subs or more make their channels private for 48 hours in protest. I wonder if that would force change? Tiny RUclipsrs like myself have no voice and no hope as it stands right now.
+NolaDad08 You might find the word "claw" is a problem for the YT algorithm. I just had several cute harmless baby animal videos demonetised that had "claw" or "scratch" in the filename.
+HEATWAVS maybe him because he makes good content, talking about the people who make shitty vidios and claim it as "alot of work" or "hard". in reality most youtubers take 1 hour to make a video that makes them hundreds. to me that aint fair.
+Lars Hoecker first let me say i agree with your original comment as some people make money off low quality videos. the ones who really make money spend like an hour or two editing a video and do it like every other day. so yeah casey fits the description haha
+Micaela Abreu GURL who gives a fuckkkk my friend speaks Hibernian English which is like an Irish dialect of English with Irish stuff added which is great Speak how you want To who you want
Thanks for that Casey. 600 of my videos were just demonized today but the moment I disputed it and a person saw it... they switched everything back on. Tough situation for everybody.
Shteven 1 we need a place where we have the freedom of speech advertisers or RUclips or maybe both need to grow up let us say what we want freedom is fought for over seas so let us use it
It's not a monopoly, the problem is that not many platforms are able to acquire a audience. There are probably thousands of youtube like platforms, they just fail to draw a audience, whether its from web design or something else.
It's only a monopoly because of us. We'd all have to collectively leave and never come back in order for RUclips to hurt. It's that simple. That have a monopoly for sure.
lol @ monopoly. you do realize youtube is operating at a LOSS right? Meaning the company is not profitable. That is the reason their is no other service like youtube, because it's a not a business that is profitable. What other service allows you to just sign up with an account, and start dumping thousands of gigabytes of content for free. On top of that, if people actually watch all of that content you are storing FOR FREE, they will pay YOU money. It boggles my mind how entitled people are these days.
minds.com has a nice look. As someone else -- and many others -- said, it's just an audience problem. If you're a small channel trying to grow, it really won't matter what platform you use, because you'll have to grow an audience anyways.
Casey REALLY knows his shit. I don't think he'll have to worry too much about this new monetization update though. His content is too prime (and clean).
One of my videos got stripped of monetization, I reported the mistake and they made it monetizable again in a couple of days. But it doesn't matter cuz no one watches my videos. LOL
actually even if they make videos back to monetizable in a couple of days, most people watch the videos before that and the youtubers loose a lot of money
Thanks, for key insights, Casey! I just started making videos a week ago then got AdSense working and figured out how to monetize, so I'm trying to learn all I can and your thoughts are a blessing! I never knew how big the RUclips universe really was, and all the opportunity that existed, but this De-monetization may have to play itself out, to see the real long term effects. I know for myself, I decided I was going to begin living in front of the camera for the pure joy of giving my LIFESTORY a platform to encourage others and inspire us all to live life to the fullest. I love the fact that my Life can be a Story that others around the world can be a part of...and I will continue to journey with this V-log life adventure, even if I have no monetary gains resulting...and from what I see in your lifestory from your videos, you love the Vlog life as well!
I have never associated an advertiser with the content of the video, maybe I just don't care... But unfortunately a lot of people care too much about such pointless associations.
RUclips is not doing the unmonetization its advertizers they do not want there ads on shit with rape,suicide,etc in the title they have been doing this for a long time
It's more frustrating for us non favored RUclipsr's Casey. As a small channel in a small niche, RUclips offers me no help at all in any way. I had a competitor advertising on my videos in such ways that I had to basically block all ads related to my subject matter. Now I earn nothing. When I asked RUclips for help in blocking just ONE same industry advertiser from my channel who competes with me they offered no help at all forcing me to pretty much close down most ads related to my video subject matter. My channel simply is not big enough for them to give me any attention. So what happens? We both lose. They lose great advertising options and I lose all my revenue. That does not seem in the best interest of the RUclips community at all. RUclips is dead for the most of us as far as earning money. Today you need subject matter that is popular to the masses and not just to a small group of people. So now I use my videos to sell product and make my money that way. Can't earn anything from all the views I get from RUclips directly, that's for sure. I have to sell actual product using the videos as traffic drivers only. Come get some Catspit~!
Oh man! I subbed from your channel around 2011. Now, I do screen printing as a business. It saddens me that you don't earn from YT. I mean, I have no interest in growing a channel to earn but to think that you're posting tons of screen printing tips and tutorials for free, you deserve to get paid.
Hey there my friend! Thanks for subscribing to my channel and watching my videos. I appreciate your support. Yeah, these days the only way I make money is to sell screen printing equipment and supplies. The Golden Age of RUclips is long gone thanks to Google. Good to hear my videos helped get you started! Thanks for the awesome sentiments :)
LOL..... if you knew anything about how to get attention on RUclips you would know this thread is already working. I'll give you a free tip..... be a part of the RUclips community by commenting on videos and participating in conversations and your channel will get traffic naturally. You're only helping this thread do the job by responding to it ;)
Love the usage of grammar in your informative speech and how you were able to incorporate a call to action, at the end. It just shows the professionalism, quality, and the effort you put into your Vlogs. Keep up the excellent content!
as a software architect/engineer, i gave a talk in italy not long ago where i covered how youtube's algorithms are massively disrespectful of human creators. a google engineer was present and the consensus was agreement with me. i have since studied google more deeply and learned that since the beginning they had little interest in money or in humans - they primarily sought to create a giant AI system. basically, google exploits and just puts up the facade of being of service. truth is paramount.
Vaysm primarily the need is to increase self awareness, balance and health. end addictions, including to technology, money and external approval. self acceptance is key. in this way liberation can be more easily manifested by all. if you are asking which services to use online, there are alternatives to the large corporate behemoths. i run a social network that facilitates healing, balancing and evolving at ureka.org. there are others, minds.com is taking off.
I love Casey and his channel but he is not one to listen to on this issue. He can't be objective. RUclips has their favorites and Casey is one of them. He is more like a RUclips employee at this point than a contractor like other creators.
He is right though, you're not entitled to money simply because you make videos, and youtube do have the right to take away your monetisation if they see fit. So there is objectively nothing wrong with having rules, the problems is like he said a) the rules are vague, and b) they are enforced by an algorithm. If you harass people, and constantly express hateful ideas, it is within a company's right to not want to be associated with that brand.
But RUclips is a community and like everyone in the community he has the right to speak his mind and concerns. Makes more sense too since he's a favorite, which gives the community an opportunity for RUclips to hear their concerns
RUclips has grown alot without these rules. I don't see why they want to tighten things up even more. if advertisers want to pay youtube to display ads on videos then they're going to do that regardless. The VIEWERS that bring everybody money don't even care about being "advertiser friendly" they watch the videos with the ads anyway.
Advertisers don't generally want to be involved in controversy so it makes sense they are trying to put ads only on videos that aren't as controversial. They just need a better way of implementing it.
Of course youtube can do that...it's called a business model. How else can they pay the bills? It's their house - and now you take off your shoes to come in ...or...don't....and don't diss the factory workers..they build the shit you & I consume.
I just found your vlogs at 3am this morning. I'm like, wow, this guy does great editing!... lol. Didn't know you were a director. Great work man. I love the soundtracks. Good stuff.
If that's the case though, there will be enough people who would support a new free video sharing website. Another one would pop up that would be uncensored
A 2 min trailer impacting everyone & must see by all: www.abillionlives.com OR #abillionlives Talk about censorship, overreach, just.. wrong! When people should be thankful, appreciative.. even if just for the cleaner (NON deadly) air their families are no longer being forced exposure to?! Nope.. Of course govt, media, FDA, etc.. ALL losing a f***ton of money in cig sales because of... have been putting out garbage claims/scare-tactics; hoping people have no common sense & will believe their BS. That they can even do this is.. phew.. be afraid be VERY afraid! I am! =/ Not sure what happened to right/wrong, truth, fact/science/proof, freedom of speech, etc.. ALL out the window. Even worse imho= 2 days after North American premier of that movie was shown in Milw, WI.. coincidentally, FDA deeming regs went into effect: 8/8/2016= classifying any/everything related to vaping/e-cigs/liquids.. as a "tobacco product" (even tho... NO tobacco?!? Even stuff nicotine-FREE) Even if studies PROVE it's at least 95% better & healthier than smoking (which should be obvious, but still) & has killed, well.. NO one. Not 1, zip, zilch, nada. Not last yr, year before OR 10 prior to... while cigs/smoking takes the life of over half a million every year in US. Plus, even tho they've done nothing to get rid of what they already know to be killing SO many... poss even you, spouse, KIDS (>165,000 children die every yr in US.. just from 2nd hand 'cig' smoke! =o craaazy right!) Yet now, people are forbidden from saying any of that, if you're at all "in the business". Can't say safer, healthier, better than.. talk about study. Nope, banned, taxed, nothing new can be introduced to market as of 8/8 & unless/until fda approves via lengthy & $$$ process (like >$1mil per item) People need to know about this insane ruling & regs somehow passed!! ALL to keep big tobacco, big pharma.. chemo clinics.... drug makers & addictive tobacco cigarettes... on the marke & profitable! Creating revenue & grabbing $$$ from wherever they CAN!!! Just because... wow... mind.. blowing! That the almighty dollar is being so blatantly & in our faces put ahead of SO many human lives time & time again..... frankly, idk how the hell any of 'em sleep at night anymore!!! Sickening to say the least!!! =/ LIVE LONG(er).... VAPE ON! (I.... CAN & will say it.. saved my life after 25+ yrs of smoking!) #TRUTH #VapingSAVESlives #Abillionlivesfilm #notblowingsmoke #august8thorg #FDAsucks #vapingisNOTtobcaaoORsmoking
Thanks for this video brother. 41K subs here and my videos are turning yellow right after I upload. That causes me to lose the revenue from the initial influx of views. They are causing me to lose real money. I make my living off this channel.
All the big channels should un-monetize their videos if they are so upset and see how RUclips reacts. Don't just whine, take some action.All you big RUclipsrs know each other. Unite and fight! Enough with the crying.
Lol right, that would mean that they will lose money. Seeing how rich they are and still cry over pennies they would never do that. Imagine you make 40 000 a month and then the system changes and you make only 39 000. The drama they all make is ridiculous, greedy fucks. The worst thing is that they all lie to their viewers and almost every single video on this topic says that they will be "hungry creators" or they will have to go flip burgers because they need to eat. Yeah right, surely they all have enough in their bank accounts to live comfortably for like another 50 years without doing anything. Pewdiepie is making millions a year. Hearing them cry is like hearing bankers cry about system changes that will cut 5% of their earnings, big whoop you fuckers.
Corbonzo Two can play this game, having none of your videos demonetized has absolutely no impact on your income. I don't think you get how it works. (Any dummy can exaggerate)
no it wouldnt go from 40000 to 39 more like a 50 to 80% decrease. Go find some stories where small youtubers have had 95% of their videos demonetized. They are not greedy, it is their fucking living... Wouldnt you be mad too? Dont tell me you wouldnt because you wouldnt possibly know.
But they aren't getting paid for content that they have created which isn't fair. Also what about RUclipsrs who aren't as big a Pewdiepie, who only have maybe a few thousand subscribers that is how the make a living and pay bills.
+Yvonne Golden the ADVERTISER won't be aware what platforms their advertisements will be shown on. They most likely go through an agency, who then uses google, or the advertisers will go to google direct.
They do leave it to the advertisers. It's the advertisers who demand such restrictions not just on RUclips but also things like banner ads on websites. When a company is buying ads using the 'ad network' model they don't really know where their ads will end up as they are targeting users rather than sites or channels and as such they want highly restrictive guidelines on what content is allowed to deploy ads from the ad networks as they don't want there brand to be damaged through association when they had no direct control on where their ad would be shown. As this model is designed to be low cost for the advertisers, easy entry for the content creators and low margins for ad network there just isn't really the money in it especially when so many channels use it to do a more hands on job of targeting ads to videos that are relevant to the video and which the advertiser is happy with being associated with.
