  • DragonHeartstring Couple of things id like to ask please Jom1/ Can you please clear up the troll negs on my reviews so far. Literally, i got 3 from nowhere on my Elision Of Animus one (it had either 5/5 or 6/6 and now it has 6/9 i think,, all three came within 30 seconds of each other aswell.) I asked dev to fix them but obviously given how much of a twat i was Dev wouldnt fix em.2/ Please can you read the 4 reviews of the new Demi Lovato album that i did and consider 1 for a feature? It genuinely is great
    May 20 11:55 AM
  • ViralOblivion Thank you so much
    May 18 11:45 PM
  • ViralOblivion Could I remove the oblivion part and just have my name as Viral?
    May 18 09:53 PM
  • DragonHeartstring Jom, is Dev even technically allowed to permanently ban me for NOTHING (which he admitted he did)?
    May 14 05:36 PM
  • conesmoke Hey Jom, cheers for fixing up that band profile for me. Unfortunately i'm still unable to upload the album to the profile page. The album is called 'This Must Be Make Believe"
    April 29 10:50 PM
  • SgtPepper Just wanted to say thanks for the avatar. It looks great. Thank you.
    April 27 11:56 PM
  • conesmoke Hey Jom, Just wondering if you can help me out with putting up a band profile? the band is 'Lepers and Crooks'. I accidentally created multiple profiles on sputnik, and none of them will allow me to add their first LP. Thanks.
    April 27 10:43 PM
  • porch would appreciate an unbanning of this account, it's been a few years: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/user/GlueyPorch
    April 27 09:44 AM
  • Brostep Hey Jom - just warning you that I may want to post two reviews on Monday. They're both of albums I've gotten an advance download of on Muzik Dizcovery, but since neither comes out until then I won't be able to post the review of them till Monday. One's done already and the other one I should be able to do tomorrow, so just letting you know. If this isn't OK I'll just post one late Sunday and one Monday instead. Thanks!
    April 27 08:08 AM
  • HSThomas Thanks for the help yesterday Jom. Sorry about being a bit of a dick towards you in the past.
    April 27 05:08 AM
  • SgtPepper Sorry, i thought i'd ask if you were cool with doing it first before getting my hopes up and settling on a name. Waste of text upon reflection, im sorry man. But anyway, i'd like Lazarus or SgtPepper if the first is taken. I checked on google to see if any users had those names before asking and nothing came up, so i assume no one has them. Thanks for your time, jom.
    April 21 03:50 PM
  • SgtPepper Hey Jom. I couldn't help notice that you've been helping users change their usernames lately, and I was wondering if you could change mine as well. I know this question is best fit for the forums, but I thought I'd ask if it was okay before officially requesting it there. If you're busy or are annoyed with everyone bothering you about this, I'll understand completely and live with being paperback.
    April 21 05:47 AM
  • GiaNXGX ugh, this please http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/56410/Opeth-Blackwater-Park/, thread is turning sour.
    April 19 09:16 PM
  • Atari Cheers : )
    April 17 07:23 PM
  • Atari i'm speechless thanks so much for this opportunity i know it's just a tag but it means a lot to me and i can't wait to write my first review as contributor :)
    April 17 06:57 PM
  • Atari damn lol. and i'm obviously kidding but if there's anything I can do that would help me move up the ladder to contributor please let me know
    April 17 05:27 PM
  • Atari make me staff so i can rate in .1 incriments ;)
    April 17 04:50 PM
  • sixdegrees hi jom, could I trouble you to my ratings please?
    April 17 10:10 AM
  • Insurrection http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/54397/The-Contortionist-Shapeshifter/http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/35853/Krakatoa-Channel-Static-Blackout/http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/53401/Deadmau5-The-Veldt/That's it for now. Thanks again jom
    April 13 12:41 AM
  • Insurrection Oh no it would only be about 4-5 max. Just a few I feel were very sloppily written and I would like to possibly rewrite in the future. I guess ill send over one a week to your email if that's convenient. Thanks again
    April 11 04:15 AM
  • Insurrection Thanks and I completely understand that. Time to go back to my lowly user privileges. One more question, can mods d elete user reviews if they're just not happy with them? Because I have a few reviews I find awful now and id rather they be gone
    April 11 12:07 AM
  • Insurrection Hey jom, hate to be that guy again but is there a chance you can see if ive been troll rated by someone? My approval rating dropped by like 6% the past couple days. If not i understand, not a big deal and i know how annoying these requests are.
    April 10 01:27 AM
  • fish. Thanks
    April 8 08:58 PM
  • Brostep Awesome. Could you change my name to "Brostep" then? Thanks in advance!
