I don't watch many. Mainly the house tours or ones of people from here. If I wanted to watch youtube clips, I'd probably go to youtube to do it.

I like the dwellars' home made personal videos. The other videos haven't peaked my interest and from what I've been reading there may even be someone here who ought to have their YouTubes tied.

I have watched the Dweller Dwellings ones, (LOVE those!!) then a few of the ones in other places. None of the music ones and maybe 4 total of the Video Clips Thread. My time is limited too. When I'm typing away or reading the Cellar at my desk, I can pass it off as real work as long as the sound is off, which makes most of the videos pointless to watch.

My hunch was that they are less popular than they seem. It proves out. 40% of dwellars will almost surely not watch a given video, and for another 33% it's highly unlikely. Only one in four of us watch half or more.

And now I know why UT doesn't ban Dwellars. He can't find that frakkin' ban key.

I don't watch any of them because I get online at work and we aren't allowed to use headphones. I am NOT risking playing a video at work with the sound on.

I go through phases with youtube. I'll skip them for a bit and then do a catch up round during slow periods when there's not much going on in here and i have free time. Also, for a long time I couldn't access them, then when I was able to, I discovered all those vids that UT had posted and watched all of them.

Sometimes when I've watched a vid I look on the menu and see what else is there too.
