The intelligence level of most people astounds me, just by glancing at the format of this forum and pretz's announcement. Well, There isn't much hope for many people. Hell how hard is it to go. *Insert Game name* - *INsert Title of Song* for your title of the thread? Not very hard what-so-ever. But enough of that, People will learn hopefully.

Hey, I think I speak for a lot of people here when I say this.

Do you think there could be a rule stating that you cannot request that a song NOT be remixed. I've just been seeing a lot of people posting threads and stuff like "There's too many [insert game name]-[insert song] remixes", or " I don't like [insert game name], so could you please stop remixing the songs?"
I think that it would be greatly appreciated if a rule such as this came into place, as the posts end up with flame wars, with the original poster being exiled for several months [so-to-speak], and there is really no valid reason for someone not to make a remix of a game song, much less be told not to make a remix.

Just a though...

So do requests HAVE to be video game related?

Or do we post non-related VG requests in the WIP:Other forum?

[Less Ashamed Of Self]

Why don't you make it a 'requirement'/guideline that people search vgmusic.com and/or elsewhere for midi's to link to... I mean if you don't know the game's system or the song then it's impossible to judge whether you agree or not.

You're still liable to get n00b after n00b who won't read any notice you post, but I, for one, am tired of seeing linkless posts that I might agree with.

I don´t know the name of all musics. Therefore is important to record the original musics, who have the unknown name.

I've made an addendum to the rules.

7. Do not post requests for music directly from the games themselves or professionally released arrangements (i.e. The Black Mages). This forum is for making requests to the remixers for a song you would like to see remixed.

So... I'm guessing all of that kind of stuff should be pm'ed then? Because information like that is all too useful in actually getting people to know what you're talking about sometimes.

he's saying that you shouldn't trade liscenced music through the forums, dumbass. this isn't a place to get free copyrighted music, it's a place for free stuff to be transfered around.

if you think a liscenced song fits what you want as a request, that's nice. it's STILL illegal to just give a file to someone who hasn't bought it.

*puts up his hand* ok new guy, question from said new guy.

if people keep on thinking you mean the wrong song (e.g. everyone was wanting the sinstral battle theme for Lufia two but we got the final boss music) can we add a link to, say, a MIDI file of the music in question?

Yep, we encourage linking to game music format versions (NSF/SPC/PSF/MIDI/etc) of source tunes.
