i'm sick and tired of clicking into a thread only to discover that there's no content at all, just a fricking link to a youtube clip. this style of posting enrages me. if the poster would simply put "youtube link" in the topic summary, or even "video inside", then maybe i wouldn't be duped into thinking the thread actually contains content.
i'm not asking for anything to be done about it, i'm just venting. how people can start a new thread with just a damn link and nothing else is beyond me. you'd have to think they feel a bit strange after hitting "post message". i know i would.
aside from that, there are just too many damn youtube threads. obviously there would never be a youtube subforum, that is ridiculous. all i'm asking is that the youtube kids try to warn the members that actually know how / remember how to read to give us a head's up of sorts. if you post youtube links and nothing else in your thread in the near future, expect me to post in your thread bitching about it.
that's all i got.
Since this is rant and you actually said you not asking anything to be done about it, I'll lock it. I did try to help but I guess you weren't serious with your response to my post.
