...of being here waiting for admins to give the user, (formerly known as choggie), some basic, operating power back.
When, boys? Times' a wastin'...Please, take a fucking poll if it helps to speed things along....I will remind the site and all her users, that decisions made here shape the site's future. Anyone who would like to have direct questions from choggie relative to this post answered on this thread.... feel free to ask here.

I remind anyone in the know how patient and long-suffering we are.

One of the reasons sited for termination was:

"Rick falls behind in responding to customer e-mails because he spends too much time watching youtube videos"

I was very offended so I made myself clear.

I said: "Scott (my boss), I haven't gone to youtube even once since I started working here. Go ahead and check the log."

Didn't want to work for them anyway. Pricks...

Hey well-wishers.....Until choggie's probationary status is lifted, he is unable to perform properly and efficiently. Can't re-rase comments from users clogging his personal profile, (some old as dirt, others banal and self-destructive), can't privatize comments (which we can't imagine why this restriction even matters with all the cut-and-pasters and ignorers out there), and he can't FIX DEAD VIDS WITH NEW EMBED CODES-Which is what he would like to do before they die.

Choggie received some auto-generated e-mails this AM from siftbot, reminding that a number of his published viddies are dead-Choggie checked, the embeds are out there for most of them. Perusers with good-intentions or otherwise in their stalwart efforts to keep the sift free of clutter have started a clock-o-tikkin' he is helpless to smash with a hammer.

Would anyone like to help fix some of them??? He would be most gracious, as always, to return the favor in kind once his restrictions are removed.

The developer of the game World of Goo has made an offer that games shouldn't refuse. In honor of the 1 year anniversary of the game, they are selling it for donations until Oct 19th - you can donate what you feel is right and get a free license for the game.

The game is very amusing and I recommend it for everyone. I've bought it for $5, what will you give?

Don't know if any of you have run across this fun anomaly.

Here's some light humor for ya - if you click on "Members" then click on any of the page numbers, say, 2, 3, 4. It doesn't matter.

Then you can pretty much type anything after that and it will be recognized as the new page you're looking at.

For example:
http://www.videosift.com/topusers?pg=8brycewi19rocksthesift
or
http://www.videosift.com/topusers?pg=8yes,brycewi19isagreathumanbeing
or even
http://www.videosift.com/topusers?pg=8allhailthehypnotoad

Go ahead, have fun with it.

Until its novelty wears off after a few minutes.

That stuffed his stocking.

Teacher, poet, well-known lounge whore and all-round good guy, JiggaJonson has soared through the ranks of siftdom to arrive at the ruby station. He received his lovely jewel and commented "where's my parade!?", and here it is!

JJ is an avid lounge user and I have had many talks with him there. He's really a nice fella, who all the schoolgirls swoon over. He has his opinions, which have resulted in both roses and tomatoes thrown at him, but he's always come back smelling of daffodils.

He's got over 70 videos in his personal queue and usually a bunch in his queue too.

Here are his Dungeons & Sifts stats:

Not much of a dead pool fixer, but a nice ratio of comments about 1 quality per 50 boring rants.

Let's all encourage him to make a great channel and give it up for JiggaJonson!

Stealing the idea from rottenseed, I have eight promotes waiting to enhance the state of eight videos, and I want to give them to you.

So...

Tell me a good, true story from your childhood. You know, those memories that stick with you forever? Yeah, those.

Eight winners, eight great stories of childhood bliss.

Go.

We have another crown in our midst, siftizens, and it's none other than Monsieur Arvana. By now everyone who's been here for more than a few months knows his name. He's the dude who routinely brings us some of the most interesting and most entertaining videos the net has to offer. That arvana. (You know, the one who reminds you of Jeff Bridges. Or maybe it's just me. Hey, I still remember his long-haired look, and even then he reminded me of Lebowski. Sort of. Or Patrick Swayze. Just ask rottenseed. Except he's alive. Arvana, that is.)

Okay, so where was I? Oh yeah, arvana just got a thousand stars, so I whipped up this half-assed shopped photo of him. Blame it on Monsieur John Daniels for its amateurish....ness. And my lack of shopping skills. But give it up for arvana while you're at it. He deserves it.

And here's my recent favorite arvana video, so vote it up if you haven't done so already. It's been such a long time, baby.



Our little boy is growing up! EndAll now has his ruby. Who says pot heads can't get anything done????

If you have spent time any amount of time talking to Ollie, you know that he is a wonderful and lovely person. Not only is he fantastic but he also is the youngest sifter that I know of. I have had the pleasure of talking to him on many occasions and I can tell you without a doubt that he is a quality member of the sift. His contributions have been many, and I am willing to bet he will be one of of crowned members in the not too distant future. He also loves a good conspiracy and has a bit of the art bug in him.

