Yes this is New Facebook - old Facebook can't be trusted. One, two, three comments and no ratings. Sal will say he never rates videos, which is pretty shitty of him considering how few people we have here. You two should be ashamed.
SuperDuperNova it's called a Spiked Original - we sometimes post personal vids here. I haven't posted a Ziggy vid in ages, and I thank you for commenting.
About 10% of what I post here gets voted off, depending on whether the super friends have been fed that day.
Sal dislikes dogs.
Yes I've been posting a lot - I love you all so much.
And, finally, this page has 46 views and yet the YouTube video, which includes all 1366 of my subscribers, has only been viewed 25 times based on real-time stats.

you think its shitty not to rate because you dont understand the perspective.
see. i dont vote for 2 reasons.
1. i feel as though my opinion shouldnt be a factor in whether or not someone else has the option of viewing content.
2. since content is already here and easily viewable. rating it to move it to a different section is redundent. if it stays it stays, if it dies it dies. if there is so few of us, we dont need different sections, you just scroll down.
with that in mind. asking people to rate seems like the actions of a narcissist.
side note. i love dogs. i know i'm not responsible/home enough to have one and not everyone that clicks the content plays the video. i didnt. i came for the comments.

The three of you, plus whoever else that didn't hit play, came here about 20 times to check the comments - try the Recent Content link instead LOL.
I thought you said your mother used to beat you with a dog on the regular? But you still love them, and that's admirable.
There are so few of us *members* left. There are a few thousand casual and nomadic viewers, as you know, and as you know they will tend to watch and stick with whatever's on the front page.
Asking people to rate videos, regardless of who posts them, is the action of a Spiked National who understands how the site works.

recent page only tells you there is a new comment, it doesnt tell you who commented or if its a reply to a comment.
so you as a "spiked national who understands how the website works". do you think the "few thousands of casual and nomadic viewers" are sitting on the front page looking at the same videos for sometimes up to a month instead of the recent tab? it could take days to make it to the front page. if your only seing something new show up every few days, whats the point?
i never said she beat it. i said she smacked it on the bum with a rolled up newspaper when it would shit on the floor or destroy something when it was young. in that same comment i did ask if the ends justify the means. i was drawing comparison of cesar milans methods to beating a dog. his methods and perspective is based off an incorrect study of wolves forced to live with non-related wolves. if they both have the same results, do the methods matter?

Your ignorant comments regarding Milan and canines notwithstanding you've made my point for me. When the front page goes stale for sometimes up to a week at a time it discourages the casual and nomatic viewers who yes come here and yes only look at the front page. How could you have been a member here for so long and have never noticed the difference in page views between the new content page and the front page?

LOL Oh snap you're desperately trying to change the subject aren't you? Look at you lose your shit with a clumsy shit-post. As a Spiked National, you realize that there are easily 20 times more non-members than members who visit SpikedNation. I'm thinking of them, and of how their enthusiasm or lack thereof directly impacts the value and sustainability of this site, when I harp about members rating the vids they watch and watching what they rate. I've built a simple YouTube marketing funnel that has directed almost 1000 people to the site according to Google analytics. I think a more frequent variety of good videos appearing on the front page is good for the site. Too many stall at 4/5 or 5/5 with 8-10 votes because of members not participating.
You assume my encouraging folks to vote is about wanting my own posts to be successful with your narcissism crack - that's a window into YOUR mind. You're often dark and petty and yet I'm asking you to vote on my posts for the good of the site knowing, based on your very open comments, you would rate the content I post poorly.

you asked and question i answer, i asked a question, you dont answer, to you i'm ignorant. thats a window into YOUR mind.
1750 people visit spikednation on dailybasis and thats since the switch in 2017. if you want to say your sending 1000 of them, fuck you. 90% of them come directly. so thats 175 people left. 3% search for the site so thats another 52 gone. 122 left. 4% a reffered. so thats 70 people visiting here. now you mention a youtube marketing funnel. your not sending people here. you have 1300 suscribers but only 4% could account for the views on your personal videos(less than 50 views). your most popular ones are usually taken from other sources. most, if not all of your views on personal videos could and probably do come from spikednation. none of your videos tell people to visit spikednation so how are you funneling youtube traffic here? are you using the gnomes strategy from south park? 1, make youtube vidoes, 2. ? 3. increase spikenation viewership
it makes no difference between members and non members. if everything goes to the recent page, and everyone that visits spikednation goes to the recent page, nobody is missing out on anything unless something gets voted off. people that go to youtube don't ignore the tabs and load more buttons, why would you assume non members ignore the recent/popular tab? if you were thinking of the non-members would you not think it would be better for the recent to be the front page? that way they see everything
don't know how i would rate your content. you put up 42 things in the last week, i've only viewed 10 of them. out of those 10, some i didnt even watch the video, came for the comments. of the other 32, i've either already seen it or not interested in it, so i'm not really active enough to say how i would rate your stuff.

LOL Dumbass -I have directed about 1000 here: That doesn't mean they took the direction. I have no idea how many actually came here: You're so cute when you're concrete. I'd be surprised if more than 1% or 2% actually visited the site. Back in my direct sales days I found cold-calling returned about a 25% appointment rate, and of those appointments there was about 5%-10% sales. With a simple marketing funnel it's probably going to be higher than that, but I like to stay conservative.
The viewcount disparity between the new page and front page proves that "everyone that visits spikednation" doesn't go to the recent page. Instead the best videos, which are voted on by a tiny subset of the overall viewership, are voted to the front page or off the site, or nowhere. That's what it means to be a Spiked National. Obviously. What's up with you - is everything okay?

first thing you need to do is get the embeded code. so if you right click on a youtube video and choose copy embed code. you can then past that into a commend box. but before that you have to disable rich-text at the bottom before pasting the code. once its pasted renable rich-text if you want to do anymore typing. the last thing is to make sure your Text Format is set to Full HTML or it won't work"

And he tells him "Bug the hell out of that Skeptoid guy while I'm away - if you can get him to swear 5 times in one comment or write more than 4000 words arguing with you in one comment thread I'll give you $20 when I get back."
