| All I see is tons of views with no posts and a bunch of people that are too afraid to post or something. I see maybe 5-6 people at least always viewing the the Production forum and Music Production forum, so....why not just post something really quick? I'm really seeing no point in saying anything via thread anymore because all people ever do is flame or give a vague response now anyways. If you have knowledge, then share it don't keep it to yourself...what good can that do for everyone else? Anyways...I'm going to keep posting because I know it helps out some people, but some of these pointless threads are getting...*yawn* boring. Let's uh learn something new or something. |

| i only post if i can help someone out or the thread relates to me in this forum. the music promotion forum i used to leave feedback to alot of people but never got the favour returned so i only post to people who have supported and helped me. i no theres others in my situation. me and rich had this discussion in another thread. all the people i knew on this have gone. theres only a few left. |

Main reason I don't ask questions is because it's very likely someone has already asked my question, and if there is a comment that is needed, someone with ninja quickness answers it before I do.
Plus, the search function is the best tool for getting your questions answered. I've learned about production simply using that function. |

yeah barry I know what you mean by the whole music promotion thing...but don't you think as a community we're just losing people that way if we don't leave quality feedback?
*InVeRs3*: I see what you mean, but I know there are definitely some questions that you have that some people haven't already asked.
But anyways...I think a lot of people are starting to lose interest this forum for the reason that no one is posting like they used to anymore. It should all be changed!!! |

Laziness.
I dont even remember the last time I asked a question on this forum. I dont actually think I have. Why?
www.wikipedia.org
www.google.com
together they answer 95% of all the questions I have ever asked myself.
When people start making a fuss about it though - about people not contributing. I have this to say:
Get off your ass. Read it up on wikipedia or google. Then help someone out here with the stuff you have learned. If you can be bothered.
Lead by example. Lindo, since you brought this issue to the attention of the boards you can start by suddenly making a couple of very informative posts. |

Same here. I post less and less there. When I started putting up material over a year ago, I remember this place being so much more useful. People would tell me exactly what was wrong with my track and they'd suggest how to improve it. They'd give useful advice. Nowadays, you post something and all you get is a couple of comments that go "nice track", and then your thread sinks to the bottom of the list. I just don't see the point anymore of going through the trouble of uploading big files only to have no one comment on them, so I've stopped for the most part. There's still some people who's work I'd gladly comment on, all they have to do is PM me because I rarely visit the forum anymore. |

Alright...well Derivative...I have already thought about that and I've currently been working on that arrangement tutorial for all the newbies to production and what not and also was working on those "airy" pads that everyone wants. I would love to contribute it's just hard when the questions asked are "What's the best sequencer?" or "I'm looking for a banging bass sound..."
Some posts are worth it thought I'd have to admit, just not informative because it's more of an everyone give your input type of situation. I think it's time for us more experienced users to throw in our 2 cents and help out these new producers from asking the same question time and time again.
Edit: pixxxan, if you find it boring, then don't post your useless 2 cents. I'm just trying to get everyone to get together and think about how we can bring the community back to where it should be and that is being useful to your fellow producers and giving quality feedback not just "nice track could use some work though...good work?" |