Oliver Kavanagh i know that.... But im saying why cant the advertiser decide EXACTLY which videos to put their ads on? This whole automated system is what is screwing over creators.
Casey, incredible wisdom, you are at the pinnacle of your game, "the real deal" and your delivery should be taught at a collegiate level. I know you've heard this before, you ought to be the next "Mayor" of New York Bruh!! No joke!!
It wasn't that amazing. I copied and pasted the transcript to a readability test online and according to the algorithm: Casey's speech was at a 7th/8th grade reading level on the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level.
That's not what RUclips is doing say a youtuber such as anomaly he swears I personally find him hilarious and he makes some offensive jokes but a lot of people like him but because of this he can't make money despite how many people like him. He doesn't make money off his vids now. Plillip defrancos videos are getting demonetized all he does is swear a little bit and show honest news. Now don't you think thats a little unfair? Hard working youtubers arnt getting paid for what they make...
I am with you brother. They need to fix these problems! I think creators like you that are big on RUclips should be exempt from being effected by the part in the algorithm that un-monetizes videos. People who are established should have people manually watching their videos to see if they are acceptable and if the decide not that a vote shall be cast by several RUclips staff members to unmonetize it. My genius Idea of the day. LOL
We're all with casey. We're a science channel constantly caught in the crossfire. We mention nothing political, nothing debatable, dangerous, controversial, or offensive. But our last three videos have been demonetized. Literally horse Sh**. Motivation is at all time low. Not our fault - we're following rules, and being penalized for it. The algorithm is bull.
Do you realize the content creator doesn't get paid for views of people with an adblocker... so if you watch your favorite youtuber with an adblocker on, you are screwing them over. And no, youtubers are not the most overpaid people on earth. Casey brings some of the most entertaining content on this website and you get to view it for free every single day. He deserves every penny he makes. Get the stick out of your butt and show some support :)
Yes some people skip, some don't and we get paid for "watched" videos not videos a family member clicks on all day long to get "views" so a video can have 1m views but Google can tell you which are real views
RUclipsrs deserve their pennies if they have that mass of audience, they put in efforts and creativity, they make good videos like shows we watch on TV but often without a crew, & I appreciate creators like Casey who create original contents. He shoots and edits the videos all by himself everyday, he is responsible for viewers around the world, & I gain joy & knowledge from him. That, I can respect that.
i agree, he turns on a camera and records his day.... how the fuck is that hard, he gets payed to live, but the people who risk their lives fighting for his country get payed nothing... it is a joke
No, we do care about school shootings. You think we are like, "Oh another shooting, they didn't matter" This isn't just the US, it's the whole world. We have crazy people who do the craziest things. People make fun of it because they have nothing else to do, plus they are kids and don't care.
Ehhhhh No.... most youtubers use youtube as a living... so... they will have to get a job or do something quick... cause they aint getting no more money for shit ads.
The bullshit thing is they are still running ad's on the videos of which they have flagged for not being appropriate. Yet they are not giving the content creator their share of the ad revenue.
Creative Destruction. It's what makes Capitalism work so well. Like many before it, You Tube is the victim of the arrogance of its managers, who have started to believe that its success is the result of their guidance when nothing could be further from the truth.
I support this RUclips change. It helps filter out all the BS and the riff raff and it benefits those who actually post quality content. Casey is right. There's more crap being posted more than ever before and you shouldn't be able to benefit from garbage.
playing devils advocate here, what about Phil Defranco? a news channel. that isn't a channel full of BS or nonsense, its a channel that is being 100% honest about issues and real world things. the only difference is, its not sugar coated. just wondering your opinion on that
+squishee So you support fascism? You are against one of the most basic human rights which is free speech? And this is a public forum based on the fact that it is open to the public. You can own a house and say it is private but once you allow random strangers to use your house it is no longer private.
+Dj Ruccy Fascism? Jesus Christ. RUclips is not restricting free speech. You can still say what you want in whatever video you upload. RUclips just doesn't have to pay you for it if the advertisers don't want their ads on it. Right to free speech is not the same thing as right to get paid for speech. Not that any free speech law even applies on RUclips anyway
+edawg792 Out of curiosity, do you have any idea how the government works? They give large sums of money to states in the form of "grants", the only cache being that the states MUST follow regulations in order to receive this money. Most states are so dependent on this federal grant money that if they decide to *_not follow_* those regulations, much of the proceedings within that state would go unfunded, leaving its citizens far worse off. The government (RUclips) has found a strategy to control (and censor/regulate) its individual states (RUclipsrs) through the action of simply giving or taking away money based on certain conditions. Even though the government is well within its rights, it's not the solution, and it's the wrong form of control. *It is not a good thing.*
This is so well written and delivered. I was mystified by RUclips's apparent fickleness when it comes to accepting 'advertiser-friendly' content, but now more clearly understand RUclips's as well as content-creator's perspectives... Hopefully RUclips will get the msg that they're not the only game in town!
It's funny how most youtubers say they don't make videos for money an that they do it for fun and the people, but now all of them are going crazy because videos are getting demonterised. I am not saying Casey does this but other youtubers do
Not "all of them" are "going crazy", as you put it. However, even if you make videos as a hobby suddenly losing the money from it can have a real and distinct negative impact. Equipment isn't free. Better computers to make better content isn't free. Time isn't free... or worthless. If you spent hours a day making videos for the world to enjoy, you don't think you should get something back? You're time isn't worth anything? That is like saying you would not be upset if you job cut your hours and pay... just a little. Even a little would upset you. Most RUclipsrs do make videos for fun. That doesn't mean that they should not be compensated for it. Imagine that. Being paid for something you love doing...
But his problem now is upcoming visit to Australia to talk about RUclips. That will be really awkward. Maybe he should have just delayed this vlog, and upload after his Australian visit.
Try watching Infinite Elgintensity's video? Seems to check all those boxes... but isn't as personal or entertaining. He's an attorney that pokes at gym idiots. Good stuff.
Great video. I completely agree, I spend a lot of time to make my videos clear and helpful to the viewer. I mostly cater to the DIY community and honestly want to help people. RUclips has become increasingly filthy lately and over saturated. Google really needs to think of its hard working users / producers first or the ship will sink.
It is because of the crap that is being posted that the rules (that were pre existing) are finally being enforced. Like you I get it. And I am happy about it. There is stuff that doesn't belong there. Unfortunately some of the good guys are caught in the crossfire.
See, it is not RUclips who is doing this... It's the advertisers. GradeAUnderA made an epic video about it which pretty much mirrors my thoughts on the subject.
RUclips might not have certain ad revenue streams at their disposal. At any rate, I feel RUclips has their hands tied at the moment. With the massive scale of this site it is not unthinkable that a violent / potty mouth video has an ad running from Toys R Us. Toys R Us says we don't want that, if we see that happen one more time we pull our ads and go spend that money elsewhere. They are essentially throwing their money away when that occurs. What is RUclips to do? Pull the plug on their revenue stream or pull the ad-plug on certain videos? It will be the latter. I think it will be streamlined in the coming months although the practice is not new from what I have read and heard. It's just made visible.
3:13 The big problem is that it gives RUclips the sole right to determine what content should be considered "negative", which basically means they can shut down whoever they dont like and limit peoples ability to express their opinions/political views. Even if they communicate it, how are youtubers (especially smaller channels) supposed to appeal against restrictions put on their channels if they feel mistreated?
yeah, and soon, there will be no youtubers/viewers because youtube is becoming a super safe video platform that only accept videos/movies like the one on the disney kids/baby channel.
Advertisers don't need to subsidize people's free speech and RUclips doesn't owe anyone a living other than actual RUclips employees. The advertisers keep the lights on, play ball or go home. It's really simple.
No matter what it's suck for youtube starters. RUclips should think a way to filter the videos people posted, not just put them in different baskets by looking at their subscribers.
Seems strange to say that on your computer or mobile phone, over the internet, to another person who could be any where in the world, about a video that was posted by another person who could have been any where in the world, about a monetazation system that aims to be more effective for publishers, to get them to advertise more. That is a long way to the stone age.
The one thing I felt like gradeaundera missed... While it's not youtubes fault that advertisers are picky about what content can be monetized, it's almost certainly youtubes fault that communication is lacking and that the algorithms they have put in place are hurting certain creators that shouldn't be hurt.
lol lol They say doing 10 min videos about eating a pinic is a job and taking vacations lol it is an insult to society but at the same time I guess a form of entertainment...
+Addie b I just don't like how they say RUclips is a "career" like there's no college for RUclips or whatnot. It's just posting a video hoping it goes viral and get paid, it's not a real job. I'm glad they're doing that.
I don't think that you have to go to college to be successful, nor do you have to really achieve a glorified piece of paper to do something with your life. Jenna Marbles has a Masters, plenty of you tubers have GONE to college, and I'm saying this from someone with a Bachelor's Degree as well. You don't have to have a degree to hit success anymore, because once you get into what adults say is the "real world", it doesn't matter. You can have a PhD in a subject, be tens of thousands of dollars in debt, and still be forced to take an unpaid internship. Employers care about experience now, not what you made on your SAT.
Im starting to love it the same man. Ads pulled out recently, but I cant see youtube going anywhere... its the #2 search engine and people love it for boredom, knowledge, etc. Keep creating my friend.
I got bored of watching people talk about the new RUclips guidelines... but I knew casey would do it better than everyone else so I watched anyway :)) Good video Casey :)
this ist true. but what youtube is counting on is that big youtubers like casey that had to build a big community over a long time are too lazy to begin from zero on another platform like fb where they don't have that big of an audience. like other big changes that youtube has introduced in the past, youtubers will eventually come to terms with it and most importantly the audience will forget about it and by doing so the pressure on youtube inc. will decrease which means that youtube inc. will get their will and that means that the youtubers will *have* to come to terms with it. like usual. +Casey Neistat
I think that it's hard for them to tell us specifically what 'advertiser friendly' means because the algorithm has evolved by itself over the years and the people working at RUclips are not fully aware themselves.
You know when Casey takes his glasses off, shit is about to get real
copy cat
copy
Copy THAT!! :-)
copy and paste skill
True!
When Casey takes off his glasses, you know it's about to go down
So true
Time for the beast to be unleashed
Looooooool
You know it
Love your videos Tariq! So funny
Casey you have some of the most silky smooth vocabulary its throughly refreshing to hear
I know and he dropped out of highschool
He could simply just read a lot, books, articles, or watch educational entertainment.
True! Absolutely love hearing him speak like that.
Going to college doesn't mean you're automatically smart and intelligent, it's what you do behind the scenes that expand your knowledge.
and he can cut his videos
RUclips started by standing up to conventional media to free up creativity. And it won! Before it was all about freedom. Now because of money, it's bowing down to the very enemy it defeated. Instead of telling advertisers, "if you want to advertise on RUclips, respect it's freedom platform." They turn their heads toward the creators and said "if you want to create then respect our advertisers." Instead of defending the creators, in the name of money, it defended it's advertisers. What a complete reversal. I guess eventually, money wins. Who will stand for freedom?
RUclips, the internet, the world over... Those who fight for freedom die it seems. *puts on his conforming pants of mediocrity *
Casey taking his glasses off is like a girl tieing back her hair! Its about to go 0-100 real quick!
I make vlogs! 3 off 700! PLEASE PLEASE help me get there! It would mean the world
done
I subbed!

