Guide for getting new TMNT episodes from IRC
 

Ok since many people have been asking, I decided to make a thread about it.[I whould apreciate if one of the general mods would sticky this]
[...]
If you have any questions, Please do ask, Im happy to help!

[Edit: Sorry, Karpo, I had to remove part of your post (and a couple of replies). Please see my reply on page 2 of this thread. --Krang]

Yeah, I noticed. But, the tmnt-files site did say you were moving.

I updated the news. As for now, we are staying. The changes on server shouldn't affect us, but if they do, then we will move.

Karpo you are a fantastic person!!! Thank you so much for the guide on how to get files.

*Off to sing his praises in the middle of the street*


MWA!!!!

dude karpo, i don't think we should keep doing this, we don't want krang to get in trouble, his site could get shut down for talking about this stuff... I think the general public knows about the cahns already, no need to go overboard..

There is nothing illegal in it. Besides, we have had IRC related topic here for a long time.

No problem. There are many people to whom downloading is the only option.

Umm except the fact the downloading episodes IS illegal.... especially the new toon. It's very illegal karpo, I know there have been threads before this, but now with the new toon, the execs are going to start checking these types of sites, they do with www.he-man.org all the time. Thetechnodrome could get in a lot of trouble, and i think it best if we just stopped making new threads. No offense or anything but i'm just saying...
btw #Ninja-turtles is not my channel, it's everyones channel... I mean everyone is welcome, sure i founded it, but where would i be if no one joined? I really think of it as a branch of 80s-cartoons since they really help bring in people.
ttyl :)

The episodes are free on TV, this is totally diffrent from IE DVD rips. I really doubt there will be any problems. I mean TMNT-files has it's own forums, and discussion is not illegal. Neither is posting guides how to get shared files. Krang should not in any case have any problems. But of course if he decided to ban Filesharing as a topic here, I will respect his decision.

actually it's quite illegal in many ways...
Why do you think so many sites say you shouldn't talk about this sort of thing. Here are a few reasons
1. you don't own it, or the rights to it
2. What if they were to come out on dvd, and u were sharing them that no one wanted them. It's actually tremendously illegal, just not as much as you said dvd rips. If i were you i would keep a low profile on the channel. You do the #tmnt-files site isn't as mainstream as this one. I mean you have like 99 members to the forums...

That forum has 99 members, and Like I said, it is Krangs decicion.

I changed it to 99, and yes it is krangs decision.

hey Karpo cant thank you enough. But when I put !list nothing happens

Hmm... That is weird. If you come to channel see if I can help you out.

thanks, Im there

I hope that helped!

it did thanks a ton

Stickied!!!

what server? :(

Im using X-Chat since mIRC crashed my laptop...what do i do?

Im not familiar with that software, but the servers is [...].

[Edit: See below. --Krang]

I can't find the [...] server, the closest seems to be [...].
Any ideas?

[Edit: See below. --Krang]

Ok, ignore that I'm in!!! THANK YOU KARPO!!!!!!!!!

But there is no one else here and when I type "!list" all I get is "<Chris> !list" in the main window instead of the list of servers shown in Karpo's guide, and help? Probably just have to wait until others are online, but since I've not used this before I just want to be sure I've not made a mistake.

Actually, I would prefer if people would discuss how to download the new episodes off these forums, or at least through private messages. I allowed the discussion of downloading the original cartoon's episodes because they haven't been shown in the US in years, they're not on DVD, MWS doesn't exist anymore, and Artisan isn't doing anything with their rights to the show. But the companies behind the new cartoon are making money off the episodes, and they would probably go after sites that contain instructions on how to download the episodes. So please don't post about how to download the new episodes. I don't want to lose the site or get into legal trouble over a cartoon I don't even like. :P

OK, sorry about that Krang

Well guiding people how to use IRC is allowed I figure. It isn't just a place to ge illegal material, but all kinds. So I hope I can still help people with their questions! So the guide is not just for getting Illegal material, So can I repost it? If not, then people if you want to read it PM me.

No problem. Glad I could help!

Just readed the whole thread after pwdesai told me about this (thx ^^ )
I was going to say that since you're paying cable you can tape a show which you technically paid for ( i'm guessing the same rule apply to divx copies ) then distribution of the new episodes should be fine untill there is a DVD release of it...however now that i readed krang's post i think it might've hurt future dvd sales...or it might not :ohwell: whatever might be the case, i got yer point, no talking about downloading the new toon, right? :P Well then i agree with it, i dun' wanna see this board get in trouble either.
I must get in that irc server '[...]' everyone is talking about, seems like one helluva server :P :P :P :P
You don't like the toon? :| The new one?or the old one?Or both? >_<

Yeah, well if you people have any questions, PM me.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'll surely buy a DVD if its released and to heck with any other format.

