- I know I'm being greedy, but perhaps avatar increased to 200kb?
- I support Live-Action idea; support general concept of exclusive/hidden content.
I support the idea of Light-novels, but only the highest quality and only novels they can't be officially bought in English.
Feature so you can choose to notify someone that they've been mentioned by name-- not saying every time you type their name it will happen - it's a choice--, and they'll get a PM or something; like the Facebook feature. It'd potentially help with get users more involved, especially if their input is specifically requested.
I know this may just be me, but some form of restriction or requirement to make Requests? I know it's our choice to help them, but it does irk me seeing people (leechers) registering on here, just to have us find them what they want and then they pop off.
Again, this is just me, but maybe an auto-deletion of inactive accounts under a specifc post count, with a one-week email notification warning to log back in?-

Why is Brazil invading my spare time?
First I see a post on Imgur about something Brazilian woman stealing someone else's artwork from Deviantart, printing it on shirts and selling them, and then I have another Brazllian girl message me asking to be penpals, and then finally another Brazilian woman checks out my profile. It's a tease. I want to go to Brazil.Anyway, now that that rant is over, welcome. </3

Hi.
- How did I find Kametsu?
- What do I think of the place so far?
- What are my top 5 anime?
- What are my top 5 video games?
- What are others hobbies do I have?
- Make any graphics?
- Do you have any questions for us?
- I believe I just found it through Google; don't quote me.
- Overall, I like it. It's not as active as I thought it would be, but the quality of the interactions I've had with other members so far is more than enough.
- I'll be pretty active; I hope that down the line, I can contribute with my own encodes.
- I don't like that wording; I will give you my top 5 favourite anime, in no particular order: GitS SAC (+2nd Gig); Fate/Zero; Great Teacher Onizuka; Cowboy Bebop; Death Note.
- Christ, that's even harder. Dark Souls (Original); Guild Wars (original); Amnesia: Dark Descent; Jak II; Golden Sun: The Lost Age.
- I think it's more hobbies I would like to get properly in, or do more of, than actually having: Hiking; rock-climbing; bike riding; paintball.
- I do not have any questions. I am The Question.
- How did I find Kametsu?

No one. There's no one that I truly and fully trust. There are certainly people whom I trust as such and I have one person whom I can talk to about basically anything-- and I mean anything--, but as far as truly trust, no one. It may be related to the fact that I, myself, am not known for my unwavering integrity as a whole.
if you find someone that you can fully trust, hold on to them and never stab them in the back. It's near impossible to find someone like that.
However, I do fully trust animals. -
I couldn't say what I am now. I haven't studied in many years.
Interesting, I have been three types, as I changed over the years.
For majority of my early school life, I was pretty average. I passed, average grades, nothing special. Maybe a little of a teacher's pet. As I entered high school, I was procrastinator that would wait between a week before or after something was due to start doing it, but get top grades (As) anyway.
I left school for a year to go do some vocational training (6 month training course for the career I wanted at the time). Something-- for better and worst--, changed during that time. I returned to school for my final year, but I was filled to the brim with arrogance, or as I call it now, "College mode". I suddenly found the work so incredibly easy; I still procrastinated, but not because I was being lazy, but because I could actually do the work roughly a day or two before it was due and get top grades. I only turned up to classes I felt like, or when truly required, but passed among the top of my grade.

I would take out any character with boobs greater then b cup.
You've committed mass genocide.
In my case, I wouldn't want my character dead, I would like to choose when he died.
I want motherfucking Slaine dead from Aldnoah Zero. I haven't been frustrated with a character was Kirino from Oreimo, but this is significantly worse.

