Talk:The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald Episode "The Legend of McDonaldland Loch" (Limited Release 2003 VHS)/@comment-26897790-20150816233910

Inkingboy was a troll, and likely didn't have the tape to begin with. If he cared about "preserving" anything the episode he would have been uploaded months ago. Look at his profile, arrogance about how he was the ONE who found and uploaded it in it's entireity. All he wanted was attention, and to be praised as some kind of hero for uploading footage that he never did. Meanwhile other people selflessly upload much rarer things, some that they spent large sums of money on, without asking for a shread of attention.

This brings me to the tape itself. At first I believed it, but after seeing the behavior of the OP after I began to question its authenticity, and I began to think. The front and back of the "case" could have easily been photoshopped. The label on the front is also suspicious, as it looks drastically different from labels that were on other Ronald McDonald tapes. The sides of the sleeve would have been hard to fake, and would explain why we never saw pictures of it. Also there are several fonts that closely resemble the text that was on the end label of the tape, so they could have easily printed it.

After reading inkingboy's last comment, something else became clear to me. He has to be in college, which makes his immature behavior all the more laughable. He began posting around early June which is the time summer really starts for most college students, as meeting with an advisor, and other arrangements keep them busy for a couple weeks.

The majority of colleges start back this coming week, and Inkingboy's last comment of "I'm done, and not coming back," make me think he's probably going back to school soon. That would explain the abrupt leave, as this was probably always intended to be a summer activity for him.

Another thing that makes me believe they're in college is the alleged memory they had of getting the tape at McDonald's. Again, I doubt that they have this tape, but at the same time if they're old enough to remember when McDonald's sold the Ronald McDonald VHS's then they have to be in their late teens or early twenties.

This was a poorly done troll that didn't accomplish anything. It was clear they had no plan in motion, and those last comments were an abrupt exit that made it clear.

Now THIS is a successful troll on something that was far more interesting and valuable than a crummy McDonald's tape http://forum.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?71891-Bio-Force-Ape They had a plan, and ultimately shed light on a (at the time) lost video game.

I imagine there will be another person claiming to have the tape soon, on here or 4Chan. We'll get some more fake pictures and information, and in the end nothing will happen.

You'd all be a lot happier if you let this one go.
