"Download" spam everywhere!

MP3 download links on the forums wherever I look! Why is this tolerated?
Especially spammed is the Tracklistings forum with lots of pure download threads without any tracklisting! To make it more worse, the true tracklisting efforts go lost because some idiots post separate threads with the same topic / title with the only intention to get lots of downloaders in competition. In this way the true tracklisters are spammed to death and nobody finds their threads anymore and therefore can't recognize their hard work (and of course nobody finds the tracklists). And also members opening threads to ask for tracklists have no chance anymore... |

when you say the downloads are spammed, are these downloads of livesets which people are requesting a tracklist for? |

I'm looking into it and have posted a sticky thread in there declaring no links to sets for the purpose of downloading them. |

I think you should change it so it's allowed if the link is somewhat stable... all that sendspace/etc. crap expires and the forum becomes full of useless dead links |

hmmmmm i think we need a quick chat on msn just to establish what will be allowd in regards to linking to live sets then, there are other forums besides tracklistings that have threads with links to livesets
Cant do it tonight though as its midnight here and i got a 5:30am start in the morning lol |

seems better to have a stable link to the live set in the tracklist thread rather than posting a link to a thread with the download link in the tracklist section. |
