lmao the mike.

jesus christ VLOG!=FORUMS.

someone killing himself because he's clearly mentally retarded is not the same thing as someone seeing their friend dying and assuming that's a good idea for a topic because clearly IT IS.

245 videos and he's still alive?

He'd have been dead already if this was real. Either way, I don't know him, so why should I show sympathy towards some moron who "drinks" nail polish and lead when nobody else showed sympathy towards The Mike (who is at least part of our community, and not some random stranger)? Let's not be hypocrites here. Sure this topic promotes discussion, but if there was a video of The Mike on youtube venting about the death of his dad's friend, we'd be doing the same.

Are you serious? Are you part of the youtube community or what?
this guy isn't just some jerk being stupid, this is him operating at the best of his ability. Also the nail polish and lead video is fairly recent, and the most noticible effect of lead poisoning is brain damage.
ALSO everyone showed sympathy to The Mike, the topic was closed because there wasn't any discussion not because we really didn't care one of his relatives was dying.
If there was a video of The Mike venting incoherently and ingesting poisons then we would not be doing the same, though I guess you're speaking for yourself?

Shut up about The Mike. I am getting tired of hearing about that!

plus there is a difference between someone attention whoring and someone killing themselves, not knowing what they are doing is wrong! then again, I am assuming he doesn't know what he is doing is wrong.

They said that my message to them was spam, so there must have already been an abundance of responses to that message, or they just don't give a shit. Nice going, Youtube.

oh come on dude, we don't even know you. kalar's 100% right, this is kind of a shitty topic. what do you expect, people are going to say anything other than GOOD LUCK TRAGEDY DONT GIVE UP ETC.

if we knew you or your friend we could give some advice or something more but as it stands, this is kind of attention whoring and I'd be mad if someone posted about my near-death on some forum I dont even go to!

not to say I don't feel for you but this is really kind of gay man. don't use your friend's possible death for a topic of discussion.

Dangerousned, that's what you said in The Mike's topic. Now, you told the Mike you could help him if you knew him or his friend, you could give him some advice, and that this is just him "attention whoring". Do you know the kid in those youtube videos? No. Can you help him or give him advice? No. Is he attention whoring? 245 videos say yes.

If he wanted to kill himself, he would have done it 244 videos ago. He knows he's getting attention and that's exactly why he does it.

And climbtree, I don't consider posts like those of dangerousned sympathetic. The Mike wanted some support, and instead he gets "lolz ur a fag dont post here dis is teh gamingw." So why is this topic here, if this is gaming world?

i dont think there's a way to help this guy honestly :(

like pulling his youtubes might prevent him from EATNG LEAD but if he's eating lead anyways his parents need to catch him doing this shit so he doesn't do it.

imagine some kid hearing GO JUMP IN A LAKE and taking it seriously!

you're a fucking idiot if you can't see the difference between a mentally retarded kid being goaded into eating paint and a stupid motherfucker posting about his friend's DAD dying so he can get e-comments instead of talking to someone who knows both parties involved.

or you're just a fucking idiot.

uh, he's talking about wwe in his videos, not ACTIVELY SEEKING ATTENTION. he didn't drink nail polish remover and eat lead because he wanted attention. he did it because he is retarded. not HAHA U'RE RETARFED. real retarded. the kind that needs help. and that's clearly what this is all about. this kid really, really needs help and it is apparent that you don't understand that, sarhan. he is doing absolutely none of this for attention, because otherwise he wouldn't have a million fucking videos about how john cena is his favorite wrestler.

Wow. Just wow.

I could tell from the first time I saw you post that you were just a stupid little child, but this post pretty much proves my initial impression. If you can't prove your point with a coherent argument, you resort to swearing or insulting.

I'm not defending the Mike. I thought his topic was stupid too. But so is this one. You guys just seem to care more about a random stranger than someone who's actually part of your own community (and don't use the "I'm part of the youtube" community argument. That's like saying "I'm part of the U.S. community").

Anyways, I'm done arguing with you if you're going to behave like a fussy little child. Grow up a bit and then we can talk.

Yeah let's keep discussing that so this topic gets locked too.

This topic should be locked. There's nothing any of you can do to help this kid, so why keep it open?

dangerousned why do you double post so much.

Also, I feel for the kid, if this is real. Im not one to believe everything that goes on in a youtube video. But if you wanna find out what his real problem is, maybe send him a video response? Chat with the guy, at least?
I dont know the undertones of his videos so...whatever.  :fogetshrug:

Actually, Sarhan, you are the stupid child. You obviously don't understand why this is upsetting. Why don't you come back when you've had some time to read this topic and study the videos? Maybe then you could understand?

Anyways, since we can't seem to get through to youtube, is there any other way we can get youtube to recognize this as a problem?
I don't want the kid to die or something, I think youtube would get even worse attention in the media then someone pointing out that they are completely ignoring the problem right now.

Alert some sort of media?

ok, i think it's really horrible when people weigh up things like this, but ok. The Mike's topic was to receive help to deal with the emotions or whatever of dealing with his dying friend, the best we could have done was really "cheer up buddy" and maybe a few "i've been there, it sucks but it gets better." People said Gaming world might not be the best place to get advice on coping with a death, are you going to argue against that?

this topic is about the internet watching and laughing at a mentally disabled kid poisoning himself. The fact you call it attention seeking makes it all the worse, he's not killing himself because a girl dumped him or something, he's doing it for the approval and entertainment of the internet. If you watch him drinking and eating you will notice he is still reluctant to do it. What if this was some 12 year old girl slitting her wrists (i'm pretty sure he slits his wrists btw, he has a knife he's shown several times and bracelets to cover the wounds)?
What if she had 245 videos where she cuts deeper and deeper? If she really wanted to do it, she'd do it on the first one right?
Maybe he doesn't want to do it, maybe it is attention seeking, but this is different because he is DISABLED

Why don't you give me all your personal details? There's nothing any of us could do to harm you, so why not post them?

At the VERY LEAST we can show that we DON'T APPROVE

What does this have to do with anything? You can actually do something harmful with personal information (identity theft, using someone's credit card, etc.). Tell me though, what are you going to do to help him?

Here's the last thing I'm going to say. You all say this is sad and upsetting, right? How many of you are actually going to care about this a week from now, when this topic dies down?

THE INTERNET IS REAL YOU GOOF

his latest video contains something that sounds almost like a suicide note, "I might just do the pig dance in front of the stop sign, in front of everybody" then he lists milestones.
There is a difference between caring, not caring or being detached, and idk ANTI caring, which is what the people of youtube are doing.

And who actually cared so much about The Mike? would they have cared for weeks and weeks and asked him "IS HE OK!?", no offense to you The Mike, btw

and if you honestly dont see the difference between kid who is eating lead and person making topic about relative who is dying

then you are lost to humanity.................my dear friend...............

Man... I so don't want the backlash from this...

I don't think Sarhan is arguing which EVENT is worse or better. I think he is arguing the hypocrisy of closing one thread for reasons which dictate this thread should be closed. Based on the reasons given in The Mike's thread, this thread (and five hundred times infinity others) should be locked as well.
