And if the video was important you could have made a thread about it. If it was one of your videos, you have your own thread for them. It could also be that people didn't like the video, therefor they saw no reason to respond. I post plenty of video in the chat, they never get noticed. Not my problem. The question still remains, if all you see is a number, why do you care? I say a option to hide it would work, just like we hid the rep.
