Re: Bring down a YouTuber who stole from MICHEALHICKOXfilms (brickfilmer)

I don't think Bricklink has any fraudulent users. I've never encountered one. And if you do, I'm pretty sure that contacting the people in charge would get rid of any fraudulent people. If something on Bricklink looks too good to be true, you're probably just really lucky. It is Bricklink, after all, and it's so popular BECAUSE everything seems too good to be true, but actually isn't.

I actually realised after posting that edit, that there are legally binding contracts on Bricklink, so maybe that gets rid of the frauds. Also, what person in the brick selling industry wants to do something wrong with a Lego fan?

I don't appreciate you stealing my videos... especially since you have the nerve to claim it as your own. Please remove this for YouTube.

That is how you handle that kind of situation.

I have assumed that because the guy is Norwegian, that he understands limited english to read what all the comments say.

I translated a comment on Google translate, asking him to remove the videos, into Norwegian, and posted them on his copies of them. Hopefully he listens, but if he doesn't, this is the comment I translated.

Ikke stjel Michael Hicox videoer. Han legger mye hardt arbeid i dem. Heller ikke kreve coppied videoen som din egen, fordi alle vet at det ikke er ditt.

Vennligst fjern Lego bedragere og Lego skole fra din kanal, fordi alle i kommentarene er veldig sint på deg for å stjele arbeid fra en profesjonell filmskaper.

Beklager hvis jeg stavet det feil, jeg vet ikke norsk.

Shouldn't you guys just PM Michael and tell him to file a complaint/report it to youtube? If the owner of the original video contacts youtube himself the vid will be taken down in a few minutes. Why so much chaos in here LOL

Michael has already commented and nothing has happened (the guy hasn't taken it down, Michael hasn't actually flagged it himself, or has and Youtube hasn't responded yet).  That is why the chaos continues.

That and as humans, we all have a sense of right and wrong and when something wrong is happening, we get angry.

If Mr Hickox flagged the video as "violation of my copyright" it would be down ASAP. If he knows about it I think it's his job to fix this situation now

I'm the boss of Google translate. It always works for me.

Then again, Google translate has come a long way over the years. People still think it's that inaccurate translator that only works for one or two words. Truth is, it's a whole lot better now than a couple of years ago.

There is already a "thread". The YouTube Jerk Thread.

It works better on languages which share a similar alphabet to English. It works like absolute crap for translating to languages like Chinese and Japanese, as they have a different alphabet and sentence structure from English (Probably one of the reason those languages seem to be losing popularity at schools, as you cannot simply type in your homework in and still get an A.)

But I do agree with what has been stated before. With how much attention these videos have gotten, Micheal without a doubt knows about them, and it is his choice whether or not he wants to take significant action. They are, after all, his video. I would think he would, I mean really, he gets more regular views than some people who have over 1 million subscribers. (Seriously, how does he do that?)
