FORUM RULES ABOUT WEB-BASED LINKS TO MUSIC AND VIDEO'S

Based on latest discussions on this forum, and studiing copyright laws, it is necessary to state out new forum mandatory rules, effective immediately, so, here we are.

LINKS TO MUSIC & VIDEOS: what is legal/what is not.
NEW RULES in the forum state:

From now on in our forum users shal NOT POST TOPICS THAT containin the following :
• Requests for or links to MP3s, music videos, or other files of questionable legality
• Bootlegs

So, please do not POST A LINK TO music or videos which does not directly originate from an officially legal site.

An OFFICIALLY LEGAL SITE is: rammstein.com or rammstein.de, universal music, a legitimate music site like MTV or VIVA. The links must be direct and linked only to the approved site. Any links which have copied and transferred the music or videos from an official legal site to ANYWHERE else are NOT OFFICIAL.

• Do not ASK FOR A LINK to music or videos. If there is a legal site for either listening or viewing, xTERNAL will provide the information in the NEWS section of www.RAMMSTEIN-EUROPE.com.

WHAT YOU CAN DO in the forums: You can DISCUSS a new song or a new video.

WHAT YOU CANNOT DO in the forums: provide illegal links or ask for links, give directions of any kind as to where something might be found (examples: file-sharing, other fansites, etc.). Screen caps will be allowed (within reason) AFTER a video has been made available through an OFFICIAL LEGAL LINK. Fan remixes of songs will be allowed (within reason) after the song has been officially released.

The above restrictions are necessary not because we are being “damn babies” or “. The reason is simply that RAMMSTEIN-EUROPE has made the decision to not be a facilitator of illegal activities involving copyrighted material. The reason for that is also clear. Rammstein’s Management has shown aggressive behaviour in combating copyright infringement.

Anyone who violates the spirit of the aforementioned expansion/explanation of what the RULES mean here as applied to music and videos (and this also includes the "making of videos") will meet up with one of the following consequences:

POST BLOCKED, LINK ERASED AND WORSE.... BANNED IF NECESSARY.

If you have ANY questions about what may or may not be acceptable here, you can always PM a Moderator and ask first before posting something that might get you in trouble here.

•any links to www.youtube.com (or other sharing sites of a similar nature)are generally not allowed.
While some videos like fan made items or spoof animations are allowed, we do not allow linking to youtube. Oftentimes there is/are illegal videos of Rammstein performances to the side of the linked videos. Actual Rammstein Videos which are very illegal to be hosted by that site - therefore we cannot allow links to youtube to be allowed.

So, links to youtube are now allowed - ONLY IF it is a fanmade video by you, and does not contain bootleg footage or footage of live performances or released performances. Stills from photos found on the net are OK. A montage is OK. Clips of released footage are NOT OK.

Please try to understand that sometimes while we may allow a certain individuals fanmade videos, and deny another persons it is usually because the content in it could get the forums in trouble.

Also if some individuals post their fanmade video and it turns out to be bootleg footage that they filmed themselves at a concert and consider that "fanmade" - then we will have to reverse the ruling on allowing fanmade videos PERIOD!

Here is an update on what is considered "fanmade".
Fanmade is fanmade. You did it yourself. Like cut and paste. You creatd everything yourself. No footage filmed by someone else no clips. Still images are OK.
For example:
If you go out and find 6 banana slugs in the yard, dress them up in LAB outfits, and put the skinniest one in a paper boat and play the music to SEEMANN on a kazoo. That is fanmade.

If you have a coverband and you do your own video or you have footage of YOUR band's performance. That is fanmade.

If you have images that you sketched of how you think the video for a song should have been and you put it to music - I think we can allow that.

Use your creativity.

IF YOU SEE VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, REPORT IT BY USING THE EXCLAMATION MARK IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF RELEVANT POST.

