morons like you that overanalyze every single loving thing any creator says about anything are why this thread is worth less than the hairs around my rear end in a top hat. i'll go back not not reading or posting in it because it's exhausting.

You being offended by a take that didn't make a hate mob that isn't even relevant to how this thread functions is pretty lol.

Just move on. Like even Neo was just "It could have been just a poor vid." as if that's a serious accusation. Chill

I didn't like their tone when they were talking about the White Island disaster but because I watched it more than two weeks ago I can't tell you any more details than that memory of a feeling. This is the sum of my criticism.

I really wish posters like yourself realized this thread is so toxic mainly because of posts like this. Someone not liking a thing you like isn't an attack on you or whatever. Especially since Crimson's post was pretty chill. Why do you have to instantly jump to "gently caress YOU!!1! :qq:" style posting just because someone didn't like a video you liked? Especially when it was so long ago? lol

this thread is not even *that* toxic, imo, i honestly don't know why people keep complaining about it lol

i mean, there's the spicy, spicy derails and all, but what thread doesn't have them. plus, derails are generally Cool and Good, imo, and the very nature of this thread is fertile ground for derails, and that's fine

as for the poop-flinging, there are plenty of threads even on these very forums that are far, far more, uh, intense. not to mention the rest of the internet

I mean, this thread is fairly bonkers on the reg for a thread that's ostensibly about sharing and discussing videos made by funny and smart YouTube people. But yes, in comparison to even the lower-end batshit sections of SA it is a picture of serene sanity. But for what it is in its stated niche alone and nowhere else, it is a foaming-mouthed rainbow haired rodeo clown shooting off five revolvers that fire roman candles, into the audience, while on fire and screaming incoherently about how much money you can save your mother-in-law by switching to Liberty Mutual. Also a racoon is currently gnawing on its private parts.

I feel as though this thread used to be a fair bit more toxic some years back but has mellowed out as some of the more toxic posters have been threadbanned and the more argumentative ones have mellowed out. Most of the derails here don't usually explode into full-on multiple page arguments and flamewars. MOST of them, anyway. There's plenty of deviations from the subject matter at hand but that's fine.

I mean, I suppose you could say that a lot more Internet video people posted in this thread once upon a time and they've gradually left for various reasons, but I'm not sure how many of those you could put down to the thread and how many are because more folks don't go to forums anymore and have other social media to deal with. Like, the only one I can think of that's directly related to the thread was Lindsay Ellis, partly because of a misunderstanding that SA isn't a private forum anymore and anybody can read it.

This thread did have a pretty strong current of "it's okay to cyberbully creators, especially successful creators" (with the sub-current of "the fact that they have money and/or fame is proof that my flood of harassment is acceptable") for a while. Fortunately, most of that has fallen out of favor as we've all grown. Though I guess we'll see what happens the next time a new Contrapoints video drops...

Max loves just stumbling on the worst poo poo by complete accident and mindlessly reposting it, it's only natural that applies to post histories too!

From earlier this year:

Did you just pull up posts from a person's clearly horrible episode a few months back just to show that, in fact, we are still very much the toxic ones? Did you at any point in this dredge consider that Spark That Bled may well be still reading, and if such was the case would very likely not want a reminder of this?

Max. You often seem to use this thread in a harmful way. You post things and do things that are presented as naivete but are seemingly always going to cause trouble and get poo poo thrown in your direction, which you respond to with pain. It is NOT healthy and I highly recommend you don't do it.
