Subject: Re: I hope this is taken in the proper light

Jim Dandy: I think you have made a very good point. I'd love to discuss some of the videos. Joe Satriani's video is excellent and for the guitarists out there, watching him play so effortlessly is simply amazing. I'm more of an accoustic player and lean more toward country but I love the sounds and style he brings out in his music. Alot of Satriani is technique playing which is very hard to master. But the bulk of his gift lies in his endless imagination in his guitar solos.

Mousetrap: What a shame she hated flying,it really hurt her ability to become the star she should have been in North America

Subject: I hope this is taken in the proper light

The embedding feature is cool,it looks nice and adds color to the board.I hope this doesn't become the board version of MTV though.Slapping down videos with no discussion or time to savour them each individually would be a shame,I personally enjoy the discussion aspect of this board and would hate to see it become merely a video posting option with no chat about the artists or performances.The sheer volume alone could lead it down that path

I'll continue posting links for two reasons 1:I can post multiple or single video performances without scrolling off too many posts.
2: cuz I have no idea how to embed

Again,my only concern with embedding is the risk that this board loses its conversational aspect and basically becomes MTV

jadarite:

I havent done any segregation, Fencer has said that this video option is for rooks only. I suppose his main reason is that he doesnt want multi nics to pop up and post "junk", you can ask him :)

So, when two mods offered to assist you to embed i just asked if that was something only mods could do or if we "normal rooks" could do it too.

So...please post any complaints about segregation to Fencer im sure he'll be happy to answer :)

coan.net & TexasToest:

I'll try commenting to both your comments within the scope of this board being music related.

When I registered, my account had to be approved. So, I could not post music videos in here if I wasn't approved. This is the same as not allowing pawns to post. I have no greater ability as a non-member than I do as a member of the site. In fact, I have less capabilites as a non-member than being a member.

Nice try sugar coating subscriptions, but I am not buying it. Is this a game server or not? I would like to know my money if I subscribe goes to games, not videos.

12. June 2007, 04:36:18

Subject: Re: Thanks everybody!

jadarite: I'm going to duck this one, and refer you to BrainKing.com where your arguments might fall on eyes who can do something about your complaints. This board is for music related chat only. Thanks for helping us keep it that way.

coan.net: Thanks for fielding the comments.

Subject: Re: Thanks everybody!

jadarite: I can give you a good reason if you like.

Lets say there is a "bad" paid member here who does post a bad video - what will happen. The moderator will ban them from posting. Then if that "bad" paid member wanted to continue, they could sign in with fake pawn accounts over and over and continue to post the "bad" stuff... in turn, making the whole board turn into pawn-approve status, which in turn in very bad for pawns.

That is just my opinion of why I think it is good to not give pawns the ability to post videos. Again, just my personal opinion.

Andersp:

This points out the stupidity in segregating the group and limiting features to members only. I understand Fencer wants subscribers, but subscriber limited features should be game related. You can tie a pretty red bow and try to offer me it for my computer, but I don't need a pretty red bow. What I want are game features. If you aren't willing to improve on the game features, I can't complain. However, what do you try to achieve by limiting this Youtube (the red bow) to subscribers only? That is no incentive to subscribe, TRY AGAIN.

Andersp: Rooks can embed all the files they want. So, if a pawn asks you to embed a file for them, you could.

12. June 2007, 03:35:06

Subject: Re: Thanks everybody!

TexasToest: Can we who arent mods embed for pawns too?

12. June 2007, 03:29:28

Subject: Thanks everybody!

jadarite: Isn't that always the way? The people who are supposed to read the legalese don't know the words and they certainly don't understand the intricacies. Shame on YouTube. That ought to be on page one in words kids under 13 can understand. Question: Are you under age 13? Yes? Then, go get your mom or pop, and let them decide if you can be here.

Sorry, the embedding privilege is only available to Rooks, I believe. You can ask one of us to go get the code, and embed it for you if you'd like. Um, yeah. What Eriisa said.

Tigger: Isn't Emmanuel wonderful? It's obvious he gets a huge kick out of playing that geetar. Actually, did you bring him to us earlier, like a couple of weeks ago? Cuz, after I watched that first video, I looked at a few more, and the Classical Gas was one of them. Love the way he plays the short strings, don't you? Hahahaha! He's great anytime. I wonder what kind of strings he uses. They are really bright. Tell us more about Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. I believe I HAD heard his voice before, but didn't know what I was listening to.

Jim Dandy: Very interesting. I'd never seen a set-up like that. Isn't Tom Rush an inspiration? He's so wonderful. An unsung hero in most circles. How well I remember that day in MY life.

Great stuff, everybody. Thanks for the welcome home from a hard, long day at work. Music always makes me feel better, and it's always better when shared.

In the beginning he uses harmonics. He makes the guitar sound like a harp. It's a tricky thing to do. Sweet.

Subject: Re:

TexasToest:

I found the part quoted earlier. You have to go to the TOS page which is linked within links LOL. If I, a 33 year old, is having trouble navigating to that area, I don't think a 8 or 9 old is going to consider reading the TOS or know where it's at.

The language is legally crafted rather vaguely. It's under a header "9. Ability to Accept Terms of Service", which brings the question if children aren't able to accept the terms, are they required to know they aren't able to accept the terms? If you get past that puzzle, you see they mention 18 years, and then say it's not "intended" for people under 13. What the heck does that mean? What happened to the 5 years in between?

They could have easily stated, "children under 13" are not allowed. However, they didn't. Furthermore, they request, "please", that the children go to another site. They don't come straight out and say, "children are not allowed".

TexasToest:

I don't see where it says kids under 13 shouldn't be there. At http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines it says, "Also, be advised that we work closely with law enforcement and we report child exploitation."

So, if they are reporting child exploitation if and when it occurs, that would indicate logically that they allow children to make videos. Otherwise, they wouldn't be making that statement.

11. June 2007, 06:35:49

Subject: Re:

jadarite: Interesting that YouTube lets the videos stay if their rule really is under 13 forbidden.
