Fwd: Tanath9 sent you a message: Comments disabled?
I didn't set comments to disabled but I find I don't feel strongly one way or the other. Thoughts? If we want to turn them on, any one willing to help with moderating?

Comments can provide valuable feedback, which I hoped to provide... only to find you disable comments for your videos. Disgraceful. Based on above, suggest keeping it disabled. More seriously: 1) comments are not meant to provide feedback I guess you'll get too many negative comments and censor accusations 2) this person does not abide by the Code of Conduct 3) we should ensure all our communication channels follow the Code of Conduct 4) assume moderating for CoC is a lot of work People should have the impression that GNOME is friendly and open. I do not like rants, negativism, long useless discussions, etc. So moderation has to be done multiple times/day. Once a week is not enough. Though best to request feedback where the users are; IMO there are too many people with too much time on their hands. Further, I doubt those people reflect our users. -- Regards, Olav -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list

I originally disabled the comments (Bryen helped, I think) because we were getting comments and we didn't have the capacity to effectively moderate. And I didn't want negative comments sitting below our videos. The problem with turning comments on is that we need to moderate reliably and consistently. It's an ongoing commitment.

By experience I don't think is worth to spend efforts moderating. For me the number of I like and people who marked as favorite is good enough feedback.

Re: Fwd: Tanath9 sent you a message: Comments disabled?
I don't really care about comments being on or off - personally I'd keep it off too. Too much wasted time moderating them. As Olav said there are too many people with free time and I would not listen to someone's comment who does not have the courtesy to write 2 decent sentences. I don't see a reason for this kind of rant, and it is no way of writing to someone.

Re: Fwd: Tanath9 sent you a message: Comments disabled?
We turned it off after getting spammers and strollers almost immediately after posting the first video. A testament to the popularity of GNOME :+) In any case moderation on a site like YouTube is a time suck and not worth the time of all of us who volunteer and actually have a life. (Yes, I've heard rumors that some of you have lives.)
