I agree with that, definitely.

I mean the audio portal really isn't so much for people getting audio for their flashes anymore sadly, everyone uses copyrighted music or something... but anyway yea for people looking for music to listen to, they'll ignore pages 2-20something and just look at the first 10 on page 1... it's really f'in crappy.

Make a section for loops and 1 for actual tracks?

lol sry CHRONAMUT!!!!

my bad!

Nicolas..

I gave up with the 0 voters a long time ago...you can't beat the ones who change their IP's and accounts to mass 0 you...people hear my music when its on the AP front page when I put it on and if they like it they will hear my other songs...I used to really be a score nutt, but it really doesn't matter as long as people hear and review. As for a strat, I just don't vote on my song when I put it up. If it's a zero to start off there is a less chance a 0 voter will vote 0.

Yeah, I agree totally. I really think having your audio reviews listed in the profile would help dramatically. It seems like a real simple think, I don't understand why the haven't implemented it yet.

I'd like an equation for figuring out the weekly top 5 instead of whoever has the highest score at a certain time of the week, and also an incentive to vote just like the flash portal. The constitution of the Audio Portal in the works!

This might be a little harder to do. I don't know if the way the top 5 list workds needs to be changed to much, but maybe have it as a top 10, or possibly some more lists on the frontpage.

Anyway, about those reviews in profiles...

On the subject of sprucing things up in the AP check this TOPIC: http://www.newground../topic.php?id=314297

wade also states that they are not gonna bother doing anything to the AP

Since hes tellin us they arent goin to do anythin, i'm regardin that as a message for the better musicians to fuck off to another site and stop bad mouthin this one.

Audio dosnt even get mentioned in the 'best of the month' posts. I knows that some of the stuff in audio is a lot better than most of the stuff in the flash portal.

LOL true that khuskan true that...the flashportal has some pretty nasty shit. lol

Nicolas...

totaly true.....damn....i have to face it every week on the chosen top 5.......in just 2 minutes........0 voters appear in mass...and destroy any music.....ive seen top 5 musicians... just thieves who just steal music and others to mess around....even a guy who is in the top 5 list and dont have a single download....man how disgusting.......

Submit your music on a thursday ro something, that way it wont be on the front page or threatening enough (with a couple votes to send it to 4.33-) on the charts.

Probably what most 0 voters do is vote on all the songs on the front page to keep people from voting 5 on their own songs, and then they go ahead and do the same damn thing that they are trying to prevent other people from doing.
