Im not saying he has to like the piece. But if your going to say that you don't like a piece then say I don't think it works very well, or I dont like it because ... He pretty much just says this piece sucks and you sound gay singing it. The reason I ask for a review from you guys, because you guys are supposed to give fair honest reviews, not the reviews many newgrounders give. I mean heres what Kirbyfemur says on one of my piece

Well it was a nice little piece to say the least.

What need to be fixed up:

The instrument sounds need to be tweaked both in the software sounds being used, and in the volumes of the individual instruments. Because it was hard to hear some of the parts.

It feels a lot longer than the :45 seconds it is, probably because of the tempo of the song.

I do realize that good sound software is difficult to find, but do a little bit of searching and you'll find something.

Anyways, I would love to hear a more expanded version of this song, even though I wouldn't be about to use it in something, since i am not a flash artist.

Anyways, not to bad. =3

He gives critical criticism to help me make the piece better, and says whats wrong with it. Yes this is a moderate review, but do you see the difference between this review and your review. It has a purpose, not just oh this sucks then random fluff if you wanna review things, give it reason

thank you. You dont have to like it, just give it a fair chance before you judge it, and keep an open mind. If you dont like it tell me, but give me reasons I only get upset when people say stuff like this sucks, because I want to know what I need to do so that it doesn't suck.

alright dude, let it go...just let it go. The topic has dragged on a bit much for a review. And as far as my review goes, you can't tell me to review the piece not the vocals, when all it is is vocals. The piece was flawed, but had it's moments. Alright now closier.....ah....sweet closier. Alright, so who are the "reviewers" for this forum? I'm just curious.

Just be careful of how you review something. When someone is intelligently criticized about something wrong, they'll have a less likely chance of becoming offended. (unless your the average NG asshole who wouldn't know how to take criticism if it had an instruction label written with bright colors and pop up pictures lol) What I'm going to guess that this club is going for, is to spread intelligence through the fucktard cesspool that is becoming (and probably has been) Newgrounds and about 90% of websites out there. Don't worry bud, at least you are smart enough to realize what you're doing, and we'll be happy to see you make a comeback. :)

Dude, the fact of the the Audio Portal is to have actual instruments in it. This is NOT American Idol Auditions.

What the hell are you talking about here? The point of the audio portal is to have either instruments, other type of songs such as songs that use random noises like computer noises, or singing/voice acting. Even a combination of any of them.

Saying that it's not a place for this just tells me that you have no clue what you are talking about and this itself is enough that you should probably not review the things from this club unless you get your head on straight.

I couldn't tell if you sounded more like a girl or a boy in this but it sounds really gay.

This could almost make your review abusive. Telling someone who is obviously and clearly a boy that his voice sounds like a girl, especially when it didn't, is really dumb. I mean if you have heard girls that sound like that then I would be scared to see what they look like as I haven't.

The rest of your review is fine though. If your going to keep reviewing like this then I would suggest not touching the review system again. If your going to stick to only saying on how to improve even it is harsh and not saying rude comments then it's a different story.

Sarias has all the reason to be upset in this situation. I'm almost certain that he agrees that if you would have gave him a low score and backed it up with a constructive review that he wouldn't have cared. I think anyone would be a little pissed if they got a review like that.

He's not a member of this club and he never was, he asked to join but went through our judgement unsuccessfully. And the blog on his userpage is obviously not to be taken seriously. And just go with it if it happens again, a single bad review isn't that important.

Not sure if you've seen his new reviews yet, Sonofkirk. That one review, admittedly, was abusive, but he apologized for it after. His new reviews are actually quite well written. It's true that before he asked to join the club with his Youtube comments, but now his reviews are decent, IMO. Is he allowed to join the club?

On a totally unrelated subject, if you need me to do the requests list again, don't hesitate to ask ;).

I read the posts too quicky, it would seem, sorry about that, I was quite in a hurry when I posted. His reviews are fine yeah, I'll include him to the list.

Hey, thanks man, you saved me a big bunch of time :D. I did a quick look to match the requests with the list, and I don't think there are any mistakes, so great job ;).

You still don't know about our Extra Audio Requests method, but it means that since we're getting so many audio requests, anybody who requests more than 1 submission will have his extra submissions in the 'Extra Audio Requests' (there were 2 in the last list) [E.G.: someone posts three audio requests: 1 of them goes on the list, and the other two go on the Extra Audio Requests List]. The extra audio requests from last week get moved on to the audio requests list of this week, and the new extra requests go on the extra audio requests list on the next week, etc...

Here are the two other requests that we have to review in addition to this week's:

-Zestify- By Liam3003
Shine Cover (NO VOX) By Kirbyfemur

And the Extra Audio Requests (2) for this week are:

In The Trees By sarias
The Ancient Ones By Monkeydelic

Don't worry if you didn't write this down in your Requests List, it's your first time so obviously you wouldn't know :). Thanks again for making the requests list, it's always great to have a dedicated member like you. Anyway, these are the requests you'll have to work on for this week, so good luck on them :)... I'm still trying to finish the requests from last week. D:

IMO it's fine if you join. Your reviews are organised well, and they're nice and helpful. Just try and avoid the review you left on

and you'll be fine ;). Start reviewing the requests from the list somewhere on top of this post, and add Review Request Club at the end of them, and whenever you're ready from the requests, before Sunday, using the

points system

, count the points you got by reviewing the requests and post them on this thread. So when you finish as many requests as you can, post the points you gained before Sonofkirk does the next update which will either be on Sunday or Monday.

Enjoy your stay ;).

There's a little ray of sunshine from the ether, as I had a massive internet crash this morning, so lost my chance to maintain a 100% record. Let's knuckle down to get these finished then and move onto next week's list :)

I know it would be kind of unfair to keep the update waiting just for a couple of people, BUUT since he's been workin his ass off to get all of the reviews done, i'd hope that he'll get a chance, him and whoever has been here a long time and keeping a good record. That and I hope you've taken Fro off the list so his rate doesn't keep going down lol He's not able to review think he's said a page or two before this. I mean unless you don't take names off the list just because of stuff like that.

I got 125 points this week because of the 64 points from last week i hope i got the points right and your welcome for the requests list, sonofkirk. I posted the points earl because I really doubt that i am going to review any more requests. Hope i get a good score on the update!

What exactly was misguiding about what I said? Looks like what I said was actually factual and not really a point of view or an opinion in anyway. Especially the part that you quoted where I said voice acting and singing was perfectly fine on the audio portal as he said it was only for instruments.