Of course So will I. It would be cool to have the new show on DVD. Let's hope it gets popular enough so that Might happen!

If it doesn't have any instructions on how to get to a channel that serves episodes of the new cartoon, you can repost it.
:lol:
I'm not a fan of the Mirage comics, so I don't like the new cartoon (no offense to anyone who does, of course). The old cartoon always has been and always will be my favorite TMNT universe.

Allright, I will instruct people trough PM then.

Krang, I've never read the original Mirage series in my life, yet I love this new toon :P

My thoughts
 

While the TV shows are free to air, you to have to have rights to republish them...even in schools believe it or not! (Teachers can get fined for showing movies and taped broadcasts to classes...although I don't know of any who have.)

However, few people do. Its okay to tape...but not okay to mass distribute... that's hasn't really stopped anyone.

However, I do think the good people at mirage and other organizations surrounding the turtles will not have a huge problem...(though discussion should be done in private e-mails and on file transfer sites like Imesh, Kaza...and so on.) I don't think they will because it promots their show....it helps spred the word...and for a new show (though not a new idea) it never hurts.

Plus I'm pretty sure that they realize most of us go out and buy the products they do produce ie Toys, Comics, DVDs of films and the like.

My thoughts are: spred the show...but do so discreatly.

Yeah. Well Anyone who want's to see my guide to IRC can PM me.

Karpo - Can we have discussions on this topic in the channel forum??
I've made a post over there.

Good idea.

wait... the channel's back??? :o :o :o :thyper: I'm so happy!!! I don't know how this is illegal though.

Back? It has never been gone...

Ah i see...heh, i'm not a big fan of em eitherso i'd choose the old toon over this one anytime...i still like the new toon tho.
Yah i see your point...if noone will probably arrest you for giving a tape of a show he payed for with his cable thing or whatever to a friend, then the same might apply to divx copies i guess, but the 'net is kinda different in some ways, as there's no way of knowing they payed for cable and stuff (not that it really matters to me :roll: but you know..) and most importantly in places such as forums the info stays online, real life is more 'discreet' as you've put it (Unless you go running around the street shouting "HAR IM GIVING OUT COPIES OF TAR NINGA TORTLEZ EPESOEDS!" and wave your tapes in the face of a cop, but chances are he'll think you're nuts instead of arresting you.)
Well then i guess as long as we keep it discreet and off this boards we'll be fine :)
(P.S: Mirage if you're reading this (Riiiiiiiiight... :) ) dont sue me KTHXBYE, if i had any money i wouldn't be downloading your stuff, duh :sweatdro: and if i had it i would've probably spent it in the great products you've put out as i can't see many other things that deserve spending my money on other than tmnt.
Of course, that companies like yours DONT RELEASE THE MOVIE DVDS AMONGST MANY (Emphasis on many. :p ) OTHER THINGS IN MY COUNTRY DOESN'T HELP EITHER! ;) )
Yes it is =D it never quite has been gone actually :anime:
It is illegal as it infringes in copyright laws but i think companies that own the tmnt rights have been turning a blind eye on stuff like this as i bet it doesnt affect them too much (And that is something i truly respect, it shows they dont lose their time by bugging their fans...like *coff*MPAA*coff*.)
I'll try to cease distribution of the episodes when they are released on dvd, it seems right after the companies have let us keep the channel going on for so long...i can't however scan every single fserver thought so i could only put a warning somewhere in the channel topic and trust servers will accept, if they don't then they might get in trouble and rightfully so (chances are they'll get the WHOLE channel in trouble though :sweatdro: but in that case *i* might deserve it for not being able to monitor my channel well enough...sigh, i dunno, when the moment comes i'll see what i can do :) )
You BET i will, problem is companies haven't really paid attention to my country as for tmnt dvds goes, none of the movies have been released in argentina as far as i know and that bugs me because the only other place i can turn to is piracy (or importing, but i'm sorry, i don't have that much money, let alone i dunno how to buy from the net and seems kinda risky to me.)
But i'm almost sure they will bring the new tmnt show to fox kids latinamerica, if they happen to release merchandising or such because of this, you bet i'll be supporting them!

They are probably not coming to here either, So I will need to buy them international. If they ever get released that is.

it was never gone? what about what the page said? at radixpub.com/tmntfiles? it said something about it being "illegal" and the sharing had to be stopped? i read that dangit!!! Don't toy with me!!! lol... but i know what i read... I'm so confrused.
