Copycat Hunting - any of these your videos?

Postby AbsoluteDestiny » Sat May 07, 2005 6:39 am

This user has been caught uploading someone elses video and pretending it is their own (the george in the jungle one). Please have a look through the list of videos and download any that you think you might have seen elsewhere and let me know.

"The way I'm doing it I haven't seen anyone else do EVER. I'm spending so much time on this one and like I said, my formula is working out rather well. All of the series I'm using are just flowing into eatchother, and rather than representing a character from a series, their basically representing good or evil. I know this one will stand out from the rest. I'm confident it will. " - Sephirothskr

Unless I'm mistaken and it's the same person submitting under two accounts (which I doubt, and is forbidden anyway):

http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... hp?v=71723 is in fact http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... hp?v=63103 from Buried A Lie Studios (submitted on 21-02-2005).

I'll tell you what, I'll steal yours if you steal mine. That way we can both get an ego boost just before we get banned.

Just an idea - Is there any way to go through the checksum values on Local and check for identical copies? I'm not sure how practical it'd be but it seems like if people are just uploading other people's videos and claiming them as their own, the checksums would be the same...

Problem is, the offenders frequently trim off bumpers and such.

I don't get it. What is the purpose of stealing someone else's work and claiming it's yours? I never understood that. What does the person gain?

Yeah I don't know what the purpose is either and I don't understand it as well. All I know its wrong very WRONG. Cause all they are doing is getting their self banned from the site.
