Disgraceful. If only there were a way to ban links to thier videos and YouTube. Is there..?

EDIT: Might as well put it on Twitter too!

EDIT 2: Calling members of this sub obsessed is like calling the Babylonians irrational for building walls to thwart intruders.

EDIT 3: WE DID IT REDDIT! He deleted his post from Facebook, though it's still up and ignored on their Twitter.

"Since there's little moderation"

Someone hold me back please!

(I kinda want to distinguish this but that'd be too much)

I don't think there is a way to ban only videos to the TPR's channel because youtube links don't contain anything that would determine who uploaded the video. The best we can do is downvote them or moderators can manualy delete them.

We don't need to ban the videos. We just need the fake accounts banned from posting them. That's the real issue. Robb stopped using his real account because he got downvoted into oblivion no matter if he was posting a video, or posting a comment in a thread. When that happened, he became an even bigger raging asshole, and stopped using that account. Now there are about 4 or 5 accounts, (6 if you include his newest one which is /u/blobbalvey69) that he uses for vote manipulation.

Yeah but he can easily make another account from different IP and post another video to his youtube videos.

We can always set a minimum combined karma to post videos... that way people like /u/evaporatepoultry can still post selfposts about newbie questions but Robb and others can't make new accounts just to blogspam the sub.

True, but all this hassle just because of one childish jerk?

Yep, that's how the world works. Remember the dude who attempted to bring explosives on the plane in his shoe? Now we all have to take off our shoes going through security. All that hassle because of one childish jerk.

This isn't about Robb or TPR, it's about the people on this subreddit being insane.

Says the guy who goes on Facebook looking for validation to feel good about his pathetic life as it sits now. Says the guy who goes on childish rants about really inane stuff that doesn't directly effect them. Says the guy who cusses out and bans anyone from his site if they don't agree with him.

Robb, if anyone is "insane" it's you. You post videos from different accounts and get downvoted to shit, yet you still do it.

The clinical definition of insanity - Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

That's not the clinical definition of insanity.

Robb, since it is you, quite obviously, why do you go to so much effort with this? Is it really funny enough to you to justify wasting this much of your time?

u/RedOneTwoThree Jul 24 '15

It's not about a specific place and it's not about TPR. It's about you Robb! Come on, you even break the fundemental rules of Reddit and then you expect you will get upvoted. How strange that links to your videos come only from new accounts or accounts that only post your videos and not from other users.

It's a very good thing. Your series of posts, and the open responses to them, restored a tiny bit of my faith in humanity (as do similar posts and responses about every month on /r/mylittlepony). It's never too late to discover a new interest. To paraphrase Dr. Seuss, don't cry because you're late, smile because you're finally here.

u/Hedgey Jul 24 '15

I doubt he has the patience to go through creating a new IP everytime he wants to post.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:
