Our Founder/Owner Is Getting Close To Returning!

            After the post that Chris did yesterday, I can truly tell that he is ready to come back  to his role as Founder/Owner. It has been a long coming for him to return as our Owner as he has been off for a week and a half. I think the trip up north definitely did him so good and he's finally realized it is time for him to come back and run the day to day operations with me helping him as well. He has to realize he's got the team behind him 150% I am not sure when he will be returning as he's not given any hints whatsoever but he is showing signs he wants to be more involved with ChrisBOnTheWeb as he's been off for sometime now but just cannot tell you guys when that is the question. However he's not being clear when he is coming back but he's starting to realize he needs ChrisBOnTheWeb in his life. It's become a big part of him and his life. Something must of clicked while he was away yesterday. 


            However I can say he is getting close to returning just I wish he would tell us when whether it is next week (Monday) or a week Monday he hasn't said anything to me as of when I wrote this post for the day so I couldn't tell you and probably an announcement will be made by Friday at the latest. We will see but I think he is going to make an announcement today to the staff that he is returning but we can only hope he is on his way back and we will be a full strength of a team again. I can be honest I saw him show some more interest. For those who didn't know he was feeling like he's lost all his interest in what he loves to do and I think it has to do with the fact that this virus and him not able to go to events this year and he's just having no interest in the blogs or podcasts but that all seems to change with him making that post yesterday which brought his spirits up again. We'll all know by Friday morning at the most what he has decided to do.

Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast Renewed!

             Well, well, well... Long time no see. It has been a while since making blog content for you guys as our community manager has been taking the reigns of CBOTW in the last week but him and I spoke just before this post was started to be written. Jim wanted me to be the one to tell you guys this news that just happened in the last 18 - 20 hours. The news is that Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast has once again been renewed for another year which means another year of Power Rangers Content. Which ones will we be covering or seasons we will be covering in the new year? Well here is it:

- Power Rangers: SPD (Spring 2021)

- Power Rangers: Mystic Force (Spring 2021)

- Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive (Summer 2021)

- Power Rangers: Jungle Fury (Summer 2021)

- Power Rangers: RPM (Fall 2021)

- Power Rangers: Samurai (Fall 2021)

             

               There are no dates just approximations to when it will be out as right now we are still currently in this season still as we got Season 10, 11 and 12 (Wild Force, Ninja Storm & Dino Thunder) to still cover but to be clear: this is just confirmation that we are continuing on with this podcast. Once we have more information on the schedule for 2021, I or even Jim will be announcing. Now it will depend when I plan on returning as an Owner but we will see but one of blog staff will be the one that announces it but I should be back well before. Anyways that is my announcement and quite a surprise to hear from the Boss Man after a week of not posting up on the website personally huh.... I thought, I'd surprise you guys and maybe I need to do that once and a while, during my leave of absence so you guys do not have to worry. Hope you all enjoyed this post and I will talk to you all soon, I miss you guys and hope you all are well.

Let's Try This Chat Thing Yet Again! SMH!

           This was all Chris's idea in the way of chat of returning to the website and I had a couple of ideas which I will not get into as we're in the early stages of the chat's return and we do not want to rush it. However it is back up and running and yes guest chat is an option for right now but if the spam and disrespect returns then we will be locking down the chat once again and we are not afraid to do that whatsoever.  There is no holding back and we wanna grow the website and build this community. This is one of the reasons we brought it back was to start growing the community and the website. Now the views are up this is a great time to expand on the website so we made a few tweaks to the menu bar and the About is under it's own drop down menu to make way for the chatroom which was released right away.


           The chatroom can be found on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com/p/community.html and staff is around typically during the daytime but sometimes we will hide out in the chatroom from time to time but depends if we are awake we may answer but keep checking back in our community chat. We hope one of these days if we can get the chat really busy that we can start doing Community Nights on our chatroom but that is part of Phase 3 of the plan as we are only in Phase 1 which is growing the community. We also will be looking for Moderators but in due time. The Only Moderator we have right now is LarryR82 as he is a former staff member of The Video Projects Team and ChrisBOnTheWeb and he has Moderator status on our chatroom and is around when he can be on. Let's regrow this community and grow this website even further!

