Please don't link to your own channel like that, it's spamming.
Also, don't forget to say something about what you're posting to start a discussion.

What does everybody think about the Trigglypuff meme?
Does she deserve being turned into a meme? Is this internet Justice?

The definition of Spam is "irrelevant or inappropriate messages sent on the Internet to a large number of recipients."

The topic i posted under is titled " Off topic-fun" which means its not irrelevent, there is nothing inappropriate about the video either, and this post isnt a message thats being sent to a large number of recipients...

By linking to your own channel, you're engaging in self promotion, which is usually inappropriate. There are a large number of readers on the forum, and by posting you are sending it to the forum community to read.

This isn't a debate about the definition of forum spam. Please don't link to your own content like this.
If there was a discussion on trigglypuff going on, then it might be more appropriate to link this video if you created it, but not without some participation in the discussion itself.

Spamming for self promotion is a fine line, and that line will move depending on how much you put back in. It's like leeching without seeding.

Engaging in self promotion is NOT considered Inappropriate and i have only promoted one other video on here before. If small channels dont self promote then how will they grow bigger? I am pretty sure even The Vegan Atheist at one point had to self promote to get his Chanel kick started. The contend i post is NOT be any definition considered "Spam", and the real reason why you are doing this is because you dont want people to promote there channels. Last time i checked there is no rule on this site that prohibits self promotion, so unless you all of a sudden want to create a rule then i am not breaking any. I have not broken any rules of this site and other then you i have gotten NO other complaints.

Actually, you have received several complaints from other users for posting links without other content.

Yeah Turbanator, how would you like it if I were to write "Best Tip To Quick Weight Loss" then post this video?

Hell, it already happens on the internet, so don't be a part of that. I'm pretty sure you do have some good things to say.
