As you may have noticed I have temporarily disabled the links to my music videos.  Let me explain to you why.

Because people are rude and disrespectful and think just because something is up for download that they can use it in their own videos on youtube.  Or just post the whole damn thing with no remorse.  I’m sorry but seriously?  You either have to be extremely ignorant or uncaring to do something like that.  I am also extremely sick of the condescending responses I receive from fellow youtubers when I tell them to take my video down.  I get the same excuses everytime.

1. Oh I didn’t know.  My rebuttal, if you read the FAQ that I tell EVERYONE to read above the download section then you would know, feigning innocence gets you no where in life, and it’s pathetic for you to think that if you pretend to think its not wrong and avoid my FAQ that its okay.

2. I put new music over it. My rebuttal, so?  As vidders the only thing we can claim (and if you were a REAL vidder you would know this) is the editing.  So when you put different music over something that took literally HOURS to edit, you’re still stealing 100% of my video.

3.  I only used parts of your video, not the whole thing! My rebuttal, once again, do you people have any decency or common sense?  Am I dealing with 8 year old stealers?  I seriously feel like I am.  What part of editing do you not understand?  Regardless of if you steal 20 seconds or 2 min of my editing for your videos, its still effort that I put into MY original video.

4. I was only trying to support your videos.  My rebuttal, usually when I get this remark, people have either tried to remove my tag at the bottom or/and they haven’t even mentioned me in the side bar.  I am not stupid, so give me the common decency of an apology, and delete it.

5. I have seen other people use your footage.  I didn’t know it was wrong/ tell them to get rid of there video too.  My rebuttal, ever heard the phrase 2 wrongs don’t make a right?  First of all if all of you stealers had read the FAQ like I asked, or even read the disclaimer at the top of some of my blog posts that say DO NOT USE THIS IN YOUR MUSIC VIDEOS, I wouldn’t have a problem with people posting them on youtube now would I?  Secondly, tell them to get rid of them?  First of all, SURE yeah I know of every single fucking person who has stolen my videos, I’m sorry Mr. Stealer for wronging YOU and not finding them all before I found you to tell them to get rid of my video as well.  Use common sense, or your lack of a brain to realize that I am one person.  When I see someone wronging me or another vidder for that matter that’s when I let them know.  I don’t know of all of the stealers in the world, I am just going to take them down one pitiful one at a time.

What people who aren’t true vidders but stealers don’t realize is HOW MUCH effort goes into creating a video.  Stealers don’t realize this because they are too lazy and have never even TRIED to make something on their own.  So stealers, when you steal something from any vidder, and this is a message to not only the people stealing my stuff, but all respected vidders on youtube, when you STEAL things from us, you not only steal our editing.  You steal our possible subscribers, our possible feedback in the form of comments and ratings, you steal OUR views.

This is my first real blog on this site. Haha. I am compiling a wall of shame so all vidders will know what stealers to look out for, because this is getting ridiculous.  If you want to be treated like a vidder act like you are older than an 8 year old and most importantly….

EDIT YOUR OWN FUCKING VIDEOS.

Thanks a lot, and to all my lovely friends, viewers, and subscribers…sorry you had to put up with this rant.  I appreciate every single one of you, but I figured I had to put it all out blatantly for the people who are idiotic stealers :)

    I’d get annoyed too,It takes a ton of work to make a video, and i’ve learned that after a year of messing with movie maker and SV that if you spend hours editing something, it is truly worth it to see the feedback and comments, ratings, views and stuff. It gives you the deep down good feeling. I wonder what stealer’s think when they get feedback on stolen videos/clips. Anyways your website layout looks awesome!!!
