just to recap what some people said already. If you dont like the thread dont read it simple as that. Unless you are a masochist and like to put yourself willingly through this so called torture. Everyone begins somewhere i am sure you guys where there too as well as me. I started with cheese but i had this feeling. This feeling that there was something else out there to fill this void. And i found it. Long live TRANCE

Agreed Nukuez.

Some people on this board are very reluctant to share information when it comes to mp3z and file sharing. "Where to download sets/tracks?" is a legitimate question in my opinion and it's sad that there really isn't any exchange of information going on with this topic; just flames. To simply type "DC HUB" does not help people. Tranceaddict is a music community and mp3z/sets are an intergral part of music. I realize that the website tries to watch out for the RIAA but to simply provide info about this topic will not result in anything.

I say this ure right nuk because its wrong, hell it happened to me, i've been apart of this site much longer than my lil avatar heading says, but it happened to me, its sort of like a rite of passage in a way, but then again theres the point that these people are not contributing nething, all they want is a new cheese song that they can bump in there new mistubishi eclipse as they try to mimic that girl from the first commercial and i think we all agree that there is no place for those kinda people here i mean think about it half the people who start those threads get some info about the hub or the search or somehting and then we never hear from them again leechers are wat they are bloody leechers, but neway to curve my incescent rambling my point is this while someone is getting flamed i think its harmless fun a lil cruel but harmless fun and a rite to everyone but at the same time we are here to spread the word about the divine listening pleasure that trance has to offer, so in a sense some people should get off their high ass horse and come back here to reality, but hey wat r u gonna do. And in a way it actually teaches a lesson i knoe that now i never start a thread without searching first, and give some people a break if we could some how count all these threads that were started im sure it would be outrageous. So I mean some poeple are jus sick and tired of it and are tryin to curve the problemo

Originally posted by Raccoon I've also noticed that TA is not newbie-friendly and it is a little elitist. I must admit, its quite a paradox. People ask for suggestions to convert their friends to trance, yet when new members come they get flamed. I bet if Starfox posted a 'favorite track' thread then he'd get 50 replies, but if someone new did that they'd get 25 flames.

I'd flame any favourite track thread f0x makes, just out of principle

I agree with Cyberwoo. If all they want TA for is mp3's then they deserve a little flaming lol.

Also, yeh they are new, but it doesnt take too much brainpower to do a search... does it?

Another also.... the threads should be deleted by a mod straight away to save ppl wasting their time reading it, or adding pointless flames.

I would say some members can be, but they soon get pushed out usually, this is not elitist compared to other forums, i think it is pretty good actually

I think maybe there needs to be a thing that states before posting a new thread, to make sure u've searched, if they ignore this then yes they deserve a flame or two, but only if they ignore warnings about it.

the other thing about elitism, I don't really see, a lot of ppl are like it and i can see how you'd get it, but a lot of it is like usa vs uk vs ca etc, more ppl of the same nationalities joining together for flames, I think that there are certain sections of who will remain unnamed, but most ukta goers will know who I mean, who if u don't agree with them, they cry & flame you and I do think that maybe that needs to be dealt with a bit more harshly, but apart from that, I think we just gotta welcome newbies, and as dave said, theres no point welcoming ppl who just wanna leech swampers bandwith, we need ppl who're gonna join in.

end of my say

I think all you "elitists" should get off your high horse. I spent 3 months lurking in the damn forum before I actually signed up to contribute, for fear of getting flamed. C'mon people. How many discussion boards out there are actually as good or better than this one? Not many. Most of them are people just flaming each other and that gets annoying and childish. If you don't like the question then don't read or contribute to it. You're wasting your time and others times because no one likes reading that shit.

The mere fact that people discuss like I commited some personal affront to them is mind boggling.

At least we talk about music in here.

I joined a local area forum thinking, 'cool, people in my area that have the same interest.' They hardly talk about music at all.
