:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Welcome to the club!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

When this happened to me, I too was Pissed Off!

I know it hurts, and I suppose it comes with the territory. But after that experience, I've come to think of it as a form of flattery - though that really depends on the intentions and limitations of the person who "ripped you off".

It's like...."This is a really good video, worthy of me using clips from it." I guess you could see it as a form of bootlegging. Of course, amv editing requires us to 'rip' copy written material from DVDs (or VHS/Digisub). So somebody else ripping our edited material of edited material sounds rather redundant.

*Edit* I was in the middle of the AMV of this post and I saw some footage that he definitly ripped from you although the percentage ripped is less then 60% as you originally fought.

I could say he ripped more than 60% of my footage, however, I'm not that mean. In retrospect, he practically ripped the whole thing - notice he used *my* scenes and placed them in almost the exact same places as some of the parts he ripped...

Like I said, he ripped it and the anime he used in his mvid was practically identical to the original (mine).

-___- The point of the matter is that he *ripped* it. That alone should result in a ban... ~__~

Wow... a new club to join! *bounces happily*

I know its flattering in a way, but I'm still pissed about it royally. You'd think that these inept beings would understand something as 'complex' as creative thought... -___- *huggles* Thanks for your comments and support ^^

Note: Gah, that post above... Damn BB code!!! ~__~

First off I liked your vid and I don't really like many mvids.But also be glad that fans like your vids and care so much about them that they tell you when they see your footage in someones else vid.And As SnhKnives so perfectly put it the other Guy can die.

Let me know and thanks for your comments and reply! ^^
your "Middle of the Night" vid was one of my favs

you should take it as a complement. The video and audio were never yours in the first place.

Yeah ..I'd take it as a compliment. You are oh so lucky to have someone think, "OH THIS IS SO GOOD I WILL RIP IT AS IF IT WERE MY OWN AND SHARE AND THEY WILL SAY WOW I'VE SEEN THIS VIDEO BEFORE YOU SUCK VID STEALER"
