895 likes, 11,491 dislikes< ---- original, I went back to copy paste within minutes and another 15 dislikes.
There's certainly no way to pump up the volume with online polls and numbers.

Just an FYI, you have to sign in to vote on youtube and you can only vote once.
All us web illiterate old farts don't know how to get around that particular road block .
Because, well, we're old farts.

Okay, fine, it's a conspiracy to embarrass bigots and aholes by giving this privately-linked video a bad rating through creating multiple accounts and spending the day voting against it. Maybe that makes perfect sense to you.

I don't need fantastical conspiracies.
You don't have to load a poll with multiple users.
You can also select your users.
What kind of numbers do you think OWC would have gotten if they chose a Newegg forum to request hits instead of macresource ?
Apparently if I don't have a list of directing links to verify a driving force to influence numbers they conveniently don't exist.
That's damned convenient if you like being spoon fed what you want to believe.
Nothing wrong with believing what you want to believe, either.
Magicians take advantage of that human capacity all the time.

The poll you linked to allowed voters to vote once each day. So you are comparing Apples to Oranges.
I have never given a darn about the ratings on youtube and I suggest you do the same, instead of trying to prove they are manipulated (which they aren't) since it DOESN'T EVEN MATTER.

Honestly, everyone, who gives a sh*t what the rating on youtube is? It's like the people who get freaked out because an Eric Clapton video has 198 Dislikes. Get a life.

Yay! That was my point.

Why do they call a town with no black people Obamaville, anyway?
