The Real Deal with mixes... (?? for mods)

So... can only paying members post mixes in the crate digging forum? Or only long-time regulars? Dudes with 500+ posts?I'm just curious because I've posted two mixes here, only to have the thread deleted. The first time I was basically a total newbie here, so I figured hey, that's fine, whatever. But since then, I've seen other mixes get posted here (besides RAJ's thread about dCastillo's ) that haven't been taken down.I'm not trying to sell the mixes. I'm not trying to advertise myself or my own music. I'm just trying to share a little music with the other members of this board. There's so much other bullshit that gets talked about in this forum, I'm really confused as to why a posted mix gets the delete while other music postings are fine.Anyways, I'm not trying to cause shit. I'm just wondering about the proper protocol for posting a free mix that I want to share with people.Any mods wanna clear this up for me?Thanks!!Kyle

I figured other people might like to know as well.
But now I also realize that my mix post didn't get deleted. I'm just an idiot. Fuck.
I'm havin' a baaaad day... lol
But I'd still like to know the official SS rules about this.
saying, I think you do need to be around for a minute if you're posting a mix
BUT, if you have a "dope mix" I highly doubt it will be deleted
like anything in life, this can be extremely subjective
whoa this stereo console with the record player is bleeding and I can hear some radio station, hah
NOW PRAYING ORIGINAL ESG COME AWAY ON 99 THAT I BOUGHT IN NYC AND WAS ONCE SOLD AND MADE IN NYC AND I AM POSTING ON SS FROM DOPE PAD IN NYC SAYING
THIS IS FREAKIN SIKKKKKKK
I HEART NYC
Cool. That's kinda what I figured.
I guess I've either been here long enough, or I've got a coveted "dope mix".
I just saw dwele, he was freestyling lyrics, dropping jewels at honey dips in the front row!
yes I got my nag champa on
that doesn't make sense to me.
i can understand someone getting flamed for showing up with zero posts and asking for samples, asking for mp3s, asking for this and that, complaining about the board, etc... cause nobody is benefitting from their presence.
but if someone wants to show up out of the blue and share some music and actually contribute something worthwhile to the board, why should we stop them?
The first thread I ever started was a mix. Not only did it not get deleted, but the one soulmarcosa (he rocks!) replied with, "Best first post ever?"
No rhyme or reason, I suppose.
(swoon) You had me at "here's a mix I did."
No, Mark.
If somebody is posting up MUSIC for people to DOWNLOAD for FREE, they should have all the freedom in the world to do so. We should never discourage any selfless contributions of this nature. (RECORD RELATED + ENTERTAINMENT + EDUCATION = a rare thing these days.)
But you need to have been here a while before you try to start selling stuff. I hope that's understood.
people...POST YOUR MIXES!!!!!!!!!!
Beatchemist, don't know what happened to your first mix, but if it was deleted, I apologize for whoever made that action.
Nah no worries... it's all good.
Yeah I'm not a real digger... at least not around these parts. I'm alright with my little-dudeness. No fronting on my side of things. I just love music - both listening to it and making it. Hope you like the mix and I'm glad you enjoyed that edan remix. I'm really proud of it.
