Thought I would correct you on this one. There is a contract with "no lock in networks". You just are not locked in for a period of time. You still must sign a legally binding contract though.[DOUBLEPOST=1377828684,1377828613][/DOUBLEPOST]

Haha yeah there are some many networks! I've heard a lot of good things about Curse. How about IGN isn't it invite only?[DOUBLEPOST=1377828546,1377828481][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yes. IGN is invite only, and they are actually not even inviting new partners right now. They got to big, and they don't have an adequate support team. All their partners are like 50k+ subs.

Yeah, I heard they have some pretty bad support, but I'm not really an expert on them. Most of what I know about networks comes from discussing it with others and a little bit of research.

Yeah I would like a network that has a great community and support to help your channel grow! With spotlights on the main channel and stuff!

There are 3 types of contracts as far as lock ins.
1st: A basic contract. They lock you in for a period of time, usually 1-2 years
2nd: A "trial contract" you are given a 3 month period of time with no lock in. Then you are locked in for 1-2 years
3rd: A "No Lock in" You are bound by a perpetual agreement that can be ended whenever. The contract is just to state the payment details, liabilities, responsibilities, etc. You can read an example of one of these here:

This is the Curse/UnionForGamers sample contract from their website.

You probably shouldn't go with Fullscreen, then. They seem to have a terrible community from what I've heard and seen. One of my friends tell me that TGN is good for helping a channel grow, and that you can send your videos into their main channel. Not entirely sure how true it is, but it's what I heard. They also have this thing called Catalyst which is apparently some sort of tool to help get your videos out there more, which is probably what my friend meant by helping your channel grow.

Yeah I've heard TGN is good I believe they have a 80/20 split with a 2 year contract!
 
Fullscreen is very good I got into a contract way to early though :( that was my only problem with Fullscreen

For the first question, no you cannot unless the network allows you to. That is the point of a contract, assuming it is not a no lock in. For the second part, that is wrong. TGN has a no lock in contract and they claim it is a 100/0 contract. This is kind of a lie. TGN just takes 0 cut of your earnings, but they are still cut by BBTV who then shares with TGN. It is a tricky way of wording things to make it look better than it is. I have heard horrendous things about their CPMs though. They seem to average around $1.5. I have over 4 times that with RPM even in bad months. :)
