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.

    hmm well
    several reasons. i hate people who hate it though :O especially americans (usaians) since they were the ones who gave more than half of our territory to nearby countries since the percent of hungarian population was low because we were attacked by Tartars (google translate D: ) and was through a world war so we had to invite people from nearby countries not to get attacked again for being in a weak state

            Yes it's intentional. In other forum, there's somebody with scratches on the box (between others), after a week Universal had answered and one of the things said is that the scratches will be dissimulated when it´ll begin to oxidise, and each box will be unique.

              • Was there a reason why my post asking if there was subtitles in the MIG DVDs has disappeared other than something being seriously wrong with this forums servers/technical shit? Does anybody else have problems with flaws here?

                • ^That might be have been a mistake on my part. I am constantly forced to delete spam threads on a daily basis in this place. I might have mistaken yours for spam, specially if it was created in the middle of such other threads.

                  Since that is the most likely cause, I apologize for that. Please create the thread again.

                  • I remember that one, but it was old. Maybe it was one of the created during the last big chaos, when we couldn't view our own posts.

                    • Snake it wasn't a thread, it was a post in a thread.

                      • It isn't lost. It's here, between the chaos it survived...

                            Yeah I know, it was the first thing I did

                            It happens with most of the posts of those days, others disappeared and when somebody posted in their thread after the issue was solved they reappeared, others had been rescued by Snake... And it was weird because you posted something and you could see the thread and your name in the main page but you couldn't see the post in the thread.

                            Weird, weird, weird...

                            • You also can't start polls I just realized..
                              Is this forums free? I'd be seeing ads all over if it was but everything else from the weird errors to the lack of options makes me think it's free.
                              I wouldn't mind contributing if that was the case, I'm excited about finding an active Rammstein forum with some hardcore fans who frequent it even if they weren't many.

                                Hi and good morning to you!
                                Yes this is free and definatly we are hardcore fans here who usually visit everyday at some point, it will be good to see you here regularly. So many start here add a few posts and then dissappear.
                                The saying is "You dont know what you have got till its gone" the truth is "You know what you had, you just did not know you would lose it" !!
