This discussion is to talk about the new Hobbyist and the future of Mainstream media. I don't know how many New people in this hobby are going to read this. But what's to come in the future in this hobby? I know people hate mainstream media, but this hobby is starting to turn towards this route (Hate to admit it).
The biggest issue people are having is the huge number of newcomers into this hobby. And how the "Internet Idols" of this hobby are influencing them. What do you think of this, and how good or bad is it going to affect the Future T. hobby and hobbyist? What solutions can help with this issue?
My (not-so-helpful) Solution
I personally think that if their are more experienced (years of experience) T. keepers on Youtube or something, it would help a lot. And the issue regarding "Internet Idols" is that a majority of them are "unrealistic" (fight me). The issue all of these idols have is that they make it all rainbows and paradise with a "idealistic" vision of how they see the hobby. Realistically and ironically, while I do make comedy skits of this hobby that is for comedic and learning purposes(oxymoron I am ). Even I know that educational/entertainment T. idols should be more "logically realistic" and not idealistic on the views of this hobby. It's just probably me, but it gives the wrong mindset to them.
