Time to be bitchy

Postby iq10000 » Mon Jan 27, 2003 1:58 pm

<Rant> All right, I just need to vent a bit here. Chances are the people this post is targetting have never read the formus, never will read the forums, and in fact, are too ignorant to know the forums even exist.
It's high time people got it through their thick skulls just what a direct and indirect download means. Recently, there have been a rash of people who seem unable to grasp this concept. A direct download does NOT link to a website, it links DIRECTLY to a file, hence the name. An indirect download does NOT LINK TO KAZAA OR ANY OTHER P2P PROGRAM, EVER!!! :evil: If you do not have a video up for download on some WEBSITE, there is a special category just for you. Under downloadable you select NO. If you are unable to comprehend such simple concepts, you probably should not be making music videos in the first place. Indeed, you should not even own a computer as you might endanger yourself or others.
</Rant>
Sorry for all of you peeps that know what you're doing. Looking forward to seeing your videos.

AD, your video link doesn't work.

:shock:
I have sinned. I made a video I wanted to make that was music + anime + sync + action + effects/transitions. Oh lordy. :roll:

Question

Postby anneke » Mon Jan 27, 2003 4:08 pm

Are you complaining because you can't get the video, or because they arn't following the system?

As for Indirect videos. I have links to my website for my videos, where people can find out how to get a CD of my work, and thus Indirectly get my videos.

Patience is a virture and Phade in time will have different options other then just No, Indirect and Direct.

"Linkin Ball Z" AMVs referred to in the Scary Stats thread. Could there
be a connection? :D

Wait, AD, us there really a video that links like that? That's just sad. And yeah, I hate it too when people don't seem to understand direct and indirect. I found one video that listed direct and it whent to his webpage where you could find a section that read to please search for his videos on kaaza. -_- for the love of God, if you've got it online link to it right, if you don't, then don't say anything.

Good call :O Maybe your should just have the link in the information section.

otherwise all I gotta say is "Tired of finding video that aren't available for download? Want to download more videos? How would you like to download every video ever created from one single, reliable source?"

Golden Donut :O

btw phade that 1st needs correction :shock:

Yes, yes it is, what's sadder is that more people actually do this than you may think. I find the links to Kazaa or the like equally if not more annoying. I mean, screw off, you're a complete idiot if call that a download link, as there's no guarantee the file is even there when you are on nevermind the other reasons several people would find annoying.

BTW, I do have one question, re: people who can't get this straight shouldn't be making vids, what about people using 2 VCRs and admit to knowing? =P.

Peeps aren't for Easter anymore, there's a peep carnival touring SoCal at the moment, you can spin the wheel of peeps and other fun peep-related activities. (Too bad I'm too old for that sort of thing now. :/)

Nappy's videos are fun to watch. Occasionally when I'm off in class I'll just leave "Everyone's Free to Watch Anime" playing on my computer instead of a screensaver.

Back to the main topic, yeah it's pretty annoying when people do that. Almost as equally annoying is when you do set up a direct link and you specifically say in the description to right-click and save as to download, and people write error reports after they can't download it because they were left-clicking it. Also says something about how many people actually read your descriptions thoroughly.
