My Dear Kind Viewers == THIS video is NOT DE-monetized. So far this one has not been flagged. The video I was referring to I held back. I am waiting for them to approve it before I release it. (hopefully tomorrow). Thank you all so much for rallying on this! You Rock! - C
Carolyn's RV Life Carolyn, yes, they are doing this to many RUclipsrs, no matter how many subs they have. It's like they just like jacking with people. What RUclips doesn't "get" is that nobody cares about there stupid ads.
Carolyn's RV Life Hi Carolyn! I couldn't be a RUclips content creator. The only advertiser I could get would be Depends undergarments because ever video I would make I would tell everyone they were going to shit their britches when they heard what my thoughts were! LoL! Anyways glad to see your doing well. Take care my friend and be safe out there.
Keep doing what you're doing, don't let them get you down. The way you are living is fantastic, wish i was in a position to do the same. Happy trails an safe travels.
So sick of this demonitization crap...it's happening to big RUclipsrs too...I'm writing this comment as the second commercial runs on your video, so they're showing (just FYI)
I use RUclips Red, so I don't see ads. Hopefully they're still up. If it's any help, every time I respond to a comment I let the video run again. =D lol
tiny youtubers as well. Its so very sad because I depend on good content for ALL my entertainment. Conspiracy theory: maybe cable companies want us to come back. I quit cable tv because you tube is just more interesting and I know dozens of people who have done the same.
As a former IT specialist, I understand how many hours it takes to create these videos. Thank you for your videos. I wish I could give them 2 thumbs up.
I never realized that if you skip watching the ad that it de-monetizes the channel. I'll be watching the ads from now on because I love Carolyn's channel. More than watching Da Bears...well, maybe not. But I do love your channel!!!
There was an LG ad prior to your content. De-monetization of creators work, unacceptable. RUclips would be nothing without creators. I support you Carolyn as a subscriber & I look forward to your content. Thank you.
You'll never have to worry about me crowding you! I too require lots of space, I freak out when someone tries to camp close to me. I don't blame you for being pissed at YT. Hope to see you at RTR 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
I've heard about the Demonization on other channels as well. That is so much crap. So sorry this is happening to you. That is scary that is happening especially with you retiring from your marketing company. Hope all goes well & looking fwd to your next videos.
First of all I am so excited you will release the videos periodically of Ky, Tn, Va, NC! Also I'm so glad you'll be at the RTR, I will this year too, (but only for 5 days or so), I'm with you on crowds. I prefer being alone when I'm out in my van. I remember Bob saying that you might teach a class. I stink at finding good boondocking spots, and I hear you have a gift for finding places. yeeehaaaa.
Give it time, you will win! Because they need more information from RV life from work you have done in your past. Love you,and Mr, Capone. Thanks for having me,or all of us.😎🇱🇷🎙
My husband and my daughter are introverts. My daughter even more than my husband. I am the extreme opposite. Your explanation in a previous video about being an introvert really helped me to understand them. I wish I had heard this 29 years ago! Your words were so wise, and I want to thank you so much for them. I love your videos, and you and a couple others (bob too!) inspired my husband and I to get a travel travel and get out and see the world. So sorry for the trouble with Facebook. Hopefully there will be a quick resolution, with all the you tubers having the same problem, maybe they will wise up and fix it. Safe travels!
I always see the ads often more than one ad... and watch the ads for my favorite channels. I also started watching my favorites a few days after I get the notice of a new video. I never get bored with the desert 🌵
I'm so sorry you are going thru this crap! Any excuse will do in this cut-throat world. Just remember that in the end, what is true and right, will come through. Hang in there, and know that you are loved.💝
Carolyn omg you have just explained exactly how I am. It’s definitely the people pleaser aspect, like having to put on a face, be presentable, entertaining when there’s a crowd, etc it’s not for me relaxing either. Own company is definitely far less stressful. Having said that like you, I’m bubbly and very talkative when in company, but also get anxious at thought of crowds although it’s always ok in the end. Goes to show there’s always someone who thinks/ feels the same, and it is perfectly ok for us all to be different we are not sheep, individuality is what makes us unique. There was an ad in this one btw 👍 love you and your videos think your awesome. 🌈🌻🌞xx
Love you Carolyn and Capone, wish I could support you but at this time can not but love your videos, watch them all, wishing you nothing but the very best and really hope your income goes way up, you are the best, beautiful lady.
