About LinkBacksI've been watching YT videos and at many of them, in the comments section, I saw something like "Give me thumbs up if you think...". WTH?!?
Really! I don't have something personal with those YT users but seriously man... have a bit of decency in you. Of course, I didn't forget not many people are the same. These guys are ramentors (r@pe + comment; I call them that). In the ol' days, when reading others opinion was, somehow, a pleasure for you as a reader. But now... "GIVE ME THUMBSUP IF...". Today, when I see these kind of comments, I observe Youtube staff are failing, day by day, in improving their great invention, instead of helping YT partners.
GOOD or BAD?
Oh, I've also saw at APH comments section: they're messed up with those ratings! There are many ramentors and trolmentors.
*EXCLUDING the karma in our forum.*
*UPDATE*
YES counts "No, they're a GOOD IDEA."
NO counts "Yes, they're a BAD IDEA."
Indifferent counts "Meh".

Re: Thumbsup & Thumbsdown <> GOOD or BAD
Sometimes it's okay on YT, because if it's a good comment than thumbs up will help more people see it.

I agree.
I'm indifferent, in relation to this, but I like the thumbs system. A lot. On Youtube.1 Thessalonians 4:16-17: The Lord comes swiftly.

I didn't saw any of these on youtube, only on APH (comments section is filled with that kind of comment).

Re: Thumbsup & Thumbsdown <> GOOD or BAD
Totally and officially the worst idea EVAR. You can't rate something with 2 options,it's like you either like it or not.
But the stars rating was way different,you can actually rate the video and show how much which is really important!

Re: Thumbsup & Thumbsdown <> GOOD or BAD
I can see how it could be informative forcertain users in certain conditions, but must of the time it is pointless, in my opinion.

Re: Thumbsup & Thumbsdown <> GOOD or BAD
The thumbs are good for hackers
"Thumbs up if you had no problem with this game, thumbs down if you did"
To many thumbs down and i would look through the game again
