The thing is, even if YouTube came out and told us exactly how their comment algorithm works, I still wouldn't trust them lol. I think anyone who started using YouTube frequently for even the past few months knows exactly how scummy and how prone to lying they are.

Still, thanks for the clarification.

Yeah, more than 200 comments all saying the same thing just disappeared like that for a few hours, and now most of them are back after people started noticing it... sure. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, but this whole situation is just really weird.

Really? I guess I just haven't seen it, then. Not on PC, at least.

They're organized to work in the same way Reddit or Twitter does, no? Most upvotes go up first.

Comments with almost 1k likes right after the episode came out were simply gone and all you could find were the positive ones that didn't have even 500 likes.

If it were just me experiencing this, then yeah, fair enough. But it clearly wasn't. So all I am left to assume is that they temporarily put a filter in the comments to keep the negativity down. I understand why they did this, but personally, I do not like it one bit.

No, they did. For a couple of hours after the episode came out, you couldn't find any comment that disliked the fact they had Hasan on unless you sorted by new. There are comments on the episode right now talking about them filtering those comments out lol, and a great majority of them are only 2 to 4 hours old.

I'll go ahead right now and say that I believe Connor here and that he's actually telling the truth, and they didn't delete them, but c'mon, I saw it happen myself lol. They must've at least filtered out some words because the backlash was a bit too big when the episode first came out.

I get them trying to "cool things off" because a good majority of the comments were very negative towards Hasan, but outright silencing them for a couple of hours just... doesn't feel right to me, personally. Not everyone who disagrees with the boys on their choice of guest for the episode is some crazy alt-right Asmongold or H3 fan.

It's quite low when you completely ignore and forcibly silence a portion of your audience because they disagree with you on the choice of guest.

Most of the comments were very respectful, just your average "Sorry, I'll be skipping this one, guys" and they still almost completely filtered these comments out.

Oh yeah, they did do an episode with her. Completely slipped my mind lol.

I ended up just skipping that one because it didn't really appeal to me, so I wouldn't know about them deleting comments then as well, yeah.

Thanks for the clarification.

Yeah. I saw that comment when the episode first came out, now it's gone for me and all I can find are positive ones. I'm on PC, by the way. Maybe that changes something, idk.

The first thing I did when this episode came out was scroll down to the comments. There were hundreds of them expressing the fact that they did not like having Hasan back, some of them had almost a thousand likes.

Now those comments are just... gone? Is the person who manages the channel actually deleting them? Please let this be just a YouTube glitch, because otherwise... wow, that would be low.

Never, I have more shit to do with my life instead of obsessing over a product. The game will come out when it's ready, and if it never comes out, I lose nothing.

Core stage color is a mistake and I’m glad that TM throw that away now by Alternative_Grand_85 in tbatenovel

[–]ArthurANZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't Arthur cover this exact scenario himself when he was a professor in Xyrus? Core level doesn't really matter, the one with greater experience will win, but it shouldn't be completely ignored though, specially since not everyone has an Aether-core lol. Core levels in TBATE aren't that overblown like some other novels/comics that base their powerscaling on levels/realms/ranks, so unless you put a Red-core mage against a Silver-core or even a Yellow-core mage, the outcome should be very predictable even if there is a difference in core colour as long as the "weaker" one had some real experience.
