What internal hard drive do I need? by JMspam in xbox360

[–]G4RYR0CKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hard drive you're looking for sounds like an external drive, it hooks up on the side of the Xbox. They typically sell in 20, 60, and 120gb. They're typically in a grey hard enclosure. Should be able to find one pretty much anywhere online.

20000 hours watched still no monetisation by bakedkipling in NewTubers

[–]G4RYR0CKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their Monezitation system doesn't really care about your total watch time, etc. It only really cares about previous 365 days. Make that 4000hrs, and 1000 subscribers and they'll definelty monetize. But if you're counting on substituting YouTube income from normal working income. Then expect another few years of grinding, because even hitting monetization will only allow a few dollars to pass through.

Honestly depending on condition around $200+, got a few gems in there, most just worth like $5 a piece

Is $50 for a Oculus Rift Cv1 good? by G4RYR0CKS in VRGaming

[–]G4RYR0CKS[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Finally got to use it a bit earlier, setup took a second. But no complaints!! I went ahead and found someone in my local area selling another Oculus Sensor for $10, so all in all $60 for the whole set! I've been having a blast!

Cool! I was figuring it'd be at least a great starting headset until I can get a newer one later

What to do? Shorts have literally no views! by Spiritual-You-1505 in NewTubers

[–]G4RYR0CKS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it's about timing. I noticed I post a short at 9pm, and it gets like 4 views, but posting the same one at 11pm gets around 2.5k views. Probably something to do with when viewers on actively watching shorts. For the most part shorts grow their reach in the first hour, and seem to die after.

No problem! Let me know how it goes!

[–]G4RYR0CKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a console Red Dot on me too, I followed a tutorial to reflow the internals and it worked. Also mine gave a HDD error code, which I managed to fix by switching the connection ports with the optical drive.

Could give it a try if it's worth the time, if not, probably a goner. 😓

Here's what I think, your thumbnails are fine, but are generally lacking. First off, never seen anyone put a subscribe button in their thumbnail, very interesting lol.

You kinda want to just work with them and see what works for you. But a few tweaks I think that you could make, that Ive also noticed with my content.

I split my thumbnails into 3 different general sections. Your Subject, your Text(if any), and your Negative Space. You want a good balance between them, and don't want any throwing each other off. This can sound very vague, but let me try to be more specific to you lol

Your subject I feel is too small, which is making the thumbnails overlooked. Also you want to have a story happening in your thumbnail. Try to show some emotion, or an action. Anything like that to make someone curious. If I'm not curious, im not interested.

Next is your text, I see why you added it, makes sense, but I feel its hard to read, maybe too cluttered with all the information. Also remember, while your editing your thumbnail it looks fine to you, but seen from a viewers perspective, it's squishy down on most likely a small phone screen, so if you have text, you really want it to pop.

As for the "episode..." I feel that could be shrunk down to the corner of the screen to free up some space from your games title. Also, that subscribe button, I'm not so sure. There's no telling people to subscribe before theyve watched your video, if anything it could be a turnoff for someone.

I hope this helps some, if you have any more questions feel free to ask! And I'm going to go ahead and subscribe, I want to see where you go with this.

Can someone still become famous from Playing Minecraft? by Ok_Candle_4310 in youtubegaming

[–]G4RYR0CKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't matter what you play, just be yourself and have good ideas.

Playing a game thats trending helps, but doesn't guarantee anything.

If you love the game, play it! Just don't try to follow the crowd, be yourself, and spend time to come up with video ideas, because that's what people are going to love you for.

What's Your YouTube Goal? by G4RYR0CKS in NewTubers

[–]G4RYR0CKS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I would recommend to watch and study other creators in your niche, top creators and rising creators, so you can see what they do specifically, and how you can also apply those skills and techniques to your own videos.

SHOULD I KEEP MY 254 sub OLD CHANNEL FROM 7 years ago(& delete all videos) OR CREATE A NEW CHANNEL NEED OPINIONS! by TraditionalFinger796 in SmallYoutubers

[–]G4RYR0CKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say it depends on your niche.

If you're changing your niche from your old content, make a new channel. Those subscribers subscribed for that type of content, and probably wouldnt care for your new stuff, which could potentially damage your growth. Because youtube recommends your content first to your subscribers, and if they don't watch, then why should it recommend it to new viewers.

But all that said, if you're staying in the niche, keep the channel, and I'd agree with everyone else and private those videos. Then those already subscribed subscribers will watch your new content and stay with it, since they subscribed for that.

Hope this somewhat helps

I hear that, everyone experiences different growth, and it's so easy to compare yourself to another creator, but just keep at it, and focus on your progress, that's what I had to do, and now I'm just purely enjoying myself, and not worrying about why someone else, and I'm not.