Right, time to rant. I find this absolutely stupid! Meaning the arresting and sentencing of the founders/co-founders of TPB. All they did was set up a unique way to share files with each other. It is up to the person sharing the file to make sure that THEY are not breaking any copyright laws... its the same with MegaUpload... Dot Kom did nothing wrong. He was providing a means for people to share files, and once again its the individual user who should make sure that no copyright laws are being broken in doing so. Why should the owners be the ones to suffer the consequences...
Sunde will now serve the eight-month jail sentence handed down in 2010 for breaching copyright law. Sunde was also fined 46 million SEK (nearly $7 million) at the time.
The Pirate Bay website turned 10 years old last August, and continues to function — although the website notes it is now run by an organization, rather than individuals, and is registered in the Seychelles.
- source
If they (the people who are shouting about laws being broken) are so worried about business being taken away from them and losing money from the billions they are already making, then all the resources put into capturing, prosecuting and jailing the founder/s should be put into shutting down the site itself. Kill a weed at its roots, just breaking it off at the surface won't do jack shit... Look at TBP, its still up and running despite its history with it having to move its servers around on top of everything else. Sure another torrent sharing site may pop up, but if it gets all the sites get shut down and the Officials/Law gets on top of it, people will be very discouraged to start up another torrent sharing site.
You also got to ask the question then, what about nyaa.se and Kickass, never mind the other few hundred that do the same thing. Why weren't their owners/users targeted. You cant tell me that officials didn't know about these sites...
According to this wikipedia article, the judge found Sunde and Co. guilty of "assisting in making copyright content available" and here, on TPB's About page is pretty much what I have been getting to:
Only torrent files are saved at the server. That means no copyrighted and/or illegal material are stored by us. It is therefore not possible to hold the people behind The Pirate Bay responsible for the material that is being spread using the tracker. Any complaints from copyright and/or lobby organizations will be ridiculed and published at the site.
They did nothing wrong...
Regarding the article in this thread, I think its sad how they can allow him to attend his dads funeral, but has to be handcuffed
... As it was mentioned, he hasn't killed anyone, he is not a threat to anyones life, he is not a hardened criminal, and he will be with 2 guards, so whats even the point of the handcuffs... I did as much research as I could during this, so if you know something that I don't, then please by all means, mention it.
He was able to go to the funeral without handcuffs. That's the recent update. Any who the issue isn't copyrights. The issue is the blatant disregard of vital civil rights. Just suggesting the shutting down of these sites is just as wrong. That would only stoke their beliefs and bypass the real issue. Think of these sites as postal services. And think of the data as letters. Then you will see what I mean. What there resources need to be used on is coming up of a way for them to make money with current condition of technology. Not to destroy the vital civil rights of people for their own monetary gain. Read the following article

