Re: Call to Ban YouTubers
Like this world needs more love and treating each other better for. I’m not trying to bash or insult anyone, or make them feel “inferior” because they not. I just don’t approve of the technique they use. Someone recommend to clean my steering wheel using APC and taking a toothbrush, look at my steering wheel now . Yes I’m a little upset, could be worse, but I think we need to teach each other right, instead of trying to make money misleading others.

Look at post #4 of this thread. Look at FUNX650 signature at the bottom of his posts. Words to live by.

Yeah I'm not at all a fan of an APC on interiors. Only time I would even consider it would be if I were detailing someone's absolutely hammered car. Even then I'd be very careful.

Call to Ban YouTubers

That would’ve been me.. Thank you, and you guys are all welcome.
Afaik, Still to this day he has never posted a single message on this forum outside of his shameless video thread plugs..
I haven’t watched any of his vids in a long time but the thing I remember that always stood out to me was how his so called “reviews” weren’t reviews at all, more like word for word regurgitating of the product label descriptions. It’s as if he was simply holding up brand new bottles and the review consisted of whatever the label claimed as far as performance and durability.
There’s no such thing as pros and cons with that guy, because he’s too much of a brown noser to ever say anything negative about any product. Why even call it a “review” if you’re afraid to be honest and keep it real?
It’s not too hard to provide an honest review without offending some people you may know at any given company... It’s called having a Spine.

Re: Call to Ban YouTubers
I just avoid going into their posts and that’s it for me. Banning seems a little radical because there can be some useful ones.

Re: Call to Ban YouTubers
To be honest, there's a few youtube videos that I have watched such as Esoteric. However most of the videos I've seen on youtube, there's a few educational ones but product reviews I ignore. How is someone going to tell me about how durable a product is when your video is 20 minutes and you just applied it? I'm always suspicious of the reasons why they made the videos. Especially when I've used the product and I just roll my eyes at the results they claim they get and I know it's no where near it.

Create a "Shameless Plugs" forum and move offending posts to that forum.
