CALLING OUT ZANE SAVAGE

I am sick of this: http://www.youtube.com/user/ZaneVlog

You send requests to EVERYBODY you can get the email of, and it is pathetic. Look at some of his videos. He doesn't even know half the people he sends to.

EXAMPLES: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLnDoaHAE7Y

Please, can we send him messages urging him to stop? I want to make sure he is exposed. He brags about his autographs, therefore, he should be exposed. He does not care about political autographs, and now he is just sending them out in masses. He gets approx. 10 a day. It is ridiculous!

Irritates me to no end that he didn't know who Kitten Natividad was and yet he got her autograph.

Wow, this is ridiculous... He can't even pronounce the names of half of the people he gets replies from. I'm a little sick after watching these! He's one of those people that give autograph collecting a bad name.

What is the point of sending to people you're not a fan of? It won't mean anything. I hate his attitude. He doesn't even care who they are. They were free so he took advantage of them. It's taking advantage of people's kindess and generosity. I couldn't even watch the entire video.

I guess thats called hardcore collecting! A guy like that is what makes our hobby difficult! Did you notice he just kinda toses his autographs aside? When i get a response i like to just hold it for a little while and admire it.

Not only that, but he posts a video response like this almost every day. Meaning he is getting HUNDREDS of autos a month.

Can we please message him and tell him to stop? I am almost sure he is on these boards, as he sends requests to people who are discussed often here.

Why this guy? There's been a bunch of people here who are basically the same, and no one ever seems to call them out.

It's time to start calling them out. He posts that garbage online for every twit to see, then all of a sudden the person gets 100 email requests; then BOOM.......no more email autographs and in some cases no more signing.

I despise the idiots who think quantity is better than quality. If I have only 5 autographs of stars i REALLY enjoy; or 500 of random known signers who i don't really know much about nor care for their work; I am in this for the wrong reasons.

Unfortunately Twiter, Facebook, and Youtube has exposed TTM to the wrong kind of people (like the bufoon who posts "Free Autographz, it's dosen't cost a d@mn thing. Just mail to dem and get a free graph". The more exposure, the more bad apples. If a celeb who is known to sign already feels they spend enough time on TTM, then they start getting hundreds of emails and hundreds of snail mail letters, it's over.

There needs to be a more concentrated effort to "cull" the heard. If this site became a paying membership site it would thin the herd drasticaly, sadly if it were even just $5 the so called 'fans" would just leave instead of pay the fee.

I agree with the above post, except for the paid membership. This hobby is already SO EXPENSIVE, especially for us non americans. Myself, a lot of the under 18s and I imagine quite a few others simply cannot afford it.
