Bio:
I enjoy long talks about popular culture, philosophy, politics, media- but short, short talks about computers, prime-time tv and "the latest thing". Always avoiding boredom, I distract myself with visual design, Chomsky and creatively-terrible movies. My avatar is of me taped by my roommates to a formerly-abandoned cross outside our apartment during a Hallowe'en party I hosted in 2003. More photos here. (I was later carried down the street 2 blocks and propped up against a Café where other costumed onlookers shared in the reveling. I later carried the cross back to the apartment while being whipped by a skeleton Halloween decoration by my Judaism-supporting roommate.)

Hmm, not sure. Can you tell me exactly what you have ticked on your filter page?

Hi Dag,

I selet "Hide Region Blocked videos" and I keep getting:
"failed to save your preferences - please correct the indicated errors"

with no errors indicated.

Thanks

Did I call you choggie? I thought I called you choggle. Hmmm. In any event, you are correct, it is a call for 250+. I stand corrected.

In reply to this comment by doogle:
I was corrected (by you? who called me choggie?) that that was only for Gold 250+

You don't need to call *discard. You only need to call *dupeof=[link] and that will automatically kill that video while transferring all votes to the original video owner.

No, there's no limit. And even if there was siftbot still should've sent you a PM.

In reply to this comment by doogle:
Maybe there's a limit to how many we can have? I had 3 at the time already. I was hoping to gather more for a major double-promote haduken, but realized I was missing out on getting another with time if I just waited. So I used them.

In reply to this comment by lucky760:
I have no clue whatsoever why siftbot put a medal on your video but didn't PM your or award a PP.

But I did manually award you 1 PP. Enjoy.


In reply to this comment by doogle:
Sorry,

my video got Top 15 but I didn't get a power point.

Please sir, may I have some more?

Is there a max to the number of power points we can have in storage?

Then perhaps you might want to down-vote this comment. She says she'll make an appeal on his behalf if it reaches ten, which it probably won't. Good comment, by the way.

In reply to this comment by doogle:
I am very reluctant to weigh in here,
had I not had the support and understanding of the admins here on VideoSift, I would have left VideoSift because of Choggie.

I avoid him here, and have always chosen not to partake in discussions.
Those who know me here would know it's not something I like to do. And I don't like it. And the sentiment is common with others as well.

Choggie may be the village idiot beloved by experienced site-goers (those posting here and all those reading this), but as you guys don't know how he harassed me (with private profile messages, downvoted all my videos, got someone else to as well, and threatened further repurcussions), I worry we can't know the extent of his damage to others, and possibility of continued damage.

He damages the Sift.
It's intolerable and inexcusable.
He knew it before, and he knew it then, yet he continued and even after permanent banning continued to continue.

He had his chances. And then some.

No hard feelings, then? I need to go back and double-check to see if I missed anybody else.

In reply to this comment by doogle:
Awww
In retrospect, my posting was an example of why you shouldn't drink & sift.

In reply to this comment by schmawy:
Oh doogle my dear, a simple oversight I assure you. You probably weren't the only one I missed. My appologies, as I certainly recognize you as an important member of this community. I shall take the customary stroll through your pq sometime soon. Please don't feel slighted.

In reply to this comment by doogle:
I'm feeling envious of your appreciation to others - I guess my postings awaiting your return weren't as thoughtful then. But wanted you to know anyway.
