I was kind of hoping it would be like @TudyBOT was.

I was kind of hoping it would be like @TudyBOT was.

Not this deal but there actually is/was a BYC YouTube channel.
It was started several years ago but I don't think it took off like they hoped. Haven't heard anything about it in the last couple years.

Me too. This was kinda disappointing.

I do have some "intellectual property" I could loan BYC for next year though.

It's better if BYC users have channels instead. Having a forum have a youtube thing is a little weird in my opinion. I usually avoid youtube channels for businesses as well (and BYC is actually a business.)
