Title: New Forum/Board Idea Post by tkc1989 on Mar 3rd, 2005, 10:42am I was thinking randomly and wondered if it's possible to have a new board where people can actually upload their video files onto the site for other people to download- is that actually possible? coz if it is then that would be amazing coz it seems to me that loads of people have rare videos on their computers which they can't send to other people because the file is too big. Not sure how or if it would work but it's just a thought. |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by gooberrygirl on Mar 3rd, 2005, 10:57am I like that idea...at another forum I frequent, the trade board is also the file sharing board...so maybe we can add that option there. As well I was thinking maybe we can have a selling option too since some people here want to sell some of thier goo stuff. I guess it could be called the Trading, Selling, Sharing board lol ~Mo |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by girlnamedgrace on Mar 3rd, 2005, 11:22am Big ooooooo!! I love the idea of a file sharing board, I have nothing to share, but will gladly view whatever anyone else posts up on it!!! ;) |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by Walter on Mar 3rd, 2005, 1:13pm There are photo gallery tools that some boards use that will also allow users to register and upload their own files. They are configurable so that the board op can determine for themselves what file types to allow. Coppermine and Gallery are two such packages, and they are freeware. The real problem is legality of that. The artists "legally" own the rights to their shows. You have seen those messages on movies that say "any distribution blah blah blah is strictly prohibited without the express written consent blah blah blah". Sharing videos you recorded off TV or at shows falls into the same category. And the owner of the message board becomes the person who takes the fall because they are supplying the means to share these files. There are boards where videos are posted in their galleries. It think most of the ones I have seen say that they have received permission from the artist to post them. |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by RogueUK on Mar 3rd, 2005, 2:04pm That would be totally awesome! :D I was wondering about something similar myself...recently a lot of people have been asking for certain files...things like Jenny, White Trash Wagon, Silent Night...where possible I've been offering to send people stuff they don't have (the only reason *I* have most of these files is because people were nice enough to send them to ME in the first place, so I like to pass on the Goo) but I was wondering about having some FORMAL way of doing that, you know...where we could all maybe post lists of what we have and then anyone missing out could be sent the stuff they're missing. I don't know what the legality of all this is...most (*ahem*) of the Goo stuff I have on my comp was aquired in a very legal manner, ie they're MP3 and MPeg files I ripped from the CDs and DVDs myself, CDs and DVDs which I LEGALLY PURCHASED and so surely sharing them with you guys couldn't cause a problem...? I mean isn't it just like lending someone a CD so they can tape it for themselves? And THAT has been going on for years, and no-one ever seemed to have a problem with it... ??? Um, about the orginal post topic...I know there are sites like yousendit.com and youshareit.com which will let you upload huge files for others to download...I guess having an official part of the board dedicated to this would depend on legal issues, though... :-/ like Walter said. |

Plus, even the trading section isn't being too successful... |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by Eva on Mar 3rd, 2005, 8:50pm sorry guys... don't want to do that here. it can be done on the website however... i'll think about it... i have no clue how to do that and i don't know if i have the computer power to do it... and people just couldn't upload stuff themselves to it due to safety issues. if you want to post a link to a download as long as it's legal and safe... you can do that here. Ragdoll uploads tons of stuff like that to her site so maybe you can check things out over there. |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by THE sLaVe GiRl on Mar 3rd, 2005, 11:20pm you can also get pretty much every dab of goo video on IRC. that's where i get any of it anymore. i can't stand watching some two hour t.v. show to catch two minutes of goo, so i just wait until it pops up on IRC. usually takes a day or two... |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by girlnamedgrace on Mar 4th, 2005, 4:34am Slave Girl, excuse my lack of a brain, whats IRC? On the topic of ebay, I bought storytellers/behind the music there for $18.49 which works out at E14.00 which I think is really great value. Plus I get to watch American commercials. How I laugh. Laugh all night at bad tic-tac ads. HAHAHAHAHA ;D |

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by nmf016 on Mar 4th, 2005, 11:20am IRC is my hero... Here's a basic how-to that someone wrote a while back. I don't think they'll mind me reposting it. Quote:

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by THE sLaVe GiRl on Mar 4th, 2005, 12:32pm yes, IRC isn't the most user friendly program, but once you figure out the basic commands, those are really all you need to know. just don't ask for people to send you album stuff, that's one of the unwritten rules of the channel and folks will get pissy with you. you should have seen the feeding frenzy on some poor schmoe one night who came in asking for "gutterflower". i don't think they have anything that is technically available for sale, actually, like i don't think the music in high places show is on there, etc. |

i know how to do this. once you are in the directory, type 'cd...'

I don't mind sending stuff to people as your as their email box is big enough or you have AIM/msn and a decent connection speed.

Title: Re: New Forum/Board Idea Post by AFuelieNamedGoo on Mar 4th, 2005, 2:09pm IRC is kind of a pain in the ass to learn how to use. It took me ALONG TIME before I figured it out.

i feel the same way. if i have something on my list that someone is DYING for, i don't have a problem sending it to them. anything on there is pretty free game. there is some stuff that i have that i don't have listed because i don't trade it except with traders that are sort of on the same level. before anyone thinks i'm a snot ;) let me explain. once you've been trading for a long time and have a large amount of stuff, it actually becomes harder and harder to negotiate trades. it is hard to be able to make a match between what you do/don't have and what the other person does/doesn't have. and there is a lot of stuff that is common, and commonly available, and so many people have it at that point that it doesn't trade anymore. sort of a supply vs. demand or a "dilutes the market" sort of thing. if those are even actual terms. ;D so, yeah, i pretty much don't have a problem sending stuff to peeps. i can try AIM'ing or messaging it to you, or if that totally won't work, i can even possibly send out a cd. i always keep a ridiculous supply of blanks on hand, and i don't ever worry about postage because i just run it through the meter at work... |
