Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????

A Former User

at this point this has to be a stanford social experiment

I put this on the staff Discord since it's a torrent side issue.

@raphjd Well one of them is back again. Has there been any movement on the investigation?

OK, I know that singling out a couple of videos like this is a bit petty, but it really is just fucking odd behaviour, especially when I've seen the same thing happening with these videos on other sites too. Members on those sites have also been asking what the hell is up with it.

Is it:

One person trying to bump the torrent the front page ever so often?
Multiple different users? If so, is it possibly the some person with dupe accounts?
Some sort of malware?
Someone just having fun because people have noticed it?
Something else?

What I'm really curious about is whether or not it's staff who remove it or the uploader. If it's staff then I'm just a bit surprised that the user is still here after it's been deleted so often.

Sorry, forgot to add the link to the new upload:

I think that's why I'm so curious about them. I (and possibly others) have reported them in the past purely because of the odd pattern of behaviour. They've subsequently disappeared from the site, but were they removed by mods or did the upload just happen to delete them shortly after reporting?

We're not told when or why mods remove a torrent, which is fine and I have no real issues with that, but if you report a torrent several times and see it disappear several times you start to wonder why it's coming back over and over again. There are times when I've wondered if I'm somehow being vindictive when I report it, and then you start to think that if it's come back yet again then maybe there's nothing wrong, but then it disappears again, so you don't know whether to report or not or if there's any point or not.

A few months ago I reported a group of uploads that seemed dodgy, and got a slightly terse message later from a mod telling me that I shouldn't exaggerate in my reports. I showed him exactly what I believed was happening, even expanding to include moare that had been uploaded since the report. It, turned out some did show suspicious behaviour, but others turned out to come from other sources, and the mod agreed that my report was accurate.

Since I've not heard anything about this video I can only assume that the mods have no issue with it being reported, which brings us back to this odd loop of uploading and deleting it. In reality, unless there's something malicious going on with the files then none of this matters. It's purely that it has my curiosity set to overdrive now.

File has been replicated many times so any users has no idea w/o knowing that it is disturbing ...
it's like a VIRUS ... finding a whole to infect a system ...
