I was going to try mixing a few tunes on Ableton, but that program is one tough nut to crack!

Bollocks it wont let me download it

I just finished my fag

I just got a 20 deck so I'm cool with that!

Hell yeah

Nah it doesnt change how good the tune is though

Great tune mate, I like the beat and the melody is sound, won't let me edit the id3 tags so it goes on my last.fm account though!

I was up till 4am talking to everyone, from Quade, to Nakamura, to Omni himself, and pulling the forum down seems like a bad thing to do, almost like taking your ball and going home. Let's see where we go from here.

You have got it right on point there, we need to have broad shoulders to get through this. Quade won't hold back and he needs to realise that.

I just read it dude, and yeah I appreciate that you spoke to him but at the end of the day, what kind of picture does it paint that he shut the board down over an argument, or that he banned Quade just because he didn't like what he was saying? Quade should be allowed back, that's the bottom line. Insults will most likely be thrown around, but when you think about it, how can they not be?

That's exactly what I just said on my post on the other thread, I want to just post my music, listen to others and get on with it.

One of the other choice for moderator would be JCW, most likely.

That's where he said you talked him round and being a mod. This situation can't stay calm so long as Quade is unbanned, and we sort this out. At the end of the day of course he's going to be pissed about it. Look at what he's done for the board. He's just a very opinionated individual and should be allowed to express himself as such. Maybe he doesn't always go about it in the right way but if he says anything even remotely offensive he apologises and it takes a man to step up and do that. Yeah if Quade is unbanned he may kick up a fuss but that's just something we have to take. Let both sides get it out so we can move on. It's what we all have to take as men, and not shy away from what someone has to say.

Woah wait a minute, I was up all night last night till got 3am with Quade and Nakamura trying to sort this out. Omni took the board down, I really think that PM's should stay PM's and not be used in a public case against the person. Come on Omni that was way out of line. I'm glad the boards back up but the damage has been done now. Most people will miss out on Quade's great tunes, god knows what the other board members think, but it seems to me now that you have changed your mind for being sarcastic to me about having a moderator or a set of moderator to wanting to appoint JCW to be moderator over the board because he talked you round into putting it on. That to me looks like you want the board to be split on both sides. It looks like there is no easy way to settle this. And for what? Look at what all this has stemmed from and what it has degenerated to.

i was a bit sarcastic in that statment. I said that because it seemed like at the time that because of the way I moderate the forums I felt I didn,t deserve my admin position anymore

That's fine then dude, but I still think that having a strict amount of people moderate the forums is the best way to go, I'm not saying it should be me but it would most certainly put a stop to al the arguing, and to answer your sarcasm, yeah I do have a lot of experience modding forums, I've done it for Neoseeker, and plenty of other sites, there's no need for sarcasm as I have not fired any back your way. If you're talking about "being nice" to other forum members then that's not exactly the way to go now is it?

So where do we stand on the admin positions then?

Just leave it now, lets set up some kind of order to stop this happening again and then we can all go back to making great tunes yeah?

I don't mind being an admin at all, I feel that the forum would work better with some kind of "council", therefore, if we all agree on something then it can't be split like this and there would be no arguments as all decisions would be final

The world is full of assholes, you can't take away people's right to be an asshole, I would suggest a "3 strikes and you're out" rule, but yeah we respect that you own the site and such and we do appreciate it, but you can't be a dictator and ban Quade just cos of that remark, because to be honest, it's not even that offending.

The net isnt a privilege though man, we respect each other but to talk like that makes you sound like a dictator man, and thats not right. I maybe new but I'm registered on a lot of forums, they are freedom of speech, and to be honest, I wouldnt be surprised if I got banned for this too, but that would just prove my point

I just read through all the posts and I'ld like to note that it wasnt DarkBliss's material that couldnt be accessed because I could access it just fine, it's just on one such occasion that savefile was down. I also notices that when you put in a savefile link that it only erases the url but not the number code which is the direct link to the tune. Therefore savefile pages can be accessed if you put in the savefile part of the url. I think what is frustrating is that although I do appreciate this site Omni as it's what got me into making tunes in the first place, my main confusion stems from the fact that in one of your previous posts on this topic you have given us a way to get around the savefile text ban, but if this is the case why not just unban it all together and give people both options of posting the link AND uploading directly to the forum, therefore if the savefile link doesn't work they can just download it directly from here.
As for the Quade remark, I fully understand what he is saying as he has posted many a great tune on here and is clearly frustrated at having to repost them all, but banning him straight away was quite the unfair move, he never had the chance to see what you said or had the opportunity for a rebuttle. But that's just me. Again I do appreciate the site and what you have done Omni, I just think the way you went about this was wrong.

Thanks man, Ive been listening to your tunes and I do like them, I'm trying to bring a mix from every producer on here into my tunes