    April 8 09:17 AM
  • Brostep Hey Jom - I've been thinking about staffers who have issues with my username, but I've come to be known as "Brostep" on Sputnik so I'm keeping that part of my name intact. Would staffers prefer "Brostep" or "BrostepIsDead"? I'm fine with both and I don't really want to piss anybody off.
    April 7 01:33 PM
  • fish. I'm gonna be a real pain but could it be possible to lowercase the "F" and change the "?" to a period please? Last request, I promise
    April 6 04:21 PM
  • VulturesMA How can I submit albums for review?contact@bondbrothersentertainment.com
    April 5 11:07 PM
  • fish. If you can't put question marks in usernames
    April 5 09:04 PM
  • fish. Could you change it to "Fish?" then please? Or if that isn't possible, "thisisthefish"
    April 5 09:03 PM
  • XGX Hey man, I'm sorry for the inappropiate behaviour (fa* word) showcased on my main account, and promise it will never happen again. unban me plz, learned my lesson already.
    April 5 06:39 PM
  • fish. is it? damn, I thought that if you changed the user page url you could check which ones were already taken
    April 5 03:34 PM
  • Mookid Hey Jom, I was wondering if I could get a name change from Mookid to NoHardFeelings. Is that possible? That'd be sweet but if you can't then that's fine
    April 5 01:02 PM
  • evilford cheers bro m/
    April 3 09:41 PM
  • evilford hey Jom what's up dude. can you wipe my ratings please? would be much appreciated.

    April 2 11:46 PM
  • SlitYourGuts Can you frogstomp the s*** out of breakingthefragile and then write "April Fool's bitch" in the Banned Users thread?
    April 1 04:58 PM
  • Jacquibim Jom, blacktheripper is skele, hey?
    April 1 11:22 AM
  • breakingthefragile Yeah, I'm still a bit tentative about it, but if I do decide to go through with a prank, I'll be sure to make it a pretty obvious joke of a review.
    March 31 03:53 PM
  • breakingthefragile Great, thanks Jom. Was just asking permission to make sure I wouldn't be breaking some code of conduct that pertains to my contrib position or anything like that lol.
    March 31 02:32 AM
  • breakingthefragile Would it be alright if I did a troll review for April Fools' Day?
    March 30 09:27 PM
  • Kris. i just automatically assume that anyone with less than 200 comments and no avatar is skele nowadays. sad state of affairs until he realizes that he's irrelevant now =/
    March 27 09:09 AM
  • Willie I didn't see any e-mails for an Amorphis promo. I did a search and still couldn't find it.
    March 22 07:01 PM
  • IpodMastery Hey dude, I left a question for you in the forums, 'Contrib' section, wasn;t sure you'd see it right away so here I am. Only asking cause the guy on the label likes advertising : ]
    March 20 07:07 AM
  • Willie The link is up if you just want to check it out.
    March 19 10:48 AM
  • Willie If you like The Red Paintings, check the review request area (or the official e-mail).
    March 18 09:10 PM
  • Metalstyles Much love
    March 18 06:41 AM
  • ThroneOfAgony I have these accounts for back-up purposes mostly, along with me just wanting to start over entirely (with my ratings and reviews and such, like I did with the transition to ThroneOfAgony to Mookid). Mookid was my serious account and I've been banned.
    March 15 11:15 AM
  • ThroneOfAgony Hello Jom. Apparently, I'm banned on my account Mookid (for some reason), and would like an explanation as to why. No one has bothered to explain why, and it's somewhat annoying because I have no idea what I did. If you could write back then that'd be great. Thanks
    March 15 08:37 AM
  • ILJ Thanks Jom Bomb, your advice is much appreciated.
    March 10 07:06 PM
  • azninva5in Sorry to continually clog up the med thread with needless bickering. But I've wanted to ask, how does one make it to contributor level? (obviously i'd need to grow up a little and stop being baited by skele so easily, among other things)
    March 10 01:21 PM
  • mryrtmrnfoxxxy thanks for taking the time out of your days man for real
    March 8 03:32 AM
  • ILJ Sorry to bother you, but I wanted to ask you something. I'm going to try to make contributor when the next promotion cycle comes around, and I wanted to know how often you would suggest that I review. And how often should these be relatively new releases? Any tips that you could give would be very helpful, and much appreciated. No hurry on the response either.
    March 6 08:00 AM
  • Atari Okay well I'll just consider that feedback and will work on being more patient!
