CAN'T DO THIS WITHOUT YOU! THANK YOU!

Hey Guys!


I just wanted to thank each and every one of you for supporting the continuation of my content here, on Twitch through subscriptions, and on Vid.me through subscriptions! You make this possible!


YouTube has not demonitized (or put me on "limited to no ads") for EVERY video on my vlog channel and 90% of videos on my gaming channel. I am now making $94/month on my vlog channel and $7 on my gaming channel a month through ads, despite grossing over 2 million views a month over both channels. Remember the days when it was $1/1000 views? Me either, but at least I made about $1K in ad rev at one point!


It isn't just me, either. It's EVERY content creator who makes content worth watching (at least IMO) whether it's controversial political content, sex education, entertainment, or creepy content... we are all fucked ad-wise.


I love what I do, and I will continue to do it as long as I possibly can! I am hopeful for the future, and grateful for everyone on Patreon! :) 


I think I wanna start a tier for shout outs at the end of a video, maybe weekly or monthly, for a certain tier-level of Patron. What does everyone think? I also think I will leave this post public so I can share and create a little awareness about how YouTube is fucking content creators. People who didn't get into Twitch or Patreon and banked on the thousands they got a month through ads and making content people enjoy, are now probably ruined, or at least drastically decreased. 


Help and support your favorite content creators in any way you can, and make sure you're ready to move to another platform that appreciates the freedom to speak, and the art of entertainment and honesty!


LOVE YOU SO MUCH! <3

CAN'T DO THIS WITHOUT YOU! THANK YOU!

I didn't realize YouTube got so uptight and controlling, but I'm glad to see you hanging in there!

Miles Woodford

I love you Tara! I hope to someday be able to contribute more. <3

Meg Torres

Love you, Swiftie. ;)

Tara Babcock

Thank you!

Tara Babcock

You truly deserve all of the support that You receive, Goddess Tara.~ I am here for You. I enjoy the shout out tier idea.~

Corey Andrew Wright

It's a pleasure support you

Jose Villegas

Please can you get all the old fsf that were on Vimeo back. Please Tara, I'll be honest I just became a patreon to see these old fsf as I could get all the recent ones on Reddit. Please try and get these back up.

jamie

Of course!

Tara Babcock

I always miss you! <3

Tara Babcock

Im Baaaack!!! Did you miss me??? Hope you're finally settled in your new place.

It's so hard to be a tuber now a days ... But please keep the vids and vlogs coming .. we love you and your content Tara XX

BARNEY

I think what he's trying to say to tara is she's been doing a lot of the same things lately. She mentions stuff in vlogs and never really sticks to it, people are getting tired of the same old same old, not to say that tara isn't putting effort in or not caring but that she's putting the effort in the wrong way to the viewers.

Garrett

Thank You for all the great work and effort You put into this LMT! ❤️❤️❤️

rubbertongue888

I appreciate that so much!

Tara Babcock

It sucks that this is happening but I'll always support you as much as I can. I might only be in the 1$ FSF tier but I still love and respect you and admire all the effort you put into it. Also subscribed on YouTube and twitch, so you were right lol. Keep on being you girl

Sheridan Hall

We love you too Tara 😍😍

Vernon Norman Jr

You completely skimmed over my point earlier, then call me out for not fully getting yours. I didn't accuse people who disagree with me of being virgins. I accused people who constantly try and praise everything some chick on the internet does, just because they want her to notice their existence (like him) of being virgins You claimed it wasn't all about money then tried to say that you saw the people who pay more (3x less of them) of being the majority. Fine, let's stop. Stubborn people like you are pointless arguing with.

No Ham In Manchester

That's not what it is about... you've added words like "just" and things to my statement and completely misrepresent what I am about. I put TONS of effort and love into each one. Believe what you will, this is no longer a productive or respectful conversation in my eyes. People who disagree with you are not virgins, and your perception, or even a majority opinion, is not objective. I appreciate all support of all facets of my content, but I care less for people who don't respect me and my time and effort.

Tara Babcock

And there lies the problem. "I know the majority of people are only here for that but I don't want to put too much effort into it because I like to pretend that's not what this is all about" He's one of your best friends? Sorry I thought he was just other weird little virgin who feels the need to praise you constantly just for attention. I know internet thots get off to that kinda thing.

No Ham In Manchester

Be* :)

Tara Babcock

I put as much time as I want and can. The majority of people may be on HERE for FSF, but I still have 300k people who sub for YT (not counting the gaming channel or Twitch) and more than 10k views every video. As I said, if I stress more on FSF it will no longer be fun and will just e some half-assed camming. I genuinely enjoy what I do now, and if people don't, and don't support the other content, they can move on. It's sad that they feel that way, but there is nothing I can do that won't jeopardize my happiness with FSF and my sanity. I did not tell Pekka to shut up, I just don't think it's helpful to argue. Pekka is one of my best friends and I appreciate everything he does.

