Hi, I'm l33tmeatwad and I joke a lot.??seasons wrote:Because I don't know you and can't tell if you're joking or not.
When did I say you had to make friends who are CURRENTLY active on the org? My friends and studio mates were not super active on the org when I first met them and now they are very active. The key is to become friends with those that you click with and just have a good time!seasons wrote:There's no way to make friends with any of the people here who are stuck in their cliques.

That's an idea in your head, make a video like PencilHead, Fate Matrix, or Lip Bomb and it won't be ignored (and before you say "well those are all popular editors", keep in mind no one knew who Shin-AMV & GuntherAMVs were before that year)? If you're really concerned about being popular or having popular videos then evaluate your audience, target your videos towards them, and then market you video by getting it out to conventions (etc)? I'm tired of people saying the org doesn't pay attention to good videos, there are too many posted to watch them all and everyone thinks we all have time to watch them all and take special note of "generic drama video A" or "random action mix B" and call it the most epic thing ever when it's not. I myself have made videos not many people liked and also ones that a lot of people liked, but I don't blame them for not liking a video I made for myself that I personally enjoy. I also don't make excuses that they just don't "get it," because the truth is if they don't get it then I wasn't doing my job at conveying the message of the video.seasons wrote:People will ignore any new video, even if it's "amazingly epic,"* if it's not made by someone who's established here. Besides, the idea that you're not deserving of anyone's attention here unless you put in hundreds of hours on something professional-looking is laughably elitist, like you have to make a masterpiece before you're even deserving of being acknowledged with a quick comment that takes 5 seconds to write, let alone an actual opinion from someone.
Or did we trash the idea of the Org as a nurturing ground/valuable resource for new editors and I never got the memo?
* The idea that everything needs to be "amazingly epic" is one of the biggest problems with this hobby in 2013.
