Marty, I just finished watching your last live and found it very strange that guys reaction. I love how you let your live chat organically take it off on tangents, ie airbrushing or soldering etc. I think this video Dave has just done was a very thoughtful and positive reaction to what happened on your live, which I think was unfair to you. Keep up the great work, we all enjoy heaps.
@@tonytibbs1974 this comment means more to me than you will ever know. I can’t thank you enough for your support. People like you make it very easy to keep creating. The one thing I always try to be is positive and supportive. I love this community. It has become a wonderful part of my life.
As this is purely my favorite hobby where i go to only seek enjoyment, I tend to stay away from controversy and drama. However, I feel compelled to reach out and let you both know I truly admire your responses to the situation. Thank you for reassuring me the world has not turned upside down (at least in this little part of it, lol!).
Excellent video, Dave. It's fun to participate in chats and always good to try and be helpful. I've always tended to be more of a listener than a talker, but active participation and interaction definitely helps. Always enjoy your work and as always - points well taken. 👍
Good chat Dave. Makes sense. One of the first things I noticed about this community when I started was how nice everyone is. I am very grateful for all the tips and advice I've received over this year. Not to mention all the ppl I've met through this community alone. You are a pillar in this hobby and I appreciate the time and effort that you and other YT creators volunteer into sharing their journeys and advice. Cheers🎉🎉🎉
Great video, I just finished editing..... Joking! 😂😂 Great points to highlight, I agree a lot because, I've filmed myself having crazy fun over a few years with Albert and it transpires some other people also like crazy fun too and subscribed just like you outlined, as my channel grew, I played around with other things like lives it shorts and yes, if you get someone who's overwhelming the live chat comments, it feels like it's your own reputation being dragged into it because it's your chat and you're limited to how distracted you can get 😮. We should learn to live more in the moment and enjoy the community of different facets across the hobby, be involved, people will find your channel. Well put Dave, good chat 💯🔥🔥
I have nothing to add to these comments other than they’re correct and I like that you give a shout out to other channels at the end of your videos. I find myself subscribing to quite a few of them 👍
I share the $hit out of your help videos! lol To be honest your entertaining as all get out! I enjoy getting my favorite beverage and a slot car and working while I listen! Great personality and excellent way of getting your point across!
Most excellent video and advice. You epitomize exactly what you are talking about, and I could not agree more. I do not have a You Tube channel, but I do know what I like and appreciate. Your advice is about the same as mine: We all have the same tool, a brain. Use your tool, don't be a tool. Thank you for saying it. 😁
Decent content, helpful attitude, friendly atmosphere. Those things will get you far. Constantly spamming others chats, over and over with self promotion just puts people off. Great chat Dave.
You’re spot on Dave, community is the key word, and yes be nice, be respectful and post good entertaining and informative content. Your channel has grown so quickly and that’s because you have all these attributes. This community is fantastic and very supportive, I have certainly found that during some difficult times, keep doing what you do my friend!!
Great video Dave! I concur about the community. I am fairly new to the community. Everyone has been great to me. I try to treat folks the way I would want treated myself. Race on!
This is so right, I've found loads of channels and content from reading the chats in various live streams. Haven't seen any needless self promotion, just loads of nice like minded people sharing ideas and opinions.
G'day Dave nice one, this hobby is great and all are welcome even though some people are difficult by nature. I found that some people are very easily misread and get the raw end but like you said if you are nice to everyone what a great place this would be, Anyway have a great one and cheers
Awesome Dave and I think the first video I saw of you was a coffee and a chat and then checked out the rest of your posts and now I look forward to whatever you post. It was the coffee that got me as I enjoy my coffee too. I have been contemplating starting a channel myself but as yet I haven't done anything about it.
Dave, I think you have so many subscribers because you are genuinely a really great guy! Your videos have helped me so many times in my pursuit of slot car fun. Thanks for everything you do. Also, thanks to all the other slot car content makers (many have posted here) you make this hobby more fun just by being online and sharing.
Dave, you overlooked a major factor in the growth of your channel-Mrs. SlotR’s Christmas jokes. I watch a lot of Slot Car videos, many about things I’ll never try like scratch building, because this community has so many really nice people. It was great to see so many of you get together at the Slot Car Festival.
Hi Slot R. Thank you so much for telling us guys how to promote our RU-vid channel. I appreciate the advice. I hope I didn’t shoot myself in the foot because on a live stream a couple of them I mention about my channel and I hope I didn’t turn anybody off by doing that Again. Also, I liked how you showed how to make the guard rails out of speaker wire I’m definitely going to do that. It’s soft enough where I won’t damage the cars and it looks great thank you.
