Their song "Dschinghis Khan" is a mad drinking song. Always comes up after a dozen beers.

Here's a sift of it: Video

So one person telling another to downvote a video is ok?
I didnt name the 2 people in question but they both were downvoting the same type of video. It looked like a "Tip-off" from one "sift-informer" to "sift-police":p How much are informers getting paid these days?


I'm going to reply to this with a timeline of my own actions. Reason is this:

>> ^prisonpanda:
Ah noes the internet police were here. Man you folks down voting really outta chill out and stop trying to police this site.


in aparently reply to a coment i made, just before it.

KP posted a vid. clearly a rediculouse vid. a vid of horrror. i see it (in early unsifted state) as i was browsing reasent comments, and saw Issys coment invokation * Fear:
Vid: http://www.videosift.com/video/Man-Boobs
Comment: href="/video/Man-Boobs#comment-517208"

I watched the vid by KP and was horrified. I upvoted the fear coment. I didnt down vote. Not yet. Why? it wasnt sifted. and, i didnt want to attracked increased attention to this attrocity.

later, KP left me a comment profile suggesting i down vote his vid. why? because it was getting perilously close to getting sifted and it was truly awefull. He left such coments on a ffew peoples profiles, this being a bit of an injoke/entertaniment amoungst the regulars.

I duly downvote, as the + to - vote ratio was on the wrong balance.

Kps videos had mr pregnant in the tags.

I was at the bottom of the vid page, to see who else had down/upvoted. In so doing, i spoted http://wtf.videosift.com/video/Big-Belly-Man-Been-missing-you in the related videos section. very similar thumbnails. Isnt there for me now, but was at the time.

Sometimes, after one vid from a src gets sifted (or even submitted) others from that src get sifted too, by the human jump on bandwagon reaction i myself have succumbed to at times. These vids were too bad to ignore, and the thought of several on the front page could nto be countenanced.

This meme needed nipping in the bud, and fast.

So i watched the above vid, didnt like it, not one bit, and down voted. I also left eh follwing coment: "href="/video/Big-Belly-Man-Been-missing-you#comment-519237

which was immediately followed by the one at the top by prisonpanda referring to "the internet police" and suggesting "chill out and stop trying to police this site" which is such utter bullshit its beyond words. its attempting to police the site through up and down votes, that stops it being YouTube. its the WHOLE FUCKING point of being here.

it was shortly after that the sift talk post about http://wtf.videosift.com/talk/Voting-here-is-like-blockvotes-at-Eurovision-song-Contest was posted, making similar statements

-----

So thats my actions, and the chronolgy/sequence/reasons for them.

As for Ban or Not Ban, if, thoes down votes were legit to qthe quality fo the watched vids, fine. if not, and an emotional outburst, then i vote for rules is rules and 2 week suspension/ban as i think thats the standard duration.

DONT down vote from spite. down vote cos the vid is bad, and the Mr Pregnant vids 9atleast the 2 i watched) are appauling

I could gather that this is probably a response to my downvote on
http://wtf.videosift.com/video/Big-Belly-Man-Been-missing-you
and the response http://wtf.videosift.com/talk/Voting-here-is-like-blockvotes-at-Eurovision-song-Contest

Cry more and eat a cookie. That video was pure crap and fully deserved my downvote.

>> ^MINK:
nice one, eklek!
lithuanians love to copy stuff, very badly.
they can copy ANYTHING, but only very very badly. If you thought you couldn't go lower than "Barbie Girl"... here you are This makes the original seem like a slick commentary on modern society and consumerism, doesn't it?


Umm... it was.

That was evil, I had to upvote that AND it is stuck to my head! Thank god for not having any beer bellies there!

Ahhhh you jumped on the eurovision bandwagon! Cheap, verrrrry cheap. And I was thinking that exact same thing about the cheese channel, it's definitely a must. It would be quite ironic if you had that channel Zon, haha

70's eurovision is pretty obscure dude..

What do you mean "obscure" ? Everybody knows this one! Well, except Americans.

i probably hit that channel because the song is from the eurovision songcontest, which traditionally is also a huuuge gay party but "gay" has absolutely nothng to do with the song, so of course you are right. a little braindead moment on my part, it has happened before and will most likely happen again

In reply to this comment by LadyDeath:
Hey Thanks for removed the channel on the secret garden video..oh and thanks for upload that I cant believe someone else upload something from then specially nocturne I love that song Great Sift

Eurovision is best viewed drunk. It's probably where the term 'eurotrash' comes from, if you ask me.
