if its only for your friends then why are you putting it on a public forum?

if you want to make a mep with your friends you should organize it with them where ever it is you meet up O.o

Shep quit being such a hard head bastard. You are unexperienced in making a mep.. What makes you think you can just come here with no experience and make a mep and it'll be successful? Then when your mep fail, you plan on talking bad to other people? If you continue to make meps you will get flamed forever.

*rubs temple* Look guys, this whole thing is going nowhere. I'll try to play mediator but I doubt it's going to work...

To the coordinator: Some of the folks posting here have valid points. If you have no experience in editing you really shouldn't be attempting to make an MEP. Why? Because putting together an MEP is a tough job incorporating a great deal of organization, time, communication skills, and editing talent.
If you DO have some experience, then you should have your videos listed here so people can gauge your talent before they choose to join. People don't want to join a project, put several hours (sometimes several hundred hours!) into editing a segment just to have the coordinator drop the ball, it's a waste of time.
If you insist on going ahead and trying anyway without experience, then you'll just have to expect some flaming and take it in stride. Ignore it, don't encourage it, and do your best to make the video as good as you can. That will be your way to show them that you were right to try. Only respond to the posts which are actually showing genuine interest in your MEP.
Last but not least, it is considered very bad form (not only in this forum, but in all forums) to post several times consecutively. Please try to limit your posts or use the edit button, as was suggested by others.

To the people posting: Yes, I see where some of you are coming from. I agree that bad MEPs are taking up space on this forum and on the .org. But editors need to learn somehow. What good will flaming this would-be coordinator do? How will it help him to become a better editor? It won't. All it will do is perpetuate the thread you seem to want so desperately to die. If you want the project to die, then stop posting in his thread.
If he has spelling errors in his post, and you feel the need to point them out, why not do so in a less derogatory manner?

I'm sure that I'll get flamed for stepping in this way, since everyone seems to be on a roll, but I figured I'd try.
