Also the Beytubers need to step their Editing game up. Show scores and stats on screen guys, and make sure your lighting/audio is good. Louder doesnt equal better.
The reality is that most of our viewers don't really care if a video is edited or not, and we end up getting the same number of views. So at the end of the day it's not worth our time to put in the extra work. (Though I'll admit, there was more editing back then)
Anyway, I'm going to go ahead and put myself out there to vent about a few things from a Beytuber's perspective. These are in no order of importance, but rather the most common things that trigger us Beytubers as a whole. (Based on conversations I've had with other Beytubers)
1. "It's Genesis Valtryek, not God Valkyrie"
Enough said.
2. "______ already did this first"
While I get that its important to give credit to other fellow Beytubers, I can't help but get annoyed when even the slightest similarities in our video ideas ends up in an accusation of copying. The unwanted hate and comments that result from this is the worst. (We now try to be wary of video ideas that may be similar, and try to take measures to prevent instances where our videos would end up being uploaded on the same day)
3. "Can I have a free beyblade? Here is my address:"
If it wasn't already bad enough to ask for free stuff, giving your personal details on the internet is just a huge concern when we have a lot of viewer traffic who can easily read the comments. It's not like we don't have giveaways either, so there should be no reason to beg.
4. "First, second, and third" comments.
They're absolutely unnecessary, and that is why some of us have already placed filters to flag any comments that contain these specific words so we don't have to even see them.
5. "Burst sucks, mfb is better" comments.
These were rampant at the beginning of burst, but they seem to have gone down after burst was released worldwide. You can't really compare the two generations because they're not meant to battle each other anyway.
6. L-Drago/Ryuga fanboys
These were also common at the beginning when burst was released, but they're still around somewhere.
7. "Burst battles are too short"
Oh please, we don't want to sit through 10 minutes of ____B:D VS ____B:D
8. Hate comments
Not even good hate comments, but just flat out nasty things being said. I'm not trying to play victim here but I get a lot of it so that's why I'm putting it in the list.
9. Spam comments
Just spamming the same comment multiple times to get our attention. (Though most of them end up being flagged by YouTube's automated system so we don't end up seeing them)
10. "When will you get _______(new beyblade)?" "Why haven't you gotten ______?"
Look, it already costs a lot to import new releases every month. It doesn't help that there is no secure way to get new releases so were constantly scrambling to get the newest thing in a timely manner. It seems that these days we have to be at the top of our game with releases to even stay relevant.
And finally....
11. Claiming news as their own, and being rude and disrespectful to their viewers and other Beytubers.
Not going to give any names (for the sake of preventing drama), but this channel knows who they are. I get that some people try to run their channel as a business, but when you're hurting the community and having most Beytubers turn on you it's time to start rethinking your way of running your channel, or representing yourself for that matter.
