Re: I want to post a megaupload file

Man, all this over sharing a legit show.

I really don't have the energy to pursue this any further.

Any more crap and I'll just take the post down.

I was really excited about the show and wanted to turn of folks to some great music.
Also, this time around my recording came out great.
The conditions were near perfect.
(you know how wrong it can go)

So I ask for some help...and get it.
Then I post in the lounge and some shithead (for no apparent reason) starts to talk crap.
Are people in the lounge area generally RUDE ?
Unbelievable.

Aren't we all a family of tapers (etc..) here, and have respect for each others efforts ?

That was my impression... that's why I'm here (TS as well).
Till now I haven't had anything stellar to post.

The "mega..." site seemed a good solution to my slow internet speeds.
I get to share my work, and not have to tie up my computer.

It seems that it does not work too well here though.

I posted this show 2 days ago on The Mars Volta site for trading and have 736 views and 40 thank you's or positive comments.
Someone even made a cover for me.
How cool is that.
And I just joined that site to post.

I'm not having a great experience right now, a site I've belonged to for almost a year.

...and this is a trading specific site. (of MANY bands)

Don't get me wrong, I've gotten some amazing shows from here, but that was not interacting with the members.
That was taking.
Now I want to give back, and there are problems.
Why is it so smooth there and not here ?
Giving is usually much more appreciated than taking.

Look, I don't want to ruffle any feathers, I just want to post the show and share the joy.

I don't want to deal with hassles.

...and I'm not writing any more on the subject.