hahhhahahhahahhaha hooly shiiiit
RUclips should police the comments section more than worry about what creators say. I've never seen such vile language in my 32 years of life as I do in RUclips comments.
true true
People should just toughen up and learn not to let trolls and other obnoxious people hurt their feelings.
Prolly the dumbest thing i have ever heard...
+lol funny man I agree.
So true! The ignorance and rude comments are wayyyy too much
we need a new platform, youtube became way too censorship and copyright nazi
Easier said than done. I am moving over to Twitch but still exporting videos to RUclips. I also added a Paypal link so people can still support small channels.
Flixxo Video Sharing! Check them out [I'm not a bot]
Let me start by saying FUCK RUclips/GOOGLE...we knew when Google bought YT they would FUCK IT UP....kiss my ass on censorship....they could simply put a disclaimer or make it 18 and over video....random BULLSHIT NAZI STYLE CENSORSHIP is NOT OKAY...there is NOTHING TO FUCKING UNDERSTAND.
Don't forget Redbubble now they are in into the Copyright nazi club
There is a new platform that pays you for the start of your views with $1.00 a subscriber. They are about to take out RUclips and Facebook. I'll post a link on when the company drops so you can join this company who can pay you.
WHO ELSE IS ALWAYS ON TIME FOR A CASEY VIDEO!?
me
ME!!
Never :(

