Mystery of the website

I have noticed a tendency in the video section of Disclose to break up videos into multiple parts strung over many many pages.

Now, I can understand one's misdirected zeal to drive up the posting numbers, but I must say there are a couple of things that defeat the purpose of the site:

If it is a topic or subject that others do not find particularly worthwhile or of their interest, trust me, it won't be watched or voted -- even by accident.

If it is not worthwhile then scanning pages to get past all of the "parts" is a PIA.

Also, you run the risk of upload errors exponentially every time you do this -- i.e., Coast-to-Coast interview with John Rhodes poster -- there are two 9 of 11 parts and no 10 of 11.

Having myself been in contact with Mr. Rhodes in previous years, I was interested to see if he had anything new to say.

There are also some segmented videos which run into multiple dozens of parts.

"......let me see, was I on part #36 or part #37?...."

There are posted videos which are in excess of 10 minutes here, so time restricted or size restricted uploads are not the problem.

Just pointing it out, hope some see the value of a completely intact video for both continuity and sanity sake.

After all, if one's attention span ls shorter than 11 minutes, I would suggest maybe commercial television -- they love segments under 10 minutes.

Thanks in advance and hope someone can enlighten me as to the mysterious nature of this particular anomaly. :peep:

I think it has to do with two things.

Upload size limits, and when thats not the case here....comes from those who have grabbed the parts from places that DO have the limits, and hence many broken parts at that source.

When i see something broken up..
i just Utube it to see if its on there, and it has been for the most part..

i think.
