I look at their subscriber count on YT (3M+) and assume that they either have someone else to monitor/screen it or just ignore it entirely. You'd basically have to have their DMs to even show up on their radar. I don't think they'd ignore you out of spite, it's just that the signal to noise ratio on something like that is really poor (i.e. lots of noise).

Speaking of "noise", for fun I took a few minutes and read some of the replies. I think I may have gotten your point now. A huge percentage of them are people commenting on either duct tape or the fact that a box moved by itself. Seemingly much less interest in the substance of the video as opposed to tidbits of 'humour' or "easter eggs'. Kind of a shame but I guess if that's what the people want, so be it. I never really scrutinized comments in videos before as I guess my interest laid in the content. That's what I like about places like Yarisworld...more pointed discussion/focus and less "noise". It seems that to appeal to a broader audience, and get the subscribers, 'style over substance' seems to be the approach. Don't get me wrong, they have the content, but by adding the 'style', what they gain in subscribers, they lose in depth or at least in the ability to engage in any deeper conversation about the topic. Or, they get the best of both worlds. I am truly naive when it comes to these things. I can be a little slow on the uptake at times, but think that's why some here have expressed that Youtube or Facebook don't hold the appeal when compared to forums, for example.
