2014 vs. 2016 (I think I improved a little)

@cryaotic yo, remember that weird ass dream you had like 2 years ago?

You have improved. :]

Making YouTube your fulltime job

Okay, yes I totally just googled that picture, but that’s not the point lol.

So, everyone should know by now you can basically get a job as a full time YouTube which is great and all but the question is….how? How do the famous YouTubers do it sooo fast? Do they bribe people to advertise their channel or something? These and so many more questions go through my head as I’m struggling to top off my own channel. At first, it was the partnership thing with YouTube but once you get on there’s no guarantee that you’ll become famous just like them. Now let me back up. I’m not saying I want a bigger following for the money or the fame or the partnership. Matter of fact, I’m already partnered for my 2,580 subbies and I’m quite happy that I even came that far. The point is, I want to grow to have that interaction. You know, have people give there different opinions about your videos and give you the criticism that you need to get better at what you do. Right now, I have about a few people that actually keep track of what I do and I’m wondering…HOW DO THEY DO IT? And also, how were they balancing out their regular jobs with YouTube? Because I find it so hard especially owning a dog and having noisy neighbors to record and edit a decent video. I’ve come to the conclusion that maybe…just maybe they’re consistent but they’re also probably either buying advertisements, collabing/got connections, or buying views and/or subscribers till it looks pleasing to the eye. What do you think? Repost this if you think the same.  

Get lucky.

That’s really it. You get lucky. Some people collaborate, other people mimic what is popular at the time, but the most important factor outside of making your content actually enjoyable to watch is getting lucky.

YouTube is an incredibly over-saturated market than it was when I first started, so I’ll tell you what I tell everyone: Do not get into YouTube with the intention of becoming one of the top tier ball players (Pewds, Mark, Jack etc.) You should always start it out with and only with it as a hobby in mind. Enjoy yourself, it’s just something to do in your spare time. If you get lucky, hey awesome, but don’t set yourself up for disappointment if it doesn’t work out. No matter how good your content is, with how many people there are trying to do the same thing and get noticed on YouTube these days it’s akin to winning the lottery when it comes to getting exposure.

Also, I know this doesn’t relate to you but I know people who have done it in the past and it’s only been a burden on their life, do not, do NOT, quit your job with aspirations of being a big ol’ tuber person. I get that following your dreams or the like is a fantasy some people strive for, but I have seen so many crumble because of it. I have seen fathers quit their job and lose all income trying to so, struggling to even pay for their children anymore. I have seen young people fall into depression when they realize their 4th Happy Wheels video recorded with a Bandicam logo on it only got 8 views.

Shit ain’t kosher.

Enjoy it as a hobby. Get lucky. Collaborate with friends (seriously don’t just collaborate with another YouTube you barely know. There’s no synergy and it comes off as awkward and forced). And please for the love of YouTube god don’t make another carbon copy of what’s already out there. Originality is so damn refreshing on a platform filled with imitators.

Here’s the full song he’s trying to sing X

Atomic. Atomic.

It’s BACK!! Yes! Thank you! I’m totally digging the story so far! \o/

And so begins the DnD fanart.

This is a good time.

Get fucked, Karen.

Accurate.

Goku chillin’ with @cryaotic and @russmoney TGI Videogams everybody

Thank you Goku, thank you.

I wonder if Im post too much fan art that it’s getting annoying (・_・;)

An long overdue apology

Hey guys

I’ve decided I’ve overreacted and have decided to come back to the Cryaotic fandom

I’ve realized how wrong I was to think of Cry as a horrible person. I remembered all the good times I had and the friends I’ve made. I miss listening to Cry&Crew until it’s 5am. I miss the antics we have in the fandom tag until drama shows up like cryaotic-exposed. I’m in the wrong. And I feel bad.

Let’s start an orgy :’)

Let’s vote for Mop.

Well to be fair I ‘am’ a horrible piece of shit so I don’t blame ya. :D

I don’t use that kind of language.

hey man long time no draw a redraw of sorts of this old thing from 2012

You’ve definitely improved over the years. :D

Cry!Mei after watching Cry&Russ TGI Overwatch shenanigans.  *transparent*

Bonus: 

I fully support Cry!Mei and all it entails.

Does anyone know what @cryaotic’s icon is a picture of? I been in this goddamn “fandom” (which I love, don’t get me wrong) for so long and yet I still don’t know what it is.? Of course I’m not usually super up-to-date with everything because of college, life, and stupid, boring responsibilities… I’m such an awful fan/adult. (/~\)

(Sorry if there are grammar or spelling errors. I’m to lazy to check that shit. It’s 3:30 am right now =.=)

I used to draw, and it was a drawing I did way back when. :D

Here y’go!

umm hi i’m rewatching cry’s okami playthrough rn and i got up to part 27 which is one of the videos he had to make private and i know another channel uploaded all of his privatized videos and i found the okami video i was looking for but it said it’s not available?? so uh my question is does anyone know where else i could watch it or maybe have it saved and can send it to me?? thanks

In the description of the video before it I linked to a mirror. :]

Though I think the most ridiculous discourse I ever saw about a youtuber was when someone flipped their shit on me for supporting cryaotic because he “endorsed queer baiting in pewdiepies app”

In reference to a joke scene in pewdiepies app where the two have a “tender moment” only to be interrupted by a phone call from Felix’s (girlfriend? Fiance? Idk I don’t follow them) martzia.

I was like “okay a, crys actually pansexual himself and lgbt people are more than allowed to joke about their sexuality and um b, THEY’RE NOT QUEER BAITING OH MY GOD THEY ARE REAL PEOPLE NOT FICTIONAL CHARACTERS”

That ‘is’ pretty damn ridiculous.

I have plenty of positives and even more negatives, but focusing on something so childish is just asinine.

Hate me for something like my controversial viewpoints or my ignorance towards social topics that gets a rise out of people when I try to talk like I know everything going on in the world.

Not for just helping a friend with his game in a harmless fashion.

Whoever told you that needs to learn to cook a better grilled cheese, because their life just isn’t good right now apparently and that’s probably the only thing that’ll fix it.
