for years now, ive had problems with pornhub users, uploading all my stuff without credit, which than made me watermark videos.  later, i had to make the watermark more visible because of other problems involving pornhub uploaders

afterwards, they just flat-out cropped out my watermark, so i made it bigger/more noticeable.  they did that to other peoples videos to, so when i wanted to look at someone elses work, i couldnt because they cropped out the watermark, so i had no idea who made the videos in the first place

recently, i put a slightly visible watermark in the middle of my videos, but now i found a video of mine on pornhub with no watermark, and this user put theirs instead.  if you like my videos enough to upload them without watermarks and replacing it with ur own, than all ur doing is hurting all the free users and paid users, and also myself

im not some big named person who makes a fuckload of money, this is the only job i have, if you liked my work enough to give me money and go through my stuff in the first place, than your just hurting everyone involved in the end

if this happens again, where an unwatermarked version is reuploaded to pornhub (or putting your own watermark over the non watermarked version), than i am going to put the non watermarked version on a higher paying tier, and if it happens again after that, than i will be the only person who has the non watermarked versions of future videos

Group punishment for the actions of a few. Not like I dont understand why, but it wont do anything in the end.

Totally understandable

Why are you unwatermarking your vids? I never do that when it comes to my content. It's shitty that people do this kind of stuff, and they don't seem to care that it hurts everyone in the long run. It boggles my mind when theres people who pay for content then hand it out to everyone who didn't bother to support you. Every creator I pledge to I keep it to myself, it's meant for my enjoyment. People have no respect I tell ya.

Yogensha

Yeah, I am rather protective of my Patreon exclusive content. As everyone should be IMO.

man it does suck that your animations are getting plagiarised. It's also stupid how people would plagiarise. seriously why the hell would they. Anyway if you plan to put non watermarks on a higher tier, at least they'll have to pay you more to get it. could be a good detergent. who knows. either way yea plagiarism is dumb.

Awesome Work 👍👏🎂😸🤗😀😇😉😄😃😆

It's not that one shitdick that keeps making a patreon to get content from other patreons and then just slaps some shitty music on it to call it his? I know he's been reported numerous times now, guy's a fuck. His "supporters" are even worse fucks.

You should keep the watermark even make it where you only send it through private message. Or if not increase the Patreon tier. Probably the smartest thing to do. It’ll suck but people who care will support you no matter what

I dont understand why creators even do non watermarked versions in the first place. I also dont understand how a simple watermark ruins the mood for a good fap.

You're approaching the problem from the wrong angle. The people who do that, most likely will NEVER read this post. They do not care one bit. For them, all that matter is that data flows. They won't care about these threats, and they won't care one bit that your attempts at doing "counter measures" will cripple everybody. What you should do instead, is post to pornhub (and other seemingly popular venues) YOURSELF, and BEFORE they do it themselves. That way, you still get the attention you're seeking, and you control the file versions most people see. Watermarks have never, and will never work as a counter measure. They just degrade the quality of what you produce and in the end, reflect poorly on your brand name. That's the reality of the internet, you need to play smarter, not tougher.

i dont necessarily like gov or intervention on the internet but when it comes to this problem i wish people had to make accounts for some websites with their social security information or just any good form of identification because reporting a random account might get it removed but whats to stop the actual person from doing it again. Love the internet for the anonymity but sometimes i feel like there are actions that are just about justified for giving up anonymity

esk0

i no wut u mean, its what i try to avoid which is why i like keepin everything cheap and as easy to view as possible for everyone, but ive been animatin for 4 years and this has been ongoin for 3

esk0

no, this is with multiple people, but the unwatermarked one was only one person i found so far. that was without me searchin my own name or nothin, so idk if theres more like him out there. fuck that guy though

esk0

itll be to annoyin in the end to keep sendin everyone non watermarked versions. people would also want it asap im sure, and since i usually upload right before i sleep, itd be like, 8 hours before they even get it in the first place

esk0

i just wanted to give people the videos without anything in their way is all, pretty much

esk0

oh great, i get to upload to my number 1 most hated site on the internet :/ but your right, not gonna deny that your right, i might just do that instead actually, thanks

esk0

oh no way, i wouldnt even put up my social if they wanted it, hahaha

Kuro

I flagged the video in question, I hope that helps. Also, please upload there on your own, like others already suggested! :)

Have you thought about implementing an invisible or nearly invisible QR code over your video? makes it super easy to find stolen material on websites and incredibly hard to edit it out specifically when it's all over the source. Definitely look into it, I know a ton of digital comic websites do it for comic releases, and I've seen it done for some videos a couple of years ago.

Mosthra

This theft is a very bad thing in my opinion. In addition to the watermarks you place in the corner of your Video (It is easy to erase) you should put your logo or signature in the Video background. They can delete watermark at Video corner. But they can not delete the wall, glass, carpet, curtain, floor ... with logo or signature that looks your Video.

Justin Hutchinson

Just plaster the videos in watermarks. I'm sure none of us would really mind.

esk0

do they even listen to that kinda stuff? and i will on certain things, thanks

André Niemand

Perfectly justified. Do what you must.

I dont like pornhub for that exact reason: its full of stolen and relabeled stuff... They do however are somewhat fast when it comes to removing content, this however doesnt keep people from uploading the same stuff over and over again :(

Just want to point out that this isn't a battle you can win without hurting the people who are actually supporting you. Does DRM on games and music stop pirates? No. Who has to deal with the negative aspects of this DRM like the product stops working (PlaysForSure) or works worse (Denuvo)? The people who paid for the product. EDIT: Also, it's probably safe to wager that a few people who found your work and support it here, came across it on such sites. This may be why they are suggesting you upload them yourself! At the least, it will be easier to figure out how to support you if they see and like it.

Twin_Climax

I suggest putting your logo on the actual models you’re animating. Like a small arm or butt cheek ESK tattoo. I don’t think anyone would mind, and nobody could just crop out the watermark because it’ll be an actual stamp on the 3D models. Just a thought

Zestros

Well god damn, who the fuck went and did that? They deserve a good smackin' around.

esk0

dunno, ive had problems with users from that site forever

esk0

im gonna upload it myself, yeah, best thing i can do without makin to many sacrifices an all that
