Yay for stealing my content!

Post by Mozgus »

God damn am I sick of this. I post this clip a while back:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfLK30vePzg

Some punk on GameTrailers rips it, posts it on his account, gives no credit. It gets featured on the front page and gets 30k hits. It also has none of the annotations my youtube version had, which served as commentary.

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/user ... t=featured

I really hate the internet. I guess I have to start watermarking all my shit now like a douche.

Edit: He's since inserted a link to my youtube after I brought this up with him.

I knew you'd say that. But anyways, I got him to edit the video description. Not such a big deal now.

Haha! Oh my god, I shared the kid's profile, and someone chatted with him about his newfound fame. The kid is trying to claim that he's actually a super pirate who can somehow play cracked copies of L4D on secure servers. That makes him COOLER than us dumb dumbs who actually bought the game.

well.... i am a dumb dumb...

sucks that content gets stolen. Really the only way to make it not stolen is to upload it everywhere possible so you have control of it.

Or you know- don't upload it at all.


i haven't ever played with a party of strangers. Seems like fun.
