Im currently trying to get my ftp up and running just for the TA commuinity, coz im trying to give something back. What pisses me off is Leechers who dont reply to the threads from which they are Leeching off. Its out of respect that u say thankyou to the ripper/provider of the sourced material eg mp3z.sets,links etc.

How do you know the person posting for the download location hasnt spent hours looking for the set and has had no luck so he comes here asking where he can find it? if you are to be so unkind as to just simply post a url you are one lazy mofo

lol, weren't we all "leechers" at one point??? we all had to have started somewhere. i'll even be the first to admit that in the past i have asked people "where can i get...", although i'm sure i looked for it on my own before i asked. but it's like you're trying to say there is a code of ethics behind sharing music...you sound like the people who shut down napster. such greed. why wouldn't we all want to share the music that we all love so much, whether that person is new to trance or inexperienced??? the reason why i love this community is because of the fact that people are so genuinely willing to help you out with whatever.

don't get me wrong, i do agree with your beliefs...you should make an attempt to find the music on your own, you should give something back to the community, and certainly you should not just demand handouts. but not everyone thinks like us and we shouldn't judge on a whole about people who are looking for sets or songs. who knows...they could be someone like you but just getting started into the TA community...we can't truly know what the intentions are of that person. if i was new and someone flamed me for trying to find a song or a set...i don't think i would still come back...but people helped me out so keep that in mind. blah, blah, blah...ok, ok, i'll get off my podium now

Well no i think we havent. Leechers r people who just take take take. And dont even say thanx.

That is what makes someone a leecher. Not even saying thanx for the tune.

I always were possibly try and thank the supplier of the tune

so if i just take, take, and take some more, and as long as i just say "hey, thanks" i'm not a leecher...come on...

Isnt that you abusing your admin powers by inforcing your own personal opinions when the forums where made for freedom of speach?

No..i'm not abusing my mod powers. It is not my opinion.....us mods decided (as a group) that we were tired of this and it had to change.

Sorry i dont like to force rank, but this is just bone idol.

People on 56k modems find it hard to share stuff, and provide things.

So saying thanx is better than nothing.

Leechers just r there for the music, some dont even post, just come here to leech.

I hope that explains it more

Originally posted by Tranzlucent It does get annoying. People just whine that they cant find this set or that set, instead of taking the time to find it for themselves. Alot of people want everything handed to them it seems.

whatever dood

some ppl just might not have 4 days to search the net like you do, just to try to find out where they can dl stuff from....or were you one of the lucky ones and got some help from other people telling you where to download stuff from???

>JM<

well i don't know much about livesets but i know for a fact people are always begging for singles that are up on AG. even if they knew it was AG, they still ask you for a link. come to think of it, thats just sad when you can't even do a tiny little search for yourself. some people just beg you to put everything in a box, wrap it up all nicely and have them delivered to their front door or something.

livesets i guess are a different issue considering that it takes a longer time to spread around on AG, public ftp's and stuff. on top of that, not too many people will share the lesser known mixes unlike the TE, innercity stuff.

My feelings about this is that people shouldn't ask for stuff, unless they do some work looking for it first. Some stuff is clearly easy to find, and some stuff is really hard to find. Except for some cases where sometimes people buy CDs and DVDs and those people post about how good the CD or DVD is and other people start posting saying "can you rip the DVD or CD for us." Obviously that person bought the CD with his/her own money and expecting to share with other people? I feel something like that is wrong!
