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.

            A few months ago pictures of Flake dressed as a priest appeared on social media, people thought it was from the filming of the Zeig Dich music video. Turns out it was just this movie.

                I'm currently reading Der Tastenficker. It's an excellent read, especially for those interested in life in former East Germany. And it turns out not to be an Ostalgie-book after all (despite what I thought, and mainly the reason why I was reluctant to read it). It's positive and negative about the former society, and it seems more up to us whether we would've liked it or not. I think it worked fine for him, but he detects reasons why it didn't work in general.

                For those who are mainly interested in Rammstein, I would recommend Heute hat die Welt Geburtstag instead.

                    There are people on the internet claiming that Flake didn't play the piano live for MHB during the 2013. Does anyone know why people think that? I think de did play it live because:
                    • He says so in his book, and stresses out it took him lots of practice before the tour. Ok, he might be lying, but why? He talks about many other audioplays he uses during live shows to make things doable, so why would he be concealing this?
                    • If you go to youtube and watch the ending of the performance in Werchter festival, Hurricane festival and Lisbon 2013, you clearly hear differences in the final tunes he plays.
                      And related to that: on the Hurricane festival they really zoom in at him pressing the keys. If it would be audioplay, in order to create differences in the ending (which we could clearly see and hear in the 3 videos, without any doubt), the piano should be switched off and only at the ending, someone backstage should switch it on at the right half second before he does the small outro. Or he plays a version everyday a few hours before the show, and remembers how he did it, but the two options seem very far-fetched. Especially at a festival tour (where and when on the road would he record it? And why again not mentioning that episode in the book?)

                      Yes, Flake played the piano version of «Mein Herz Brennt» live. The reasons you list are all true. Especially the proshot from the Hurricane festival, where he screws up the ending.

                      Although the «piano» was just a keyboard with some wood-casing around it. However there were a few performances with a real piano like in Berlin or the Hurricane festival.

                        ^Thx for confirming.

                        I actually noticed it, because I remember him screwing it up a bit at Werchter 2013 as well XD. Or he tries to do some strong, dark Wagner F-Dur at the end or so, I'm not sure. It seems like he tries to do something.