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [09-27-2020]

                Another week is here and our very last update for the month of September as we head into a brand new month this week. It's been a very busy week as we finish up notes and Chris's lack of sleep during the entire night and Chris gone on leave a week ago which I will have an update on him as he's been staying in touch with me through messanger and Skype. Here are the updates:

Website: As I said on Twitter last night we are on pace for a 9k view for the month which is crazy with all the traffic that we have had this month and like I have said in the past this website is generating more and more traffic on a regular basis which is good and goes back to what I said this week on a post that we are getting viewership on here. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: As you know Chris has taken this week off and we have now re-scheduled the podcasts for the coming weeks all Facebook/Twitter has been updated to reflect the change and he will be back next week and he has spoken to me about recording tomorrow morning so he can get it done ahead of time. Probably he is going to base that he is going to actually start recording on Mondays. He also finished up podcast notes this morning for this podcast.

Chris: He has now been on leave for an entire week and he's still struggling and been acting up especially on Facebook where he's been banned from Facebook twice in a week so his behavior with Facebook and why he's not able to post on the page at this time well today he will be returning again. However he has started to feel better but as I said he was insulted and that hasn't helped him one bit to be honest. However he is starting to feel better and this morning he finished up notes on the one podcast and starting on Wild Force Notes so he can actually record with Larry within a week hopefully. 


             There are the updates for this week and there is no news when Chris is planning to return and he trusts me to keep on running things and I honestly do not find this too hard as most of the site work has been done before he went on leave. It is just the day to day operations of ChrisBOnTheWeb and we are hanging in there while he feels better. I gotta feeling he will be back in a week or 2 from now ready to go. As I told him, when he is ready to wear the Owner tags again as he is only wearing his blue Special Access badge right now around the studio. I will give you a good heads up when he returns but for right now is to continue the day to day operations and make him proud that we held up without his presence.

Going To Help Chris With His PGATour2k21

              I am going to help Chris with his PGA2k21 with his game since he has officially has not gotten his money back on the game cause it was hard, he wants to give it another shot and really try his hardest to get good at the game. He was good at the Tiger Woods PGA Golf when he played those many years ago when he had that along with MVP 2003 and NHL which he is going to have to tell the story how he stacked up the teams on both of those games as a throwback Thursday story. However I am going to tell him, the more he keeps on playing the higher the level he will be on the game and probably will become a better player too. I have to tell him that he needs to make sure he knows where he is aiming the shot before hitting and that is the one issue he has had with it. Also he has to work on his putting on there too as he's shown me footage of him playing the game and it's bad and he admits it too in his commentary that he is really bad at putting. He was openly joking around that his putting sucks in the real life version of the game and not sure why he made a reference to that honestly. 

 

                I am going to do my best to help him but he has to grind, grind, grind. I admit he isn't really bad just a few things that needs to be fixed and I know he is willing to work on the issues he is having. He wishes there was no glitch issues with NBA2K21 with the weird green screen at one point so there are bugs with the game but he has gotten 2K20 to try it to see if there is a difference but we will see. I will try to help him out and will play the game with him even I think it is possible to play against each other and maybe the best way to teach him but he will get better it will just take time. This is the first time he's actually play a sports game in a 2K series and he has openly said it is very different from Tiger Woods or NHL series of sports games.

Chris Is Up To Something, but What?

               Something is up with Chris. He has now become very silent with the Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and honestly I do not think it is the end of that podcast past December. There is plans beyond 2020 that he is not telling us the staff of the website nor Larry or myself so something is truly up and his being sneaky with the next plans. We all know by now a renewal for Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast is coming up and the two of them are sneaky but more like he (Chris) is being a sneak and he's truly doing something big and I sense something is up. We probably won't know for a few months on the announcement and sounds like there is talks again but I cannot really tell as Larry and him have been talking but I was not involved the conversation. 

