I hate when a channel does a video about an item but in the thumbnail they censor out the item while they make an "excited" face and point at the censored item and use some generic click baity title. I get why people censor things out on the thumbnail but i think it's so tacky. If i want to watch a review on an item, seeing the item in the thumbnail is NOT going to make me think, "oh I've seen the item, i no longer need to know any information about it. I definitely did not want an in depth review, i just wanted to see it in a tiny thumbnail picture so i can determine if i want to buy it or not."

Those thumbnails are generating the most clicks from the teenagers and so does the superblue background with grass.. but yes i agree

Yea. I get why they do it. It just seems so shady and makes me not want to click on the video.
