I plan on leaving YouTube

Maybe because one famous voice actor is playing in there or something?

If that's the case, Mumbling, then there's only one person on the whole list that would really warrant it:

Kiefer Sutherland - Bron

If you don't know him, he plays the main character in the TV Series on FOX, 24.

If no one knows it, FOX has one of the biggest gripes about others using their stuff then anyone else. They even stop big name companies from using their stuff for non-profit reasons. Hulu has tie ins with FOX, which is why they are allowed to do what they do. (Create a website that shows full episodes of their biggest hits for free and advertise it on TV. (Which I must say is done in one of the worst ways to advertise, but still freaking works.))

The fact is that if even one person that they own appears in a movie or TV show, they claim rights to it, even if they don't own the movie or TV show. That's how greedy and big they are.

And does anyone care? No. They love the shows. (Me included in this.) And they're going to do nothing about it just to keep the shows going.

So if I wanted to get it up I would also have to go through FOX, and that is a much harder task then just going through Universal.

So this is the reason I'll never get it up on YouTube.

Case FINALLY solved!

So does this mean you are no longer uploading videos in general?

For now.

However, when the site is completed, I shall make a special video to advertise it and upload that onto YouTube.

It worked for my Blogger Video, so I have no doubt in mind of what it'll do for the main site I'm creating.

Well, see ya later!

Good luck. I hope it all works out and is easy and nothing unforeseen happens.

I hope it works out well, and that your site will not be bothered by Universal or the RIAA.

This is your resident Manny popping in to add a couple of cents to the discussion here. I might be pouring gasoline on the pokeplayer984 fire (don't anybody accuse of plagiarism, as that's a common expression

), as in providing more reasons to leave, but whatever.

So, I'm cruising around on the interwebs, minding my own business, when I get an email from YouTube. A member by the name of pokeplayer915 had subscribed to my channel. I recognized the poleplayer name from here, and I knew the 3-digit number started with a 9, but the rest of the numbers seemed... off. I went to the profile of my new subscriber to see what was up.

It was here that I saw all kinds of warning lights flash up, telling me that this was not the pokeplayer I knew.

The title in the account says, "MAHMOOD ULL NEVER WIN." However, it looks like the account somehow got hacked by some people (I've seen this happen to one other YouTube member). I knew Mahmood got banned here (though I never knew why), and I knew that Mahmood impersonated some people from here with similar YouTube names, but something seems way off with this profile. If I had to guess, I'd say that this profile used to belong to Mahmood, but someone hijacked it. If you look at Recent Activity, you'll see that the member has been busy making friends in the past couple of hours. The member also favorited one of my videos. Mahmood also tried to do a few things to connect with me, such as sending friend invites, subscribing, etc.

I made a random guess and found here what I assume to be pokeplayer984's real YouTube account.

So that's what I can contribute to this little discussion. Hope this information is helpful. Perhaps someone here can also fill in some of the holes in my findings.

Yes the second link you found is John's.

I don't know about that first one personally.

landbeforetimelover · **Reply #68 on:** June 08, 2009, 12:48:52 PM

Well the 915 account probably isn't that guy that got banned. He couldn't do anything with a computer. I doubt he'd know how to get the pokemon episodes that are in his/her account and upload them to youtube.

Let's just say he isn't much. If he could really go around hacking youtube accounts and such, he would have gotten back in here. Invisionfree's security is terrible. My server is a million times more secure and youtube is like a trillion times better when it comes to security than this board is. Heck, you don't even have a secure connection when signing up or logging in. The least Invisionfree could do is make it an https.

My speculation was that the 915 account originally belonged to Mahmood, but someone else hacked it (the hackers left their names, which was also the case with the last account I saw that got hacked).

It does seem like YouTube is also filled with people that steal videos, people that impersonate, people that hack, blah blah blah.

Well then, me creating that website of mine will be more of a benefit to me than anything else.

I just can't believe these people go and copy the one name that I came up with. The name of pokeplayer holds a history behind it that only the members here understand. If you ask me, anyone who steals from me deserves all of the bad things coming to them, even getting banned/hacked.

I'm sorry if any of you feel differently about what I've said, but the name is TOO important to me. It's my own precious little treasure. I hope you understand that.

DarkHououmon · **Reply #71 on:** June 08, 2009, 06:00:44 PM

I think hacking someone over a name is childish and a bit too extreme. But that's just me. No offense intended.

Jasper · **Reply #72 on:** June 08, 2009, 06:49:33 PM

I'd like to confess by saying I've hacked into someone's account on deviantart at school, but I knew the guy. He forgot to log off from another computer so I went to deviantart and went into his account and displayed a message to him in caps lock. It still there I think. Reason I did that was to prevent him from forgetting to log off. My school has some crazy people. Not to long ago someone got hacked into there school account and was expelled from school. As for youtube, I have no problems with them, but certain users on youtube are a different story. Several friends I know of have problems with these users and it has something to do with the videos my friends upload.

Jasper · **Reply #73 on:** June 08, 2009, 06:50:52 PM

The thing that really irritates me the most is the fact those "certain" users have not been banned yet.

pokeplayer984 · **Reply #74 on:** June 10, 2009, 09:15:12 AM

And there they go removing the first part of LBT 9. (Yeah, ONLY that.)

*sighs* That's one of the better later sequels. Well, let's just hope I can get it back up. -_-

See ya guys later!

Beware of the hulutube video its fake!If this was the drive.

Kor · **Reply #76 on:** June 12, 2009, 08:06:46 AM

I've seen some videos where they do not remove a the video or a part of a series of videos like movie parts, but just turn the sound off of 1 of them. I guess since it contains a song & the corporation that owns the song complained or something.

Paradise Bird · **Reply #77 on:** June 12, 2009, 08:52:32 AM

I can hack though using password decoders and other scripts

DarkHououmon · **Reply #78 on:** June 12, 2009, 09:56:43 AM

That makes me feel uncomfortable.

pokeplayer984 · **Reply #79 on:** June 15, 2009, 09:41:11 AM

You know, ever sense YouTube removed a certain video, I have been searching hard for it. You see, the big thing is that it's a great video with a wonderful song. When something that so many would actually like is removed, it's just saddening. We don't care about the reasons why it was removed, we just hate it, because we loved it.

Well, after a bit of searching, I have found it yet again.

There are some videos out there that are just so great, even the law shouldn't be a reason for it to be removed. IMO, this is one of them.