Yes, I'm with you! Big crowds is too much "friendliness" for me. Few by few - I am interested in others. Bus basically a nature lover who enjoys and thrives on times of solitude. That's why I'm going on the road.
Can’t wait for your presentation at the RTR! It will be my first RTR. I think you’re very brave to meet all the people in your camp. I’ll just be glad to see you from afar at your presentation!
Love your videos, 4:30 in they forced a short ad. And thanks for letting us know how RUclips is treating you and other creators. I only watch about 5 channels, so I need you to tell us stuff. I hope you're evening goes well and that you have a great day tomorrow. ❤❤❤
i just watched this whole video and I didn't see one advertisement. I'm gonna guess and say it's not monetized now. I sure hope you get this figured out with RUclips. Over the past week or so, I haven't been able to stop watching your adventures. No, I'm not a stalker, I'm just hooked on your channel. :-) Good Luck. Stay Kind, Stay Happy, Stay Free...
Oh, Carolyn, having had a corporate career for 26 years and then becoming an artist 👩🏻🎨 entrepreneur I can only imagine how frustrating it is to be dealing with the You Tube bullshit. It seems some CFO 👨💼 is always looking for ways to extract more and more from the hardworking masses. It totally sucks. You had a “formula” that was working and now you have to go back to the drawing board. I find such challenges to be a drain on my creativity. You are resourceful, smart and talented. You can do this! Your Friendlies are here for you.
How very confusing. I have heard that a lot of the RUclipsrs are having this same issue, on some facebook groups. It is crazy... and I think you're right about it being a "game." or maybe there's just a glitch in the system!
Good..they are playing ads and I would hate to not watch your videos! I really enjoy your videos and the way you present them! It is very informative and entertaining! Keep on going please!
Just be / stay true to you Carolyn...You are okay Wish I could contribute but being low income I can't but I do support you and continue in looking forward to all your videos Helps keep my dream to get out there myself.
The RTR is a pretty cool social experiment. Lots of introverts in a huge gathering. I'm glad it's held in such a huge desert :) As for RUclips, the YT algorithm is hard at work screwing everything up. LOL I figure they'll either fix it or folks will go on to the next great thing. I hope RUclips pulls their head out.
I think youtube is using each person's search history for ad in the video's. I've been seeing ad's for Menard's and cell phones since I started to research for house projects this winter and possibly changing our cell service if I can find a cheaper alternative. I did see 1 ad 1/3 of the way thru. So ad's are coming up. If watching the ad's (repeated over and over to where I know the words) really does count I will not skip when the option comes up. Hope you can get somewhere with the programmers and service dept. to stop flagging Every video. Lots of luck, blessings
I'm so glad to hear that you are heading west. I've been concerned about you being east this late in the year. I made it west in October and am so glad to be back in the desert.
It's Nov. 12 about 9:15 pm central time and I've seen your video 3 times, bringing it up fresh every time. The first time I saw one discounttire.com ad about midway thru the video, then the following 2 times - no ads at all. This all sounds like such a hassle - that's too bad they're making RUclipsrs go through all these hoops. They may think that there's so many RUclipsrs posting content now that they can do this stuff, unfortunately. I love your videos, Carolyn, and wish you the best! God bless.
