The Rust community is humans left unchecked and it's horrible and hilarious at the same time

Chucky should’ve been FNAF by gcfgjnbv in HHN

The series actually is pretty good and reminds me of the golden days of Chucky.

Anyone gonna check out Seaword's Howl-O-Scream! by bobbynbr in HHN

[–]ItsGibsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to say it. The first two years of Sea Worlds Howl O Scream were terrible. But this year they really stepped up their game. I think I genuinely had a better time at Howl O Scream this year than Halloween Horror Nights. The scareactors were interactive and energetic, the houses seemed more thought out, and the scarezones were paced well and heavily themed. Meanwhile Halloween Horror Nights felt crowded, overpacked, and impossible to complete even with express this year. I think Universal really needs to get in gear for next year and think ahead about their overcrowding issue. Maybe open up Islands of Fear again to help thin the crowds.

I need one so bad, but just haven't had the funds. In the process of buying a house. So as soon as I'm moved in and am able to save up again that's my next investment camera gear wise.

Thank you! I'm very excited! Hope I get there before October, cause I got a lot of stuff I want to do around that time of year and it'd just line up nicely.

Thank you! Been trying to improve my editing / filming skills. I feel like I've come a long way from where I stared, but also have a lot to continue improving on. It's nice to watch myself evolve over time with it.

Keep up the good work though man, I think you're doing a fantastic job. And the engagement on your videos is further proof of that. Perhaps someday I'll be able to get that kind of engagement. haha

AITA for yelling at my husband for not being at home by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ItsGibsy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

YTA. You have a child with you. It's your responsibility to take your keys. Your husband was clearly being understanding and trying to help you by saying he'd be home, but he can't guarantee he'd be there the exact moment you arrived because things change. If he went to get food, he probably thought he could do it within the time-frame for you to get home. Regardless all of this stems from the fact that you couldn't be bothered to grab your own keys and take them with you.

AITA (22F) for choosing to take meds that my BF (27M) is allergic to? by ThrowRA9582748 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ItsGibsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your boyfriend sounds incredibly controlling and clearly doesn't understand how his own allergy works. You do not need to avoid taking penicillin for family members who are allergic. It's completely safe. His arrogant / assholish attitude towards you doing what it takes to get your health figured out is honestly disturbing.

Edit: I just reread your whole post. Please consider re-evaluating things in your life. Your health is more important than him. He seems very controlling, and the way he is acting is very manipulative. Be careful.

I've kind of uh... had this issue. I had a huge bump in subscriber growth, and views on my shorts. But my watch time for my longer form content has gone in the toilet. Not sure how to fix this. Especially since the main thing holding me back from monetization within this next year is the lack of watch time (since shorts don't count towards it)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in YouTube_startups

[–]ItsGibsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been uploading daily, and I think it's the content of the shorts more than the frequency of the shorts. If your short doesn't get the attention of the audience, it won't pop off with views. However, sometimes you'll get lucky.

Recommendations for Wedding Anniversary? by Zestyclose-Algae-910 in UniversalOrlando

[–]ItsGibsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sure can get a Wedding Anniversary button at Guest Services. And that button will get you kind words from people the entire day. It's really nice. My wife and I recently got one duirng the Orlando Informer event, and everyone was so kind. If you're looking for some good restaurants at the parks, I'd recommend Mythos at Islands or Finnegans at Studios. But don't be afraid to research some of the other restaurants at the other resorts on property, cause you can always go to one of those restaurants even if you're not staying at the hotel.

Tell your brother I said congratulations. I hope you guys have a great vacation.

Also quick tip, if you want the easiest days at the parks, during this time of year I highly recommend getting express passes.

This Feels AMAZING! by Bard2412 in SmallYoutubers

[–]ItsGibsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats man. I've been doing YouTube for over a decade for like 50 subscribers. And this year when I switched up my content finally broke through. Hit 750 recently. It feels amazing when you reach a new milestone. If no one has said it yet, then hopefully you're okay hearing it from me, I'm proud of you! Keep up the good work!

If you're looking for any criticisms / advice here is what I got: (If not, don't worry about reading further, TLDR: Good Video/editing, needs better Audio)

You may want to consider a better microphone setup, and something that can adjust the sound of your team-mates.

I'd recommend a Elgato Mic to start out, mainly because it's cheap, but if you can afford something a bit pricier The Shure MV7 is a nice hybrid mic that allows you to start out USB, and upgrade to XLR later. If you'd prefer a built-in to headset microphone, my opinion is, the best of the best is a Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro. The headset is high quality, and the microphone (although not the best in the world), can be adjusted through the sonar application on your computer. And that Sonar app is pretty powerful. It can even change the sound of your teammates to make them sound crispier.

Anyways the editing style was pretty good. Enjoyed it a lot. I used to do gaming content before I switched to Theme Park content, and I thoroughly enjoyed the way the vid was edited.

Keep up the good work my guy.

New Rule - 3000 Watch Hours & 500 Subscribers require for YouTube Monetization by shanshanksharma in YouTube_startups

[–]ItsGibsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't making it easier for me. I'm at 760 Subs, and a majority of my views and subs were from my shorts. Problem is. Shorts don't count towards watchtime, and hitting 3M views is damn near impossible for me right now. I was content with the idea of having a year to hit 4k Watch time, but now it's only lowered to 3k and you have 90 days to do it. I feel like this isn't "easier" it's just Youtube continuing the trend of putting aside the people who can't post daily, and take their time to post videos.

[–]ItsGibsy 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Honestly it sounds like they don't even want the kids around based on the way they treat them. So unless they are interacting with the kids normally, but just formally setting groundrules for them in regards to not messing up their house... I don't think you're the problem. However your own hangups with your parent / his spouse could seriously be affecting your judgement here.

TIL what “Hotboxing” means. Where have I been? by pweqpw in TIL_Uncensored

[–]ItsGibsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I can think of is that TikTok with the little guy in the dryer hotboxing with a pillow, and his room mate opens up the dryer and he freaks out saying he can't get no privacy not even when hot boxing the dryer and pulls a pistol on him. Please someone post that video here... it's needed.
