Smokey, I have endured the like myself. That is to say, I have been irritated by ignorant people who post their insults and their moronic comments below Youtube videos.

Briefly.

I was tempted to make sarcastic and witty comments at those poster's expense on a few of those Youtube videos...and I had some fun doing so. You can tell immediately by the response you will sometimes get from those lads that they are entirely unaccustomed to subtle humour, but they do usually get the drift eventually that they are being made sport of and not taken seriously in the least. That really bothers them. ;-) They hurl more insults, to which I reply in a completely tongue in cheek manner, using BIG words to further confuse them, and I get a few laughs out of it. Therefore I have occasionally amused myself at the expense of various obscene and very ignorant lunkheads who post nasty stuff on Youtube. It was quite satisfying! ;-)

Other than that, however, how much of my time do I really want to devote toward getting upset over such a phenomenon? Not much. It would get in the way of doing much more enjoyable stuff...like posting on this thread, for example, or reading a good book, playing my guitar, doing my daily work, etc...

And my getting upset over a hundred thousand or more ignorant Internet yahoos will not in any way prevent them from continuing to be ignorant Internet Yahoos, and I know it.

Therefore I give it very little of my time, except when it momentarily amuses me to do so...which happens occasionally when I'm looking at stuff on Youtube.

We can rave all we want on Mudcat Cafe about indecency on Youtube....it won't change the way Youtube is managed...but if anyone here seriously thinks that he can persuade the owners of Google to alter Youtube in such a way as to prevent such indecency from occurring in future, then I guess he should get busy and contact them.

So get right on it, you who will not practice forbearance in the face of Internet indecency. ;-) Do not delay! Contact the owners of Google RIGHT NOW and give them an earful. Raise bloody hell about it. Go ballistic. And I wish you luck with that.
