I had started a thread a while ago about people who leave really stupid youtube comments. Often without even watching the video. So, I'd like to get a new one going where people can shows theirs! Marvel at some of the idiotic comments we have all gotten. Now, I monitor mine and tend to delete the realllly stupid ones. But once in a while I let one go through so I can reply to the person. Examples

On my video advertising my book:

14765

Question: why is a seemingly grown woman so worried about people thinking a girl in a costume is real? -_-


Here I am SIX MONTHS AGO complimenting Iona on her video where she's doing a cute little thing under water for 32 seconds without a breath

14766

Seriously, 6 months later you need to point out you don't agree that 32 seconds is nice? you wear a mermaid tail and keep yourself on the bottom of the pool for 32 seconds loser -_-


Then there's the people who dont even read the description or listen to the video where I say over and over where my tail came from (i get like 100 of these)
14767

On this same video I get about 50 "CAN I HAVE YOUR OLD TAIL" and about 50 "SHOW US YOU SWIMMING IN IT" -_- cuz you know, no one can click the link to see the rest of the videos....

Then there's the people who think my original mertailor tail (the most expensive he offered at the time) must have been a super cheap tail I bought. Why didn't I just buy a merbellas tail (who didn't exist for years later) if I had all that money??? lol
14768

Not exactly a stupid comment, but whenever people have problems with Eric they come to me. I am not making that up. I get loads of these comments! When I tell you strangers come to me, I mean it, lol. I don't know what they expect me to do or why they think commenting on a youtube video will do anything
14769

On unboxing videos.... lol
14770

oh Gawd...
14771

uh. whut?
14772

Because I always am.
14774

The repeat offender...
14776

Another unboxing video know it all
14777

these jerks (of which I get 100s)
14778


...to be continued...

urgh... :mad: people like this make me so nervous -_-''''' expecially when they say something like sentences without commas/other points and thousands of "please".
[eg: PLEASE GIVE ME THAT TAIL I WANT ONE I JUST MESSAGED TO YOU CAN I HAVE IT PLEASE.]

I also say "Please": PLEASE, get lost from me! :headdesk:

I can see why you turn your comments off. The amount of "whered you get it" comments on a video TITLED "Merbella Studios performance full silicone tail unboxing - Mermaid Iona" with where I ordered it stated IN THE VIDEO and also stated in the video that the links to said tail maker would be IN THE DESCRIPTION and all the info in said description.. it drives me nuts. HUNDREDS of people..
Whered you buy it?" "Were did u get it?" "how did you get the tail and how did you order it". I don't answer anymore. If they want to know they can take 2 seconds to read the description or the TITLE of the dang video.

A ton of people were telling me I was an idiot for putting the tail on IN the water. Cause they know SO MUCH about how to put a full silicone tail on. Cause everyone has one don't you know :P
Also so many people saying that I took too long to put my tail on (5 minutes first try without lube, they don't know that's was practically a record for first timers haha) and saying I was stupid for filming that part when I said the whole point of the video was to see that, and the swimming at the end was just a bonus.

I ban those that do the chain comment things. It irks me.

And of course all the people asking me to buy them one because they don't have the money or to give me theirs "becuase it's their dream".

And this was funny I thought.

14783

Oh, and don't forget the hundreds of 6-10 year old smart alecs!

that's so stupid, it's almost funny!

But ye, I'm glad I've never been to facebook, and no one of the icky social-network-crowd knows me.
I have comments enabled on the few youtube videos I uploaded so I could link them here, and there's not a single comment :)

*knocks on wood* SO far I have escaped such comments except for the "where did ya get it" and "I can't find him comments" on the mvd latex tail review video.
No trolls on youtube but I have dealt with them in other social media.

*winks* Youtube commenters, Yahoo commenters, ...all bred from the same diseased bowl. I know that a couple of y'all (PearlieMae, Raina, Dan- I'm looking at y'all!) are expert trolls, so back at them! It's a good way to relieve stress too.

OMG...all you can do is laugh at some of them, the others not so much,. They are all either haters or just plain stupid! That is why I have gone to approve only on all my videos now and removed ratings too. Mostly for my dance videos. I received quite a few hateful comments. If someone doesnt have something nice to say it is purely b/c they are a hater! sigh

Always fun!

i can't believe they said that to you!

You should have told them "we are all God's creatures. Feet or fins He loves us all" and then turned to the kid and said "I hope you know how much Jesus loves you!" All sugary sweet and bubbly....:) it would have shut them up pretty quick I imagine! People like that like to get their point across, but rarely have anything to say when you throw it back in their face!

