Why are you switching? I know close to nothing about both of these companies. Feel free to go into detail.
Because my dream is going into The Game Station. I want to work with people who actually like working on creating the videos, creating a show, discussing about games. TGS is the only place I saw youtubers do that. I'm sick of "look how scared I am" videos & let's plays. People who just hit the record button and talk about s**t.
So I'm changing now because I don't want another year on my contract. I might try Union for Gamers first because they don't have a lockup and after some time join TGS directly (if possible of course).
Joining RPM means that I can join TGS directly since they are under the same network. I simply don't want to be locked up another year on another network.
For other reasons, I don't really see an advantage. On Creator X forum is spam. Only people whining about "Why arn't our videos promoted?" BECAUSE THEY ARE s**t THAT"S WHY. People only complain, they don't think. They don't look at themselfs trying to improve their skills. Other than that, Creator X has the Gorilla thing where they have a high CPM if you do something... which makes you look for a sellout + if you don't have any viewers there is no point on doing anyway.
Support was fast answering (max 1 day). I personally got a manager... tried to contact him to ask him some questions. Actually trying to involve myself by asking questions and not wait for magically stuff to happen... I have been told that I have been doing a very good job in comparations to others and then I got some really general suggestions. Payment has always been on time. They have a new dashboard that looks ok.
Anyway, I have 2 channels. One will remain there... my main channel will be moved because as I have said I aim high and I don't want to be locked.
