Yup, because every content creater is [b]exactly[/b] like this, right? You totally aren't generalizing a few Youtubers and using them to inaccurately represent [b]all[/b] Youtubers, right?

yup he did. next up ”rubber & glue”

Nope, I'm simply defending myself against a petty troll who seems to have found nothing better to do than to waste my time. You have given absolutely no constructive input whatsoever in this conversation, and you continue to fight a battle that isn't yours. You lost this argument the moment it began. Now go away before you prove my point even further.
-
Lol talk about fighting a battle that isn't yours. Are you a streamer, or a YouTuber? Yet here you are fighting that battle, and getting destroyed. You miss the point. People who fight generalizations, as if everyone actually thinks that EVERY single person fits the description, and as if the description does not completely accurately depict a majority of the subject group, are intellectually dishonest. When you spread that nonsense, it's actually a societal detriment and, as a part of society, it is my battle.

Edited by LikeGlitta: 7/16/2017 3:15:43 PMSo defending my opinion is looked down upon, yet attacking a random person who you seem as a "societal detriment" (this is entirely based off of your opinion and nothing else) is ok? I mentioned that OP was making a large generalization because what he said was extremely disrespectful toward the Youtubers that genuinely work hard at what they do. I see nothing wrong with pointing out generalizations when I find that they present an issue. Obviously we shouldn't be pointing out [b]every[/b] time someone makes an absolute statement that isn't necessarily true, but when it is blatantly offensive to a large group of people, something needs to be said. I understand that OP was trying to make a joke, but unless he makes a disclaimer that he is only talking about certain Youtubers, he is directly insulting not only quality content creators, but he is also insulting those that support them as well. Since I am someone who watches YouTube content regularly, this is very much a battle of my own. Also your theory that having an argument against generalizations is "intellectually dishonest" and that such people are a "societal detriment" is entirely based on your opinion.
-
Nope, most generalizations are statistically provable. Like this one regarding you tubers. One can watch 100 youtubers, track the percentage that this fits absolutely, and when it is upwards of 90%, you can mathematically verify the fact that this generalization rightfully represents the group. You could have appreciated the illustration, laughed, and even commiserated with the community over how annoying it is t watch a video like that. Instead, you chose getting upset. Is it tiring trying so hard to be offended all the time?

Edited by LikeGlitta: 7/16/2017 7:45:15 PMIt's true that quality Youtubers are few and far between, but that does not change the fact that what OP said could be considered disrespectful. There are so many quality content creators out there that it's a huge insult to generalise them like this. If I'm not mistaken, this is a logical fallacy and should not be excused conveniently for the purpose of being a joke. I may have seen the joke ad humorous had OP included a disclaimer, but I'm only interpreting what is in front of my eyes. For all I know, OP could legitimately think that all Youtubers are like this since he has not pointed it out himself. Though we can probably both agree that's unlikely, it doesn't change the fact that he is being disrespectful to many quality Youtubers as well as the people that support them. I'm done with this argument as I've wasted enough time. Agree to disagree and move on.

This is a very generic response either you're trolling or just really upset because one or a few of your favorite destiny youtubers fits the description of the joke perfectly.
-
Err, you familiar with Byf? He's a (mainly) destiny youtuber and he most definitely doesn't match that description. [spoiler]Just to mention one.[/spoiler]
-
Don't remember mentioning byf specifically in the comment you replied to. Try reading it again...
-
I did, and from what I've gathered you're mixing those quality youtubers (like byf) with the big amount of youtubers OP seems to be describing. Saying that a person is salty because their favorite channels fit the description of those low quality channels is just plainly assuming that this person only watches garbage channels, which is probably not the case. If this person's favorite channel is a high quality channel, then it's understandable that they'd speak up for the good channels, which OP puts on the same level as these low quality channels. Also, please try to stay friendly in the conversations here, negativity won't make your point stronger. This isn't meant to be directed at you, but rather to every one scrolling past this place.

-
So OP told you byf was one of his favorite channels? I guess you must be psychic seeing how neither of us mentioned him.
-
I used Byf as an example. I could have used any high quality youtuber there, I just went with Byf because he (in my opinion) is a fantastic example of high quality destiny youtuber.

Edited by xDarkTempest-: 7/17/2017 3:39:07 PMI'm aware of byf's work also once again I'm going to tell you to read my comments again because you for some reason you assume I said every destiny youtuber. I'm more than aware of the ones who are worth watching which is why I don't take this post as seriously as you people because they obviously don't fit the description the majority do.
-
Nope, not a single one of the ones I regularly watch is even close to this description. I understand there are Youtubers that are like the one OP described, but you can't generalise all of them like that. It's no different than saying every McDonald's worker is a failure that can't get themselves a career.

Edited by xDarkTempest-: 7/16/2017 1:41:59 AMDude you really need to relax and honestly your last sentence made me laugh.....a lot I actually cried a bit, not the best example.😂

[quote]Dude you really should need to relax and honestly your last sentence made me laugh.....a lot I actually cried a bit, not the best example.😂[/quote] So when someone dominates a logical argument, they need to "relax?" You honestly shouldn't be prying into someone else's argument unless you actually plan on defending yourself properly. And regardless of whether or not my analogy was a bit of a stretch, it gets my point across that not every YouTuber is as generic as OP described. If you don't appreciate what they do, at least have some respect for what they do for a living.
-
Well I was never trying to argue in the first place, just trying to make you see it wasn't as serious as you're making it. If you do wanna get serious however you're being more immature than the OP. You're making a scene out of a joke post because your feelings were hurt for who knows what reason defending people you don't know that probably don't even know you exist. I'm pretty sure any youtuber who read this would get a chuckle out of it because unlike yourself they're mature enough not to care what some rando on the internet says or thinks about them but hey what do I know, I'm just some random scrub on the infamous Destiny forums. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
The fact that you took "every streamer" this seriously is troubling. Maybe you should go outside and get some fresh air. :\
-
Fresh air is OP, too many people are using it. Fresh air needs to be nerf!
-
It need to be brought in line with polluted air. Nerf the base freshness by 15%
-
oops, that was .0015%.......

Edited by LognNogn: 7/16/2017 8:21:29 PMGotta love when people use the age old 'go outside' you have no clue about the other person, I'm not taking a side but I have to call this out when I see it.
-
Well I'm not sure what you hoped to accomplish by "calling me out on it" but regardless I still have no regrets and fully stand by my comment. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
Stop coloring your hair blue, stop eating just the crust on sandwiches.
