It's because making a channel is very costly if you wan't to do it properly, plus getting noticed is harder and the new layout is just awful. I have time, but not money and I'm also sick of youtube pushing us around. :'( I'm sick of it, barely anyone will be the next iJustine or Shane Dawson so I might as well just give up. Any advice?

First tell ask yourself "why do I make videos?" Is it for the money, getting noticed by people, making people laugh, getting the most views/subs, or do you just like making videos? What do you define as properly anyways? I have always enjoyed making videos and taking pictures, so I feel that dropping a bunch of money on my GoPro was totally worth it. Now I can film the crazy and not so crazy s**t I do, and whether it's for me to watch or for other people to watch, I will post it regardless. If people like it, they do, if they don't, then at least I can still watch it and show it to people I know. I also like to make people laugh and share any creativity I have to get the reactions out of people. Getting any money from Youtube is an extra for me (which is sort of an incentive sometimes), but honestly I would post just as many videos without monetization.
 
I don't think you should give up and delete your account. I'd keep trying if I were you. A lot of those channels out there that have millions of viewers and subscribers I'm sure thought they were never going to make it big, but look what happened :P.
 
Too many people try to quit. They're already hurt, already in pain. Get a reward from it. A lot of the time people look for reasons to give up because its easier and not for reasons to continue.
 
I must agree with my fellow YTtalkers here! Never say die! :rolleyes: You never know..that next video you produce may just go viral! Hang in there and keep your nose to the grindstone! You cannot harvest the crop without planting the seeds!
 
Sometimes you don't have to push to become big. Just love what you do. You also don't have to spend a lot of money to be on youtube. I spend nothing on anything but I'm doing better than I expected. Who says you can't be huge? The big Youtubers you see today did not know that they were going to be huge and they didn't give up either so hang in there. :)
