The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

I just created another music video.  It is in Japanese though.  I made this video mainly for myself since I love the song so much and I understand Japanese, but I think you'll like it even if you don't understand it.  The clips not only fit the Japanese wording, but also the tune and the distinct "feel" of the song.  As always, my new music videos will be hosted on my website and the newest one's will be the last on the page.  The vid is called "Dearest (non translated)", since I plan to translate it with captions using adobe after affects later.  It is the last one on the page.  I hope you like it:

Nicely done. Did it take long to make?


About 2 hours cuz the clips were really hard to match to the vocal and musical parts of the song.  The one thing about this Japanese song is that it takes about 12 seconds for them to sing what we would typically sing in 3 or 4 seconds so it made it quite difficult to sync.  Glad you enjoyed it! :D

Thanks for making it.  I guess that is the difference between the Japanese language and english, certain things take longer to say in one then the other.

Yes.  I can't read or write it well though.  I can understand parts of it when it's written, but I'm terrible at writing it and reading it. :( I can understand it quite well though. B)

I've taken French, Spanish, German, and Japanese, and Japanese was definently the hardest.  It's the only one I really have any interest in though (no offence intended to anyone here though.).  I don't remember much about French or German, cuz I took them in 3rd and 4th grade (in 10th now), but Spanish I can understand fairly well, but again, I can't read it worth crap nor can I speak or spell it.  With all the languages I've studied, I could understand, but I couldn't speak, write, or read them a all. :(  Just understand it.

Didn't know they taught Japanese in other then colleges.  You must be pretty smart or gifted with learning languages.  Especially some like Japanese which I heard is totally different then English with it's tones of voice doing the meaning of the word I heard.

They have 6 years of Japanese at my middle and high school combined.  I only had 3 years, but I can still understand most stuff.  It's really not that hard once you've heard them speak so much.
