Be happy that you can post a link back to your site. Webmasters are not the only source or legitmate content, WMs are the source of super short clips that piss off the users who are looking for real amateur content.

We considered filtering content by user type, blocking users from search results and searching videos by duration. All of these ideas were thrown out because it would result in much less WM content views. At this point there is no way to deliver what the users want without screwing you WMs out of views.

Is someone not happy about ad placement? Hmmm... It's our site, we choose where ads appear. I thought it was a great idea to shove the User Suggested Link inside the description, so we did that right from the start. Then I thought it would be better to give WMs a 120x60 button, so we did that too, and put it in place of User Suggested Link, in the description of the video.

The bottom line is XTube spends time thinking about how to please the WMs and the users, and Both groups bitch endlessly about how we don't meet their needs properly.

Suck it up people. We give you all a place to host your shit, link to it, embed it, discuss it, jack off to it, meet people, and all sorts of other cool shit.
