One of my favorite youtube knife reviewers is KnivesAndStuff. This is a man named Kyley from New Zealand who makes and reviews knives.
Recently some people have started cyberbullying him and he made a long video about it.

If you support Kyley and agree about what he says in his video, then please subscribe to him. He's got an awesome channel.
 
Kyley is a really talented knife maker. He knows his trade, and is innovative and makes really good knives. A shame that some punks send him messages like that.
 
Allright, so I skipped through it a little. Too much drama for my book.

The guy might not like the way people treat him and/or disagree with him. But he can filter out the crap he doesn't want to see. Just a giant youtube flamewar is what this is. I'm not going to bother with the guy. I don't dislike him. But he just doesn't mean anything to me or my life.

Still wish him the best with his issues, whether his own or caused by others.

Hehehe. I'm with you. It's just that when you put something out there, you have to take the good with the bad. You deals with it the best way you cans. :D
 
I seldom watch YouTube reviews, but I know Kyley as a positive force in the knife community.
I wish him the best of progress in his buisness!

Regards

Anyone who posts a video to YouTube is begging to be attacked by trolls and idiots. If he didn't expect this kind of stupidity then he hasn't been using the Internet very much.

The beauty of virtual "bullying" is that it can be ignored.
 
Wow! Seems like all kinds of drama coming down. I like checking YT for
knife reviews, etc. and have come across videos regarding the one mentioned in this thread as well as an earlier thread about the worst YT reviewer. From what I can tell, everyone involved with making these vids have graduated high school a long time ago.
 
Well this is all a bit pathetic really, dude needs to get out more buy the sounds of it.
 
Is this a joke ? I don't get it. :confused:

That guy need to go down to the pond and look at the water and some ducks backs. :rolleyes:

"Cyberbullying," among adults, is 100% avoidable. You simply ignore it. I know from past experience as a professional blogger that it's not the easiest thing to do -- it must be learned through unpleasantness like this. However, posting a video discussing your detractors is the biggest mistake you can make, as it shows you've completely bought into the fabricated drama. YouTube is one of the greatest resources of the connected age, but patrolling the comments there will make you crazy.

My advice to Kyley is to worry about knives, not strangers on the Internet.
 
If you want to see the worst humanity has to offer, just read the comments section of a youtube video.
 
All I can say is WOW.

I can understand why Kyley responded the way he did, to try and protect his online reputation, but in doing so gave the other person the attention they were most likely seeking.

Moral of the story: social media is a double edged sword and must be used with great caution if real names and businesses are used.
