    Every youtuber you see play on a server is paid. Anyone averaging 100k+ views is getting pain ~100 a video + ad revenue.

    Don't try proving me wrong, I've contacted many youtubers and that's the going rate. Better think twice about a youtuber and how much they praise a server :p

    It’s not really greed. It’s just how it is. Even in real life. Websites can charge for an advertising spot, people pay radio stations for ads. Even job seeker websites charge for companies and businesses to advertise.

    But the success of the advertisement comes down to the server. If it’s not what people want then it’s not going to be played on.

    As I said before, what kind of servers are popular and trending? Hub servers, minigames and custom servers that are unique.
    Skyblock needs to join this trend to capture the attention of new players and give old players something to do.

    I've got to agree with Krissy. I believe Mineverse (owned by the same people as skyblock) has paid a few youtubers in the past. I think the new skyblock server will be a huge success, as its unique.

    If you look at huge youtubers who game a lot like TheDiamondMinecart, and such, they advertised big servers, which got a lot of people playing those servers.

    I believe the plan fell through, after the youtuber came on the server to see it before recording it. Not 100% sure. I'm pretty sure it was "TheBajanCanadian" that was the youtuber paid. Either way, one video is not going to gain many active players, though a few might come.

    Hm, minigame servers are defintley the definition of multiplayer minecraft, looks like the skyblock genre has died down as it is

    Nah, seeing a lot of people asking "how do you play this server" or "how do you get such and such items" I'd say it is still going kinda popular

    1. Minecraft is literally a meme
    2. Skyblock has been played by like everyone so there’s not much more growth that can happen.

    Bwhahahah so damn true homie. I dont like mc im general. I'v played too much single player and multiplayer (on the big servers). Id rather stay in this small community where people are a lot older than other mv servers :p
