YouTube on-ride video

Was browsing YouTube awhile back and noticed someone had the bright idea to POV quite a few coasters.

[ Please don't link to videos that violate on-ride photo/video rules ]

I left a mature comment regarding the dangers of on-ride photography and could not believe that amount of pure stupidity that followed. Just read the comments and you'll see what I mean.

(I can't stand people with such a high disregard for rules, if you can't tell!) ;)

Stop being such an enthusiast, mind your own business, and let the people who are paid to police the park do it.

Kind of like the people who aren't paid to police this website.

Thank you e x i t. I think we all know there are plenty of sites with CP coasters that have POV videos. And also, you don't need a thread showing that you made a comment about a POV ride from youtube.com

I don't police. I just speak my mind.

Didn't I ask people not to post YouTube videos, because we all know what youtube is, and if we wanted these videos, we'd search for them. And considering that on ride photos and video aren't allowed, I'm pretty sure that this topic will get deleted.

ONE LAST TIME: WE DO NOT NEED LINKS TO YOUTUBE FOR RANDOM ROLLER COASTER VIDEOS

Of coure, unless, you've made it and it's *semi* interesting.

Why would you start a thread about this?

Why would you post on a thread about this?

My point exactly.

Oops, I'm sorry. I forgot you were the forum-police.

Your point exactly, eh? You've got your opinion and I've got mine. That's the beauty of the internet, and specifically forums. Close the thread and go about your little policing activities as normal if you don't like it. ;)

^He doesn't have the power to close this thread. But don't worry, the person who does have the power will.

kirk06, you need to mind your own business. Yes, I agree that it is stupid to videotape while on a coaster. However, you should not go out of your way just to act all high and mighty by telling people that they should follow the rules.

I don't really care if a person wants to videotape while on a ride, as long as the camera doesn't fly off and hit me.

And when one does?

I'm not saying this was worth a board, but I think it's more complaining about people taking videos (which is justifiable), not how messed up YouTube is.

Or...it could be the YouTube thing, in which case this is pointless by all means...

...And when one does, believe me, it hurts.

Whatever.

MrScott

Believe me, I am not trying to act high and mighty. I'm here to discuss...on a discussion board.

DBCP, I'd bet it'd hurt! Bugs hurt bad enough on MF and Dragster ;)
And Tay Tay, you hit the nail on the head...I could care less if it was on Youtube or here, the fact of the matter is that it was an onride video and it was something I commented about. I'm glad you could see this post for what it was. :)

Pointless?

He better hope his insurance covers proctology and a long pair of foreceps.

Pointless?
Sure...okay
Take a look at half of the threads floating around here. I see a lot of posts that are more pointless than this one.

I love how one thread can send you all into a frenzy. It shows a lot for your character, and even more of the boards themselves. I've taken part in numerous online communities and have never seen people as ridiculous as you guys.

It's too bad we don't see you guys starting threads that aren't "pointless"... instead all I see is people flaming others every chance they get, or starting yet another Project 2007 "what will it be!??" thread.

Walt and Jeff have a great site going here with some great content. It's too bad certain members of this community are overshadowing everything good about the site.

This is clearly going nowhere...