Me lol
That circular eye light is freaking me out.
That's what I was thinking ...

it's a ring of light around the lens, one of the reasons everything he makes looks so good is the lighting

Hey, if you have just a moment I would appreciate if you could check out my channel. I just started making videos with my friend, tell me what you think :)
+JC Duis nope
+JC Duis nah
true
DROP THE MICCCCC off the glasses, love it!
Watch the whole video staring at his pupils.

Yeah, those white circles look evil.

It is kind of creepy but ik it's a ring light
i thought it looked cool... i guess most people disagree
Casey with no shades? This must be important !
it is

+Triiggger Lmaooo
It's very important
very very important
I think RUclips really changed after Google took it over.
Prior to Google it made $0. Eventually it had to change. Either it was going to change itself, or whoever bought it was going to change it. And frankly, in spite of a few big things over 10 years, I still think RUclips is pretty great.
ya think? : |
Yeah, people couldn't make money off it before google took it over, so its a big change for guys who make a living making youtube videos.
RUclips started in 2005 and Google bought it a year later. No shit!
nah
No shades on.... you know he's serious on this topic ;)
yep 😂😂
shit just got real
shit just got made
I was thinking the same thing! haha
absolutely serious. he said it before that he wears that famous shades so he's able to look at the screen of his camera without us noticing it. this time he only intends to talk and not bother to look around behind him through that camera screen.
I just do videos about my kids and I playing claw machines in the arcade. I don't have anything other than super family friendly content yet video after video gets flagged. I don't have any issue with RUclips policing their platform, I have a problem with the fact that they have an EVERYONE is GUILTY until proven innocent policy. I would like to see every channel with a million subs or more make their channels private for 48 hours in protest. I wonder if that would force change? Tiny RUclipsrs like myself have no voice and no hope as it stands right now.
an arcade.. thats bad..
I heard arcades are where the sketchy people hang out to drink drugs and take liquor.
Don't forget about all the cursing! The mouth on these kids I tell ya... :)
C'mon guys, this NolaDad08 just poured his heart out - Mind you, I haven't seen his content...
...Its great, leave him alone! :o)
+NolaDad08 You might find the word "claw" is a problem for the YT algorithm. I just had several cute harmless baby animal videos demonetised that had "claw" or "scratch" in the filename.
When Casey zooms in and takes off his glasses, you know he is mad. 😂
when you copy and... nvm
Yup, very true
ANDY1 lol I know I copied I just thought it was funny ya know
ANDY1 LOL
YagurlEvelina he is just serious people can be serious ya know
Tough when your million dollar a year income drops by a few dollars.
Let's all feel sorry for them.
More than a few bucks dude. Plus this also affects smaller youtubers as well
+Lord Disick its not a real job stfu
+Lars Hoecker it is. its 2016 not 1950
+HEATWAVS maybe him because he makes good content, talking about the people who make shitty vidios and claim it as "alot of work" or "hard". in reality most youtubers take 1 hour to make a video that makes them hundreds. to me that aint fair.
+Lars Hoecker first let me say i agree with your original comment as some people make money off low quality videos. the ones who really make money spend like an hour or two editing a video and do it like every other day. so yeah casey fits the description haha
Very well said, Casey.
+
as always...
Well said Casey, very annoying to discover some of my vids un-monetized without so much as a notification or explanation as to why they were flagged
SO does that mean all the VEVO music videos will get demonetized? The ones that talk about drugs and sex and illicit things? NOPE
thank youuuuu
thank youuuuu
Probably not.
Yep. Goes to show what the RUclips corporate scum really cares about.
I have a playlist with lyric videos and they have taken them all down
God Casey is so smart...
Just listen to him. The way he speaks. It's great.
and then there's me. living in england and afraid of talking bc im afraid of making mistakes (im portuguese)
+Micaela Abreu you can always talk to me. There's no judging here
+Micaela Abreu GURL who gives a fuckkkk my friend speaks Hibernian English which is like an Irish dialect of English with Irish stuff added which is great
Speak how you want
To who you want
nope
+Micaela Abreu don't be afraid of making mistakes, its how you learn! No one would improve of they did not increase their skills!
Thanks for that Casey. 600 of my videos were just demonized today but the moment I disputed it and a person saw it... they switched everything back on. Tough situation for everybody.
Pouring holy water over your videos is an easy solution to get rid of the demons.
Who is demonizing them? Call the exorcist!

the rules never changed though. It was this pc for years.

Yesssss!!!
Shteven 1 we need a place where we have the freedom of speech advertisers or RUclips or maybe both need to grow up let us say what we want freedom is fought for over seas so let us use it

Finally a comment on it, I was thinking surely in not the not one that see's it

whatever you wanna call it, its dope
Nath three very different things but ok I guess
It's a LUT.
Monopoly is always a bad thing for consumers. We need more RUclips-like video platforms out there. Remember "Don't be evil"? That was a long time ago.
💯💯
It's not a monopoly, the problem is that not many platforms are able to acquire a audience. There are probably thousands of youtube like platforms, they just fail to draw a audience, whether its from web design or something else.
It's only a monopoly because of us. We'd all have to collectively leave and never come back in order for RUclips to hurt. It's that simple. That have a monopoly for sure.
lol @ monopoly.
you do realize youtube is operating at a LOSS right? Meaning the company is not profitable. That is the reason their is no other service like youtube, because it's a not a business that is profitable. What other service allows you to just sign up with an account, and start dumping thousands of gigabytes of content for free. On top of that, if people actually watch all of that content you are storing FOR FREE, they will pay YOU money.
It boggles my mind how entitled people are these days.
minds.com has a nice look. As someone else -- and many others -- said, it's just an audience problem.
If you're a small channel trying to grow, it really won't matter what platform you use, because you'll have to grow an audience anyways.
Casey REALLY knows his shit. I don't think he'll have to worry too much about this new monetization update though. His content is too prime (and clean).
agreed
Why the racism. I respect your opinion. I don't care for it, but I do respect it. I'm just wondering. +Afterdarkness
+Afterdarkness get off of RUclips
They'll block his Chennel from the algarythem
He'll never have to worry since he doesn't monetize his videos.
I'm about to make a dollar on RUclips yaaaaaaaaas I'm rich
A dollar... Wow
and spending $$$$$$$$
Wow really 1 dollar... your so cool
Zac Krupicka
He's making a sarcastic joke you utterly stupid fucktards

