Thanks for playing, yes to those that spotted it eventually, it's your resident youtubing moron with a tramp beard here, TGE.

Ciao for now
Well that was mildly entertaining. Welcome Tom, many pics and snippets about your cars and I think you'll be OK on here.

PS was it the beard insult which tipped you over the edge?!

Now George has admitted to being TGE, perhaps he can answer a lot of the questions that have been asked in this thread. Got my popcorn ready, so how about an evening with a Youtuber?

You can't go without telling us what happened to your GT4. Redeem yourself.
Hahaha. The answer will be coming in a, (predictably appalling) Vlog very soon. Meant to film it this evening actually but became distracted by a pizza.

I've seen him elude to having sold it on Twitter a few months back. In the grand scheme of things, a year on how many are actually still in the hands of their original owners anyway?

I'll be doing a Q&A video soon, where I will be dodging questions I don't like, & waffling for England. Join me then sir.

Haha yes. The beard thing was a step too far. There's always one, and I am VERY sensitive about my facial foliage.

Oh dear. You're not helping yourself here.

Whether a poor attempt at self promotion or a genuine trolling exercise, you're missing an opportunity to bring in new subscribers or enhance your existing ones experience by communicating with them, possibly by answering questions/queries that some of the guys and girls here may ask you. (Like what's the script with the GT4...?)

Instead you're coming across as a bit of a tit.

Can't tell if your Shmee baiting was in jest or not either, or whether he knew you were trolling. If it wasn't in jest you probably owe him an apology.

Oh please. All a bit of fun going 'undercover' & rustling for a bit. Suprised it took so long to be rumbled tbh.
And I wasn't actually rude to anyone, for the record.

I've had fun anyway. I'll try to be sensible on here from now on too. Can't say I'll be that active though. Only a certain amount of social media a man can take.

That makes no sense, but never mind; the aim was to get him to out himself and he now has.

Apologies if I upset you - I can see you're besotted with anyone who has a flash car. They can usually look after themselves, though. wink

Davide Cironi is still one of the best and has videos on some really interesting, more obscure Italian cars, just means you have to read subtitles, heres a recent one of his where he drives the Bugatti EB110 GT and chats to some of the guys at Bugatti involved with its creation

In related news, it seems some YouTube advertisers are getting uncomfortable with what videos their ads are linked with:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-39325916

Might this be the start of scheme where big advertisers come up with a 'white list' of approved channels that they are happy to 'sponsor'. Good news for those popular channels that can get on the list.

I was going to ask the other day why all the modern youtubers wave their hands around like a confused Italian or a 90s field raver.

It's like they've all been coached by the same company in how to wave arms in front of the camera to engage and impress the Morlocks. Plus all those inane noises that well kook street folk seem to continuously make inbetween the misuse of words.

While I don't think extremist videos bare much connection to automotive content, there is already a system whereby advertisers can white list certain channels and even Google offer their own 'Preferred' channel list of around 500 or so across different genres.
