I for one, would would be very interested in hearing a selection from your "usual songs"... because I'm tired of Bapu's/Coffee House Collaborators/Forum Monkeys/Straumpu & The CHC tripe

it's all in fun, right..?

Anyone who participates in this forum better have a thick skin or slow burning point.

 
I dunno Lynn...do you really think it's a necessity? I mean, being realistic in this...
 
You comment on just about every song here. You've never been out of line to anyone even if they posted something that wasn't very good. Sometimes I wish you'd be a little more tough on a few people..lol...but it's all good. :) You've made suggestions and offered advice when you felt the need, and for the most part, other than a few guys, those are the types of responses I see on the forum by the majority. That's how it SHOULD be in my opinion. So you're a great example of good critiques.
 
With that said, there shouldn't be a need to have thick skin. Even if a big mouth like me posts a comment, I NEVER get harsh on anyone. It's rare, other than when someone may deserve it. Like Pete (to me) deserves the exact smack-down James gave him. I too was astonished that everyone was praising him for this after how he's treated others. That said, if the tune was collosal, even though I don't think too much of the guy, I'd praise him to myself without telling him simply because he's not a very nice person to anyone on here. My belief is, Pete is one of us posing as a smart alec using a different name.
 
But all things considered, I don't think anyone needs to hear harsh critiques from anyone really. It helps no one to lash out and say mean things to a person. Like there are certain guys on here I won't go into detail with. I know they are hobby guys and really aren't trying to be great engineers. In other situations, I know people welcome the novels I may post about their production in hopes of helping them.
 
There was one guy on here that really had a tude thinking his material was all that. It's fine when we believe in ourselves, but this one individual was talking like he was higher than the rest of us...and his material sounded like it was 1000 steps below us. So yeah, I ripped into the dude. It got on my nerves...what can I say? LOL! To me, someone like that needs that sort of treatment...especially when they bash on others like they are gifted and don't deliver the goods themselves.
 
So thick skin.....nah, we shouldn't need it for here. But in the big leagues, yeah....different ball game. When you have arm chair wannabe music writers that cut their hair and had to give up on music to find a real job hating themselves for doing so, it makes them cranky and they review music with a chip on their shoulder. All the while, wishing it was them that was releasing music instead. They are so harsh it makes you wonder if they even listened to your album...now there, you need thick skin. But here...I sure don't believe anyone should have to. But that's just my opinion. :)

   I can certainly not defend Pete's behavior, he was mine and many of the GT users shadow for years here giving constant reminders of our suckage. I don't for a minute believe all of Pete's recent nasty critiques were honest.
 I'm sorry if my honest evaluation has offended anyone but after listening again. I guess I still like it. Retro sounding...well so am I, I like retro.  Needs work, that I would agree with but if Rap were intended to be in there, wouldn't you want the rap artist to do his part before it got too busy? That's how I've worked it with the few Christian HH guys I've made some beats for at work. 

I made the pledge several years ago that if PP ever posted a song I would be honest. I don't think acting like a PP in the songs forum would be the right thing for me to do just because he does. I use to really let his behavior affect my mood..I'm not going there anymore. Shad has a great point and I'm going with his idea with some revisions..I've had my weapon drawn for 6 years. I'm tired of this war. I'm giving up and praying for the day the occupation ends or he finally learns to play nice.
