I'm sure I've just scratched the surface of all the capabilities of this program.

On a daily basis, I check out (4) forums pretty thoroughly.
Since I've been here I've commented (favorably) on maybe 6-8 songs in the User Showcase if the song as a whole really grabbed me....even though the obviously popular genre's here are not my preference or the style I write in.
In this context, I just stay with if one can't say something genuinely complimentary or encouraging then don't say anything.


That pretty much lines up with my reasoning as well. But it has been leaving me with a "taker not a giver" kind of feeling. That's all on me though. No one has been accusing me of it or anything! I guess if it doesn't bother others, I won't let it bother me.

But, I have been wrong in the past. smile


I've seen enough enough posts, not A LOT, but not few either negative comments about genres. Many times without asking someones opinion of it. It's usually of the "I can't stand that crap" type of comment.

I get it's the internet and everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm not looking to changed the forums here. Just trying to figure out a good route to go with music.

As far as being wrong, I'm in the group often enough myself! If I'm not wrong now, give it a little time wink

Ultimately, this site (all forums) has a very friendly, helpful group of participants.
Plus, I've not been banned yet! smile


No doubt about that! I honestly don't feel the intent is to alienate by any means. I really don't think you will find a more helpful group of people out there!

As far as being banned...you can do it! I believe in you wink smile

Thanks much for the reply! I always enjoy your view on things!
