Cheater Montage
If this doesn't make sense to you, watch my other video.
I cheated to get this video on the front page... I'm admitting to cheating here because I'm just trying to get the message out and maybe get some response from youtube... are they aware of the problem? is it going to be fixed?
no, I don't think this video deserves to be on the front page... unlike most of the cheaters, I don't think I'm special.. I don't think I'm better than everyone... and I care about getting quality videos the attention they deserve not shamelessly promoting my own half assed mediocre video.
just to clarify because some people still don't get it... I'm not passing judgement on anyones content... I have opinions about it, but that's not what's important... what's "important" is that these people are abusing the system in order to get views/comments/traffic for their videos that they didn't earn by making a good video... all they did was exploit youtube.. If the entire top 20 was anime videos and bad lip syncing... I wouldn't care as long as all 20 had ratings turned on and had gotten there honestly... I think the vast majority of people here understand this...
How youtube can fix the current problems:
1) Only show videos with ratings turned ON in the Top Rated area.
2) One rating vote per user per video.
3) Put a short time limit between video comments.
4) One "flag" operation per user per video.
5) Find some way to limit the number of "views" one person/computer can give to any video.. that's a hard one and I'm not sure how it can be done.
those changes, I think, would make it far too time consuming to attempt to cheat in any meaningful way on a video.
BYC turned on the ratings for his hello kitty song shown in this video... thanks BYC.
Yes, yes, yes... I know there are bigger issues in the world today... Yes, I know there are people violating copyright laws on youtube... debatably, including this video... that's not what this is about... I just want a fucking bug fix for youtube that stops people from locking down their rating forever... that's all.
I've had several emails asking what the song in this video is... I though everyone in the free world had heard it before... It's "Asshole" by Denis Leary... it's available on iTunes... thanks for watching!
