i wonder if it is just me but I always feel its a bit rude to come to a site like ubw and expect people to review your songs on another site. I just think it's not in the spirit of the site.

I mean I've got my music on other sites too but if i want people here to check them out I always put them here first.

I have a policy of not responding to review request here unless it's actually on UBW. is that just me being a ubw groupie or does that seem reasonable?

what is the appropriate etiquette?

I'm much more likely to listen to UBW tunes than off-site tunes. I actually try to listen to _all_ rock (and similar), alterntive, indie, country, acoustic, pop posted on the site, but it's been getting harder to keep up, especially with my comcast internet problems this week. I need something more than a "tell me what you think" type post to get my attention to get me to go off site when I'm trying to keep up with all the great stuff happening here.

I agree with Smili. I start with the on-site feedback and if time permits I will listen to off-site. I don't mind the requests, I just give them a lower priority. If we continue to get lots of offsite requests I may make an -off site- review thread.

I have found it odd as well. I usually disregard those posts. Laughing

madrigalfollie

are you using your site name and password? Your login to the page manager is seperate from your site login. If you haven't created an artist page yet, you can use the artist signup link at the top of the home page and then create an 'artist account'. This is the account that is managed through the page manager.

Hope this helps...