That is EXACTLY how I would respond... Or a simpler "Have you heard the news of our dark Lord Cthulhu?" So that rather than thinking I'm speaking in tongues, they understand that I'm being a smartass to them.

I remember while I was working in Michigan with Merbellas, there was this adorable little girl who was trying to convince her parents and brother that the mermaid was real. At one point she loudly said, "I know she's real 'cause God made her!" It was so adorable!

I threaten to use the 'Have you heard the good news about Morgoth the Mighty, the spider that sits in the web at the center of the Universe? He created the world in just SIX days, and he doesn't like your sort very much...' but so far, I have resisted. Or the ever-popular 'There is but ONE GOD! He is the SUN GOD! RA! RA!

Ugh I got a doozy today.

So I uploaded this video of me working on my bubble rings. You might notice at the end of the video, I included a disclaimer so the aquafile crowd wouldn't bother me.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSKFLRphtNM

Now, youtube is all changed, making it very difficult to moderate and manage comments. Anyway I got this comment, and at first it seemed nice, I thought, oh great someone who is going to support that it's okay for me to wear goggles sometime! I could tell from their activity they were an aquaphile person, but at least them seemed respectful which was encouraging. But then I made the mistake of replying...
15809

and their reply:
15810

Yeah let's just go right there. Suggest I exhale slowly while underwater on film, after 1) I made it clear I'm not doing aquaphile stuff, and 2) I just said I'm too busy for more videos. You know it's 100% fetish. I just don't know where they get off even suggesting this stuff.

Then we get this guy, who apparently didn't like my disclaimer on my video. This guy is *always* leaving harassing sexual underwater stuff comments

Thankfully, no-one commented on mine (they probably didn't know what to make of them- harhar),
so I didn't use that option.
I have videos uploaded so I can link them for friends and relatives.
If stupid commenters should appear, I'll just turn off the comment function :p

Yeah, but I really only posted them to attract people, potential clients, to my website, and that is not the type of people I wanted coming to my site, so even with the comments off, they were still coming. So now I have them on there, but they are unlisted so that I can post them on my website and show them to clients, but I don't get harassed.

Bite me, I don't know. Clearly, they don't think for a second how much work it is to make a full silicone tail for adults already. Making one for a growing child is totally pointless and they don't even try to acknowledge it.

I don't necessarily think everyone (referring to kids) has to make their tails though. We just need them to realize how expensive they are and consider the investment and stop being obnoxious on people's pages about it. :S

I don' usually get comments which are too bad. Most are 'GAY' or the usual 'oh you're a boy...that's so weird!' I usually reply quite sarcastically and it scares them off eventually :') But 90% of the comments I get which are bad I delete.

The majority of the comment-posting-population tends not to think things through before posting. :/ I've taken to just ignoring all comments on pretty much everything because it's either irrelevant or ignorant. Face-palming over here along with the rest of you.

Pros for approving comments:
1) if a creep cant comment on your video it would attract more creeps that follow/subcribe said person
2) chain comments wouldnt make it to the video so noone would see chain comments to spread on other videos
3) comments of kids begging for tails wont show up so soon they would forget about even asking about it and not bug you some more

I would say "This is my favorite mermaid tail and it would break my heart to sell it, but if you want it, it's $9,999.00USD plus shipping. Shall I make a Paypal invoice for you? Once it's paid, I will send it to you right away."

specially kids do that, kids dont understand sometimes that people have to save up and earn to get the things they want. like im sure everyone would love to get a goregous mermaid tail for a cheap price. but get so dissapointed when they see the price, then use the trick of pity partying to try to get it for free or something. i absolutely remember doing that as a little kid. they should def know that anyone can get a mermaid tail , but they need patience and need to be frugal with money.

My body shape is not at the forefront of why I mermaid. It's not something I feel I should have to 'rock' or 'flaunt'. It just is. It doesn't solely define me. It shouldn't even matter. Unfortunately a lot of mouth-breathers can only see the fat, and totally miss the point of what I'm doing. That's the frustrating thing.

I mainly upload videos on youtube to get an URL (for sharing purposes on MN), yet some people seem to believe everything put up is an attempt to become famous and/or make a groundbreaking movie :p

On one of my "test run of snake tail"-videos, someone commented "cool idea, but this particular material is a bit diaphanous when wet. That could be a problem."

