Well, all I really care about is letting in Avatar the Last Airbender and other things that are so close to Japanese Animation that without knowing which channel/company they originally aired on, you'd swear it was anime.

Kind of like "I can't Believe It's Not Anime!"

Most of the kiddies on Gaiaonline and Youtube call Avatar: The Last Airbender anime O.o but they are kiddies...

I need to clarify my position. I do not think Avatar or Teen Titans fall into the serious debate category. I'm speaking more to people who seriously describe themselves as mangaka.

The rules are fine, there are always other places to upload and host anyway for other animation sources + blog etc for getting the word out. Besides we've had these rules for a very long time, they mines well be commandments.

Slightly off topic (sorry, if you don't want it discussed just remove it):

An easy work around for everyone would be a "Derivative Works" thread or something along those lines where editors can showcase other works they've done that aren't for the rules. Arashi already suggested this but I don't think it should be limited to live-action. It's not like it would hurt the site any since they won't have to be cataloged or anything. Might need a dedicated mod who can watch the thread more closely and a sticky at the top with general posting rules that could be debated on but nothing serious since it's pretty much just another announcement thread. I just don't see a reason for it to be exclusive to the donator thread.

Or if you really want to keep it simple with benefits allow donators to create threads in the "Derivative Works" thread only but allow nondonators to view them. It would be great if they could comment if that is possible just not create threads though even if they can't comment they could PM or some other alternative if they are that inclined to let them know about their thoughts. An initiative way to gain donations at the very least.

The links in the thread would have to either be direct download or an approved free hosting site list on the sticky probably. Threads could go through an approval process by the dedicated moderator for that thread before they are public if you want to be extra careful.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

I vaguely remember someone telling me a few years ago that certain sections of The Animatrix were not considered anime by the site's definition (specifically The Final Flight of the Osiris and whatever Peter Chung's bit was called), so they're only legal to list if used in combination with other sources (usually other Animatrix segments).

Is this correct?
