Okay, I got the advice I realized I needed. Now, please use this as a general advice topic, where if you need advice, you post here, and anyone who quotes your post is giving you advice.
This will sound cold and harsh, but you can only help yourself. Our understandings and views of the world shape the fibers we ambiently grasp as we make what we feel are the right choices. Only in understanding how those fibers are interconnected can we make better choices.
Even if you do find yourself in some dark pit somewhere, huddled into a ball, sobbing and yelling for help. Even if someone does come along and drag you out. What has really changed? What have you really even done? And have you even left at all? Or is some part of you still there. Still crying. Still a bloodied husk at the bottom of some dark...dark...dark hole.
Grasp reality with your own hands. No one is coming to truly save you but yourself.

What the heck? Okay, I know what you said, but I don't know what to do! That's why people ask for advice! So stop your psychological nonsense and get the heck out!

If you spend your whole life kicking out any degree of contradiction or help you don't like, you're going to stay right where you stand.
Cherry pick all you like, see where it gets you.
My buds on Xbox Live won't play video games with me.
Everyone on YouTube hates my videos (reason I took 'em all down)
I have no idea what to do...
PLEASE! HELP ME!!!!
I personally recommend doing what I do when my arthropods do something I don't like; examine your husbandry. My centipede spent all his time burrowing, because I didn't give him/her hiding places. Your viewers may not like you if your voice is annoying, your microphone is bad, the games you play are meh/overused/unpopular, or your commentary sucks. In other words, if you're a 6 year old playing Minecraft and CoD at 3fps with a terribad computer mic, all the while recording the game via your iPhone/Android's camera, than it won't matter how many videos you produce. Anyways, I added a flat piece of wood, two jar tops, and lowered the heat and my centipede is much healthier. I recommend you practice commentary, research what games people like, and invest in a better microphone, and tag, name, and thumbnail your videos properly. If those aren't your problems, than I don't really know what you can do.
You should find out why people hate your videos and why they don't want to play with you on the xbox. If you found that out, then it might help you change youself so people will like your videos more and actually want to play with you on xbox. Besides, there is always someone who is going to hate you and everything you do so don't take it personally.

For the first problem: Try and figure out why they aren't playing with you. If they still won't, find some new friends.
Second one problem: If you really wanted to do the whole youtube thing, you wouldn't care if people didn't like them. There's always going to be people who don't like your videos. If none of it worked, get over it. Those are minor problems. It's not like your life will be ruined.

Not trying to be mean here, but maybe your friends aren't playing with you because you snap at them, like you did to Ace here?
That's very good advice! I was hoping this would be like this :3
Haha, this is good. Hates on the rather pessimistic but more useful and thought out comment, and then responds and likes the airheaded but still somewhat useful one! Take it from both sides, man. Acetyl's not trying to be mean, he's genuinely providing advice. Like you asked for.
Edit: Here, I'll try and help you too, because I'm try not to be as harsh as that comment sounded.
Make some friends outside of the internet/video games. I know that's what we're all into, but if you can connect with people face-to-face, I find that it's much more fulfilling. Ultimately, of course, this shouldn't be your life focus, but real friends can help provide good advice in a way that anonymous and gaming friends or forums never could.

Is this why you have no friends?
My advice is to get feedback on your videos and answers from your friends instead of posting your woes on some forum. I realize that this sounds harsh, but from your earlier comments to Acetyl and pinballboy7, it sounds like you already know what you want to hear and will reject anything else. Both had decent advice but you gotta open your ears to all of it.

These people are friends with me at school. I know them. They aren't anonymous, and it's not my life focus. For example, YouTube. Even though they say "It doesn't matter if people don't like your vids," it still hurts. Besides, this isn't just one or two people, this is almost anyone. Plus...

Okay, I get what you're saying. But the thing is, I record Minecraft with DxTory (the trial, my dad still hasn't bought it) at about 60 fps, using my webcam's microphone (with the TV turned all the way down) and before this, I used the bandicam trial. BANDICAM'S TRIAL IS WHAT SUCKED, BECAUSE I COULDN'T RECORD MY VOICE. That's what annoyed them.
I only snap at people I don't like. My friends? I don't snap at them. Then again, my last name IS Snapp! THAT MUST EXPLAIN IT... DERP :3

Is it in HD? I don't think I can judge the quality of your webcam's microphone in less I have a video sample. Minecraft is an ultra-generic, hyper-overused game: nobody wants to see anyone play that. Is your commentary any good? How many views were you getting? Would your voice be considered annoying? Are you any good at the games you play?
Also I just noticed you used Comic Sans in the OP. Never. Use. It. Again.

Correction: EVERYONE wants to see Minecraft. AntVenom only does Minecraft, and he has over a million subs!
Also, I do good commentary (unless my little sister distracts me). I'm very good at Minecraft as well.

Not trying to be harsh here, but not everyone will want to watch every Minecraft video. They watch Antvenom, Sky and people like that because they're well known, funny and whatnot. Minecraft is overdone and alot of lets plays of it are pretty much 100% the same. In the end it's your channel, do what you want with it. But if you're only doing youtube in the hopes of getting fame, it's going to most likely be a bad outcome, making videos for fun is the way to go, in my opinion at least.

People don't like you, so what? Make them like you.
I messed that comment up completely. I'm not gonna fix it, because
1) It's my 100th Comment
2) I forget what it's about
3) You might get what I mean
