a) You know how people complained when Youtube was bought by Google, saying that they were going to mess with it. Well, yeah. I don't know if it's Google's fault or someone else, but it sucks ALREADY. Haven't you noticed how they're purging whole episodes of series? ;____; I had to delete most of my subscriptions, which is how I kept track of users that were uploading entire animes/movies. All for nothing. I weep, and regret I didn't watch/download the stuff I saved for later when I could.

b) Hot DAMN, Rikuou! And he's not even one of my favorite characters of Gohou Drug, but that's just eyecandy the way I like it, dammit. *drools*

Meanwhile, all those HOLiC/Drug crossovers are always keeping the same pairings and shit and tossing Kakei and Saiga as background instead of spotlight smexing, which is just D: for me. You know what I want to read? A crossover with Rikuou/Watanuki, or Kazahaya/Watanuki, or Doumeki/Kazahaya. With so many pervs out there writing crossovers, and nobody does that? Why is it all R/K and D/W? Unbelievable. If it were other fandom, it'd be an orgy of sorts.

Tell me about youtube's suckiness. Remember my SNL sketches deleted? Well, they also deleted the Nodame opening for copyright reasons (wtf) and then they fucking DELETED MY ACCOUNT.

I ♥ U UTUBE LOL.

.........

But really, a piece of something not licensed on the US, deleted?! I can kind of understand SNL or things for licensed animes, but a fucking OPENING SEQUENCE?

That's just... no.

I even saved the email since I was so WTF'ed by it:

"This is to notify you that we have removed or disabled access to the following material as a result of a third-party notification by Fuji Television Network, Inc. claiming that this material is infringing:

Nodame Cantabile OP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqgB5mh1Vzo"

And then the other day I tried to log in and I my account had been deleted. I guess it was because they pretty much deleted EVERYTHING I uploaded because of copyright infringement. A fucking opening sequence, for realz.

Why does even Fuji TV care?!

Youtube's changed that much?! O_O

I haven't really noticed since I'm not really a signed up member. I just like to stalk and watch my anime eps/movies but is the anime that's not licensed in the US going to be deleted?

Then all our computers will go to hell from our hard drives dyin' of too many downloads.

I just have an account to bookmark favorites and stalk some people who uploads videos/series/parodies I like. But yeah, it's been like that for a couple of months, which is just major suckage. It had saved me so many times, when it had whole series I couldn't find active torrents for D:

Poor hard drives T_T

I clicked the link for the Rikuo pic (because frankly I don't care for YouTube) and now there is drool on my desk. I MISS GOHOU DRUG.

Honestly, I think anything that isn't R/K or D/W (or OC, which makes me twitch in CLAMP-verse) will break the fanbrats' brains. *thinks for a moment* Cool. :D

I miss it, too D:

But that's the thing! In other fandoms, fanbrats refuse to write anything remotely canon, and in HOLiC (besides Clow/Yuuko) no one writes non-canon or alternative ships. I just don't get it. And it's not because it's CLAMP, because I've seen some batshit or strange pairings in X and CCS fanfiction, so... I don't know, man. I know there are few human characters to play with, but then you see Tsubasa and it's always the same ten couples or something as well.

And dammit, Rikuou/Watanuki would be shiny. And snarky, too!

[identity profile] shirasakura.livejournal.com 2007-02-08 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
In all fandom fanbrats refuse to write canon (I guess that makes me a fanbrat, because I've been trying to write a post-GoF because I haven't liked the last two; I hope it ends better).

And I really don't know why not for TRC. It has plenty of human characters, and they can sorta-kinda come back, but dammit, I want more than KuroFye. I'm only reading that series anymore for the xxxHOLiC stuff.

R/W would be so fun to read. Watanuki would call him a [insult referring to size or eating habits here] and Rikuo would have a comeback. And a GOOD one. Not necessarily perverted, like his are to Kazahaya (which are honestly probably just made so Rikuo watch his reaction), but still. SNARKYNESS!

Hey, not every non-canon writer/reader is a fanbrat ^_^ And I've met some idiots who ship only canon, so...

