Bootleg Discussion Clearly the rules say discussion is ok.
However, a recent thread has been removed so moderators can think about it. Some clarification would be good... | |

When a bootleg discussion starts with what reads like a press release for an upcoming bootleg project, we have to err on the side of caution. It's either that or risk being shut down. Which is more important? | |

moderatorimo discussion of bootlegs/songs is okay but when an impending no wait i take that back, a flyer gets posted word 4 word on the org it threatens not only the impending release but it always puts a spotlight on the org as being a possible bootleg spreader.
please know the difference in that and i'm glad the thread got removed and needs 2 stay removed. don't spoil the fun 4 others please man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

and, ya know, if posting this stuff is REALLY that important to you, go start your own blog and post bootleg announcements till the cows come home. It's a lot different when you're sticking your own neck on the chopping block. | |

Yupyup, I was actually thinking the same thing but opted out since I'm not in a position of responsibility.  | |

Err, calm down. I only started this thread as a thread was removed. It's not "REALLY important" to me. Funny thing for someone to post TWO DAYS after the thread was created. Had time to think about it? Blimey. | |

However, a recent thread has been removed so moderators can think about it. Some clarification would be good... IF you read on top of the forum rules it DOES say NO SOLICITING OR ASKING FOR BOOTLEGS! ( and yes it does flash constantly) at the top of each forum topic in yellow I do believe. Ill edit this post and copy and paste it for you. Here it is when clicked on the topic of Prince:Music and More ABSOLUTELY NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS.You want to discuss them? That's fine - but NO OFFERS TO COPY, NO REQUESTS TO COPY, NO "WHERE CAN I GET", etc. NO POSTING OF LINKS TO THESE SITES EITHER. Please be aware that the moderators here strictly enforce this rule.
Im in agreeance with the others, Im glad it got taken down IMHO. [Edited 4/14/09 13:26pm] Smurf theme song-seriously how many fucking "La Las" can u fit into a dam song

Telling someone to read something when you've clearly not read the question in the first place is a little ironic. | |
