What? Okay your good at sign language but my friend... Most people will have no clue what you are doing.

Haha - I suppose you're making a fair assumption but my dear friend you'd be suprised if I said around 60,000 in the UK are BSL (British Sign Language) users (and much more who knows the lingo including users of New Zealand Sign language and Auslan which is part of the same family known as BANZSL). I feel that 'most' people who do not understand it is not an issue for me. Perhaps you'll give BSL a go? :-)

Haha - you think 60,000 is a lot! Do you know what percentage of the UK that is? I'll tell you - 0.09% And that's not to mention the worldwide audience that YouTube attracts.

[dazissimo]

And 0.09 percent you think is not worth the effort? I detest your attitude.

[chrisgrainger]

No I didn't say that, but your rebut towards the first poster was based around 60,000 being a lot of people. As I was pointing out - it is not - therefore the first poster was right about most people not understanding your post. I for one would like to understand what you had to say. And the "Haha" was mirroring the way you answered the first poster. It was a fair point.

[pastadenialist]

Well, there's got to be a cut off somewhere would you not agree? I'm not saying I agree with the original poster but if only 100 people spoke some language I do, I doubt it would be worth my time.

I know most of the alphabet... hello... you... god, jesus... and that's pretty much it. What did it all mean? =]
