Pet Peeves
on: October 11, 2005, 02:50:38 AM
what are some of your pet peeves?

I'll start us out:
1. People who join forums but never post.
2. People who say things like 'chillax'
3. Ambiguity
4.Rule or law breakers.
5. People who critisize about someones work when they know d*** well they can't do any better.

On the forum ? Not a lot really, but I'm getting old and easy going now. If something is not to my taste I don't have to read or post. It certainly isn't a peeve, but I'd like to see more of the regulars post recordings in the audition room, especially of original music - it's a valuable resource which deserves more use. It would be a pity if everybody refrained from posting their playing because of comparisons and criticism.  Mind you, the overall ratio of downloads to comments is huge so I suppose the point of working too hard at recording could be questioned.

Ignorance
Conservativism
Any type of "music" that was created without any type of artistic vision (ie. 99% of pop)
People that listen to only one type of music so that they fit into a certain image
Preconceived notions, assumptions, labels
