GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Youtube Flaming...
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 11:32 AM
Isn't it fantastic that we don't have any flaming at all, here at GMC? 
Here is a video I did a while back for UG - where I answer some flamers 
(as well as general questions). If you're in a hurry - the hot stuff comes at 6:30 when I answer Damien666!

Kris really is an angel 
Posted by: Artemus Mar 4 2009, 11:45 AM
Delightful
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 11:46 AM
hehe do you think I should have been harder on him?
Posted by: Rated Htr Mar 4 2009, 11:50 AM
No, you had the correct attitude of a serious man
But I tell you that, when you put on the sun glasses I was expecting GuitarTube to appear
Posted by: gibsonmatte Mar 4 2009, 11:55 AM
Haha! This was excellent. Awesome that you actually took the time to answer all the question 100% NON-related to the actual guitar lessons And I also hope that Damien666 watched this!

Haha!
Damien 666, what a numpty!
I was so glad you just rode that Kris, it takes more courage not to get involved with these internet idiots who hide in their dperessing little bedrooms sneering at their screens at other peolpes talents, its just a manifestation of jealousy of course but you handled it with dignity and humour, class!
And i quite like the sunglasses, you should start a line in GMC shades, we can all derive the power of Kris when we play whilst wearing them and post a thousand you tube vids of us all wearing them! 
You could even send that ignorant little muppet damien a pair!
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 12:03 PM
Hehe yes I always find those questions fun. Also - I must say that I very rarely get the questions I predict when recording a lesson.
I think he did back then, when the original lesson was published!
I think you're onto something!

"a pretty cool lick.. ... .. if i may say so".. man i nearly choked on my food because i couldn't stop laughing.. i love slow mo with sound.. awesome..
nice way to handle damian.. ^^
Posted by: Rated Htr Mar 4 2009, 12:12 PM
I started thinking now...Kristofer Dahl introduces the book "How to be cool using sunglasses in 6 easy ways"

Funny video Kris, offcourse im subscribed to your channel so already seen the video, i think u did a nice job on that Damien, theres an old expression that goes like this "Never argue with an idiot, he will just drag you down to his level and beat you with experience "
Posted by: Muris Varajic Mar 4 2009, 12:18 PM
That was awesome Kris, "... I know you are a nice guy ". 
Posted by: Pedja Simovic Mar 4 2009, 12:26 PM
Great responses Kristofer. I think that guy went crazy when you put sunglasses back on
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 12:38 PM
Hehe thanks guys!
That's a very good expression - I'll remember it!
Posted by: Sensible Jones Mar 4 2009, 02:00 PM
Deep down I think Damien666 is just a bit jealous of those Shades!!!
Posted by: Andrew6 Mar 4 2009, 02:13 PM
hahaha that was great, number one rule of the internet: Don't feed the trolls.
These guys are just out there bashing anyone they can to get a rise out of people. You handled it great

Thanks - the so called "Internet rage" (at least that's the expression used in Swedish media) is an interesting phenomenon. Makes you wonder how these people are in real life...

This is great Kris, you are so entertaining and approachable in your videos.
I love your work man.
Posted by: Fran Mar 4 2009, 03:02 PM
disarming answers there Kris, way to go
Posted by: kaznie_NL Mar 4 2009, 04:46 PM
Cool vid! I already watched it partly on UG.
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 04:55 PM
Thanks a lot guys for the encouraging words!
@ David - thanks a lot - you have some really cool humouristic videos yourself!
Posted by: Joruus Mar 4 2009, 05:46 PM
I loved the part where you read Damien666's part while playing number of the beast in the background
Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Mar 4 2009, 07:04 PM
Can't beat a b5 for evil undertones
Well handled Kris, that attitude is why GMC is such fun to hang out!
Posted by: Jakub Luptovec Mar 4 2009, 07:21 PM
Great and funny kris:D Way to handle flamers:)
Btw. how is possible, I missed this? http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/kris-ug-lessons/
Or is it secret???
Posted by: mattacuk Mar 4 2009, 07:21 PM
I think that was the best possible response to Damian666. Its also a general attitude to live bye, on and off the internet. Just the other day some guy was flaming my taste in musicon youtube, and I simply replied that I could accept whatever music he was into, but why could he not respect mine?
Posted by: skennington Mar 4 2009, 08:04 PM
Well handled Kris, As Andrew said, this is a testament as to why GMC is what it is. But, I thought you did dyed your hair.. 
Posted by: berko Mar 4 2009, 08:08 PM
That was a great response-vid to watch! UG can sometimes be a terrible place to bring up any problems or ideas in the forums. Every topic simply gets drenched in the pit 
And great advices in the video too
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 4 2009, 08:10 PM
I'm sorry to dissapoint you...!

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Mar 4 2009, 10:12 PM
Haha, awesome video Kris, really interesting, lots of humor, but very serious and good idea!
Posted by: Trond Vold Mar 4 2009, 10:25 PM
That was a really cool vid Thought i had seen most of your UG videos, but i hadn't seen this one before.
Posted by: djohnneay Mar 4 2009, 10:49 PM
Cool vid, liked watching it
Posted by: Aleksander Sukovic Mar 5 2009, 01:42 AM
This is an excellent demonstration of how to deal with flamers and trolls, and in general with people who get kicks out of upsetting and offending others.
Way to go Kris!
Thanks for posting this cool vid.
Posted by: GuitarMonkey Mar 5 2009, 02:15 AM
Kris? Don't sweat it. We like you, and your cool sunglasses! So there!
Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Mar 5 2009, 02:54 AM
Cool video Kris , I haven't seen it before...It was really well handled , I really can't understand youtube flamers and its so refreshing that we don't have 0% of that behavior here.
Posted by: Oxac Mar 5 2009, 04:47 PM
What can I say Kris? You took the discussion to your level and beat him with experience
Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 5 2009, 04:58 PM
hehe I guess I did!
Posted by: Jose Mena Mar 5 2009, 06:25 PM
I really don't understand why people go on places like you tube and start putting comments like these. I took my time a few times to respond, but as someone stated that is exactly what these people want.
You are a good guy Kris, I wouldn't have said anything, or I would have said something nasty.
Posted by: Jesse Mar 5 2009, 06:46 PM
haha brilliant .
Posted by: enforcer Mar 5 2009, 07:33 PM
You dont seem to like my song very much, you dont seem to like me or my sunglasses, but I still believe that deep inside, you are a nice guy."
Man this is a classic
You should make this your signature
Posted by: audiopaal Mar 8 2009, 11:57 AM
Way too nice Kris
Hehe, I think what you said was great, I hope he watched it

"Arguing on the internets is like running in the Special Olympics.
Even if you win, you're still retarded."
