To be absolutely disgusted about comments on youtube re. DD

CuppaTeaAndAJammieDodger · 31/03/2015 17:14

I am not a fan of plastering your child over social media/internet in general and avoid doing so as a rule.

XDH took DD to a football match on Sunday, an international between Brazil and Peru (she's 1/2 Brazilian) at the Emirates Stadium, they were briefly interviewed on the way out after the match by what looks like an Arsenal fan run organisation called arsenalfantv.com. All well and good, it was a short and innocuous experience for DD. The organisation then posted this to their youtube channel (and embedded it on their site and facebook), along with many other interviews, articles etc.

XDH texted to let me know and I went to have a look. I took a look at the comments below and was shocked to see that someone had posted "She is hot!!", there were 2 likes to the comment, there was also a reply saying that they were a regular user but have set up a new account specifically so they could agree with the comment and that she was "one of a kind" - so that's 4 people saying (or agreeing) that my 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER is hot. There were a few replies to the comments berating the posters as being sick (and other insults). Just to clarify - there was only one female in the video that they could be referring to.

I've reported the comments to Youtube but they are yet to do anything about it, I've also emailed the organisation that posted it asking for them to take it down which they are yet to reply to - the though of anyone looking at my CHILD in a sexual way is making me upset/sick/livid.

Has anyone else got any ideas as to what I can do to get this removed? Would any of you be prepared to report the comments if I gave you the link?

Just reported too, that's awful, really makes me sick.

PurpleSwift · 31/03/2015 17:47

I can see the comments.
Vile peope

WorraLiberty · 31/03/2015 17:47

As soon as I reported, I couldn't see the comment anymore but I thought that was because the big green tick was covering it?

BoobooChild · 31/03/2015 17:47

Have the comments gone? I could see the ones you said and reported now I can see others but not those. Does that mean reporting has worked?

Thankyou everyone - I very much hope it is idiots just being...well, idiots rather than anything more depraved.

Afraid it doesn't - I was fooled by that last night when I reported them, but if you sign out of Youtube they are there again.

Basically I think youtube remove the offending comment(s) for you - it's like they think "oh well if we remove them from the annoying reporter then problem solved"

Lulu1083 · 31/03/2015 17:51

I agree with SaucyJack, it seems more like troublemakers rather than actual paedophiles but still fucked up behaviour either way. Sorry you've had to go through this op. Hopefully youtube will pay attention if enough of us report but I'd definitely be in touch with Arsenal, I'm sure they will sort it out as quickly as they can.

WorraLiberty · 31/03/2015 17:52

I'll try signing out and in again then because I wanted to report the other guy too, who agreed with him.

850Pro · 31/03/2015 17:56

I wouldn't let some stupid internet comments get to you, she looks like she had a great day out with her dad :-)

DorothyBastard · 31/03/2015 17:57

I've reported for you, OP

steff13 · 31/03/2015 17:57
  1. Your daughter is adorable.
  2. Those comments make me want to vomit.
MendipsMary · 31/03/2015 17:58

I've reported it too.

Hope you're ok OP Flowers

seriouslypeedoff · 31/03/2015 18:00

Oh my god!! That makes me feel sick. Even if they are just the sort of idiots that think its funny and don't actually mean it. Just wrong.

mumofthemonsters808 · 31/03/2015 18:01

Who are these people describing a little girl as "hot" ?. Horrendous, what is the world coming to?.THank Christ, these comments have been removed.

SergeantJarhead · 31/03/2015 18:02

I reported it as harassment and it said the comment is now deleted? I could be wrong but I am so sorry you had to see those awful comments Op

BoreOfWhabylon · 31/03/2015 18:02

Sick bastards

custardismyhamster · 31/03/2015 18:04

She looks like a lovely little girl and I hope she had a great day out with her daddy

elderflowergin · 31/03/2015 18:05

Have you reported it to CEOP as I think they can be better at this than the websites themselves ?

morethanpotatoprints · 31/03/2015 18:08

Unfortunately, this is what happens with youtube and as far as I know there's nothing you can do about it.
People have suggested that i post recordings of dds performances, but I won't for this reason and the threat of other nasty comments.
Has your dd seen the message? Can you disable them?
It is horrible that people can do such a thing.
