Might Be Quitting.

You should hope that people enjoy your content enough to earn a like, earn a subscriber, and earn a view. You should not, however, join YouTube with the sole purpose of obtaining frivolous numbers and statistics without truly having a passion for video making and wanting to share what you have with the world. They are entirely different.

are you 4.120.000th moron who thinks he has something useful to add to the YT world:p
 
Thanks for all the responses guys, and no I didn't start YouTube to gain fame etc. I was doing it as a passion. I'm leaving the YouTube world for a while, will stay active on this forum though, and wanna think deeply on what I really wanna do.

Danke,

Liam.

I highly doubt YouTube is going anywhere anytime soon, so when and if you decide to come back, it will be right here waiting for you :D

No lol. It has to start with a desire to express something, share something, you should be youtubing because you felt you had something to offer. If you're youtubing because you thought " well these people get money/fame/fans and I want that!" But you didn't actually have a talent or a message or something you thought would be fun to share, then you're expecting youtube to make you feel better about yourself. This is just going to disappoint you and clog up youtube in the end. You should be doing it because you legitimately felt you had something to add to youtube/express. you know, subs or no subs you just felt like know one had presented your special view point, or your special type of comedy, or your take on this or that, or you and your friends just have a special way of interacting you didn't think you'd seen on youtube. It should never be "Man all these people get so much attention through youtube, I want some of that![DOUBLEPOST=1372507141,1372506336][/DOUBLEPOST]

Just re-evaluate and find something to do that you feel really good about. You've got to feel good about your content all on your own. Like even if it gets no views you're just like "well anyone who DOES stumble upon this video, this is how I want them to see me" Get to that place where you're just happy to share. And of COURSE lack of views/attention is gonna get you down, it gets us all down at times. But make sure that your satisfaction with your content is at a level that it can handle that kind of low response, so you're just happy you put it out to know that you did it and to feel happy that it's out there for future people to stumble upon :)

Guys,

I might be quitting YouTube..... Unless you can convince me to stay. Or I might just start another channel. Just currently happy with how my channel is going, and not wanting to upload because I really don't think this is the type of channel I want.
What should I do?

Danke,

Liam.

If you get joy from YouTube don't quit- if you're not having fun any more take a break and come back to it :)

If you're not happy with the type of channel, you could just change the videos you upload and then it will be the type of channel you want.

Bottom line- do whatever will make you happiest. Nothing's set in stone- you can always change your mind.
