Besides, I can't find a single country that people care about in that list (apart from Botswana! People there need teh internet and videos!!). No biggy.
Now that was just rasist.

Ah, you city boys think everything else is a village... Just like one American from forum asked if we have cars in here :rolleyes: .
By your logic, why should Serbia have internet? Or macedonia, or any other small country?

Ehm, I'm not a city boy, I live on the countryside myself.

But ye, I ask myself the same question. Irrational people shouldn't have access to the internet.

He doesn't mean that every one of you would be irrational, read what he said.


Lukyas : How is he being irrational if he is thinking logically and ending in to an answer that is best for all of us? That is what's called rationality.

I mean, the internet is full of retards. Everywhere you go , there will always be some. And with this , i mean people that cannot think. ESF forums have at least one as well.

You think it is logically to think that poor countries like my own shouldn't have access to internet? Wow, your logic amuses me.

Also, the real world is full of the retards, as much as internet is. Even more.

Since when did i ever say that your people should not have acces to the internet?

You are mindlessly throwing your 'hatred' on me for correcting what Bolteh is thinking.

Sometimes it makes me wonder if you can even read what people say, Lukyas.

No, you didn't say it, but Bolteh did. I do not hate you. You are the one who hates me, you told me that about billion times :p . Why should I hate person I have never met?
Anyway, this is getting off topic so:

VEOH did something very stupid IMO. What's the point in banning countries when that means losing popularity in the world. They banned like, half of Europe. Even though there might've been little number of users in those countries, those are still users, and it seems not logical to ban them.

Wow, chill the **** out.

They banned countries with the lowest concentration of users. Did people from those banned countries submit videos? Probably. Were there enough people from those countries viewing the site to warrant keeping them within the fold? Obviously not. One or two users shouldn't be catered to. There is no market there. They made a sound decision. Stop complaining and move on. It isn't that big of a deal.

I do not understand what do they get by banning those countries? And I do not understand what good it brings to them. Seriously, can someone explain it to me?

Why do i get the feeling that if Grega would've said "***porn.com bans the following countries [...]" the same people would complain about it, even if they use that site or not?
