As long as they're just claims, not any strikes, you are in no danger whatsoever. I've got 27 content Id claims currently, and never once had a strike. My account is still in good standing. I only ever contest when they block a video, not when they monitize them. For reasons I can't understand, whenever I've contested a blocked video, the appeal is rejected, but the block is lifted and they monitize instead. I think I mentioned this before. Also, and again for no reasons I can see, sometimes the content ID claims go away on their own.

Found a new movie review channel called History Buffs. The guy takes a look at historical films and provides both historical context and an analysis of each film and how accurate they are. Quite interesting stuff. Here's his review of one of the greatest battle movies ever made, Waterloo.

achillesforever6 posted:I was watching his Kingdom of Heaven review and man he should have watched the Director's Cut it is like 10000000000x better than the theatrical cut Yeah, the KIngdom of Heaven DC is absolutely my favorite Ridley Scott joint and probably in my top 10 favorite movies ever. At almost four hours it's a hell of a commitment though. The Blu-ray also adds a pre-movie overture, intermission, and entr'acte, which is kinda fun. ninjahedgehog fucked around with this message at 06:51 on Feb 20, 2016 |

Josef K. Sourdust posted:I tried watching a few of Spoony's live wire videos on YouTube. It's basically: His live streams are real shitshows since he doesn't care about interacting with the audience at all, just banning people if they manage to somehow upset him (which is very easy to do). The one I remember is him qutting FF 14 after I believe literally 10 minutes because he got angry a tutorial quest had you delivering pies or somesuch.

By this time in DC Universe I was blasting my way out of a Brainiac invasion ship. By this time in Star Trek Online I was fighting off a loving Borg cube. By this time in Final Fantasy 14 I was handing off a loving pie. gently caress the pie and gently caress this game. Maybe he would of liked it better if you fought Bahamut in the first 20 minutes or Elf Catholic Pope in the expansion

Baywatch(ing) is amazing, simply to see how many things they are going to do this time that have gently caress all to do with life guarding. I think I say this every time the topic comes up, but most long running shows have the problem that they eventually use up all possible stories they can tell with their premise. Baywatch is just somewhat unique as that happened three episodes in.

The next episode I get to script has Mitch get paralyzed, healed through product placement, and then is immediately followed by an episode where he kickboxes! Mraagvpeine posted:Did they ever have aliens on Baywatch? Yep, in the ep The Vosgian beast linked, also there's at least a couple eps of Baywatch Nights involving aliens as well (one where Mitch is struck by lightning and psychically linked to an alien kid). There's a two-parter of Baywatch proper where Summer is possessed by a ghost who chickened out of a suicide pact.

Cyrus made a website called Oneofus.net which did general nerd stuff (and sports???) Korey created DoubleToasted which basically does 6 shows a week. Martin is mainly a co-host for most of the shows. Tony retired from the internet. And the one that wrote Syndicate franchise is Robert Cargill.

I stuck with Korey. Their site loving owns and is consistently great. I love all the new crew. I pop into Oneofus a few times, and while I like it, it tends to get a bit too nerdy for me. But digital noise is quite good. Johnny Neil.

When he's playing a game he enjoys he can riff well. But weirdly even that is not always true. He played Pony Island all the way through, enjoyed it, laughed, was surprised, engaged with the puzzles, was a bit disappointed by the ending. Afterwards: Chat: What did you think of it?  Spoony: It sucked. I hated it. I'm deleting it.  Like, he's got to play up being cynical hard rear end even if the game doesn't deserve it. In the case of Pony Island that just seems fundamentally dishonest because there is +2 hours recording of him enjoying it before a mildly disappointing conclusion. Why not be honest and say "Well, that was a pretty engaging game but the ending wasn't so hot".

DStecks posted:Also, porn sites do get swept for copyrighted content... it's just that the content in question is porn. Wouldn't do Brazzers much good to advertise on a website where you can watch all their content for free. Actually, the real secret is that Brazzers, almost all the streaming porn sites, and lots if not most porn "studios" are all owned by the same company. There was some video or article about porn stars that I saw/read a while ago that went into how a huge chunk of the porn industry is owned by a single conglomerate that makes money if you watch porntube, subscribe to a website, or buy physical/digital copies. The main focus of the video/article was about how it was impacting actors pay and working conditions, and how there was very little they could do unless they got signed with one of the few independent companies. For instance the actors don't get any residuals off streaming but get a piece off actual purchases which means the company actually gets a higher profit margin off the streaming, or something like that.

A Let's Play friend joked about putting a Let's Play we did (FF13) on a porn site a few years back and got about two videos in before the account got banned entirely. It's probably less effective than putting porn on YouTube, ironically.

The issue with Spoony is that I've never felt that his cynical rear end in a top hat gimmick is a gimmick. Yes, he could have transitioned to LPs and twitch, but he's always grumpy and treats his fan base like trash. He's also just far too slow to work as a streamer. Sorry, one stream a week or so is not going to do it. he also needs to interact with his chat more often than he does in the streams I have seen.

Ross is back, flying solo, for a single-player online only game from EA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2pdvh4uiaM But wait! It gets better. Because yes, he did have a lot to say about EA killing games in the Battleforge review. And not only does he have more to say-- he's starting a grassroots movement. Spoilered if you want to watch the reveal in the video... He's organizing a "Dear EA: Stop killing games" to try to influence EA execs to stop making online-only games (single-player or otherwise) that are shut down and, well, killed. Made unplayable. Abandoned without any hope of release. Especially single-player games that don't need any online aspect. He's trying to get business contact information for EA executives, and start a physical letter writing campaign. Business, not personal, contact information. He wants to flood them, day after day, with "a persistent annoying buzz in their ear" (paraphrase) by way of piles of physical mail on their desk each day. He makes a good point-- social media, email, etc, is easy to ignore. It's why online petitions and online letter writing campaigns don't work. But a Vice President coming in day after day to dozens or hundreds of envelops to sift through-- at least that gets someone's attention. He is especially interested since EA just released some marketing bullshit where they're all "interested" in "regaining the trust of gamers". Ross' response: well, you can stop killing games.
