It's a fair point but I find the lack of freedom to say what I want over powering and just too controlling, does encourage me to post at all. I find the lets not slag things off stance a bit silly, listen if I play a crap gig or you think one of my tracks is shit I'd rather hear about it than have it dressed up in some loved up prozac pomp.

I agree with Martin in some ways....freedom of speech is important. However there are ways of addressing things, and one of those is to give constructive criticism as opposed to stomping all over something with the statement "that was crap"

We are all here at the end of the day because we like Techno....whatever form it comes in. We can use our love of Techno to give constructive advice ;)
