Well, if it really is as simple as that (watch an interesting video and get a code) then kudos to WG! :-)

This is the first video in the "YouTube Premiere" format on our channel. YouTube Premiere — is a new way of communication with our community, towing the line between live streams and traditional videos. 
Leading up to the release of video there will be a count down timer and when video goes live, you can chat with other viewers who will all be watching the video in real-time, like on livestream!  After you click the bell, you'll get two tune-in notifications — one around 30 minutes before the premiere, and another one with the start. 
Watch a marathon in a new format, similar to movie premiere. Chat, subscribe to our channel, and click the bell so as not to miss the start of the cinemarathon!

way too alienating.

Re watching old videos is a wonderful idea for people that are on WC doing "private" things

 

If you really want to get views get back Alena and do some proper videos :)

I'm sorry, but if the choice is between dying of covid19 and getting a cat and a mac, I absolutely and unreservedly choose covid19. No contest.

Now this has me curious. Is this an aliens joke or do you actually mean you cannot relate to the post?

I had to check an English thesaurus, and I agree that my use of the word "alienation" wasn't very clear.

I mean "a sense of being controlled and/or exploited" - that meaning is derived from Marxist theory, which is evidently taught more in certain parts of the world than others!

 

I hate (most) videos for that reason. They rob me of time and of the ability to multitask, and I can't search a video for the relevant parts either as I do with text documents.

Videos confer information way too slowly (in the days of flight travel without on board entertainment, I read 250 page books in about 4-6 hours), but if I don't listen to the video, I won't understand it.

It feels like a highway with a very low speed limit. Waste of time.

*of course there are many videos that are very well made and very interesting - but that's another story.

 

The exploitation part is because the reasons I list above are exactly the reasons why advertisers LOVE videos. During videos, their ads/product placements have full access to someone's brain, because there is nothing else to focus on.

So WG would rather have me spend my VALUABLE time watching a video rather than playing the game. How stupid is that?

Oh... you meant that you are under the impression you are being [drastically and vehemently copulated (with)]? Since most thesaurus editors suffer from the same disease the forum software does, i.e. moralistic aphasia, that thwarts a/or omitts words everyone uses and recognizes anyway, even when st*r sp*ngl*d ... (pun intended)... Please allow me to point you to an old  [doubleplusungood poo-word he uses to describe himself] sage who will elucidate the term.

Sry, déformation professionnelle triggered. That's not entirely wrong, just as correct as "the sky is blue because the air is blue and there's 100 km of it above you - so there you see it but not on ground level"... which isn't entirely wrong either, makes it understandable for someone not familiar w/ concepts like Rayleigh scattering, refraction, diffraction, etc.  -- But I'll settle for "that's what many marketeers believe to be true".

Trying to avoid a three page neuroscience rant -> -> all you need to know: once you have become aware of this vector ('method to influence"), as w/ many others, it loses it's efficacy. Entirely if you you occasionally remember to remember yourself of the fact i just stated. Now you probably will ;-> 

[Curious? Search for de-/stereotyping.That's a related effect/technique, but ime easier to grasp for most. I consider remembering and posting things these as mental hygiene ;-> ...like dental mental floss to keep away the rot. ;D  ...and yes, i do seminars + workshops ;;;D].   

 

Happy hunting,

cheers!      ... + santé!

Oh wow! You're sensitive to signal-to-noise ratio just like me!

If I wanted an antisocial and permanently cantankerous hair pump to wake me up with either a gag reflex from the smell of vomit or the dulcet tones on an air raid siren going off in my ear as it stood on my face screeching to be tended IMMEDIATELY, I'd just have children.

The only cats I like are barking cats.

Cat, petrol, match

WOOF