So get his PQ sifted and leave him a note. Take a drop by his Flickr to see some of his art work as well.

Ollie you are a real treat and, on behalf of the entire community, thanks for being a part of the ever growing family!!!

P.S..... I don't do HTML or else I would have done a picture, sorry Ollie.

Hello Happy Sifters!

Happy Channel owner Issykitty here, and my dearest then-fiance dystopianfuturetoday and I had been away on vacation for some weeks in the good ol' state of Montana, USA.

Last night we made it to the state of Nevada...

and earlier today we made a few stops in the city of Las Vegas to obtain a marriage license and then went on to have a civil ceremony that took place at about 2:30 pm (Pacific Time). What I'm trying to say is that I am now legally and officially MRS. DFT as of today, and we are very overjoyed and elated to share the news with all of you!!!

Condolences to Kronos and Blanky.


Now, congratulate us!!!

But griefer posted this two days earlier:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Obama-And-Helen-Thomas-Have-The-Same-Birthday-Wish

Same event, but, because it was covered by about two dozen photographers there, it was bound to be caught at different angles.

Should this be considered a dupe or do they stand alone?

The Daily Dish, by Andrew Sullivan, is one of the most popular blogs on the Internet, winning Best Blog in the 2008 Weblog Awards. Anything it links to will get a considerable amount of exposure. Today one of his substitute bloggers linked to the Craig Ferguson rant on VideoSift in a post . Not only did he mention the Sift by name, but he quoted EDD's video description.

Congratulations to EDD, and to everyone involved with this excellent site!

VideoSift just crowned another member, brothers and sisters, and this one is a man of the people. It's none other than Sift newsman and politico NetRunner, Now many of you know that NetRunner started his meteoric rise a little over a year ago, but actually he's been here for almost 3 years. That is, if you can trust his birth certificate. In any event, he's brought us a lot of great political discussions via his video selections, and his News channel has become a valuable addition to this place. He also brought us Mrs. NetRunner, better known as mintbbb, and even though she's taking some time off she's also brought a lot of great videos to this place. They've both had a very positive impact on this place, so I'm really glad that NetRunner decided to become active.

So let's congratulate our Obamunist friend, unless you want him to send you to the gulags Obama is having built at this very moment. He's already mad with power, I tell you.



Ponceleon might not be a 3-year-veteran of the Sift (then again who knows, he might've been a long-time lurker (or even... mlx! gasp!) before he joined), but he's definitely become one of the most likable folks around.

If there's anything really important I've learned about this Prius-riding, left-leaning, videogame-playing Bostonian (apart from the fact his username has two 'e's in it - which I managed to be unaware of until today ), it's that one of his life-long ambitions is to engage in intercourse with animals. But hey, let's not jump to hasty conclusions and label him a pervert right away, it's not like he's some sicko who'd eat a pizza with cutlery, you know...

Where was I? That's right - ponceleon is a stand up guy, and his comments tend to be some of the best ever, so be sure to check out his UNSIFTED vids and his PQUEUE from time to time, because more often than not you'll find real gems in there.

*cue round of applause*

A good friend of mine, Crake just acquired his gold star.

His hobbies include Iranian politics, Sci-fi, adoring Ayn Rand from afar, and being meta.

He loves cookies and has a knack for spotting inapproriate commercials.

I made him a picture through msn that I'll upload in just a bit, which is just delightful for the occasion.

Shake your canes and rattle your brains for Crake and his new golden idol.

Check out his queue, personal queue, and sifted videos.

Ah, a delightful pun in the headline, success!


And more importantly, congratulations to Sketch for his success in making it up to the hallowed ranks of the golden.


Your key to the Olympic Victory washroom stalls will be sent to you by this kid.


Unless he's distracted by a butterfly or something. Or gets a kick to the face.

Yes, it's true, brothers and sisters: At long last the don of VideoSift himself has gotten his silver diamond. Member numero uno. Can you believe it? That it took him so long, I mean? Seriously, how cool is that? Think of how great the house that dag built is. Think of all the great videos you've seen here. Think of all the great comments you've read here. Think of how many great people you've met here. Then think about the man who dreamed it up while he was between jobs. Totally awesome.

Thanks for making this place, dag. There are a lot of people who've left their mark on this place, that's for certain. But there's only one person who's left a place to mark called VideoSift. So good on you, mon ami.

Also, I've had a lot of fun photoshopping dag since I've been here, so here are a few more pics. Feel free to link to any photoshops you've made of him too. Let's make it a party.

... more inside ...
