Are these Vloggers just a scam? SOL or Shmee etc? (Vol. 3)

Yep!

A sincere apologogy for his previous bullying behaviour might be a good start. And he wonders why he's so unpopular.

[egor110]

Where's this bullying ?

Last post from shmee was him taking the piss out of himself for rolling his r's.

Are you two occupying some alternative reality or can you explain what you're going on about?

Tim (Beefmeister) made some posts that were way out of leftfield

I and others took him to task on those posts and he didn't like it so went running to the mods and some of them have now been deleted

He also got very upset at being accused of plagiarism even emailing me for examples which I provided on here and he has also had that post deleted

He has a history of being able to give it but not take it on this and other platforms

I'm sure the nurses and soldiers have huge amounts of sympathy for him

Wtf...... Why aren't the police taking action

- Clearly speeding (to the point at 16.30 the owner visible looks worried about the speed they're traveling at and taps the youtuber to slow down)

- Owner throughout the video doesn't wear a seatbelt

- No front plates.......

I know Youtube have other issues like how to make a good YouTube Rewind video but this takes the piss.

Genuinely do not know how he hasn't had his collar felt. I know people hate him enough to report him as he was grassed up on his BMW finance/ modded thing.

Maybe he'll run out of luck/talent and be off the road for a bit in that way.

Nail on head. He needs a break

[timrud]

Just to clarify, there are a lot of Tim's here:

Shmee - nice guy, not the Tim in question here. Keep up the good work.

Beefmaster - The Tim we are on about, that is being taken to task on his awful behaviour.

Awful behaviour The way you lot are going on it’s like I’ve been sacrificing babies

Don’t worry, I’ll sit down and have a really good think about what I’ve done. The pack mentality on here has really made me reevaluate my life choices.

So, back to YT. I’m loving the content being made by Stradman at the mo, his videos are a bit ADD but the cars he’s got look fantastic all in the same colour scheme. The ‘05 Ford GT joining in the same scheme too, it’ll be crazy. Looking forward to his house build progressing too as that’s something I think we’d all like to do.

Alright, let's try to steer this back on topic. Does anybody watch any of the "virtual" car vloggers - the gamers?

I watch Super GT but that's literally it. I also recently came across this channel. This guy just drives around on Forza/other games and gets crazy numbers. Must have one of the best expenses:views ratio out there!

I enjoy Jimmy Broadbent's content, lives in a shed in his mum's garden, mixes driving sim cars and real cars and is reasonably handy at both. Gets good numbers which doesn't appear to translate into financial success given his living situation

I do think he bought somewhere or will be doing soon.

Real genuine guy, big fan of him and Super GT

What gets me with this LLF guy is that every single person on here will have gone over the speed limit at some point in their driving lives, but this idiot actually documents it on video and sticks it on a big platform like YouTube for everyone to see and seemingly gets away with clearly doing well over 100mph on public roads.

Shmee, Did you have an influence on Stradman buying a Ford GT?

I watch LLF, and do find it entertaining in a watching through my fingers sort of way, but I can absolutely see why people would have an issue as some, well let’s be honest...most, of the driving is lengthy ban for reckless driving standard.

We all speed of course, but this is taking the piss and to film and publish for anyone to view on a platform as popular as YouTube is staggering.

Without being all Daily Mail about it, I (can’t believe i’m typing this) hope that the Police intervene as I fear that it is inevitable that a ‘big one’ on the horizon if things aren’t toned down.

Edit to add: I’m aware that LLF is far from the only channel posting such content, but it is perhaps the most extreme example that i’m aware of.

I'm certainly not solely responsible, but we spent a while discussing it over dinner last month
