Please stick with lowercase titles.

[@lukejones9816]

+Zane AL Dude! Casey's work is awesome. After seeing it, you complain about the letters not being lowercase? WOW.

[@rosscameroncowie]

+Zane AL Someone else agrees

[@sloppys_fishing]

Luke Jones What's the first thing you see before watching the video? The thumbnail and the video title. It is the most important thing to bring in your viewers. So that being said to always keep your viewers happy and not mislead, is to actually make real titles that are not bold and actually is a topic being discussed in the video, which is what Casey has done with today's upload. Clickbait does really piss a lot of fans off like myself. And don't tell me Casey's work is awesome, I already know that.

[@sloppys_fishing]

But why? Your point is irrelevant. I watch Casey's videos because I like his content and to keep your viewers you should keep them happy. So all the little things such as the thumbnail and title do add up and can change a lot of things.

[@sloppys_fishing]

Team Android Canada Yes that is correct but, It seems that some KZbinr's just do it purely for the profit and by using your girlfriend in a bikini for the thumbnail and titles such as "BIKINI GIRLFRIEND GETS PRANKED" and the actual "prank" is only a 5 second clip and the rest of it is just 10 minutes of boring stuff and isn't entertaining like you have just stated. This paragraph is directed to RomanAtwood. I've been watching him for a while, and I watch him because I like him as a person and NOT for his clickbaity titles. His vibe and mentality is so positive there is no wonder he has all these subscribers. Just the manipulation of all these little kids that want to see some half naked girl isn't the right way to go at bringing in your viewers. And plus you're putting your girlfriends privacy onto the internet like that's a dick move.

I have seen quite a lot of places around here, the pandemic made me focus more on traveling around the country than outside of it.
