Well after seeing your reply to my review I initally edited my review and added this but I figured it would be better to just show it to you here.
Well it seems that maybe you took a little too much umbrage in my opinion. I wasn't trying to be the slightest bit insulting at all and I apologize if that's what I did. I realize it's my opinion and I'm entitled to it (just like you are entitled to yours). If you thought the video was so old that it was bad for reviewing, then maybe you should've suggested that we review one of your other videos instead. I just picked the first one on the list. Maybe I'll download one of the later ones and see if there's an improvement between the two. I just hope that when you did my review, you were unbiased and didn't state that you didn't like it because I didn't praise you completely in 10 words or less. Phade decided to call this an OPINION and not a REVIEW and now I think there was a very good reason for that. Reviews are unbiased, informative and usually helpful as they point out the good and the bad (and if you're like me, I even give out suggestions). Opinions, on the other hand, are silly combinations of personal taste and current emotion. I'm sure that if you watched my video first and did an opinion, it would've been much more informative and unbiased than what you initially did but since you saw that I was being a critic, you didn't like that.
Well, I'm sorry that you can't take a review that isn't completely good. I did point out various good things in the video but I likewise pointed out the bad. If you're expecting to be perfect everytime, you're in for a harsh wake up call when you leave the confines of an Internet Community and venture into the real world.
I apologize for the fact that you cannot accept constructive criticism but you asked for an opinion and I gave one (just like the person who gave a similar opinion right after me). Just like he is watching one of your other videos, I just might do the same out of curiosity.
My guess is that you're an established board member who probably has won a few awards and has some recognition as making some pretty good videos but you lack all professionalism in your behavior that makes the great creators great. I just hope that you aren't older than I am.
