    Like one has said before, if Mog/BG really had something to lose by posting these vids, I'm willing to bet you'd see a lot less of them. This is why you don't see people posting videos of raw information on how to make the most with the least amount of effort. Doing so would equate Coca-Cola publicly releasing their formula for the sake of proving god-knows-what.

    Anyhow, if you really want to post something impressive, fuck the world/server first - show it done with multiple setups and not this liquid cookie-cutter setup that's already formed.

    How the hell are we doing cookie cutter setups?

    My videos are the first videos on the web usually, and only tutorial on the web at the time. So explain to me how being the first person to do something, with no information on the web of other setups or strategies, equates to "cookie cutter"?

    It doesn't.

    Anyone who copies MY video setup (seeing as we provided the strategy AND the video before its found anywhere else) is copying OUR setup. Thus making it "cookie cutter." It becomes "cookie cutter" when people follow my strategy. Its not cookie cutter when I INVENT the strategy.

    Try and find a video or strategy posted before my videos of Chimera Kill.
    You can't. There were none.

    Now, if YOU want to start making videos for the community of alternative setups, to help them, be my guest.

    Otherwise, piss off.

    I do this to help people who otherwise would not be able to complete the content. If you can't see that, you are blind. If I never posted the "How to kill XXX" videos, I would be ensuring more farm time for my own LS while everyone else figured it out, now wouldn't I?

    But then you would probably be bitching that I was hoarding the win strategy.

    Lol, bullshit dude. You do this to promote yourself and to brag - otherwise you wouldn't race the rest of Eorzea to General Discussion to post; Calling it a help reference/guide is a convenient by-product. I recall you requesting millions from people wishing to clear Darkhold at one point, even after making your famous "Darkhold Video Strat". Heh, some help desk. Sorry, I'm not one of your sheep around here.

    The fact that you are the original proprietor of said setup is a thin defense. A sheep is a sheep is a sheep. If you really want to help this community, do all the self-promotion you want, but as was said before, give the players some fucking time to figure it out for themselves. Post that you beat it first, post a shitload of screenshots if it pleases you, but fucking hell give the rest of Eorzea some adventure for themselves.

    Don't watch them then. Figure it out on your own.

    Nobody forced your eyes open and made you watch it. They are most definitely optional.

    Btw, are you seriously mad that I posted them "too quickly"?

    Someone has to be 1st man.

    Sad bro.
    You sadly do not understand - along with everyone else that says, "If you don't like it, then don't watch it". By posting these vids, you virtually create a ripple effect that binds everyone and anyone who does watch it to demanding the setup shown in the video. Thereby, actually having the opposite effect of the assistance you intended to provide.

    Want proof? The 'essential' Sentinel before 1.21, and the "WTF why didn't we just take out all the nails before?" post 1.21.

    Yes, I'm pissed off that you posted them too quickly. As if that isn't apparent.

    I'm not your bro, youngster.