 

               I know the viewership is low with Power Rangers Time Force and probably why the two of them are laying low with decision making for now. It is totally understandable and there are still 3 seasons to still cover before they decide but I can see the fact he's really worried about the viewership with the last one and I can see why. However he is up to no good and very sneaky and acting really off then usual so something is going to happen I just know it. It will happen in time but right now I cannot tell you anything because even I don't know what he is up to but the way the way he is wording his words and he is up to something but I just wanted to say this he is most definitely up to no good right now. We'll see and I will be watching him like a hawk... ha ha! I will see you all in the next post tomorrow.

We Do Get Views on Our Content & Website!

            So with the trolls telling us get better content and they wanna help to get us more views and we already get views like 200 - 300 or more a day which adds up and we got 100K pretty fast so the numbers does add up and we actually get quite a good amount of traffic and we rather not talk about analytics too much as we do not wanna bore you guys with the details but you kind of forced us to bring up our analytics. So do not say we do not get views when we do and clearly doing very well for ourselves to this day. We continue to grow on a regular basis and we triple over the last several months with views  as we use to get 2k at the most a month on our website which was little now we get about 6 - 7K a month and we are continuing to grow on a daily basis! To be honest, this month we just got over 7k and we're 8 days from finishing up the month of September. What's next? 8K in the month of October? You never know!


             We do get views so you can stop complaining we don't get views and we have been told that in the past too. However the facts are true and we can easily print screen the analytics if we wanted to but that is for our eyes only. We may have lost a few followers here and there but followers come and go. Also we're not lying about our views gone up either and haters will hate and let em. They are jealous of our success and we have had people like that in the past and we can let them get jealous and hate us for success we have made with ChrisBOnTheWeb. We will continue to grow as a website and with our content and what not and we are nowhere near done creating content as we have another podcast in the works which you guys know what it is anyways and this will help us continue to grow as a community.

I Originally Helped Build The Original ChrisBOnTheWeb.com

             This is going way back to the early days of us having a .com website or Chris so to speak like 2015 when he got the original ChrisBOnTheWeb.com which didn't have as many views as it does today to a couple of hundred of views a day which I will get into on another post another day this week as I have several ideas for the week. Anyways I want to go back 5 years ago when we just started out with a .com website, when this all became a reality. Yes we were a year and a half before ending YouTube as a whole but I helped Chris build the website from the ground up, pages added to the website the entire build of what was our very first menu bar which Chris hasn't really spoken about and I think he rather squash the fact he was with that provider as he's had his share of problems where they banned the website for no apparent reason not once but twice in the time which honestly was ridiculous. I'm sure it was being falsely reported but the point is we are with blogger now fully and love the way we have built up this website. 

 

          So I had a big hand in the build of the ORIGINAL website and have experience with the way ChrisBOnTheWeb.com runs so maybe that is why he has chosen me to help with the day to day operations while he's away. Now not only that I helped him build this website's pages and menu bar. Wasn't just Mark and I, it was a 3 man operation and there was a ton of work and it took us a long time. Chris mainly tested it and reported back to us as we did majority of the work switching on a regular basis. Either that doesn't matter who work on the website but I have learned a lot about building Menu Bars, CSS Code, IFrame and even building social media buttons within the website. This is how I am familiar with the build of our website. I hope you all enjoyed this story of how I was involved the website before we moved to blogger or blogspot on more permanent basis and I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

Chris Is On A Partial Leave of Absence...

           Well, you trolls won... You drove poor Chris to insanity and stress. He pours his time and effort into content, to continuing to grow this website, give him a darn break! He works countless hours without a break whatsoever, he works day in and day out and you tell him to get better content when he is working hard. It has been nothing but trolls and insults and rudeness towards him and the entire team. We lost one staff cause of ex staff being rude... It's driven him to a mental breakdown. I'm sorry but I have to vent because enough is enough with all of this. So the news I have is that Chris has decided with my help and suggestions to take a leave of absence from the administration side of things. However he will not be steering away from podcasts notes, Entertainment Man Podcast & Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and he will tweet updates from time to time when he's not busy to say hi or any updates on the podcast planning but I will also be tweeting and posting to social media as well. 


