Has anyone else observed this firsthand?

It's used by people who edit the quotes of others to make the quote more 'appropriate', often for comedic effect.

In this case it was used to cause poo batter.

On a related note, an artist's impression of the hamsters noscoping the servers today.

Saxon is a terrible human being as a result of his taste in music and nothing else. He might give kittens to orphans and have cured cancer but that music hurts my soul.

Speaking of music on youtube...anyone know if it's illegal to upload your own on a vid you recorded?

When voting for the CPM this year i suggest look at the action of the people and what they have been doing over the past year, not what they have posted on the forum in the last week.

On the subject of the recently mentioned forum war post and "dredging" up the past ;-)

Re: the Brit accent, replace 'buddies' with either 'chum' (for the higher classes) or 'mate' for the lower classes and noob, and you've nailed it :-p


LOL WTF how many stealth edits for that one Shotty HAHAHA

Didn't even know they changed it. They did change the amount you can carry, but I didn't realise they changed the amount you can have active. No I haven't noticed anything up with that either way.

Music that you made urself? Dunno why it would be. If you do a cover of a song in the system there is a possibility of it being picked up (if it sounds too similar to the original).

If you are talking about putting some song u downloaded into ur vid then ya it should get auto flagged. The artist out the one in charge of the artist can monitize the views from ur vid. Possibility of a copy right strike and limitation of what u can upload later.

wow cheers Jolly...did not know that. Guess I have to montage from their pre-selections.

To answer your question: this would actually be music I "own" in physical format (e.g. an album on vinyl or CD) - coz I'm ******* old

Oops! I'd misunderstood. Thought "my own music" meant something you wrote and recorded.

No Jolly thought the same...now I read it that is a little ambiguous. "My own music" to me means my CD and vinyl collection... :: old fuddy-duddy Brit accent :: "but in this new fangled modern day and age, I suppose nobody owns anything any more"

Don't think I've ever bought any music via digital download...

@ CPM2

For those following campaigns, who do you guys like? I'm currently leaning toward:

#1 - Cross (Logi)
#2 - Zaria (Logi)
#3 - Pokey (Commando)
#4 - Talos (Assault)
#5 - Demens (Assault)
#6 - Ripley (Assault)
#7 - Delt -or- Dennie (undecided)

1. I really like the idea of Bamm, but I'm concerned about the potential for absenteeism. Do you think my concerns are misplaced?

2. Also, the list above feels pretty MedFrame heavy. Barring Delt and possibly Cross, I don't know that any of these players can speak competently on the subject of Scouts or EWAR interplay/balance as it relates to Scouts. That said, these are all bright individuals who (unlike a few other candidates) I believe are able and willing to be affected by informed feedback from others.

3. And as a final concern, could electing a panel of bright non-Scouts potentially do Scouts undue harm? Assume for the sake of illustration that Aeon, Tesfa and Kirk were all elected to CPM. After months of Scout under-performance, Rattati opines that it's time to either rethink EWAR or buff the Scout class. Aeon, Tesfa and Kirk are confused and outraged. They join in ardent objection and put their heads together in hopes of finding good reasons why not. Ultimately, Rattati is not swayed. Shocker. But pick any three above, assume ill intent, and set their minds upon common goal; is it not possible that Rattati might then be swayed? See Zatara circa December 2014.

Scratch 3. An underdeveloped and probably stupid thought. A panel of clever CPM is superior to the alternative, regardless of what may or may not come.

Heh.

Swap 5 & 7 for Bamm & Aeon.

I can see your concerns with Bamm, but he does have a good vision for the game and can facilitate conversations from wishy/washy rhetoric to consrtuctive talks focused on results (with & without the tinfoil). I agree with many of his views & can see him as an asset to the community & the devs who will be working with the CPM.

Aeon could serve well. Another candidate with a good vision, although the interpersonal skills and self management may be an issue. In a resent podcast he spoke of the steps he is taking to address these issues, which is commendable and should be nurtured. The CPM may be hard hard test for him but, pass or fail, the opportunity to serve the community and himself could be a boon for all. I share many points of view with Aeon.

Spot on with the rest of the list.

I'd find the quote for you, but Arkena gets upset when I look at old posts :-)

Yeah whatever gets uploaded to youtube gets put through a filter to check for copyrighted stuff. If the vid has some in it, it'll usually pop up on a page after the processing i think. It'll let you mute the audio completely in that part. Had that annoying email while at work, only reason I know.

Edit: can always use stuff from soundcloud if you look for fair use stuff. Have to trust that the artist didn't sample someone elsein the song. One reason I don't dig using the dubstepish stuff, those people sample stuff like crazy and "forget" to credit that.

I get upset when you misquote year old posts.
I don't mind you linking them.


Feel free to link it. Hell, go through mine. It looks like I could be running, so I imagine you'll want to do your thing.
