-Someone is cheating! When one attention is bought to an account which has zero video views, and 5 subscriptions one eyebrow is raised. All the accounts here are blank with the exception of the 5 favorites, all subscribed 2 weeks ago. http://www.youtube.com/user/howieam Joined September 05, 2009 ZERO video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago Similarly : http://www.youtube.com/user/roofingator joined August 24, 2008 85 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/ghynes1 joined December 30, 2006 1,210 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/procambarusclarkii Joined June 20, 2009 2 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/theweav70 Joined March 28, 2009 574 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/samboesBHAF Joined March 28, 2009 413 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/deadzebramonkey Joined April 18, 2007 434 video views, subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago http://www.youtube.com/user/Mooja12 Joined April 17, 2007 ~1917 video views (now hidden), subscribed to same 5 channels 2 weeks ago Mooja is interesting as not only is the join date within one day of deadzebramonkey, but also after the whistle was blown came alive having not left any signs of life for the last 18 months and added favorites and featured videos (in line with the suspected protagonists views) and comments in the suspected protagonists demeanor. These are just a few examples. Blank, largely dormant accounts do not all converge on one lesser known channel, and all subscribe to the same 5 channels in a narrow window. People just dont behave like this. -Someone is gaming the videos. Even the IP logs will not really help here as a 3rd party is almost certainly involved. (accounts spreading years all coming alive to favorite the same 5 videos (and only them) then return to dormancy). Circumstantial evidence is the best that is available. It may well have been that such activity was initiated by a third party. However some of the sock accounts (noteably mooja12) then came alive having done nothing for 18 months and added favorites in line with these channels, and defended them by ridicule, using the word genius (a mannerism of howtheworldworks). It is known that Lee Doren (howtheworldworks) has strong links with all these accounts. It is known that Lee Doren (howtheworldworks) is the Crasher in Chief of an organization that uses internet marketing. It is known that Lee Doren (howtheworldworks) is, to put it mildly, a subscriber whore. These facts essentially provide means and motivation. It should also be born in mind that: Lee Doren (howtheworldworks) made an attack video suggesting that the guy who initially uncovered this (cristoballs) take down his video (which he claimed was defaming him) or he would take further action to clear his name. An interesting course of action given the clear pattern noted above. On the whistle being blown, Policytranslated hid their subscriber list. One cant but help feel the easiest way to scotch such rumor if true would have been to have left them open. I know I would have. There are only about 500, and the account is essentially inactive.
