Guys, I'm sure everyone can agree that getting subscribers is way easier than meeting the 4000 watch hour requirement. I've been uploading consistently, working on retention, thumbnails, and making videos more engaging, but my watch hours don't seem to be moving much at all. Meanwhile, I see some of my other friends in other niches getting monetized much faster and it makes me wonder if I'm missing something?

Honestly the thought of trying to buy YouTube watch hours has been on my mind just to get past that monetization requirement and actually start earning from the content I'm already putting out. Opinions online are all over the place though. Some people say it helped them reach the watch time threshold faster (no idea how true that is), while others say the hours eventually disappeared or ended up causing problems with their channel (which is the part that worries me the most).

Has anyone here actually gone through with it? Did the watch hours hold up, and was your channel fine afterwards? Would really like to hear from people who were in the same spot and what they ended up doing.

After i take damage, during the health recoverable window my weapon disappears, apparently this is known as the "rally system", but the weapon only isnt invisible but it does no damage either. Can anyone help with this. Im on ShadPS4 already spent a few hours setting it up and i tried opening with no patch or mods but the issue still persists!
