Ya ever get a chance to read some of my youtube comments? Most of them are favorable, but every once in a while I get a really bad comment. Some are even quite offensive. Sometimes I get accused of not really doing the work, that someone else has done the work and I just come in and pretend to do the job. And of course there are the shallow immature remarks about my shape and to my East Los Angeles dialect. I knew that I would get some bad comments, and they don't bother me. I even had one person make a bad comments right down the line as he watched my videos. Some were so disrespectful, I had to block him. But I carry on. So if you ever read some of these bad reviews, ya needs not ta worry, this lady (As I point to myself) is as tough as a herd of buffalo stampeding over the hills.

I haven't noticed or read these comments on your posts, but I wish these people would keep their opinions to themselves. Freedom of speech is one thing. Commenting for the purpose of some perverse self gratification at others expense is quite another. This is where we are at unfortunately. I find your videos both entertaining and educational. Further, respect you for rising above these petty, pathetic people and staying true to yourself. Keep'm coming Alicia. [Smile]

I've watched all of your youtube videos and find them informative and entertaining. No doubt in my mind that you are "The Deal - The Real Deal".
Pay no attention to those "know not of what the speak".

Time was any idiot with a computer and an internet connection could stir up a stink with an offhand nasty comment and get the lame sort of attention those deviants seem to thrive on,...nowadays you can add any idiot with a smart phone and or a computer connected to that statement and odds are you can multiply the deviant responses exponentially,...go figure,....

Several years ago the rumor was spread in town...that I died. I have had quite a time convincing people otherwise. You just carry on, Ali! Jer/Artworx

I found your videos to be helpful Alicia, I was just watching one a few weeks ago to see what kind of brush you were using! [Wink]

I appreciate and enjoy those videos too. If I was to post a video I think I would turn off the comments rather than allow an easy forum for deviants to get their sick thrills. Those who want to engage you in a healthy way will make the effort to contact you directly if they have questions or comments.

Please let us know how you faked the videos of you pinstriping and lettering. That was the most realistic hoax I've ever seen...

Alicia,
I have enjoyed the ones that I have watched.

There really isn't any reason to criticize anyone's work in a comments section like that.
Even if I didn't like you or your work what could I or anyone else gain by it?
This sort of critical behavior says more about the state of their soul than the target of their opinions.

Sign-painting applause from Florida, Keep at it!

I don't like the way you reverse the image to make it appear that you are doing that fantastic work with your left hand. [Big Grin] [Applause]

Most of the bad comments make me laugh. As if I have nothing better to do than to put out fake videos. If some of those boys knew my age, 56, I wonder if they would still make comments on my boobs or my butt. And even though I mention about being up in the Great Northwest, I get accused of being in Tijuana becuase of the chickens running around and crowing.

They are all just jealous Alicia!
 
Posted by Si Allen (Member # 420) on :
 
Lol! Alicia ... obviously those people never have been in East LA!

Alicia, You are with out a doubt a remarkably talented women in all aspects of the trade and impress even those who are just as talanted as well!

Highly respected and looked up to not only as an artist but talented intertainer as well.

Keep up those videos, We love them as well as your butt & boobs and all that goes with them, chickens included.
The East Coast Geezer. You can call me lenny, all my friends do.

Hold your head high Alicia, and ignore the ignorant, never mentioning them is the best way to make them go away.
Life is too perfect to waste it on them.

To the world you may be only one person....but to one person (or in this case all your Letterville friends and fellow artists) you mean the world.

Those people who offer rude and mean comments obviously do it for their own satisfaction....or should I say lack of anything better in their lives....sad.

Always know that you and your videos are appreciated here.

In case you didn't know of this option, on Youtube you can require comments to first be approved (by yourself) before they get posted. This way you can ignore the ones that are inappropriate or offensive before they get posted in your comments section.

You would go to your Info and Settings, Advanced Settings, then at the Comments area where the "Allow Comments" box is checked, the box next to that shows "ALL" or (drop down menu) "APPROVED"
You would select "APPROVED" if you want to decide what comments get posted or not. Then you have to click the box at the lower right to "SAVE CHANGES".

Next time someone wants to post a comment on that video, you will receive an email from Youtube and you can then ignore or approve the comment. This setting would need to be made on each video you post.
