Been Having Doubts

Been having a lot of doubts with ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and its not the podcasts I am doubting, I know, just the team behind me is kind of breaking up as it is now down to just Justin and I which is fine, but it is hurting me in the long process. I hope with these podcasts I will be able to find a co host maybe one of these days or live feeder to help with live feeds on Big Brother to give whats going on the BB Feeds so I wanna work on that too and maybe add bloggers as well and grow the website in a big way and get the viewership up! These are goals, but with me doubting the website it is kind of hard to move on with these goals but I gotta keep on pushing especially if I wanna add adsense to the website to earn some revenue within my website, I did way back from The Video Projects Team days which is a long time ago now since that happened. But I will try and continue with Justin aka Justina and try and get things back on track. Losing YouTube has been a big impact on me and I haven't been sleeping well the last while except for last night I finally was tired enough to sleep. I may have had 4 hours of sleep but I'll be fine and later sleeping better knowing I am fixing the website and the problems around with the site.

I shouldn't doubt I should believe in myself and believe in Justin and the words of wisdom he has given me in the last many weeks of my struggles with all the B.S. happening with my team and with me starting to not believe in my team but I got still believe because if I don't then my website will back downhill and it will be over for chrisbontheweb.com and no way of rebuilding it. Yes Larry, Sarah and Eric who's the big name screwed me over but I gotta remember Justin hasn't yet and I don't think he will quit.


Have a great day everyone! 


Chris


P.S. Yes I am like Doubting Thomas in the bible after the Resurrection of Christ.

Do I Miss YouTube?

It has now been almost been 3 months since my departure from YouTube long before their "Term of Service" changes. Only reason I did leave was because of the crap I was enduring with my team and the way my team turned their back on me and leaving me to do everything on my own, so to the question in the title of this blog "Do I Miss YouTube?" the answer is "NO" I do not miss the drama from my team and having to deal with quitters quitting on me in the middle of a web series that was doing so well as it was returning back to the normal amount of views it use to get so everything was going great up to the start of Season 6 when I started to feel fed up of the series but I didn't let it bother me and I continued with the season but when Season 6 ended that is when "All hell broke loose"  Once Larry quit, then Eric not once but twice, that was enough for me to go over the edge and when I fired a staff member, I knew that was the end of my YouTube Career and I do not miss all the drama or the drama on YouTube. The community has become with hateful people and also the "drama channels" out there, but it sounds like as being an outsider looking in that things are getting better. However the changes of you cannot swear in a video if you Monetize your videos so I left at a good time and 10 + years on the platform and in the industry is a very, very long time and like the saying goes, "time to move on" or "life goes on." In the long run now I am very, very happy I have moved on and recording Reality TV Podcasts, which is brought from YouTube and continued. Also the blogging and hopefully by November Twitch Stream in the near future as well. 


Until the next blog, have a great evening everyone,

Rant About YouTube...

After 10 + Years on the YouTube with me leaving the platform after the recent changes to their Terms of Service of You cannot swear if you wanna earn money for your videos along with other things which limits me to what I wanted to do for the documentary so instead in the next few days you will see Interview 1 of 3 so you will have more website content then there has been. With podcasts I can say what I want without restrictions like "YouTube" has at this current time. And what I think is a lot of YouTubers will slowly be leaving the platform as the freedom of speech will really hurt them. I know McJuggernuggets, KidBehindACamera & Boogie2988 whom I am an avid listener of and love to watch their videos on a regular basis even tho are hurt by this change of the TOS (Terms of Service) especially with the swearing in the videos by two of them. 


But what is also as bad as the swearing is that people like Boogie cannot talk about trending topics out there like he said in one of his most recent videos like suicide and the war going on across seas, those are basically big time topics that should be allowed, as content creators, should be allowed to talk about the big trending topics but that isnt allowed because it isn't "User Friendly"  well it is as long as you talk about it appropriately. So I am glad that I left when I did and I am ready to face the world in new Adventures and life experiences, life is always full of surprises and I am blessed to have this YouTube experience even with 42 subs for the time I was on my own and I am ready to face new challenges and learn something new! 


Have a Great Night,



Chris

New Blog Look! | Added a Second Podcast To The List! | Dropped bannerfans.com

Well it has been a few days since my last ever post and I have had to transfer blogs so the direct link to this blog is a bit different but it wouldn't matter to those who are on chrisbontheweb.com But with this change came a new "Blog Look" and boy I really like the new fresh look from before where I think the dark color was a bit much if you ask me, but it is updated to a lighter color and it brings the site right out when you are reading this blog so it a positive thing. As you can also see Ive updated the graphical end of the website, meaning the banner the front page image rotation which hasn't been changed as I need to work on graphics for the front end, Twitch and the podcasts I do. As you can tell it isn't bannerfans I use no more I do my own graphics from paint.net a program recommended by a streaming site owner I had a argument with since 2014.... LOL! But in all positivity I am glad he recommended it as it has been an amazing program and I am using it to the full potential my creativity is bigger then it has been and I got full control over my graphical end of the site and stream as well and of course the podcasts.

