[QUOTE="TekkamanChronos, post: 9801576, member: 330285"] Okay this is mostly because of some.dramam inside of a discord, but if left me thinking. Do YouTubers deserve to be paid, to read guides and repost tools. Let me give some background on this situation, So I was in a youtubers discord for help with tinfoil, the video said do xyz and it should work, it didn't. Someone in the group another member have me help, and friendship, and quickly fixed the issue, boom we're baking potatoes.(Cooking with foils) Everything is going fine and the dude is spamming @everyones like crazy, it's getting annoying, and then one of the posts comes up that Nintendo gave him the hammer and his whole channel got terminated. Now me being a long time pirate on yt, I give him advice, the thinline between fair use education and piracy is payment. He's constantly asking people for money, saying support my pateron, and even on his come back video he cried about it making like a dollar or so in generated ads. Which crosses the line, because once you make money off exploring something it loses that education status and go into theft. I mentioned this in the channel and it started a debate with another user, who said that asking people to pay $5 a month is reasonable, and if all the members in the group paid $5 then the owner of the channel could pay all the admins of the group to be here and give support. Dunno why but that kinda struck a cord, maybe it's a generation thing, but I don't see why they think this dude should be paid for reading the data/passing along the tools found here and expecting to get paid? You have a thriving community for this sort of thing, this board is an example of that where people come.and put together not just guides for free but the tools to make things work. Sure you can donate, but they never demand you pay a fee for anything. Which brings me to my thoughts, is it really fair for YouTubers like this guy to try to profit off the hard work that people post for free? What's the general thought/feelings on that or am I just old with old ideals on the subject? [/QUOTE]

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
