I resisted for a long time, but I finally got worn down by the placement and frequency of ads on YouTube. Not just on OTF, but on everything YouTube. While saving $ after retirement, YouTube Premium is about the only optional item I spring for. I hate to say that I am glad I went Premium because I feel like they whipped me, but whatever... Thanks to Bobby and crew, I really enjoy all the OTF content without intrusive interruptions. Hook 'Em! Nothing to do with politics but my wife and I have been listening to a book titled “Die With Nothing.” It is an interesting perspective that makes a lot of sense when you hear all the reasoning. 2 Quote

Seems a bit counter productive to me. If someone is mad over a political add on YouTube they are a Beta...... The thread started here the other day about it was embarrassing. 2 Quote

smokeyiii Posted February 24 Posted February 24 Being triggered by a political ad that doesn't align with your viewpoint just shows how soft we have become as a nation. 2 Quote

I do however wonder if you keep the same energy of calling people who you don’t know but disagree with Betas in person as you do from behind your keyboard/phone. Politics, name calling, and categorizing people as inferior are all things/content I can get anywhere if I want to. I’d prefer not to get any of it here. 2 Quote

One of the reasons I joined this site was because there is a zero politics policy on the sports board. I 100 percent support that stance.... As stated OTF has no control of the adds run by Youtube and to be triggered by them is odd. I have seen them and some are definitely of candidates I would never support. They did not bother me. To answer your other question. Yes I would definitely say that to a persons face. Anyone here that knows me knows I am the exact same person online as in person.... I do not hide behind a screen name. Never have never will. My avi is a pic of me. I attend home games and most road game. Attend Basketball and many baseball games too. Again I do not hide behind a computer.... thanks 1 Quote
dentonhorn Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Not that big of a deal. It’s free for crying out loud and YouTube places ads to make money . It’s a profit deal. 1 Quote
