I totally agree....it's best to be specific about what type of 'direction' the OP desires.

Me....if I post a song, it's finished, and I'm only concerned about how the mix translates to other systems....not if my song is appealing or deserves a second listen.
If one does give a listen I'm sincerely grateful and more so if they commented on the mix and thought the song actually sucked. smile

Knowing that song writing is an extremely personal endeavor it takes courage to put one's song writing efforts out for public comments or scrutiny.
But....we're all adults here and there's always going to be someone that chimes in who will be perceived as too honest, rude, not patronizing enough or just plain insulting.
No matter...I must take the bitter and the sweet, maintain thick skin and ignore the 'bitter'.

I have no tolerance for anyone being cruel with their comments.

That's my take....a good day to all.
