The problem at YouTube was that some people were stripping the header and posting movies as non-tool-assisted. If credit is given and there's no attempt at deception, which is clearly the case here, I don't think it's a problem.
This is only my interpertation of the situation. Other people's may vary.

It says the following near the top of every movie page, though:
Reproduction of all material from this site is expressly forbidden for the following sites: SpikedHumor.com , YouTube.com.
smashmaniac, that user uploaded nearly 200 videos already.
Does that mean it's "okay" for him to upload movies that are forbidden on Youtube? Did he get a special clearance from Bisqwit or something..?
I think they should be removed ... unless Bisqwit is okay with these videos being there.

And it's my intended interpretation too.
I see then, it's more logical interpreted that way. But in this case I find it strange to mention SpikedHumor.com and YouTube.com, as it seems that the "it's a TAS made by X" rule should be followed by everybody that hosts some kind of material of NESvideos, and not only those 2 websites.
I therefore suggest to change the warning to something less confusing and more general, like:
"Reproduction of all material from this site is expressly forbidden, unless it clearly states that it is a tool-assisted speedrun, gives credit for the original author of the speedrun, and has a reference to the NESvideos front page."
Or if the previous one is too long:
"Reproduction of all material from this site is expressly forbidden, unless the original header of the video is clearly stated in its integral form."
It would also avoid posts such as the one I did previously at the same time. ;)

Wait wait, so is it bad that I uploaded MY video of A Boy and His Blob on YouTube? I just wanted to load it so I could get the source and put it on my L337 MySpace page.
Is this wrong?
Is there certain things that I need to mention. I WILL give a link to this site if you would like.
Change my sig. again, and I will murder your pet fish.

Youtube and Spikedhumor are mentioned by name, as they have been the source of prior problems with the movies posted with headers stripped and no link back to nes/tasvideos
How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.
