Also worth mentioning, when a reaction video became a transformative enough to be ethical, it's become a commentary video. There's more than just reactions. That's what your channel has been, very ethical. Edit: This isn't open season to talk shit in the comments. It's okay to disagree with their viewpoints, you can do that without being a douche. It's literally free. They are intelligent adults and I'm sure their viewpoints will shift as they get a better perspective of the 'culture shift'.

Either way, you guys are way more entertaining than XQC with the personal stories and the jokes, theres countless potential for memes whenever you guys upload even if its a 10 minutes video

There is a very clear and massive different between reacting to like a 15 second Tik Tok versus reacting to an hour long video that took months to make while just sitting there eating. There's a reason that movies and TV shows have these copyright protections so their work can't just be fully reuploaded without consequences, and I think if a KZfaqr wants those similar levels of protection that's totally valid. When you run a KZfaq channel as a business it's very different than posting memes. Reddit or Tik Tok reactions are just fundamentally not at the same level, and to assume that they are is ridiculous. Memes are meant to be shared and passed around to all counters of the internet, that is the point.

I remember seeing somewhere that Xqc's defense for "reacting" to videos is "What am I supposed to do, react harder?" I'm not sure if he was serious or not

Brian's dad's parrot mimicking the mom is like Brian's soundboard 😂 😂

I completely disagree with Brian, Creators barely get any sort of promotion from react creators. The volume of the content they steal is just so large you can't expect any fraction of the audience to go to the original creators, and its been proven from creators who have gotten reactions from their videos that it gets them 100 or somewhere in that ballpark amount of views, anyone blowing up from being reacted to is the exception rather than the rule. and the point of it being a compliment to react to something, literally doesn't matter. I wouldn't want a millionaire to profit off my work in exchange for a compliment, nobody sane would. I still continue to watch this channel though because it is transformative enough that I watch for Brian's and Nogla's conversations instead of the tik tok's themselves. when XQC puts on someone else's video essay that took 6 months of effort to make and then eats noodles in the corner, that's blatant theft to have engaging content playing on your stream without putting in any work to do so. And people like Brian giving backlash on channels that have dozens of hours of work behind them is a really shit take man. Please respect the channels that don't just blurt out a video made in a few hours everyday, instead of insulting them for rightfully being pissed

11:04 Brian’s point here just doesn’t add up to me. I’m in the boat with DarkViperAU in that there isn’t a mutual trade going on in regards to most react content. Brian saying that people shouldn’t be getting upset over bigger streamers basically stealing other people’s content, that the original creator got the “biggest brand deal” and that he is “just complaining” is crazy to me. Also you can’t really say what people can and cannot get upset about especially if you are not the one being negatively affected. What XQC has been doing is completely against fair use and should be scrutinized because of it. I love this channel and I do think what Nogla and Brian have been doing is seen as fair use but not what XQC has been doing.

The problem with the xQc thing is that none of those people were watching his video. He could have had 15,000 people in his stream and not one would be watching the video on KZfaq. They're watching xQc's channel, so the video with 15,000 people watching it would only register as a single person watching. Neo has 1.46 million subscribers on youtube. I don't know if he's really looking for exposure. xQc is literally making money off of playing the content that he didn't make, and added nothing to except his empty chair. "Free exposure" is an insult to anyone who provides a service, and it's usually a sign that someone wants something for nothing.

I can’t say I agree with you guys about the way xQc does his reactions. For a reaction to be transformative it has to be like what you guys do. Adding to the video and enhancing it. Leaving a video up for your audience to watch just steals the views from the original video, and there’s no guarantee it’ll bring new traction to the channel. That said, you guys set a good example and I hope more creators take from your book!

Your channel isn’t an issue within reaction content. You guys provide a lot more than the original video. You make it something more.