            Chris has been unhappy for nearly 2 months now and I saw this coming even before I took over the role of Community Manager and been around the ChrisBOnTheWeb Socials and the website. I may be taking on a bigger role within the team as Administrator but I will also be still pertaining the Community Manager role as normally. I am just taking on a second role while boss man is away getting better and dealing with his depression. Honestly I can say this, Chris has thought about giving me full Ownership and stepping down as Owner of the website and group but glad he has decided to do this and I've been trying to get him to take time away from the admin side of things to focus on the project aspect. Do not worry I was one of the 2 between myself and Mark who helped and built the menu bar and social media buttons on the website so I do have experience in coding and I previously helped him with the Original ChrisBOnTheWeb.com on that other provider that Chris doesn't really like... Finally you will be seeing more posts from me unless Chris decides to pop on to say hi and do a post. Do not worry, he is going to be back and when is the question as I cannot really tell you guys at this point when he is planning to start doing his normal everyday duties. Let's just hope he doesn't have to take another leave again cause of you trolls. Let me give you a warning, you once insult us or disrespect us, you will be banned and not allowed back. We have no room for trolls as wanna keep things flowing well and have been flowing well with new programming coming soon to the website. I will address that this week at some point.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [09-20-2020]

            It is that time of the week again for another update. Another crazy week and let me say this: Give Chris a break. he is trying to create quality content for you guys and you tell him to do better content when he's trying his darnest to actually give you guys good content. We will ban trolls for disrespect and I was trashed talked in the last day or two and it is not tolerated honestly and we have to start putting our foot down and not afraid to ban if we have to and we will warn but honestly it doesn't seem to help sometimes. Anyways to the updates:

Website- Stream page has been removed as we are continuing on with the Audio ONLY side of things and wanna focus on Audio ONLY which is a ton better then Video and we have been told or Chris has been told we get a ton more views. Another thing you guys say we don't get views when the website and the podcasts are getting ton of views so people clearly do care and listen to our stuff. 

Power Rangers Podcast- The next recording of the podcast is scheduled for October sometime as Chris has to type up Wild Force still as it was put on hold recently but he will get it done soon I'm sure.  He also has to get to Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder for December so he can start the next phase if they chose to renew which he addressed it physically yesterday after the convo him and Larry. He didn't say much but has hinted things but he's being super weird with the plans with it at this point. 

             That is really is much it for updates. Not much to say or update for you guys and I had to vent on some trolling recently but we will not tolerate that and we are going to be careful and keep an eye out on the fan page and like I said if we have to warn people and/or ban them, we will but we will give a 2 warnings before a ban but those are the updates for the week and I will be speaking to you guys next weekend. Have a great week in the meantime.

Larry and I Been Joking Around and Updates!

           I had to share this as you know we're now in negotiations for a Renewal for Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and Larry had to make a stupid joke that we will still be doing this when we're 80 years old! I know we are making stupid jokes about ourselves but hey like he said as long as we're having fun with the series and talking about it that is what really matters.  You guys probably wondering are we getting close to a renewal? Well not yet. We have spoken about it recently this week and it is in the back of our minds at this point but we are having fun with the fact with in our 30's or late 30's talking about Power Rangers and there will always be some kind of series we will always be talking about I'm sure. By the sounds of the renewal I think it's gonna happen, I have a funny feeling it's gonna happen sooner or later and we will see us continuing on with this amazing series.  As Larry and I mentioned it is little early to be making this decision as we still got 3 more episodes to go before end of our agreement once again and this would make this the second agreement we have made so we will have to make a decision before December whether we are going to continue on and I think we will. 


              I have a feeling it is in the back of our mind it will be renewed and we will be indeed back to recording Power Rangers Podcast in February 2021 even if we end up still stuck with doing it through Skype at this point. I am good doing it through Skype at this point and one of these days we will be both back in studio recording the podcast at some point when this pandemic gets at ease and under control once we get a vaccine for it. Anyways I want this to continue even during this pandemic and I know it is not the same doing this via Skype but what other choice do we have. So yes both Larry and myself have talked about the future of the collaboration podcast and it will happen when the time is right but at this moment I do not think it is the appropriate time and we just need to focus on finishing these up but we continue to negotiate and we both thank you guys for your continuing love and support through email that you would like  to see us continue this collab and please keep telling us you'd like to continue to hear the podcast, anything helps us. 



Chris
