Most commenters on YouTube are complete low lifes, in my opinion, and have such filthy remarks that i suggest no one even pay attention to their worthless crap. I am sure the Creators could care less what these idiots have to say and believe on the whole that there are gracious and supporting fans in majority here. In a sense, i tend to want the vids to stop being shown on YouTube but it is actually easier for me to view them there in someways so it is hard to call:

1) I usually check out other vids such as Tachyon, OpAphid, itscassie, and some of my other YouTube favorites so it is kinda convenient to have them shown there at the same time.

2) I actually like getting vids from Youtube in which i can put them in a format other than Quicktime i just do not like QT's format particularly. I wish there were more formats on this site here to choose from it would help a lot like: avi or mpeg for example.

Also, LG15 did start on YouTube and won support there. I think it should continue in a way because there still seems to be a fairly loyal base there regardless of the crap load of hate comments. I do find it kinda of funny in a way how most of the hate comments are given by people who still keep watching the vids. Complete morons, if they hate it so much quit watching lol...

I like to watch the videos on the main page / revver just because of the quality of the videos (plus youtube likes to act up on me occasionally)... however, I always go to youtube afterward to see the responses, the Op/Tachyon stuff, the 9483983089 cassie accounts (hush)... and to see what videos are linked to what.

ANYHOW we're getting off topic again. There's not too much to the video, I think. I think the whole point of that video was to get the CUSOON message out, you know?

Yeah sorry bout being off topic i was just chiming in on what others had gotten off to. I think we kinda ran off a bit because it seems like everyone has said about all there is to say about the vid. I am sure this is not the case and it is just seems this way because everyone is away for the holidays and probably won't add their two cents until after the new year. Yeah Chartresuse Mystery Movies = CUSOON. :)

With the YouTube thing, if they stopped using YouTube and stuck with Revver, they'd lose a fair amount fo viewing, and all those earlier videos containing items that may be subjec to copyright wouldn't be able to be brought across :/

With the background changing three times, now that I think about it it's actually very strange, how she's apparently walked along to a new background but edited it out. Maybe there's a message within that.

Yes, it is. Some of the videos are and others aren't..its sort of weird..and it annoys me because I like everything to be uniform..uh, I have slight OCD, so that would explain it. :?

It is uniform, or logical/consistent anyway. The full-screen vids are shot with a (usually) stationary webcam (i.e., tied to a computer). The letterbox vids are shot with a handheld videocam (i.e. mini-DV). I think this has been a consistent pattern in B&D vids since the beginning, and I believe the Gemma and Jonas vids follow this pattern as well.

I know, I just want them all to be the same, as in, all of them are either one way or the other. Thats what I meant by uniform.

I thought the background thing was strange too, but I think maybe it had something to do with reshooting (if you pay close attention the lighting alters a few times as well), maybe Jessica quit so they had to call her identical twin down to the set/location and she couldn't make it until the following day

It's all fairly logical really :wink:

As you change locations in a house (or something comparable) the lighting may also change, since the light is coming from the outside. There are bound to be shadows in one part of the house, while another has ample light for filming.

It seemed as though the background "swtiched" along with Bree's topic in the video.

:arrow: background 1 (BEGIN-00:27): About "Skateboarding", living at Jonas', and being bored
:arrow: background 2 (00:27-01:18): Discovery of Jonas' DVD collection, "active imagination", and mystery shows
:arrow: background 3 (01:18-END): I think here is where she's really trying to clue people in about her code while at the same time (seemingly) trying to throw off, or rather confuse maybe, whoever else may be 'watching'.

*shrugs* I don't really know. It's all just speculation. I'm not the best personto talk to about film techniques, either. But I do know a bit about screen-/script-writing. Oft-times, a background change is just used to convey a different feeling. While that may not be a direct message, it is used mainly to direct certain viewers' attention.

I wouldn't support this decision. For one thing, when I'm at work, I can't see the Revver vids -- I have to watch the new videos on YouTube. For another thing, there are still plenty of people who watch solely on YouTube, and who have nothing to do with the sick and twisted comments that appear there.

Frankly, I'm beginning to feel like I may want to just watch the videos and not participate on the forum anymore. The clues are frustrating and annoying, and the level of discourse here is becoming increasingly unsatisfying. At the same time, I'm still enjoying the character interactions in the videos, especially now that Jonas, Bree and Daniel are all together.

You have quoted some of the more tame comments on YouTube, there are others that are so repulsive you wonder how they let these people loose on the streets, you would think they belong in a mental institution where they wouldn't be a threat to society. Of course maybe some of them are, do they let mental pacients have access to the internet?

I can tell you from experience they don't let mental patients have access to the internet. Though most people in the mental hospital are quiet and well-behaved and polite. As opposed to the people out of the hospital.

Is it because they are all sedated?