One of my videos got stripped of monetization, I reported the mistake and they made it monetizable again in a couple of days. But it doesn't matter cuz no one watches my videos. LOL
same
But a couple days could be a tremendous amount of money to lose out on for big names like him
someone's ungrateful for 4k subs... smh
actually even if they make videos back to monetizable in a couple of days, most people watch the videos before that and the youtubers loose a lot of money
I watch your videos!!! :)
This comment has no point. But it still gets likes
NOPE!
you are right it did... but it shouldnt
This reply will also get likes
guys i need to get in contact with some youtubers how can i do it quick i have already tried email
I will be replied to for no reason
2 videos from Casey??? 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
the dream right?
casey neistat = working beast
woohoo
Well to be fair, the 2nd video is more of a rant. An intelligent rant...but a rant nonetheless!
here 🍆🍆🍆
Thanks, for key insights, Casey! I just started making videos a week ago then got AdSense working and figured out how to monetize, so I'm trying to learn all I can and your thoughts are a blessing! I never knew how big the RUclips universe really was, and all the opportunity that existed, but this De-monetization may have to play itself out, to see the real long term effects. I know for myself, I decided I was going to begin living in front of the camera for the pure joy of giving my LIFESTORY a platform to encourage others and inspire us all to live life to the fullest. I love the fact that my Life can be a Story that others around the world can be a part of...and I will continue to journey with this V-log life adventure, even if I have no monetary gains resulting...and from what I see in your lifestory from your videos, you love the Vlog life as well!

If you watch grade a under a's video about it. It's really good about it and why you shouldn't worry about it. Just watch the video :)
It's not just up to youtube advertisers don't want their advertisements on negative videos, because people will relate those topics to their products
I have never associated an advertiser with the content of the video, maybe I just don't care... But unfortunately a lot of people care too much about such pointless associations.
They've been doing it for months but they're only alerting them now and making it easier to repeal it. Also it's not youtube its the advertisers
RUclips is not doing the unmonetization its advertizers they do not want there ads on shit with rape,suicide,etc in the title they have been doing this for a long time
have been watching your reviews on gopro and drones for the past few days... you now have a fan in Barcelona, Catalonia (Spain) nice work!!!
It's more frustrating for us non favored RUclipsr's Casey. As a small channel in a small niche, RUclips offers me no help at all in any way. I had a competitor advertising on my videos in such ways that I had to basically block all ads related to my subject matter. Now I earn nothing. When I asked RUclips for help in blocking just ONE same industry advertiser from my channel who competes with me they offered no help at all forcing me to pretty much close down most ads related to my video subject matter. My channel simply is not big enough for them to give me any attention. So what happens? We both lose. They lose great advertising options and I lose all my revenue. That does not seem in the best interest of the RUclips community at all. RUclips is dead for the most of us as far as earning money. Today you need subject matter that is popular to the masses and not just to a small group of people. So now I use my videos to sell product and make my money that way. Can't earn anything from all the views I get from RUclips directly, that's for sure. I have to sell actual product using the videos as traffic drivers only. Come get some Catspit~!
Oh man! I subbed from your channel around 2011. Now, I do screen printing as a business. It saddens me that you don't earn from YT. I mean, I have no interest in growing a channel to earn but to think that you're posting tons of screen printing tips and tutorials for free, you deserve to get paid.
Hey there my friend! Thanks for subscribing to my channel and watching my videos. I appreciate your support. Yeah, these days the only way I make money is to sell screen printing equipment and supplies. The Golden Age of RUclips is long gone thanks to Google. Good to hear my videos helped get you started! Thanks for the awesome sentiments :)
Maybe if you spent more time working instead of typing paragraphs on YT... just saying...
very well said bro!
LOL..... if you knew anything about how to get attention on RUclips you would know this thread is already working. I'll give you a free tip..... be a part of the RUclips community by commenting on videos and participating in conversations and your channel will get traffic naturally. You're only helping this thread do the job by responding to it ;)
Love the usage of grammar in your informative speech and how you were able to incorporate a call to action, at the end. It just shows the professionalism, quality, and the effort you put into your Vlogs. Keep up the excellent content!
as a software architect/engineer, i gave a talk in italy not long ago where i covered how youtube's algorithms are massively disrespectful of human creators. a google engineer was present and the consensus was agreement with me. i have since studied google more deeply and learned that since the beginning they had little interest in money or in humans - they primarily sought to create a giant AI system. basically, google exploits and just puts up the facade of being of service. truth is paramount.
Well fuck. What do we do now?
Vaysm primarily the need is to increase self awareness, balance and health. end addictions, including to technology, money and external approval. self acceptance is key. in this way liberation can be more easily manifested by all. if you are asking which services to use online, there are alternatives to the large corporate behemoths. i run a social network that facilitates healing, balancing and evolving at ureka.org. there are others, minds.com is taking off.
yeah right
Friend. Thank You. Also, I feel it is beyond hope. Earth 2030 will be unrecognized.
You will be condemned to using youtube for eternity. Hell awaits
WTF is Wrong with RUclips WHY Ruin a good thing if it aint broke DO NOT Fix it.
Chris Mik's World well apparently RUclips have a algorithm which even they dont know what it is
Well I guess we now know where casey is going today

Well, he just posted a pic out of Heathrow.
i think he had just a short stay in london heathrow
Well I'm guessing he's slowly heading to Australia via London, maybe stopping in Hong Kong or Thailand as well.
Casey Neistat and Philip DeFranco.... I ship the Caslip!~
he just likes his videos he doesn't want to date him wtf
Check the top comment
that has been recently deleted
Stop
Oh stfu you wasteful yob
I love Casey and his channel but he is not one to listen to on this issue. He can't be objective. RUclips has their favorites and Casey is one of them. He is more like a RUclips employee at this point than a contractor like other creators.
Then listen to the others. He did say he would link others talking about this. Some good ones are from Philip Defranco and GradeAUnderA.
He is right though, you're not entitled to money simply because you make videos, and youtube do have the right to take away your monetisation if they see fit. So there is objectively nothing wrong with having rules, the problems is like he said a) the rules are vague, and b) they are enforced by an algorithm.
If you harass people, and constantly express hateful ideas, it is within a company's right to not want to be associated with that brand.
But RUclips is a community and like everyone in the community he has the right to speak his mind and concerns. Makes more sense too since he's a favorite, which gives the community an opportunity for RUclips to hear their concerns
absolutely right, he is biased!!!
how to basic is fcked...
Good job Casey! First CN video I watched all the way through....
RUclips has grown alot without these rules. I don't see why they want to tighten things up even more. if advertisers want to pay youtube to display ads on videos then they're going to do that regardless. The VIEWERS that bring everybody money don't even care about being "advertiser friendly" they watch the videos with the ads anyway.
Freedom is what separates RUclips from regular TV. Why are they slowly turning into TV?!?!
Advertisers don't generally want to be involved in controversy so it makes sense they are trying to put ads only on videos that aren't as controversial. They just need a better way of implementing it.
advertisers dont care, seriosly it's about RUclips not making money and this is how they make money by stealing it.
because SJWs. That's why.
WAKE UP MAN. MOST RUclips VlEWERS USE "ADBLOCK PLUS" TO BLOCK EVERY AD. AND lF YOU DON'T BELlEVE THAT........YOUR SMOKlN' BlRDSEED.
Oh well....I guess people with real skill get paid now.
+Biggy S Woah triggered
It takes a lot of skill, creativity, and charisma to get a 4million+ fanbase just for vlogs.
Take the video down and show YT who is boss! Yeah!
Of course youtube can do that...it's called a business model. How else can they pay the bills? It's their house - and now you take off your shoes to come in ...or...don't....and don't diss the factory workers..they build the shit you & I consume.
minecraft lets players?
RUclips deciding what's right and wrong... Sounds like some kinda bullshit too me!
Agreed... videos dissing Apple are not monetizable
Not really, it is their website. Do what they want. There more then enough people of RUclips for them to get money.
Lol yeah why would they get to determine what is right and wrong on their own website that's some bull shit!!!
Hahah
it's like Isis deciding what the definition of the word terrorist.

