YTMD Pet Peeves

[Cgl33]

I'm pretty sure everytime I quote, I do it wrong. Whoops. I try to break up the long quote tree, but I end up deleting something. The problem is that I'm almost always on mobile but not on the app. Didn't think to just tag the person. I'll do that from now on.

Is 32 old?

It's honestly not a huge deal! It happens. I've messed up quotes plenty of times... It can be frustrating for readers but I don't think it's hard to decipher the difference if you've read the previous posts. I prefer a major quote tree fail over tagging simply because I don't always read the usernames and wouldn't know what that user said. At least if you quote, I know what content you're referring to!

There is a tutorial here that may help with quotes: http://ytmommadrama.com/viewtopic.php?f=139&t=8750

PS 32 is not old!

I probably quote wrong too, I have been on this site FOREVER and still don't do it right lol, I am older than you Cgl33 so I don't consider that old
Thanks Krypto for the tutorial

The amount of reaching people are doing just to have something to talk about. I miss this site 2 years ago.

Good grief yes

I enjoy the conspiracy theories, but not when posters exaggerate actual situations.

^ I wasn't here two years ago so I don't know what it was like back then but I cringe at some of the outlandish speculation now. My problem with it is that we know vloggers read here and while we make a lot of legitimate points that I think vloggers need to consider, I don't think any of them would take us seriously with all the crazy speculation mixed in. It just reinforces stereotypes that we are all crazy ladies over here when that isn't the case.

Another think that bothers me is when people assume what they are speculating is absolutely true and people get so wrapped up in it that suddenly it becomes a "fact" for the board. I prefer to say things like "I think this.." "It seems like this...to me" "in my opinion..." But some people come in and lay down their speculation as fact by saying "So and so IS xyz" "I know for a fact that..." And then they'll argue with anyone that disagrees until their thought becomes an accepted fact or truth about whatever family on the thread and people forget what is real and what we sort of made up here. Sorry for the rant, I just can totally see us all being labeled as crazies when when there is still a lot of legitimate stuff here brought up...I can just imagine vloggers getting quite the kick out of some of the stuff on here.

People who post something as "fact" from another gossip website/blog and then people run with it like it's actually a thing with (so far) 0 confirmation. Examples: Jessica's supposed "leaked" baby names, stuff posted about Bryan and Missy on a cheaters website, etc. etc. etc.

HAHAHA I'm the queen of triple posting the same things, especially in GG threads. But I never post again saying "oops!"
People just know it's the website/app. I HATE when people comment "idk why that posted three times!"

I think I was guilty of that before, but I try not to now. I just feel so stupid when it double posts. I forget that everyone knows it's a buggy website.

The constant comparing of children.

"Well MY kid crawled/walked at this age. So and so is BEHIND".

No...all kids develop at their own pace. Now I do agree that Ollie is behind in speech and all that, but there's a lot of comparing going on lately.

i agree. i feel like people are just using any chance they can to brag about something or other these days.

Why does seem to be a cyclical issue on the DB thread?

I've noticed. I just scroll past it but it's a little annoying at times

My child cooked gourmet meals and recited Hamlet's Soliloquy at 5 months. So (insert vlogger child name) is definitely behind.

The hypocrisy regarding inappropriate content seriously astounds me.. You don't get to give one Vlogger a pass. and notify the mods when it is being discussed on a thread on which you are a super fan, yet go on another thread and say that they are sick how they should be reported. WTF?!

[actuallydear]

Care to elaborate, @saltliferocks?

Whoa. Is this directed at my agreement that Austin is sick?

I said Bonnie (and other vloggers that show naked baby bottoms) was possibly ignorant of the risk so I'm not quick to say she's perverse and intentionally exploiting her children. Austin intentionally showing footage of his 4 year old daughter's panties, or her naked in the background isn't ignorance IMO. That's intentional. He harps on about her safety on social media all the time because of her skin and gender. He KNOWS the risk.

You have a very strong opinion about this. You do realize most YTers have shown baby footage at some point right? They aren't all perverts. Some are just idiots that don't think properly.

[saltliferocks]

I do feel very strongly about protecting children. That wasn't my point. My point was that you don't get to censor one thread because you are a super fan, and then go into another thread a slam another youtuber for being creepy about essentially the same thing. (I'm not debating that Austin Null is in his own lane of disgust)
I usually agree with you, and you know that I was one of your biggest defenders when you were nearly voted off the board a few months ago. However, you don't get to have it both ways.
And, although I have lost a lot of respect for Bonnie, I actually like her.
