It's amazing how people really love to hate, especially when these people go to certain extents to keep on hating. Starting anything on the internet has its risks because people can say whatever they want with it basically being anonymous.
When creating a YouTube channel for YankeeBaseBlog, I had already experienced people calling me names on my other channels telling me things that would lower my self esteem. To be honest, I made the channel thinking that no one would come to see it. It's been a surprise to know that I am known now more for my YankeeBaseBlog channel than my other two channels combined. Of course I'm not famous or anything, but as of today I have 39 subscribers.
Everyone on YouTube wants to become famous, well most people. And you always want your videos to get views and for people to comment. It just so happens that the real first time one of my videos actually got attention, 99.9% of the comments were all hateful. Over 100 comments rained in while it was up for less than a day. And I get why people were mad about what I said in the video, (I was saying that Jose Bautista was a dbag for threatening a rookie pitcher), but all these people took it way too far. Basically the comments were all about my looks, weight, etc. People called me fat, ugly, pig, cunt, twat. Most of them told me to go kill myself, or drown my self in the Hudson River with cinder blocks on my feet. Yep, it got really bad. Then some people had the nerve to keep going and message me, write on my channel wall, and even go on my formspring, which is posted in this blog, so you know that many came here too. I just don't get why they had to keep going over one thing I said. I get if you're a big fan of a team (as I am) but you have to understand that everyone has different opinions and to talk shit about them when you've never even MET them before is totally going too far.
I know I haven't posted in a while, but this needed to be said.