*sighs* Here we are again and I'm about to jump into something I don't want to just because I have nothing better to do. I'll try and keep this short and sweet, and to the point.
Hi again, Mr. Letter-san. Let's just lay a few things on the table, as far as I'm personally concerned:
- We're pirates; we download copyrighted material without paying; that's stealing; that's illegal
- Do I think the copyright owners are abusing their power? Short answer: Yes.
- Do I think the copyright owners are in the wrong, overall? Short answer: No.
- The more I think about that letter analogy, the more I dislike it and consider it a fallacy.
- Whoever thought 'Hollywood' cared is stupid (sorry); it's always been the copyright owners that were ones screaming foul.
- This is battle of concepts; of semantics and technicality; a battle of excuses and loopholes.
So, those few things out of the way, let's talk.
Let's start off by taking a look at TPB (The Pirate Bay). As far as I was last aware, the site does not host the files themselves; the merely hotlink/magnet--whatever you call it--, the files from it's original source elsewhere; the source is not directly affiliated with the site. My first question would become, as it was with the Megaupload incident, are they making profit, e.g ad revenue? I personally wouldn't know, as I have Adblock, but that's a moot point.
That's one difference between the Megaupload and PirateBay; where the files are hosted/located. The Megaupload had a notorious reputation for piracy, but you weren't able to just search for the content; you had to have the link provided by the uploader. I believe copyrighted material was taken down by the owners/staff originally and then such powers were extended to the copyright owners themselves, but to no avail-- VIVA LA MEGA--, *coughs*.
Kim Dotcom bloody well knew that copyrighted material was being uploaded to his site, on a massive scale, and only made half-heartened attempts to fix the solution. I mean, why would he? He was making millions upon millions of dollars through users' premium subscription. And you know what, us who pirated anime/TV shows, we loved it. We loved Megaupload.
Now as to why PirateBay is under the magnifying glass? I don't know ever little detail regarding this whole state of affairs from its conception, but I will make an educated guess and assume because it's a popular-- probably the most popular and [now] well known--, pirate site. It's become a monster, and you know one of the most affective way of killing a monster, i.e. the suppliers of pirated goods? Cut off the head. Unfortunately, that isn't so affective when the monster is a motherf******* HYDRA!
I'm not well versed when it comes to how the PirateBay conducts themselves. I will assume-- correct me if I'm wrong--, that because the files aren't hosted by them, they aren't technically required to remove anything, which is why it has been such a heated battle between the site and the copyright owners.
Allow me to use an extreme example: If I replaced all the copyrighted material and replaced it with other illegal material, such as say, child pornography, would the PirateBay would the still be in the position to hold a straight face and say it's no liable, as its not hosting the content?
Ah well thats good news. Glad somebody had some sense to realize that that wasn't exactly the right thing to do.
Alright, so if I understand you correctly (and the article), the suggestion is that we should have the right to send data ("letters") anonymously and without anyone else knowing, correct?
While I do agree with that (it's just something that I don't think will ever change now - its too late to imo), my point was that it shouldn't be the "mailman" getting jailed, fined etc. He is merely the method of transporter/middle man, I.E. the tracker. He is providing a service that, unfortunately, users have now decided to exploit and turn into distributing illegal content and thus the whole copyright now comes into play.
But yeah, thats a whole nother aspect of it.
Firstly, the analogue (non-digital) mailman isn't aware of the content of which he's delivering and as say, shouldn't be held liable; digital mailman, e.g. Piratebay KNOW that what they're 'delivering' is illegal, stolen content, but deliver it anyway, for which I love them for.
To make my point clear, allow me to use another extreme example:
Analogue Mailman: Delivers parcel; it's a bomb; he is not aware of such; recipient dies in subsequent explosion. He shouldn't be held liable for the death of the person, as he was not aware of the content of the parcel.
Digital Mailman: 'Delivers' parcel; knows its a bomb but doesn't care; knows if he delivers, recipient dies in subsequent explosion. He should be held liable for the death of the person, as he was aware of the content of the parcel and the obvious result of delivering such.
Well you certainly are articulated. And why am i letter-san :3. Anywho. The priate bay is not just a site for "copyright infringing content" you can find loads of stuff "linked" to legitimate material that are free for distribution Like cory doctrow's Content, which is a very good read. If I was TPB i would assume most definitely that all types of bit and byes would be sent including the so called "infringing content" but assumption is never the basis for any sort of conviction. You cannot assume that. If they did then they would be no better then the copyright holders themselves. But yea i see what you mean. This is just people trying to mess with loop holes and make a profit out of it. That maybe the case on the surface but there is a deeper side to it. Allowing a tiny crack can lead to the collapse of an entire system. When you allow COMPANIES abuse their power to invade the privacy of people then what you have done is allowed a very deep long crack to be made. a crack that can be exploited with mush more freedom by the world governemnts. Have you read the shit's that has occured in china, australia, UK due to this "surveilance"? Have you seen how all these whistle blowers are being blased as terrorists because they were able to evade governemnt snooping for the longest time? If we don't stop this opening, tracking of "letters" then we are looking at a bleary future. I mean your handing your internet freedom(the greatest tool for communication) on a silver platter. As for your sensitive question on pornography. stuff of that nature has been made illegal for moral sake not for monetary sake. I mean we are really comparing apples to oranges here. Sure both are fruits just like both types of contents are illegal. but the reason/intent for each being illegal is for different. I dont need to go into detail as to why that particular pornography is wrong. Their are lengthy discussions about that but i can say those who declared the sharing of bits and bytes to be illegal are not the ones creating the content, on the contrary those same content makers are supporting piracy like OPted articel said, they themselves originated due to their desire to make money off of anothers work. So it's like the 16 year old that is going to be sentenced to prison bu thinks if i cry hard enough i'll get away with it.
On the side can anyone explain to me why people in the music industry, who have already gotten there name out there, dont create websites with adds of their own so that people can dl their content. Because apparently they only receive 1% of all the revenue from their sales: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20100712/23482610186.shtml
AND no The Question i am not attacking you or anything. I'm just sharing some stuff that came to my mind as i read your post. So no hard feelings please.

