Really sad to see you have to resort to this, Phobia. Honestly, i'd rather just donate to the site directly than be forced to read cringeworthy offers like this, which I'm sure you hate yourself. My email client actually marked it as spam too, so it appears you've been reported on the spam databases. I don't want to see xlt die, but I don't think I could read another email like that. |

Disappointed to say the least. A whole army of capable electronic musicians in this forum, and an offer that looks like the newest Dance Ejay. Kinda insulting if you ask me. |

Kind of wish I'd done a spellcheck on that outburst. Phobia, when you do the reboot, be a dear and enable an edit function, even if it's time limited. |

ImageLine or Propellerheads (the latter is swedish). I know Native Instruments are more than happy to throw giant budgets into Youtube commcercials, so this might be interesting for them too. Or maybe you could do a deal with some of the guys making cool VST's, for instance SugarBytes. Might be more applicable since most of us already have a favorite DAW for composing. Maybe a mastering suite of some kind could be an idea. |

Realistically, how much money do you need right now to get things off the ground? I need to see how much else I can donate. :) |

Come on phobz, people who post here buy or steal pro level software and know how to use it. That pyramid scheme music shitware email was just embarrassing. If you're that clueless about music software just ask us, we know our stuff. What you might consider doing, is what ronnie at rekkerd.org does, where he does advertising directly for small developers instead of through Google ads (pennies per click, pathetic) - he charges a weekly fee directly for banner ads. Also small music labels, and maybe retailers like boomkat. Developers you want to target include Twisted Tools, FXPansion, U-he, Sugarbytes as Junktion mentioned, D16, Voxengo, PSP, Tone2, and maybe eventually NI, Propellerheads and Ableton. Maybe some iOS developers too. Companies making production-ready loops would be less likely to get clicks here. I figure if you can get the readership up, musicians and developers would both be willing to advertise. Xltronic has brand recognition and a long legacy of loyal users many of whom would be drawn back if the place became more active. See if you can get musicians to do special radio events again, stuff like that. Start rebuilding. Give us something to come back to. |

OK, the software might not be advanced enough for you hardcore members. I know that. But the newsletter targeted more than 10,000 members, so perhaps a few like the offer. We'll see. cheers |

For some reason the chorus of So long, Marianne is playing loudly in my head as a result of this thread. The whole thing is really bizarre and seems so.... misguided and desperate. It's rather sad! Surely this partner isn't your friend Phobiazero? And not really your "partner" either. Just, by the looks of it, some company trying to peddle air. Your community has spoken. They don't like this shit. I have no suggestions but I feel the need to type. Sorry. Love this mb for over 10 years now, really hope it survives (in a way people can respect - or not..who cares as long as the money comes in right? Do you want to support companies like these? Does it make a difference either way? Other people are stupid enough to do it so we might as well. Fuck our personal ideals etc..). I'd love to hear drsgrfn's opinion on the matter. |

i don't think it's unreasonable there's an affiliate blag or three a year, as long as it doesn't get too spammy. more concerning is the complete tastelessness of who phobs has elected to partner up with. makes me nervous that the "reboot" is going to be tacky as fuck, or worse -- money grubbing. p.s. does this board really need a dedicated server? wouldn't it just be cheaper to get a xen vps, amazon ec2, etc.? seems like overkill, and a major, recurring expense.... |

This board definitely has heart, so I think it's not too much of a problem to make money with such a strong-ish community and well-rooted site. Ideas: -bring back contests, have prize money for winner, charge $5 entry fee to put money where skillz are-- percentage of whole goes to site. -ads from sponsors and individuals- I personally would pay for a month ad of a personal album release, just to get my music to the right people and feel like a star by having my album cover highlighted on every page. -have more incentive for premium membership, like signatures, larger avatars, etc. -charge for mod privs, and have privs taken if post-editing/deleting is abused -have a poker section with real money -sell xlt merchandise -use mixes, contests, and album reviews tied into a blog to bring in new members-- charge to have user-submitted albums sincerely reviewed for the blog (so could just write "shit") +feature -tie every post into fb so can be reposted, to bring in new members -conceptualize a massive new xlt platform, use kickstarter to generate the millions it'll take to execute it -irl, sell weed |

I run a message board, actually, but it's only me, Whoopi Goldberg, JCVD, and Danny DeVito. I charge them $4,500 a month for mod privileges, and they think that makes sense. You'd be surprised how much JCVD is still getting for Bloodsport. |
