This forum is for the announcement and discussion of anime conventions, and for the exchanging of rides to, and rooms at, conventions.

BOOyah!

And since it'll probably get deleted, and I'll get banned, here:

Don't expect the AMV community to support this contest. The con is corrupt and for-profit - it's not for the fans, just look around for info on it on any site but this one - it's all the same song. This con and it's AMV contest should just rot away to nothing.

Pathetic, I say. And ban me if you want to, I don't care. The lies and crap that came with this con make me feel ill, and I wish I could get my 43 bucks back.

Rot in hell, fan exploiters. You don't care about the fans, so stop pretending. All ya care about is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Hmmm.. Atlanta...

Well, again, I myself will not support a for profit con's AMV contest since it means someone will try to make money of us even if it seem indirect...

I personally Like AWA and see Kunicon as a run at Atlanta's piece of the Anime Con pie... I sure hope that the community realizes this... I've have a lot of experience in dealing with "for profit Science Fiction cons" in the past and all of them put the $ bill first prior to the fans... I see anime ones no different...

After a chat with <b>DrngdKreationz</b>, I decided to create an LJ Community - http://www.livejournal.com/~boycott_kunicon

Not much on there yet, but please spread the word.
