Stop with the Double and Triple Releases

I've noticed a horrid trend taking hold lately. People are posting announcements of two or even three videos being released at once in one thread. It'd bad enough that many people have a hard enough time making ONE good video. Now you're subjecting your audience to multiple crap-fests at once? Is there some mentality that's taken hold of editors where quanity > quality?

You're [as a whole] becoming too mainstream, watered-down, and just flat-out boring. There's still a few good editors here who know how to do fun things, and I won't name names, but I'm generally disappointed with the state of editing at this point. So as a favor to the situation in general, don't release multiple videos at once until you master the art of getting at least ONE right.

I agree.

Same here. I've been making AMV's for a while, and I am still trying to make a decent one. I have several that I have uploaded here so far, and apparently not a one of them have yet to stand out, except maybe my .Hack one, but that's not the pooint. It's quality over quantity for me, and I have seen damn good AMV's that I wish mine could be half as good. The quality lately has been dwindling and I must say to AMVer's, step it up a notch, focus on one AMV at a time instead of having multiple projects going at once where your attention is divided.

Um, practically everyone I knew who did it wasn't making a ton of videos at the same time. They just held off their releases until things piled up.

Also, time to edit != quality. Not damn fucking near.

x2 on nerdrage

Aw, why the hate? Releasing multiple videos at a time doesn't immediately mean that the editor did a half-baked job on them. If you have more than one video to release at a time, you should consolidate them into one announcement as a matter of courtesy.

(I can't believe I just had to type that out. Isn't it kinda... obvious?

Isn't it a written rule of the Announcement forum as well?
