This is a waste of time for new people.

Post by Khameleon808 » Mon Dec 09, 2002 2:34 pm

Now maybe i was expecting more , but i thought when i posted my videos that hundreds of people would be downloading them , every vid i ever posted in here only like 30 or 40 people have downloaded that , but yet on the same list i can see a stupid ass video where the link doesnt even work have more hits than mine, I PAID for hosting for a reason, for you guys to see my video , i didnt give a shit about the cost or the website i was supposed to make. the important thing was to get my videos out there to you at home. Not to mention i have to twist peoples arms in here to get an opinion . when someone well known in here comes out with a vid , everone is like OH SHIT, WE GOTTA GO DOWNLOAD THAT SHIT. making it kinda onesided for people that are still trying to build a reputation, now, i dont care what anyone thinks of my vids, it was just some shit i did to waste some time, and what a waste of time it turned out to be since i can only get friends of mine to sit and watch these videos. i think opinions should be manditory , people wanna know what direction to move in , and what mistakes they need to correct, and they dont need to waste the time finding one person to trade opinions with , it should be a from a good range of vid developers . I can almost BET that i am gonna get flamed for this post , but obviously i dont give a shit . this has been bothering for about a week and a half. and other people have complained about it too, just not posted it.

I am more than willing to make vids for this room , but i would feel better if someone else's eyes saw them instead of mine

If you make good videos, you will get a reputation as well, and people will download your vids.
Also if you post around in the forums, hand out in the AIM chat, then people will get to know you. When people know you, they are much more likely to want to check out your videos than they are the videos of some random guy.

If I am correct, the point of this site is a catalog for anime music videos. The fact it became a hub seems to be more of a perk..at least that is what I got from when I was here last December and it was sort of a whole different feel.

If you want a lot of people to see your videos, why don't you enter some of the various contests and conventions? Coming up soon is Ohayocon, Sakuracon, Katsucon...and the mindwarp online contest and many others I see listed.

Can you blame people for not downloading every video that comes up? Do you even do that? If you want to build up a reputation HERE (the realm of amv fans do not all meet here) then make some friends here. In all actuality, this place really doesn't matter when it comes to getting your video well known unless you write guides or something (j/k :wink: )

I'm not flaming you, but to say your videos were just to waste time is not a very good way to encourage people to think yours are well done. Some people may not even try them based only on that kind of comment by the creator.

Don't be discouraged. No amv maker stumbled into popularity on their way to the forum.

elitist?

Post by Khameleon808 » Mon Dec 09, 2002 2:57 pm

is it just me or do the 'TOP' dogs of this site and the high end vid developers (not all mind you) there are some really nice people out there.
but it seems like most of them are elitist bastards that assume sell all their possessions then help you out??? well not to bust your bubble or anything but you will have to deal with that in every field . its just a pain in the ass trying to make good things witout some dickhole telling us how cool they are and how and where the noobs need to make their posts, i will post in the most popular forum no matter what the topic is, cause i want my posts viewed, i dont wanna wait 4 days for someone to be like " i might respond to this noob" .

or maybe none of you know what i am talking about , or maybe think that i am out line for expressing my opinions in this manner. I am just beginning to doubt why i make these vids if they are just gonna get ignored by most of the users on here

Wrong impression

Post by Khameleon808 » Mon Dec 09, 2002 3:00 pm

WELL maybe i had the wrong impression ,
no one even bothered to tip me to the fact that there was a chat room, i have asked repeatedly if there was one

no is the only answer i was givin , if someone can direct me to the AIM chat room by giving me a room name or something , i can go there and not waste anymore of your time on these forums . i am not tryin to step on toes here, i just want to be heard and my work to be seen .

How many opinions have you given? :? Like I always say, if you wanna get opinions, you have to be willing to give some. It's as simple as that.

opinions

Post by Khameleon808 » Mon Dec 09, 2002 3:08 pm

i would love to give opinions , but it seems like all the damn links are broken for the videos that iwanna check out ,
andi have submitted about 15 opinions for 15 seperate videos that i have been lucky enough to download


by the way , dont get the wrong impression buddy, i didnt come to talk shit i came to voice my opinion , which may sound like the exact same thing to most people but as you can see i am not overtly hostile toward anyone in particular , just the general consensus of users who think they are too good to check out new peoples work , and they know who they are.

do you have to be a member of AOL to join Aol chat rooms? if so , why not make a chat medium on a service that is free for everyone to axx

You know have no right to complain about not getting opinions. If you can't find the time to critique someone's work, why should they do the same for you? :?
