These YouTubers Are Redstone THIEVES (Steveee, ShulkerCraft, Gamers React, etc.)

[@ThatMumboJumbo]

Great video, highlighting a problem I have been shielded from for many years because of my size. Coming up with an idea, then building that idea are the two most challenging parts of creating redstone content. These people (there's plenty more as well) bypass both these painstaking parts of the process. It's almost impossible to compete with KZbin channels that do this, as they can put out 5-6 seemingly original pieces of content per week that their unknowing fans eat up. As I say, I am privileged that I don't face this problem often, with only the boldest stealing my work, but my heart always goes out to the small/mid size KZbinrs who are getting their content taken left and right. I may end up making a video on this topic myself.

Hearing Mumbo saying he might've not been able to do something that a smaller redstoner did was amazing!

[@BowelSyndrome]

I remember how I used to get inspired by amazing creators like you and Mumbo to make countless redstone doors that spring up in my mind. I spent about 7 hours as a kid making an exit and entry floor piston door, and about 10 hours as a teenager making a circular floor vault door. Both of them were extremely fun to make, but that barely scratches the surface of the countless hours redstone engineers put into their builds. I feel betrayed that such high sub content creators can just feel entitled to pluck whatever they want from a small youtube channel and get away with it. Good on you Purpledragonnuke!

[@ModdedMarionette]

Something pretty funny actually happened to me on one of Steveee's videos a very long time ago. I remember it was something like "how to draw in Minecraft" or something, using the power of the good ol' Command Blocks. It was a very very simple design, but Steveee pretty much "brute-forced" through the whole thing without any explanations on the purpose and functions of each Command (I can see how suspicious this can be now that I think about it). Seeing this, I was worried that potential beginners might not be able to understand what exactly is happening in this design and forced to copy and paste the whole thing without learning anything. I believe that it would be more beneficial and fun for these beginners to actually understand the design. Therefore, I left a comment providing a full explanation of how everything works in this design and what purpose does each Command serves just so people can enjoy what's shown in the video themselves as well and possibly create their own designs using what they have learned from this. Well guess what. My comment was deleted not long after it was written. Like, I am not even trying to call him out because I am someone who you would call "lives under a rock" and I have no idea if he stole this design from elsewhere or not. At that time I was just confused. Confused about why he would delete such a comment that can benefit the viewers more, making this video of his more valuable than before. This confusion of course led to my suspicion that something fishy might be going on here. But I decided to just let it go since I got nothing against him. I forgot all about it not long after. Now? It's all coming together now. It was indeed a stolen design, and he was afraid of being called out by someone who actually understands the design (even though I have no idea that he stole this design from elsewhere lol).

Of course this doesn't apply to everything but typically these larger channels make instructions in higher quality. Part of the reason I like shulkercraft so much is that they make most of their guides on making farms easier to follow than most other creators.

[@neoqwerty]

I feel kind of vindicated that when I take a redstone creation and replicate it in one of my worlds, there's always a sign near the most accessible redstone components (or outright in front of the demo build in my SMP lag tester world) that actually says whose tutorial I followed, if I modified it (I note down what I had to tweak, usually it's adding delays or space restrictions), and if hybridized I have both designs' creators on the sign(s) (and any official name the systems' creators gave them). That way at worst, all I have to do to remember where it's from is to open my old test world or go into the "repair hatch" and find the note I left myself, because I don't always remember who first posted a design. (and sometimes I have a "made b X and popularized by Y" sign, when someone credited another's design and made a tutorial on it from schematics I can't understand)

Underrated very underrated channel I've ever seen in my life . More underrated than Ryan Trahan. Like you deserved more than 10M subs. Thank god this was recommend to me . Those fools will pay!

Your redstone designs are Phenomenal, you have such amazing talent, and your friends do as well. Keep up the great work my friend 😊👍

[@HelgaRakel]

Nice job calling these people out.

[@noobgamer6126]

0:26 this is a problem that I can really agree with. Ofc my art is so bad that no one wants to steal it, but my friend is an artist and really knows this feeling.

[@GulperCatfish]

A documentary level voice destroying redstone gremlins? This is my type of content!

[@Captn-Z-Fear]

Such a shame to see this problem is still in the KZbin community. As a content creator myself I can say it feels degrading when you spend sometimes more than a day brainstorming videos ideas, executing recording and editing, just to see someone spend 3 seconds of their time taking it and adding some cool sound effect or music over what you made and calling it something "new."

