*up-votes...

How 'bout letting dcpiano know what he's done wrong there chicco?

BTW, Love yer schtick dc, sorry yer about to get tag-teamed by the douche-patrol....

@dcpiano: Please read the Posting Guidelines:

"Please do not self link.

While you may see this site as a great way to promote a project you are working on or promoting, it would be bad for our content if everyone just put up videos of them and their friends doing random things. If you are associated with a project you think is truly amazing and must be shared, please contact us. We'll take a look at it and if we also think it's great too, we'll post it for you. If you attempt to post it yourself, your video and account will be deleted. Hey, it's harsh, but it's harsh love.

...

If you self link, regardless of your logic or explanation, you are violating the posting guidelines. There are no exceptions for any reason, whatsoever.

Finally, submitting a video that is considered spam falls within our definition of a self-link. If you create an account solely to post a video for whatever reason, but do not actually participate in VideoSift in any other way before or after, you may be considered a spammer/self-promoter and your account is subject to banning."

Hold on, so you agree he is violating the no self link rule ("Love yer schtick dc")but you aren't willing to ban him for the violation of the rule. Instead you CONSTANTLY give @chicchorea shit for his diligence in weeding out these self linkers. Seems to me you should be addressing @dag or @lucky760 if you feel the need to constantly give someone shit for a rule you don't agree with or like. Who's the real sifter on douche-patrol here?

-edit-
Removed the more unnecessary bits

It's just Swirley, Eric.

^ If he'd care to, I'd discuss my problem with his tactics at length, but as you can see eric, he's already decided just how he's willing to avoid discussion, and simply deride me publically.

I take offense, and as politely as I am able to at any time, voice my consternation with the dysfunction and hate directed at me personally.

Swirly??-That's like sticking someone's head in a toilet and holding them down while you flush it, right? One usually needs a few like-minded buddies to help with such a move...

I'd call his new favorite word for me a bully-tactic cloaked in an insult, disguised as a free-ticket to absolution. But hey, I'm the asshole here so, it couldn't be anyone but me, right??

Why sir, did not you yourself second his ban of this violator of the sift's rules eric, if it's not simply to call-attention to what you perceive as hate directed at chicco??

Maybe get a room, discuss it amongst yourselves??

whoopsie...can't even downvote properly....

Freudian click, chicco.
and eric, I agree I like the man's schtick.
'A shtick (Yiddish: שטיק) (or schtick) is a comic theme or gimmick.'

I am the one of the only sifters on douche-patrol here, as I am often find myself under the threat of personal attacks and lame motherfucking reprisals when I freely state my opinions in the land of damaged-goods emotionalism and predictable histrionics.

*return

Returning this video from Sift Talk - return requested by chingalera.

*discuss

This video is being sent to Sift Talk for discussion - discuss requested by chingalera.

I don't consider invoking *ban on someone to be a douche move when they explicitly ignored all these ridiculously blatant warnings:



But maybe that's just me.

dcpiano has been seconded for banination by lucky760. This account will now be disabled. If you would like to appeal this banination, dcpiano, you may contact the administrators.

Let's see if we can still *discuss this since @chingalera's interested.

[edit]
I guess we can't discuss discarded videos.

If by "threat of personal attacks"...blah, blah, blah, you mean "people keep bringing up the reputation I have worked so long and hard to establish", you're undoubtedly correct.

Karma's a bitch.

Indeed....