Greetings Carolyn, I love your videos and watch every one of them. But I do understand You need a break. You are a person and not just a video factory. Please don't let the video factory at you tube burn you out. I hoped to go to the RTR and meet you but personal issues prevent my attendance this year. Sad because I was so looking forward to meeting you and so many other You Tube Personalites. Best wishes friendly
Love the idea of "mini-series" videos of your Summer. It seems like youtube may be trying to get you to do videos that they think will appeal to their idea of what advertisers want. Hogwash!! You keep doing "Coca-Cola".... You're the Real Thing and I love your Perfect Harmony!!! :)
Hi Carolyn~ Planning to leave soon as well for the RTR. I would love to meet you spontaneously:) I feel the same as you about having peeps in the camp. I have to get to know and feel comfortable around someone as well. Hope you stay safe!
Hello Caroly, it's not right what RUclips is doing to you and I hope you can resolve this issue with them. I look forward to seen more of your videos stay safe and God bless you.
Thanks for the info on how to get in touch and mail, I know I did ask you that a couple days ago, So now I'm watching this video and there are advertising commercials . I hope this all gets sorted out, I love watching your videos. Good luck, XOXOXO
HI, if memory serves me, Charles Kuralt used to end each show with "Let's see what's around the bend" ...He was a reporter with a motor home, and a weekly show, touring the country with great stories each week. It was one of my favorite shows. He was the pioneer of RV shows. Well, "See you around the bend!"
Saw two advertisements - one in beginning and another a few minutes in. Fellow Outgoing Introvert, I hear your need for not getting peopled-out. Hope to attend your class at the RTR. Take care of yourself.
Also the demonitising seems to be happening all over because the new algorithm is du.b right now and is a learning this. And no you tube only gets paid if there are ads and I don't think you had one. Maybe release the videos private at first? Not sure if this will work.
This whole thing with u tube is getting crazy. I ran upon a site yesterday that was clearly not advertising friendly. Not any of yours or the others but it didn’t apparently make u tubes bad side. His and Hers vlog guys have had the same as you so I don’t know what they think they’re doing but it’s not nice. Hang in there and don’t let them push you around. Take care.
Yes, the next video you see from me will be the one they flagged. Wait til you see it, there is NOTHING in it. and this one I swear at least and no flag.... makes no sense.
I got an ad on this video. On several videos (not yours) I've gotten 5 minute to 8 minute ads which sometimes are longer than the actual video. When the ads are this long I skip the ad. I think Utube does this to keep from paying the full amount of revenue to the producers of the videos. Thanks for all your videos!
Not only is RUclips messing with the creators, they mess with those of us that comment as well. Every time I come to the defense of the creator regarding this subject, they block me from getting replies. In other words, if you were to reply to this comment, I won't receive any notification. I would have to literally go back to each video I watched to see if there is a reply. RUclips/Google or whoever, doesn't like to be spoken against. You just keep being yourself Carolyn, and stand your ground 👍🏽😃
What an awesome idea playing your footage for us later. You have such a way of keeping us interesting. I would be so scared to invite others for a weekend with you. I'm so much an introvert. I can relate so much with you.
I just recently got approved for monetization. I was so excited. Almost every video I've posted since has been demonatized for the first day or two, (when most views happen) and then they monetize it again. Bastards! I think it's a stupid game so they don't have to pay out so much. I feel your pain. I also really love your videos! You rock!!! 💖💜💟
Carolyn, You can load your video as private and let the bot mark it as not suitable. Then request the manual review. After it is cleared you can make it public. That will avoid missing out on revenue when it is released.
I don't even like being around people I know. If it gets over four or five people at a time I just can't handle it. Thanks again for everything, you change my life so much . I Sund you a message to tell you about.
It's happening to smaller vloggers too!😞 They've done that to my videos that are completely safe, (nothing to flag). I vlog about flight attendant stuff/layovers. And youtube has taken DAYS to ok them, meaning I'm losing revenue too😣 I FEEL YA! Much 💜 to you!
I feel ya about wanting to be alone, U & Bob are the same way & I would be too when we start RVing... I HOPE everything goes well for you Carolyn. Wish I can tribute to $$. But on fixed income right now. Still trying to save for an rv. Lots of Luck on the RTR & be safe!!! Big Hugs to u & Capone!!!!!
