I flagged it because I donāt want one cent going to the idiots that made that video.

Thatās a good point. Did that video have advertisements?
@TheWonderful90s Are you going to remove your flagged post or just wait for the Moderators to do it ?

Weāll join the club. Hard to tell what upsets people sometimes. I mention a true email I got and got flagged.
Personally though I find the loud music more offensive than smoke. I rarely is air conditioning so have the window open
Any time you click on a Youtube, you contribute to whoever posted it, if theyāre at the point of earning money through Youtube. Those yokels might not be, but who knows.
Wh cares? You reposted it and therefore spread it. Way to go, spanky.

I do not feel that it is legitimate to automatically āflagā any link to a YouTube video as āspamā on the theory that the forum memberāor perhaps some unknown entity which created the video āmayā be making money. The bottom line is that the overwhelming majority of YouTube videos are posted for entertainment purposes only, do not generate a penny of commission for the creator, and that linking to a video which depicts the very subject of a discussion thread is by definition not āspamā.
I think the people here need to lighten up. Unless there is clear evidence that TheWonderful90s is somehow connected or affiliated with whoever posted the YouTube video, it is by definition not āspamā. Also, although I cannot stand the lifted trucks, and people who belch black exhaust fumes, I still thought the video was funny in a cheesy sort of way.

You would not feel that way if the action had been directed at you or someone in your family . I donāt think anyone flagged it as Spam . It could also be perceived as assult .

And then they go and post the video/evidence of them doing it.

Well, I can flag anything I want, itās up to the moderators to decide what to do about it. My flag doesnāt remove the post. I donāt take flagging lightly, and I didnāt flag it as spam, I flagged it as inappropriate. The video (not @TheWonderful90s ) makes light of nasty actions.

Maybe @TheWonderful90s could replace u-tube vdo w/just a photo, jpg. Very unlikely Iād click on that anyway.
Gee, maybe think the whole thing was staged? Every day I see a bikini clad girl walking down the street answering to some guy in a truck-not.
I didnāt know u-tube posters made income when somebody clicked on their utube. hmm ā¦ maybe I should post some u-tubes about my theories ā¦ lol ā¦
Yes, they donāt do totally out of their desire to educate people. Some are well into the tens of thousand of dollars a year. I have some favorites like mr Pete who teaches shop. I never had the chance to learn foundry or machining so I donāt mind them getting paid. Lots of auto repair and body work, and cuttin trees down and so on. Itās a great source except for their policies. Same thing as here.
Yes lots of youtube videos are staged. That one is a decade old now. Itās just showing what the rolling coal thing is all about. To look cool and annoy people. If thatās offensive, then maybe this entire thread should be removed.
