#8 Ronald Jenkees is like a tradition on Snotr, that being a reason why his song ended up in the video (but I also love his music). Search him on Snotr, we have a few videos from him posted a looong time ago Nice to see that people are still digging Ronald Will put some of his newer videos here soon.

#12 The purpose is to make Snotr more fun

#18 Well it's like this:

Once upon a time........

First there was www.mininova.com, which as far as I know was the best and most popular torrent website in the world at that time, but then it got in a lawsuit with the Dutch organization BREIN, and was forced to remove pretty much everything due to copyright infringement (which was kinda BS, because as probably you know, torrenting websites are not hosting the actual content, everything is done P2P). Since then, Mininova is only hosting shareware/freeware content in order to avoid any further lawsuits.

Mininova also includes www.dispostable.com | www.snotr.com | www.adperium.com

Snotr started as a side project of Mininova. Mininova was an enormous community of users, and Snotr was made to expand Mininova in a fun way, where users can chill and watch neat videos, especially if the Mininova servers were down for maintenance. So with those being said, Snotr was initially populated by the Mininova community. Then Snotr gained popularity over the whole internet, with an astronomical number of visitors per hour (50,000 of unique visitors was something ordinary back in the day, and some videos had even millions of views, hundreds of comments).

As most of you probably have noticed, Snotr's popularity has faded out over the years, there are not as much users as they used to be, but still, Snotr has remained the same welcoming and cozy place foe everyone that steps it's door The drop of the number of Snotr users is due to the fact that websites like YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, etc., have risen at an mind-blowing pace, today becoming giants. A good example would be what happened to Hi5 and MySpace when Facebook got popular.

Part 2



The Snotr website was created by the actual owners who are Erik, Rob, Niek, Jos, Mattijs (which you never get to see them here, because they are very busy with their main projects) Over the years, Snotr had many Admins and Moderators, but all of them became less and less active because some got busy with their personal stuff, some just quit, and now the whole show is run entirely just by me and Sizzlik. We pretty much do all the work, we keep Snotr alive and kicking for you guys.

Many of you asked us, why does Snotr exist? As some already know (some might not), Snotr is entirely non-profit, meaning we do not make any money from it(we dont get paid, we just get a small Christmas bonus), we are doing it voluntary in our personal time, just for the fun of it. The ads on the website are barely making enough money to cover the server costs and the maintenance. So then, why Snotr? Well, that's because Snotr is like a family to us, it's fun, its a great place which is part of our little lives, part of daily routine, its like a tradition in other words. We keep it alive and kickin' for you guys, so you can have a quality time here, and put a smile on your face What is our motivation to keep it going? Your feedback, seeing that you enjoy the work we put in, the fun we have in comments, the new, great and interesting things we discover by you submitting videos.

Well of course, we are not perfect, we are humans too just like any of you, and sometimes we probably did mistakes, we published duplicate videos unintentionally, typos here and there in the titles or in the description, wrong categories, etc.. With those being said, if we mistaken, we're sorry I know some users expect Snotr to be perfect, but it ain't, so it is what it is

So there you have it, the long-story-short of Snotr and the little people behind it.

Again, I want to thank to all of you for everything

So what are you waiting for people? Vote now for Trum.... Uhh I mean your favorite categories

#28 yep, its very cool for me too to also see people in the comments that haven't commented in ages And even more cool to see this thing being welcomed by you guys!

P.S. To get an idea how big Mininova was: it was in the top 100 ranked sites in the USA.

#30 Glad to see you're still here with us!

#32 not really, he said he is around Snotr since the beginning, he just didnt have an account yet

#50 Apparently it got canceled

#60 Props to you for being an awesome contributor to Snotr community

#66 You don't have to keep a track, Snotr does that for you It shows you how many videos you submitted (including the ones that were rejected) on your profile on your achievements. The third Paragraph in the achievements section on your profile shows (only to you) how many videos you have submitted, and the fourth paragraph shows you how many videos you have approved from the ones you have submitted.

Yaay, seems this is my #1000 comment

#73 but still, why not vote with your favorite categories ?
