Dan & Phil Part 3: Abs and Angst

Wow and they created a new account for this, of course.

[offtopic]Do we have an offtopic thread like we did over on gigi?[/offtopic]

akui · Fri Apr 08, 2016 2:38 pm

sigh, this is why we can't have nice things

i guess we have to ask them to not link the forum? i mean, i got no problem with the video being out in the wild, it's their problem if they got copyrighted. it will be out in the easy archive anyway if people would just wait for a bit.

about the clean up, i agree but i think it should be only about the real dd, considering it's the one containing you know what. let the other one stay, how about that?

Also, people, don't report that video just because you're upset please. Let's deal with this in the calmest way possible. We don't need no drama.

I don't think the bbc will take it down, as there are loads of bbc programmes on yt and are never removed, and especially as it is so old.

Maybe a disgruntled GG member/admin? Who else might have an interest in drawing negative attention to IDB ?

So far it looks like I'm in the minority with this opinion, but I thought I might as well share it anyway.

The cherrypirate link is fully sufficient for everyone who wants access to all the material that was archived by the great people here (i would have never had the patience to do it and i have a lot of respect for those who spend so much time on it). Other links that are protected by a more difficult password don't need to be accessable by people other than those archivists, because it is mainly for backup. If you are not one of the people who made it, please don't share information on it.

i've nearly missed an entire thread jeeze, i'm not even gonna bother catching up on the entire thing, i got bills to pay and cats to not walk.

I just finished watching TWL (what a treasure; I was dying laughing every time the camera was on Phil tbqfh) and now this. This is so upsetting. I don't care about copyright but how can people be so ungrateful??? That description makes me so angry I can't even

Weakest link isn't on the DD yet, it was being shared by PMs and someone decided to upload it to youtube

No, the link isn't even on there yet. Although you might want to change your post since apparently certain words in your post may never be uttered again.
You could only get the link by PM from two people on here, so someone get their hands on it and decided to share it with the world, and shade us in the process.

majitzu · Fri Apr 08, 2016 2:51 pm

Calm down.

1. The video is up for everyone to watch. The only thing why we wouldn't upload it to youtube was because copyright and also it was part of idb early acces . -But for Monday with it upload to the doc it would have been available for anyone. So not a big problem.

2. You selfish idiots ... Rude! Where are the thanks for find, download and uploading it?

3. The link to this forum. I don't have a problem with more people lurking but I don't want anyone with a heavy tumblr mentality posting here. I know a lot of people here use tumblr me too but is different. Tumblr has his good and bad parts. I don't want the inmature part of the Phandom

But well in overall is not the end of the world I've spend so much time writing this that maybe the discusión has moved on... Sorry I'm on my class so I have to pay attention too

Just yes to this whole post.

the best place to request post deletions or privacy concerns is probably the Request thread in General Info, guys. the mods will see it quicker, there can be a lot of new pages to catch up on when logging in next.

edit:

what is this passive aggressive tumblr vs everyone else thing gaining traction?
using 'tumblr mentality' as a catch-all is lazy and divisive. i thought the point was to try and get away from (perceived) GG elitism? taking the twitter/tumblr/gg/yt comments phandom divisions out of talking about a fandom behaviour is probably a good place to start.

Kathrynxjane · Fri Apr 08, 2016 2:58 pm

Wow gone for one day and there is drama.

I can't believe someone uploaded it to youtube. We didn't upload it because there must be a reason Phil doesn't want it found. Probably be taken down by Phil soon anyway....

I don't think people are upset by someone uploading it (Was going on DD soon so would probably be found by someone else in the phandom anyway). I am just upset by the description. How are we selfish idiots? Bluebox_away and Spider took time to find the video and download it so should keep it between us for a bit. It is not like we are going to keep it forever.

Fri Apr 08, 2016 3:01 pm

The public dd document is meant to be just that - accessible to really anyone. As Fel said in her post (I'd go back and quote it if I could) the private one is mostly for backup purposes, so as long as no one is actually going around saying the password for that then I think the posts about the cherrypirates one shouldn't really need cleaning up.

I think it's more like someone on idb who got the link and share to their friend and the friend posted on youtube, i don't think we have a mole.

Phil can't claim copyright on it since it is not his intellectual property, which I think belongs to the BBC. And they are the ones that can take it down.I think that is how it works But I doubt they would waste their time on this since it is already quite old.

Wait, did Phil actually say he didn't want it spread around before? I remember someone else had uploaded it on youtube before and it was taken down, but I think we figured that Phil would have little authority to get it taken down, so it was probably removed by the person who uploaded it or their channel was deleted for something unrelated.

(the description of the yt video has now been updated to just give the original air date - no more snarky comments or forum links)

grannypants · Fri Apr 08, 2016 3:05 pm

wow, the last few pages were a bit of a rollercoaster, voldy to angry lurkers in the space of a day
just wanted to say thank you to bluebox-away and spider for being the heros we don't deserve dat hair though phil
the youtube video description pissed me right off you selfish twats... excuse me?? bit ironic when the person who uploaded that is taking the credit for it by putting it on youtube, ugh
tbh though i'm surprised it didn't get out earlier, from the first post about it being on bobnational i managed to very excitedly find it easily as i have a university log in, so i guess anyone else could without having to pm users. also there must be quite a few lurkers on here now since GG is literally a graveyard lol rip
anyways thank you guys for all the interesting posts in the last few days! you have no idea how great this site is for light relief during essay season ps if i fail my degree it's all your fault

kinda off topic but the Jeremy Kyle episode they went to was well after the weakest link (2011 or 2012?) so bluebox-away do you think it would be on your archive thingy?? :mrgreen:

I think we need a new FAQ thread to share the cherrypirates DD but it's Felucca's territory so no one dares.

also kinda funny but one lurker member here is actually called Dan
