Changes are coming to the channel!
In a near future, I will change the system for requests. The reasons for this are many, but most of all it is because I earn basically ZERO income from this channel since all videos I make, get copyrighted. That means, I do not earn a single penny on the ADS, making the number of views not matter. In order for me to be able to grow the channel, and actually make a living on doing what I love, I will DELETE the Patreon account I have. I will move ALL remaining Patreon requests, over to Youtube in a brand new voting system! Do not misunderstand, ALL remaining requests will be made into Reaction videos. And I will keep the Patreon account until they are done, since not all videos are possible to post on Youtube (copyright). When I am done, I will shut down my Patreon account.
The other reason is, that taking requests on Patreon, did not work well for me. There are too many songs there, that simply do not fit into my viewers expectations. Even if the person that requested it loves it, mabye even I love it, it does not speak to the majority of my viewers, nor does it get any new views (meaning I don't get new subscribers from it) and that hurts the channel. And a channel that is hurting, hurts me. And in the end, it hurts you.
The new voting system will work like this: I will make new membership tiers HERE on Youtube instead of Patreon.
The members will be able to vote EVERY month, for the next reaction video. ONLY members can vote. I will take into consideration, every single month, the suggestions people leave in the comments. That way, I will ensure that I give you content that you ACTUALLY want to see, and that I will enjoy too. There will be videos that you do not need to vote for, because I will make them anyway (ABBA, TOMMY J etc).
It will also be easier for me to take control of the channel. I know, I am way too nice, and I always want to meet everyones requests and demands. But I realize, I cannot. It simply is impossible. I will break apart. And by even trying to do that, I am destroying the joy I have of making the content. And we cannot have that happen.
It is not within reason, that I record a video, spend 3 hours of editing it, 1 hour of uploading and quality checking it, and the return I get, is 200 views. That is the same thing as working 4 hours, and getting paid for 30 minutes. I think you all understand what I mean, how I think, and I am positive that this will work out perfectly once I get started.
I WILL NOTIFY YOU ALL WHEN IT'S TIME. Thank you for all your patience, I love you guys so much! Cya soon! // TOE
