Can you answer my simple 'kindergarten' question at least?

Um... I don't like you, specifically, and you remind me of kindergarten.
Had you been around here long enough, you'd know this is well below our threshold for what is to be considered inappropriate.

Maybe I should change the rules so that they're not as easily mistaken by people who wish to use them as some sort of leverage for their own purposes.

In other words you have no answer to my question? It appears these rules have huge gaping holes in them

and you're willing to change for your own leverage and purpose. Smells of hypocrisy to me.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question... You asked about kindergarten, I said you reminded me of it. Meaning, you remind me of a kindergartner.

As far as changing the rules go, we write them in response to what we have to deal with. They are fluid, and adhere only to the health of the forums as a whole. Not individuals.
So far, our rules have worked out quite well... but apparently there needs to be some specification because a newb decides he can't understand why they're there in the first place, or what they really mean.

I'll reiterate my question for you then . . .

Would someone please explain to me why posting your Lyrics is ok but not your music?
How is posting your Lyrics not promoting yourself but posting your Music is promoting yourself?

this is clogging up the thread unnecessarily, not to mention has little to do with the subject matter that's at hand

I could have sworn this was the Bitch Box?

OP: Welcome...to The Bitch Box....

What ails you my friend?

Did your bitch of a sister borrow your clothes again without asking?
Did your parents decide to have another child at 50?
Did Jon Bon Jovi decide to make another album?
Or did pwesident Bwush get up on the wrong foot this morning and decided to invade another country?

Go on, Bitch your heart out, i promise we'll pretend like we care....

Would have been avoided had the 'Mod' answered my initial question instead of going out on me

Song promoters spam the hell out of their songs, in every forum, especially genre-relevant forums, and then they leave.

People writing poetry/lyrics don't.

And it's not because there's a lyrics forum. Believe me, song-promoters spam their stuff in all forums, especially genre-specific ones. Constantly.

It's not because there isn't a song-promotion forum, either.
Spammers don't care.
I've been modding here and other places long enough to know this. So have the other mods. If you can't handle that possibility, then I don't know what to tell you.