The argument Brian makes is the same as telling a artist that you are paying them in "getting their name out". XqCs stream just seen the entire video in full with no one talking over it. Why would they go to the original? The chance I go to a new channel because of a react channel is maybe 2% and even then it is probably just to read the comments which gives no watch time to the channel which is what youtube tracks

Ludwig made a great point and possibly I would argue the best solution to this drama on his "Huge KZfaqr Drama" video on his Mogul Mail channel. He said, "there should be a tool for creators to claim the monetization of a video." He goes on to explain that the tool technically doesn't exist for creators, but for only certain companies in mcns. Music companies and Mcns can do it, but creators can't. I'm assuming there's a lot more companies that can do it too, just using those two examples that he provided. Now I do want to say that react videos and response videos are different. Allowing creators, like LEMMiNO, to claim the monetization of a video they made that say a Streamer/KZfaqr, xQc, reacted too is good. However, say KZfaqr 1 makes a response video, get's their video monetization claimed by KZfaqr 2, who originally made a video about them(YT1), because they(YT1) took clips from their(YT2) video and responded to it. That wouldn't be good. For that, KZfaqr 1 should be able to submit some sort of request to remove the monetization claim that was made by KZfaqr 2, with evidence that correctly justifies their request. Hopefully that make sense, if not I'm willing to try and explain it better. LEMMiNO should be able to claim the monetization of xQc's "The Kennedy Assassination | xQc Reacts to LEMMiNO" video, why because xQc uploaded the entire video of LEMMiNO without giving any education or other meaningful purpose on his channel. Now you could say that he was watching the video to learn about the it, but that doesn't excuse him for uploading the hour long video onto his channel for monetary gain. Doesn't matter how much he gains, he still gains. Sure in terms of views LEMMiNO has 5.8 million views on "The Kennedy Assassination" video, while xQc has 400k views on his "reaction" video at the time of writing this, but stealing is stealing, and he gains monetary for those 400k views still. At least allow content creator to claim the monetization. Everyone can be happy.

I don't think Brian realises that after they would've seen the video on xqc's channel, only a fraction of a fraction of a percent will check out the channel, especially if the reactor is reacting to something that isn't at all related to them.

Darkviperau has done a lot of very good videos on the ethics of react content and how most of the time the person getting reacted too will lose they will see barely a spike in views and barely any viewer retention leaving that creator with nothing and the reactor with thousands of dollars that they get from watching a video and "reacting"

Brian and Nogla. There already been videos you can now search up that showcase that after the small initial spike of views/subscribers that the original creator gets, the "react" channel gets 10 times everything from "reacting" said video.

I personally dislike XQC a lot for some of his really toxic behavior he's had towards others. I can completely understand why some people take offense to having their video reacted to by him. If someone posts a video and doesn't want someone to react to it, then be a good person and choose not to react to it.

Neo put effort into making an hour long informal video and uploading it to youtube, which would take upmost to a week to make (as example). XQC in the other hand watches the entire video on stream with thousands of viewers, making revenue off it without any kind of effort. Do you see why people do not like react channels/ streamers reacting to videos?

I think Brian and Nogla just make it into the group of good reactors. For a reactor to be any good they need two things, permission from the creator whether direct or indirect (basically not getting told by the creator to take it down or not do it) and to actually contribute something like comedy skits or discussion. There are tons of reactors who just sit there and make noises, say the same thing over and over in all their videos or do nothing and profit off of someone who has made an amazing video. Quite a few people will watch a reaction video and then not watch the original cause they've seen it and it can take attention away from a person who's just trying to make a living.

To add to the react discussion, there's a big difference between what you guys do and what people like xQc or Hasan do. To use the latter as an example. Hasan did something very similar to a video belonging to a KZfaqr called JayExci, where he played the video in it's entirety, fecked off a minute into the video, and didn't return until the end of the video. What makes this worse is that, on top of adding nothing transformative, he didn't even credit Jay. In fact as soon as it got to the part where Jay was advertising his channel and other videos, Hasan quickly began speaking over the video and clicked off of it. So Jay didn't benefit in anyway from that. Wildcat's counter at the end of that whole section was one hell of a strawman. "They can't prove you benefitted from xQc's "reaction", but you can't prove that you didn't. Therefore you're still wrong." What make you guys different is that you add your own commentary and jokes and stories ON TOP of watching memes and such. It's your personalities that keep us watching and enjoying. So while, no, not all reaction channels are lazy, some genuinely are. Same with review channels, you have some that put so much effort into being as unique and informative on a film, game, etc. as possible, and then you have half arsed ones whose content is basically "I liked that. I didn’t like that" with very little substance. Apologies for the paragraphs, but a subject like this desverse nuance as opposed a simple "It's good/bad, and anyone that disagrees is wrong. End of story!" remark.