And even if the characters won't come back *hugs Touya and Yukito*, you can still fill the blanks. See how the fandom filled half a year of Kurogane and Fay in Shurano/Sharano or the whole backstory of Ashura-oh, but they're unable to write how Sorata and Arashi met in Hanshin, or Yukito worried while curing his king from the poison, or empress Amaterasu smexing Souma, or Ashura and Yasha fighting for the castle in the sky, or Primera stalking Shougo, or Kyle being a sexy bastard at Spirit. And these is the canon stuff; add all the possible fanon to invent! But no, the only couples/characters they write are the main ones and the vampires and hunters.

The thing is they say youtube became popular because of all the homemade videos. But you know that isn't true. It became popular because of the videos they are deleting. Now that they are deleting everything people will just go somewhere else.

I was so mad when they deleted all the Avatar Fan Videos. D:

WTF? I haven't seen one homemade video on YT like, ever. They all seem lame and unfunny to me unless for some certain cases (like the guys dressed up like Pacman and one of the ghosts, running around an office, and the guy dressed up as a Tetris block walking down the street). I mean, I understand if they want to post their camwhoreness to share with family and friends, but sharing with strangers would only be hot for silly MySpace scene kids.

YT is big because of the illegal stuff, yeah, but deleting AMVs and fanvids in general because they use copyrighted footage... that's just utterly retarded. If anything, it gives series/movies/games/whatever publicity and makes people want to buy the original. I would've never watched Princess Tutu if I hadn't seen one spectacular AMV on YT, for instance.

They deleted the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya parody that had the Hellsing characters in the OP theme. D: It was made of pure brilliance and now I can never find it again because it was made by a Japanese guy! *SOB*

psychicdreams made a sort of orgy fic awhile back. I think she takes requests.

BTW do you mean you want them to interact or just simply have sex?

..........I have never read smut yet, not even for OTPs. I'm not starting with crackfics, from all things. You know, I was only joking. As in "yeah, interesting, shiny idea I don't get why it's not written and why this fandom is so weird compared to others, and might read it in a hypothetical case that it isn't OOC PWP and doesn't suck much". And I don't like orgyfics at all.

Now, Kakei/Saiga soft porn without any of the kids around to take the spotlight? Sign me in! Except I'm not giving someone I don't even know requests, ever. And I don't like to push someone to write a pairing she might never find remotely as cool to write as I think it is; it's rude.

I prefer interactions over sex. I'm a romantic kind of girl, even with crack.

OMG.

Bah, YouTube apesta. DDD: Ya ni hago corajes.

Y apoyo todo en lo que respecta a Holic. Me encantaría leer un Doumeki+Himawari, por ejemplo, o Watanuki/Akira crossover porque el RPG en el que ando me dejó traumada (cosa que un día escribiré, porque serían divertidos juntos en canon).

...Cuál Akira? O_o

Yo soy rara, no sé. Con lo que la gente ignora a Himawari (excepto para ser yaoi cheerleader, aunque veo de dónde sale eso), ya me gustaría a mí que el manga acabara en threesome como MKR -para que el fandom explote de asco porque, camarero! hay una vagina en mis donuts!

Wishful thinking, supongo. Como a mí ya me da igual cómo termina la vida amorosa del Wata...

[identity profile] telrunya.livejournal.com 2007-02-09 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
xDDD Akira Touya de Hikaru no Go.

Y seh, debería dormir. Incluso, eso haré porque huh, suficiente me entretuvo ya The Wish List, se supone que solamente leeré en el trabajo, diablos.

Yo quiero que acabe en threesome por las mismas razones. Igual y me da lo mismo, sinceramente.

Es que hay tanto Akira en Japón... Pero con Watanuki/Akira, toda la historia sería diferente XD Porque le soplaría el tip de que hay un fantasma detrás de Hikaru moviendo los hilos XDDDD

a) o_O No fastidies... No me había dado cuenta porque no estoy suscrita a ningún canal ni me han dicho nada respecto mis videos. Pero si van a seguir con la misma política, youtube perderá toda la gracia que es evitar que se nos llene todo el disco duro.

b) Gracias por la imagen, yo tampoco la tenía. Al verla no he podido evitar pensar que es una lástima que las CLAMP dejaran la serie en hiatus...

Lo que es triste es que me están diciendo que Youtube parece o finge ignorar este hecho por completo. Lo cual es una mierda; yo flipo con que estén borrando cosas como fragmentos de series (openings, endings, escenas graciosas) o AMVs. A este paso, sólo quedarán los videos de adolescentes tontos brincando enfrente de su webcam!
