Yes, the youtube thumbnail was a mistake by someone working on Friday night trying to make sure the video was fine.

  • Edit: Actually, this was said by a dataminer and taken as truth, we don't know if it is true, if it was really a thumbnail either, we are only believing that's the case.

But it was spread by leakers.

And 2 days before that, a non-spoilered picture of Revenant was leaked to this sub.

This might sound hypocritical coming from someone who posted leaks before, but I didn't know how harmful they were back then, and I made the mistake to post them here.

I think it's time we either remove non-spoilered leaks from this sub, or we do as other subreddits and only allow leaks in r/ApexUncovered

We send memes to r/ApexOutlands, we can do the same with leaks.

Most of the spoilers this week were shown to people without them wanting to see it.

Edit: I go to have a nap and misinformation goes wild on this thread.

  1. There is NO PROOF the video was on youtube earlier, you're taking someone's word for it when it makes no sense.
  2. It doesn't matter who posted it first, if another leaker with 3x followers posts it minutes after the other leaker then they are both at fault.
  3. I posted leaks in the past, I've admitted to it and said to regret it like 20 times in these comments, I recognize I was wrong to do so, people change. and I was ignorant on the harm it did

I wouldn't trust what people illegally sharing our work say. Just as a baseline.

A thousand times this. To echo what Drew said, it took 100+ people here 6 months to develop this moment. Art takes a painfully long time to create, and it only took seconds to ruin it.