Now you are wondering what is with the Ive added a second podcast?! WTF is that Chris? Well I have been talking to a few people and we are working on a podcast called CBOTW Gamers Podcast talking about gaming once a month! Myself and 1o1Adam which you can follow him on Twitter is going to be joining me once a month with guests and you will never know who will be coming on the podcast each week. We will be taking it slow at first to see how you guys like this and if you guys enjoy it then we will continue on a month basis, I sure it will be loved by you guys as the second podcast within chrisbontheweb.com! 

Until the next blog, have a great Sunday tomorrow!

Justice System & Goverment In Canada

I have been a Canadian all my life and I have noticed that our justice system in Canada isn't overly the greatest.... Someone gets murdered they are out in 10 - 15 years... If we actually voted in our Judges it wouldn't be as messed up as it has been recently. Seems anyone who actually gets put into jail for major crime is out... I know Paul Bernardo is still in prison for his crime but his partner she's out, so as you can see our justice system isn't greatest but can be effective at certain times... Again we should vote in our Judges this way there wouldn't be this in effectiveness in the Justice system here in Canada. That is my little spit on the justice in Canada, I know it isn't much but its my thoughts about the situation in our system here.

Now goverment wise, I am not happy one bit! Yes not one bit! One our Prime Minister wants to legalize marijuana, 2 I am sure our taxes are going to go up... Ontario the Premier she wanted to cut out or cut down my disability pension which I wasn't happy with... Now she is giving me more money?! Like what the heck?! I am not one bit happy with her because she cannot make up her mind what she wants to do. One thing that is good is family's with low income family's will get more money which is good... I shouldn't complain about getting more money... LOL I should be entirely happy about this! 


Have a great night guys,

Staff Been Updated

I haven't posted in a while as I have been busy with rebuilding the entire YouTube channel and figuring out things for the plans and dealing with a entire hacked channel which was deleted and unrecoverable at the time but I am working hard at it and almost near completed already! 

Anyways, I have removed Staff that aren't being active and we will not be coding a new chat at all the person who was suppose to do that cut off communication with me so they were let go and life goes on. I got discord if the fans wanna connect with me outside Twitch, YouTube and Twitter! I have also added 1o1Adam to help me maintain the bot and my gaming channel on Twitch.tv. Also re hired Sarah to help with the set stuff as Justin lives 45 minutes from me and it would be hard for him to be down here all the time... So she will be picking up his slack a bit more and he will maybe lead the set stuff and he will be involved with the bigger projects along with Sarah it will be quite the dream team.


I am very happy to have these 3 involved and excited for the future projects I have instored for the channel and rebuilding my CBOTW Community and also maintaining and having fun in the same way.

Till Next Time,


Chris

Website Down & Updates!

Well after few months of having site issues, I got confirmation that the nameservers wasnt pointed to the domain, so that was the entire issue, not 000webhost, so I am setting things up again and will get them to point to the right server again and site should be back online by Wednesday. Will work on the site in the back end today and tomorrow. 

Anyways I have been busy with site issues lately, family some personal issue, also had 2 days of training for First Aid/CPR so life is gotten in the way of my Online life but I ensure you I am back online now and trying to fix all the screw ups I have made with the website! Plus the BB18 Recap Podcast and the Amazing Race Canada Preview Podcast! So I got a bit of work ahead of me. Now I made a decision to keep the Podcast Pre-Recorded for now and yes I got another YouTube Channel but no content it is mainly used to comment on videos and what not... I am still active within the community but just as a viewer. My views on YouTube haven't changed and I am still doing Audio Podcasts and eventually sometime this week I will be back to Twitch fully for streams which I am actually excited about as I love to still do gaming streams. With the help of @1o1Adam on Twitter an old Stickam.com friend, he has been helping me technically with everything! So thank you Adam! Anyways today is about to begin for me, have a great day, be safe, do not work too hard if you work and I will talk to you guys soon!

Changes and Twitter

Now first of all I havent posted up a blog in quite sometime as a lot has happened. First Twitter: Got into an arguement on Twitter and the next thing I know they are disliking my videos for no apparent reason so I decided thats it if people are going to be hateful I do not want anything to do with YouTube. Been dragged on long enough to the hate so I am now mainly focusing on Podcasting within chrisbontheweb.com and I will be adding Live Broadcasts via Ustream in the near future. Noticed in the last few days several people are unfollowing and refollowing so I will not tolerate that and just will not be following them anymore, simple as that.

Now today is Day 1 of 2 days of First Aid CPR training and I am very very excited but nervous in the same way but I am learning something new in the same way so it will be be fun. If I do not talk to you guys by end of the week I will write another blog by Saturday.

