What I think this board needs is ...

[hex1848]

Spamming this board with endless "youtube" video links is stupid and pointless especially when those videos contain highly offensive content.

And if Sid keeps doing it, I will continue to raise the point. When Sid acts like an asshole like he did here with chefchris, I'll also continue to call a spade a spade and I quite frankly don't care if it was yesterday or two months ago.

Bill, it was a joke. Take it as such and move on. You are really testing my patience with this one. Everything had died down, everyone was happy and you start attacking someone for a comment he made 2 months ago??

Enough is enough.

You call the video with the repeated references to "faggots" a "joke?" Sorry Hex, I don't think it's "funny" at all, it's just as offensive as the "n" word.

I hardly call this post by Sid a "joke" either:

i seem to have struck a nerve.....

On the other hand, he was clearly baiting and trolling with that comment, why don't you threaten to ban him?

And once again his constant flooding of this site with stupid youtube videos is ridiculous.

In my opinion youtube has become a mainstream part of the internet experience. It is a fantastic way to relay thoughts, feelings and opinions WITHOUT cluttering up servers and mailboxes. You can include a few bytes of information in the form of a short URL and relay ideas, emotions, humor or whatever you desire. How else could I, for example, relay a young Jay Leno, two favorite singers and a favorite songwriter in 43 bytes of disk space?

I like Chris's suggestion of having a thread for favorite video links. Hex, do you think maybe a separate forum for favorite youtube and other video links is a good idea?

btw.....here's a favorite tune from aerosmith...

I don't mind tasteful youtube posts. I think they are just fine in the general section, or any of the other sections when applicable.

I think maybe a dedicated youtube section would detract from the board, being it a cigar discussion forum.

hmmm.... Didn't think of it that way. You have a point.

This is much more than just a cigar discussion forum. It's a cigar smokers forum where cigar smokers (and even Cinda ) can talk about everything and anything. So I guess posting links wherever is probably more appropriate than a separate forum.

Forget my suggestion... bad idea.

Definitely agree with the bolded point. I worded my last post kind of awkwardly.

So do you think Sid's link with the constant use of the word "faggot" is "tasteful?" I don't think it is.

Thank you bigpoppa, haven't heard/seen that video in a while....brings back memories of an awesome summer I had.

I disagree with you.

So Shelby, do you think the video with the constant use of the word "faggot" is something that should have been posted here?

I'm not into youtube and I won't go look at the video. How exactly is the term being used?

All you have to do is click the link that Sid posted and you can see for yourself.

I'm not going to transcribe the video for you dickson because the content is highly offensive. The phrase "God hates fags" is used over and over again along with the line "If you're a fag then God hates you too."

According to the site where the video is posted, it's been "systematically removed" from MySpace and the hate mongers that own the site are encouraging other assholes to post the link elsewhere so they can spread their hate.

Do you think this is appropriate material to be posted here?

Please answer the question instead of continuing to play games.....

LOL!!

Then you concur with me that youtube is NOT "mainstream part of the internet experience" as shelby seems to think.