    March 5 11:09 PM
  • andcas thank you so much. if it happens again just give me a 99% boost like aids : )
    March 5 10:53 PM
  • Atari I guess it has only been a few days I just really care about my writing and I get giddy sometimes sorry :(
    March 5 10:43 PM
  • Atari My bad Jom didn't want to seem impatient... not expecting a promotion just really looking forward to suggestions on how I can improve my writing.
    March 5 10:30 PM
  • andcas so now my approval rating went from a 91 to a 78 after some alt in the meds thread named geddylee blamed being banned on negging me. believe me when I say I'm about as sick of this today as I'm sure you are having to deal with it. I'm only asking you to please help me out here because you see what happened when doing so elsewhere. I'll never understand why certain troublemakers try to make it such an insufferable time for others who are merely trying to be productive users on this site.
    March 5 08:54 PM
  • Atari hey Jom do you have any idea when i can expect to hear some feedback from staff about my writing? Not trying to sound impatient i'm just asking out of curiousity.
    March 5 03:57 PM
  • andcas whoever is doing it is still at it every time you change it so I'm afraid it's a lost cause unless someone bans them but even then I'd doubt it'd stop so oy vey my friend.
    March 5 03:42 PM
  • andcas I just figured it was them since they're harassing me about actually reporting problems. I'd expect charlie sheen to drop the coke habit before they act like legitimate users. I do appreciate you helping and I'm sorry that others can't stop making things hard.
    March 5 03:29 PM
  • andcas kill and darth, as usual, are undoing what you helped fix with troll negs.
    March 5 03:18 PM
  • Graveyard Shall my ban be lifted from the forums? Sputnikcore is no more.
    March 5 01:22 AM
  • Atari Hey Jom if you didn't already present those 3 reviews I gave you to the staff I'd rather have you show them my new review Senses Fail - The Fire than the Jawbox -self titled. If you already showed them then just disregard this message and sorry I don't mean to be a pain I just decided that jawbox isn't exactly my most exciting review and i'm really happy with the new senses fail review. It's not perfect, but I tried to get more creative and approach it from a different angle. thanks
    March 2 03:33 PM
  • Insurrection Oh okay, well the three I would pick are The Ocean - Aeolian, Periphery - Periphery (Instrumental), and Between the Buried and Me - The Parallax II. I feel like i put the most effort in those and I'm sure they could use some improvements. Thanks!
    March 2 12:44 AM
  • Insurrection Alright I'm guessing i missed something so whats up with people linking you reviews, are you doing more contrib/staff promotions?
    March 1 08:05 PM
  • Atari Okay Jom here are the 3 reviews I decided on.... Jawbox -Self Titled, Cannibal Corpse - Butchered at Birth, Silverstein - As The Wind Shifts. I know some of the staff may have possibly read the silverstein review already but it seems to be my most well received review. Looking forward to any suggestions on how I can improve my writing thanks again I appreciate it!
    February 28 04:00 PM
  • breakingthefragile Sorry for the late response, I'll link you three reviews:http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/55331/KMFDM-Kunst/http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/54939/Misfits-DEA.D.-ALIVE!/http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/55079/Modestep-Evolution-Theory/Where will the chat be taking place? The forums? Thanks again Jom.
    February 28 03:53 PM
  • skeletorissatan Also since Im banned on the forums, i'll ask you here, any chance of a feature on this? http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=556092
    February 28 03:10 PM
  • skeletorissatan I know, I wasnt saying id do it because I want the contrib spot, I was saying Id do it because Im serious about being just a good user now.
    February 28 03:06 PM
  • Atari Okay bear with me while i pick out 3 of my favorite reviews!
    February 28 02:55 PM
  • Atari I'd prefer to pick 3 reviews myself for you to read (mostly because some of my older one's aren't as good). Do you want me to just link them to your shoutbox? thanks for getting back to me
    February 28 02:39 PM
  • skeletorissatan All this stuff will probably come tomorrow though Jom. Also is there a chance that you can approve that Demi Lovato news thing haha (: I think Demi deserves more attention on this site lol.
    February 28 02:35 PM
  • skeletorissatan I will also be linking you stuff I've reviewed twice etcetera so you can them, and I'll provide you with the names of all my alts later (I have multiple emails and IPs so you probably wont have them all listed), so you can disable them. Like I said, from now on I'm just being a good user. I've made a total tool of myself on this site recently man, and I feel a cock because I actually like this site (hence my erm refusal to move haha).
    February 28 02:34 PM
  • skeletorissatan Alright Jom, thank you. And no, I dont want to keep an alt I've decided, im happy with just using Skele, I'll probably copy a few reviews over to this account slowly, since Itll take forever to get them all over, I will have a few links for you to later, as soon as I decide what reviews on Skele are absolutely awful (COUGh avenged sevenfold selftitled COUGH) lol and will rewrite them at some point since my opinions have changed massively on a lot of stuff.
