Goodbye Weasyl, I am done by BobbyThornbody

I have decided, after a week-long conversation with one of the admins, that I can no longer continue to keep my submissions here on this site. After having been told that many of my music submissions were in violation of their policies because of the fact they don't all give proper citation of where I got the backing track, and deciding it's much easier to just remove my submissions since I was told that if I didn't fix it they would be doing it anyway, I have now removed all submissions I have posted on this account and will not be posting here any further. I will be keeping this account to watch and fave people's submissions but I will not post here anymore.

Frankly, I could understand the issue if I had been told of this violation when the stuff was first submitted, but several of the submissions were years old, and there were more than 150 submissions that I would have had to add the citations to, and since they said it was MY responsibility to discover which ones were, I found it much less painful and problematic just to remove them all.

Frankly, if a site is going to hold someone in violation of their rules, they have the right to say 'hey, this is a violation' but to insist that a user go back through hundreds of submissions and fix them all is insane. A simple warning of hey, from now on can you make sure you cite where you got the tracks please' makes things much easier and more manageable.

Weasyl's admins had asked me to go through every retroactive submission I had and fix them all, which wouldd take days and days of work because I don't even remember where I got most of the backing tracks. At least with Fur Affinity, all I was asked was to make sure that my FUTURE submissions had the citations.

The upshot of this is that, yes, I am done submitting things to this site. As a singer, I don't feel the hassle I would have to go through makes it worth posting here anymore.

This account will be kept to watch and fave things as I said, but there will be no new content posted.

Weasyl, I am done.