The reason why he got so angry is because he posted the video just an hour later when he finished it. That's why it was such a big drama

The crazy part about that African Grey Parrot is that the guy originally said that the tile backsplash was rock, but the parrot kept saying it was glass because it made the same sound when he hit it. The guy reexamined it and admitted that it actually was glass. That's why the parrot says "Glassk" because the owner was just trying to convince him that glass was rock so the parrot just combined the two.

Ive followed yall for years yal were my high school years, now as a mom myself i got my kids watching this and laughing, ill admit yall separate channels hit or miss together i havent missed a video even when in the hospital with pneumonia when i was finally awake i daught up on every video i missed, love you irish men keep it up on everything 💕

React channels take up a large portion of my subscriptions. Ive been watching many for years and I will say theres a clear ranking in quality for those channels. Me personally I enjoy channels like Blind Wave, Normies, Sean TankTop, Reel Rejects, and Holden Hardman because while they react to movies and tv shows they are always going to have a discussion at the end to speak more about while conveying how they feel also throughout the whole video. A personal favorite of mine is YaBoyRoshi, great personalities, and when they go live on twitch to play games they also bring their discussions into the games they play. I think at one point I was watching them livestream the ending of TLOU2 and after it finished everyone went into a 3 hour discussion regarding the actions of each character and what they think the ending symbolized. While I do consider channels who just constantly watch memes/tiktoks to be the lowest tier of reaction content I can still say I enjoy it as long as theirs something to be thrown in or it looks like theirs effort into editing and etc... What XQC does is pure laziness. Puts on a video and leaves to soak in money is ridiculous. And also your guys's consensus on react content is pretty delusional considering you think that just because a big guy is watching something a little guy made, just barely paying attention is justified because they're bringing in more views. I get with the nature of this channel and how it operates but, realistically how would you feel if you were a channel that is spending hours of research to put together a video for example Wendigoon and then spending double that time having it edited just for someone bigger than you to put it on their stream and then leaving and making hundreds off of it in a few minutes.

21:57 Yes! Nogla always knows the right words to describe our level of apathy. 😂

Brian with the brain dead take 💀

There's ONE sign of a good reaction channel. 1. You are getting more laughs, or having more thoughts about the video because of what the person(s) reacting add to the video.

MauLer and co said it best “don’t just sit there for ten minutes adding nothing and you’re fine.” You guys talk, you make jokes and all sorts of observations. XQC has multiple videos where he just sits there with no verbal reaction or discussion.

As an avid birb lover THANK YOU BRIAN! While you didn't get too deep into it, you did mention how having a pet African gray isn't always as sweet as that vid showed. Too many people get birbs thinking they'll be like a puppy, when in reality a lot (especially parrots) end up acting like a moody toddler. Also African grays on average have one of the biggest vocabularies

That “are you okay??” Was so genuine lmao Brian’s a real one for that 💜

i think Brian is blowing a lot of smoke up a lot of bums. what isn’t talked about enough is the NATURE of the videos being watched. showing the entirety of a viral moment or clip from a content creator i believe really can push a lot of traffic or encourage people to seek more. those kinds of videos are inherently more rewatchable because of their briefness or non uniqueness. the video that started the controversy was a kind of video that can’t be rewatched as easily and covers a unique topic like the “world’s densest city”. it’s not as though it was an installment in a longer series about that city or a funny moments video that is replaceable

When it comes to reaction videos, people clowned on Akasan for leaving while the video played yet now people are defending XQC for doing the same thing…because he’s XQC. I mean, sure XQC is a big streamer and playing the video in front of his audience could give the channel a big bump but it still has to be transformative, right? There are reaction channels that have to really be carful how much of the video they show or have to pause the video and talk to make the video fair use. Of course Terroriser isn’t gonna give a shit, cause he already made his money so I’m assuming he has nothing to worry about and nothing really to gain from XQC reacting to his videos. It just sets a bad precedent to just let the video play while you’re not reacting to it while other react channels have to walk on eggshells.

