I would add the kiwifarms.net URL as an integral part of watermarks, advertise the site at the bare minimum. This doesn't exclude other words from appearing either.
This exactly.
Instead of putting nigger, why not just put the website URL? Instead of preventing people from using the footage at all, would it not be better to get the site name out there and expose the wholesome chungus 100 creators as users of the vile farms to the point that it becomes normalized and not so much of a scarlet letter?
Maybe I'm being naïve, but it seems like a better measure.
Wouldn't a kiwi watermark be enough? I know cucking people out of the content by using the niggermark is funny, but I think that a transparent Kiwi Farms logo would be enough for credit without gate keeping.
Edit: Maybe the Kiwi Farms logo and the username or URL?
an animated DVD logo bounce overlay with libavfilter and ffmpeg should be as effective and much more difficult to remove than any static watermark
this should be a pretty simple script but normies can't use command line or install ffmpeg
Exactly what I was thinking of. It would be an absolute nightmare to remove for anyone with any kind of tool.
Came to suggest this, that's what those Explore With Us homos do and it ruins all "their content". Smaller watermarks that say Nigger and then a larger bouncing one that's the KF logo. Maybe specialized smaller watermarks depending on the subject matter. (Like Tranny for clips about trannies, etc.)
I think just "Kiwi Farms" or "kiwifarms.whatever" is better than "nigger". If the goal is to get attribution rather than for people to not re-use the clips.
Website name I think some people will be willing to use it and that gives good PR, nigger means nobody touches it and some small bad PR.
Perhaps the only people this would attract are front-page Youtube viewers...
I think niggamark is way too extreme (but still funny). If we are going in this direction I think we should use kiwimark. I’m thinking either the url in the corner or the entire logo in the corner, like I’ve seen some people do in the past. That way if YouTubers use clips from here even if they blur it out we’d know they’d taken them from here.
Re: niggermark vs kiwifarms watermark,
As I understand it, the point of this is to stop react faggots from lazily turning kiwifarms threads into youtube videos wholesale and profiting off of what's documented here without attribution, correct?
While both a niggermark and a traditional watermark would combat this, they have very different outcomes.
A traditional watermark would force youtube react faggots to acknowledge the existence of kiwifarms and in doing so publicize it to their viewerbase, which accomplishes the goal of attribution but carries the risk of driving low quality goyslop consoomer traffic to the site. I don't want that.
A niggermark, on the other hand, disincentivizes faggot retard goyslop churning influencers from harvesting kiwifarms threads wholehog in the first place, dissuades them from making their gay little videos at all, preventing both their profiteering bullshit gay retard grift, but also not putting the site on blast for every gay little retard on youtube and instagram to come shit up.
Maybe Josh or someone else can weigh in on this but I don't see much good coming from a high-quantity influx of low-quality users. Most people don't belong here, least of all the type of bottomfeeders who watch moistcritical or wavywebsurf or whatever.
these two combined is a pretty good idea, but please make it say "KiwiFarms".
Or maybe just "KF", but it might be too obscure or too sanitized for normies to identify.
If the watermark directs people to the forum, we at least get some credit and public recognition
"NIGGER" is funny, but it doesn't help the forum in the long term at all.
if the clippers see a niggermarked clip with the "no no word" they wont even bother
BUT
it they only see a "kiwifarms" watermark, since its not a nono word and advertisers wont get mad, they might bite the bullet and passively advertise the site.
As amusing as the funny haha nigger word is, I think forcing people to acknowledge kiwifarms is better.
Having the kiwifarms loggo plastered all over it with the website link would be great.
It's a double edged sword of course. If everything is kiwi logo'd, the site will indeed get an influx of future pink triangles, but still get recognition. It's either you go out all out or just plaster nigger on everything and get nothing. It also wouldn't help those that genuinely write decent articles about the farms or do credit the site. So honestly, damned if you do, damned if you don't.
a Kiwimark would be funny because it'd show the hypocrisy in anti-Farms people using the farms to cancel people, but the Niggermark is more powerful because it doesn't allow youtubers to monetize the Farms while avoiding mentioning it.
Using a transparent Kiwi Farms logo with the url beneath it bouncing across the screen would absolutely be the best option, nearly all clippers and lolcow channels always refuse to even recognize Kiwi Farms exists, much less admit they get the majority of their content directly from it or people on the site.
Having them pick between actually doing the legwork themselves (they will not) or stay lazy (they will) while automatically direct interested traffic here would be an absolute win.
