Request a Feature (Songs)

Nuselline · August 19, 2011, 11:37am

I like all of these rules except this one:

Also could the view limit be 500 again?

And I think this song should be unfeatured. It’s just repetitive, and 4in1 and teddy have points in the commnets. Plus the user already has a song featured.

JACKPOT
…and there’s the song i was referring to in my rant…
4in1, Nuse, Teddy and i all say it should be…that’s 4 out of 3…so gone it is…

Another question is: should non-mods be able to say yes? If someone asks for someone else’s song, then a non-mod comes along and says yes, should they be allowed to say that it’s feature worthy? There are a lot of people who won’t say that it’s feature worthy becuase they are “not a mod!” I think that should be changed.

cough

Please, speak up! Everyone’s opinion matters, whether you can feature the song yourself or not.

To QVX: 500 listens is actually quite a high number to achieve, as on the current list it only applies to songs featured since April (and before). I personally think that it’s no problem to leave a song up there for so long, especially if we actually debate over which songs are worth featuring.

Here’s a base guideline of what I have in mind.

For featuring new songs (this set of rules only applies to future compositions):

Rule #1: No song can be featured until it has been posted in this thread.

Rule #2: A song that has been formally requested in this thread must have three votes going for it by different users (not just mods), all of whom must post their opinion in this thread. If a user posts a song he/she did not make, it counts as two votes for the song and will only need one more users vote.

Rule #3: If a user posts in this thread saying they don’t want the song featured, it shall count as a negative vote.

Rule #4: A user that has a song featured may not request another one of their songs, unless they specify that they would rather have the older song taken down. If someone else requests it for them, only then is it okay for there to be two songs by the same user featured. This does not apply to collabs.

Rule #5: Once a song is featured, it shall not be removed save for one of the reasons below. This also means that the voting period will be over.

For taking down old songs (this can apply to all currently featured songs):

Rule #1: If a song reaches 300 listens, it will have been up for long enough.

Rule #2: If a song’s rating falls below 3, it needs to be taken down (with the exception being songs with less than 10 votes)

Rule #3: If a user has a song featured and they say they want a newer song featured in it’s place, the older song will stay up until the newer song is featured.

Rule #4: In the instance that a song is featured and has not reached one of the above criteria but you still feel it should be removed, post here about getting the song removed. The same system will be used, 3 votes will be needed other than the original user who requested a song be taken down, and if a user requests their own song it will count as two votes, thus needing one one other users agreement before taking it down.

I’m wondering if we should have a separate thread for that last rule, but that’s only if you guys actually want to use this system.

Also, for mods:

Rule #1: When you take a song down, you are obligated to re-post it into the past-featured songs list.

Rule #2: When you feature a song, please post in this thread stating that you did so (this one isn’t mandatory, I just want to know how you guys would react to that).

can we add a rule to the list for taking down featured songs saying that if the original user does not want the song to be featured (for whatever reason) they can request it to be taken down.
Also i’ve never seen a song rating in the featured songs drop below 3.0 stars.

Check my quoted text, I underlined the part where I went over that.

And of course I’ve never seen a song dip that low either, but I have seen a few get close. Maybe 3.5 is a better rating for that purpose.

Oh and Nuse, that should be fine. I only dropped it because of QVX’s post.

FINISHED. YEAH.

StarWarsXD · August 19, 2011, 6:12pm

You got my vote.

It’s a solid song, a little repetitive but short enough that it’s not as bad as it could be. The style is reminiscent of Sandal’s style, nice and solid but also simple.

Only thing I think that should be considered the song’s short-falling is it’s length, it is quite short.

Slippy · August 19, 2011, 6:19pm

Stuff like the solo’s were short, because there’s multiple of them. But thanks. :L

fran5 · August 19, 2011, 6:22pm

We have to vote

+1

Tsukasa · August 19, 2011, 6:40pm

Okay, you’ve got my vote as well.

guitarskills · August 19, 2011, 7:09pm

THAT’S 3.

4, if you count me.

StarWarsXD · August 19, 2011, 7:11pm

I featured it.

guitarskills · August 19, 2011, 7:57pm

But… I featured it, too D:

What’s going on!

QVX_797 · August 20, 2011, 1:25am

Good to see structure now stops having heart attack
Also i preferred it with 500 listens as well…i was just wondering what would’ve happened…
Nice song slippy

THEFinalBoss · August 21, 2011, 3:59am

clears throat

Funfield’s Race was featured…2.87 rating…

mrteddy6564 · August 21, 2011, 4:12am

I don’t get what people didn’t like about that song… it was one of my favorite featured songs (mainly because I liked the melodies, but it should have been made longer).

cartrox01 · August 23, 2011, 2:28pm

Holy crap. I agree with teddy. What’s so bad?

Tsukasa · August 23, 2011, 2:40pm

The green synths.

cartrox01 · August 23, 2011, 3:06pm

Really? I think they were pretty good.

mrteddy6564 · August 23, 2011, 9:12pm
