BOOyah!

And since it'll probably get deleted, and I'll get banned, here:

Don't expect the AMV community to support this contest. The con is corrupt and for-profit - it's not for the fans, just look around for info on it on any site but this one - it's all the same song. This con and it's AMV contest should just rot away to nothing.

Pathetic, I say. And ban me if you want to, I don't care. The lies and crap that came with this con make me feel ill, and I wish I could get my 43 bucks back.

Rot in hell, fan exploiters. You don't care about the fans, so stop pretending. All ya care about is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Hmmm.. Atlanta...

Well, again, I myself will not support a for profit con's AMV contest since it means someone will try to make money of us even if it seem indirect...

I personally Like AWA and see Kunicon as a run at Atlanta's piece of the Anime Con pie... I sure hope that the community realizes this... I've have a lot of experience in dealing with "for profit Science Fiction cons" in the past and all of them put the $ bill first prior to the fans... I see anime ones no different...

After a chat with <b>DrngdKreationz</b>, I decided to create an LJ Community - http://www.livejournal.com/~boycott_kunicon

Not much on there yet, but please spread the word.
