@john32123666 said in Genuine question for the mods: WTF is up with this video????:
If these torrents are suspicious, then I encourage you to report them,
action will be taken if these posters violates any rules ...
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.