XQC showcasing the video on his stream gets him a lot of views, but him tweeting about it and causing the drama gets him even more views

I'm definitely going to have to disagree with Terroriser here. Having your video being broadcast by a streamer does not always equal more views for the original uploader. For instance, if I saw a streamer watch an entire KZfaq documentary with little constructive commentary, what reason would there be to watch it again on the original channel? The streamer is essentially profiting off the creator's hard work and leaving them with nothing but "exposure".

brian is aging really fast now🧔🏻‍♂️

Meanwhile Tyler does reaction videos with Panda 😂

You got to think about the algorithm when it comes to react videos. If you want to react video of someone’s original content, you won’t get more original content like that recommended to you. You’ll get more react content recommend to you so it hurts original creators a lot. Also if big KZfaqrs upload react content where they are really not doing much to “change” it they’re pretty much just making free money. And if you think the original creator can claim a video and all the profit made from it, you’d be wrong. In order to claim a video for its profit, you need to have a KZfaq content manager account which is something that is only given primarily to big studios like Disney. When it comes to streaming react content that seems fine, but when you react to a video and then upload it to KZfaq, without really changing much to it or adding much to it, it’s pretty much stealing Contin. Yes, it can give them some exposure, but most of the time people are not gonna go to watch the original video or go to the original content creator. If you upload or react video and you’re adding to it by giving your own opinions on certain things, giving more insight, or just telling some personal stories or telling jokes seems that’s fine. But if you react to a video and kind of just sit there in silence, and not really do anything and upload it. You’re pretty much stealing content.

Nogla blessing himself before eating in the factor sponsorship was so cute and wholesome. Was raised catholic, and i still do it sometimes before eating, especially on a bad day.

My favorite candy as a kid, that got changed because the Wonka company is run my idiots, is the original Gobstoppers. They were jawbreakers little cousin that had a bunch of different flavor layers down to a small crunchy core. Now they're about half the size, have 2 thin layers, and a giant red chalky core.

Just leaving a video sitting there and not reacting at all is pretty much the same as reuploading it. What xqc did was unethical. What you guys do is transformative. I don't agree with your points but I do understand them, and I like your content.

Xqc sits there watching full 20min videos just sitting there eating and not talking. It’s very different from this.

"The bump" does not exist, react content for full length videos is bad, however react content to memes imo is better as it just doesn't matter as much. React content to big and important videos is just scummy and basically stealing.

The reason why we haven’t been back to the moon is because it’s literally just a rock. There’s nothing more to study, it’s just a rock.

The thing is, this isn't just a react channel. Sure, they react to stuff, but like they spend 5 minutes talking about stuff. So like 50% of the video is them discussing stuff like a podcast.

** This comment has been deleted due to unpaid taxes to Turkish government. **

Nogla: "what candy do you remember from your childhood?" Me: "i remember it being affordable"

Of course the people that make money from reaction videos aren't gonna be against it.

I love how u can just notice how Brian is slyly reading the script by the Sponsor 😅

StarAI got AI David and Brine to sing Danny Boy!! Yall need to listen to it!!

Nogla, there were 9 moon missions, 12 Americans walked on it.

The whole react drama is basically “I want money you took my money” 😂

Tyler got cooked on Twitter cause of the react thing lmao

I like watching this channel when I workout because I don’t have to focus on anything other than what terroriser and nogla say.

