Question about etiquette in Songs Forum
Ok, so I'm a total dumb ass, I admit it. I should have read the details in the songs forum before trying to post a link to my songs in there. Now I realize I am supposed to post at least 25 before I can add a link. What can I say, things changed since the last time I was here, a year or so ago? I did my part critiquing a number of songs instead of being a selfish artist, but I only got up to 23 posts apparently.
Well, even though I'm at work, I took a couple minutes to critique a couple songs to get up to 25. These people deserve better as I should be listening on my home stereo tonight, and I absolutely will do that and provide plenty of feedback like I did last time.
So...I've got this annoying thread in there "Deleted - Cannot find the delete button..." I kept editing it trying to figure out what was wrong (before I read the instructions...just like a man, right?) and now I'm worried that if I go and update the thread with my song link and everything, that people will think I was trying to bump it up, like an ass hat.
So, should I start a new thread with the song link, or go back an edit that one? I don't want to make people mad or think I'm a selfish introverted penile thingy...

Either way is fine. We won't make a decision on the penile thingy for awhile after that. We'll be in touch......wait...that didn't come out the way I intended.

Edit the (not so) deleted thread AND post a new thread, just to be on the safe side. And don't forget to create a thread in the X* forum with a link to your posts in the song forum. They really love it up there when you do that..

Don't worry about it Voda.......there's an unwritten rule called the "Shameless Plug Post" that allows you to do such a thing......shamelessly.

And you don't have to make all 25 posts in the Songs forum. That's a lot of work. It's much easier to ratchet up the post count here in the CH, because the posts needn't make sense, be informative, nor humorous, nor relevant, nor in good taste. Just no cat pictures, please.

Yes, there is indeed. I discovered this after posting to a song. I remarked that the song was poorly arranged and quite possibly had been a direct but lame attempt at a recording of a known song. The performance was equally bad, from the badly timed and off pitch vocals, to the disastrously mic'd guitars which were badly intonated, not too mention sloppily played. Drums were speeding up and slowing down, leaving the ham handed bass playing with no pocket to play in, not that the bassist could have found it any way. The recording itself was a crap pool of swamped reverb, compressed to the point of the wave form looking like a solid block white noise. The fade out was nicely done, but unfortunately 3:45 minutes late for a song that clocked in at 3:45. Later that day, I recieved 4 PM email notices, which is normally exciting. However, this one was from each of the guys I had just done a collab with. They were flabbergasted at my response to the song we had just finished. Therefore, the etiquette tip I recommend is that you listen carefully and SOBERLY before posting. Randy
