this episode of technobuffalo is brought to you by Linda calm what's up everyone welcome back to the episode of renter's rants I'm rios john renters to the show where I rant and rave on something or the technology or somehow peripheral II touching or related to the world of technology like a first cousin of the world of technology of this week I want to talk about you in particular in previous weeks I've ranted and raved on how mean of the internet is a particular how mean YouTube comments can be but you deserve a pat on the back I think you might be getting nicer this is rengar's rants gonna get started the Internet is a wonderful place and Sebastian of learning a place to share information to just check out crazy new things and a best place in the world to see videos of guys getting hit in the balls and it's also a place where you can get bullied where people have an outlet to unleash just crazy hatred and vitriol like you would never believe and I've talked about that in the past I how it's a really hard thing to do to be a video producer content producer have to deal with that content that's a deal with those a negativity and have to find a way to force yourself throw would have your skin get thicker and thicker and thicker without it chipping away from you and for me personally it's been really hard to do that it was really hard the first couple years I did this I'm a pretty sensitive guy if you didn't know sort of hearing all these awful things like Android is the best you were an awesome human being and you and your family should rotten a horrible horrible pit of death and despair crazy things that you wouldn't expect a normal human being to say to another human being and we've talked about it and now I can kind of say that I think YouTube is getting a little bit nicer at least on our videos things seemed to be getting a little bit more civil baby steps I'm not saying everybody super nice and we're living in rainbow land with unicorn farts coming out of the sky talking a little more common decency as being shown in YouTube comments and I kind of appreciate it so I put up a video while back talking about my updated thoughts on the microsoft surface pro and windows 8 as a whole to summarize that video I kind of changed my mind i kept using the surface pro my home computer wasn't working and I really realized after a while abusing I liked it and I liked Windows 8 my opinions that I had initially didn't really hold up anymore so I didn't update a video I figured I've got the right to change my mind so people were commenting oh you know nice things for doing that then there was the obvious stuff oh how much did Microsoft pay you or windows sucks you should go kill yourself kind of things another thing all those negative comments are getting voted down and marked the spams not even showing up anymore trying to see that happen more and more and more in our videos sometimes I'll go in and I'll reply the trolls and I know I shouldn't the more I do the thicker my skin gets but eventually you can make it you can get in there and I get upsets what you want some questions my integrity like how much did someone pay you to change your mind and not only is that awfully illegal it's also super unethical I consider myself to be a pretty ethical person and if anything is sponsored we obviously have to disclose all that we do sponsored content but we always tell the audience it would never masquerade a video as something that it wasn't and something that you know I get called out on something like that or threatening or something like that it really gets me I don't know why because I try so hard to sort of operated company at a high level of ethics and I don't know just it always gets me things like that I would reply to it's like to see the internet being like hey you're a wrong person so I just want to pat you on the back youtube sing really are literally a rant more of a thank you and a hey
