Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
I know there are people who definitely don't agree with me, and this may have been ranted about before - but CAN WE STOP GETTING NEW 4-MINUTE LONG WIDGET SONGS IN THE ROCK SECTION FROM ARTISTS WITH LITTLE TO NO TALENT THAT HAVE A BUNCH OF OFFBEAT NOTES FOR THEIR STEPFILES?
Well, some artists definitely have talent, but there are others that suck, and we all have to listen to them for 4 minutes while trying to AAA something. We have enough widget songs in that Rock section, please lay off on them unless some really cool, popular, and ultra-talented band signs on to FFR, just for example (because everyone loves them) Dragonforce.

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Well, some of these songs like that piss me off too because all those emo songs sound exactly the same and they're all 4 minutes long, then some of them have (light) (standard) and (heavy) modes with the heavy song being a very easy AAA for me just so I have to waste 12+ minutes of my life. BUT... it IS bringing more people to the site which is what Synth is going for, so FFR will almost certainly continue to add the songs.

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Widgets get FFR traffic. More traffic means more users, more users means more subscribers. More subscribers means more money to improve the game, the servers, and the content.
There is no way whatsoever to try and argue that widgets are bad. Now, as for why widgets are full of rock songs. The best method of contacting bands to look for permission to use their songs is via the internet. The best way to do that is through myspace. Rock bands are far and away the most common users of myspace music, they are the most popular genre of music with myspace users, and thus have the largest number of friends and views to give FFR the most exposure possible. So in order to make the best use of widgets to get the best gain in traffic, rock bands are the best choice of genre to contact. This is all well and good, but the part that seems to bug people the most is that those songs find their way into FFR itself. What people seem to miss is that in order for these bands to put our widgets onto their myspace, we have to give them the benefit of exposing their music to our userbase. We benefit hugely from a band with 25,000 friends having a direct link to FFR on their page, especially when you multiply that by 20, 50, 100 such bands. The best way to encourage them to give us that benefit (and in fact, the primary claim made when contacting bands as far as I've ever seen) is to expose their music to our 1.4 million users. And the only way to reliably promise them that is to include their songs directly into the game. It is unfortunate to be a user who doesn't like that particular genre or style, but there are a very large number of songs in the game outside the rock genre, and anybody who wants to try it can always step songs that aren't rock songs. But the benefit that widgets have already provided to the site as a whole is already more than substantial enough to justify any amount of user complaint about songs they don't have to play, on a game that is completely free. |

And all that widget is really for is for bands to put on their MySpace so that their fans can play an easy stepfile to their music. And 95% of those MySpacers don't really care if the file's off-beat. EDIT: Ninja'd by devonin and his unmatched powers of tl;dr

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Stop complaining, if you hate the easy rock songs, I got a permission a while back from 2bands that have huge chances at making great FGO/FMO files.
Cellador,The Berzerker.

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Most of you people totally misread what I was thinking. I'm not complaining about widgets, I'm complaining about widget songs being IN the Rock genre of the game. Having widget songs in the game doesn't bring people to FFR, having the widgets does. So keep the widgets, but keep the songs out of FFR The Game.
WIDGETS ARE GOOD. STUPID ROCK SONGS THAT COME FROM WIDGETS THAT ARE PLACED INTO THE ACTUAL GAME ARE BAD.

Well, I'm glad you agree with me, but I hate rap, so i'm going to have to disagree with you there I'm totally a-ok fine with rock songs in FFR if they have good stepcharts and they are good songs (even if they are 4 minutes long) but the problem is, so little of the current songs in Rock have those. Rock is my favorite genre of music, but most of the songs representing the genre in FFR are simply not good.

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Yeah, Celldweller songs are some of the only good ones. But Switchback [Light] shouldn't be in the game, only Heavy.

Re: Can we stop getting new Rock songs?
Well thats unfair to say because we do have alot of new people here that arent so good at hard songs. Least having a fair amount of easier songs will keep them interested and around much longer untill they are able to play tougher ones.

Can anyone tell me whether a Panic At The Disco song will be in the game? Because if one does make it, I'm going to be deeply disappointed.
