I think there has been many good arguments for both side that I respect and can understand. But Duffan11, attacking the OP 10 pages in like that just aint cool man. There is no reason to go that far, I agree that the OP does seem "whiny", but you know what? that's his right as a free man (assuming male). That's why their are forums like this to vent a little rage and to have a civil discussion with other members of the FTB community about things he doesn't like.So the OP author is pissed that a group of friends made a server and play on it. It just so happens they are modders and have the latest toys. So in theory you are bitching at friends for playing with each other and some of them happen to be popular in the mc community. Congratz for being a little bitch! Get some friends and go play on your private server! Stop complaining.
I'll respond to this point specifically because I do not mind sharing. I earn nothing from Twitch as I am not a partner. From YouTube, from a year of making videos now, I have made a grand total of.... *drumroll*... $230.47. Yep, I'm in the money now. I know I am not the most prolific video maker among the group, and others have made more. But when we've discussed this among ourselves, it certainly didn't sound to me like the others I talked to were making much more. Some people can make it as their day job on Twitch or YouTube. That, however is a very small group.
I'm not a regular on twitch, any chance you (or anyone else) could provide a link to said video once it becomes available?yes, he did, and he debated some of the posts on his stream.
if you wait a few hours you might find it back in the twitch video archive
(Edit: warning, wall of text!)
As for your seemingly angry attitude toward the people on ForgeCraft. Get over it. They're friends, for the most part, and mostly because they share interests (I assume). Go get your friends and have some fun. This is a game after all.
(Had to get it off my chest, this whole thread is frustrating.)
TB does it for a living.@Everlast:
I don't know where you got anyone saying that anyone making videos are martyrs. My point was that unless you are a "big name" you aren't going to be raking in cash on YouTube. Even then people like Total Biscuit, Yogscast, probably even FPSRussia are middle of the road channels.
Also consider YouTube is thinking of charging a fee to watch some channels. I assume big ones like WWE, EMI Records, and stuff from music channels. So the in it for the money seems to me to have competition from the site being posted.
Also I do believe people can post videos just to post them. Nothing else other then to be helpful.

Still, all those names are 1's in millions. Literally. =)
Russia's actually a really funny guy. Lives(Or lived haven't talked to him in awhile) here in Georgia. He did it purely for the money though. He wanted to be a millionaire by 25 or 30.TB does it for a living.
The Yogscast make enough money to run an entire office
FPSRussia is in the top 5 most subscribed people on youtube, he may not make many videos but the ones he does make rake in HUGE amounts of views.
Your examples of "middle of the road" are quite wide of the mark.
I feel like I need a new account :cI feel like I should change my avatar, since my face was all over Slow's stream.
Coulda sworn that guy was a yank...Russia's actually a really funny guy. Lives(Or lived haven't talked to him in awhile) here in Georgia. He did it purely for the money though. He wanted to be a millionaire by 25 or 30.
