BACK TO SCHOOL (8/7/16)

SCHOOL STARTS TOMORROW, GREAT

Let's go ahead and get this stuff out of the way first. This year has been pretty poor for the channel so far. We've scarcely had videos, livestreams have been fun but ultimately the quality is so poor it's hard to enjoy. We've had series start and stop abruptly, poor quality, and all around I've done a pretty horrible job managing the main channel. John and Lukas over at the AverageSoldiers have done a pretty good job so far this year, and it's nice to see them grow and their quality continue to get better. Anyways, let's continue.

WHY HAVEN'T THERE BEEN SO MANY VIDEOS THIS YEAR HAEDEN?

Well, let's be honest, I doubt there's hardly any of you that are actually asking that or that actually care. Investing all of this time and money into the channel hasn't really gotten us anywhere. I've slowly started losing passion for the channel. 3 years ago when we started the network, I wanted to do nothing but make videos that I loved and enjoyed. Now when I'm making a video I realize that hardly anyone will see it, and that my quality is sub-par. It's just been feeling like no one cares about the content I'm creating, and honestly that's discouraging. That and I hardly have time to record anything. Living in a house with three other siblings is difficult, as well as finding time to record with others, due to the fact that I really struggle to make engaging commentary when I'm by myself. Basically, I'm losing passion to create content and I'm struggling to find time to make anything anymore. I'm not ready to give up on the channel yet, but I do want to take some time to collect my thoughts and realize what it is I want to do. The few of you that do keep up with what I produce, all I can say is thank you.

BRUH WHY THE NEWS CHANNEL ALWAYS SO DEAD?

I can hardly run the main channel, I don't know why the NEWS channel even exists honestly. I don't know what I'm going to do with it, but just know that it will most likely not be "OverbyNetworks News" for much longer. Whether I decide to make it a personal channel for all things with the FractionOverby persona or if I decide to do more creative things with it, we'll see. I'm most likely going to private all of the videos besides the New Years Livestream, and try my best to start fresh. Stick around to see what comes next for it.

WELL, WHAT CONTENT ARE WE GOING TO GET?

I'd LOVE to get around to finishing Missing 3, and I think we actually could get it done. I'd love to try to do more livestreams, and I honestly would like to get back to just making content that I enjoy. I personally have been messing around with more art related endeavors and would like to try and get back into some simple animations for the channel. Speaking of animation, I'm hoping to make a Season 5 for Animated sometime soon. It has been a very long time since I've tried drawing the one and only Tim, Adam, and Jimmy, but hopefully I can get back to it sometime soon. It's weird, I started Animated when I started middle school, and now I'm starting high school tomorrow. I've spent a crazy amount of time on this channel and I really appreciate those of you who have stuck around.  I'd like to get back to making Fraction's Fandoms, and possibly switching it from bi-weekly to weekly because they are fun and easy to make. All in all, I just hope to get back to content I love and enjoy making, and I'm hoping you all will follow me as I do. With high school starting, being in a relationship, maintaining real world friendships, and everything in between it may be a lot harder to try and do this.

THANK YOU GUYS FOR READING, AND THANK YOU FOR BEING AROUND AS I'VE TRIED TO MAKE CONTENT. IT MEANS A LOT. SEE YOU LATER -HAEDEN