[@Lampe2020]

ShulkerCraft have improved massively since then, always crediting the creator of the works they show if it isn't actually themselves who made it. But when I looked at their older videos I noticed that they didn't give credit back then.

[@BlueKirby808]

Maybe they learned their lesson from this video?

[@mikechad27]

7:15 biggest roast ever

[@gbilo24]

I really agree with you. People work so hard for their redstone contraptions, and deserve credit.

[@Gecko1]

really good video. tbh I would hardly call them redstoners if they dont know what they are doing

[@MaxxBaseball]

7:45 to be fair they realized the mistake and fixed it so I don’t think any harm was done

[@foxes1127]

They made many farm tutorials without asking the farm designer. For example a wither skull farm by ianxo4. Ian had already made a tutorial on the farm and they decided to just steal the farm design and get views.

I do completely original game pixel art, sometimes with reference that I give credit to. But some guy came in, stole my art and claimed it his own, copy pasting my art in order to bypass the credit system. I was damn annoyed and added a copyright to my sprite sheets.

[@abhiyaan7265]

I felt so warm hearing mumbo compliment you... I can only imagine how proud you felt... Keep up the good work mate :)

[@XspenceifMC]

I adapted a shulker unloader that didn't allow for empty shulkers to go through the system. Basically added 2x circuits but it was my first truly successful attempt at redstone problem solving. I still use the design to this day. It's really good if you're a dump and run kinda player.

[@neelammaurya151]

The leaves enderman farm he first built has major flaws aswell he often makes mistakes in copying from original creator

[@soldier6971]

I feel so bad now, because I built this from the copied video thinking it was original a while back. I'll definely use yours instead when the time comes!

great voice you have there, purpledragonnuke! (Btw, you sound almost exactly like whitelight.)

[@Mike.101]

5:21 This person wasn’t playing on the pocket edition (bedrock edition) he was playing on the legacy console edition. Specifically the PS4 legacy console edition you can clearly see the spacing between the buttons and hot bar is as well as the gamma The legacy console edition is a mix of Java and bedrock. But mostly Java. > Java with Gameplay and mechanics > Bedrock with exclusives like potions in couldrens and being coded in C++

[@Purplers]

Yes, but he claimed it worked on every single edition of Minecraft. Pocket edition, switch, bedrock etc. In his video it worked because he was playing on legacy console, but the point still stands.

wow. I did not know how big and widespread this issue was. I feel terrible for the people who take hours coming up with designs to end up with a mediocre number of views, just to have them stolen by bigger creators.

[@DanielH212MC]

Ianxofour's Minecraft Elegance series has been ripped off so many times. His farms are insane. Not necessarily high yield or anything but the output/building effort ratio is ridiculously high. I love his designs, but I've seen several of them uploaded by random people with no credit at all (or the bare minimum, just a link or name drop in the description with no mention in title or video itself).

[@steveplaceholder6522]

I think only laz1en asked ianxofour for his design tutorials

[@tarnex]

When I met gamers react I instantly knew he was that type of contect creator that is "lazy", half of his content are videos that are supposed to be uncommon or something and then you see in one of his videos for example how someone found geode on the bottom of the ocean, and I also noticed how his content is made for younger generation like repeatingly using cringe audio so he would have his audience younger so he wouldn't get exposed easily probabbly.

[@amymesser1053]

I like how purplers uses background music from the channels he talks about

[@Saxophonin]

I didn’t realise shulkercraft did this. I was well aware of some channels like steveee and megamanny but Shulkercraft actually see,Ed quite professional. It’s scary how easy it is for someone else to steal others work.

[@FullPowerPillock]

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS PURPLERS. the bedrock KZbin community is so bad at this point I simply walked away from it forever. there wasn't any choice in the end. as a small channel you won't see any growth over anything from the works of stolen java content that simply doesn't work, its just a complete mess compared to java that was built on KZbin as much as KZbin was built on Minecraft. bedrock had a lot of potential and also flaws but it has died by the hand of those who milked it for everything and drove away their own audience. it was hard walking back to java after trying to work to help bedrock in so many way but there's only one road left.

[@BlueKirby808]

This may sound irrelevant, but I like your redstone builds :)

[@IIwII_usxx]

i think shulkercraft is probably the only one on this list to not done anything too bad, they still gave credit to the video they saw, and when asked to give credit to someone else that helped or made the design they added it, and now they give credit to every farm they use, probably the least “thief” like creator on this list.
