Hello GiantJames. While I admire and appreciate your efforts, I find myself scratching my head at a few things.
First off, why reupload videos onto your own channel? Most of our videos are already hosted on youtube, whether it be on the official MVZ youtube page or our own personal youtube accounts, so why create more copies of it onto a different account? That would just spread out the views , and in turn rob each editor of just one big view count which can be pretty annoying for some of us. Wouldn't it be easier to just create playlists that link to our already hosted videos, which we would definitely could you permission to do.
Secondly, stressing over something like this isn't worth it. There is no reward or payout. Just a lot of time wasted time.
Thirdly, reading your thread over on A2E, I definitely would not advice promoting a "700 dollar program for free." You're just asking for trouble, unless you have the money for court fees and lawsuit charges. It's also a great way to get your account shut down.
Finally, why are you posting as a guest? Please have the decency to at least create an account and post as an actual member. We would certainly love to help you out in any way if you were at least a contributing member here.

i can make an account on here..i dont mind.....the reason these past two are on guest accounts is bc they are the first times i'v ever actually been on here......and while i do understand what your saying about how people hate having spread out views....at the same time i hate that...but i am also contributing my videos to the channel....and u are right...it is dangerous to offer a 700 dollar program for free..but the thing is...the government cant determine that i'm not just buying the program and mailing it....assuming i worded it right....now heres why i dont want to put playlists...lets face it...more people check out uploaded videos from people than favorited or playlists....also...one thing we are trying to achieve..is to have a channel that uploads videos from some of the greatest tribute makers on all of youtube....not a channel that uploads a couple great vids and posts links to other channels (that arent involved)....basically i understand that it might irritate some people...but me and every person i'v convinced to join so far are accepting that we might get more views all together by uploading more videos.....if you still cant help me i understand but i would really love to be able to upload videos from your channel the way i described with links to ur site and channels....and the part about stressing out over this and why i would do it....well....i'v been a tribute maker now for about 3 years.....and i think that i'm really good....but its taken me 3 years to get 337 subscribers.....and i'v always wanted to have a youtube channel that really took off...i'm not talking about a million subscribers..i know that number is WAYYYY too high....but i just wanted to be really up there in the group i'm involved in...like a couple thousand subscribers....this channel in one month has gotten 52 subscribers..and its going up literally every day...so i'm trying really hard to make this channel the success i never had on my channel....most people arent even respectful enough to just reply to me so for that i say thank you.....i'v been talent searching for a month and have sent over 80 youtubers personally written messages...and only like 5 were nice enough to reply...then i forget who i sent messages to since nobody answers..and i send some people more than one message and piss them off....this channel is to be a showcase of the best tribute makers from everywhere....i dont want to do anything but upload good tributes for people to watch thats all.....and thats why its been so stressfull for me....and also...and i know this is too much information..but honestly i dont have alot going on in my life...my entire existance has been an extremely crappy one....i literally have nothing good in my life at all except for my sister who lives over 5 hours away and i only get to see her twice a year usually.....so tribute making is something that makes me really happy....and when i see how good this channel is doing already and everytime i see that someone has agreed to be a member it makes me really happy....so ya...thats the main reason why i care so much about this project....more than anything else...it makes me happy in the end....and i promise that i'll become a member right now for you bc i actually do like you guys and i could see myself coming here again alot

and let me word it a different way for why i want to upload onto my channel.....would you subscribe to a channel that doesnt upload any new videos and just made playlists of other channels? or would you subscribe to the channel that uploads all the great videos

From what I took off that, it kinda seems like you're trying to use "our" videos to promote your own videos. To me, that just seems really cheap and lazy. I understand where you're coming from, but there are really better ways to get people to subscribe and watch your videos. One way is to contribute on editing forums, such as A2E and MVZ. We got tons of members of both sides, who will comment on your videos when you post them. Our competitions generate a ton of views, so joining one would be an ideal way to get your name out there. And the feedback from these comps will help you improve your editing craft and make you a better editor. Editors will come in as newbies, and within a year, will have made a name for themselves while also having tons of subscribers and views. Take the poster above me for example. And looking through your channel, I see you made a Lex Luger mv. People here LOVE Lex Luger!
But yeah, if you're still fixed on uploading "our" videos, the best way to get permission is to ask the editor directly. I can't speak for everyone, only my personal videos. Aaaaand I don't think you'll want any of my shitty videos. If theres a certain mv you want on your channel, feel free to shoot the editor of that video a message.
You seem like a good dude, James, and you have some really cool videos. If you're willing to stick around here and the editing community, entering comps and contributing to the scene, I'm sure you'll go a long way.

i'm not trying to use other peoples vids to promote my stuff...every video promotes good tribute makers....people are welcome to join our channel....most people dont feel like it...which is why we ask to just upload the vids

Some of them don't have pages on youtube, which is why we upload certain videos to our channel. But really, most of the work and activity is done through this forum and our events, rather than youtube. Most of the videos have been featured on a comp, that the editors submitted themselves. And you can reach pretty much everyone (that's still active here) through PM.

Up at the top, where it says "members." You could search for posters there, but I'll save you some time: mvzone.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=membersBut knowing first hand, he only pops in here once in awhile. He isn't so active on youtube either, which is why we post his videos on the MVZ channel instead.
