whetstone makes funny, well crafted ytmnds. He also makes blatanly false, misleading, tactless sites. This is also a privately owned website. Petitions have no place here. Anyone that max doesn't want here will have no place here. It isn't your call and, judging from past experience, he doesn't value your opinion. whetstone is just an extremely sheltered kid who has no idea how to communicate with the world outside his church on matters of faith and reason.
You lose again. You can't just announce the ability to not see his YTMNDs as irrelevant. Maybe that's what you should do. I think you are annoying, and you should be banned, with that logic. If you don't like what he's doing, you need to shut up and stop whining like a little girl with a spoon up her ass. He is free to do so as long as he remains on this website.
Let me make this perfectly clear. You are being a hypocrite. Plan and simple. Take a look at yourself and what you are saying and apply it from Whetstone and to yourself. You talked about Whetstone's sites making people angry, well darn it, Racist and Porn Sites make me angry? Should we then get rid of those? If yes, then put your energy into getting those removed. His site
oh drop it already, you ARE being a hypocrite because you say he needs to keep his beliefs to himself, but you keep making pointless ytmnd's about him, they arent funny, they arent creative or anything, according to the rules of site making the last 3 of your sites (minus the end one) should be deleted.
I'm sorry I don't agree with your rebuttal about censorship. You state that you are "suppressing" him because he is forcing his ideas but this is still censorship even if he is doing something I would consider sh*tty. Another thing you should make note of is that I think this kind of talk will make people sympathetic towards whet and undermine your original goal. My final point is that censorship is detrimental in a community where creativity should be encouraged! Damnit man
As I've been stuck home all weekend with the flu, I read ALL the comments under the first post. I find it odd that the OP failed to mention that, while many people may have voted 5, the MAJORITY OF COMMENTS clearly stated "leave Whetstone alone", for various reasons. Perhaps people misunderstood the "5-stars = you want Whetstone banned" concept, but the comments speak for themselves. Leave the dude alone. Period. End of discussion.
Look, I don't like whetstone's religious tripe any more than you, but you are now as annoying as he is. I agree with other posters that you ARE a hypocrite and what you are doing is VERY similar to whetstone. Yes, we get it, you want to ban whetstone, and that's your belief and that's fine. But stop trying to convince the rest of us that your vison of what YTMND is what we all should share. Get over yourself and go back to making Sean Connery fart sites like the rest of us.
So Whetstone's a dick. Are we going to ban every YTMNDer who fits that description? There'd be no one left here! If you see a whetstone site, you know you won't like it. So just don't watch it.
Besides, he probly faps at night thinking about how we're all 'persecuting him for his faith'. Ignoring him is clearly the best way to deal with it.
If your beliefs are changed by a YTMND video, you're either an idiot or the beliefs you had really weren't beliefs to begin with. Honestly. If you're doing this just because you think Whet violates some moral internet code about what should and not should be put on YTMND, the fact that Max has yet to ban him should shut you up.
Whether the majority of users like what he says or not, banning him IS censorship. The fact is that some users DO like his sites, and though his arguements are complete crap, He hasn't done anything wrong. He has simply attempted to sway the opinions of others. The greatest thing about YTMND is that anyone, dumbass or professor, can say whatever the f*ck he wants. American laws dont give him that right, Max does; but it's that freedom that has made YTMND such a popular site.
I find it odd you accuse him of shoving his beliefs down our throats, as anyone who clicks on his sites does so of their own free will. So I offer a simple solution: Don't watch his sites.
Not that I'm on his side or anything, personally I share his beliefs but that whole Cries of the Infidels thing was a little much.
goddamn you're a douche bag. Lets not try to read too far into what other people believe, if they voted a one then obviously they don't have sand up their vaginas and want some guy banned. He has made no crime, trying to persuade people to his religion? THATS WHAT EVERYONE DOES YOU STUPID F*CK. If i recall, muslim people tend to react violently if you aren't part of their religion, so why bitch if some guy makes an internet site about it?
I give you ZERO stars for this "petition". It's athiest *ssh*l*es like you that make me sick. I don't consider myself Christian, but I am Agnostic. Honestly though, how can you call yourself a person of freedom if you try something like this?! EVERYONE is entitled to their beliefs, and EVERYONE is given the freedom of CHOICE. You CHOOSE to view his ytmnd's and then you CHOOSE to be an *ss and get all hissy about his beliefs. Really what you should consider doing is CHOOSE to ignore him. The End.
"if you post another ytmnd about religion, whether it tries to be humorous or not, i'm banning you. i'm tired of getting complaints, and it seems no form of punishment seems to keep you away from it. i have no doubt that you'd love to go down as a martyr though." - Comment by max, http://ytmnd.com/sites/profile/624239
