Just Another Reason I Hate The Gaming Industry: Riot Games

From ShockblastMedia.com: "But since clearly this industry is run by the philosophy of “shoot first and ask questions later,” I am going to afford Riot Games with the same respect they afforded me: None. I am forced to do what I do best: get pissed and write about it. You could have contacted me...."

i had 26,000 youtube subscribers until a rival channel decided to file 3 false dmca claims against me resulting in the automatic termination of my account and the 350 videos i had made.

youtube don't even review the claims they just take action and tell me i can take legal action if i want my account back. which i can't afford to do.

I had five other videos of the same game that I downloaded from the same site and none of them seemed to be a problem.

"I am too good a person to have to deal with something like this"

Uhh....Yeah?

But seriously, good read. I doubt, however, that the games industry is the only culprit of this. We're certainly the most obvious about it, though.

DarthJay4918d ago

I also doubt it is exclusive to the gaming industry, but man it is night and day from what I have experienced over the previous 10 years.

Nivalis4918d ago

As a fellow games journalist, I sympathise with your situation, however in the past when this same thing happened to me
I simply stopped posting their videos online, I look at it this way, if I don't post their videos, it's them that suffers, not me.

I should also point out that in some cases they watermark a trailer with a specific sites logo (exclusive trailers), and in others there may be embargo's in place on the trailer - even if you don't watch the entire thing it's still a good idea to flip through every video before uploading, and checking the source you obtained the video for any embargo's.

Just my $0.02

DarthJay4918d ago

I appreciate the feedback. I am aware of embargos. I usually get to posting anything I do very late in the day when it has been publicly posted. I don't want to be first, I don't claim to be the best, I just want to have fun. I may have to start a separate account for anything other than video I record myself, because I probably have at least a 2-3 TB of video I recorded myself that I no longer have.

It's cause the females all share the same model... or they're getting younger and younger to borderline strange.
