Adam the woo is back!

I agree. If you trespass and video into backstage areas or non-guest areas then post them on YouTube for everyone to see, you are bragging about breaking rules and just asking for trouble.

It didn't help him that he was there this morning and pushed his way up to the front of the crowd for the filming of Jimmy Kimmel then started yelling. Just attracted attention to himself to Security who recognized him and took action. Dumb move on his part.
Yeah, that was kind of silly on his part. But regardless, I don't think he deserved being banned for doing so little, and after so much time.

Right is right, wrong is wrong.

He knew perfectly well what he was doing was wrong but he was driven by fame and fortune on YouTube.
You're missing the point. We all do things that we know are wrong, and often get punished. However, he already did and he learned from his past mistakes.

So maybe we should drain all of our prisons as well because all of those people have served their time?

No.

Other vloggers followed Adams example and are doing the same now. So Universal doing this kind of sends a message that it's not going to be tolerated.

I'm sorry but read my post above about how people learn from mistakes. Before criticizing someone for living in a bubble, step out of your own bubble and view things at a different perspective. Trust me, it works!

I'm not the one who moved to california because he got banned from a local theme park... or lived with is parents because he played youtube guy.

You tried to paint him as innocent and unaware of what his videos were and how they'd be received. That's total revisionist crap. The stuff he was doing at the time when it caught up to him he knew exactly how his videos were being viewed, and how he had moved onto creating an identity for himself online.

Let's recap...
When Adam posted his older videos, he really didn't think they'd get popular. When he was banned, he was too shocked to understand why it was his fault.
He was full on in youtube identity when he was still doing things.. and Disney had enough and tresspassed him. Yes, now Universal is banning him for his PAST activities... not current.. but fully was aware of what he was doing and he chose his 'role' instead of following the rules. And not once.. not out of curiosity... but as part of his schtick.

You're missing the point. We all do things that we know are wrong, and often get punished. However, he already did and he learned from his past mistakes.

The phrase is... "its time to pay the piper..". Did he take those old videos down? I'm pretty sure he's still using that past to stand on.

Maybe he didn't realize that urinating on walls, going into private areas or being an utter nusense (like in the opening in his old vlogs) was wrong either? Perhaps we are supposed to take putty on him since he's a "nice guy" now? ;)

I guess Bill Cosby, Bill O'Reilly and Old 45 should be forgiven for their past accusations as well?

The guy has got talent.. and actually I like his content... I just can't handle the 'I'm going to take 15mins to tell you 30seconds of information' so I can't stomach to actually watch his videos with any regularity. (but I don't channel surf on youtube anyways..) But all the revisionist or 'woe is me' or 'I had no idea' defenses are complete garbage.

You nailed it there. I don't like that either. But he's always seemed kind of a creeper to me. Like filming places where famous crimes have happened or creepy things. Then he sets up the camera and puts himself in exactly the spot where those things happened? That's a bit off.

He broke the rules and was never caught by Universal. He may have learned but didn't have to face consequences from the original crime of trespassing.

If he really learned his lesson he will take this ban and accept it as the consequences of his actions. He won't be making videos whining about it. Time will tell.

We didn't really get to see what he did. I wonder if he actually did something today that warranted a ban, or if they really banned him based on things he did years ago. Or both? And who is in charge of approving such measures?

He brings free publicity to the parks, and 287,000 subscribers is no small number. With his Universal ban, he'll just have to spend more time at their competitors' parks and resorts. I'm sure Universal loves the thought of that.

Which is why I imagine his ban will be rectified. If it isn't, that's Universal's loss, IMO.

There was another person who posted a confessions of a former Disney CM video on YouTube (cannot think of his name). But he was fired for something (earring, I think?), then trespassed on property at DHS for some banquet that he was not allowed to attend, snuck food that wasn't his, and even admitted on an online video to stealing a showtime sign for the Indy Stunt Show.
That man was SWOOZIE

He has been doing exactly that (not whining). He freaked out about Disney World and rightfully so, although he could've handled it better. I understand that the opinion on here is that he shouldn't have went backstage and I agree. However, badmouthing him and promoting hatred does nothing.

No it was just for the Dinosaur Animatronic video.
