Clenting is a term when a Youtuber is performing poorly (low views and low payment) in a month. The origin if the word Clenting is when user, FinalChidori57 whose real name is Clent began getting very poor views for almost a whole year consecutively and constantly receives low pays by his network. It became a humor within his posse, but later the term got across other groups within the
gaming community of Youtube and it became a popular term used whenever a Youtube gets very poor views it's laughable. If a state of clenting, it's the lowest point you can be and you got to step up your
Youtube game.
Note: This is a term used exclusively in the
Gaming Community of Youtube, and those who are partnered under a Network. (TheGameStation, Machinima, TGN, Curse, Vultra etc.) Usually the term is not used within those that are not partnered as they don't monetize their views.
Jamal: Yo, I got 1M views for this month. I'm
definitely caking with this new Naruto game.
Andre: Nah bro, I'm clenting this month. I only got 10k this month...
it's not even funny. Gotta step
up my game. Got some bills to pay.
