I've seen so many garbage posts upvoted, it's depressing. Then you see one word comments also upvoted like crazy. It takes a lot of wind out of someone's sails (as a newbie) to pour your heart into something and get maybe 5 views and $0.06 in votes and then see the type of thing I mentioned.
The worst are people that link to an existing youtube video with like 2 sentances worth of their own commentary. Then you look at the other posts by that author and see they are cranking 10+ of this type of thing out every day.
Yes these aspects are definitely dis-heartening and are part of why I came up with my idea , these types of users and content is what causes a lot of these issues, we don't live in a perfect world and some of these people even think what they did is good...
