Cody is probably under the spotlight due to his relationship with King of Random.

Having videos out there making nitroglycerine would clinch it.

The law guys need very little to make very serious allegations/charges, and it's all there on utoob.

To be fair, Both Cody and Grant have only stuck up those videos to make cash, so if it backfires, well, that's Business.

Edit:
I've chatted with Nurdy once and also have some videos on utoob.
Hopefully i'm not targetted (!)

I am not disputing that both GT and CR are in it for the money. YT encourages that. It just seems that practical Science is unfairly targeted while compilations of people dying in car accidents is considered ok.

That first one is garbage.

YT should ban it immediately due to random themes and inconsistent posting timing/quality ;)

Edit:

Doing the animations for the Rocket Science vids was great fun.

Sadly chemplayer is now gone from YT. That amazing catalogue of videos are now terminated.
There’s a couple of videos I really wished I’d saved though. I understand that chemplayer has the full backup but where is the motivation to repost them anywhere? YT has the widest audience and the monopoly on video content which sux really since they have turned to shit ever since sue took over. Hopefully they can win an appeal but I doubt it. The appeal system is pretty much just for show IMO. Hardly anyone wins.

So we are at the point where if you find a good chem yt channel, you don't subscribe; you download. Because you don't know when it will be gone.

I would pay actual cash for a set of chemplayer videos on a DVD.
We are talking about a sufficient volume of material that the whole upload/download process is not trivial, and, IMO there is something appealing about a physical copy. I have watched them all twice, learned a lot, downloaded a few, and naively thought I had some time to see them again.

A bit depends on what chemplayer(s) wants. Hopefully they will chime in and give us an update.

Likewise. A complete set would be well worth paying for. There was probably around 100 + videos many of them unique and all were well produced and presented in a great way. He did say that the channel would likely be gone in a month and he was right. it’s pretty damn close to a month. It really sux that the years of hard work can just be deleted at the whim of someone who disagrees the validity and safety of the content.

If you look on the front page of the board you find teh various forums. One of these, whimsy, is set up so that it is not searchable by search engines and not open access. Once you have been around a while and contributed, you can request access from an admin.

In the meantime, if you really want to grab the link that velzee posted, I suggest you send him a message via U2U.

Videos Archived


Community,

I often make archives of content I feel might disappear.
I have on hand 182 videos of Chemplayer in 720p @ 30fps.
The Folder is 16.4GBs in size. If anyone needs my help with this let me know.

I normally backup in 720p due to the amount of storage space videos require.
I also other channels archived in 720p or the best that was available.
Most of the other channels are still online, but I like to play it safe.

Chemplayer - 720p
Doug's Lab - 720p
LaFFle - 720p
MYST32 - 480
Nile Red - 720p
Nurd Rage - 720p
NUX - 720p
TDC - 720p
UC235 - 480p

If a moderator needs my assistance in getting this files out, please send a U2U.
Not sure the best way to go about it, but I'm here to help the community.

Clarification


I want to clarify the statement I made earlier.
I have an offline backup of this material.

I do not have links to this material for download.
I do not have online space to provide that amount of data.

I am willing to upload, and take the time to upload, the entire archive.
The moderators or the community will need to devise a storage location.
Provide me access in a U2U and I will upload the content.

Alternatively, if someone can suggest another method of delivery, please suggest.
Thanks for undestanding.

Nurdrage used to frequent here but is no longer active. He is active on reddit and twitter.

The strike was for the final video in his pyrimethamine synthesis -- a project which IIRC took about a year.
This smacks of ignorant idiocy. Pyramethamine is a drug used to treat toxoplasmosis and used to be a treatment for malaria. It is not psychoactive and is not the kind of drug that could ever be abused.

Nurdrage chose this as a project because some years ago the pharma companies producing it hiked the price up to $75000 per monthly treatment. In response a group of students synthesised it for a fraction of that cost as an undergraduate project. Nurdrage wanted to demonstrate that the same could be done with simple equipment using OTC sources for all reagents. The reaction sequence, planning and execution was a fine example of the usefulness of amateur hemistry and included several novel discoveries. It is great science and has huge educational value.

There can be no reasonable justification for taking this video down. But it falls under the deliberately vague category of "community guidelines" and YT reserves the right to do as they wish. Of course, Nurdrage will probably get only 250 characters to lodge an appeal and that will likely be read by a bot and not a human. The system is broken.

I believe that Nurdrage's entire offerings have been preserved by several members. It would be worth making contact with him to see if he would be agreeable to his work being uploaded here in the chance that his whole site goes down.