    February 28 02:33 PM
  • Atari hey Jom with all the talk about ghost promo's and the fact that you seem to be in a good mood today, i'm just curious if you think i have a shot for the future? If there's something I can work on whether it's my writing or my behavior please let me know and i'm willing to put forth the effort to improve!
    February 28 02:32 PM
  • skeletorissatan I know its asking a lot Jom but now im unbanned, please consider me for a ghost promotion to contrib I applied fair and square, and review more than any other user-over 350 on all accounts, can provide links to all accounts i reviewed on if you want. Im going to be a good user. So please consider it. I know its a lot to ask and i have no chance
    February 28 10:35 AM
  • DillingerEscaped Thak you so much Jom it says in your med thread you are allowed 2 as a maximum accounts so can i please have one account remained (you know the one since its all over main page, and its not this one either), just as a backup for comments sincei quite like noone knowinng who i am. I swear Ill be good
    February 28 09:53 AM
  • DillingerEscaped this site, and I just want to review and s*** like I used to just post a review a day. I want to go back to reviewing and very little commentin. I dont know if you remember my early days on this site when I just posted a review a day and maybe 1 or 2 comments, but that's exactly what I would like to return to. Please man. If you were to unban me it would not be a mistake, because I can be trusted. I was DirtBagDan everyone knows that now, and look at how nice I was on that account?
    February 28 07:14 AM
  • DillingerEscaped You're partially right and partially wrong, Jom. Its Skele btw. You have gave me chances on other accounts, but you have never once unbanned an account of mine to my knowledge. You said to ask Deviant about my Skeletor alt well Dev hasnt been on in about a month or certainly not active so that is kind of hard, its 1 month since my ban should have been lifted so please unban me on Skeletor-that account should have been unbanned 1st Feb. I really do apologise for all the s*** i've caused on
    February 28 07:13 AM
  • Metalstyles If you could look at my P.O.D - Murdered Love, Mechina - Empyrean and Fractal Gates - Beyond The Self reviews and give some critique based on those three (whether you dissect the reviews individually or give overall criticism concerning my writing doesn't matter), that would be very much appreciated (oh and I picked those three because imo they exhibit three different styles of approach). Once again, thanks in advance!
    February 28 03:47 AM
  • breakingthefragile (Continued from last my post) staff level without even realizing I am. Since you stayed on top of the promotions discussion between staff, that is if it?s not confidential information, I was wondering if you?d be willing to share exactly what staff is looking for from me, and what they think I need to better myself in as a writer to join staff. Thanks for your time.
    February 28 01:12 AM
  • breakingthefragile Hey Jom, I don?t mean to sound conceited in any way when I inquire about this, but I was reflecting on how I didn?t get a promotion to staff this time around, and I have been thinking about how I can ask the members of staff about what they would like to see me improve upon as a reviewer in order for me to someday aquire the status. You know, general feedback and stuff like that. It?s just that I don?t want to continue reviewing while making the same mistakes that prevented me from achieving
    February 28 01:12 AM
  • Funkenstein any insight as to why my main account's ban mysteriously got extended from 1 week to 2 years?
    February 27 11:20 PM
  • wabbit Yo Jom. I don't know how much control you have over s*** but you guys seem to really be pushing for a higher standard on the site. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=17883This is imo the best run forum on the internet. When starcraft 2 was released we got a huge influx of young, awful new users yet with the moderation and by having a more rigid system they have been able to cut down on most of the bulls***. Thought you might be interested.

  • carouse Thank you!
    February 27 07:05 PM
  • Kris. dude i dunno i kinda like this one. i'm like THE RONFATHER
    February 27 12:45 AM
  • Kris. by the way, thank you! i am but a lowly user, but now i know that i have truly made it on sputnikmusic.
    February 26 11:46 PM
  • SAPoodle Please consider my review of Olafur Arnalds' "For Now I Am Winter" for featuring. Thanks for your assistance!
    February 26 07:12 PM
  • SAPoodle Hey Jom. How does a review get featured? What is the criteria and how would I go about it? I'm sure I saw somewhere that you have to request for your review to be featured? Thanks a tonne.
    February 26 08:48 AM
  • Days of Future Passed Thanks for the name change!
    February 25 06:30 PM
  • AtomicWaste Alright, thanks man. I'll keep pluggin' away.
