/////// Video Description \\\\\\\
So, I know I said I wasn't doing anymore videos till the first of the year but...I had an idea and decided I had to do a couple more before my Christmas Break, ya know...on top of the YEAR long break I've already been on lol!
Anyways, so short version is that, in light of all the COPPA changes coming at the first of 2020, I decided to make a new website as well as a new Discord server! This is basically to replace the comments, community, and other tabs I have been using to communicate with all of you, given that they'll be going away when I mark my channel as Child Friendly at the 1st of the year. I'm deciding to do this NOW, because my videos are still being shared (I hope) by YouTube which they won't be recommending (or EVEN NOTIFYING!) you about after Jan 1 2020. So I wanted to get the word out now.
Along that same line of thought, I've decided that as of Jan. 1st, 2020, I'll be shifting over to Patreon pretty much exclusively. What I mean by that is, that 99.999% of my videos will be unlisted on YouTube and I'll be reposting private links to them via my patreon page for anyone with a $1 pledge or higher. This is basically to try to combat the loss of the (already pitiful) ad revenue that will be getting reduced by close to 70% once the changes in 2020 happen.
I sincerely hope any of you who are unable to support me in the next year are not upset by this but I felt that the FTC and YouTube (mainly YT) really left me no other choice. As a content creator I need to be able to support myself and the ad revenue was already failing at that, now even more so. And while I do LOVE to make content for all of you, unfortunately, I do have to think from a business stand point from time to time. I hope you all will be able to support this channel and keep it going, and if not, I hope you at least understand where I'm coming from. Either way...2020's going to be interesting. :P
