Hello As you can easily notice in our board music navigator, we're having a lot of new uploads, but many are ignored, members do listen sometimes but nothing else, which is not the purpose of the site, most of us do want to know what people think about our music, and how can we improve it. We have too many "Please Review This Work", we're been thinking in bringing back the Reviewers Team, but is not an easy task. This topic will be for all of us to offer solution for this issue, not to post complains, but real ideas could work as solution for this. Please, don't post if you don't have something solid to suggest, this topic needs to be kept clean of large useless conversations. I will speak of something I've noticed, that could be a reason members don't comment much, I've felt this in the Orchestral Forum, were I spend more time, it might not be the case in other sections of YC, but I think it does happens in Orchestral.... I've felt very often a member goes to listen, with much interest, but then leaves without saying anything because very probably he feels himself unable to comment, perhaps afraid of posting a comment might sound silly, that others could find as nonsense, or ridiculous, maybe is like "Well I'd like the horns do that too" but then he may think "I don't even know a thing about horns, so maybe is not possible" Perhaps members think they must have a solid knowledge to be able to comment about an orchestral piece, well that's true somehow, but we can help them. What about if we set the "Comments Templates" that anyone can use to start, to have an idea of how to comment, what to say, what would he like to say about the music, the member would click, and then complete the comment... like these: I Liked the language in this, but the form was a bit confusing to me because... I liked the beginning, then I got lost after... I think the work is good but doesn't require so much... I like how you started this, but I feel it needs more... I didn't like more of the piece, but the part where... Your work is too short, you could use or simply repeat the... Your work is too large, I think sections like... The Server would reject the unchanged template, to avoid bare spam posts, it still would have its probable negative usage, but we can always try new things. Also, in our music navigator, I think would be better to see the member is uploading and not just the title, what do you think ? Remember, if you're going to complain, go somewhere else, create you thread or whatever, here is to offer ideas, solutions, suggestions. Thanks.
