Official Discussion Thread (Ghost Edit)

Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

I'd argue against that, being from high school and all, but I'd see how you older people would think that.

Yeah, no. Swearing is something people do a lot pretty much everywhere. I grew up in a town that's pretty much a giant farming town sans farms. Maybe I might be a little uninformed about the US though since the attitude towards swearing here is generally pretty loose, but it's not something that'll really go out of fashion.

Anyway, I'm gonna agree with ascii and bac, you don't really need to swear that much, Ricky and as much as I and other people might not pay it any mind it's kind of inconsiderate towards people who mightn't like it when people swear.

Mind you I work in the construction business. People swear a lot more than high schoolers here. Like , they are sailors.

I just don't really swear a lot.
It's like, not really fancy.
I look at it as being unprofessional.
Like, I have never sworn in front of my boss.

But like, I do actually swear.
Just not here much at all
Mostly like on skype or around a certain person or two.
But generally, my language is pretty clean.

I just think of people as a bit more professional when they don't swear.
It's not often you find people who never do.

JSynth wrote:Am I the only one who feels that CC is a bit unprotected? I mean, hypothetically, if I had to take someone to court because they were selling my music, would I be able use a CC license in a court of law? Last time I checked you need something filed for copyright in order to protect it in a court.
"But copyright is restrictive!"
Well, yeah but you and your label are the ones who decide if you are going to strike a remix/creative work or not. If I were to file Fade Away for copyright, YouTube won't automatically shut down its remixes, I would have to tell YouTube to do that. Copyright may not be perfect, but it does let me protect my stuff when I need to.

This isn't quite how copyright works.

If you licence your works under Creative Commons, then your right to take legal action against someone using your works depends on what they're using your works for and what specific type of CC license you're using.

There are four basic extensions to the Creative Commons license:
1. BY/Attribution - this is included in every type of CC license, and requires that anyone using your work for any purpose must credit you for it.
2. SA/Share Alike - this is optional and requires that any other work which incorporates your work in any way must also be licensed under an identical license to the original. However, unless NC is also specified, they can still use your work for commercial purposes, e.g. as a component in software that will be sold for a profit, or in a movie that will be sold for profit, as long as the work itself, or any derivative, is licensed correctly.
3. ND/No Derivatives - this is optional and prohibits anyone from creating derivatives of your work. In other words, if they use your work, then they have to include the whole work in an unmodified form. This would generally be used for something potentially controversial, in order to prevent people from misrepresenting the original work and crediting you misleadingly for something you didn't make, say, or do.
4. NC/Non-Commercial - this is optional and prohibits commercial use of your work or any derivatives of your work. Basically, people can't make money off of your work, or off of anything that uses or includes your work. They don't, however, have to use a CC license for derivative works unless ND is also specified in the license.

Those licences can be combined in any arbitrary way. So for instance, a CC BY-NC-SA licence would allow anyone to use and make derivatives of your work only for non-commercial purposes as long as the credit you and release any derivatives under an identical license. And you could take legal action against them if they broke any part of this agreement. However, you could not take legal action against them just for creating a derivative of your work, or for using your work in the first place, since neither of those things are covered by the license.

However, regardless of what license you use (be it Creative Commons or any other license), even if it's a license that doesn't require people to explicitly credit you for your work, you can always take legal action against someone who claims to be the author/creator of your original work.

Also, you never have to "file for copyright." Copyright is something that is automatically granted any time an original work is created. Every original work is protected under copyright law unless the creator explicitly says otherwise. And you never, ever have to "defend" your copyright for it to remain valid. It's always the creator's choice whether to take legal action against a violation of copyright, unless they've explicitly granted those rights to some third party (which is pretty much where copyright law becomes a horribly complicated and incomprehensible mess, so I won't go into that now).
Notebook Memories, the debut album from yours truly, is currently up on my bandcamp for free. Any feedback, encouragement, hate mail, etc. is highly appreciated! Even just listening is pretty cool of you tbh.

You do relize who I am, right? Not being a dick, but just pointing that out. I'm generally a nice dude, but people just piss me off and it is somethong I can't help. I'm trying so hard not to, but my button is pushed so much.

No need to get argumentative, you were asked not to swear, so maybe you should do that. Don't make excuses,

Honestly, I don't realize who you are Ricky. To me, your really just another user on the forum I'm not too familiar with yet. Not trying to be mean when I day that, but that's just kind of how it is right now.

Also, keep going Freewave.




I didn't realize how long dubstep takes to make. I'm not even making dubstep, I'm making just a modulated bass line and that's taken forever just to try to get to sound ok

If the American is good at making music for animu, I don't see why not :/

Unrelated. Why was there so much comotion around swearing anyway? Imo swearing has its time and place, and that's when your angry with something and wanna vent that anger. Ricky was clearly angry, so that makes Rickys post wrong thread, not wrong vocab.
Anyway, that might just be my super lax views on swearing... I also don't see this part of the forum as a place to speak formaly... Idk. I just think you ppl overreacting over just a few swears.

I feel your pain, bro, but at the same time it's not THAT hard. t's just the bass lines and synths. You don't have to be like that poser hipster nerdy guy with thick-as-fuck glasses to make dubstep.
