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...


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.

alright I think something is definitely going on, would be almost cruel if they knew someone was messing with their page and then do this..

Nice!! So things are definitely starting to come together. The video is 4:18, extended way beyond the original run time. 1969 is 4:19.

There have been a few comments pointing out that mdg has yet to debunk this, or would soon if it's fake. I think assuming that debunking is prompt and consistent introduces a bit of a paradox. It seems like the puzzle as it's perceived here by us, legit or not, is in figuring out wheter it's legit or not. Because if, for example, this HI fbook thing was real and they wanted us to know, they could make it 100% clear by say, tweeting a link to it. That has not happened, and yet we're still interested. The remaining explanation seems to be that we think there might be an intentional game in figuring out the authenticity or lack thereof ourselves. So it only seems logically self-consistent to interpret the lack of an official debunking as fairly weak evidence...if that makes any sense

They've done 1 thing a day for the past 2 days. I think this will be the only thing we'll get today if you don't want to exaust yourselves looking all over the place for hours on end refreshing pages.