First and foremost, I accept you're not attacking me and that this discussion is completely civil, and exists for the purpose of a mutual expansion of our knowledge and perspective on this hot topic. Secondly, please don't ask me to speak verbally. I'm not articulate then. I go off on tangents like a cat goes after a laser point.
I understand that PirateBay has lots of legitimate content for legitimate users (not pirates), but that didn't stop Megaupload being taken down, and if you kept up with that story, you'd know people lots a lot of their personal, irreplaceable files, as the site hosted the content themselves. Piratebay only 'magnets' you to legitimate content that exists elsewhere, so it's in less of a position to argue on that point than even Megaupload was.
Not to mention, the fact that there is legitimate users' argument is moot. That's not even something that should be brought up as point of argument. It's very much a bad apple and the barrel analogy, except its a lot more than one apple spoiling the lot. In regard to the PirateBay owners and/or whoever is handling the site at this point not knowing of the content on their site, not at this point. It gets complicated when the servers, users, etc. are based worldwide, or more importantly, outside of the USA, but they do have far reach, considering their ongoing political and economical turmoil.
Now, this crack. Coincidentally, what you're referring to is somewhat I avoided going into in my lost post, so let's touch on it here. Now, I'm going to be very optimistic and assume that whatever 'powers' the copyright owners, or whoever, are trying to obtain, are for good intentions and primarily to stop the piracy of their copyrighted goods and nothing more. The problem is that some of their methods of stopping piracy are starting to... overlap into other aspects of our online privacy that're unrelated to the original issue.
Although, you've got to realise something. [As far as I know] the COs (Copyright Owners) only started requesting the powers and these bills/legislation to be passed after we started pirating like their was no tommorow. We tread on their toes first-- worse, we tread on their toes, and then look them in eyes and started grinding our heel. In some ways, I think we put ourselves in this situation.
In regard to your apples vs oranges comment, I understand what you mean-- I did call it an extreme example--, but my point is still valid. We're not talking about why the laws exists; and we're not talking about specific of the laws. I was making reference to the concept of distribution of illegal goods; keeping things on a conceptual levels makes things more simple.
Again, the point was that you have some form of material; you're not meant to have it. Mind you, such an example couldn't exist. The fact of the matter is, CP is, I believe, illegal in all countries and isn't something you'd blatantly show off like PirateBay does with its [entirely different] content. Anyway, you understood my point and I'm straying - back on topic.
To your final question: I couldn't say. I know some of the newer bands do it; make a website hosting samples of their songs, with offers for sale of their entire work, but let's not get too much in that topic.

A bit of dark humour I read on Imgur:
"I can tell if I'm going to get laid based on what a woman is wearing. If she's wearing three-inch stiletto heels, I'm getting laid; if she's wearing runners, I probably won't catch her".
I laughed, and then cried mercy for my soul. -
I'm afraid not.

Hitsugi no chaika
You know season II starts in two weeks, right?

No shit sherlock, Just finished the first season. Still counts as a series, whether it be season or the animes overall conclusion. While its a continuation of a series, if its not continously running (like how naruto, fairy tail, one piece and such continously 'run') and the seasons are seperated by a few months, it can be considered a 'different' series. Like take to-love-ru for example. The original, motto to love ru and darkness are considered different series yet they all continue the same story. Same thing here.
To-love-ru darkness
At first I was unsure as to the reason for this mini-rant, but then I realised you misunderstood my point. My mentioning of season two had no relation to your little... explanation.
Allow to say it again, and in a more full form:
"Oh, you just finished season one? How did you find it? If you liked it, season two is starting in a few weeks!
<3"It's elementary, my dear Watson.
Sheesh, when you put things one way, it's easy to misunderstand! Sorry about that, my bad.
xD
But yea, I finished it in one night and liked it really much. Especially Red Chaika. Mhmmm
It's starting back up soon (as with a few others I have my eye on) but the waiting kills me, wish it would hurry up.
xD
It's nothing to worry about.
Yes, I rather liked the Red Chaika, more so than the 'real' Chaika.

