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.

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."

              Unboxing the new RAMMSTEIN Made in Germany Best of Album (limited super deluxe edition)

              Comment


              • When I think of it, as a whole this Made in Germany thing would be a perfect end for Rammstein. It's not that I wouldn't like them to continue or anything, but if a band retires, this is how they should do it. The album name (born in 1995 - died in 2011), the album cover with the death masks, the death march in Berlin... There could not be more classy and stylish way for a band to retire. And I think it's kind of sad that Rammstein has already made clear that they have no plans to retire, because it makes all this "death" fuzz kind of worthless.

                It would have been best to make the death album, finish the tour, say NOTHING about the retirement, take the 1-2 year break (which they are prorably taking anyway) and let the fans decide on their minds whether Rammstein is retired or not, then return with some kind of "back from dead" show. Now, in the other hand it's great to know that they have plans to continue (at the moment at least, we'll see after the break) but in the other hand it kills all the interesting mystery and uncertainty around the band and the latest album.

                Obviously the meaning of the death match and everything is just to mess with fans heads and make fun of other bands and their best of albums before they retire. It would have been great, but the "we will take the US tour, take a break and then be back in the studio" -interview kind of ruin it.

                    Great point, I like that "back from the dead" scenario that you imagined. I would prefer to see Rammstein as a touring band playing their best songs (never producing new full albuns again), then to see them going back to studio, producing a mediocre album as good or worse than LIFAD, and then going on tour to promote that album (which would imply a setlist with a lot of mediocre songs from said album).

                    Of course that, if by miracle they are able to finally create a new true great album in the future, none of the things I just said would apply.

                      "if by miracle".... if you think they did, why not doing it again?

                              • There are great differences, for us is cheaper to buy the Super deluxe edition in other countries than in some stores here, the one that has it for 100€ has it sold out and it's not going to recibe more.
