YouTube comments are well known to be toxic at times, and the comments to the other run are a clear example of that. Just ignore and disregard them.

At the very least, maybe refrain from calling everyone who doesn't like Club Penguin a shitposter or a child. That might be hard for someone who literally calls himself "Club Penguin" online though.

Not shitposters, according to TASvideos' #1 shitposter Tangent:

I'll never understand why people do this, a single level in Sonic 1 has more gameplay in it than this shit.

Mayby that was only game this guy had for year closed in his basement and he decided to give it a tribute doing worlds best tas?

XD omg what the fuck why did they do this game

super hardcore mlg pro TAS m8, gr8 gaem 420/yolo- ign

100% constructive criticism from the lovely Youtube audience! Not shitposting at all!

Sans the first, those don't seem particularly vicious.

Then let me rephrase. Between the two of you, you went into a Youtube comments section, called everybody "entitled jackasses", "brainless assholes", and said "I'm waiting for the kids to react to this crap TAS I did," and you in particular pitched a martyrdom fit. And then he/you coming back here to bitch about the comments there not being nice enough, and calling me a shitposter for pointing out that he's kicking the nest. What did the two of you expect would happen? Engaging in the same behavior you're complaining about would cow people into line?

lol i can see why they dont like the tas but they're not really tasvideos users to vote,so who cares? GJ on the improvement,and Tangent you don't have to defend the unknown shitposters,let dekupenguin accuse them freely lol let's not hurt each other in the community,because we actually have to deal with each other in the forums Same goes to you Samsara and Dekupenguin,let's avoid the bait to curse at our members.

I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

Your point is? It sounds to me like you're saying "They're right because you're doing it too", which is the most flawed logic I've seen on these forums in at least 7 hours. It's a Youtube comments section, am I supposed to go in there and pitch an intellectual discussion on the merits of game choice? No, it's a breeding ground for shit-eating rodents, so I'm just gonna throw some more shit in there for them to feed on. My involvement has nothing to do with the original comments and it sure as hell doesn't validate what they wrote. By your logic, since your first post in the thread was subtly hateful and insulting, that means I'm right and I have every reason to chastise you for "kicking the nest". Which, I should add, is literally what you were doing anyway. Nice misinterpretation of dekutony's comment, by the way. It couldn't be that he was commenting on the fact that several adults had told him he wasted his time and he honestly wants to see how younger children react. No, your passionate hatred for people who don't deserve it has to twist that into "kicking the nest". Sure. Okay. Here I am implicitly stating that these people are being elitist and brainless and obviously trying to stir up trouble, but nope, according to you he's the one bringing those comments that were already there long before he made that comment. You can't even argue that his "they're all shitposters" comment in the submission text is "kicking the nest" because how many of those people are even going to see it? Who in their right mind would be joyless and disdainful enough to come here and try to defend hateful comments? ...Other than you, I mean.

And then he/you coming back here to bitch about the comments there not being nice enough, and calling me a shitposter for pointing out that he's kicking the nest. What did the two of you expect would happen? Engaging in the same behavior you're complaining about would cow people into line?

Honestly? I expected a little more respect for someone who's clearly upset at the rash of people telling him he essentially wasted his time. But no, I guess I should've known better than to expect this submission to drift idly by without TASvideos' #1 shitposter popping in and posting their usual smug, victim-blaming white noise. Can you at least try to know what you're talking about, or have some sort of huge, hilarious meltdown that ends with you claiming you're leaving the forums? If you weren't such a dull, lifeless void I might actually care enough to acknowledge your existence from this point onward.

Just consider the amount of time and heart it took me to finish the published run, expecting at least some nice feedback... but no. And the comment I did... it was literal. I legitimately wanted to see what actual kids, fans of Club Penguin, that remember the PSA missions reacted like. Not actual grown up adults making fun of my 15 month TAS. I was pissed, so that comment was indeed misinterpretaded. But FluffyMoth and grassini are right, I shouldn't complain this much... so my apologies to Tangent, derula and Samsa. my english is fucking terrible D;

Jesus Christ Samsara, you’re full of hate or something. Take it easy.

Condemnation of your behavior and attitude is not an endorsement or defense for theirs. It's not the black and white, us vs them situation that you're trying to make it out to be. If you don't want a toxic environment, then don't do things that contribute to making one.
