Are you even interested in brickfilming, JT?

Yeah, why'd ya think I joined?! I have just been busy because I had tests before school ended and I can't really brickfilm during the day as I film on my landing, and there's a window across the way and below is about a 15ft. drop. Basically, my computer is near the stairs (I'm upstairs) and my set up is next to my computer. There is a window across from the stairs, on the upstairs level but there is not floor there, know what I mean? So a lot of light gets through. I do animate from time to time and I'm working on a tutorial.

If anything, Café Corner had most to do with brickfilming, because people would occasionally bring it up in there.

Perhaps you could move your computer to a more suitable location. mini/smile

Maybe a room with no windows, or just a few that you can cover up.

And, if not able to move the computer, do digital camera animation. Get unplugged.
It's not a very conventional method, but I've found ways around its problems.

Yeah but I like my set up, and I don't have a digital camera of my own. Just a camera mainly for videos, and is only really good in daylight, plus my parents would go nuts if I asked for another camera! They don't understand how some cameras are better at some things than others... and my computer is defiantly immoveable...

You're right about that. But I don't remember a MLP thread. Either there was one and it got deleted, or you're just saying there could have been one, or you just put it in to emphasise your point.

Or, judging by your avatar, wish there was one.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: Community Forum Changes

The Pony thread was created less than a week before the community forum was relinquished. I don't blame you for missing it.

J.T, this is a site for the discussion of brickfilming. I'm afraid that if you're not going to participate in that, there isn't much point in you being here.

This.  We didn't really want it originally because there are lots of kids here who are prone to just posting junk images in any thread they don't approve of or think is funny / lends itself to a meme.  They don't have access to it now, so it's less of an issue.

However, some of the threads and posts were important to Brickfilming.  The Cafe Corner was good because you could ask small simple question without having to make a topic about it.  I think taking the Community out completely was a bit of a mistake but I understand what the moderation group is trying to do.

Which is exactly why we have this thread.

Wow. That was really efficient. We shoulda gotten one of those years ago. It would've saved us a lot of trouble.

Well, I didn't know that, and that was a quote from KG's Batman film he did a while ago.

Chat is really the only kind of place to have discussions like that. It's not long lasting, so it doesn't leave scars on our site.

I don't understand why this is such a problem. Everybody's back to brickfilming and the site is less troll-ish now.

Woah woah woah. I DO brickfilm and I AM interested in it. When did I say I wasn't? I am allowed to be a little annoyed with the fact my favourite forum was deleted but if you read my last few posts, you'll know that I have said that I've moved on from the angry stage and I am co-operating and decided to move on. Jeez! A few people in this "community" aren't very welcome to a different emotion from me are they? mini/madhead

I was okay with this thing before but that's just a bit ridiculous. I mean, you ban us all to stop us from making stupid threads and to get on with brickfilming and then you guys make one so you can have an excuse to mess around in the community...

Seeing as how ponies hold meme status here, it's not exactly "pointless", but because it holds meme status, it would also have quickly gotten off-topic and overrun.
