That's the worst thing about all this. You would think that because his audience is mostly kids and they are most likely to copy his behavior, that You Tube or someone would have done something to prevent the kids from watching his edgy content.

Why would you watch a video about boobs on You Tube?

Just go to an actual site with videos about boobs.

[up][up] Well in the olden days of Youtube, someone might post clips of those kinds of videos before anyone high up knew it and took them down.

I'm personally very glad this guy got what he truly deserved.

The fact that his and his brother's biggest audience is children is highly disturbing.

You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!

Mat Pat weighs in on Youtube Incident #4,536

Did he "solve" the Youtube problem?

Dude, it's against the rules to just dump a link with barely any context to it. Put some kind of detailed description for it.

[up][up][up] Another guess - he somehow forgets that "adaptability to motion sickness" is a thing again.

[up] Bioshock Infinite episode of Game Theory. His entire logic relied on "people would get too motion sick to live up high in Columbia", ignoring the very real fact that people adapt to motion sickness because some people fucking live on ships and have lived throughout history.

Seriously, that was his whole argument against a city in the sky.

It's only surpassed by his ludicrous "Skyrim doctor conspiracy" video explaining the arrow-knee thing, outright ignoring that it's merely Celtic slang for getting married.

We've been talking about the Logan Paul incident for 2 pages now.

I really don't see that as clickbait-y or nondescript. That's what the video is about it, "Mat Pat weighing in on the recent Youtube controversy." I could add, "and he goes in-depth as to why this is a continuous problem," but I don't really want to.

I'll admit my wording was vague, but I'm not changing the post.

Avoid posts that contain only links, without context. Not everyone can or wants to click out of the site to see what you're talking about. To help advance the discussion, quote relevant passages from the linked content or provide a summary.

There's barely any context in there outside of "Mattpat said stuff". For the people who refuse to watch him (of which there's evidently a lot), summarize what he said for the benefit of them.

YouTube has made changes to their monetization program.

Starting today, new creators applying to the You Tube Partner Program will need to have accumulated 4,000 hours of video watch-time for their videos within the past 12 months and have 1,000 subscribers to be eligible to earn advertising revenue from their channels. In the past, the minimum threshold to participate in the revenue-sharing program was 10,000 views.

Google preferred ads will now only run on videos that have been human verified for their compliance with You Tube's advertiser-friendly guidelines. The company expects to complete this verification of video placements in Google Preferred by mid-Feb (US) and by end of March (ROW.)

Most of the channels I follow have reacted positively to the change, but with the caveat that now they really need to do something about the big channels that are causing everyone else to receive the effects of their poor decisions.

As usual though, the change does nothing for animators, though at this point they probably realize that.

It mainly hurts people just starting out who are intending on making a job out of youtube. Which is honestly a poor decision, it's really not the best decision to start something like Twitch or Youtube with the intention of turning it into a full time job. Like with the previous update to the partner program, they wouldn't be earning much out of it for a while anyways.
