Clickbait titles.

Oh, and clickbait thumbnails.

Quite a few of the above would annoy me if I watched more than 1 second of them before clicking away, but I generally don't.

Oh. I was going to be right there with you on this...because it didn't read like clickbait to me....BUT...there was no video of her completing the course, or on it at all. I think that's why it's being called clickbait.

It should have said 'the badass 9 year old that completed navy seal obstacle course', because the title as is clearly falsely implies that the video is of her on the course. I'm guessing that you copied the title, but YT titles are often click bait.
What this video was wasn't worth watching, but seeing her compete on the hard core adult course might be.

Really Sagemind? Clickbait again...now how is this click bait? This one was much shorter, but I happened to like it better than the others, it gave just enough info, but still got the story told..where is the click bait there? I believe the words click bait are being used to generally around here....:(

The story is great - But i Cannot bring myself to vote-up one of these Clickbait "Now This" videos when there are so many actual videos about her. These things are just awful.

I'm voting to filter out the poor quality videos

I must admit I, for one, can't see how this was supposed to "shock the vegan world" in any way, shape, or form.
I assumed you copied the title from the original, so no blame from me, but it is 'clickbait' IMO.
There's no "shock" to be found here....unless the herd exploding was accidentally cut out, in which case you need to fix it! ;-)

I'm really curious what he meant by 'shock' in the first place...are we to be shocked that a vegan can write vegan poetry?

I really have a hard time believing the cops did what the clickbait title overtly states.

I'll have to view the video at some point when I'm too happy and need a good strong dose of nihilistic depression.

Clickbait much? Yikes. She's cute, but that's a horrible title.

Well the video is kinda clickbait, I found most the things mentioned on Amazon

"You won't BOX your EARS when you believe this MAN-BEAT!"

"You won't BEAT your BOX when your EARS believe this MAN!"

"This one crazy old trick will help you BEAT YOUR MAN-BOX!"

...what? Clickbait doesn't have to make sense.

Almost didn't upvote because of the clickbait title. But the skill was too strong with this guy.

Damn clickbait title.

i have zero desire to see trance banned,that was never my intent for calling him out.
i simply wanted him to acknowledge his emotional response to a disagreement on a video he posted,
that the disagreement was with the video NOT him..personally.

i know this will only further derail this thread but i think it should be said.

a video is not a representation of the person.
being called out does not automatically translate to dislike of the person being called out.

a few weeks ago i did a little experiment with clickbait titles and @ChaosEngine totally called me on it.which gave me a nice chuckle and chaos was in the right but interestingly enough,the experiment worked.that video got 10 times the views it normally would in the same allotted time.

there was another video i posted where i didnt do my due diligence and it turned out to be a total fraud and @speechless (quite politely) called me out on that video and i was forced to apologize in shame.

does all this translate to chaos and speechless disliking me?
of course not.
i got busted using clickbait methodology and not doing my homework.while a tad embarrassing,being called out taught a lesson and a bit of humility.

point: i was the better for it.

trances targeted downvoting was an emotional response and he was behaving foolishly,but make no mistake..trance is no fool.he just took my analysis and criticism personally and responded emotionally.

no animals were harmed,all the puppies are still cute and kitty videos are more popular than ever.

human beings are sometimes irrational and emotional.trance should not be banned for behaving like a human being.

So the clickbait style title is satire?

To counter all the clickbait-style teasing, it's Ireland. The thumbnail shows the ranking.

Its a satire on clickbait...
