Hoax Videos / Re: New Hoax Videos are SOOOOO bad!

« on: January 02, 2011, 06:23:20 PM »

Hey Heisinme

Totally agree with you my friend and Serenity's vids are some of my faves. Whether we like it or not and as many of us as there are, us believers are a minority and it does sadden me when I see new videos coming out that are just plain silly.

Even with typos, credibility can be intact but the theme and content sometimes is just disrespectful and unneeded.

I got caught up in an argument with a youtuber recently (be it more them arguing). They chose to make a whole video on that rumor from years ago that Michael passed many years ago and was buried at Neverland, it was originally published by the Onion - a satirical website - they put all over their video "HOW INTERESTING" and "PEOPLE MUST BE INFORMED OF THIS" and I politely posted "you do know this is an old rumor, I don't know if this needs a hoax video dedicating to it". Maybe a lil disrespectful on my part but I felt in a sea of fantastic hoax videos, here was a video that brought absolutely nothing new except old, horrible rumors. The videos author went into a violent rant about how they were Michael's number 1 fan and anymore comments from me they knew 'people' who could take me off youtube.

It's this kinda thing that really makes me sad, but of course none of us can stop what happens on Youtube. My real reason for starting this thread was to share thoughts and feelings about the most recent videos and are these poorer videos swaying your belief at all?

It's just upsetting when you watch these newer vids and think "are we running out of clues, is no more evidence?" Do you guys ever feel that way?

Thanks

Hey Serenitys_Dream!

Oh I can always let spelling mistakes slide, they can happen and can disturb the credibility slightly, and like I said I'm even cool with some of the stretching that people do to find clues, it's videos like my example, where it's just a completely useless video that is belittling what we all believe!

Example, comparing pictures of Michael's ears, to me that's stretching BUT there may be a point there, it's all good. But when people are putting up back to front videos and then claiming that "Michael wasn't left handed" isn't that just ruining the hard word that you and many others put in to great, eye opening videos!

Of course this is just a discussion and I wanted people to share opinions on videos they have seen of late, but it's just a shame as I know these videos are turning believers into non believers.

Anymore thoughts anyone?

Hoax Videos / New Hoax Videos are SOOOOO bad!

Hey Guys!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I have been following the Hoax Vids from the beginning, and even from the beginning there were some videos which would really be clutching at straws on very minor bits of information, but they were all very interesting and insightful.

However, some of the videos in the last few months have been AWFUL! This is all culminating in a video I saw this morning where the video advised "Just check out Smooth Criminal from This Is It" it then cut to a copy of the Smooth Criminal performance from This Is It back to front and in turn the rest of the video was reversed (back to front)... So I'm watching and thinking "ok what am I looking out for here?"... and then the video stops and text appeared... "DID YOU SEE THAT!? SINCE WHEN DID MICHAEL DO DANCE MOVES WITH HIS LEFT HAND!!? THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DOUBLE!"  

Is this what we have come to people, videos with nothing new and just really stupid mistakes. I don't know about you but everytime I see a new video with a title like 'NEW EVIDENCE' I get a lil excited; but these recent videos are making our whole belief and us as as a group, less credible!

Imagine if a non believer went on Youtube and that was the first hoax video they watched!?

I'm not trying to knock or belittle anyones opinion, but come on guys, is anyone with me here?
