Sorry, we don’t really allow these kinds of discussions here, and yes, that term is considered against the rules, even if you self censor it yourself, it’s clear what you’re talking about.

I’ve modified your comment to make it more about the bear. Let’s please not participate in that kind of discrimination in the forums from now on.

@Snatcher, the Dragon Ball Super manga is an odd one.

Firstly, It skips over the "Resurrection F" arc (likely to keep pace with the more briskly moving anime, and due to the fact that it got a separate manga tie in back when the film version released, though an incomplete adaptation as they wanted readers to go see the movie to see how it ends).

Secondly, it also skips over the "Broly" arc from the modern movie and goes straight into a manga exclusive arc that takes place after the Super anime.

Despite these things though I generally find it to be a better telling of Super's narrative than the anime is though, particularly it's version of the "Goku Black" arc. The mangaka, a big fan who was working on a fanfiction sequel to GT called Dragon Ball AF before being taken on by Toriyama as his apprentice, seems to have a much better grasp on series continuity than whomever is running the show over at Toei.

Fun fact, if you can track down Dragon Ball AF online, the narrative being set up is pretty similar to what would go on to happen in Super's "Goku Black" arc, with an evil Supreme Kai assaulting Earth with an evil version of Goku.

@Zuljaras I am quite surprised that PETA hasn't gone after them yet. Seems right up their alley.

@RR529 Well I have seen the movie, and I know what happens in F, But what I didn't know was about how super was made, thats pretty cool.

Keep yer dang horses outta the capitol!!!

@Zuljaras That’s an extremely sad story. Meanwhile, everyone else is getting upset about a slur not directed at them. Oh, people

Hopefully they spare the bear’s life, hopefully the woman who was attacked heals up.

@bimmy-lee well they can't. It is against the law but the police allows it as the government buys the votes of those people.

@BloodNinja it is so easy to say "omg racism!", "omg discrimination!" when you have zero experience with this kind of stuff

@Tasuki I do not think PETA operates in my country. Also PETA kills more animals than it saves.

Let’s move on from that particular subject and avoid hyperbole 🤗

One person complaining and a moderator enforcing the site rules is not an outraged mob.

@Zuljaras Indeed! If you are comfortable sharing, what is your country?

@BloodNinja Bulgaria. I think it is displayed in my profile here in NL.

@Zuljaras Bulgaria! Amazing. Do you participate in Olympic Weightlifting? Your country has some of the strongest lifters, ever.

@BloodNinja No idea to be honest. I do not follow much sports and the Olympics

@Zuljaras Yes while that is true about PETA that seems like something they would jump on. I mean. They went after Ringling Bros for years accusing them of mistreating their animals.

YouTube tech question

If up uploaded an episode of The Simpsons to my youtube, kept it as unlisted, (it's an mp4 that I ripped/converted from iTunes), do you think youtube will see it's copyrighted material & block it? Any idea what could happen as a result? Every time I've uploaded something to youtube, it says "checking for copyrighted material".

I'm not sure what penalty could be if the video get's flagged as copyrighted during the upload.

Anyone can answer, but I'll also tag @Eel & @TheJGG, because maybe you have experience?

@WoomyNNYes Eventually, it will potentially get flagged for copywrite. Depending on how YouTube handles things, your account will be banned permanently (worst case) or you will be warned and the content taken down. I put up a speed run of Aria of Sorrow for GBA a couple years ago, and it got flagged for copywrite and I couldn't upload videos for 6 months as punishment. I wasn't even posting it publicly, nor was I monetizing the video. I just wanted to have it backed up somewhere.

@Zuljaras I don't follow those things, either, but I AM an Olympic lifter so I vaguely follow that stuff. Bulgarians are strong AF!!!

I wouldn't worry about copyright claims, its not like you want to earn money from the video, so they can claim it. A claim simply means they'll add ads and get the revenue for them.

If it's a strike though, I'm not sure how those work.

@BloodNinja ah there is one Bulgarian achievement in the Olympics that is still valid. High jump for women. Stefka Kostadinova jumped 2.09 meters in 1987. This world record is still unbeaten today

@Zuljaras That’s amazing!

I'd agree, Rusev the Bulgarian brute was probably one of the strongest and most dynamic athletes in the wwe. Not to mention, one of my favorites. I bet most of the Bulgarian men are similar in stature and can rip someone limb from limb!
