Running behind again

If something is happening continuously, it by definition becomes the norm, and thus not worthy of being mentioned.

Most people who form your fanbase have been operating on Ross Time for more than a decade.

I'll take Ross Time over Valve Time any day of the week.

don't the video chats ever get boring for ppl?

i don't watch them cuz i don't see the point, and i'm not sure what's the appeal

They are literally called “monthly chats with FANS”. If you find them “boring”, then the question is, what are you doing on this website.

hell, this is how i feel about these 5 hour long videos, whenever i stumble on them xD

Having timestamps in the description for each question is a huge help to fix that problem. That way you can watch the part that pertains to you exclusively, and skip the stuff that bores you. Youtube even includes a way to incorporate them into the progress bar so you can easily skip head to the next section.

ehh sometimes you gotta know, when to trim the fat

Sometimes people actually want to hear that "fat" as you call it. Sometimes it's exactly what people are looking to hear about. Hence why timestamps are beneficial.

i don't know man, five hours tho?

I literally just told you how to skip out on 4 hours and 50 minutes of it, and you're still complaining about it being 5 hours long?

This stuff is just meant as a proof of life that I'm still working on things.  I agree it's not as interesting, that's why I make the old chats unlisted.  More real videos coming!

don't the video chats ever get boring for ppl?

i work in a factory for forty hours a week and would much rather hear Ross answer questions all day long and engage myself in what the fans are talking about than hear whirring fans, conveyor belts and rubber bumping around. If i listened to only THAT id have to go through an existential crisis after being alone with my thoughts for too long.
