| Blue Skies User ID: 19168576 United States11/14/2012 07:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm with you OP. To many videos......At least put an explanation with the video, for those of us who don't have the time or desire to watch them. Music videos are the worst. What you see and hear in it, may not be what others do......Explain how it makes you feel. I do appreciate when some one gives a time of where the action is, so we don't have to watch three minutes of video to see something that occurs in the last thirty seconds.

I usually close a windows even if the topic sounded interesting, if it's a video. I'd much rather read the information than be stuck watching, unless there is something important to convey that simply doesn't lend itself to text very well. Quoting: J-Rod Me too. Watching a webcam recording of some guy talking to the camera is useless. You can't do it at work and the presentation is more than often just too disorganized for you to get anything solid out of it. To make matters worse, the proof that videos claim to provide often comes without any references (books, articles, news, interviews,...), and if there are references, they tend to lead to another video of a guy talking and not providing reliable references. |

Quoting: J-Rod actually, if wewere a caring/thoughtful forum we would do both, because people with dial-up cannot, actually, even watch the video's. Videos like this cannot be talked out, theyare a dramatization (a show, and meant to be a show): Growing Up Jewish: [link to www.youtube.com] |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27611142 United States11/14/2012 09:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sometimes the video gives information that would be difficult to explain via text (aka a graph, photo or chart), helps set the mood for the post, or provides an easy way of saying what the person is trying to say with text (like this).

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27700137 United States11/14/2012 09:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Post the video at the end. After you summarize it. It is presumptuous to just post a video. It's an annoying character fault. If what you have to post is so important, then explain it first instead of being a lazy asshole and expecting thousands of people to waste time watching a video. |
