Is there a way to empirically measure what the worst forum on the internet might be?

Let's put it this way...If 4chan was a benchmark, how would QZ compare?

Depends on what forum on 4chan you're using as benchmark ;)

I know this is not exactly constructive, but I'm going to fart out my tuppenceworth anyways: who gives a flying fuck if his channel is deleted again? I have nothing personal against David (I don't know him, and this is in no way an attack on him), but I really don't see what the fuss is about - the notion that he was the "online rarity boxset" is laughable. All of the stuff on his channel is either officially available or easily found through other means. He's not the be all and end all, and, at the end of the day, it's QPs right to issue him with notice of complaint. End of, IMO.

He can just start a NASCAR channel instead. Personally I want to see a 15-minute crying vlog about how much we all miss Dale Earnhardt.

I wouldn't call him an "online rarity boxset" either, but he did serve as a remider to the general public that there IS material out there that could easily be released if somebody in QP was interested.
Of course it's available through "other means" as well (or David wouldn't have ended up with the material in the first place), but not as easily as a youtube channel.
Even though QP is the moral winner when Fuller's channel is shut down, it's the bootleggers and traders who gain the most in reality. They are the "other means" that are most easily found.

Nobody ever said other 'channels', they said other means of getting things. Circulation of bootlegs and stuff.

There are plenty of "reminders" like him. Thousands of them. Most of them just don't slap their name on their uploads like a badge of honour and try to openly sell material that someone else owns copyright to.

I'll take that as a challenge. ;)
If you can post here THREE links where anybody can listen to a minimum of 20 complete Queen demos with no cost or registration, I will take your word for it.
And you don't have to do it just to please me.
This simple task will show everybody that David Fuller is a person who will not be missed, and you will make a lot of casual Queen listeners happy. Of course the better links you can post, the more insignificant Dave will seem...

Collectors have shared thousands upon thousands of things over the years. Plenty of live material, studio outtakes, alt versions and BBC sessions, all for free. No new things need to be shared to prove this point, my friend. It's been happening for ages - long before you were around these quarters.
But without a doubt new ones will come when they'll come..
If you want them to come at a different time, then you're welcome to search and put them out as you see fit :-)

This was your chance to prove once and for all that David Fuller had absolutely no function at all, and you chose not to take it.
Unless another fanthology member is willing to take up the challenge, we can safely say that David indeed had a unique role in serving the general public.

It's too bad it's not the Middle Ages; his unique function would've been to have his head and hands in stocks so that people could throw rotten fruit at him.