    February 25 12:33 PM
  • Metalstyles I've been a contributor for nearly 3 years now, so something is obviously holding me back. Like I promised in my application, I am not irked or severely disappointed that I didn't get promoted, but I would like to up my writing to the next level and seeing as how you're a great writer and a teacher, I'd very much appreciate if you took the time to critique my work a bit. Thanks in advance!
    February 25 06:34 AM
  • Metalstyles Hello Jom. I was wondering if I could ask you a favor. As a writer, I'm currently stuck in a rut in the sense that I am a good enough reviewer so that people have stopped giving me constructive criticism, but (obviously haha) not yet good enough to be a staff writer. What I ask of you is to, if you can find the time, read one or two of my latest reviews and give me some pointers as to what I should improve upon, or if you are already familiar with my work, tell me what is holding me back.
    February 25 06:27 AM
  • Days of Future Passed Ah, that explains it. I'd like my name changed to Days of Future Passed, if possible. Thanks man.
    February 24 11:04 PM
  • Romulus i will not let you down sir.
    February 24 05:12 PM
  • AtomicWaste Jom, I know the big thing's been "behavior" in keeping people back from contrib, but did anyone say that there's something I particularly need to work on? I've been going at this for over 4 years and I know my writing's pretty good (always room for improvement, of course) and I know I'm not the community asshole. I just want to know what I need to focus on to get there. I'll keep writing, but I've been doing just that for a long time, so I feel like I'm missing something.
    February 24 12:40 PM
  • CaptainDooRight hey bro, you think I have a chance of contrib given my past goof ups? I have 86 revs and 94% approval. Not that that fully matters. But I've been thinking about getting back into writing. Was just curious if I'd be wasting my time?
    February 24 12:17 PM
  • Days of Future Passed Hey Jom, I'm trying to change my username but I'm having a little trouble. I changed my current user title but the change isn't registering on my profile page. Any suggestions as to what I should do?
    February 24 10:59 AM
  • andcas I heard a ton of people had issues with the 7th season but I totally thought it was hilarious and the criticism should've been saved for the 8th which was sorta weak to me.
    February 24 09:43 AM
  • andcas since you're really into always sunny how did you feel about the last season?
    February 24 07:31 AM
  • Brostep Thanks a ton! I'll think about it - to be honest I chose that name in the first place almost sarcastically, and it's grown on me a lot. I'll try to find something more acceptable though.
    February 24 05:47 AM
  • Aids right on, thanks for the reply
    February 24 03:04 AM
  • SgtPepper Thank you... for everything.
    February 24 01:40 AM
  • AngelofDeath Hey, why am I a jerk, haha?
    February 24 01:15 AM
  • SgtPepper Well, thank you very much for the promotion. I'll get off my ass and start pumping out more new releases. And on a related note, I've had a review for the new Steve Wilson album done for weeks and I've just been waiting for a stream to pop up so I can upload it, but now that I'm a staff member am I free to upload it now or do I still have to wait? (Sorry if I seem impatient, I'm a big fan of his.)
    February 24 01:15 AM
  • Trebor17 Thank you very much
    February 24 01:13 AM
  • SgtPepper Thanks for the response, but it seems like it got taken down. For some reason the album is no longer showing up on the spotify stream library. I guess there must have been some trouble with the record company or something. Thanks though.
    February 23 12:45 AM
  • SgtPepper Hey Jom, does spotify count as an eligible stream source for albums that haven't been released yet? I have a review that I finished, but spotify seems to be the only place streaming it. I know it's legal, but I dont know how you guys feel about it so I thought I'd get your permission before doing anything.
    February 22 03:15 PM
  • Omaha I've been working on a massive poll, featuring all the results from our little group. If a lot of contribs use it, I'll send it your way eventually, maybe via e-mail or something along those lines.
    February 14 04:18 PM
  • bach Could I trouble you to remove the "96" in my username? Thanks, man.
    February 12 06:39 PM

    February 10 01:49 PM
  • johnnydeking29 Hey, I was wondering when you'll be done choosing the new contribs/staff (I don't mean to sound impatient, only curious)
    February 10 04:34 AM
  • breakingthefragile lol Cheers Jom.
    February 6 11:16 PM
  • breakingthefragile Never Mind, figured it out.
    February 6 08:24 PM
  • breakingthefragile Hey Jom, I was wondering, how do I make links in the forums? I tried using the "[ A ] [ / A ]" thing already, and it didn't work. I'm just trying to figure out how to do it for the 3 review links on my staff application, thanks.
    February 6 07:23 PM

  • ViralOblivion Hey can you wipe my ratings? Thanks
    February 2 02:15 PM
  • Ignimbrite Thanks!

