No "Colbert," "TCR," "Stephen," no guest names, perhaps a couple of segment names such as "Better Know a District" - tags that were basically nonsense words to anyone who wasn't on certain fan sites - and mine were some of the very first to go. Way before other peoples' very obvious clips were gone. Today I was permanently suspended, while hundreds of people with obvious Colbert clips are still posting. There are still thousands up with "Colbert" in the title, description, and tag. I'm finding it very strange, actually. By the way, everyone should realize that Viacom owns the Colbert Nation Web site and its own boards. Of which I am a member. I also probably held the record for fastest posting of clips after the episode - 30-60 minutes. Long before Motherload got their clips up. Maybe I'm just paranoid. FYI.

Four times out of five you can't even view the clips on Motherload. The computer ties itself into knots downloading ComedyCentral's spyware and adware, and either Firefox crashes or the whole dam' computer crashes. I would add to Unreasonable Blog’s list:

It’s almost impossible to find a decent video with those two tags. However, many of the “saved” videos have obscure tags, or simply say “Funny” or “Comedy”. Those videos are much harder to find in the system. You pretty much have to know they are there. Those are the videos that have survived, and the videos that are circulating among fans.
