Decorum, please

[Rick and Roll]

I would appreciate it if you have a denigrating comment about an artist's music (or recording process) that I play, please let me know so I may forward that to the artist directly.

The shoutbox is not the place for it. Especially when a bandmate is present. The need to make a joke does not outweigh the respect we should show to hardworking artists.

I routinely invite artists to join our community and it would be really cool if we weren't like all of the other sites.

Thank you.