King Kong, if only because I swim a lot, although considering a Megalodon is restricted to the water, I don't have a lot of faith in King Kong winning.
A scenario for you:
I approach you and offer you two choice:
Become immortal-- let's say Baccano's version of it--, but everyone you come to love and/or care for, now and in the future, will immediately contract a 'virus' (no cure - ever) that will cause them nightmares, waking and not, that eventually lead to suicide-- sort of like schizophrenia, except medication does not help.
Refuse to become immortal and (hoping to god you've watched Shin Sekai Yori) you will suffer the same fate as Squealer.
In that scenario, would you rather become immortal, but at the cost of your loved one's physical and mental wellbeing, or refuse and endure a living hell of constant unimaginable pain for many years, until you were finally put out of your misery? -
Hmm. I can't say the penny dropped for me. I'm not saying his point isn't valid, but for some reason, something didn't ring true about his words. I'm all for comparisons, but I felt this "the letter" is just a conveniently construed analogy. I mean, sure, the analog and digital systems are the same on a conceptual level, but that's it. There's more to it than that.
-
It's basically what the others have said. Baka-BT are probably one of the more-- if not the most-- strictest when it comes to approving anime, and they approve more than one version of any given anime series/movie, so there is a bit of choice. I would say stick to 720p; there's usually little reason to pay the extra quota for 1080p.
-
I'm still wrapping my head around your description. Sounds like a more appropriate title would've been, "How much time do you dedicate on average per week to anime-related matters".
Three part answer:
- I'm averaging a minimum of 12-13 episodes a day, although I'm running out of things I want to watch at the moment.
- If I'm not watching anime, I'm downloading/seeding/uploading, although I may also be doing that at the same time as viewing.
- Almost all my leisure time is dedicated to anime-related matters of late.

Since I can't find the spoiler button, I'm going to have to be as vague as possible.
I just finished watching Aldnoah Zero. I must say, I'm having a hard time remembering the last time an ending to an anime has left me wanting to throw something through my TV.
I mean, on one hand I'm really happy they had the balls to do something like that, but at the same time, I was sort of invested in a different ending. It's very much a love-hate relationship and if what happened DID happen and it wasn't a 'trick'-- and if it was, I'm going to bit both relieved and upset they back-stepped--, then I don't know where they intend to go next season, as far as characters go, because fuck Slaine being the main protagonist.
I haven't hated a character this much for a while, but I suppose that's an achievement in and of itself for the production team.
*claps* Well done!

SYNOPSIS
In 1972, the Apollo 17 mission found a hypergate to Mars on the surface of the moon. Upon landing, astronauts discovered an enchanted utility later referred to as "Aldnoah," giving the astronauts a status of superiority. Soon, many humans have relocated to Mars, and have adapted to the name "Martians." After Princess Asseylum, a royal Martian princess, descends onto Earth in an attempt to create a treaty between both planets, a war breaks out between Earth and Mars, and Martian soldiers begin to descend from the sky, riding steel giants, intent on exterminating humanity. -
Hi!
I'm The Question. I've been semi-lurking for quite a while, using my friend's account, instead of making my own, because, well, I'm lazy.
Before the Megaupload scandal and its' subsequent closure, I was an active user of Anime-Anarchy-- a hello to all other former users--, and am a member of it's essentially now-dead successor, Knights of Zero. I also frequented the Cartoon-World before its' own closure as well, but I was very much in the background there. I can't say I haven't travelled a little.
When I think about it-- although I haven't bothered to do any research to confirm this--, to me, it feels as if this forum is the last 'stronghold' for us users who prefer an active and organised medium for high definition anime accessed through direct-downloads, i.e. not torrents or IRC.
This is truly a haven for me and I thank all whom make this forum possible.

Depends how tired I am. They're blue, but I've found the more tired I am, the more of a darker shade they become.
