The Hulu Epidemic

Okay, so Hulu has become a real problem recently, with misplaced videos. I know there is already an article. But I wanted to express my own views. Here are links to misplaced videos. Get the Hulu user off of Fanpop!

1.http://www.fanpop.com/spots/lady-and-tramp/videos/2934678

2.http://www.fanpop.com/spots/looney-tunes/videos/2917135

4.http://www.fanpop.com/spots/bill-kaulitz/videos/2916974

5.http://www.fanpop.com/spots/faith-lehane/videos/2925486

Okay, so there are ten links of misplaced videos. But thats nothing. Hulu has uploaded hundreds of videos, and many of them are misplaced. If you find a link to a misplaced video, put it in the comments. Maybe, just maybe, we can get rid of Hulu.

Why get rid of Hulu? Yes sure Hulu misplaces videos, but they are only helping to make fanpop better. If you see something misplaced, just report it and be a good fanpop user. Not a lazy one that would rather write long articles about it.

Yeah, hulu's posted videos on spots I've created, what's the big deal? I can't watch them because I'm in Australia but I'm sure other people are enjoying them and they ad something to the spot, can't people stop whinging for a change and just enjoy fanpop?

Okay, so say there's a misplaced Hulu video right? You can try reporting it, but it doesnt get deleted. I'm not against the Hulu videos in general, just against the user, who isn't even a real person, but a webcrawler. If a regular Fanpopper added Hulu videos, it'd be fine.

By the way, if you want to make a valid argument, try and spell your words correctly...

Okay, it's bad. But if the videos are reported eventually the staff will sort them. If they seem not to, report it again and add a note on explaining about it.

There are only four members of staff to sort it, so don't get too frustrated if it takes some time.

They shouldn't have allowed the user to be a member if there are only four people to moderate the videos. It is inappropriate of them.

I love Hulu!! They post full episodes of shows that I miss and their videos are great quality. Keep them around, they are only helping Fanpop!

Hulu is okay it sucks if you live overseas like me but there are ways around that . Anyways i think we should just add the Hulu videos to spots instead of the Hulu user.
Then they won't get misplaced as so many of them are.

Hulu videos are good for people who live in the USA, but they shouldn't be added by a web crawler that can't add them to thge right spots, I've reported all these videos.

I totally agree with you jonapello, but I don't live in the US so maybe I'm biased. But the reason I love fanpop is because it is made up of groups of people getting together to share the things they love, and Hulu is a company that has no interest in the greater fanpopping experience. To me, it just doesn't seem to fit in here, I agree that if fanpoppers had added their videos and taken the time to make sure they were properly categorised, I would be all for it.

if course i agree etc etc but let me state not ALL users have better keywording than hulu..and not all users add stuff for the fanpooping experience- but for their medal count.

Yeah, I agree with you germany123, I see it all the time - people linking mass amounts of videos from YouTube to a spot within 20 minutes or so - obviously they have not watched the content but they link it anyway. It annoys me but it's their choice to do so, and there is nothing I can do to stop it except rate their linked content accurately - if they haven't spent the time to preview stuff they're adding I'm not going to feel bad for giving them 1 or 2 stars if it's rubbish.... But I still prefer to see that than Hulu videos.

Yeah, sorry about that, but a lot of the misplaced videos have been removed, which is a plus.

I partly agree with aholic about them trying to make Fanpop a better place, but they could at least find a way to stop miscategorizing tons of videos. But still, they submitted a lot of good videos to my inFamous spot, so I'm pleased with that.