Just commenting as you speak: 1. Smart cookie! 2. Awesome to catch your contact. 3. Desert is nice! 4. Wish I was going to the RTR but the size is why beyond me at this time. 5. Understand completely about the invitation to your home..., sheech, that is horrifying to me! 6. Honestly, I wouldn't want to disturb you by contacting for such a question of so little importance that can't be posted here, with hopes that you get a little wage from it. 7. I've run into copywrite difficulties with youtube. I'm not impressed and until I work it out, I'm not posting videos anymore. 8. See you around the bend!
I love your videos, I have to live vicariously through these videos. I just SO want to be living like you do. Ok, how about when you sign off, if you say "if I don't see you later, I'll see you later". LoL Anyway, any advertiser who doesn't want to put ads with your videos is, dare I say it, a moron? I hope one day our paths will cross. Happy trails lady!
upload as private , get it reviewed , apply for manual appeal , post after appeal THEN you get monetization from the moment you make it pubby. Google Tubes excuse has been that their AI is still learning .. BUT . lookit it this way, gives you a little bit of time delay from between where your ARE and where you WERE . added little bit of security. :) Little 'tubers aren't the only getting hassled by this 'apocolypse' .
On the job training for AI, now I believe I've heard it all. Make sense though, but it still blew me away. RUclips is making creators and consumers of their creations to pay the price to educate their AI. Why not practice on us. Don't want to invest company time or money in doing this. Let the little people do it. What a deal.
Mystic, that has been the plan and it'll get easier when/if I ever get a stockpile of videos going. My goal has been to be consistent with timing, but if they arent' getting monetized, I guess timing doesn't matter much.
Oh - there was an ad on this video at about 4:30 or so .... I saw some other folks say there weren't any ads on this one - but I just saw one. (Sorry my comments are so spaz!)
A lot of other RUclipsr creators are also very upset with the de-monetizing. Seems to me like RUclips is having internal problems. Maybe they have cut back on personnel. Hope it gets better for you and others.
I agree! I put my Rv on you tube and I got a flag, I'm not even monitized, only thing I thought was maybe it was tags? The flag was removed on appeal. No way to contact anyone.
#564 Hello, Carolyn. I enjoyed your videos, they are informative. Don't put nothing on the web, it will stay there forever! I have travelled all over with many videos of the USA and Canada that have spectacular scenery. Be careful at the RTR. Their are unscrupulous types there. HH
My Dear Kind Viewers == THIS video is NOT DE-monetized. So far this one has not been flagged. The video I was referring to I held back. I am waiting for them to approve it before I release it. (hopefully tomorrow). Thank you all so much for rallying on this! You Rock! - C
See, I told you it would get better over time. lol
Carolyn's RV Life Carolyn, yes, they are doing this to many RUclipsrs, no matter how many subs they have. It's like they just like jacking with people. What RUclips doesn't "get" is that nobody cares about there stupid ads.
Carolyn's RV Life Hi Carolyn! I couldn't be a RUclips content creator. The only advertiser I could get would be Depends undergarments because ever video I would make I would tell everyone they were going to shit their britches when they heard what my thoughts were! LoL! Anyways glad to see your doing well. Take care my friend and be safe out there.
I skip the ads the second it becomes available to skip the ad.
It's certain words that get you demonitized, like stupid or f word
There was a commercial in the middle of this video. Carry on Carolyn. Love your videos.
thanks for the report Kerry.
Keep doing what you're doing, don't let them get you down. The way you are living is fantastic, wish i was in a position to do the same. Happy trails an safe travels.
I am sorry you are having trouble with YT. Can't wait to see your WV videos. 🌞
Who could hate the desert?! It’s my spiritual home = and I miss it everyday!!!
Sad they can’t see the beauty that is there,
Kari
So sick of this demonitization crap...it's happening to big RUclipsrs too...I'm writing this comment as the second commercial runs on your video, so they're showing (just FYI)
Thank you!
