Exactly my point.

No offense to you mikey or anybody else but..

There really isn't a way to know if there talking about mp3's are not w/ out mailing a digi cam to every person that posts to proove so.

It states in the rules that Swamper did
"Its purpose is to discuss new vinyl or CD releases - not to comment on 'bad rips' or whatever.

Also, when commenting on a track or a CD type out the details properly (Artist/Track Name/CD Title/etc.).

Copying & Pasting the directory name of something on your hard drive isn't exactly easy to read.

Thanks."

If people don't follow rules (which in cases happends) thier thread is taken care of & etc. Unfortunatly mp3's are out there and hopefully the people who do posts go out and at least purchase the music / support the artists.

Although the chances of that would be reduced if threads were only made once the track has been officially released.

Mp3, cd-r, promo vinyl.......I don't give a shit what it is, they key word here is "RELEASED". Released to the public is a lot different from a promo release to only the worlds best dj's NEO. If it's not yet released, it shouldn't be talked about in that forum, it's that simple.

Make a rule saying people must post their comments about promos or mp3's, that have not yet been RELEASED, in the music discussion forum. The new release forum just gets cluttered with threads abouts tracks that are months away from an actually release. Myself and many others do not have time to roam around that forum trying to find tracks that have actually been released in amongst all the threads about non released tunes.

how about changing the forum name to "new releases / up and coming releases" ..

Agreed. That would be the sensible thing to do...

I don't think this would work because of duplicate threads. There would be one thread for hype and one for the release for each tune in the same forum. It's obvious they need to be seperated...
