Very skeptical now. Sorry. :)


That's fair, no worries. But are you thinking maybe I own Sheol Boundary and set that inverted pic after the HI fbook page to copy? Because there is concrete public evidence against that.

I was thinking in that direction indeed. But hey I'm not willing to burn witches here. :) I'm just getting more and more skeptical. Especially because it wouldn't surprise me some WATMM members could be having a very big laugh at our expense :)

Ok, this is very strange behaviour indeed.

My take: he actually reads this forum and doesn't want any of us prying into his private life. And that includes us not even looking into his instagram followers and making assumptions...

Okay one more bit of exonerating evidence in addition to what I mentioned above would be this comment on the original video, which does not say "(edited)" next to it:

And also google's cached version of the channel (at least when I checked earlier) showing it was there Mar 27. (EDIT:, thanks for corroborating TheStatPow)

Nonetheless yes, this seems possible.

Doesn't really prove anything I think? The hoax could've been in the making days before to be unleashed upon us 5th of April.

In retrospect egbdf was quick to connect some seemingly important dots and "coincidentally" on his own YouTube channel. #fishy #skepticalfred

So if you see it was on the yt channel mar 27 (and before) and then later showed up on the fbook page apr 5, then it sounds like you're saying maybe I'm running the fbook page? If that's the case, again, I have no evidence against that and you basically have the same skepticism that I (and everyone) has. I only have evidence that whitney was on the yt channel back in 2013.

I really doubt that this is the case.. but we'll see if I'm proven wrong.

Thanks for clarifying the matter. That unedited post is indeed significant.

I think Fredd-E's had one too many Halcion. The paranoia is settling in :P

Apologies if I have missed something, this thread has about 20 pages of posts to catch up on. What is the evidence that the Marcus Eoin IG profile is legit?

https://www.instagram.com/peteriaincampbell/ followed the marcuseoin account.
Guess that on its own is enough proof.

Sure thing. Yes, that unedited yt comment by me as well as my (apparently) unedited comment here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11284&start=20

For the record, this is all only to show that the Sheol channel wasn't a hoax I set up (unless you want to take the leap that I also run the HI fbook page, in which case I can't convince you). I.e., I don't claim this is as conclusive evidence that the entire thing is legit.

Sorry but that's not good enough for me. Remember the fake Aphex Twin Instagram profile a couple years back that was followed by many of his affiliates? Well, that's still going strong. No Warp takedowns or anything.

There is also this:

Roswell wrote:I brought up that insta account about a hundred or so pages ago. I primarily believe it to be real because he follows an account under the name of "harakiri_diat". This account has a YouTube channel in the bio (and makes it seem as if they own/run the channel). This channel posted the Filmmaker song that was used in SxT before SxT aired. Yeah, plus PIC follows it.

https://www.instagram.com/harakiri_diat/

Some of us can see the followers because we followed the account before he made it private. So now, you must be accepted before you can see anything.

I'm not 100% sure it's real. PIC follows it, which is a great tell, but like Fredd-E said this could be a mistake. Maybe PIC and the brothers aren't talking all the time and he just thought this was the real marcus. But, PIC + the Filmmaker fact is pretty convincing in my eyes.


And don't forget PIC followed the official boc instagram account before it was confirmed being legit.

Okay, I just gotta say...

If Marcus or Mike want us to stop, they need to make a statment asap or have mdg let us know.
It's been said before but just to restate the obvious, please, please, please, please respect BoC's personal life, they aren't going to hide album clues in the people they follow, places they've been or anything like that, so please don't go in that direction.

Instead, I think we seriously just need to sit tight, if there are clues or instructions for us to follow, I would hope that they would be made nice and clear, I REALLY doubt we are having another TH arg, in fact, I don't even know if this is the beginning of any kind of arg.... I don't know what is happening, I've been confused ever since the Raiders of the Lost Ark deep fake on Facebook.

Speaking of, of ALL the social media platforms... Facebook?! Really?! I've managed to follow all of the news ever since the Pioneer Plaque upload back in September last year and I have never been as confused as I am right now. Never thought I'd see the day where BoC may be sending signs through Facebook. Also, side note, Isn't it kinda sad that Mike and Marcus can't use a platform like Facebook as normal? As we all can? It seems like all they've ever tried to do is live normal lives, be normal people, but here we are desperately surrounding their social platforms looking for scraps.

I do think they could have that normal social networking life though, if it is something that they want, they just need to tell us to back off, I'm sure we would all respect that. Anyway.... I'm starting to hope for more transparency, some kind of clear direction so we don't have people sticking their noses into places they shouldnt.

EDIT: I hope they know the reason we do surround their social platforms is because we love their art, not just thier music but their photos, videos and all other art surrounding them. We just want to enjoy what they create, and the stuff they love (Like the music from SxT), since they are so good at creating and have great tastes in art themselves.

If possible I would’ve made this post a sticky. These are some very fine words. Hats off to you.

If we went too far we'd know reaaaal quick. despite this I'm pretty sure they either don't have facebook or do but not under their name like I do. They know how we act and are aware of the fanbase they've built ... they're principally the cause, they've built this reputation to be sneaky and hide things.

Some of these account stayed hidden for a decade. All this is coming into light and it is going as intended.

Anyone have their eye on 4/20? The 23rd anniversary of MHTRTC.