The pokemon you beat until 3 hp, poisoned it, and left it paralyzed 😂

People say react channels don’t add much but noglas face when the kid got hit with the wiffle ball was hilarious

I think the main problem with a lot of streamers "reacting" is that they can't make any edits and they usually just watch the full videos uncut without really adding anything to the original content. I disagree with the exposure argument especially if the original creator is upset about the "reaction" The exposure doesn't always help, since people seen the reaction to the video already, they have no reason to watch the original and even if people do go follow, not many will stick around anyways. It's also worse if the original content is monetized and the reactor gets the views that the original creator would've got.

False swipe is that pokemon move that always leaves them with at least 1hp

Love how the Moon Landing conpiracy nuts always ask "how come we never went back to the moon?" We did, like... five times.

biggest crime here is calling silent hill 2 resident evil

I half expected this to be Nogla and Brian to just leave the room for the rest of the episode lmao

I'd rather have reaction channels that incorporate or adding something onto it that it makes the reaction channel sort of transformative one, such as Nogla & Terroriser's Reaction channel. It's like, they are learning to what they are watching/reacting to, as well as the audience were also learning (it doesnt have to be educational) from them. There are a lot of reaction channels that only do "React". Saying commentaries like "Wow", "Woah!", etc. Doesn't really add up to the content. There are also reaction channels thay literally reuse the same clips then slap their face on it doing smiles or just stare onto the camera. I think that's what Tyler is trying to call out. Those are the kind of reaction content that are cringey and useless

To travel to the moon again would cost an insane amount of money, resources, time, effort, and energy and still involves very high risks. It's just not worth it to expend all of that for that little we would gain from it comparatively

Wildcat being the southern white mascot of the channel has soured.. Guy doesn’t know how to take it, but can sure dish it out in his lamborghini.

4:14 Nogla, I'm glad you understood the context, but that's not resident evil, that's Silent hill 2.

Never accept exposure, only accept money. He didn't leave "for a little while" he left for ten minutes. Wildcat is the lowest of all you Vanoss crew anyway

I imagine theres phones and Nogla would spend his weekly phone call to hell catching up with Brian.

I love how Nogla and Terroriser are just riding this drama,and doing what the do best 😂

Brian no you can't just leave during a stream like xqc

It would be cool if both Nogla and Brian, or at the very least, either of you to post your workout routines and or progress if you have them. Love the videos btw!

This channel is part podcast part react, which I really enjoy. Getting to see you guys in a more relaxed, conversational setting where you can talk about your lives, the history of the group, and current events is both creative and extremely entertaining. Not cringe at all

I loved Calippo shots, the only downside was that it always got frozen and stuck on the lid

I think what makes you guys different from people like xqc is the fact that you guys actually add to the content by actually REACTING to the vid/meme/etc, as well as adding your own thoughts, sharing a similar experience you had, joking and telling stories between the tik tok videos. You're adding your own content to the original so it counts as transformative or fair use. Xqc and others like him have a tendency to just silently watch the video which is basically just stealing content at that point. Tldr: What you guys do is great, keep it up 👍

i was crazy once. they locked me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats and rats make me crazy.

Fans of individual vanoss crew members were introduced, and began following the other members of the vanoss crew because of how everyone reacted to, engaged with and conversed with eachother. Most verbal interactions between people are reactionary responses. Laughing, acknowledging, criticising etc, are all reactive interactions. To be prevented from reacting is to prevent people from interacting with eachother. 10ish years down the line, i dont even remember which vanoss crew member i started watching first, but because of who ever it was, i watch alot of the crews channels, even with the seperation of interests.....which is only a natural thing to occur, panda didnt want to be angry, being angry is stressful and exhausting, i know that first hand, his seperation from many games didnt phase me in the slightest, im happy he did what was best for him, he still has the same humour and personality, the thing i enjoy watching. Vanoss, diving more into his career and passion, its inspiring, and honestly he went back to his roots, music was how he started, and the direction he wanted to go. And then we have the moments where everyone comes together and pisses eachother off, laughs at eachother, insults eachother and we get the classic hilarious crew we all love.

