Hey guys,
I own the channel AdamBomb and frequently play the game. Lately though, I've been getting spam on my videos linking to a video tutorial for illegal downloads for the game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkejVhITLdc. I can't take action because it's not my copyright, but I was hoping that someone working for Simple Planes might.
Cheers,
Adam
I don't belive you own the channel, later today I will ask if oyu have an account and if it is true I recommend you respond (I'm a bit testy with these kinds of things, some say I harass users while others like me just so you know)
Cool @AdamBomb I'll check it out
@AndrewGarrison Yeah the comment never saw the light of day, but his video was still getting views from somewhere
@OminousGloom Thanks! I'm still getting my feet wet...or my wings dry, with simple planes, but I'm getting better. I just released a new series called Simple Planes War Stories here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2ZUZnSKq-g if anyone's interested, that is.
@AdamBomb good to see you made an account here, thanks again for the awesome videos that you showcase mine and other users' aircraft. Hopefully soon you can make your own cool creations and we can enjoy them alongside your YouTube audience.
@AndrewGarrison yes! So true. Anyone who wants this game free kinda deseves it Though. (i know you can't say much cuz you represent a company and must be formal about it.)
@AdamBomb Thanks for letting us know, but unfortunately there's really not much we can do about it. If you remove the comment from your video that's about the best we can hope for. It blows my mind that people actually download that stuff. That's a surefire to wreck your OS, by installing executables that have undoubtedly been tampered with and embedded with spamware/viruses/etc.
@BeryllCorp Well that happens people pirate but simple planes is a bit excessive in price for those of us without the steam update adding weapons and all that
@BeryllCorp Thank you! And thanks to everyone who checked it out and is doing something about it, hope it gets resolved. But I know that stuff can be tricky sometimes
@Skua Thanks, ots the one thing I didnt already know how to do
@AeroEngineering simpleplanes.com uses Markdown formatting. To put something in quotes, put a > symbol in front of it
Link
And how'd you do the thing at the top
@AgDynamics well, good point. You could track up the computer, couldn't you?
@AeroEngineering Fortuantely, it's not nearly as simple as that. Not only does an IP not give you an exact location, nobody in the United States has ever gone to jail for pirating movies, music, or games. The industry rarely even fines people anymore.
There's also very little that can be done with just an IP address. It's not like you can say "hey my neighbor is pirating movies" and your local police will come arrest them. Which, overall, is a very good thing.
@AgDynamics @BeryllCorp @General360 I wonder why people even do this because it's illegal but the I.p. adress could give away where they live
Hope that guy gets a bit in when making another tutorial. @AndrewGarrison @philiptarpley @kevinmurphy
I watched you simpleplanes vid and it was entertaining! Good job on the video!
This is sad that people should pirate an relatively inexpensive game..
Good looking out, dude! Just tagging the devs @philiptarpley @andrewgarrison @nathanmikeska @kevinmurphy so they'll see it.
