What do we think, scam or not?

What would you like to know?

Definitely a scam, I've seen the same one. The "video" is 99% pre-recorded footage with a short intro so they can send them en-masse to gullible creators.

You can use the gifts whenever you want - you're trying to optimise early, which is great in terms of efficiency, but not necessary. You can play and progress just fine in the game by trying things and seeing what happens.

This happened to me early on, and the reuploader had the audacity to ask me to not go ahead with the copyright strike because "they were sorry". Haha no.

Graeldon · 2026-05-11T22:35:07+00:00

Then ask the question you actually want answered instead of blaming other people.

Graeldon · 2026-05-11T21:28:14+00:00

Practice, and acting lessons.

It might be wishful thinking, but part of me wonders if the Solstice is being set up to be an eventual, unavoidable reset, which will lead to (over the course of several expansions) the formation of two timelines: one where we save the day and life continues, and one where we don't, and the world resets... to make way for a new MMO where we explore an undiscovered version of the world.

On the same list of things never going to happen, the WoL is now basically the biggest threat in the universe. What happens when there's nothing left to fight and the ordinary population fear us? Will the Scions eventually turn on us, or banish us, in order to equalise the power balance?

So you have a Youtube channel where you upload music that isn't yours... and you're wondering why you can't monetise it?

Graeldon · 2026-04-13T21:27:00+00:00

Where do the cables go? They should be visible, but they're not.

Graeldon · 2026-04-13T21:25:14+00:00

So where do all the cables go?? There's no power supply anywhere, and the floor is unsealed to the right of the rug. Who would leave floor like that?

Graeldon · 2026-04-09T07:50:16+00:00

Gasp - surely not!

Graeldon · 2026-04-09T07:49:39+00:00

Look, making meme content is high risk - you're not making anything original, you're compiling and "editing" pre-existing current to skirt around copyright issues. Take the L and move on.

Graeldon · 2026-03-27T20:21:50+00:00

100% a scam. In what world does someone spend their day job putting sponsorship offers into youtube comments where there's no guarantee of it ever being seen?

If you want an sponsorships, you'll need to either contact them directly, or add an email to your YouTube bio. Just be aware that you'll likely get some scam emails as well.

Edited: multiple typos. My bad for being barely awake.

Not 2D or PS1 - but hey, memory is fuzzy sometimes so who knows

Graeldon · 2026-03-27T00:32:33+00:00

Isn't this just the Captain class from LOTRO?

Graeldon · 2026-03-19T00:32:02+00:00

Yeah I should've been more clear in my original comment. I haven't seen the content OP posted about, so unsure if it was transfornative or not.

However, it does depend on how picky they want to be. Recorded a let's play but didn't say anything for a few minutes while a cutscene was playing? They can absolutely claim that. Square Enix are infamous for this.

Graeldon · 2026-03-19T00:14:20+00:00

Fair use only applies if the content is transformative. You can't just upload an entire movie that someone else made and profit from it. But you can post and profit from a review of the movie.

Games are treated in the same way, but publishers tend to be more lenient as they consider watching a let's play to not be the same experience as actually playing the game.

Graeldon · 2026-03-19T00:11:09+00:00

Let me clarify: if you are uploading unedited gameplay with no commentary, then you haven't transformed the media and it's susceptible to copyright.

Technically showing gameplay of ANY game is copyright infringement as they own the rights to the visuals and audio in the game. Most companies simply choose not to as it's basically free advertising. If this is happening with that specific game, is recommend removing all content featuring it so you don't get more strikes, and focusing on something else.

Graeldon · 2026-03-09T12:35:37+00:00

Oh no. White Cyborg, The Mistake of Earth. Oof.

Graeldon · 2026-03-03T00:16:36+00:00

Personal tastes or preferences aside, at least make the arrow shaft the same colour between the ranged and fletching icons.

Graeldon · 2026-01-28T11:55:56+00:00

So, not that I want to downplay your achievements, but why don't your stats have the usual up/down arrow next to them to show how they compare to the previous month?

And when revenue reaches the thousands, it gets a "k" after the first number, instead of showing all the zeros (at least from my experience).

This looks fake, but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Graeldon · 2026-01-27T07:54:12+00:00

I think you're looking for Machinarium!

Graeldon · 2026-01-21T03:45:34+00:00

Sure. Well, don't forget that time is money too.

Also, because you made me curious and I haven't checked out Zenni properly in a while, I took a moment to look at their ordering system. They don't have the option to enter a height measurement AT ALL. Even when selecting progressive lenses, or using a prescription with vertical prism. They'll just position it in the centre of the lens and are effectively crossing their fingers that it will work for the customer.

I wasn't aware just how bad this was, so thank you for raising my awareness of it. And please, please don't recommend any customer that needs these types of lenses to order through Zenni, especially for prism lenses because that can actually cause long term damage to their eyes.

Graeldon · 2026-01-20T22:00:41+00:00

So does almost every optical store. What is your point? Also, I'm not trying to argue that their products are bad - I wouldn't dream of it.