This is a really difficult subject to understand what is right and what is wrong on KZfaq. I think the way that you guys and Scott and Anthony react where you pause the video and incorporate your own stories and ideas, and banter with one another in a more commentary sort of way is much different than a lot of the twitch streamers making absolute bank by having to literally sit there and watch videos all day. I don't really have a problem with people like XQC who also plays games and clearly has created this character online but I see guys like Kai and Adin ross just press go live and have to do absolutely nothing to gain a ridiculous amount of viewership and money and it really does seem like a cop out. There's no hard work or really effort of any kind going in to those streams. On top of that, I can see why someone would get upset just having there video played on one of these "react streams" realizing how little effort the reactor had to do watching their video, sure they could gain audience and viewership, but I bet it's nowhere near the amount of money that these streamers are making just from watching their video. A feel everyone has mixed opinions on this but I could definitely see copyright issues in the future reacting to other peoples content much like music. I think ye lads are still doing great tho, the react channel is fun, and edgy, and rather than just watching clips yall add so much to the vid, keep it up!

Warning: this comment is kind of long... sorry about that. Anyway, I have to disagree with this perspective about the reaction stuff. Just because a popular guy reacted to your video doesn't mean your channel is gonna suddenly get popular. It doesn't even mean the video itself is going to do any better. In fact, it might make the video do worse since a lot of people might end up watching the popular guy's reaction video instead of the original video itself, especially if the former is practically identical to the latter. A lot of views (and the revenue that comes from it) that could have gone to the original creator (they guy who put in all of the time and effort) instead goes to the popular youtuber who did nothing but sit there and eat his chicken nuggets (if he was even there at all). When it comes to brand deals, those are cooperative efforts. It's essentially a trade. One side pays the other to present their brand, and their brand gets promoted in return. Both sides benefit, and both sides consented to the deal. With react content (specifically those like xQc's) it's honestly more like theft. One side takes the work of another, presents it to their audience (getting profit from their views) without transforming the content, crediting the creator, and/or getting consent from them. The most the other side gets is a potential benefit. Not a guaranteed profit. A potential, theoretical benefit that you can't even prove without confirmation from the creator himself. Also, if you don't have anything to say about the video your watching, whether it be out of unfamiliarity with the topic or otherwise, then don't stream it. Just don't stream it. It's as simple as that. Stream something else. Stream something that you actually have knowledge on or that you have something to say about. Something you can actually transform. And you ESPECIALLY shouldn't stream a random person's video when you aren't even there! If you have to leave, for whatever reason, put on one of your own videos, or a compilation of your best moments. You could even try making a cool 'Be Right Back' screen. Also, also, to address Tyler's response to Neo's tweet with the graph, I have to say that his argument is kind of... weak. Neo never suggested that xQc's stream would have decreased his viewership. He was only countering the argument that it would have increased it. Tyler's response is to an argument that Neo didn't even make. Strawman or whataboutism, take your pick, but it's not a good counter to Neo's tweet. My main point is that it's just unethical in general to take someone else's work without adding anything to it (especially without consent). Even if it did bolster the original video and the creator, it's not a guaranteed result. Just because one guy got a bump (however much it may be), does not mean the same will be true every time this happens. It's not consistent, and it's not a good excuse for online theft. Now, I'm not saying that ALL reaction videos are theft. In fact, this conversation can easily be avoided if the reaction content in question is actually transformative. If it actually adds something to original. If it brings insight, commentary, or even debate. Be transformative (and credit the original creator), and you won't have this problem. It's that simple. Fortunately, I feel that this channel succeeds in doing that, at least to a greater extent than morons like xQc and Hasan. Of course, that might be because you guys react more to 10 second memes than you do to hour-long documentaries on the JFK assassination. But, yet again, you guys would still probably be better at that than xQc or Hasan. P.S., sorry for the long comment. I just felt like getting this out there. If anyone actually read that wall of text, and enjoyed doing so, I suggest checking out the podcast "Every Frame A Pause" (or EFAP for short). They mostly talk about movies, tv shows, and video games, but they have a few episodes discussing Hasan, xQc, and the debate over react content, and they do it with a lot more coherency than how I just did it. Fair warning, though, their podcasts tend to get... long (it's kind of their brand).