I was wondering how long it would take before the internet became censored.
That's so freaking scary to think about. I'm ready to rebel against censorship mannn
If that's the case though, there will be enough people who would support a new free video sharing website. Another one would pop up that would be uncensored
Stefani Addison That's what I'm saying!
What are you talking about? The internet isn't *[REDACTED]*
A 2 min trailer impacting everyone & must see by all: www.abillionlives.com OR #abillionlives Talk about censorship, overreach, just.. wrong! When people should be thankful, appreciative.. even if just for the cleaner (NON deadly) air their families are no longer being forced exposure to?! Nope.. Of course govt, media, FDA, etc.. ALL losing a f***ton of money in cig sales because of... have been putting out garbage claims/scare-tactics; hoping people have no common sense & will believe their BS. That they can even do this is.. phew.. be afraid be VERY afraid! I am! =/ Not sure what happened to right/wrong, truth, fact/science/proof, freedom of speech, etc.. ALL out the window. Even worse imho= 2 days after North American premier of that movie was shown in Milw, WI.. coincidentally, FDA deeming regs went into effect: 8/8/2016= classifying any/everything related to vaping/e-cigs/liquids.. as a "tobacco product" (even tho... NO tobacco?!? Even stuff nicotine-FREE) Even if studies PROVE it's at least 95% better & healthier than smoking (which should be obvious, but still) & has killed, well.. NO one. Not 1, zip, zilch, nada. Not last yr, year before OR 10 prior to... while cigs/smoking takes the life of over half a million every year in US. Plus, even tho they've done nothing to get rid of what they already know to be killing SO many... poss even you, spouse, KIDS (>165,000 children die every yr in US.. just from 2nd hand 'cig' smoke! =o craaazy right!) Yet now, people are forbidden from saying any of that, if you're at all "in the business". Can't say safer, healthier, better than.. talk about study. Nope, banned, taxed, nothing new can be introduced to market as of 8/8 & unless/until fda approves via lengthy & $$$ process (like >$1mil per item) People need to know about this insane ruling & regs somehow passed!! ALL to keep big tobacco, big pharma.. chemo clinics.... drug makers & addictive tobacco cigarettes... on the marke & profitable! Creating revenue & grabbing $$$ from wherever they CAN!!! Just because... wow... mind.. blowing! That the almighty dollar is being so blatantly & in our faces put ahead of SO many human lives time & time again..... frankly, idk how the hell any of 'em sleep at night anymore!!! Sickening to say the least!!! =/ LIVE LONG(er).... VAPE ON! (I....

Thanks for this video brother. 41K subs here and my videos are turning yellow right after I upload. That causes me to lose the revenue from the initial influx of views. They are causing me to lose real money. I make my living off this channel.

One like. thats an odd number
Oops
🙄
+Sir Brandon Carpenter you got wayyyy to strong of an opinion.
All the big channels should un-monetize their videos if they are so upset and see how RUclips reacts. Don't just whine, take some action.All you big RUclipsrs know each other. Unite and fight! Enough with the crying.
Lol right, that would mean that they will lose money. Seeing how rich they are and still cry over pennies they would never do that. Imagine you make 40 000 a month and then the system changes and you make only 39 000. The drama they all make is ridiculous, greedy fucks. The worst thing is that they all lie to their viewers and almost every single video on this topic says that they will be "hungry creators" or they will have to go flip burgers because they need to eat. Yeah right, surely they all have enough in their bank accounts to live comfortably for like another 50 years without doing anything. Pewdiepie is making millions a year. Hearing them cry is like hearing bankers cry about system changes that will cut 5% of their earnings, big whoop you fuckers.
having all your videos demonetized has a much larger impact then a 1000 dollars. i don't think you get how it works
Corbonzo
Two can play this game, having none of your videos demonetized has absolutely no impact on your income. I don't think you get how it works.
(Any dummy can exaggerate)
no it wouldnt go from 40000 to 39 more like a 50 to 80% decrease. Go find some stories where small youtubers have had 95% of their videos demonetized. They are not greedy, it is their fucking living... Wouldnt you be mad too? Dont tell me you wouldnt because you wouldnt possibly know.
But they aren't getting paid for content that they have created which isn't fair. Also what about RUclipsrs who aren't as big a Pewdiepie, who only have maybe a few thousand subscribers that is how the make a living and pay bills.
Why don't they just leave it up to the ADVERTISER?
+Yvonne Golden the ADVERTISER won't be aware what platforms their advertisements will be shown on. They most likely go through an agency, who then uses google, or the advertisers will go to google direct.
They do leave it to the advertisers. It's the advertisers who demand such restrictions not just on RUclips but also things like banner ads on websites. When a company is buying ads using the 'ad network' model they don't really know where their ads will end up as they are targeting users rather than sites or channels and as such they want highly restrictive guidelines on what content is allowed to deploy ads from the ad networks as they don't want there brand to be damaged through association when they had no direct control on where their ad would be shown. As this model is designed to be low cost for the advertisers, easy entry for the content creators and low margins for ad network there just isn't really the money in it especially when so many channels use it to do a more hands on job of targeting ads to videos that are relevant to the video and which the advertiser is happy with being associated with.
+Simon Wakefield Watch GradeAUnderA's video about this subject to see why it is up to the advertiser
Oliver Kavanagh i know that.... But im saying why cant the advertiser decide EXACTLY which videos to put their ads on? This whole automated system is what is screwing over creators.
Hurricane they just see tags, not the video
Casey, incredible wisdom, you are at the pinnacle of your game, "the real deal" and your delivery should be taught at a collegiate level. I know you've heard this before, you ought to be the next "Mayor" of New York Bruh!! No joke!!
Casey sure does have a wide range of vocabulary for dropping out of high school and no college education lol
+DeathAdder83 yep. High school is just more of social experience. Mainly torwds the end of hs
Travelling
another way of saying wide range of vocabulary, say "extensive" vocabulary
It wasn't that amazing. I copied and pasted the transcript to a readability test online and according to the algorithm: Casey's speech was at a 7th/8th grade reading level on the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level.
Tf so you go to college to learn more vocabulary words?
Amen and Hallelujah from a fellow RUclipsr!
Stand together!
Love your daily vlogs Jess! AMEN
Preach sister!
Come back from the dark side RUclips!
Totally agree, from another fellow RUclipsr!
RUclips is brilliant.
Don't pay morons for lackluster content. Thank You RUclips!
That's not what RUclips is doing say a youtuber such as anomaly he swears I personally find him hilarious and he makes some offensive jokes but a lot of people like him but because of this he can't make money despite how many people like him. He doesn't make money off his vids now. Plillip defrancos videos are getting demonetized all he does is swear a little bit and show honest news. Now don't you think thats a little unfair? Hard working youtubers arnt getting paid for what they make...
You are a complete moron.
I am with you brother. They need to fix these problems!
I think creators like you that are big on RUclips should be exempt from being effected by the part in the algorithm that un-monetizes videos. People who are established should have people manually watching their videos to see if they are acceptable and if the decide not that a vote shall be cast by several RUclips staff members to unmonetize it.
My genius Idea of the day. LOL
Evolution has to count with the business of both parties
Great talk Casey
RUclipsrs that show off their cars they bought for 'working' hard on fake prank videos ruined it for everyone.
ON TIME SQUAD!?
Hope you're having a good day!
I am because I'm just about to hit my goal of 2.1k!!!😀
:)
Congrats I subbed
Congrats
hi
Congrats!! I'm at 527... have a little while before I hit 2K, but still super happy for you!! =)
We're all with casey. We're a science channel constantly caught in the crossfire. We mention nothing political, nothing debatable, dangerous, controversial, or offensive. But our last three videos have been demonetized. Literally horse Sh**. Motivation is at all time low. Not our fault - we're following rules, and being penalized for it. The algorithm is bull.
casey's 666th video. coincidence? I think not
I would like this, but you liked your own comment, 1 like in 6 minutes, I ain't buying it.
lol i didnt tho
damn, that's the most I've seen a comment grow in under 15 minutes
+Oldmanengie millions are watching how is it that surprising
hey i made a video yesterday and it felt like casey did the edit would u mind checking it out
who cares, youtubers are the most overpaid people on earth. do those advertisers even realize people have ad block or skip the ad in 5 seconds?
Do you realize the content creator doesn't get paid for views of people with an adblocker... so if you watch your favorite youtuber with an adblocker on, you are screwing them over. And no, youtubers are not the most overpaid people on earth. Casey brings some of the most entertaining content on this website and you get to view it for free every single day. He deserves every penny he makes.
Get the stick out of your butt and show some support :)
Yes some people skip, some don't and we get paid for "watched" videos not videos a family member clicks on all day long to get "views" so a video can have 1m views but Google can tell you which are real views
youtubers are far from overpayed wtf
RUclipsrs deserve their pennies if they have that mass of audience, they put in efforts and creativity, they make good videos like shows we watch on TV but often without a crew, & I appreciate creators like Casey who create original contents. He shoots and edits the videos all by himself everyday, he is responsible for viewers around the world, & I gain joy & knowledge from him.
That, I can respect that.
i agree, he turns on a camera and records his day.... how the fuck is that hard, he gets payed to live, but the people who risk their lives fighting for his country get payed nothing... it is a joke
Two uploads in one day? YES PLEASE
😂👌🏼
+Elliot Lamprecht who replies to their own comment???

