Aight, time to get some ops for this

For some reason, few people seemed particularly interested in this video and I'm baffled as to why. Why no love? I've gotten absolutely zero legit critiques or comments on this since I released it. People can blame it on me if they want for that whole cross/fade thing, but frankly that's just idiotic. This video was getting swept under the rug long before I started that up. If anyone intentionally withheld their opinions of this video because they didn't approve of my attention grabbing than that just proves that they wouldn't have even watched this video otherwise and confirms my suspicions.

I'm starting to see why my fellow DZers don't have a high opinion of this place. However, I don't want to alienate everyone either so I want to apologize to anyone who was offended. I'm not mad at anyone. I'm just upset because I have absolutely no empirical evidence that could help me understand the void of feedback I'm getting for this video. All I want to know is why. So please everyone, do me a favor and give me some real opinions that can point to what (if anything) I did wrong that would result in me actually needing to go to this board for some legit critiques like some rookie 12 year-old who just discovered WMM.

did you by any chance post this in the announcement thread? s'good way to get quick feedback. also uploading a local and enabling the preview might help get more exposure as well and would allow quick comments.

i'll op this. either of the two in my sig for it.

I'm still planning on watching this, so I'll swap you ops if this thread is still running by the time I get to it.

It already is, but I see no reason for people not to use the direct download.

If it's on LOCAL, then people have to grab it from there before they can op it at all.

Well, that explains the lack of ops but not the general lack of feedback whatsoever, even in the announcement thread.

I don't have an amv currently, so can i save that opinion of yours on a vid for later?

irrelevantly of your answer I will still just give it an opinion now, because I'm bored right now anyway.

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize you'd posted here. I had forgotten about this thread and thought that was just a random op.

Op'd.
