Fair enough, I guess.

[tehUBERn00blet]

But it lacks most of the defining qualities of a web forum, it's just a list of comments. You don't have people regularly looking up this video in search of a good discussion.

[MiscVideos78rpm]

It acts as a forum all the same. You have your opinion, I have mine.

[tehUBERn00blet]

I never said that you can't. I just said it's silly. And this isn't a forum, it's a video comment page. It's not worth regulating.

[MiscVideos78rpm]

I can see your point, but lots of online forums have rules and community guidelines, even if they are relatively obscure. Why can't I?

[tehUBERn00blet]

Much like how someone could be hurt by watching a video of a presidential debate and realizing how lowly and unsuccessful they are.

There comes a point where such concern is silly. You have children sold into a life of sex slavery, mothers who lose their children to the bombs of a political war, people who suffer terminal illnesses in brutal pain in dread of a closely looming death.

And here you are, placing such significance on the feelings of people who get a rude reply on youtube...

Kennedys generation, yes, but the boomers, not really..they didnt even create the civil rights movement NOR the enviormental movement they were on one level just SEX,DRUGS, AND ROCK AND ROLL --by that time,it was just ROCK.... the 'ROLL' left in the late 60s

[MiscVideos78rpm]

Actually, it is important if people could potentially be hurt by others' rude comments, like the ones I was removing.

[tehUBERn00blet]

Well those people were being very rude and removing comments like that every once in a while isn't totally uncalled for.

But it's not cyberbullying, and it's not important.

[MiscVideos78rpm]

It wasn't just people calling other people stupid. I believe it got to the point of people being extremely racist, spouting out the "n word" and other completely unnecessary and ignorant stuff. It started to become a problem and since I've put the rules in the description, I've seen less ignorant insults.
