By the way, did you know you cannot even block comments with YouTube? There used to be a Firefox extension but it no longer works. YouTube has actively disabled all extensions which tried to do that.

Oh yes you can. Do you see your comments on my YouTube? Cause I can assure you NO ONE ELSE DOES. Try to post a comment on my video and see if anyone else can see it. They can't. Both you and DFS who have tried to post and cannot. Feel free to try though. When you figure it out, you'll be that much closer to having learned the obvious I see instantly.

Snit thinks you can't disallow comments on a video on youtube? Wow, that's weird. I wonder how he explains this:

<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufBLI6bB9sg>

14 million views, not a single comment. And, uhh, "Comments are disabled for this video". I'm sure Apple used a "Firefox extension" to block comments :-D

Where do you think this is wrong. Be as detailed as you can be:

----- Really? Do you really think that your Firefox extension will still work? Why would YouTube allow to disable comments? They have activly disabled all extensions which tried to do that And the mere fact that you know about disabling comments (even if it does not work anymore) shows that you have tried to do just that. Because you can't stand having comments about your idiocy -----

-- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
