Yes a great topic to have out in the open. i go back and forth. I've said it many times and i guess i lean most heavily in the direction of 'Dtube/Steemit dont owe me shit' i owe me. I owe myself to put out my best content for my own fulfillment.
but while i say that in one breath...the next... i have felt the frustration. watching a vid with 150$ upvote and being like...that wasnt so good. looking at the persons posts and seeing they are getting upvotes across the board and its all fine...but meh.
It just kinda feels too Auto. like a past name had a great vid and so whenever there name posts....uppvoterooo for you..i dont even need to watch it. it might not be the case that vidoes are being upvoted without even being watched. maybe everyone is being meticulously watched...but that isnt how it always feels.
my wah wah is that i have been posting on Dtube pretty consistently for over a month. i have yet to receive an upvote. I dont claim to have mind blowing content, or sick editing skills. but i do claim to be constantly improving. if you look at some of my early vids, bad lighting, shitty cuts, strange sound, poor angle choices.....i put out some real stinkers while in the learning process.
I dont regret a single one of them...but i sometimes wonder if maybe one of those stinkers got seen early on and because of that, when my name pops up...it easy to just skip over.
who knows. who cares really. Not getting upvoted will not stop me from continuing to put out my comedy sketches and vlogs. continuing to learn new tricks and keep improving my content. at the end of the day...im doing this for me and not upvotes.
Haha @dlife...that bomber jacket outfit is hillarious. with the dtube thug gangsta look combined with the tom cruise Top Gun sunglasses in a bomber look....you be Top Thug up in the Dnews house!!!
All I know is that right now - I want me some BUTT COINS! When's the ICO?!
:D
One thing I am super happy about is I found your channel. So make sure you let me know every time you launch a new comedy. I definitely think you're going to get on the crosshairs soon enough. Your material is funny man.
Keep on improving. Keep on truckin'
