We Have To Address This....

                The last week has been so dramatic to be honest. Not just that but disrespect not just Chris but myself as well. It has gotten to a point where we had to start removing things off the website to avoid the extra drama to be honest. What do I mean? Well the chats that were on the site here are now gone and will not be returning anytime soon. More then likely it will never return. Chris is so stressed out with this drama, he's had to take an additional day hence the reason why I am back on the blog. I've told him to take his time with coming back and he's actually switched tomorrow's post 2 or 3 times now with recent news that he has heard about BB22 (Big Brother 22) so he is hoping to discuss that tomorrow. However back to what I said, we the staff of ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com will not tolerate any type of disrespect of drama moving forward. We do not need the Owner taking breaks all the time as there is a ton of work to be done especially with The CBOTW Show that is suppose to be recorded as of this upcoming month so time is ticking and he was up late watching the show and getting notes done for this podcast so he can start typing up notes for the podcast.


                    The point is, we will ban if we have to if the drama is non stop and continues to a point of any of us feel like we've been disrespected or drama we will ban but it is is hard to ban as we do not have that privilege with blogger to ban people from coming on our site but comments will be sent to spam from here on out. We're putting 0 tolerance for any disrespect and drama. I'm sorry but I'm beyond frustrated not just for myself, the team and our Founder & Owner, Chris who had to take more time off from social so he can just focus on the podcasts at hand. Enough is enough. Chris, myself and the rest of the team puts a ton of hours into the website and content you see on a regular basis and we sure as heck do not wanna have to deal with any of this anymore. I'm sorry if I'm coming off a little harsh but I had to address this so you guys know there will be 0 tolerance for disrespect and drama. I will talk to you all Sunday for the weekly updates and let's hope the rest of this week remains calm and cool and no more problem.

Everything About Reality TV, Shows & The YouTube Situation

              So obviously Chris is unavailable today for a post and there is a reason. As I specified on Social Media he's been under an enormous amount of stress but it don't stop him on his goals and aspirations with the website, blogs and podcasts. In this post and he has given me entire permission to go ahead and talk about this. However this hasn't been discussed with the team, Co-Founder/Senior Producer and the other hosts haven't been notified of his plan but he will be posting this up during the daytime today for discussion. 


-  Now we aren't worrying about Big Brother 22 too much but if they somehow decide to not do it then YouTube will be continuing on the back burner but for the most part it sounds like there will be a season but he has something in the planned in case of a worse case scenario situation.

- Now the fall is the next thing and a ton of questions what does this mean for YouTube and he has a few scenarios if Survivor doesn't air this fall and we hope so but there is no news when they are going to start filming the next season at this moment.

- First scenario: Chris has decided if Big Brother 22 is a no go for some odd reason and Survivor is a no go in the fall, then what the plan is for him to remain off YouTube and wait it out till one of the shows that we cover that does air on YouTube that will be the more suitable situation.

- Second scenario: If Big Brother 22 airs this summer as it sounds like it is a most definite go despite the state of the pandemic in the U.S. Then what he will be doing is, in the fall when Amazing Race 32 airs, he will record both Video and Audio ONLY and upload it to YouTube for the time being and there will be no Live stream, just uploaded as we're just starting out on the Video side of things right now.


              There is what is going to be happening and Chris should be back to blogging tomorrow as he's taking it easy right now and that is his plan with the podcast and again he will be working on discussing this with his staff more then less letting them know what the plan is. It took a bit of time to decide what he wanted to do but he's finally made this decision moving forward.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Updates for 06-28-2020

                This is our last update for the month of June as we're heading into the month of July already. So there has been a lot of issues around our community and drama which mind you is unacceptable but I will talk about it in today's post.


Everything About Reality TV-  Only thing we can tell you as we are hiring for Amazing Race and Amazing Race Canada and other show which you can apply by going here:
https://form.jotform.com/201782407842052 Also boss man Chris recorded the Tough As Nails Preview and doesn't feel too confident on it but time will tell if we get listeners for this show. He feels like he's taking a big risk or gamble but that is how he is.

Website- There was so much drama here on the website which mind you is unacceptable. Disrespect towards me or Chris or the rest of the team will not be tolerated whatsoever. We had to ban our first individual which we do not wanna ban too much but rules are rules and inexcusable for not following our terms or guidelines.  We also have decided to permanently remove chats from the website due to drama so there will be no chat on the website from here on out. We're trying to simplify things for not just us but Chris as well.

The CBOTW Show- Only thing I can say is feeds are now active and Chris is working on Wild Force and hopes to finish it next week so he can type up notes and record with Larry.


               Not much in updates this week, just the usual and most updates are about the website itself but right now not much to report back to you guys on with the website at this point really. It has been very quiet recently, especially around CBOTW HQ, I'm sure.  I'm sure if there's updates he will be sure to let us know but for the most part nothing to really say elsewhere on what I said and I will talk to you guys next week.

As of Tomorrow, We Are Moving Blogs To 11 AM EST!

                  As of tomorrow, Sunday, June 28th, 2020, we are officially moving our Blog posts back to 11 am EST as we originally had it when we first started scheduling daily blog posts. I think this is the best decision for us. I know we said that we would be switching back times but we just totally forgotten we announced it and went through with it hence the reason why we are announcing it today so you guys know. As I said Sunday, we are making the blog post released at 11 am EST which is only an hour back of the current schedule for the podcast. Anyways I think this will open a ton of doors for other projects as we are trying to be flexible with scheduling as much as we can and this is one of the reasons why I wanted to actually bring it back an hour. Also I was gonna do this when Entertainment Man Podcast was still on the air back nearly 3 months ago when it abruptly ended so that was the original reason behind it but now I just wanna make sure hosts and projects have the most appropriate scheduling time slot.


