We all had this problem at least once. I wanted to quit Newgrounds because of criticism, then came back after many people wanted me to stay. Don't call yourself a douche bag, that's a little too strong to call yourself :)

lol MYSPACE?? you must have been looking really hard XD

welcome back. I've repeatedly maintained that NewGrounds is the best large-scale (if you can call it that) site to upload audio for amateur musicians, if you're willing to interact with the community one way or another.

Well, don't beat yourself up too much, we all do it. But yeah, unless you put a loooooooooooooooot of effort into it, the soundcloud community is shit since they got rid of groups. and you have to look for groups that aren't going to fuck you over with your own rights. This hasn't happened to mee yet, but collabs lead to problems. I'm always down for a collab, but it never pans out anymore because I just get super paranoid over the amount of work I did do vs what I didn't. Newgrounds is super amazing to be apart of, and soundcloud's community is going to be a little cold shoulder, but pretty much have the same outcome of reality. But all of us musicians are a dime a dozen, we're broke because not very many people even listen to anything but radio and maybe buy that one album they really like. They're not crazy like me and go and try to find everything to listen to.

Everyone goes through ups and downs, and everyone makes decisions that happen to be not so right. It's good that this particular decision is not irrevertable. I'm really happy to see (and hear) you here again.

It's good to have other outlets, but NG will be your number one home. ;)
Wow Myspace! That site still going?

Newgrounds is a pretty simple community for amateurs. We give each other criticism, and we might have our work shared in a game or cartoon which is nice. You could even collect an army of followers that are like minded on NG. Those other websites have those weird politics anyways. You're a good artist SnowTeddy, it's a pleasure to listen to your jams and we're glad you've come back.

It's so easy to get the community together on newgrounds... there is forums, there is news posts, there is all types of ways to get civilians to listen to your music. I barely get musicians in my door on soundcloud, but that's usually whose liking my music. https://soundcloud.com/mintlab is a good example of what you'll find on soundcloud nowdays because they took groups away. Groups allowed people only to repost music. Nothing else has aspired for communication, and they're in debt all the time, so it really isn't easy to give that bandwidth to a system like that. NG has been around for a lot longer, and their expansion to games and movies, not just art and music, let's civilians get a whole array of fun. I only get like 1:100 civilians per musicians on soundcloud. :C That's why I moved over here though, because it is easier to get connected, and organized.
