The Impending War - Life Update
Added 2024-08-06 08:24:59 +0000 UTCGuys, since the situation in Lebanon is very bad, I'm thinking about filming reactions via livestreams because I really don't know when all hell breaks loose..tension is high and my filming/editing schedule is definitely gonna go rogue
If you're on board with this ideas please let me know and mention your suggestions <3

I've tried recommending songs to react to but it's difficult because of the copyright nonsense but I will keep trying if you think it would help. Just tell me what genre you want to see. I like all sorts of stuff but I still listen mostly to metal. I can only speak for myself on this but I don't seem to enjoy reaction content as much as I used to. I'm glad I was able to discover you during that time but I pretty much only joined your Patreon so I could help out with the adorable kitty cats and hearing how things are with you in Lebanon. Maybe you can show us more about Lebanese culture that you enjoy. I'm curious what kinds of food you like.

2024-08-08 21:30:29 +0000 UTCI know you're not a fan but horror movie or TV show reactions can be very popular., especially people reacting to them that hate horror movies. There are lots of really good ones that bring in lots of views for people so maybe worth thinking about?. You could put a very heavily edited version on YT and put the full length reaction here to bring on new members. Of course they'll have to have their own copy of the movie to sync up with your reaction. As a big horror fan I'm always watching those and I can suggest a few classics to try with and see how it goes if you're interested?. Yeah, I can imagine it's frustrating to put in so much work and get very little back from it. To find that little "it" thing that will bring in money is tough as a lot of people no longer make much on YT due to their overly restrictive rules, so Patreon does seem to be the best place to bring people too. I've been a top tier member of yours since I joined and that won't change as I enjoy and support whatever content you put out. πβ€οΈπΉ

2024-08-08 14:04:35 +0000 UTCThank you Garryβ€οΈ Hopefully things won't escalate..it's kinda hard to continue your life normally when a shit show is about to happen any minute now :) I just worry about the quality of the live reactions and the lagging but last time during game night i felt the quality was pretty decent actually. I'm all for any ideas really xD the less copyright the better I'm trying to embark on new type of content that will actually generate me revenue and my subs will still like to enjoy it but i still can't pinpoint it unfortunately It's really discouraging when all your efforts are not compensated you know? I'm really grateful for my patrons but life is getting harder and relying on patreon alone is not sustainable :/

2024-08-08 14:01:01 +0000 UTCThat's exactly the feeling. Thank you *Hug* You know I feel like I've hit a plateau.. β If you keep doing the same things, you'll end up getting the same resultsβ and I'm feeling that A LOT it's really soul crushing to invest 6 years into something that literally generates u zero revenue Even though I enjoy it, It's unsustainable Ive been trying to find other type of content that my subs would still enjoy but it seems impossible to figure them out It's hard to believe my subs ONLY watch reactions..I wish I'd be able to make other engaging content that actually sustains a living for me through views.. My lifeline is patreon and unfortunately I'm at an all time low Thank you for the pledge upgrade that was really kind of youβ€οΈ

2024-08-06 21:29:52 +0000 UTCGod bless you Rana. I wish I could give you a hug. I'm 38 years old but this is the first time in my life that the world feels like it's starting to come loose at the seems. It's kinda bizzare. Regarding the loss of subscribers, that seems to happen to many content creators at some point. I've heard creators say that it was scary at first but then they were happier afterwards because it left them with a stronger fanbase. I hope you and your mom get better soon. And thank you so much for your work with the cats. You are a soldier. πΊπͺ

2024-08-06 19:40:28 +0000 UTCI hope you post the link to your "buy me a coffee" page, as many of us would like to help you out. I see lots of people just repost their Twitch livestream reactions so I see no problem in you livestreaming your YouTube reactions. Some suggestions: JINJER - Someone's Daughter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djsH7ngox_s NEMOPHILA / G.O.D. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18Ddh0UFVN8 SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL - CONFLICT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cji_T28ybk ARCH ENEMY - Dream Stealer https://youtu.be/cJBmX5aU1DA?si=HEx_hsbWISTH4JrA And one that's a lot more political and might require a content warning (it's about the genocide in Gaza) - Znous - Rameem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51rjRZlA-l8

2024-08-06 14:41:51 +0000 UTCSorry to hear things are getting so rough for you over there Rana. Keeping my fingers crossed that it all doesn't escalate too far and you manage to stay safe. π€β€οΈπΉ The live reaction is a good idea, it was fun the last time you did it even if I did get moaned at for choosing long songs, Lol. Would you consider doing something where we give you songs from genres you'd never normally give a chance to?. You could play the first 60 seconds of a song and see how many we can suggest that make you say "WTF" or just burst out laughing (no sneak peaks first though). A couple of examples could include... Gutalax's Explosive Performance at Bloodstock 2023: Featuring 'Diarrhero' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2tUnZykG2E Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult - Das All-Eine (Live @ Monaclub 12.03.16) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx0skdZDmJI
