Relationships with other AMV sites

[TritioAFB]

This topic goes to all editors that spent time between the org and other sites related to AMVs. How's your experience dealing with other sites? And will you be as active as you're in the org? Without considering the language as a barrier (Ex. Russian, French, Hungarian sites)

At my case I registered first in the org but didn't become active until the final months of 2010. I'm active at AKROSS, tend to visit AMV-France everytime I have the chance, and active at ZonaAMV as I do in the org

And here I expected some serious link-exchanging :3

The org is the only site i frequent. The language barrier has always been a contributing factor for me not visiting other sites.

[Ijexis]

I've never really frequented any other AMV sites, I've been linked to videos on them, mainly only AKROSS I can think of but never have I signed up to be a member. So yeah, only the org I visit.

I'm with Pwolf on this one. However, I have visited AMVnews and I really want to learn Russian so that language barrier doesn't become a problem for me no more. :3

[gotegenks]

how are we supposed to get past the language barrier without learning the language?

honest question

[BasharOfTheAges]

That all depends on how you define "participate."

You can pretend to participate by posting in garbled google-translate filled phrases here and there to mask the fact that you're only there to pimp your own stuff or stuff of friends/studio-mates. Not like that concept is unheard of or anything.

[Shin-AMV]

I lurk on all the other sites (zona, akross, amvnews, amvfrance, etc) but don't actively post in any of those places that often. Google translate generally gives you the gist of what's being said, and the majority of them speak enough English that you can get a response from an occassional post it seems.

[CodeZTM]

Language barrier is the primary reason I'm not more involved. But I'll also be honest and admit that it's intimidating to walk into somewhere that you've never had any sort of interaction with, AND not be able to accurately talk without googlespeak.

I do the same as Shin, I check the other sites fairly regularly, but I rarely comment/participate. If there's something that wasn't translated well enough and I really wanna know what was said, I can usually find a native speaker in IRC to help me out. >_>

I've never gone over to one of the other communities to share/pimp my own videos or that of my friends. I started checking other sites years ago because they had uploaded/shared my videos and then I ended up lurking around the rest of the site....