Miss Broadcasting....

I sure as hell miss broadcasting and haven't casted in over a year since me being banned at JustcastLive.TV. Just lost interest and plus banned on Vaughnlive, IVlog and YouLiveNow, I got nowhere to go at this point of time. Except Hangouts which I do not wanna go live much due to the fact it goes over to my YouTube channel so I am not live as much as I wanna be with my spare time... Facebook Live has sprung up so maybe a few smaller casts via my cell here and there but other then that its only me recording on Hangouts when scheduled. Right now I am on the Off Peak Season and awaiting for the next season. So I am extremely bored. 

Now all of you guys are going to ask me what about gaming? Hitbox? Twitch? Stream.me? Beam.pro? Well Twitch I got Strike 3 with them, so I am now banned from the site, well my account but I will not be making a new account and a few people I do not like and were extremely rude. Stream.me, well according to a few on Twitter a lot of drama and thats not what I am about, I am about having fun. Beam.pro, I was hacked again and again, so I have given up on them. Finally hitbox, I am having troubled staying on air no matter how I change the resolution, bitrate, frame rate it will knock me off the air so Hitbox is pretty well shitbox... 

I'd like to cast again but like I said I am banned from pretty well every site, I do not like UStream/LiveStream at all, Ustream's chat sucks and a banned user doesn't stay banned which sucks! It is only 24 hours. Livestream you gotta apply which is for free for more viewers but been denied it many many times and to get listed which is utter crap!

Was The Entertainment Man Talk Show A Quit?

Obviously I am writing this on the train heading home from my day trip in Toronto. Now you all are wondering after the struggle in the last year and a half with the series, was it a quit? Well yes... I had no other choice to end it or in your view as a reader of the blog, it was a quit. Now reason behind it was the struggle with the staff drama it just drove me absolutely nuts. Once Larry quit I did have an alternate plan which was Eric until he quit on me officially over me having odd feelings and concerns. Then the icing on the cake was Sarah getting fired a day or so after hiring her on as staff of my website. So the answer to the series ending abruptly is yes it was a quit and I have no regrets whatsoever at all of it ending and with me walking away. Made the final decision for me and me only.

1000 Blog Views! and Climbing!

First I ever thought, this blog wouldn't get any views at all.... But nooo over the course of having this blog December 26th, 2015 of last year which isn't that long ago pretty much almost 6 months to be exact I have reached 1053 views, maybe more then I thought. But I am very very proud of how hard I worked on the website, the blog and YouTube all in one shot... I don't blog daily but sometimes a few times a week, but hope to start blogging more as Everything About Reality TV is closing down for 2 weeks before the summer season starts up. But anyways I am not one to give up on what I believe with this website.... I may of lost Eric, Sarah and Larry but Larry has given me insight on what I should do with the channel and that I should focus on Everything About Reality TV more and I am just going to do that... In between obviously working on The Entertainment Man Talk Show Finale I am busy as ever can be... 

One thing I remember I got very little in views at the start, but climbed to double digits as I went on... The most I think I had once was the blog post entitled Done With Ex Girlfriends....  My blog is for daily rants, or thoughts of the day and I want to do more with this blog and going to make 10 - 15 minutes of my time and blog more cause I wanna write what I am feeling and it seems to help me bring out my thoughts and ideas as well!


Again Thank you to you all for the love and support over the last while, I am greatly appreciative of all your support over this long span of time.

Still Sick!

Still sick as ever can be with the coughing, but coughing is getting better which means the cough syrup is slowly working but I gotta remember to take it daily or twice a day, which I haven't been doing much lately. I didn't take it this morning and plan on taking it tonight before and if I end up in bed... My sleep is so screwed up but it will take time for me to sleep normal again! If it isn't tonight, it will be tomorrow that I definitely, as I wont be able to sleep in the morning so I will be staying awake all morning and all day then I shall be ready for sleep that night! All will be good again! I hope... It's cause of the coughing crap that's causing lack of sleep... I am tired so I might lay down for a while.

Anyways, I have been screwing around with my website, and the line that was put in originally has been a troublesome for me and doubling up out of nowhere so I made my own line with paint.net program and put it into the site and made it appear on all pages but once, so I hope that gets rid of the glitch if it isn't that, then its the editor giving issues. But I think this issue has been resolved and I moved a majority of the coding out of the way to check for extras of the line and none anywhere. Changed the account password in case of the account got tampered or hacked into. I am taking all per cautions of my account and website, but I doubt it, it would show me the IP it last was logged into, and not seen any changes made.

Finally I probably will vlog but take very little video of me talking tomorrow as I am going to try and rest my voice this weekend. I am going to limit to how much I talk. Sorry guys I need my voice for the rest of the recaps this week.

Talk to you this weekend hopefully.