I use RUclips Red, so I don't see ads. Hopefully they're still up. If it's any help, every time I respond to a comment I let the video run again. =D lol
tiny youtubers as well. Its so very sad because I depend on good content for ALL my entertainment. Conspiracy theory: maybe cable companies want us to come back. I quit cable tv because you tube is just more interesting and I know dozens of people who have done the same.
No ads on this video today.
No commercials if you view it on Chrome.
As a former IT specialist, I understand how many hours it takes to create these videos. Thank you for your videos. I wish I could give them 2 thumbs up.
Thank you very much for the recognition N. It means a lot!
I never realized that if you skip watching the ad that it de-monetizes the channel. I'll be watching the ads from now on because I love Carolyn's channel. More than watching Da Bears...well, maybe not. But I do love your channel!!!
Rich and I lost track of you for a bit. So glad you are revealing RUclips ridiculous plans. We will go to your website. Bravo!
There was an LG ad prior to your content. De-monetization of creators work, unacceptable. RUclips would be nothing without creators. I support you Carolyn as a subscriber & I look forward to your content. Thank you.
You'll never have to worry about me crowding you! I too require lots of space, I freak out when someone tries to camp close to me. I don't blame you for being pissed at YT. Hope to see you at RTR 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
Tina Anne Well, that's a given 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
I've heard about the Demonization on other channels as well. That is so much crap. So sorry this is happening to you. That is scary that is happening especially with you retiring from your marketing company. Hope all goes well & looking fwd to your next videos.
First of all I am so excited you will release the videos periodically of Ky, Tn, Va, NC! Also I'm so glad you'll be at the RTR, I will this year too, (but only for 5 days or so), I'm with you on crowds. I prefer being alone when I'm out in my van. I remember Bob saying that you might teach a class. I stink at finding good boondocking spots, and I hear you have a gift for finding places. yeeehaaaa.
Give it time, you will win! Because they need more information from RV life from work you have done in your past. Love you,and Mr, Capone. Thanks for having me,or all of us.😎🇱🇷🎙
I enjoy your videos Carolyn. Have some dinner and get some rest.
Thanks Cathy!
My husband and my daughter are introverts. My daughter even more than my husband. I am the extreme opposite. Your explanation in a previous video about being an introvert really helped me to understand them. I wish I had heard this 29 years ago! Your words were so wise, and I want to thank you so much for them.

I always see the ads often more than one ad... and watch the ads for my favorite channels. I also started watching my favorites a few days after I get the notice of a new video. I never get bored with the desert 🌵
That sunrise at the beginning of your video was absolutely stunning!
I fully enjoy watching your videos for entertainment purposes only. You and your personality really sets you apart from other video blogs.
I'm so sorry you are going thru this crap! Any excuse will do in this cut-throat world. Just remember that in the end, what is true and right, will come through. Hang in there, and know that you are loved.💝
Carolyn omg you have just explained exactly how I am. It’s definitely the people pleaser aspect, like having to put on a face, be presentable, entertaining when there’s a crowd, etc it’s not for me relaxing either.

I've noticed this has been happening to all my favorites that I follow every week
Love you Carolyn and Capone, wish I could support you but at this time can not but love your videos, watch them all, wishing you nothing but the very best and really hope your income goes way up, you are the best, beautiful lady.
I wish you luck on fighting RUclips. And be safe on your trip out west. Keep smiling!
Yes, I'm with you! Big crowds is too much "friendliness" for me. Few by few - I am interested in others. Bus basically a nature lover who enjoys and thrives on times of solitude. That's why I'm going on the road.
Can’t wait for your presentation at the RTR! It will be my first RTR. I think you’re very brave to meet all the people in your camp. I’ll just be glad to see you from afar at your presentation!
OMG! I can SO relate about "people" stressing us out! I am hosting Thanksgiving and am going nuts! ugh!!