This is not my problem yet... because not making any money from RUclips anyways... 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭
Casey broke out the dictionary for this one
Casey actually has a good vocabulary.
I'm confused... he used no vocabulary over a 5th grade level, so why would he need a dictionary?
The fact that you think Casey broke out a dictionary for this basic speech is very ironic.
3:18 censored yourself. And so it begins...
He'e been doing that for a while xD
He ALWAYS censors himself. Sometimes he censors others too, but not all the time.
Shaun Newell he did this Every vlog....so just ok no cencor!!!!
No, we do care about school shootings. You think we are like, "Oh another shooting, they didn't matter" This isn't just the US, it's the whole world. We have crazy people who do the craziest things. People make fun of it because they have nothing else to do, plus they are kids and don't care.
time to get a real job like the rest of us! hahahaha. have fun with this trolls
lmao if u think youtubers will quit because of this ur sooooo wrong. most likely they will just start doing what youtube tells them 2.
Ehhhhh No.... most youtubers use youtube as a living... so... they will have to get a job or do something quick... cause they aint getting no more money for shit ads.
+Thomas Anderson once Facebook comes out with monetizing videos RUclips will be over.
Ross Alex You cant rely on paying bills and crap over ads. its called get a damn job, or start a career. lazy bastards.
You realize most you tubers make more money than you can probably count too?
Probably one of the most concise videos I've seen on RUclips, this is a masterclass in getting your point across, he deserves every penny he gets.
The new RUclips monetization system is fucked.
Not really. Advertisers are the ones giving out the money, they get to choose what they pay for
New? it's not new. They just decided to tell you and everyone freaked out.
+Samantha Ingersoll no
+Samantha Ingersoll and the advertisers pay Google...
The bullshit thing is they are still running ad's on the videos of which they have flagged for not being appropriate. Yet they are not giving the content creator their share of the ad revenue.
Someone will come out with a new platform.
Thomasjsh1 There already are just not as popular.
There are other video sites out there but they don't have Adwords.
Twitch.tv is the one that will do it. RUclips is killing off themselves -- no need to help there.
Thomasjsh1 plz i need subs
Creative Destruction. It's what makes Capitalism work so well. Like many before it, You Tube is the victim of the arrogance of its managers, who have started to believe that its success is the result of their guidance when nothing could be further from the truth.
I support this RUclips change. It helps filter out all the BS and the riff raff and it benefits those who actually post quality content.
Casey is right. There's more crap being posted more than ever before and you shouldn't be able to benefit from garbage.
playing devils advocate here, what about Phil Defranco? a news channel. that isn't a channel full of BS or nonsense, its a channel that is being 100% honest about issues and real world things. the only difference is, its not sugar coated. just wondering your opinion on that

