I think we should set a goal in that section. Whenever we post up a track we should set a goal for ourselves to review at least five other tracks from other members.

If you recieve a review on your track you should set a goal to do a quick search to see if that member has tracks of his/her own and take the time to return the favor.

Just read about the lack of involvement in the member sections and thought I would suggest this to everyone. make the section a bit more fun and productive for those seeking opinions.

great idea in principal, noone will adhere to it though, trying to get feedback in that forum is like getting blood from a stone

Yeah I suppose. Maybe they could make it a sticky in the members section that if you want feedback maybe you should give some to others. I always try to review at least five tracks whenever I post something hoping to bribe someone into listening to mine.

If we had some mnml web space, it would be different.

Most ppl just ignore tracks without a streamable link....

Not sure how that would happen without advertising / sponsorship....

well any one can register a soundcloud account so thats a great thing.

I think this is a great idea. If you wan't some feedback it's just common sense that you should return the favour.

yeah I'm the same, I was very rarely getting feedback, so very rarely even post in the members section nowadays, which is a shame

I totally agree with you !
I do try to post some works from time to time but without expecting a lot of feedbacks and with the time i tend to stop posting .
The section is nice but the thing is that people post there to show their work more than to share with others... I think it's almost the same issue as everyone has with myspace (or even right now with soundcloud... I receive hundred of tracks from people that I don't follow and that are not even following us)
No one to blame... I do try from time to time to have my seconds of egotrip :p
I am guilty most of the time to only listen from people, i ve already read in this forum and most of the time i totally ignore the one shot poster... I got tired of it !!!
But also most of the time i only give positive feedbacks to track i like with some criticals remarks on few points ! I won't see myself coming there and saying "Nope i don't like..."
I am also guilty to only listen and to not comment even if I do like... but i ll try to change that :p
... But don't think it will make people more involved in the section !

For every track i put up i try to give feed back to at least one person, and when i have enough time i also try to give feedback to more. but as a beginner though i worry wether my advice would be helpful or detrimental? Anyway i give comments when i feel i have something to add. This is on other forums too as i frequent a cpl, not posting often though.

And yes i find it much easier if there is a soundcloud link or myspace link etc.
