AionTube.com and AionCast.com

Mark · 10-08-2007, 06:53 PM

If you've been trolling the forums recently, you may have noticed this thread. It started off with AionSource.com regular Disturbing suggesting quite an interesting idea and quickly turned into a discussion on how to best implement said idea after user knight16 pulled a great domain name out of a hat. Needless to say, the rest will soon be history as Disturbing, vbchic, a non-AionSource.com member (DJ), and I are pleased to announce AionTube and AionCast.com, a two-pronged joint venture which will (hopefully) benefit the AION fan community greatly. How so, you ask?

Currently, the Aion fan community has no place to turn to for dedicated Aion video hosting. No place to upload montages or walkthroughs or trailers. Most use YouTube. Why not have our own YouTube for Aion, run by Aion fans? That was the logic behind AionTube.com, as simple as it may seem. As for AionCast.com, that's a much more complicated effort spanning shoutCast, Ventrillo/TeamSpeak, and blog systems which will most likely not be ready for traffic as soon as AionTube. Disturbing was asked to comment on these recent developments and this is what he offered:

Quote:

I am proud to be in partnership with Mark and my fellow friend, DJ, in bringing AionCast and AionTube together. We hope to get the design for both sites finished and get a server that we can use until we start getting hits on the site. The more people that use our site for watching videos, reading to blogs, or listening to podcasts will allow us to generate revenue to buy a stronger and better dedicated server. This will benefit the community by allowing us to host shoutcast server(s) with volunteer DJâ€™s and live podcasts throughout the week, teamspeak server(s), and overall, being able to do anything and everything possible on the web if itâ€™s requested. If anyone has any ideas or comments please feel free to e-mail myself @ joseph@hypersven.com or Mark.

I'd like to stress that AionTube and AionCast.com are group efforts and not something I alone am creating. Many people, some of which you AionSource.com members may have never met, will have a hand in the creation of AionTube and AionCast.com, but Aion fans will always be our target audience. We'll do our best for you. Let us know what you think. If you have any profound ideas, we'll be glad to hear them!

Sounds great. I'd love to help in any way i can. Not sure what i could do mind. Perhaps help with funding and moderating. Just give me a holla if you need anything.

Yakuzan · 10-08-2007, 07:05 PM

Good stuff, cannot wait.

Swati · 10-08-2007, 07:28 PM

WONDERFUL ideah!!!!

I would like to see each class have it's on video sections, Priest section, Warrior section, ect.

Kimino Sage · 10-08-2007, 08:21 PM

Sounds like a brilliant idea. I too would like to help if you need a volunteer for anything. I can't do anything to amazing but every little bit helps. Good luck and good job guys.

Cynthe · 10-08-2007, 08:27 PM

Will definately be keeping an eye on this hope it all goes well

Actually, if anyone happens to be a very amazing flash worker it could possibly benefit us greatly at this point, and if you just so happen to be that person hit me up with a message on here.

Disturbing · 10-09-2007, 12:54 AM

Yeah. Can't wait to get this thing rolling. Give it time and I bet you will all enjoy it as much as we will running it. My brother and I plan on doing the podcast with 2 - 3 other people. If anyone thinks that they have the personality to talk weekly to the world about Aion make sure to give me an e-mail.

We will take moderators in the future, but atm, none will be needed. In the future we will be requesting DJ's. So keep an eye out on that if you have a lust for DJin` online.

If anyone wants to help support the idea, just donate to Mark and or buy a membership on aionsource.com. It's going to cost 169$ a month to get the main server, but we will be running off of a sponsor's server until we reach that goal.

I feel like 1/5th of a proud parent. You've got my support for what it's worth. Let me know if there's anything you need a hand with. Also, I sent a small donation to Mark to help get started. I suggest all you thousands of Aion fanatics do the same so we can make this site our own and kickass.

Haven't been posting (it's a quiet time of the year again) but don't you worry, I always have an eye out in aionsource.

Hopefully both cast and tube turn out well

Gidion · 10-09-2007, 12:04 PM

Yeah sounds great

Hope all goes well

chaosdruid · 10-09-2007, 01:42 PM

You guys are so pumped about this game, you're starting a video upload site for it about half a year before it comes out. I love it.

BTW everyone who I've shown this game to wants to play it, so at least my old high school clique it'll be a big hit.

osric · 10-09-2007, 02:07 PM

sounds awesome! i'm looking forward to both sites