  • Ignimbrite As long as I keep all my ratings and my current username etc etc, I'm digging the idea, largely because having 56 more reviews attributed to me sounds pretty sweet. One little caveat, however: the reason I ditched the old account in the first place was because it had a ton of problems (e.g. my join date/last active date is perpetually 1969, I couldn't upload an avatar, etc). If these issues won't carry over and only the reviews/comments/stats will, then I'm all game for it. Thanks!
    February 2 02:25 AM
  • Ignimbrite Well, I wouldn't mind having the reviews on the old one attributed to this one... What exactly would a merge mean? It's probably a dumb question, but yeah. For example, I'd still have this username, right? Thanks for fielding all my questions and for even offering in the first place!

  • Calc Scratch that I fixed it. My bad
    February 1 03:25 PM
  • Insurrection Cheers!
    February 1 12:29 PM
  • Insurrection Hey Jom, hate to bother you again but is it possible to unban Insurrection from the forums if I decide to submit a contributor application? Or should I just submit it under an alt and it'll still go through?
    February 1 12:04 PM
  • Kris. haha dude i'm kidding. i've come to terms with the fact that i'll never mod here but that's ok! you guys do fine work as it is.
    February 1 02:03 AM
  • Voivod Jom hi, in the post about the opening of new staff/contrib position, it is written that the deadline is on Friday, February 9th, 2013. According to my windows 7 calendar, Friday comes on February 8. Please check it out, in case my windows 7 calendar is tripping in some way.

  • Gyromania Thank you! I just noticed (I guess this was just very timely) about 10 minutes after sending that message that I was demoted. But it looks like I'm a contributor again lol. I've actually never really looked at the contrib forum closely, but I'll make my way to it. Thanks again for your patience and understanding.
    February 1 01:48 AM
  • Gyromania Hey Jom. Just wanted to leave a post letting you know that I'm making a return to reviewing regularly. I have nothing on the horizon at the moment, so I'm going to focus my efforts on contributing more to the site. Sorry again that it's been a while since I've posted anything, but I assure you I have reviews on the way and you can expect to see a lot more from me this year. Cheers
    February 1 01:21 AM
  • WeepingBanana Hey Jom, just letting you know I got the CDs. Thanks again!
    January 31 01:20 AM
  • wabbit Jom buddy. Can I get my name changed to rabbit or rabbit. or wabbit if those are taken. HEARTS
    January 29 08:34 PM
  • SgtPepper I'll step up my game. Thanks, Jom.
    January 29 12:08 AM
  • SgtPepper I cant say I'd complain if that day came lol. But thanks for clearing that up. Hopefully I can get a few of the albums I want to write about.
    January 28 08:42 PM
  • SgtPepper Thanks, Jom. But one more thing. Say I do get an album and review it. Can I submitted it right away, or do I still have to wait for the release/stream date? (Just so I know)
    January 28 06:31 PM
  • RetroSpective Hey Jom if you don't mind can you check the meds thread, there's some fishiness going on in there
    January 28 01:34 PM
  • SgtPepper Hey Jom, does a contributor ever have the privilege to ask for a copy (digital or physical) of an album ahead of time like the Staff, or is that out of the question?
    January 28 02:49 AM
  • Kris. Thanks bud, you're the best!
    January 26 01:27 PM
  • Kris. hey, we've had this convo before and i'm not gonna ask in the mod thread just in case you make me look like an idiot (lets be honest, i am), but would it be possible for you to change my username one last time pretty pretty pretty please to Kris. ? i've grown old and weary (jesus tits i'm 21 now man) and it's time for a change. if not, that's cool, luv ya anyways.
    January 26 02:14 AM
  • Havey Is there anything I can do to make the number of band/album edits show up on my profile page? I want to see how much I've contributed!
    January 22 12:53 AM
  • Omaha Hello sir Jom! You asked me to remind you about my This Town Needs Guns review Sunday/Monday, so here you go. The album's coming out in the next couple days.http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/54421/This-Town-Needs-Guns-13.0.0.0.0/
    January 20 01:42 AM
  • Apollo I love you Jom!
    January 15 10:49 PM
  • IpodMastery Changes made tracklist is up
    January 13 05:50 PM
  • GiaNXGX hey jom, would you mind featuring my latest list? I think it's good and people would likely enjoy a lot of things I placed on it. http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=115529
    January 10 03:11 PM
  • hitman02011 Hey Jom, you think I can get your e-mail address? I have some questions that are probably too long to fit on the shoutbox
    January 8 09:28 PM
  • Mewcopa0 Oh ok haha, thanks!
