No, the person that posted that youtube channel is you. What are you talking about?
 
Shouldn't this thread be moved to Relationships?

Open that link up again and look near the upper left corner.
The YouTube channel poster is someone named tribdog.

See it? That's NOT me. I don't even have a YouTube channel.

I only posted a link here in PF to someone ELSES channel in YouTube. get it?

I posted the LINK. I am not the AUTHOR of that link channel.

Jeeze, so if I post a LINK to Microsoft am I automatically the AUTHOR of that link content ?

If you can't get the VERY CLEAR difference, then, well, nevermind.

Forget it. I posted my suggestions for the OP. I am no longer interested in your bizarre ramblings. Apparently you know nothing about either YouTube or how embedded LINKS work here or on any web-site forum. Later...

I will not further respond to you on this as of NOW.
Have a nice day.

It definitely should be moved to Relationships. I see a relationship in a making.

I'm afraid I don't get you either. The Youtube page I see is tribdog's. That's what it says.

Thank you Dave.

Jeeze, it's REALLY NOT HARD TO UNDERSTAND.

I am NOT the AUTHOR of http://www.youtube.com/user/tribdog . Tribdog is !
I, pallidin, merely posted a link to his channel for the hopeful benefit of the OP.

How much of 1+1=2 is not understood?

But.. what IS tribdog? Are you implying you are tribdog?

Dont flaunt numbers, I was told 0! = 1! I still haven't recovered from that.

How is he implying anything? Clearly, after the OP asked for tribdog, Pallidin simply Googled "tribdog" and found that hit, so he's brought it here.

BTW, tribdog is a long-standing member here at PF. Haven't seen him in a looong time.

If he knew he was tribdog and that he had a youtube page and that it would show up on google search, then ergo, he is tribdog

QED

...he simply Googled tribdog and that hit came up. Zany!

Strangely, a Google of tribdog brings up the YouTube page as its number 1 hit.


(Maybe we need to introduce some of these PF newbies to this newfangled thing we call Google, whaddya say Pallidin?)

Dave, I seriously couldn't stop laughing after no-one but you would get this very simple help moment. Really! My wife kicked me out of the house for a few moments. I could not stop laughing.
This is classic, Dave, hope it's saved...

Let us review.

When you write something in a thread, and hit the "reply" button. That is called a post. You made a post that contained a youtube channel. Therefore, following logic, you are the channel poster and tribdog is the link of the youtube user channel you posted

Got it?
 
  • #26
lol this is hilarious...MotoH made a pretty vague and bad joke...but people are taking him seriously...XD

MotoH is only arguing semantics (e.g. what does Channel poster mean; either the person who created the channel, or the person who posted about the channel), you need not pay attention, he understands very well that the creator of the Youtube Channel is not pallidin.

Since we're arguing over semantics anyways and nobody's actually failing to understand the other, how can a post contain a channel? How can tribdog be a link? How can you post a channel?

Look at this link: http://www.youtube.com/user/tribdog

Do you see the word "channel" anywhere? Yes!

So, let me get this straight. If I posted a picture of Farrah Fawcett, that makes me a Farrah Fawcett poster?

farrah-fawcett-poster.jpg



Ha ha. No, seriously. You are totally wrong MotoH.

Of course it does, Dave. You provided the link, thus, YOU ARE THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR!
...apparently in some minds, that is...

I'm a Farrah Fawcett poster? In that case, I fold, spindle and mutilate myself...



(What's a poster got to do around here to get a thread locked??)

Mash the "report" button and give a really, really, really good reason? Just a guess. But there it is.

Dave, no need to get this thread locked. It's much too humorous.
Can't believe that I(and you) can post a link and have it "author-twisted" as much as it has done here.

Good one MotoH! Seriously! I love it!

But, your still wrong...

he "posted" (aka linked) a channel, thus he's a channel poster (using the literal meaning of posted) common now, that took me 5 seconds to figure out
 
  • #41
Yeah, pretty sad, huh?
I do a simple Google search to help someone FIND someone and I get blasted with all kinds of weird stuff from many people(except Dave and other's) Humor aside of course...

That's what I'm trying to figure out. I think he is an imposter.

What I find interesting is that almost every thread tribdog started was sooner or later locked and tribdog banned. Seems like it doesn't take tribdog in person for the thread to become a risky one, it is enough to mention his name.

Yeah I got it at first glance too. It was kinda funny.

It's not the same as the 'farah fawecett' attempt. That's not funny at all. What made MotoH's comment funny was that he was saying that tribdog was the Channel Poster and he was saying YOUR the channel poster so that means YOUR him.

No one made any comments about farah fawcett which would make it remotely funny to say that you are her poster, that's just stupid. I'm not sure if Dave is just trying to be sarcastic to rub it in pallidins face that he didn't understand Moto's joke or what. It makes no sense to be making jokes bout being a Farrah Fawcett poster though. Sorry.

I got a more epic one, but it has some rather profane language:
