Kevin you dont need to explain yourself or anything anymore mate you deleted your stuff fine, its yours to delete...people dont like it, fine, i understand (anyone that finds anything interesting here they think they can learn from should be downloading it and saving it to their computer...its what i do anyway, i saved falsetas from you, i saved tutorial video on sound from Todk, i saved Ricardo's flamenco chords and his examples of accompanying...if its an exercise or anything i might wanna learn from later...or something interesting someone said about theory, i make sure i have acces to it when i need it)...but it was yours to delete...that's it , no explonation necessary....even trying to explain or justify i think u did too much and gave them what they think its their right to publicly attack you for it... if i wanted to delete something of mine for whatever reason i would ask for no permission or try to convince people of why if they didn't wanna hear it "i deleted it because it was my post and wanted to...fell free to do whatever you like with your own posts" Even if the reason is what they are accusing you of ...a business decision " - Yes it makes no sense to try to charge for it ...my own stuff...when it can be found here for free because i was once generous and wasent planing to do this website or to try and charge." you didn't have to but tried to offer an explonation they dont wanna believe you or wanna hear it...that's all you can do...the reasons dont really matter, you have the right to do whatever you like with your own shared content I think its a little unfair of some members here to treat you this way because u chose to delete your own posts...why ? because you once contributed and shared ? if you'd never shared or contributed here there would be no problem...so people are attacking you now for being generous once or for trying to earn some money from knowledge acquired through your own hard work ? if you gave nothing, did nothing, contributed nothing just lurked..no one would have any reason to attack you...but you chose to get involved and now that makes you the bad guy ? I can relate to how you are feeling cause Its kind of the same situation i find myself in with a singer in my city....you become the bad guy for doing when u didnt have too I used her for every single gig, other people didn't, used her when they needed her and when they could get someone else they didnt... so it was all business with them, we formed a friendship, i liked her very much as a person.. but the time came when for reasons beyond my control i couldn't use her for one particular show.( it wasent cause of budget, i would have sacrificed my own to have her in as i always do, i always put my own pay last, to make sure i have a good show first, is cause we were given a set number of performers allowed...and i had to turn the initial group of 11 into 7 so i had to cut a few performers, i hated doing it !! but i had to...others understood ...they probably didn't like it either but understood)..at first i was gonna turn the festival down, in fact i did... because of this restrictions they put on me... but she was one of the people that encouraged me that its a good opportunity for me and to reconsider and do what they ask me..to not let it pass me by Now... I am !! the worst guy in the world, I am the bad guy....I who used her for every other gig even when I didn't need her cause I had other singers featured that I flew in from interstate, sacrificed my own pay to make sure shes in to out of loyalty and so she dosent feel like I just use her only when i have no other options... but now she will talk to everyone else but me...I am the worst guy for not using her ONCE...than this people that used her only when they needed her and she didn't expect it of them...they are ok, i am the bad guy..i am the one that betrayed her.. the more i tried to explain to her and make her understand the situation and that it was only this one time ...the more she didn't wanna hear it and gave me the cold shoulder ...so i gave up...besides this one show i had never done one without her, she was always the first one i asked..out of everyone doing shows in my city i am the only one that can say that, everyone else used her as they needed her...but that's ok, some battles you just cant win the more you do and the more u give the more is expected of you... no good deed goes unpunished
