Another update on the Unlocked front. This time, the name of the "risembool rangers and unlocked mod" wasn't censored.

Found their yt channel. The channel description matches.

The description says that she's a risembool ranger, but doesn't say she's a mod for them (or unlocked).

Her twitter is locked.

So is her instagram.

No idea if she's bullshitting or if she's actually a mod for Unlocked and the Risembool Rangers. Even if she is one, sounds like she's taking herself way too seriously. Threatening people who upload Vic's streams on other platforms seems really counterproductive. Not everybody has Unlocked. The clips of Vic calling for positivity, talking about con invites and calling out KV are always very popular amongst his supporters on twitter and youtube. Would be stupid to take that away.

I'd like to hear Vic himself adress this. I'm pretty sure he's aware clips from his streams get shared all over the internet, not just unlocked, and he's fine with it.
 
Even if she is a mod for Unlocked, which would be weird, it's not a chat moderator's job to go out and patrol the interwebs for piracy.

The only thing I can think of is if KV is sending floods of hate at Unlocked under the angle of "look, Vic's fans even pirate his streams so no one even cares about Unlocked." In that case, they might have said something to his volunteers, or Vic might have even reached out to the RR guys and said "hey, uh, please stop this?"

But even then, they'd have a lawyer file the claims not a forum mod.

Wonder if anyone is in contact with VIc and might know this either way.
 
I've talked with some Rangers and so far the ones I talked to are not aware of any RR being a mod for Unlocked.

The ones I talked to are doubting this. I've never seen this person liking ISWV tweets.
Are you suggesting this is a gay-op? Idk, maybe...but I think it could just be an overprotective fangirl.

Possibly a fangirl. Just know if Vic wanted recording to stop, he'd ask Squally, one of the head mods to say something and make an announcement on the Rangers pages too.

I'm in the Rangers Discord and Facebook groups. No announcement has been made not even by this person.

I noticed these same posts in the chat during the stream last week. I thought it was odd, but figured if it was gay ops the real mods would have kicked the user because it was posted over and over. I can't swear it was the same user, but it was the same or similar wording.

Looking at her youtube, I think this explains it.

I by no means mean this as a slam. People with Asperger's can perseverate on things. Knowing this, I'm guessing she has decided to take up this cross that isn't hers. Hopefully one of the mods will speak a kind word to her.

Victor Vargas said it was bs as well. But I still don't know what to make of any of this. I suppose it's just watch and wait sort of thing.
 
They really shouldn't have said anything. All this is going to do is encourage speds from KV to start recording and sharing Vic's streams to get him removed.

Not like that would actually do anything, but much ado about literal nothingburgers.

Imagine, something on the internet getting recorded and shared.. WITHOUT PERMISSION

Don't really care one way or the other, but if I was a person connected to unlocked, I would want everyone to get my app. From a VicFan perspective saying "not everyone has unlocked" is a valid reason to want the "exclusive" streams recorded, but from the provider perspective, that "exclusive" content is my one selling point. That said, they were also an Apple/iPhone exclusive app for a long time, so screw em. (This conversation prompted me to go look and I guess they FINALLY have an Android version, but it took them way too long IMO)
 
Whoever is making this claim to be an unlocked mod/ambassador/whatever seems relatively harmless. Just not the smartest idea to pretend to be speaking on the behalf of the Rangers or Unlocked though if no one else agreed to it. Only seems to be painting a target on your own back... unless they want the attention. But can't really enforce the internet to not record streams. It is just what the internet does. If unlocked really doesn't want reuploaded streams, someone can just strike them. I don't think they really would need a warning for that. They'd be within their right to do so if it is really a rule they've had.

I'll look into it.

All I am seeing is an overly self important person.

Lady please the only person's we want to hear on this is Vic and even then it will be taken with a grain of salt until we have the facts and if they line up with what's said
 
Here are Unlocked's terms of service, if we have a bored lawyer:

4.7 [...] Fan Connect does not and cannot guarantee that no unauthorized reproduction, use or distribution will occur.
5.4 [...] Fan Connect acknowledges and agrees that User is and shall be deemed to be the owner of all rights, title and interests in and to the User Content, including, without limitation, all Intellectual Property Rights with respect to any of the foregoing.

As a layman, this reads as though Vic owns the content of his live streams and Unlocked won't police copyright abuse. Any contrary thoughts?

I do wonder if AnnalandriaTano22 is just parroting 8BitNateVA from a prior discussion. 8BitNateVA has recently been promoting 2 #KickVic VAs (and no others) in the Social tab of the Unlocked app.

Having said all that, it's easy to find Vic's most recent live stream in the On-Demand tab of the app and the view count would benefit Unlocked if they start showings ads.

Fucking crazies, they all ought to get slapped. Always ruining everything.
 
Ok so just ignore that post about videos being reported. It's been brought to his attention but that person has no authority over 2 things. 1) over fair use or UnlockedLive and 2) over Vic or his messages to people.

I know it's obvious but I'm also sure some people might wanna avoid uploading clips of his streams especially if they will be false flagged.

If ANYTHING all this person has done is give ammo to Vic's detractors to frame a "ranger" as being someone who is falsely reporting videos.

So feel free to spread his streams around etc.