Love your videos, 4:30 in they forced a short ad. And thanks for letting us know how RUclips is treating you and other creators. I only watch about 5 channels, so I need you to tell us stuff. I hope you're evening goes well and that you have a great day tomorrow. ❤❤❤
Thrilled to hear you are full time on you tube , that is just awesome . I am one very happy patreon ! 😀
Thanks to you and so many others who have supported me in this journey!
i just watched this whole video and I didn't see one advertisement. I'm gonna guess and say it's not monetized now. I sure hope you get this figured out with RUclips. Over the past week or so, I haven't been able to stop watching your adventures. No, I'm not a stalker, I'm just hooked on your channel. :-) Good Luck. Stay Kind, Stay Happy, Stay Free...
I've had a few get tagged for demonetizing. I always resubmit it and they approve it.
I can see where it can cause frustration.
Some vloggers are wising up and self demonetizing, using youtube strictly for advertising your off site content and directing followers there.
Oh, Carolyn, having had a corporate career for 26 years and then becoming an artist 👩🏻🎨 entrepreneur I can only imagine how frustrating it is to be dealing with the You Tube bullshit. It seems some CFO 👨💼 is always looking for ways to extract more and more from the hardworking masses. It totally sucks. You had a “formula” that was working and now you have to go back to the drawing board. I find such challenges to be a drain on my creativity.
You are resourceful, smart and talented. You can do this! Your Friendlies are here for you.
Thank you for the understand and encouragement! I do appreciate it very much
Bad RUclips, I've been waiting all day for your video! I would love to boondock with you. Keep up the good work.
Looking forward to meeting you at the RTR Carolyn.
We love you Carolyn! Feel free to vent anytime. Here for ya😉
Congratulations on going full time with RUclips Carolyn! :-)
Thank you very much Steven! That's very kind! :-)
How very confusing. I have heard that a lot of the RUclipsrs are having this same issue, on some facebook groups. It is crazy... and I think you're right about it being a "game." or maybe there's just a glitch in the system!
Thanks for the update. The D monetization is so frustrating! For your reference RUclips shot me a ad at four minutes 40 seconds
Wanted to let you know a "candy crush" ad was before your video. Good luck and happy & safe travels. ❤
Carolyn & Capone keep on rocking!!!!
Good..they are playing ads and I would hate to not watch your videos! I really enjoy your videos and the way you present them! It is very informative and entertaining! Keep on going please!
Just be / stay true to you Carolyn...You are okay Wish I could contribute but being low income I can't but I do support you and continue in looking forward to all your videos Helps keep my dream to get out there myself.

I hope RUclips pulls their head out.
No ads for me in UK. All the best Carolyn .
This video cracked me up! Loved the rant and how you just let you be you!
I think youtube is using each person's search history for ad in the video's. I've been seeing ad's for Menard's and cell phones since I started to research for house projects this winter and possibly changing our cell service if I can find a cheaper alternative. I did see 1 ad 1/3 of the way thru. So ad's are coming up. If watching the ad's (repeated over and over to where I know the words) really does count I will not skip when the option comes up.

I don't know there was people like me. I always said. I can be a lone but. I'm not lonely. Love your videos
Yeah! You're heading west. There are beautiful places everywhere but I esoecially love the peacefulness of the desert.
I'm so glad to hear that you are heading west. I've been concerned about you being east this late in the year. I made it west in October and am so glad to be back in the desert.
It's Nov. 12 about 9:15 pm central time and I've seen your video 3 times, bringing it up fresh every time.

You’re the best Carolyn. You deserve to get paid for your videos without you tube hassling you.
Greetings Carolyn, I love your videos and watch every one of them. But I do understand You need a break. You are a person and not just a video factory. Please don't let the video factory at you tube burn you out. I hoped to go to the RTR and meet you but personal issues prevent my attendance this year. Sad because I was so looking forward to meeting you and so many other You Tube Personalites. Best wishes friendly
We All Love You Carolyn🌈& Capone🐾🐾🌲🌎
woof!
Safe Travels Carolyn!! Wish I could go some place warm. Winter doesn’t suit me at all.
Love the idea of "mini-series" videos of your Summer.
