Youtube Changed the game ???

"
Well, this isn't a surprise. A certain person released a certain exploit to many forums that passed non randomized parameters to YT's servers to fake views. Then a bunch of people were using the same parameters. I am certain the view sellers have randomized their sh***t and kept their head low, then came this certain person :(

Youtube has not changed the game, just view suppliers trying to eliminate each other. This is all due to ONE method, being reported to youtube. Instead of just patching it, they showed us how ruthless they are capable of being.


Edit - will not let me quote the word sh**T as I am new.

I don't know why but so far i don't have problem with my customers.. Still selling views still rocking my service.. The bad thing is i don't have a website to make this shit go viral !
 
Flag the video and report it to YouTube. Claim your rights for the video you have created. If you can prove that it is yours, those videos of yours that are re-uploaded by others will be taken down by YouTube.

Next time, put a watermark on videos you make. You can watermark it with your website or company name.

I tried to fill out the form but they asked for a link to the original video and that video has been removed. Should I post a link to the video I re-uploaded? Plus it wants time stamps but it only gives room for one and there are several. I mean our actors are in there on and off throughout the the whole video. I don't even care so much about the reposts but a remix using parts of our video is a big problem.

This quote made me LOL hard: "How closely is Tapangoldy tied to Universal, Sony, and RCA?"

Major music labels buying Fiverr gigs to inflate video views of Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Santana...seems legit.
 
anyone knows http://fiverr.com/tapangoldy works again?
He is now a proven scammer who provided low-quality fake views instead of high-quality like the people here on BHW. Why would you want to order anything from him? He will get your videos banned.
 
I just read most of this thread, bad timing since I was planning to work in this area.

Google can do what they like as they have the 2 most powerful companies in the world today, web& video. It's sad the web has become ruled by one company that only cares for it's own profits, mainly from adwords and these traffic gigs are direct competition to adwords and that will be the main reason for this.
 
I guess, it's a new game then. Just eliminate your competitors by buying views for their channel and vids. (Just a thought from my side).

But, seriously, if its true and if YT continues like this, it won't be long enough when people start to buy views to take down their competitors' videos.
 
comion guys
in fact only 1 thing will change
u bought views for u vids urself before
now ur competitors will do it for u lol)
 
None of the suppliers are "Scammers" how could they predict YouTube would do this? I mean cmon.. Stop trying to blame everyone. lol
 
The last 6 months of IM has been a huge disappointment they are getting smarter.

youtube is not IM, nor is just social networks. Making money in other sectors of IM is still very possible. Expand your horizon.
 
damn ... i think BHW need to close down it's registration to new members ... all the things is going to mainstream media & google

Forbid new signups on a forum that is viewable without logging in and is indexed by google to prevent information leakage? :yikes:
 
Hi all i'm no big provider but at the moments i have no issue with the likes and subs.
but i think youtube is catching up on views especialy mobile ones.

Nobody and I mean nobody but YouTube would have known of what and when is coming. You can't blame any provider for not knowing and there is no way the could've predicted what YouTube will change. It always were, is and will be cat and mouse game.
 
I've remained quite enough through this thread. I predicted and advocated audience retention as a true patriot and got blasted, mocked, ridiculed and shunned by various providers and people until they finally opened their eyes. I then spoke about the importance of quality content, which people seem to misunderstand still to this day. Many view providers just barely provide audience retention for public purposes after the re-education people have given on how to effectively rank a video. The fix is really easy, and maybe perhaps I would shed light on HOW a few simple fixes would make it nearly impossible to tell the difference between provider views and real traffic views.

The recent take down had nothing to do with retention :) it was an Adwords Exploit which is why anyone who promoted their videos through Adwords legitimate or not went down. (Hence the reason why a lot of celebrities' videos and music labels got their videos taken).

YouTube deleted any video with that referral because it was an exploit and they were losing money, simple as that.

The retention method was a matter of time since it was leaked and of course there are tweaks to it.

So you are trying to tell me that people who sold fake views (stemming from an exploit!!) as safe and real views aren't scammers and couldn't have known what would happen inevitably? Please, how stupid do you think they are? They knowingly sold crap that they pretended was just as good as what reputable providers sold.
 
I get your point, but looking from that perspective every view provider on BHW is a scammer, they are using exploits, simulating views through http requests and so on, don't expect that someone actually will sit there and see your video, no matter what they tell you. It's predictable that every method will be patched with time and those who used it may have some losses. A buyer should assume some risks when decides to inflate his view count, if you want real views without any risks than there is a legitimate way too, provide quality content, hire a marketing company, build your fan base on social networks etc. I don't see why on earth would someone become a scammer just because his method was busted.