    Really? If that is true, I would be quite suprised. The New York/Montreal DVD was originally directed by Matthew Amos (He accidently posted the "Waidmanns Heil" performance on his Vimeo channel in May 2012). In my opinion, Amos is one of the best concert movie directors in the business. He directed the legendary 2002 Slipknot DVD "Disasterpieces". As far as "direct to DVD" or "non-theatrical relased" concert movies go, this is one of the absolute best in my opinion. Amos gave all members of the band, except vocalist Corey Taylor, tiny cameras strapped to their masks/instruments. In that way we got some impressive point-of-view shots. The DVD was also filmed with 26 cameras, which gave it a huge amount of perspective. The only major criticism this DVD recieved, was that the POV-shots sometimes were a little useless since the bandmembers headbang probably around 95% of their performance.

    I would like you to watch a performance of that DVD, and tell me what you think of Amos´s style. Here is a clip (the video is from the band´s record label, so it ought to be legal).

    I noticed Amos´s involvment in the New York DVD very quickly, once I saw all the cameras around Schneider´s drumset in the "Waidmanns Heil" video. That being said, I don´t really get how Rammstein could get dissapointed by the work of Amos. On the other hand I have had my doubts sourrunding the production of that DVD. I mean they filmed the Montreal concert very well, however after carefully watching fanfootage of the MSG concert, I never noticed more than two cameramen filming. In that sense this "New York" DVD would consist 95% of Montreal footage. Yet the audio is supposed to be from New York. So that would mean the performance would look "out of sync" at times.

      I was trying to have a nice talk, but reading it now, maybe some parts of my answers sounded a little harsh (besides the one you told me about), but I didn't notice it before. In the worst days I didn't post at all. My apologies to all, did not want to create a bad environment . Next time I'll only post news.
      You didn't, and don't stop posting. If we can't have some "off-time" in here, where can we. So be harsh on occasions , most of the times you're not. Here is a little hug to make you feel better

          I mean I don't know what happened with the MSG/ Montreal DVD. I haven't read anything about the reasons for the delay.

          And then I began to talk about the rumours about the reasons for the delay of the movie

                Not the first time he is mentioned here but not with so many details... you always give a lot of good information.

                  Today Loudwire has posted this RZK interview again, it was given in November. No plans for album or tour. I wonder if something has changed.

                    ^Nothing new, I don't recall hearing him talk about anything but meeting in the Fall and releasing DVDs. The rumours about albums and tours have always been launched by fan-sites and journalists.

                      Metal Hammer picked up the same interview: http://metalhammer.teamrock.com/news...ision-is-right

                      Why so much right now from such an old interview?

                            I just took some time to check out the other Rammstein fansites and forums, and all I can say is WOOOW.........

                            This "new album" referance that Till did during the interview yesterday, has simply exploded on the internet. Seems like a lot of people are taking his words very literal. However, I once again stress to say that what he said on MusikUniverse, is basically almost exactly what he said in interviews this february when I started this thread.

                            The big question again for me is, when where these interviews made? Why would Flake just talk some stuff about a new tour, and then we find out a few weeks later they work on an album instead? As of now, each member seems to have totally different things to say about the band's future plans. I am looking forward to when Richard is having his new Emigrate interviews again. Then this is all going to become an even bigger mess .

                            I guess we just have to take a rest for a while, and really wait for their September meeting.

                              I don't think we can be surprised by the fact that it exploded on the internet, since it is was many fans want to ear.

                              As far as Aff is concerned, we took special care in not giving too much emphasis on the "new album" and more on "returning in 2017". It still gives fans hope without taking Till's words too literally.
                              "Which is better, eternal happiness or a ham sandwich? It would appear that eternal happiness is better, but this is really not so! After all, nothing is better than eternal happiness, and a ham sandwich is certainly better than nothing. Therefore a ham sandwich is better than eternal happiness."

                                That is certainly the best thing to do. I know that many sites have already said a new album is "confirmed", but it's good to see that Affenknecht shows some restrain. There is a big differance between what we want, and what is likely .

                                Be it tour or album, a band like Rammstein should show some sign of life after 4 years of hiatus. I think Till just for once wanted to adress that they are at least getting something done by 2017.