It seems like youtube may be trying to get you to do videos that they think will appeal to their idea of what advertisers want.
Hogwash!! You keep doing "Coca-Cola".... You're the Real Thing and I love your Perfect Harmony!!! :)
Don't worry.Your videos are enjoyable.I do not know what the you tubers are looking for.They take the fun out of everything.Prevail.
Hi Carolyn~ Planning to leave soon as well for the RTR. I would love to meet you spontaneously:) I feel the same as you about having peeps in the camp. I have to get to know and feel comfortable around someone as well. Hope you stay safe!
Hello Caroly, it's not right what RUclips is doing to you and I hope you can resolve this issue with them. I look forward to seen more of your videos stay safe and God bless you.
Thanks for the info on how to get in touch and mail, I know I did ask you that a couple days ago, So now I'm watching this video and there are advertising commercials . I hope this all gets sorted out, I love watching your videos. Good luck, XOXOXO
More and more folks are complaining about the demonetizations. The ads are playing: before and during. It is a way to improve YT's bottom line.
HI, if memory serves me, Charles Kuralt used to end each show with "Let's see what's around the bend" ...He was a reporter with a motor home, and a weekly show, touring the country with great stories each week. It was one of my favorite shows. He was the pioneer of RV shows. Well, "See you around the bend!"
So sorry I love watching your adventures
Saw two advertisements - one in beginning and another a few minutes in.
Fellow Outgoing Introvert, I hear your need for not getting peopled-out.
Hope to attend your class at the RTR.
Take care of yourself.
Hope to meet you there!!!
I love the color of your walls!
Thank you!
Also the demonitising seems to be happening all over because the new algorithm is du.b right now and is a learning this. And no you tube only gets paid if there are ads and I don't think you had one. Maybe release the videos private at first? Not sure if this will work.
There was an ad at the begin of your video. I hope it will continue. Love from the Netherlands.
Love your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Your the best! If they want to rip you off, wait like you said. We still get to know how ya are. Be Safe!!
This whole thing with u tube is getting crazy. I ran upon a site yesterday that was clearly not advertising friendly. Not any of yours or the others but it didn’t apparently make u tubes bad side. His and Hers vlog guys have had the same as you so I don’t know what they think they’re doing but it’s not nice. Hang in there and don’t let them push you around. Take care.
Yes, the next video you see from me will be the one they flagged. Wait til you see it, there is NOTHING in it. and this one I swear at least and no flag.... makes no sense.
I got an ad on this video. On several videos (not yours) I've gotten 5 minute to 8 minute ads which sometimes are longer than the actual video. When the ads are this long I skip the ad. I think Utube does this to keep from paying the full amount of revenue to the producers of the videos. Thanks for all your videos!
Not only is RUclips messing with the creators, they mess with those of us that comment as well. Every time I come to the defense of the creator regarding this subject, they block me from getting replies. In other words, if you were to reply to this comment, I won't receive any notification. I would have to literally go back to each video I watched to see if there is a reply. RUclips/Google or whoever, doesn't like to be spoken against. You just keep being yourself Carolyn, and stand your ground 👍🏽😃
Well, haven't read the comments yet, but jfyi You Have Ads !! Lol Glad you'll be back on real time.
What an awesome idea playing your footage for us later. You have such a way of keeping us interesting. I would be so scared to invite others for a weekend with you. I'm so much an introvert. I can relate so much with you.
Add just went up!
I saw no ads on this one this morning. Strange that others have seen ads.
Thank you for the good videos happy holidays early
I just recently got approved for monetization. I was so excited. Almost every video I've posted since has been demonatized for the first day or two, (when most views happen) and then they monetize it again. Bastards! I think it's a stupid game so they don't have to pay out so much. I feel your pain. I also really love your videos! You rock!!! 💖💜💟
I just watched an advertisement before watching this video
you got me behind you no matter what you do.
You are not the only one upset with RUclips. A homesteading channel talked about this last week! Hope it gets straightened out.
Ironically this video had an ad 3 minutes in. Keep your chin up we look forward to your visits.
