its true. we need to moderate ourselves and lock spam threads like all the other sections do. im guilty of posting a tune here myself. i got all overexcited that there was a hiphop forum and posted a tune, then realized it was in bad taste. but no one said anyting and it never got locked... in fact most people are responding well to people posting dubs.
ive actually been thinking about posting a thread for hiphop dubs people want to give out so we can cease the spam situation. what u think?

Yeah thread for dubs, tune ID etc etc this place could do with a bit of order... I reckon this forum has still tipped me off first about heaps of shit, so i still follow it... but in general i have lost interest in dubstep forum due to spam.

I think he may have been refering to the actual spam that was in here for a few days over the holidays... some pharma stuff and some iPhone offers, etc...
but... this music is obviously bigger than this subforum and has no proper forum yet...
If you were starting one, what would you name it?
www.wonkyforum.com?
www.lazerblapforum.com?

all good suggestions.
theres nowt wrong with sharing music etc.. but with forums you can tell when its not working when you have hundreds of threads with only 2 or 3 responses.
sub forums would be very useful at this point indeed.

ahh the age old debate, what is this music we listen to, make, yet cant define. but ya there is not really a place for this stuff other than dsf hiphop. im on glitchhopforum as well and thats not even close to whats going on over here. not that its bad but its more focused on that westcoast glitch sound rather than the overall umbrella of weird hiphop wonkey step fuckery.
ill fire up the dsf hiphop dub thread in a few. maybe a few others, tune ids, releases, blog lists, basically all the self promo stuff. any others im missing???

I wasnt trying to open that can of worms again... what do we call this music... I was just asking what a good name for a forum for this style of hip hop would be, say if someone was to start one that is...
with all the free forum hosting companies out there, all one would really need is a catchy name that would make it easy to find and some trustworthy moderators to make it happen... jus' sayin'

no can of worms, its a legit question. and i like the idea of a new forum but i have no idea what a good name would be. im not creative with words (hence why i make music).

10 years ago i'd probably post on one forum. now i check 5-6 forums and post when the urge takes me. unfortunately extended debate occurs less. shit happens.

Still get a fair bit of record company spamming though.
Happens in all the forums.
Sad state of affairs.
