#1 Don't be a D-bag.
#2 Make it cause you wanna.

But then there's awesomecore, for which the rule is "Make it cause you wanna be a D-bag"

1.Rant on random popular ppl's videos on announcement forums with no regards to what you actually think
2.Disagree with them on everything in all other topics as well
3.Receive badge of so called honor, people then respect you for some reason
4.???
5.Profit

Or you could just be true to yourself, in most cases that is in fact honor.

Fix'd, this is more how the .org operates.

Ya, guess it works in reverse sometimes too but thats more of a gamble. In most cases that outcasts you.

Those who know me, and alot who have met me, know I have a high code of honor when it comes to AMVs.

1. I will not use downloaded footage from a commerically released anime, nor tolerate those who do this. (Is it so hard to atleast rent the anime from Netflix, etc... Leaving the DIVX logo on the video, can tempt me to boo the video rather publically.)

2. I will not use music that I don't own/paid for in some way. Itunes are acceptable as you pay for them.

3. I will not send a video to a small convention/contests that I'm not attending, without first checking/getting permission from the contest coordinator.

4. I will make all attempts to submit videos to smaller contests first, then big contests. If a video wins at a big contest, I will avoid sending it to a smaller contest. (Because it's just not fair, and simply trolling).

5. No matter how awsome my video is, I WILL NOT troll my video.

6. I will not bully my way into an AMV contest. (Sadly I still remember a contest where I watched two creators do this, and it disgusts me to this day).

7. Defend Yaoi AMV creators and their right to make Yaoi AMVs. Support Yaoi AMV creators whenever possiable.

Always make AMVs for art or enjoyment;
Never steal another's AMVs or ideas;
Be thankful;
Never be aggressive/hostile;
Always be objective;
Always be polite;
Answer every single question you are given;
Be opened for criticism and advices;
Never be conceited, selfish and megalomaniac;
Help everyone with anything you can, never refuse anyone to help;
Never envy another's skills and creativity(I mean bad kind of envy);
Never get angry for unfair criticism;
Rely on your skills, not on your software;
And most important - enjoy making AMVs.

i have never really thought about this :/...maybe a little...like 'never steal AMVs from others' ...
