There are currently 24,975 members and probably less than a hundred active members posting on an ongoing regular basis in the forum.

I track the total views more than the comments. Comments tend to come in the form of either enjoyment of my song or suggestions to improve it in some manner. I truly appreciate those who take time to comment and have total respect for what they have to say.

When I joined the Forum, I monitored the various forums for two months before venturing to make a comment on a post.

It was two months after joining the forum before making my first post and I only made a total of three comments in the 8 months after joining the forum and did not post a song for a year. My first post was on a song where the lyrics were top notch but the arrangement seemed to be an afterthought which in the reply, the forum member said the arrangement was not given much thought.

I followed and listened to a song repeatedly for 8 months before having the nerve to critique the arrangement of another killer song that I felt was a good arrangement but was also the weak link of the song.

My point is that it takes a bit to overcome the intimidation of critiquing what for the most part is quality material by talented songwriters. It appears that most members never overcome the intimidation but do take time to listen. I appreciate this listens and possible shares just as I do the comments. I've noted songs in the User Forum with hundreds of listens but maybe only 10 comments.

Some of this may even out some as PGMusic Radio on Soundcloud matures.