    January 7 02:32 PM
  • Mewcopa0 Hey, I tried uploading an album and every time I'd upload the album art a white square comes up instead. The album are is on this page http://bulwarkband.bandcamp.com/album/excursion and this is the sputnik entry http://www.sputnikmusic.com/bands/Bulwark/42242/ any help would be great :P
    January 7 12:13 PM
  • Iluvatar did i not just review something! staff needs to up the punx a bit more
    January 6 02:48 AM
  • Iluvatar jom why did you disable my access to olympus =(
    January 5 02:37 PM
  • Tyrael Hey Jom I sent you a mail for the contest but I forgot which e-mail adress I used to register my account here :/ both my e-mail adresses include my full name (thomas retour) so I hope it's okay if I sent it from the other account...
    January 3 09:26 PM
  • RetroSpective Why the ratings wipe?
    December 28 02:34 AM
  • XGX Wipe my ratings.
    December 25 05:37 PM
  • IpodMastery Tracklist added and such man have at it.
    December 18 06:22 AM
  • RetroSpective Got it, the thing is I can't even find the album cause Retroactive was d eleted by the bug. I just don't want to upload it again, then the bug gets fixed and something gets messed up by the already existing page... if that makes sense. Anyway do you have an ETA on when everything's going to be fixed yet?
    December 17 11:19 PM
  • RetroSpective Btw do you still have the band info of the artists effected by the bug? Cause one of them was me (Retroactive) with only one EP and the tracklisting has changed since I uploaded it, so is it possible to just bypass the bug and d elete it then I reupload it with the correct info?
    December 17 11:05 PM
  • RetroSpective Hey Jom, a couple things. First of all I love you. Second I think I speak on behalf of all of Sputnik when I say that it was a much better site when you were the go-to mod :) But those days are over I guess... anyway Dev banned my original account hitman02011 for no reason and while Insurrection is banned I'd like to have that one back if possible. Thanks.
    December 17 05:36 PM
  • bakkermaarten007 Thanks a lot!
    December 16 07:32 AM
  • Voivod Some of the vBulletin code works in comments too, i.e. [b][/b], [i][/i] or [u][/u], but not all of them. However, as in the news article space and comment threads, not all commands are applicable. It would help if there was a list in the forum with the vBulletin code approved by mx.
    December 16 02:48 AM
  • Voivod It's not that I want you to check a particular article, it's just peculiar that some of the vBulletin code applies in the review site and some doesn't. If I have time, I will check what applies what doesn't in the news articles and the review comment threads and send you a list with direct correspondence to the code listed in https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/misc.php?do=bbcode
    December 16 02:12 AM
  • evilford hey Jom. for what it's worth, and what it matters here, I strongly disagree with both the reasoning behind sonic's banning, and the length of his banning. Not sure if it was all dev's decision or what, but I really urge you to reconsider/help dev reconsider banning sonic, and if nothing else, reconsider the ridiculous length of his banning. thanks.
    December 15 11:27 AM
  • Voivod For example, when I want to center the text in a news item or in a comment, i used the command [center][/center] command and the site did not recognize the command. I used the commands from the following url: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/misc.php?do=bbcode
    December 15 11:16 AM
  • Voivod Thanks in advance.
    December 14 05:36 AM
  • Voivod Jom hi, can you tell me what type of HTML code applies for the review site? I know that the vBulletin.org code applies for the forums, but some of it is not applicable for the review site.

  • klap If Tanner Jeremiah Weed had only known to take his mercury readings every so often, perhaps this tragedy could have been avoided.
    December 6 12:31 AM
  • mx Can you send me your current email?
    November 29 06:53 PM
  • IpodMastery Thanks man, I welcome the insight.
    November 29 06:55 AM
  • ViralOblivion Of course I did sorry about that :/ just ApexPredator
    November 28 04:42 PM
  • ViralOblivion Hey I never got that password for my alt account ApexPredator so can you it and ill just remake it?
    November 28 04:21 PM
  • Insurrection got it, thanks.
    November 28 03:15 PM
  • Insurrection oh, well recspecs threatened to d elete my 'profile' and i said its impossible, then all of a sudden my profile picture disappears. sometimes it shows up though, i guess it's just a coincidental bug. i just figured it was you since it happened at the perfect time hah, not a big deal though.
    November 28 03:00 PM
  • Insurrection you had to do it huh lol why are you taking his side!?!?!
    November 28 02:03 AM
  • gwynbleidd Woops, lol. I was going to edit somethings about a few Thrice's albums and I accidentally ended up adding another album. It has no name or anything of the sort, but please it when you get a chance(Though it has not been approved).
