| Why is it ok to start a new thread when Armin's Asot #42618753218 is live, but it's not right to let us know when the greatest local talent's set is broadcasted on the local radio station? |

I find that kind of silly as well as the fact that local talent threads are adhered to the same rules as international star DJs.
One that I was very upset at getting locked is this one:
http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...threadid=365270
First, he just posted pics of the night, chinamon does that every week, and his don't get locked. Second, it generated some good discussion about an event that I personally would have never even known about (and I'm sure same goes for others tha thave seen the thread). Thirdly, gay threads about how I should see Digweed at LOL are kept going for 5 pages, but this one got locked within a few replies. Move it to the events forum if you're gonna be a hardass about moderating, don't just ing lock it.. |

that thread WAS promotional spam. wasnt even a roll call.
theres an events forum for a reason....all threads like that get closed so it was not a personal bias or anything of the sort |

he posted a flyer for the next weeks event.... chinamon doesnt use his photo threads as a means to get word out for events.
thats the difference.
if he strictly posted pictures/review, it would have been fine - but he didnt |

because its not the local talent that people are promoting, its the actual radio show itself, usually posted by someone directly affiliated with the show.
therefore - it's spam. |

how about closing all the roll calls started by the promoters? :rolleyes: lol jk
i dont think there's anything wrong with affiliated ppl posting this kinda info. otherwise how should we find out about shows that might be interesting?
tranceaddict is supposed to be informative... but it's not... instead it's full of useless, sometimes offensive threads that moderators couldnt care less about.
im not trying to start a drama, or bash Del, I respect him very much, all I want is some explanations :)
cheers
ps. there are so many TA's with larger sigs than mine was... yet... rrr... guess smn is not a huge fan of Sydney lol