So you support fascism? You are against one of the most basic human rights which is free speech? And this is a public forum based on the fact that it is open to the public. You can own a house and say it is private but once you allow random strangers to use your house it is no longer private.
+Dj Ruccy Fascism? Jesus Christ. RUclips is not restricting free speech. You can still say what you want in whatever video you upload. RUclips just doesn't have to pay you for it if the advertisers don't want their ads on it. Right to free speech is not the same thing as right to get paid for speech. Not that any free speech law even applies on RUclips anyway
+Dj Ruccy RUclips is still allowing them to make videos tho...
+edawg792 Out of curiosity, do you have any idea how the government works? They give large sums of money to states in the form of "grants", the only cache being that the states MUST follow regulations in order to receive this money. Most states are so dependent on this federal grant money that if they decide to *_not follow_* those regulations, much of the proceedings within that state would go unfunded, leaving its citizens far worse off. The government (RUclips) has found a strategy to control (and censor/regulate) its individual states (RUclipsrs) through the action of simply giving or taking away money based on certain conditions. Even though the government is well within its rights, it's not the solution, and it's the wrong form of control. *It is not a good thing.*
This is so well written and delivered. I was mystified by RUclips's apparent fickleness when it comes to accepting 'advertiser-friendly' content, but now more clearly understand RUclips's as well as content-creator's perspectives... Hopefully RUclips will get the msg that they're not the only game in town!
anyone noticed that white ring/halo in his pupil? looks scary af
Thats a ring light.
Borat Sagdiyev lmao
Google "ring light"
So a camera ring light makes you laugh your ass off? Strange.
Rod Anderson what are u talking about?
It's funny how most youtubers say they don't make videos for money an that they do it for fun and the people, but now all of them are going crazy because videos are getting demonterised. I am not saying Casey does this but other youtubers do
Demonetization
+DukesOfHazard4 Dude, youtubers are pissed because the oriented their life around creating content for us and that money is what they live on.
Not "all of them" are "going crazy", as you put it. However, even if you make videos as a hobby suddenly losing the money from it can have a real and distinct negative impact. Equipment isn't free. Better computers to make better content isn't free. Time isn't free... or worthless. If you spent hours a day making videos for the world to enjoy, you don't think you should get something back? You're time isn't worth anything? That is like saying you would not be upset if you job cut your hours and pay... just a little. Even a little would upset you. Most RUclipsrs do make videos for fun. That doesn't mean that they should not be compensated for it. Imagine that. Being paid for something you love doing...
RUclips is Casey's jobs of course he has to do it for money.
money is the consequent for the good work.
By far, no one has tackled this issue in the simplest and shortest, yet clearest and most comprehensible way than Casey.
I was about to say the same thing!
RUclips should respond to this immediately.
But his problem now is upcoming visit to Australia to talk about RUclips. That will be really awkward. Maybe he should have just delayed this vlog, and upload after his Australian visit.
I think Casey said it all fairly and justly. He weighed things out first before expressing his opinion.
Try watching Infinite Elgintensity's video? Seems to check all those boxes... but isn't as personal or entertaining. He's an attorney that pokes at gym idiots. Good stuff.
Great video. I completely agree, I spend a lot of time to make my videos clear and helpful to the viewer. I mostly cater to the DIY community and honestly want to help people. RUclips has become increasingly filthy lately and over saturated. Google really needs to think of its hard working users / producers first or the ship will sink.
Holy fuck, i can see why he always has shades on.
Yeah and also to look at the side screen without you feeling like he isn't looking at you
He kinda looks like if Smeagol turned into a person then started doing meth
You're just not used to it
+It's Me wtf bro chill
wears*
When Casey takes off his sun glasses is like when Ash pulls back his hat
It just got real
It is because of the crap that is being posted that the rules (that were pre existing) are finally being enforced. Like you I get it. And I am happy about it. There is stuff that doesn't belong there. Unfortunately some of the good guys are caught in the crossfire.
Oh SNAP!
They could go all out with that! But then roadkill is hosed... that dude in blue... tjhunt (the swearing will get him I suppose)... NOOOOOOO!
See, it is not RUclips who is doing this... It's the advertisers. GradeAUnderA made an epic video about it which pretty much mirrors my thoughts on the subject.
RUclips might not have certain ad revenue streams at their disposal. At any rate, I feel RUclips has their hands tied at the moment. With the massive scale of this site it is not unthinkable that a violent / potty mouth video has an ad running from Toys R Us.
Toys R Us says we don't want that, if we see that happen one more time we pull our ads and go spend that money elsewhere. They are essentially throwing their money away when that occurs. What is RUclips to do? Pull the plug on their revenue stream or pull the ad-plug on certain videos? It will be the latter.
I think it will be streamlined in the coming months although the practice is not new from what I have read and heard. It's just made visible.
I see... Happy dreams mr. Holmes.
I agree, youtube's doing some clean up but they are hitting it the wrong way. They'll fall soon at this rate.
Your ring light made your eye look weird lmao
lol yeah i thought he had contacts in
I guess you now understand why he usually wears sunglasses haha SHIT GOT REAL in this vid.
That's all I keep looking at
guys, there are people who love it as much as casey ;)
You can get those, just sign here with your blood.

The big problem is that it gives RUclips the sole right to determine what content should be considered "negative", which basically means they can shut down whoever they dont like and limit peoples ability to express their opinions/political views. Even if they communicate it, how are youtubers (especially smaller channels) supposed to appeal against restrictions put on their channels if they feel mistreated?
yeah, and soon, there will be no youtubers/viewers because youtube is becoming a super safe video platform that only accept videos/movies like the one on the disney kids/baby channel.
RUclips isnt limiting anyone's ability to express themselves... RUclips has a right to grant or deny ads to someone.
Advertisers don't need to subsidize people's free speech and RUclips doesn't owe anyone a living other than actual RUclips employees. The advertisers keep the lights on, play ball or go home. It's really simple.
Bingo.
THANK YOU
It's not RUclips it's the advertisers.....
Boycott the advertisers
its the youtubers posting up shit videos to get monetized, devaluing the content on the site
Just watched a Netflix ad in full for you.
I can't stop staring at his iris. Why are there rings around them?
Its called a ring light, its on the camera.
Ivan Thanks.
ring light. It makes him look pretty.
Naksak % Wtf, no. What the fuck. It's just a spotlight
It's because he is looking top down at an angel halo.
Well said Casey especially from your perspective starting at 3:42
That spotlight reflects perfectly off of your pupils, it's kinda trippy
No matter what it's suck for youtube starters. RUclips should think a way to filter the videos people posted, not just put them in different baskets by looking at their subscribers.
People hate change and yet change is what allows sites like this to exist. Create your own website and do what you wish.
Ding ding ding. We have the right answer.
This isn't change, it's fucking devolution.
We are evolving toward the stone age.
Seems strange to say that on your computer or mobile phone, over the internet, to another person who could be any where in the world, about a video that was posted by another person who could have been any where in the world, about a monetazation system that aims to be more effective for publishers, to get them to advertise more.
That is a long way to the stone age.
Kyle Pearse I think is more about censorship than improving monetization system because the US elections but who knows maybe i'm wrong XD.
ANY GRADEAUNDERA FANS HERE?
I just commented that it ain't youtube's fault.
gradeAunderA is god
Yep
The one thing I felt like gradeaundera missed... While it's not youtubes fault that advertisers are picky about what content can be monetized, it's almost certainly youtubes fault that communication is lacking and that the algorithms they have put in place are hurting certain creators that shouldn't be hurt.
yep
Oh no, youtubers are gonna have to get real jobs now.
lol lol They say doing 10 min videos about eating a pinic is a job and taking vacations lol it is an insult to society but at the same time I guess a form of entertainment...
+Addie b it's called entertainment, they kept a few viewers attention while eating in a picnic.
+Addie b I just don't like how they say RUclips is a "career" like there's no college for RUclips or whatnot. It's just posting a video hoping it goes viral and get paid, it's not a real job. I'm glad they're doing that.
Thanks you should get paid by youtube you deserve it more then some of these hacks!
I don't think that you have to go to college to be successful, nor do you have to really achieve a glorified piece of paper to do something with your life. Jenna Marbles has a Masters, plenty of you tubers have GONE to college, and I'm saying this from someone with a Bachelor's Degree as well. You don't have to have a degree to hit success anymore, because once you get into what adults say is the "real world", it doesn't matter. You can have a PhD in a subject, be tens of thousands of dollars in debt, and still be forced to take an unpaid internship. Employers care about experience now, not what you made on your SAT.
Im starting to love it the same man. Ads pulled out recently, but I cant see youtube going anywhere... its the #2 search engine and people love it for boredom, knowledge, etc. Keep creating my friend.
1984.
Nice short intellectual reference, very good!
+Reins read a book kid
It's referring to a book called 1984 by George Orwell to those that don't get it or think it's dumb
For your note, I was being sarcastic. Not obvious enough apparently.
I got bored of watching people talk about the new RUclips guidelines... but I knew casey would do it better than everyone else so I watched anyway :)) Good video Casey :)
this is basically casey threatening youtube to stay away from his money or he will go to another platform. and i agree with him
.
this ist true.
but what youtube is counting on is that big youtubers like casey that had to build a big community over a long time are too lazy to begin from zero on another platform like fb where they don't have that big of an audience.
like other big changes that youtube has introduced in the past, youtubers will eventually come to terms with it and most importantly the audience will forget about it and by doing so the pressure on youtube inc. will decrease which means that youtube inc. will get their will and that means that the youtubers will *have* to come to terms with it. like usual. +Casey Neistat
I think that it's hard for them to tell us specifically what 'advertiser friendly' means because the algorithm has evolved by itself over the years and the people working at RUclips are not fully aware themselves.
