Everything Bubbles says are words of wisdom. Sadly the translator was on break . . .

Here's what I was suggesting-

vs

The second clip showcases DBZA's current inspiration. If you compare the two voices, they are similar. Just, the second version sounds like someone imitating the first one, with a touch of Homestar Runner, and perhaps suffering from a cold.

Yeah, and then there's the ones who report people to them.

... Oh, is that who you meant? Well them too.

You: Make implied statement about people who spitefully report things being jerks.
Me: Make witty play-on-words crack insinuating that the jerks in question are actually the reportees rather than the reporters.

Who cares, I doubt that there's enough of them to actually garner Toei's attention and even if they do and they get shut down again... well then it's time to pull the fair use card.

Although, I do doubt that if they were to get shut down again that the guys from TFS would take legal action, just doesn't seem like their style.

This message is displayed at the beginning of every DVD. It says you can't duplicate the footage on said DVD for any reason, or you'll end up in jail for 5 years with a $250,000 fine. TFS has no legal argument they can make, and if anyone was taking anyone else to court, it would be Toei to TFS, not the other way around.

Wouldn't that be FUNi taking them to court? That's a US notice, and Youtube is a US site, so I assume legal action is the right of the US license holder. Not to say that Toei can't file a C&D or push FUNi to pursue legal action.

Note: I am in no way a legal expert, so I may be talking out of my ass here.

It seems ssjgozar bit the dust. Not a big fan but that can't be good.

Well, Gozar should have just done a public viewing rotation with his videos like I do.

But, due to this little raid, everything is completely hidden.

I guess that would just be up to a judge on what "limited use" is defined as. While you're probably right about this, I'm just putting this out there too.

Not a big fan either, but I see no legal problems with his videos. Toei is just hurting themselves, honestly.

How are they hurting themselves? This is causing no detriment to their company. So they made a few fans on the internet angry, it's not like they're going to stop buying stuff from them.

Well, we had gotten a lot of people telling us we'd revived their interest in the show.

Don't really think it's gonna effect Toei all that much, though.

KaiserNeko · Post by **KaiserNeko** » Fri Sep 11, 2009 7:58 pm

Alright, guys. Toei Animation is putting their foot down in a bad way right now, with account after account suffering from their iron fist. This may put an immediate halt to future releases. Do not take this as we're not going to still work on them. we just won't be uploading them to Youtube until we can work out an optimal plan.

Sorry, guys. We may try and hook you up personally when Episode 11's done, if we can.

You could always try a different website. DailyMotion and Viddler are pretty decent alternatives, and as far as I can tell they have nowhere near as many issues with videos being taken down.

Maphisto86 · Post by **Maphisto86** » Sat Sep 12, 2009 12:16 am

We all knew this would happen given the way many corporate entities have reacted to anything even remotely encroaching on their franchises over the internet.

It is not just Toei, but all major media corporations have been watching Youtube like a hawk over the last year or so. I wonder if they have hired staff just for that purpose?

Even though it is too early to ask, I am curious why all of you on Team Fourstar have not simply moved all of your videos to thatguywiththeglasses.com? Is it because the site could not handle the bandwidth if audiences could only watch there?

Either way, it would be best if Dragonball Abridged was posted at two online locations. Best of luck guys!
