First of all, Hello all!!!
I just have a personal opinion about whats going on in that site and forum i love so much, ... I mean there are some things bothering me...
for example I saw already a couple of times, Stream , how you edit posts just cause they contain a link to a website... not a [D/D]... and saying everywhere people should stop promoting their websites in the Sig. I sure can understand your will to make this website clean... but man i think thats too much... the FBI are not watching the thousents pages of the Forum. And who better than you know, that most of the poeple here came to here from TranceGate which was made only for the purpose of MP3 illigal downloads... I came from there too... and I supported your and others operators of the site dessicion, to remove the 'Music Links' section... , but you dont have to edit each and evrey MP3 related post ...
secondly, I do click your links and do it often, but I dont like to see time after time ppl saying in the Front page :"Click on the banners to support us"..... I do click , but those messeges are making me feel that the money is the thing makes you edit posts containing links you see as illigal....
I wanna say loud that this is only my personal opinion, and i would realy appreciate if you ppl comment what i've just said...
peace.

flotser.. what u said is sooo true in every sence but in one small matter..
i dont think its the FBI stream wants to hide from.. i think its the fact he doesnt want record companies to think i:vibes is associated with mp3's..

It's very true that I have edited posts because they contained links to illegal content (warez and mp3s). This is for 2 reasons.
1. In most european countries it is illegal to link to sites with potentially illegal content (this is the law in the country where the server resides).
2. We do not want any association with the mp3-scene here at i:Vibes. That would make it impossible for us to get any relations with the music industry.
I can however not remember to have said "everywhere people should stop promoting their websites in the Sig". I have only told people who obviously have links to illegal content in their signature to change it. For example one person had a sig that said something like this: "check out the latest downloads here at my site" with a list of new tunes below.
And as ((-&E-)) have said, we don't do this because of the FBI or something...it is because we know the music-industry checks our site thoroughly before they want to start any cooperations with us.

So far the banners have brought us about £100. The server-rent for the same period of time is £150. After all, we are working severaly hours per day to get this site running, and in addition to that we also pay money out of our own pocket to have a place to host it.
I don't think what you said above was fair, Flotser.

No problem. Personal opinions are allowed, and appreciated
We need to know what you all think to make the site better!

My opinion is that mp3-requests should be removed too. Otherwise this whole forum will be flooded with messages like: "Does anybody have this mp3...","can anybody send me this..", etc. etc.

Well I'll be editing all mp3 related posts, Streams pointed out about the reasoning.
As far as ad-clicking goes, I'm well known for telling u to do so, but its an essential thing to keep the site going, we need clicks everyday here. Of course financial donations are always welcome.... I don't think Stream would turn down the odd cheque or two so if we sound like we're nagging, its cos the site wants to be the best and needs all ur help

Does it matter if you click once a day or like 5 times a day? Do they give you 1 credit per person per day?

wow, i see this site costs much money then... so you can continue nagging us about the banner cliks
And I do understand what you guys say about the record companies (Napster was cool ), and as I said , I 100% agree of the removal of the 'TranceGate" like section were here before.... but Forums is kinda private, and its not tottally associated with your website and its Designers themselves.... and i still think that the editing of posts conating a link to a website (not D/D) is too much...
As you know... I never posted links to mp3 sites (except one time to a warez site ) ... and I will continue in that route.
go [I:Vibes]

Hi Floster, i must have missed this post when you first stuck it up, i think you have hit the nail right on the head there. Spot on mate! I also think your opinion is one that most i:vibers share. I just hope this site dosent buckle under the strain of its own rules. At the moment things are fine, but more restraints = less members. Lets hope this is the begining & end of the rules.

yes you right, it realy seems that here are much less members then it used to be, but the interesting thing is that those people haven't dissappered from the face of the earth... but are very active in other forums, for example the TranceAddict forums... (DUMONDEFAN, Trance-Canada, the one had an avater of a red haired boy.. , and others...). I personally like this forum very much
