Just kidding.

You are ruthless and cunning with your click bate

Well now that you put it that way...

How could this section be improved?

Better standard is not going to happen.
People mainly just want to check out photos.
Low quality videos piss people off more than a group of average photos they just scroll through.

Actually I think I'll just stick with Just Kidding ;)

Vids here generally piss me off.
If I know they have high production standards like yours they get viewed

Watching a vid is like a long term relationship.
I wuv the wham, bam, thank you ma'am pics.
A 1 sec bad pic is so much better than 30 seconds of a motion sickness bad vid ride.

Meh, I'll give what could be improved here some thought...
short of PBing members for crappy vids

Update:
Posting some stills from the vid or from that shoot might be a good way to entice viewers into watching it.
I want a preview... especially from new members.

OK, I got what I came for. You can lock this thread

Joking aside, sadly most urbex videos just don't cut it. It's a lot easier to take passable photos.

Maybe if people kept their videos to 1 minute?
Crop, chop & mop!

I suggested a UER video comp a few years back that had a great reception, however urbex videos seem to have died off over the last few years (there are some obvious exceptions).

I'm starting to think just kidding IS the way to go.

Show stopper: the vid's rolling and suddenly a scream as the cam goes into a free fall... still recording.
Can't grab drama like that with photos... so begins the sploring gore vid era

Maybe all the best vid's got seized by police...

Unfortunately for many splorers editing just doesn't seem to work because -every last frame is precious- unlike the film industry.

Lastly, click bait should be used, and phrases like 'your satisfaction is guaranteed' and 'breath taking nudity' should be stressed.

I like the way you're selling it.

I'm picturing Hans Gruber falling off the Nakatomi Tower
