Who cares about views? Enjoyment is what YOUtube is for.

Besides the point. There will always be trolls as long as people can think and hate. There's no use getting sad or mad at them (much less taking note of them) Showing them that you are hurt will bring more onto your channel regardless of what happens. Its better that you enjoy what you do and have fun :3

Trolling is like the modern version of prank calling...

Try being a troll for a day, I did once just to see why they do it... it was actually kind of funny.... I didn't do any of the "go kill yourself" posts, but I said totally stupid comments and just stirred up a bunch of people with controversial comments. After a while you can just sit back and watch other people argue. I am in no way a troll, but in my day in the troll shoes I can see why they do it, it's all for the reaction

So I recently started watching and leaving nice comments on YouTube videos who were posted within the past couple of days that are the typical ' my first video ' posts. I wish when I post people would comment nice things but that's not here nor there. Anyways.. typically the videos are tweens or teens just making hello introductory videos.. and I have noticed there is this one troll who basically does the opposite of what I am doing leaving REALLY harsh critiques on first videos to the point of harassment. I just don't understand why some people think that it's okay to just harass and in this case bully. I mean I can handle it.. but it was my first video and I was 14 and got a comment saying ' your video sucked, you're a ****, go kill yourself' it'd hurt and really discourage me from making more.

Idk maybe it's just me wishing trolls didn't exist and that people weren't so mean. :/

Rant over!

Ignore trolls. They've nothing better to do. The best way to mediate this would be ignoring them. Don't give in to them and give them the attention they want from you, which is a reply at least. :)
 
Go to that particular comment, delete and then block user. End of sadness. Beginning of new awesome creative videos.
Trolls don't even deserve to have their own thread. They are not that special. Keep doing what you doing. Keep in mind that the more you grow on YouTube, you will have a significant growth in likes and dislikes. They come hand in hand. good luck :)
 
Trolls will be trolls. Just frustrating not only for me but for people who are new to YouTube putting up their first videos and having the first comment, first view be someone who is going to light them up with hate.

I agree they can be funny and they can definitely make you grow (the constructive ones at least) because they will say everything that everyone else is thinking.

PS. I didn't think I'd get this many responses, ya'll rock. ;)