I like "See you around the bend." It's nice of you to consider another YTuber! Debra Dickinson is another KIND person.
I guess that is why some videos don't have a ad on it. It's usually within the first 1000-4000 views.
Carolyn, You can load your video as private and let the bot mark it as not suitable. Then request the manual review. After it is cleared you can make it public. That will avoid missing out on revenue when it is released.
I don't even like being around people I know. If it gets over four or five people at a time I just can't handle it. Thanks again for everything, you change my life so much . I Sund you a message to tell you about.
You could call the video's ; Just a little something to brighten your winter's day !!!
It's happening to smaller vloggers too!😞 They've done that to my videos that are completely safe, (nothing to flag). I vlog about flight attendant stuff/layovers. And youtube has taken DAYS to ok them, meaning I'm losing revenue too😣 I FEEL YA! Much 💜 to you!
I feel ya about wanting to be alone, U & Bob are the same way & I would be too when we start RVing... I HOPE everything goes well for you Carolyn. Wish I can tribute to $$. But on fixed income right now. Still trying to save for an rv. Lots of Luck on the RTR & be safe!!! Big Hugs to u & Capone!!!!!
Just commenting as you speak: 1. Smart cookie! 2. Awesome to catch your contact. 3. Desert is nice! 4. Wish I was going to the RTR but the size is why beyond me at this time. 5. Understand completely about the invitation to your home..., sheech, that is horrifying to me! 6. Honestly, I wouldn't want to disturb you by contacting for such a question of so little importance that can't be posted here, with hopes that you get a little wage from it. 7. I've run into copywrite difficulties with youtube. I'm not impressed and until I work it out, I'm not posting videos anymore. 8. See you around the bend!
DO NOT LET WHAT OTHERS SAY OR THINK RUIN YOUR DAY....BE HAPPY, BE FREE AND BE KIND....
I love your videos, I have to live vicariously through these videos. I just SO want to be living like you do. Ok, how about when you sign off, if you say "if I don't see you later, I'll see you later". LoL Anyway, any advertiser who doesn't want to put ads with your videos is, dare I say it, a moron? I hope one day our paths will cross. Happy trails lady!
Variety is the spice of life. A little desert and a little green green grass. 😊
upload as private , get it reviewed , apply for manual appeal , post after appeal THEN you get monetization from the moment you make it pubby. Google Tubes excuse has been that their AI is still learning .. BUT . lookit it this way, gives you a little bit of time delay from between where your ARE and where you WERE . added little bit of security. :) Little 'tubers aren't the only getting hassled by this 'apocolypse' .
On the job training for AI, now I believe I've heard it all. Make sense though, but it still blew me away. RUclips is making creators and consumers of their creations to pay the price to educate their AI. Why not practice on us. Don't want to invest company time or money in doing this. Let the little people do it. What a deal.
Mystic Virgo, awesome advice. I'll do that from now on.☺
Mystic, that has been the plan and it'll get easier when/if I ever get a stockpile of videos going. My goal has been to be consistent with timing, but if they arent' getting monetized, I guess timing doesn't matter much.
Thats good love real time is what I enjoy thank-you for that xoxoxox
Oh - there was an ad on this video at about 4:30 or so .... I saw some other folks say there weren't any ads on this one - but I just saw one. (Sorry my comments are so spaz!)
A lot of other RUclipsr creators are also very upset with the de-monetizing. Seems to me like RUclips is having internal problems. Maybe they have cut back on personnel. Hope it gets better for you and others.
I agree! I put my Rv on you tube and I got a flag, I'm not even monitized, only thing I thought was maybe it was tags? The flag was removed on appeal. No way to contact anyone.
#564 Hello, Carolyn. I enjoyed your videos, they are informative. Don't put nothing on the web, it will stay there forever! I have travelled all over with many videos of the USA and Canada that have spectacular scenery. Be careful at the RTR. Their are unscrupulous types there. HH
👍I hope all goes well at the RTR 🤗💞🤗
