I mean, you meet all the requirements, don't you?

i don't think Shane should become a youtube partner IMO.
i just can't take youtube partners and their videos as seriously.

Apparently not; they turned me down saying I wasn't a "fit" for their content. I'm wondering how The Amazing Atheist (who's great, BTW) makes partner when all he does is rant into the camera, and I'm using ChromaKey and CGI and other things trying to make quality productions.

I think it's probably based on the mood of whoever's making the evaluation at the time.

YouTube will only partner a channel if they believe it will be profitable enough for them.

That's what I'm thinking. TAA gets WAY more views than I do. That's the only reason I can think of for them to partner him and not me.

Okay, then let me rephrase the question: Why are you not more popular?

Oddly enough... I had asked why the JREF's YouTube account wasn't partnered with their non-profit program. The person running the account claimed they turned them down.

I'm not sure when they applied... But I fail to see how they can turn the JREF down with the subscribers they have... and also, the 15k views per video the "Randi Speaks" videos are getting.

The ways of YouTube are mysterious and enigmatic.
