Is this fair ? Youtubers vs Bloggers

So guys, I've been thinking a lot about this and it seems very unfair how Youtubers are treated against Bloggers in every aspect. Example : here in the forum we have a special sub forum for Youtubers where they can share their new videos and stuff, but in the other side I own a website (http://clashingtips.com) and share a lot of stuff about Clash of Clans like base designs and strategies, every time i share something here in the forum people attack me for promoting and spamming. Also Clash of Clans Facebook Fan Page a lot of time shares YouTube videos of different YouTubers but completly ignoring us who post about Clash of Clans on our websites.


Now i understand that people love to watch YouTube videos about Clash but i think that they are treated better then we who have websites and make posts about Clash.

In one way this is a petition towards Admins/Mods to make us a dedicated place where we can share our new written posts with the Clash of Clans Community like YouTubers can.

Before replying read this :


What I'm asking is Bloggers Corner.

The pourpose of this thread is to request Admins/Mods/Members to support our work (those who have website) the same way they do for Youtubers/Artists by creating a sub-forum where we can publish our work without being shouted : go away, stop spamming, stop promoting you website, wrong place etc.

You: You are doing this just so you can advertise your website and earn money, nahh I'll use Youtube!
Me: Yes I'm promoting my website, my work and of course I need to have some support for my work. Same for Youtubers, they have a place where to promote their videos and of course they earn something to support their work. It's basically the same.

You: This is useless, i don't visit Clash of Clans websites!
Me: If you don't then someone else does, so please think it again.

You: Why do I need your website when i have the forum!
Me: No game in the world has only one forum where everyone stays. There will always be players/fans like me in this case that will create a website, forums, channel to posts about the game.

If you look at the YouTubers Corner you can see that there are different members who have their own thread where they promote their channel. That's what Im asking for me and in behalf of other people who own website about Clash of Clans.

PS:

If you think that I'm doing this only to promote my website yes you are right but in a dedicated sub forum for websites, but if you think that I'm the only one who owns a website then you are wrong since there a few of members here who own websites about Clash of Clans.

Please leave a reply of what you think about this freely and judge right.

(edited the PS to be more clear about what i mean)

This is promoting your website. Obviously. We aren't dumb. Secondly, I feel like this should be in off topic.

If you weren't trying to promote you website you could easily have left it out?

You don't get it do you, if I would have a dedicated area in this forum where I can promote post of my website then people would have no rights to attack me because I'm posting in that dedicated area not anywhere.

Do you understand it now ?

I checked out your website. It's ok. To be honest it didn't grab my attention like any of the youtubers do.

which leads to my next point, it's not necessarily that Supercell doesn't want to equally promote and monitor all these different media outlets on the forum, but they are probably going with what their customers (the gamers) want. Some of the YouTube content is really good. Videos can do things articles just can't. Not too mention there is a TON of written content on the forums alone which is well laid out and presented (all you need to do is search).

If SC asked me, I'd tell them supporting bloggers isn't on my list of things they should do. How many others would feel the same?

Articles can also do things YouTube videos cannot.

I agree, there should be an area to share your clash of clans articles. After all, if we're on the forums and want to read some clash content, why aren't we just on YouTube if we only care about videos?

because people prefer videos =)

Agreed, but what can a separate Article do elsewhere that the forum can't do? I've seen some pretty awesome guides and posts on the forums complete with videos, pictures and well written content.

...this might lead to a ban......
