Iceman24 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I think we definitely need a bootleg sections for other than GN'R related bands. We also have a discussion section for them, why not have a bootleg section? Many of us are also interested in other bands and that would be a cool thing.

ssiscool Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 to quote Eric:Having an occasionnal VR download is okay, buthaving a dedicated section for VR Downloads is not theForum's mission "being a GNR related Forum".In this case there are also legal ramifications tohaving downloads, and I rather not touch the walyers ofVR.

Iceman24 Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 I think that's a pretty poor decision Yes.Over at the maiden bootleg side, they have a section with general bootlegs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I think that's a pretty poor decision Yes.Over at the maiden bootleg side, they have a section with general bootlegs.But, this isn't a bootleg site, it's a Guns N' Roses Related Forum.

highvoltage Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I think that's a pretty poor decision Yes.Over at the maiden bootleg side, they have a section with general bootlegs.We've talked about it before and decided that we have enough trouble with monitoring the official material of GN'R. What happens when we bring in an "other bands" board when we have little/no idea of what material has been officially released? It would be too difficult to moderate, and would potentially detract from the focus of the forum (Guns N' Roses). That's the same reason why we don't have a Sport or Film section.That's really good for the Maiden Bootlegs board - but again, this forum focuses on discussing GN'R. In fact, the Downloads section is just a side on to that - we don't want to become a board that focuses on bootlegs.There are plenty of other boards that have other band's bootleg sections... apologies, but you'll just have to use one of those.

jack99 Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Well said, High. We have to remember that this is mainly a Guns N' Roses fan forum and of course we want to grow and get bigger but not by focusing on other bands or adding various sub-sections.

vicious Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 just go to eddies joint or one of the other thousand bootleg sites on the internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murray_TH Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I presume having some sort of sticky thread where you could post links to other sites that provide decent bootlegs would still fall under the RIAA's radar, even though you're not posting direct links to downloads?...I'm on about the Dime a Dozen, Internet Archive, or SXSW type downloads... for example.
