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.

        Childish? Well, that's a quite condescending way of putting it. And by the way very uncalled for and weird. I never heard of children deeply analyzing interviews, anticipating upon information received and deriving complex theories out of it like here. Really not sure what the childish aspect is here, but kudos to those highly intellectual children you seem to think of!

        @Snake Well, I wouldn't call Rammstein very lazy when we look at all those other bands with even worse lack of progress and PR. And I can understand they wait to reveal their plans untill the very last moment. You don't want to end up like Metallica or especially Guns N' Roses, being bullied by their own fanbase constantly because they said they would be working on a new album, while unable to present any result after more than a year. And 6 albums in 20 years isn't bad at all. But when quality is as high as with Rammstein, I can see why any waiting is frustrating.

        And actually I like the whole speculating thing. What else is their to do around here? I can't see why we shouldn't investigate and dream a bit ? That's called science! On top of that it DOES make time pass by; it may not progress anything in reality, but it keeps us entertained a while. And it's quite fun and interesting, isn't it ? So, I don't think it's actually obsolete. And as for those I know a bit around here, it never ruined or spoiled anything. Rammstein always amazed me so far, no matter what I thought, hoped or anticipated.

            Oh, it actually didn't take much time. And your post wasn't humble at all, more humbling. Besides, I mainly focussed on the other posts, but I still don't get the hang of that multi quote thing.

                I know it is hard to come up with something interesting to talk about given how slugish the band as become, but I'm pretty sure animosity isn't the best course of action.

                  If that amuses you, you should read some more here, then you'll fall over laughing. But there is really no need for name-calling.

                    I hope they do another tour next year and come back to the US. I missed them when they came to Tacoma back in 2012. I'd love to get the opportunity to see them live and in person. And get my pic taken with Till

                      I've heard that according to ego FM (german radio station) the Süddeutsche Zeitund will have a short piece about Rammstein's 2016 tour out on Monday. Nothing is confirmed, but I'm sure the fans who live in Germany will keep us updated. It would be really nice if they would already mention some festivals, locations, cities or countries they will visit.

                      I know I should maybe write this in the "news" section, but until all this "2016 tour" info is 100% confirmed, I like to continue on this thread.

                          ^Me too. It would pratically turn the rumours into actual (unoficial) news.

                            In "La Heavy" magazine interview (May issue), he stills says the same. They will meet in September, October and decide if they go on tour or back to studio.

                              I also really hope this is true. But if they really do tour in 2016, I am sure they are going to start their "open-air" season by having their first few concerts at the Berlin Wuhlheide in late May as always. Getting ticket's for those shows would be incredible!

                                Till statement is a little contradictory to what Flake allegadly said. According to Flake, the tour was really going to happen.