    November 26 11:49 AM
  • IpodMastery Hey man so you know of any promotions coming up? Love to be apart of the program.
    November 26 04:57 AM
  • OmairSh Hey Jom I posted a news article for Riverside (progressive band), and I it's being shown on the "progressive" section of the website but not on the main page. Is there any particular reason? Thanks
    November 22 03:23 PM
  • hankdee27 Hi, I'm new to this site, and this is just a general question. Over the time I have been on Sputnik, it appears that many seem to not like new users very much. What I mean is that other users will post comments like this, "this review ****ing sucks". I'm not going to call out any specific users, but I'm getting tired of posting, well anything, and getting negativity for no apparent reason, unless my writing really does suck that badly. Is this normal?
    November 20 11:02 PM
  • porch d elete this when you get a chance, thanks http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/48341/Unwound-Repetition/
    November 17 07:50 PM
  • ViralOblivion Ok cool thank you so much
    November 17 01:33 AM
  • ViralOblivion Hey Jom I was wondering if you could possibly wipe all my ratings and I made an alt in case I ever got banned but the password isn't working so I was also hoping you could look into that also the name is ApexPredator and thanks a lot
    November 16 08:58 PM
  • Insurrection very funny -______-
    November 16 01:27 PM
  • NightmareCinema16 Question: I know that the site rank tends to stay the same for a long time, but just how long does it usually take to itself?
    November 16 09:44 AM
  • ShadowRemains not sure about cross-publishing, but I probably will post some of my more recent ones on my blog, and/or start something else
    November 16 12:17 AM
  • ShadowRemains Hey Jom, you mind deleting my reviews? I'm going to post some of them (and any future ones) on another website from now on: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/user_reviews.php?memberid=434198
    November 15 10:35 PM
  • Insurrection Hey jom just wanted to say im sorry about flooding the meds thread lately. im not the one initiating this stuff btw, some guys just go insane over every little post i make. hopefully itll clear up soon, and if you want me to the unrelated posts id completely understand
    November 12 04:07 PM
  • 3nsurrection Alright, well thanks anyway.
    November 10 07:24 PM
  • Atari NO worries. I'm honestly done caring about negs it's pointless.
    November 10 06:02 PM
  • Recspecs Every time someone complains about troll negs, a child in Africa dies of HIV/AIDS.
    November 9 03:13 PM
  • Atari If you guys aren't gonna be fixing troll negs (which is one of the biggest issues on the site) then why not consider just doing away with the approval rating system?
    November 9 02:59 PM
  • Keyblade Hey Jom, can you help me out with a couple of album edits? The artwork I put up don't seem to be showing. It's for the new Aves, and Spheruleus albums. Thanks in advance.
    November 9 04:22 AM
  • BullshitAsUsual hmm, well thanks for the response!
    November 4 06:27 AM
  • BullshitAsUsual hey, sorry to annoy you and waste your time but the contact us link doesn't work (only for me?). I somehow can't write the word 'union' in a list although it's the name of the album and the album is on sputnik with the word tendered. the album is 'to this a sun was born' by substantial. can you fix that?
    November 3 10:00 PM
  • Gyromania hey jom. i just wanted to leave a comment regarding my lack of output and say sorry. i know i haven't written a review since my promotion, but i've been extremely busy with school and family-related issues as of late. however, school will be finished in a couple of weeks and i can assure you i'll be contributing reviews regularly. i'm aiming to have a couple up in the coming week.
    November 3 06:35 PM
  • Insurrection jom how come you dont post on reviews or review in general anymore? your sarcasm is desperately needed to spice things up.. plus youre a great reviewer
    November 1 02:02 AM
  • Voivod There are some blogspot sites who provide unofficial streams - I repeat streams NOT download links - to old records of '80s "classic" metal. My question is as follows: If I write a review for one of these records, can I provide the stream link to the discussion thread below? Thanks in advance for your feedback.
    October 30 11:56 AM
  • YoYoMancuso it was gone when i logged back on this morning. sorry to take up your time, just an odd coincidence.
    October 25 08:11 AM
  • YoYoMancuso hey jom, i was just permanently banned from the forums and it said "no reason was specified". can you do anything about that?
    October 24 08:39 PM
  • Insurrection hey jom what did i do to deserve this :(
    October 19 04:01 AM
  • Atari Hey man just wanted to say I don't mean to be annoying with the reporting in the forums. I'm just always on the site at work so I notice things. I'll try not to post as much.
    October 18 02:53 PM
  • LongJomSilver why almost and not totally
    October 14 02:10 PM
  • LongJomSilver Hey sup?