Nogla and Terroriser are my favourite of the whole crew. Just the polar opposite personalities but still being such good fans. Also, the fact that they're Irish is just the cherry on top. Because I grew up watching them, I am able to understand Irish people.

It's crazy how that guy says that, when it's literally us who makes this a miserable world.

I personal believe that react content is fine as long as you properly credit the video. I do find it scummy when react channels blur out the @ handle on TikTok videos

Love you guys from Egypt 🇪🇬!

The best part about Nogla comparing the parrot to his daughter is that parrots supposedly have similar intelligence to a toddler lol

9:03 Thank you for making this statement. Too many people buy birds (especially bigger birds) thinking its all fun and games bc they see their cuddly side on the internet, and not the cost, destructiveness, loudness or the behaviour problems, to name a few, that come with owning a bird. People forget birds are flying toddlers - that includes the temper tantrums!

DarkViperAU has actual good points on the react topic, you guys should watch the series he made, maybe react but give your thoughts and transform it but overall i strongly agree that the main issue with react channels like xqc and hasan is that their audience isnt gonna go to youtube to watch more cause they can watch videos that the streamer plays and the streamer is live for 6+ hours at a time

Died inside when Nogla called Silent hill resident evil

Your channel is the only one that I don't skip the sponsored content bc its too funny

Let's gooo!! I was cheering Brine on at the end there, and he was so proud of himself lmao

xqc didn't do shit for that video, watching it on his stream and leaving the room or barely reacting does nothing but make it a substitute for the video while taking the views, no one's gonna watch a video in full on xqc's stream and watch it again right after, actually makes me kinda sad Brian admits to watching videos on stream to fill dead air, do something creative make games viewers can play with points, play a reel of Brian highlights just anything that isn't outright theft

16:05 but brian usually gets triggered whn he sees a hate comment about him on vanoss's channel tho lol

The b.s paid in exposure excuse. I bet you guys think that unpaid internships are ok because you get paid in experience right?

One of my metrics for if I take someone serious or not is if they think we didn't go to the moon.

Lmao you know it’s fake when Mr.Nogla eats green vegetables.. I remember he hates them and would rather eat candy instead 😂😂 1:26

As a person who works at a candy warehouse, I’ve seen some sweets I’ve never came across at stores. So nogla, if you need some sweets let me know 😉. Brian too, we have Welch’s fruit snacks

I'm not going to pretend I know enough to claim to be an expert on the subject, although I do have a distaste for those that leech off others. So with reaction content there's a right way to meaningfully add to someone else's work and change it in a way that doesn't outright make a market substitute of said video on KZfaq then yeah it should be fine (like reacting to things that could be watched multiple times like memes or music videos). However, the problem arises when people (xqc, hasan, etc.) watch tons of original videos a day without adding enough meaningful commentary to make something that isn't a market substitute that end up flooding the yt market leeching off the hard work of others. It's not the biggest injustice in the world but it's just scummy that people will do nothing but take the work of others to line their pockets. 🤷‍♂

*Stares judgingly in Dragonborn after referring the mighty Paarthurnax as the "Dragon from Skyrim"

I remember my aunt gave my grandma her cockatoo and the bird would repeat entire arguments my aunt had with her husband. My dad used to text my aunt her entire argument that was being said by the bird 😂

Yes, the Irish gentlemen who we watch tell stories and see funny internet shorts. I tip my monocle from my tea for ye

While i would just watching the most recent EFAP on this xQc drama i would loke to summerise one part from it: Much of his chat would complain when he puased the video becuase they were actually watching the video and didnt want it to be transformed in any way. So if xQc just stopped the video half way though there would have been a huge viewer bump as people left xQc to watch the video to finish. Anyone who complains about a streamer pausing is an idiot who doesnt understand the basics of fair use or why they are even able to watch the video somewhere besides its source.

I’m glad you guys are starting to get more and more monetized videos on this channel

21:54 **me watching this while creating my 10th fallout 4 character** also the phrase “it doesn’t change the way i shit and piss” is amazing

The pokemon move is false swipe. I personally put it on my Hawlucha :)
