YouTubing and stuff

Yeah, I do have my own YouTube channel, nothing special really... Just another dude trying to achieve something by posting videos of himself playing various video games on his poopy PC.
Why is gaming the most popular branch on YouTube? As much as I like gaming and being a gamer, every goddamn day I see gamers battle each other with true fanboyism, hate and armpit sweat... I'm serious.
When I was about 10 years old (6 years ago) I discovered what YouTube really is. Back then, it was way more complexed, but it was still awesome. The rating system was based on stars, comments were different and better, people had usernames instead of their real names. Today, YouTube has a design that originates far back from 2010. It may not be the same as today, but it was a template for what we have today. Remember that before 2010, YouTube wasn't as customizable. You could only change your profile photo, cover photos were non-existent.
Over the past few years, with PewDiePie reaching YouTube's most subscribed channel and VEVO getting more glory, we can say that this is the Golden Era of video media...
Remember the times when there were no ignorant kids that needed attention? When you could play Minecraft without a bunch of them advertising their shitty-ass channel on a Minecraft server you play on... I certainly do, believe me.
The thing is, those kids weren't even born when YouTube was started (ok, most of them were, but they should show a bit more generocity and respect towards other players). They keep calling themselves gamers, but they only play Minecraft on a laptop that they begged for with all their strenght. It's easy living that life these days, just living-off others and giving two fucks. The amount of Minecraft-Only-YouTubers is hugeee! Half or even more than that of the entire gaming population on YouTube are Minecrafters!
This is why I don't like Minecraft YouTubers (shout out to Sky, he actually did an awesome job, even though he plays Minecraft most of the time). Most of them just like to advertise their channels and to draw attention to themselves. In reality, they just gain the opposite.
Some kid who is 11 or 12 started disrespecting me for telling him to stop advertising and spamming his YouTube channel URL on the HiveMC server. The kid's YouTube username was MaxTheUploader... Buuut i think his channel got deleted because he probably got into some copyright trouble (LOL!).
Sooo, yeah, that was my opinion on that stuff... Laters!
