[quote]JK im gonna say that perhaps its time to stop asking for or responding to tips.

Maybe if we only tipped music we absolutely loved it would improve the quality thereof. I sometimes wonder whats the point about saying this band is great etc.
Having said that on few occaisions do i listen to the tips and i have discovered some great music. But by and large i ignore the tips. 
Maybe we need photos and some information. I find it boring sometimes to respond to everything likewise others may feel the same about what i tipped.

I notice my Eedris post had lots of replies to protest songs but no one mentioned anything about the artist
i tipped.

Perhaps we have all been [b]Tipped[/b] over the edge.

By the way JK apart from the Orson and vacancy dealsn from last year what else has been tipped on here that has gone on to find success. Im not having a go JK just curious as i am sure there are lots of quiet things happening in the background without anyone really knowing about it. Well us mere mortals that is.[/quote]

DJKZ	Hi Eh ! Well this is a signature and is a form of promotion and advertising whereas a tip is something completely different. You dont tip your own music, you plug your own and your reasons for are slightly different to tipping. I don't tip my own music unless i am asking for feedback. I think tipping is to alert what you think is a hit ready to go. That's just how i see it and of course you may have different ideas and opinions about it.
Martin	Good points Stewy, and JK, but I do worry about some unfinished works in some areas not being posted which could be hepled in developement. I do agree though this is a very small percentage as it allways was sadly. Either way, it spares us the X Factor.
JK2006	Points well made and taken
stewy	I think calling the ROTD posters 'losers' is a bit much. Bare in mind that some posters use their real names and a patently, for all to see, not losers, Debs Wild for instance. Yes, a lot of new posters seem to pop up whenever tips are requested, but that happens here too. I recently sifted through an obviously street teamed thread about some band or other. Can't remember the name, 'Citizen something', possibly I lurked on both ROTD and tipsheet for months before feeling compelled to join in. I agree that some of the tips weren't ready (not necessarily bad though) but I also had a root through and found some stuff I really liked. Also, I think it can help a band if they get tipped before they are ready, if constructive criticism or even better, the offer of help are forthcoming. Sometimes all it needs is a good producer or manager to give some guidance.
Martin	Well, I thought I was more polite than that! But the gate was left open and in ran the sheep, I`m afraid.
