Lost Video Island

I commented on the 2 vids you were talking about. He'll probably come after me too, if he gets annoyed enough, but oh well. I don't care.

He needs to stop stealing vids. I don't even get how this could be gratifying in any way. If you get comments/faves/ratings from a video you stole, you can't take any of the credit. Would you really feel good about it, like you accomplished something?

It's just dumb to me. Are they that starved for attention? Weird...

Arrrrrgh! I hate it when vid thefters try to brazen it out like if they just keep insisting they made it, then everybody will believe it!

And I don't know which annoys me even more: when they go to the trouble of cutting out your credits and replacing it with their own or when they don't even bother to do THAT much work!

Yeah, unfortunately pretty much all we can do is keep commenting and try to annoy them enough that they'll take them down.

So sorry about that, John! It's a very, very annoying and frustrating thing!

Yes, yes

Well, I just have to laugh at the fact that some of them keep the "Made by xoxoxo" part there and they upload it anyway

Well, like I said. Since it's only two guys and two stolen vids (YET) I am going to keep commenting and commenting and commenting. They do not know what they just pi**ed off. Both of them laugh at me

Maybe it's pointless, but I wont just give up.

Btw. what I mind the most is that sometimes it seems, that those stolen vids have more comments, ratings and views than the original vid

And basically the only evidence u have is the Upload Date. But nobody cares

I was never aware of all the clip theft and what not until now, so I decided for my next video I'm going to place a sort of watermark (my initials) in the bottom right corner, because clip thievers can't remove that... or at least I hope not.

BTW I rated that stolen Season 5 promo down and did a comment.. hope it helps.

Jamielost - Yep, me too. I already have a watermark, so I'll just put it in my next vid. But I dont know if it will help. Some ppl are just so stupid that they will steal the vid anyway. And thanks for commenting on that stolen vid, even though he has already deleted it (what a nub).

littleton_pace - Well, I really dont know what they think. I just hope that no more ppl will steal it, because I am already busy spamming these two thieves I found

Ugh, I noticed that he deleted our comments. Maybe if we keep commenting, he'll eventually get annoyed and get rid of the vid? Oh well, we can only hope. *sigh* I'll try and comment again tomorrow if I remember, but it's nearly 2:30am and I'm really tired. *yawn* Sorry again about that stupid guy harassing you, John.

Vid/Clip theft sucks!

Well, I thank u all for helping

At least I'm not alone in this. Now, I'm having a PM conversation with that Hellomotow2007. He said that he's not a stealer, because he kept the "Made by GriiFin" part (Note: We're both insulting each other, so its not an easy converstation

). Which is true, but I dont get why would ppl upload it anyway

and he didnt even ask me if he can upload it. Well, I'll wait till he replies.

But the other guy (WWEinvadesTNA) is a real bastard :p He's the real stealer, so I am just going to spam his as much as i can. I think that deleting those messages wont be fun for him for long

Just now seeing this! Stealing a whole vid, omg that sucks! I just left a comment, we'll see how fast it gets deleted.

As for that one with clips stolen from me...

It happens sooo often, even with my watermark.

I've just noticed that the guy entered this in that stolen vid description Users http://youtube.com/user/xGriiFin and http://youtube.com/user/Hellomotow2007 have uploaded my LOST season 5 promo video and they present it as their own.

Seriously this made my day

How stupid can this guy get? He told me that I underestimated him when I think that he will take down those vids. Well, he underestimated me, when he thinks I am going to stop commenting on those stolen videos

I left him a comment

although no doubt he'll just delete it

What a loser!
