Unfortunately, all of this BS has nothing to do with my song. The song was merely hijacked, like so many do on other sites, as well. For my part in it, I apologize Steve. When I saw Dom descend on your thread, I tried to ignore. But when he kept going, I tried to short-circuit his antagonisms. I did like the song. Marty

Folks (with one exception) I feel I've overstepped the mark and equally feel ashamed that I have stooped to gutter level dialogue in dealing with a nonentity. I intend ignoring the resident troller in the future and trust he will do likewise? However I might come out of retirement on special occasions. John

Well, for what it's worth, I've been lambasted for 30yrs online because of my politics/religion... So, it's really hard for me to tell "who's who" in the world of trolls.
However, one thing is perfectly clear;
These sites are plagued with bad actors who wish for and encourage their dysfunction and demise... And AI seems to have become another tool of the trade.
The WWWeb gave all as-holes a platform and a voice. Now, AI has given them a song...

FDE,
I can understand the dismissive and or rude approach if one is approached by someone who is looking to sell his art. No one here, I think, is trying to sell their song to you. If you think the song is "bad" just move on.... don't buy it. Let me tell you something that I think you already know.... what goes around, comes around. I wrote something about ai, looks like you are dismissive about that. But that's bot the point really. Your posting a song, what's the reason for posting ? To see what people think of it. There is no other reason. So if they are essentially asking what do you think of my latest song. Do you tell everybody "good job" That's not what people want. What they do want is to be told they are good. When that don't happen I'm the bad guy. What comes around goes around? I was never a Nashville writer, was never big into country, I learned a bit on the TS site which is gone. I would get critiqued designed for Nashville, I didn't even know what they were talking about, except that it would never fly I am not immune to bad reviews, if somebody is sincere I have no problem with it. I may listen to their work to see what level they are on. But bottom line is people post to be told they are good. But that's not going to happen most of the, some will think it sucks I'll tell you what people want... They want to be accused with being too handsome, they want their works to be recognized as brilliant, and they want to be compensated richly for it. just because you don't get what you want, that shouldn't be enough excuse to be miserable.
