Seriously? The thing about YouTube is a creator can make a vid anyway he/she wants with their flair or personality. As for what you watch, comments you leave that is entirely on you. No one holds a gun to your head and says click me, watch me, comment on me. Me for example, I enjoy watching mre reviews but my main thing is over landing.....if there is a channel I don't care for, I don't watch it. Period. Much less take the time to drop a comment. And while we are on the comments...I too remove comments from time to time. My filters are set pretty darn high (mainly for swear words since I try to keep it family friendly) but occasionally one slips through or someone drops a heil hitler or some other political or religious nonsense. As my fellow youtuber Justincredible says my channel is a dictatorship not a democracy! He actually approves every post.....I don't have any time for that but that is dedication to your channel.

I too have eaten things out of order....I think with the same ration in fact and I spell countries names wrong all the time, my last German EPa in fact. My point is let the creator try, experiment and develop their own style and format. If it works for Nathan and it's his channel then that's how it's going to be. Constructive feedback is always helpful, I constantly get "Steve is great, you suck!" Well I tend to agree with them.....Steve puts out some amazing, descriptive content that has made many of us step up our game. We all have benefited from his success and I will always be one of his Number 1 supporters just like I will support any man, woman or child that does a ration review on YouTube or elsewhere.

My whole point is I like being part of this community because it is rare you can find a place anywhere where you don't have some faction arguing or fighting with another over some abstract thing. Now I need to get moving out as I typed all this before my first cup of coffee....remember, it's just a YouTube vid.

Cheers
I agree with you in spirit.

The problem is when someone like Nathan engages in pure click bait and offensive trolling that damages the entire review community.

If we want the community to continue to grow, and have a good reputation, this is the kind of thing that people hate to see. This kind of thing also attracts the types that we don't want, that typically cause problems.


But remember lesson #1 of the internets: DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS

Seriously the best way to deal with this is NEVER CLICK...EVER!

Personally I found it crude. Imagine how outraged we would be if kiwidude came back with a USA review, bashing on the US soldiers and our food.
Although the video intro was made in jest, it was still rude, and made the entire community look bad. I have never loved Nathan's MRE as much as others but I have never disliked him as a person and I am putting this off as a rude blunder and I hope he goes out of his way to fix it.
Killed by rancid pound-cake. I know that will be on my tomb stone.

I don't think anyone here dislike him as a person because we don't know the guy, maybe he is a best guy to grab a beer in a pub or will watch your back when Millwall FC fans appear. But part that we do see and I don't understand is him labeling ration ultra rare because it's rarely seen on Amazon. Or doing no research whatsoever and by research I mean sometimes it just takes to use translator app in your hands once more or google a two minutes more. The attitude you can leave only nice comments or you will be banned is hilarious, but the guy does just that he is removing comments that say dude wtf, not just insulting ones. Nobody here can say I ever attacked him but thanked him for his review, information or I gave more info about something or helped someone. Gundog here knows I asked him tons of questions during last few years and never had problem to learn from someone that knows more. There is that type you can learn from and there is type eating repro ration saying maybe it's a real one, saying how amazed by ex-soviet nations food he is, but can't difference rice from barley, or eating halal meal saying animal needs to be crucified then killed to pass as halal food.
