Boogie2988 had everything deleted - General

[video]https://youtu.be/ZMY1pjnLSw4[/video] Feel how you want about about the big guy, thats just shit. also yeah sorry its omega if no one likes him, first guy talking about it. (un sure if this should be here or in SH)

I REALLY hope YouTube keep account backups to recover from this shit. With the size of Google/Alphabet, you'd have thought that being able to damage control shit like this is a top priority.

they do. they did it with watchmojo too and recovered titles + descriptions for all their 30k+ videos

[QUOTE=Silentfood;50594884]I REALLY hope YouTube keep account backups to recover from this shit. With the size of Google/Alphabet, you'd have thought that being able to damage control shit like this is a top priority.[/QUOTE] i'm not terribly worried about him getting the content back, that's gonna happen for sure, my main concern is the fact that he's missing out on days/weeks of revenue and subscriber growth based on his socialblade he was averaging like 300k views a day which is anywhere from $250 to $500 each day, if i was him i'd be having trouble sleeping knowing that i was losing this for no reason other than some epic youtube hacker troll decided to kill arguably one of the most down to earth and nicest guys on the website. i've spoken to boogie before and the guy even sent me a hearthstone beta key back in the day, he's an incredibly nice guy and i have no idea why anyone would do this shit. i guess "because i can xDxDxD"

Why the fuck would you hack boogie? He's one of the nicest people I have ever seen What the fuck is wrong with people

[QUOTE=TheDrunkenOne;50594897]they do. they did it with watchmojo too and recovered titles + descriptions for all their 30k+ videos[/QUOTE] They did the same of LinusTechTips when his channel got deleted/hacked.

What about Joel and that Towel guy, he deleted Joel's videos and YouTube swooped in and undeleted everything because it's still stored for a bit even after deletion.

God damn it. Why do hackers do it to the nice people? GO hack keemstar or leafy ffs

[QUOTE=Jelman;50594995]God damn it. Why do hackers do it to the nice people? GO hack keemstar or leafy ffs[/QUOTE] I'd imagine because it gets more attention.

[QUOTE=Lawligagger;50595011]I'd imagine because it gets more attention.[/QUOTE] I'd say leafy or keem getting hacked would drum up more attention due to who they are and the mountains of controversy and drama they drum up

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;50594941]Why the fuck would you hack boogie? He's one of the nicest people I have ever seen What the fuck is wrong with people[/QUOTE] I know that there is a few people that despise Boogie greatly due to his non-stance on certain issues (one of them being Gamergate, in which he was banned from NeoGAF and blocked on Twitter by prominent people), which I don't understand at all. Boogie didn't deserve the hate he got at all.

Hopefully he will restore everything once he gets back home.

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;50594941]Why the fuck would you hack boogie? He's one of the nicest people I have ever seen What the fuck is wrong with people[/QUOTE] That's exactly why. Some people just like to mess with nice people in the hopes to upset them, or the community that follows them. But as with Joel, I'm sure this will be rectified soon enough and Youtube will put all of his videos back up. As for people saying "HE SHOULD HACK KEEMSTAR", that would honestly only result in a win win for him. He gets more publicity by being hacked, he'll more than likely be able to get his account and videos back anyway, and then he'll make a video to the tune of "NOTHING CAN STOP THE DRAMA ALERT NATION" and probably pin the hacking on Pyrocynical or something to cause even more stupid drama. As much as we want Keemstar to fade away, he's not going to as long as we keep bringing him up, because he thrives off of internet drama. And all these videos about taking him down aren't going to drive him away. If anything, it's only going to give him more publicity, and the intensely negative view points of said videos may actually have the opposite effect of making people side with Keem. The best way to have Keemstar die out is just to ignore Keemstar. Just don't watch his trashy ass content.

His channel is back up thankfully. Glad to see it was resolved quickly.

Seriously, I know it's been said already, but fucking Boogie of all people? Literally why?

He's such a cool dude this is a shame.

[QUOTE=Wolverunder;50596267]Seriously, I know it's been said already, but fucking Boogie of all people? Literally why?[/QUOTE] Because he's fat. No really, that's where a vast shitload of his hate comes from. A lot of people just can't stand the thought of a fat guy being happy and doing something they love.

The only complaint I could possibly think of at all with Boog is probably that he's too neutral, he's even apologized for fair opinions as if he was in the wrong he's TOO nice, is what I'm saying :v: [editline]26th June 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;50596377]Because he's fat.

why is this guy blaming google for that guy getting his phone comp'd cause it really doesn't have anything to do with them

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;50596409]Whilst I enjoy his content I hate people who are just like him. Being too nice get's bad attention.[/QUOTE] it can get pretty annoying its like "Oh my god you pussy man up and say something that isn't kind for once" :v: This is why people like iDubbbz, Garry, and TotalBiscuit are amazing. they absolutely are unfiltered, but they aren't assholes in any way either. They're chill dudes who are actually pretty nice.

Well, that sucks. I'm guessing he was logged in on his channel when they hacked his phone, and although that'd make it easier for him to manage his channel, it's a surefire way to get it compromised, if you ever misplace your phone, or worse - get targeted by a hacker. As for the rest of his social media accounts, I hope they can all be restored too.

It's good to see that Boogie got his channel back, though I don't understand why the fuck anyone would hack Boogie of all people. If it were someone like KEEMSTAR i (personally) wouldn't mind, but Boogie, really? The guy's a really likable person and i don't see any reason to hate him, though the hacker probably did it just to get their 15 minutes of shame just like what Towel did when he ""hacked"" into Joel's account.

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;50594941]Why the fuck would you hack boogie? He's one of the nicest people I have ever seen What the fuck is wrong with people[/QUOTE] Boogie is such a genuinely nice person. You literally cannot hate him.

Well you can if you really want but 99.9% of the reasons are bullshit and the 0.01% that isn't has to be super excaggerated to turn it into hate

francis is fucking hilarious, and one of the few youtubers worth watching. fuck the dude that did this, though props i guess for having the skills, he should use them on better shit.

[QUOTE=J!NX;50596405]tbh the sad thing about fat shaming Boogie is that he's insanely self aware about it and struggling to try and fix it and when I say struggling, I mean it's his biggest dream in life, to be thin[/QUOTE] And that's exactly why they see him as a prime target. Because they [i]know[/i] they can hurt him easier than anyone else.

How the fuck does a phone number get compromised? Did someone steal his phone?
