eh, that's what i meant. i'm still unfamiliar with the ways of the mod

Riva, Jelle, Barkeep, Vince, etc.: I'm wondering if you guys want to re-vamp the rules a bit or not. Let's face it, while Steerpike's threads are still going strong, having an insanely long few posts (not helped with the lack of vBulletin code for URLs) isn't conducive... maybe condensing them down to one or two posts?

Maybe we should create a thread for important links, lock it and jsut link to that in the rules?

Well, I meant that we could have Riva's traffic light rules in the first post, and then have the important links in the second post. But really, the FA's, FG's, and a majority of the "theme" threads have pretty much died out, so it seems superfluous to have those linked, especially since it breaks the columns due to the lack of URL vBulletin code.

Just my two pennies, that's all =)

Might as well, most of those links are musicianforums ones anyway. And the Rules thread is very tl;dr, yes.

The songwriting comp and RMOTM could use updating as well.

You guys can leave my Buckethead FA up though. You know. For science.

hey uhh... don't mean to interupt guys... I know some of ya, most of ya have mixed feelers aboot me, but I was wonderin' if you would be so kind to let me have a name change... I'm kinda bored with this one, plus it's really, really stupid. :)

Go to the Site Forums for a name change.

You should have thought about that when you registered your account this month!

What do you want it changed to?

With less than two hundred posts and having joined only this month, you may as well just register a new account.

What I was thinking.

Maybe we should delete the upload the DU thread completely. Keeping the thread implicates the site as a whole.

move it to a mod forum or something i dont want to lose posts.

Not really. The problems were addressed and the site will be fine.

Can someone update me, I'm confused.

I agree with Coke.

Basically Jrowa received an email from ProgRock Records asking him to stop uploading to the DU.

And several other people got the same email.

Some small record label found out that one of the users uploaded one of their bands album and sent it into the queue. Then they sent him an email saying how if he sent it out they might sue him and the rest of us. They talked on and on about how we were stealing from then and how they would contact the RIAA if we kept up the Daily Upload. So yeah, it is shut down.

and how did they find out about the uploads?

f‪ucking snitches.

I have no idea, I can only hope there isn't a mole in the system >_>

c'mon... all the FA, FG and "theme" thread were classic!! sure, they died, but i still look at them from time to time... for the good old times, you know? :)

btw. i was thinking about making a column... once a month. i already doing this for metalblaze.at and i some of the topics are really good and well disussed. it would be something new and an experiment, but i don't know if i will do it - i just need to think more about it.


btw. the ACCENT-COMP will come next week; i had a lot of work to do last week, so i still haven't got the time, but i haven't forgot it!

I did think about my name, but it was kinda supposed to be stupid and I don't want to register a new account 'cuz I've already registered three to be here and it's just more passwords I have to try and remember... so could ya help me out? Think of it as a "Most Improved Student" Award! :lol:

I think you're going to run out of e-mails anyway.

But I think it's still good to link them :(

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution;15397882]But I think it's still good to link them :([/QUOTE]

I agree.

We could keep it as a secret

I think should set up an AIM chatroom to continue it, and MX wont be involved.

If you organize it off site and are not affiliated with this site I don't think that's a problem. The mod team has to look after the interests of the site though.
