Could this be the Locals V2.0

I'm not -officially- calling it the Locals v2.0, but I feel this could become so. It won't be as high a quality as the Locals was, but hopefully during my recordings we can capture some more quality gold. :D

I'd be on board this if there was plans for improvement

We're still dealing with the radioactive fallout in the form of teenagers trying to be cool on tf4 in the hope of getting on The Locals. I have very mixed feelings about this.

Right, maybe we won't 'call' it the locals v2.0. I'll just call it something else, maybe:
-Theme of Video- on J2.to

Like this one would have been:
Karma on joe.to

Why don't you guys come up with some names as well, this is a community thing.
And, if any of you want to send me clips from your gameplay I'll edit them into videos. Send me enough content and maybe I can do an entire episode around it. Just know that until I feel more acustomed to making videos on a regular basis, I'll only be using the stock Windows Movie Maker to edit my videos. Don't want to spend a good 30-40 dollars on a video editor unless I know I'm going to be using it on nearly a daily basis.

I feel like there's a lot of potential here, there is definitely enough material as well. If you really want to make this stand out from a normal gameplay video, I suggest you utilize the SourceTV and demo recordings to allow some shots from different viewpoints. Also, it would be good to edit out parts and condense things. Take a look at some of Parasyte's videos as examples.

Yeah, this is too much like a let's play. Needs shorter cilps, and multiple angles to really make it a lot better.

Nailed it on the head. I was also going to reference parasite's videos for length and editing as well. As it stands now, it feels like the JohnnyG show featuring JohnnyG and also j2 I guess

Johnie I'd recommend doing something besides copying Stabby's work. Your creative you have video tapped stuff to use but dont be restricted by what Stabby has done. Think out side of the Local Box so to say.

A second Locals sounds like a bad idea. Plus, when it comes to showing highlights on the server, Parasyte's got that covered.

While the Locals brought attention to the server, it wasn't exactly the attention I'm assuming you guys were looking for. It is true that I came here because I watched the locals, but I stayed for the people. You guys may be filthy fucks, but you're my filthy fucks!

Last thing we need are a bunch of squeakers joining the server and raping our ears with quotes anyhow.

Maybe.

His videos are usually from his perspective. It'd be nice to see videos from other players.

Somewhat. Lots of fun people stayed.

Open community. Anyone should be able to play here, as long as they follow the rules.
and raping our ears with quotes anyhow.
That could be fixed easily. /mute

While OP's video is just a game play video (looks like a stream or something), I think it's pretty neat he's taking the time to record and edit videos.
