Should I join or no?

**Syphon_Filter** · 02-28-2013

I have got an offer from a Youtube network called TheNextGamerNetWork. They have asked to become a partner with them for 5 years. They also said that they will pay me for my videos and etc. They have asked me to send a picture of my Youtube account stats which I did but still I haven't decided yet. Should I join or no? What do you guys think?

**Sir_Scud** · 02-28-2013

Even though I have no idea about the whole Partner program, I think it boils down to this: Do you want to be locked in to a commitment for 5 years creating vids? Is there rammifications if you don't wanna keep making vids? And will this lock you out of joining other networks?

I'm not sure how making money on youtube works, but isn't it based on views? I checked out that youtube channel. They only have a moderate amount of subs and views. Definitely no Machinima (not that it needs to be).

Just curious. In the end this sounds cool, but I would be making sure I get the best deal. Just my 2 cents, which doesn't mean much since I have no effing clue how any of this works

Yeah, once I join with them. I can't join other networks and I have even told them. I will not take money from them because I do it just for fun and nothing more. Few other networks are inviting me as well loool. My channel earning per day is about 40 dollars and per year is around 14,000 dollars and they just focus on making money and etc. I didn't join with them yet and I just told him if I will join it will be just for helping your network and nothing more. At anytime, if didn't like it I will leave and nothing more.

I have made up my mind and I will not join. Even though I have sent a picture off my acocunt stats and I would tell about my decision.

**Fenix** · 02-28-2013

If I could get paid for making youtube videos, I'd totally do it in a heartbeat.
Though I wouldnt do it if i'm locked in for 5 years, I'd either do it on a yearly basis or have some kind of "not forced to make videos" type of clause

I will be by self better and no need for money or headache

**Beardy** · 02-28-2013

I would stay away from small networks like that apply for partnership with a community like Yeousch.

**RyanGT** · 02-28-2013

What kind of videos do you make?

I've never heard of this before.

Thats cool. Zia ia a greek name and it came from a saint.

@Kuro

Pretty cool you got offers. I've been able to monetize my channel awhile ago but chose not to. Don't think I can upload any quality vids lol.
Iam not like before active and I have had 2 channels they have featured over 5000 videos and I have got some incredible videos. But too bad they were suspended due to false claims were made by Sony and Konami. Since then I have lost my great moody for videos and etc. Now, I don't upload much nor showing some hard stuff. I remember when Pixeljunk monsters the final level at the time no one knew how to finish it, and I did by spending 2 hours until I found out the right strategy to use. After I uploaded the video within 30 miniutes I have got 75 thousands views.

@Sir_Scud

Your channel looks cool. Might check some stuff out myself

I don't blame you for turning it down, I imagine it would've been a lot of work and stress for something that you seem to do as a passion.

Thank you.

I know my friend and they are all useless. I can't wait when this Youtube will go to hell. Those claims are completely useless as they tell you that your video has soundtrack in the game and most remove it. Youtube will flag your video and make money from it as the original people who owns the copyright didn't complain. Thank you for your sub.

Make commentaries over the gameplay then you will have a lesser chance of receiving copyright strikes.

I was thinking about that but the problem is. We live in a dam an apartment with all family and all the time noise, noise, noise, and noise in the room. I would have to make the commentaries after I have finished with the videos and edit and talk. I can't wait until I will have my own house which never will happen.

@RyanGT

Was skimming through your videos .. 51 platinum trophies ?!?
Thats awesome man.

Thank you. I should have now over 100 platinum trophies as I have over 120 games that I haven't touched. But I don't no what have happened to me. After last April of 2012 I have completely lost my trophy moody and just kept playing BF3 as I have a fever from this game.
