Sounds like it won't affect most in this community. Just those who make glorified fragfests.

"Specifically, we are no longer going to allow game walk-throughs, game strategy videos, depictions of player vs player battles, raids, fraps, or any other video gaming videos that simply depict individuals playing a video game. Videos falling into this category will be subject to deletion as of September 1st; new videos of this type will be removed."

...

"2) I make Machinima films! It's not the same thing! Am I banned?

We currently do not feel that Machinima films fall under the category of gaming videos described above and, therefore, assuming compliance with our site's general terms & conditions, we will continue to accept such videos on Vimeo. We are not, at this time, banning films that fall into the Machinima genre."

Nice find GL2. I couldn't delve into it nor could I find the blog. At least it covers it up. Smile

Thumbs Up

Well, this will be a sure test to see IF our Flight Sim movies are truly accepted as being a legitimate part of the 'machinima' genre. The Vimeo guys in the announcement/blog also said this:
"The Vimeo staff does not feel that videos which are direct captures of video game play truly constitute "creative expression" [Note: Some users in the comments have effectively defended their work as creative. We apologize to those offended. Our decision remains for the other reasons]. Further, such videos may expose Vimeo to liability from the game creator(s), as we have already seen action from popular video game companies against videos such as these.
