Mini_ghost420 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I was watching a youtube video and an add came up. only it wasn't an add. it was just another video. it was a video of someone playing GTA 5 going around in a racoon mask beating up other players for an hour! what the fuck?? it's an hour long. I don't even know what they're are advertising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molarbear Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I've never had that happen. Tonight when I signed in they wanted my google email or my phone number for some reason, I just closed it and opened it back up and was able to sign in like normal.

Mini_ghost420 Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 and I don't know what the guy in the Racoon mask is doing either. the way he's playing doesn't make sense. like someone stole his car and kicked him out of it then came back and ran him over. then after he respawns he sees the same guy in his car. he gets in it and goes riding around with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenigundam Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Remember the 2005-06 era of YouTube? That was like the Wild Wild West!! No ads, no ten minute limit, it was so unregulated and cool back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini_ghost420 Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 yeah, I remember that. but this isn't even and add. it's literally just another video where the adds go. and the way the guy is playing is erratic as shit. I have no idea whats going on anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueraven1999 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 but I don't like ad blocker cuz it makes Youtubers not get money That's why I stopped using Ad blocker on Youtube too. I haven't seen that ad, but I have seen other Youtube channel ads. Mostly one with little kids. I just hit the back button or Youtube to go back to the main page and click on the video I'm watching again. I don't mind the ads as long as they're under a minute. The only one that I'll watch that is over a minute is the one with Big Foot's family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini_ghost420 Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 if they go on too long I just say "Skip ad" but this ad was more interesting than the video I was watching. I could make no sense of the dude's gameplay. he made no sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised I haven't seen it yet. I get a lot of Leinenkugel and car ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilosipherStoned Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Weird I havent had anything like that happen, but I'll tell you what has been pissin' off. The youtube 'bots' de-monitizing videos on channels just because the titles contain programmed flagged words or whatevah. I'm not a youtuber, but I've been contemplating starting a youtube channel for awhile, and I don't have cable. I pay too much for my high speed internet, so youtube, and streamed episodes of my favorite shows are all the tv I watch.. Seeing channels as big as Phillip De Franco's, Zombie Go Boom, and probably other channels with great content that try to push the envelope all uploading videos about this shit trying to ruin them.. not helping me take that leap at all youtube.