Tara Babcock

Thanks for telling him to shut up, I'm just trying to explain myself 😂 You seem to have skimmed over my point though. I'm saying that the majority (in terms of number of people) are only contributing $1. Which means they only get fan service Friday. Which means the majority of people only get fan service Friday, which you seemed to think was wrong. This means that if you put more time into fan service Friday you're putting more time into the thing that most people get/care about. Understand?

No Ham In Manchester

Thank you! If I ever gave in to the people bitching about it, I WOULD cut it out and lose the 3k if needed, but I love it and don't see that happening. <3

Tara Babcock

I make 9k on here. At $1 it would only be a max of 4k of the money. This is also assuming that the whole 2-4k of them are unhappy with the content or just can't contribute more. With all of that said my point still stands. I do my ABSOLUTE best with all of the channels and responsibilities I have, and I make content I enjoy. I refuse to be in it solely for the money, turning something I enjoy into something I hate. Anyway, for the person harassing him, please do not. He is entitled to his opinion. I appreciate the support. <3

Tara Babcock

So I'm just going to ignore the white knight who won't stop replying to me. My point was this: You say you only have 2-3k fan service Friday patrons. You have 3462 patrons in the tier marked "the fan service Friday tier" but okay I'll call that 3000 just so the numbers are in your favour (I've also already said that it isn't just them, seeing as I'm in the $3 but still only care about that) but we will forget that because I'm a minority. I crunched the numbers (I like math) and learned you have 1003 patrons pledging 3+ dollars. Let's say none of them are only here for fan service Friday. I don't get how you can claim that that's the majority? I'm not talking about money, I'm talking about the amount of people. Just because someone pledges more than 5 other people combined shouldnt mean that their opinion is worth more.

No Ham In Manchester

We love you Tara. Even if FSF were never to happen again, we would still be here for you. Hugs. Lots of hugs.

Matthew White

Oooh like the people, how visit Reddit for getting something, that is not from them to get and still have the nerve to bitch about it?! Man this is really sad. And why should we ( people how really care and wanna help out) control what she does with *our money*. And if you are worried about that *fact* the why did sign up in the first place? No logic what so ever

Pekka Laaksonen

Tara. The others are afraid of speaking out, genuinely just look around on the internet and you'll find people who complain about it constantly. You say YouTube is still your main thing and I get that. But in terms of finances FSF attracts way more money than YouTube, like you admitted in the first post. And I'm living proof that people who only want FSF don't just pledge $1. I pledge 3 so I can be in the polls. You have no idea how many of them only want FSF and you used that number to back up a point that you made up.

No Ham In Manchester

Do you see me with a stick attacking you? Nope! Just calling out your bullshit

Pekka Laaksonen

Pornhub is shit. This comment was an attempt to get tara to reply not so that the white knights could attack me

No Ham In Manchester

Or if you still don't get the point, you maybe should take your sorry ass somewhere else. I heard that Pornhub has the best FREE on the web

Pekka Laaksonen

Perhaps a video at the end of the month?

B

I think I will do like Roaming Millennial and a few others and thanks them and throw their usernames/names on the screen. Or maybe, I can do a whole video once a month that replaces FNM that week where I do a challenge or Q&A for that tier as well. We shall see.

Tara Babcock

Perhaps modle monday, if you didn't want to create a new tier. Maybe $15? It could just be a video of its own but that could be a lot of extra work

B

Good to know! I'll have to think about which video, how often, and at what tier! :) I appreciate it!

Tara Babcock

Yeah, I really feel for those who put all of their eggs in one (very stable-seeming) basket! >.

Tara Babcock

I put a TON of effort into FSF. I have never just been "too tired" and doing it weekly full-production is a little too much for my work load. YouTube is STILL (and Twitch) my main thing, and what I love most. I am not in the business of just making money through fan service. If I was, I'd just cam. Though I have about 2-3k FSF Patrons, that is still not the majority, and many of the $1 pledges still respect me, and understand my time management and love FSF as is. Speak for yourself, not others. <3

Tara Babcock

The majority of people who support you financially on here support you for FSF alone, perhaps trying harder with that would be a better way to show you appreciate the support. I'm not talking about your creative decisions, I'm talking about all the times you've claimed to be too tired, or too busy, or just uploaded like a 30 second video where you do the same shit we've seen you do 100 times. It's what makes the majority of your money, yet it seems to get the least effort. Not meaning to sound rude I'm just saying what everyone who doesn't suck up to you thinks and doesn't have the balls to say.

No Ham In Manchester

Sounds like a good idea. I'd kick the extra cash your way for a shout out.

B

So glad we all make such a difference, youtube is going downhill all the time and people are earning so little from it now!
