Talk:Herobrine

Herobrine stream information! / Video editor needed!
Just to inform watchers/editors of this page, I am currently in talks with Copeland, the person who started the original Herobrine stream that propelled Herobrine into popularity. I'm getting a new wealth of knowledge from my talking, and shall be wikifying it ASAP. Some of this data has already been wikified, which you can currently peruse. I have asked him several questions the wiki likely wants to know. Why, how, who knew, did you expect it to blow up, what happened after etc. etc. He has also put himself forward to do the voice-section of the Herobrine video I've tried to get set up, much like Curse's own videos. This is a great turn of events! We just need a video editor to squash all of this together, so if anyone wants to volunteer, please do message!! --Kizzycocoa 00:57, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Herobrine Pronunciation (Help needed!)
Kizzycocoa, for the American pronunciation, I don't think people pronounce it the "brine" as the "brin" in Sergey Brin. Most people pronounce it as "heerobrine" (brine rhymes with fine). Could you change that please? Thanks --M0rphzone(talk) 02:29, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
 * see, I'm unsure there. Most of my American friends said it as such. Tell me, these friends/you, did you formulate your pronounciation after, or before we put it on the wiki page? Because before, all the American youtubers, my American friends, and even outsiders I had spoke to ho were American generally used that pronunciation, prior to us setting the Swedish/mojang/stream's standard as canonically correct.
 * I shall change it, implying a culture difference, but I will want some form of study done. Such as asking random friends in your countries what they'd say, and making a statement such as "generally, Americans pronounce it like this". --Kizzycocoa 02:37, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I have escalated this to a study, just so we can be sure.
 * I strongly recommend all participants find non-minecrafters, and ask them, so to keep the study free of any existing bias. --Kizzycocoa 02:49, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

 * I have contacted most of my English friends who don't play MC, including my entire family. They all say "bryne". A common reason was because a brine is a salt water thing. Perhaps this is the lead factor? --Kizzycocoa 02:40, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
 * When I first saw that name, the pronunciation I ended up with before reading or knowing anything was herro brin (think of Korean stereotypes with speech and second syllable rhymes with chin).  03:42, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
 * That is the incorrect version, whch we're attempting to trace. Where are you, location wise? Please add yourself to our chart if you can!
 * I myself saw it as bryne. as I first-hand went through the Herobrine process live, I know I saw the image before the stream, thus mine wasn't affected. if anyone thinks it unfair, do a -1 on the UK hiro-bryne count. --Kizzycocoa 22:31, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added myself to the Herro-Brin tally. My brother and I have always pronounced it that way and, while I can't put any names to this, am sure i've heard other use this pronunciation too. --GhostOfRattman 02:55, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
 * This is very likely. all major fansongs use the brin version, which prompted the wiki to find the bryne version as canonical, due to mojang and brocraft use. The question now is, how did users come up with the brin version? Brine is already known to be a salt water compound, but where has brin come from?--Kizzycocoa 03:00, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

- Herobrine Video info-
- Click on URL to see a Video of him. - <Video deleted>
 * This is not going on the page. at all. Herobrine is not real, and that video would severely contrast with this fact. This wiki is ten times the resource than that video.
 * Furthermore, if you want to share your video playlists, do not do so on the wiki. we are a wiki. not a forum. --<font color="blue" style="text-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #00FF00;"><font color="Black">Kizzycocoa 22:26, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

"Current stance on Herobrine" logical fallacy.
A quote was posted under the stated section by the joint developer stating,"We have no plans at all to add herobrine. I doubt this will ever change.", yet the section states that the quote *confirms* Herobrine will never see an official release. That should be changed so as not to draw conclusions and prevent bias. 184.57.161.27 08:17, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I do not see how this is a logical fallacy. herobrine is not in minecraft, and will never see an official release. this is true. He does, however, have a mod release. --<font color="blue" style="text-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #00FF00;"><font color="Black">Kizzycocoa 21:46, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I believe you miss the point. The support this article gives for Herobrine never seeing an official release only says they "doubt" they will change their minds on the topic of Herobrine, yet they've repeatedly changed their minds in the past. One cannot base a factual statement on a doubt expressed by the developers. Therefore, I suggest one changes the section to say something along the lines of, "This confirms that at this point, the developers have no intention of adding Herobrine," instead of using the word "never" for something that cannot be proven as fact. 184.57.161.27 03:17, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Original troll video
Has anyone recorded the troll video of Herobrine that was on Brocast? If so plz upload to Youtube and give me the Url on my user talk page thank you! Megatron James 21:31, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I have gone to nearly everyone involvedin that stream in a hunt for this video. I have had no success. But if someone does have a recording, the wiki would very much like to obtain it. --<font color="blue" style="text-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #00FF00;"><font color="Black">Kizzycocoa 21:46, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