I was tempted to reply "A problem for what? Convincing anyone I'm a genuine snake? Do I look like I'm aiming for realism in this video, being in a friggin leisure POOL with goggles and swimcap on?"

this is honestly the most repulsing thig, when you brought up youtube and how people take everything seriously i was reminded of this video , thats called " mermaid tails movie" which was a girls FIRST youtube movie video , so these girls are rather young but dispite that ive seen both weird, stupid and very rude comments

24167
24168

all these comments are either
A. those " SAY H20 5 TIMES AND " posts
B. " YOU DONT HAVE A MONOFIN U SUCK!!!!!!"
c. not real
or sadly very rude comments about the childrens appearance

Viet girls are always gonna be judgemental. ALWAYS. i can vouch for this :|

Lol, Asian standards are too high yo. I set mine so that no one else could top it half the time. I used to get beat for getting A-'s instead of A+'s in elementary school haha.

So I thought this was interesting reading through the forums and one of my idols, Mermaid Kariel, left me a comment on instagram so I squealed a little and watched her I Live Aloha (Hawaii.s favorite Mermaid) YouTube video a few more times cause I love the song.

Then I read the comments. So many stupid comments.

"Mermaids aren't real." "Are you really a Mermaid? How can you hold your breath for that long? " "She must live underwater." Best one yet, "You can't be real because I visited Hawaii for 5 weeks and never saw a Mermaid! You're a fake!"

I was irritated and sadden to see a flood of hate with merely 1 or 2 good things written on her awesome video. Then again, you must look at the general types of people who sit and watch YouTube videos all day. Most only say mean things to try to get attention. Most only know how to get attention that way and are merely looking for replies towards what they've written.

"Fake" is such a popular word on YouTube. It's like how when little kids play a game, their go-to word is "cheating". People want something to yell when they crave attention/ego boosts/entertainment/whatever.

And agreed to the posts about prematurely mean children. I've heard so many stories from the kids I work with.

Please watch out for yourself just in case!

ps. I am not demeaning people who claim to have memories of past lives, by the way. I'd be glad to meet someone whose recollections were genuine, but so far I've only encountered nutcases sadly.
Most are harmless, but you never know how far they might get carried.

I have had stalkers locally before that resulted from a mermaid obsessive and I've called the police because one man was mentally ill and figured out where I worked and followed me around. It *does* make me nervous because I can see from his online activity (I checked him out online) that he is coming here. But from his other online activity he doesn't seem t post ANYTHING like this. I'm hoping he's just trolling and making fun of me. And not really someone who believes all this searching me out...

I plan on making my first tail since I can't buy one at the moment, but when I do have a tail, I'm not sure I'll be allowing comments on my videos. I hate it when people turn off their comments, but I can understand it in this case. I can't believe some of the stuff you guys have had to go through, and I'm so sorry you have to deal with this kind of junk all the time.

she didn't say it had to be silicone though.
Some of the guys who text me on FB (crying how they don't have a tail, no money, and don't know how to sew) usually say they'd be content with a fabric tail if it was well-made :p

This was on my personal facebook, but it still goes to show the sort of things you get.

Ahh I so hope that guy really is just a troll Raina ☺

Omg the amount of people who ask me to make them a tail and give me the "but I caaaan't sew" ....I mean its not hard, I learnt when i was 4, if a 4 year old can sew so can you 😑

I actually have a creepy dutch guy messaging me on my facebook Merpage that I have yet to figure out if
1- he thinks im a real mermaid
2- is a mervert with a merobssession
3- just generally wants to talk to anyone who likes what he likes.

He keeps refering to me as "mermaid" and asking strange questions like

"Is the mermaid kiss real?"

When I ask what he means he tells me that if you kiss a mermaid you transform into one

And he is always asking me

"Are you in your tail right now"

Then I say "no, why???"
And he responds with
"Because in my mind you are in your tail"

O.o just a bit creepy!!!

I hate all those girls who are starting up youtube mermaid series so will comment on your videos saying 'subscribe to my channel and I'll subscribe to you'. Firstly, I actually watch some mermaid series on youtube, because I enjoy them but most I don't and if I don't enjoy it I'm not going to watch or subscribe. Secondly, what would be the point of getting you to subscribe to me when I doubt you'll watch my vids or have any genuine interest in them anyway?

I didnt have time to respond yesterday as was in a car crash (im fine dont worry) and the amount of hello's all day in my inbox was over the top
