Hello, my friends. Today I come to you with some grave news.
Background:
Some background; A YouTuber by the name of "MrDuuba2" has been successfully been posting videos of unoriginal builds on YouTube for over six months. Downloading and filming builds by Minecrafters such as evQnxa, EpicQuestz, Aurelien_Sama, and Mithrintia, he has been making direct money off of other peoples' work.
I came across his work for the first time a few days ago, and as I assumed he was just a YouTube partner hoping to produce some quality videos and, in doing so, borrowing some builds without asking. I confronted him in a comment on his video containing "Galdor's Hold," a build made by members of my own server and myself, asking him kindly to remove the video, as we didn't feel it was right for him to make money off of our build. I didn't get a response at first, and a few days later, I checked back, and my comment had been deleted. I wrote back again, this time in his own language of German, hoping maybe he would reconsider. Again, the comment was deleted.
In frustration, I contacted some of the guys from my server, as well as Block_Fortress, and we all asked him in comments on his videos to remove those that he did not create, as he never asked these people to film, and has successfully monetized each. Every comment was deleted. He then made a post on his Facebook pages taunting us, who he referred to as the "haters."
By this point I've had enough.
His Offenses:
1) Filming builds without asking permission from the owners
2) Giving no credit to the original creators other than just providing a link titled "Download"
3) Deleting comments exposing that he was not the creator, and essentially saying he built each project
4) Monetizing his videos (essentially, he is making profit off of other peoples' work)
The Builds He Has Stolen:
evQnxa's "City of Arches"
EpicQuestz's "Imperial City" SUCCESS! The video has been removed!
Mithrintia's: "Galdor's Hold" SUCCESS! The video has been removed!
Aurelien_Sama's "Eldaria"
Aurelien_Sama's "Keitaro Temple" SUCCESS! The video has been removed!
Techno's "Cerelia"
What I Want You To Do About It:
I do NOT, in ANY WAY, want you to troll him. He has disabled comments and ratings on many of his videos, and so we are unable to leave remarks. Instead, I want you to do the following:
Go to each of his videos listed above and click the "Flag" button next to the "Share" button. From there, scroll down to the "Spam" button, and then again to the "Misleading Text" option.
This way, we are not TROLLING him, but instead flagging his videos, which is the best way to have his account de-monetized or removed. He has committed crimes against the Minecraft community, and should be shut down.
Thank you for helping out, and feel free to support us on Reddit:
His response to a private message from Katcast:
In case you're not sure: Katcast sends a message of disgust about how he is stealing builds for money, and he replies by correcting her with "*a lot of money." Sickening
