I don't know if this is allowed on this site, if it's not I apologize & feel free to delete this thread mods. But the person mentioned in the subject line is leaving a ton of videos, comments, messages and profile comments threatening physical harm. I for one, won't tolerate it. YouTube doesn't seem to care that someone is making threats of death and physical harm on their site... or at least not caring from a few messages to them. Some of his threats have been taken down, others are just scattered around people's profiles. If you have an issue with someone threatening other's lives on YouTube, please write YouTube and let them know. If not, or if it's something you'd rather not get into, that's fine. But please check it out and do what you feel is right for you. Thanks.  |

From my experience, of being on the internet for over ten years, the best way of dealing someone who is causing you problems on any site, any were, is to ignore them. Eventually they ALL do go away. YouTube gives you a Block User option, to help you with this. Unfortunately, by stating this this this thread, you did exactly the opposite, and are giving that person a lot of free publicity. By the time this thread runs its course, that persons popularity is sure to double, and I just checked that profile. He already has 44 subscribers. I agree with you 100% YouTube doesn't care about these type of problems. All uses of the site, are customers, and they want to keep them all. However they do offer a lot of tools to help with problems, like this. Here is a URL. www.youtube.com/t/safetySo you can block users, delete their comment, or even pre-approve comments. IMHO that seems adequate to me. I'm not sure what else could be expected from YouTube. Of course if you take threats serious. You always have the right to contact law enforcement, and take legal action against the person. That almost certainly going to be more trouble then it's worth. though. Anyway thats my opinion. I hope maybe it helps. |

I must be missing something - I thought all he does is prank calls and some transvestite stuff like morbeck? Didn't really watch any of his stuff as adaptor but he seemed to have a load of viewers. Wasn't aware of his threats.
Maybe if everyone who has received a threatening message could post them in this thread - if enough ppl are affected YouTube would have to do something.

i just saw the comment he posted to yr profile - it is clearly done in character. i'm sure it's annoying but i don't think it qualifies as a death threat if he is threatening you as a 250 pound black woman. just try to laugh it off & block him if you need to.

Oh honey, I'm not talking about the comment on my profile. He's made a few videos threatening to slit someone's throat, in his real voice, not his character voice. He's also sent me messages telling me he's going to hurt me... again, not in character. I understand ignoring the haters - but I can't ignore threats of serious physical harm. Like I said, you all can do whatever you want. But I can't sit without at least voicing my opinion. |

well hes always seemed a bit odd to me to say the least, but even so if it was me id ignore it. if he finds ways to harass you after you block him then definitely do something about it. or if it really bothers you email youtube about it. ill try & find some of these videos before i say anything else, ive never seen him do anything but stupid joke vids.
