    "who?"

    how about making doing this an infraction? every thread about a youtuber, the "witty" fools come out of the woodwork to show their superiority over not knowing who the youtuber is, when a cursory glance at google would suffice to answer that question.

    it's annoying as fuck, and i'd like to slap the people that do it.

    If you have to google a person when there's a thread on MMO about them then i'd say the "Who?" is justified.

    no, it's not. people likely know exactly who is being talked about anyway.

    they just do it to be fucking annoying.

    Then don't click the thread

    I know I personally don't make it a habit to try and read about people I don't know or care about.

    In the world today with a magic search box that spits you out virtually any information needed within 0.1 second of searching it, going "who is X" is stupid. Like asking what time it is with a watch on your wrist.

    Who are you and why should we think highly of your opinion?

    Don't make threads starting off like "omg k so, (some shit few people know) said this and that then did this". Never do that.

    Simply introduce the person you're making a thread about. Something along the lines of "So (some shithead) is a person I watch on Youtube who does videos on (subject) and I think they brought up some valid points. Here is what the points are."

    Therefore, people will understand who the hell you're talking about and won't be asking themselves (and you, much to your annoyance) who the hell you're talking about.

    It's just written words, you are overreacting.

    We're hitting autism levels that shouldn't even be possible.

    MMO-Champion is such a strange place.

    Youtubers are the scum of the earth, and if you keep bringing them up, that will always righfully earn you a well-deserved dose of flouting and demonstrative ignorance.

    Nobody cares what these grandstanting attention whores have to say. Any decent person is turned off by them. If you associate with themselves in some way, what are you expecting? Be smart.

    It's not 'being witty' if you legit have no idea who the person is talking about, and they go on without any context or background to explain it. The least people can do is post the damn video in question they're referring to and explain it a little bit, as well as who the person is.
