Being “advertiser friendly” is how you make money in the entertainment industry, like it or not. It’s how it’s always been and it’s how it always will be. Until fans decide to fund all entertainment projects they enjoy “just because” then generating revenue through advertising will be the business model.

Well, at the moment I don’t see the need for the tinfoil hats. I’ll put my on when I feel the time is right.
Complying to not saying “n*****” in your content seems to be a very low request, and if it can’t be met, then sorry.
I don’t really think this is that much of a slippery slope. Nobody wants to advertise next to the word “n*****”. I don’t think it needs to go much deeper than that.
“huuuurgh youtubers shouldn’t make money on youtube”.
If these guys want to make money off their racist videos, then I’d suggest they start their own video streaming platform, and then solicit Coca-Cola for advertising and see how that works out for them.
As a person who trys to practice safe driving at all times, and is aware that the road should be shared with bikers, I feel like the DMV and police or highway patrol don’t do a very good job of making car drivers aware of how to drive with motorcycles and bikes around them. I just moved to LA and apparently it is…

Yep, this needs to be more UFC/WWE and less NFL/PGA. I want shit talking, taunting, tea bagging, the crowds ooooos and ahhhhhs. Its what makes the FGC different than Starcraft and LoL and Counter Strike IMO.
Storylines or “narratives” are what drives ratings. Ratings are what brings the FGC out of stuffy backrooms in arcades and onto primetime ESPN programming for their biggest tournament like EVO 2016. If the goal is to get more eyes on the product (which it is) then “storylines” aren’t stupid at all.
The FGC has always taken cues from WWE. Over the top characters doing ridiculously flashy moves, for the sake of being flashy, over actually just beating the other character up? yeah, FGC loves WWE.
It’s what makes real sports intriguing to a lot of people, and I love this aspect of the FGC. The different personalities. The pro wrestling aspect. Heels and faces. It’s okay to like the more honorable players, but that doesn’t mean you have to erase what makes the guys, who taunt and showboat, interesting away.

I mean the whole system would just collapse if you start willy nilly throwing money around to the players like that.
You forgot the Indians.

That’s a big buzzkill man. I wouldn’t recommend.

Ah, I think she may be alright. I work in accounting, and I know people in auditing. They are always looking for new auditors. One door may close, but another should open for your friend.
