Why do the KYM episodes on Youtube have those damn ads?

ROCKETBOOM is part of the YouTube partnership program. In a nutshell, when a video gets a certain number of views, the poster of said video is allowed to join the YouTube partnership program. This means YouTube will place advertisements in and around the video to bring in ad revenue. A portion of the money earned in this manner is given to the user/organization.
More money for ROCKETBOOM=more money to pay for the staff members, which include those here at KYM.

And we need the money.

I guess it can't be helped.

I hate YouTube ads, though.
Nobody ever clicks on them.

I go out of my way NOT to buy products featured in annoying ads.

Same here

i just clicked on KYM's boxxy video 43 times

OK, why?

He's redspear. That's why.

So they could get more money.

That's nice of you.
It's time to click some ads!