                 It will not be me on Sunday's post with the change over of times as that is usually my day off from CBOTW Blog posts most of the time but I start with the new time on Monday and boy I have a couple of gaming related updates to make too and excited to make the updates. Also got a couple of ideas, including when do I wanna start going to events in 2021 which will be a difficult one to write. I think we got more views in the late morning for the blog posts then at the normal 12 pm EST time slot. I promise you guys this change will not change ever again and it will remain as it is moving forward from here on out. I wanna try and stick to the same schedule with things but sometimes we have to make changes that we don't like but it is what it is to be honest. Anyways there is my post for today and I hope you guys are fine with this change of times for the blog and I'm sorry we didn't go with the changes originally but we just totally forgotten about the change over all together. Anyways I am excited for these changes to tjeblog posts moving forward.

Survivor & Big Brother Canada 9 On Hold, Amazing Race Canada To Air Next Year!

                 So much going on and this nightmare is far from over. Yes I am making reference to "Everything About Reality TV Podcast."  Yeah it's not been the greatest year for the podcast and I will get into that on another post on Friday here on the blog. Today I wanna talk about some of the Reality TV Shows I watch and also cover on the podcast. Anyways here is what is going on:


Survivor 41: I know it has been in doubt when they will be bringing back Survivor. I had word they were going to start filming it but now what I heard last it is now on hold which I found out from another fellow podcaster of mine. So I wonder and hope they get time to at least film Survivor 41 for this fall so this doesn't hurt my podcast whatsoever.

Big Brother Canada 9: What I have heard is they are putting Big Brother Canada on hold according to Big Brother Maple and MyIClick which you can find https://myiclicktv.com/big-brother-canada-9-fans-react-to-news-season-9-on-hold/ or http://bigbrothermaple.com/bbcan9-placed-on-hold for the entire article. However they are not sure they will be able to afford to air it as they are highly depend on sponsors etc but anyways you can read about it in the two articles I sourced on here. Yes I am sad to see this happen and I will again address why on the Friday post.

Amazing Race Canada 8: Finally on the list is Amazing Race Canada which they recently announced on their social media that they will be back next year for Amazing Race Canada 8 so this means they aren't able to film the show this year due to this Pandemic.  However this is why I already have Tough As Nails and hopefully one other show but I am fine with this but I understand why. 


             I know it took them sometime to announce but least we are now getting some news on the shows we love and watch. However we are still awaiting on Big Brother 22 and I just hope Big Brother 22 happens so this won't end up losing listeners especially with our Reality TV Podcast. It is frustrating indeed to have all this spare time of no Reality TV Show so I am trying to make the best of my time to be honest.

Today Marks 1K in Blog Posts!

                    Well today marks 1000 blog posts or 1K if you wanna be totally politically correct... LOL. Anyways when we first started these posts it was here and there on the website and this was just the start so we weren't on the full time or daily blog posts and I couldn't really tell you when we started the full time blogging on a regular basis. However when we did we were very consistent with posting on on a regular basis actually. Yes we did miss a couple of days here and there and we're not trying for a world record but to have this many posts over the years since the beginning of Chris B On The Web almost 6 years ago we sure made up the time. I want to go through all the posts and I know that's a lot but I will be able to find it and pin point where we started and it definitely can be a post for next week and I will write it on my white board as a reminder of to do this post.


                   This isn't going to be overly a long post as I was rushed as I had an dentist appointment today but I want to thank you. Thank-you for sticking by us over the years, remaining loyal to our website, the podcasts and the growing pains we have experienced here on the website through the thick and thin of things with the website. Here is to many more blog posts as we are nowhere near stopping the daily blog content on a regular basis. As long as you guys continue to read the posts, we will continue to create new and exciting posts. We enjoy keeping you guys up to date with the progress of the website and the growth and we have some neat things in the works that we are planning to bring back to the website that we recently removed. We got ton more exciting blog posts coming next week with a ton more updates especially in my gaming world as I just recently made it. So you guys can see we're not slowing down we are full speed ahead.

Mixer Shutting Down-- My Thoughts?

           This came sudden to me with the announcement for Mixer streaming website and I was honestly shocked. I know recently I have had my own feelings about the website but will not talk bad about them as it was a really good website up to me being banned for apparently being under 13 years of age which all of you clearly know that I am not. I was reading into their blog post and did not understand why they were closing and it doesn't  really explain why it is shutting down but here's the article: https://blog.mixer.com/2020/06/22/the-next-step-for-mixer/  however I do not understand why. In my opinion it is truly sad to see another website closed. First Stickam which I grew up with, then BlogTV.com then Justin.TV, Stream.me and so forth. This does mean that streamers will either have to go to Facebook gaming as it says in the post or some go back to Twitch, YouTube or another website. I know how it feels to go from site to site, I've been there as some was the perfect fit for me some weren't. It is wherever you are most comfortable streaming to be honest/


            However I have to remain positive with this post and I have to say thank-you to the Mixer Team for being there for us gaming content creators and helping us grow as creators and grow our community and help us succeed in creating our own community and building. We understand why you have to close down and I remember when it first opened and trust me I was most impressed with the way it looked and I loved the way the chat looked and the name colors rather then a badge for a rank on your chat or even subscriber and I really liked that they were different from other platforms.  I may not be streaming games anymore but still support gaming sites even without it as I watch streamers like Taran from Rob Has A Podcast, Kevin from Big Brother Canada, Boogie2988, McJuggernuggets. Also still streaming our podcast on YouTube eventually. However thank you for reading what I have to say and stayed positive throughout the post and I will see you in the next post tomorrow.
