I'm not surprised wolf dropped it and didn't come back... He only posted his first video on here that was this style, and look at what he got in return on that thread...

NEW TOP 5 AWESOME Paintball HITS Episode 1!!!!

So MCB got skipped for release 2, 3, and 4...

Insult the creator of the content in his thread, and why would he drop by for more? First thread went to pot quickly (and he did respond in that one...) so why check back quickly on this one? He is making content and getting views, which is promoting the sport, and maybe putting a few bucks in his pocket, if he is lucky. But, how much does he spend to MAKE that tiny bit of money?...

Just remember, all it takes is ONE guy to adclick bomb you and you lose your revenue stream from adsense... And there is nothing you can do about it. Doing youtube videos for profit is silly as you will get burned eventually by google adsense and the haters out there. Especially if you post woodsball videos on paintball sites that cater to speedballers.

That last run through WAS the best I have seen on youtube... And worthy of its own thread. IMO. I'd be pretty excited to have footage like that as well!

A few years ago, a mod on X7og got ticked at me because I posted one of my videos on there, and it was when Prince William was having his bachelor party, since we had an event planned for the week before, we thought it would be fun to pretend to be them for a video. So I posted it over there, and the mod got all ticked off that someone would "trick" them into watching my video... As I was new to the site at the time...

Here is the link to the thread

Prince William played woodsball Saturday. Video

Seriously... The idea that I was doing this to "drive traffic" to my paintball youtube channel, made him go nuclear. I don't have ads on my videos, and it was done as a JOKE.

Almost got banned for that one, my posts were "reviewed" for over a year after that. And really, it was done in fun, and my whole field was in on it. (my middle name is William btw...) But, you always have that one guy that takes our sport SO SERIOUS>>>> (not saying anyone here is doing anything like that, just putting out an example of the way some people get bent about youtube content creators, who post their hard work on forums).



Oh, and my video was picked up by THREE news organizations who thought it was really footage of their bachelor party. Hahahaaahaha! It got over 1,000 views in ONE day.

Well, I thought it was funny, and my friends thought it was funny. But I rarely post on X7og as a result...

Here is the video...

I'm sorry if I'm coming across as some sort of hater, unworthy of MCber person, I just feel that it isn't the right thing to use these forums for personal gain and not actually participate in anything.
I Thank you all for your support, and I am not ignoring you Bloop, I am on 13 different paintball Forums, and I do cherish each and every one, i come on and read as much as possible on MCB, and talk about it whenever i travel for the sport, and I appreciate everyone very much here>

My problem is whenever i post, i rely on email updates to let me know how people are feeling about stuff, and I never get any, there are 4 pages of replies here, and i only got 1 email notification even though i clicked immediate response, Its not just this forum, but for some reason Most forums, so i have to manually check every website to see whats up... and I do, it just takes alot of time.
I make my show for the fun of it, and I love when a new player says they want to play when they see my vids, it makes me feel like i'm doing my part to help the sport, and trust me, i'm not getting rich of youtube money LOL
I have a couple close friends named FPSRussia with over 3 Million Subs, and Harley frome Epic Meal time with the same, ask them about that stuff, yes i do like having people subscribe to me, but with only 17,000 subs, my goal is not to make money, its simply to show everyone how much fun we have, and share it.

I used to check in to sites much more often, but between twitter, Instagram, facebook, Creating my content, going through emails on paintball, not to mention being a single Dad and running 2 Business', well i just loose track of stuff, so I humbly Apologize if it seem's I'm "Using" you, i didn't intend to offend.

hey man, a legitimate response from the real person behind the content is more than I could ask for.

I don't think there's a need to apologize, just clarification. I'm pretty content with whatever goes on. Takes quite a bit to upset me

I have the same issue with instant email notifications on the CAD thread on PBN. They way they tend to work is they only email you for the first post, but other posts may stack up. You have to go back to that thread (most easily by clicking the link in the email) and then when you leave it will send you another email when there is a new post.

Not a problem. I learned the hard way by only thinking there was one post c/o the email. I just read it in the email and that was that. Thought it was curious that a few weeks went by and no new emails. I went and checked the thread and there was a TON of posting going on that I had missed.
