Little update from yours truly
« on: Today at 03:18:18 AM »
I've been watching this whole thing with Christopher-2010 yelling at people go on for a while, and its really been pissing me off for a long while, so for now, I'm gonna take a break from this site for a while. I'll still be digitizing the Video Moods 78s for the March 2025 lot post (As well as other stuff as well), but I won't be here until everything with this is fixed. I will still be uploading tracks on my YouTube channel (Wilkins' Library Music Archive) while I'm away from the site, so if you wanna check it out, here's the link:

youtube.com/channel/UCGrk25usi9aDb4rNS1CBi0Q

I will also be still uploading tracks on my Internet Archive account (Wilkins Guy) as well, here's the link for that as well:

archive.org/details/@wilkins_guy?sort=-addeddate

When all of this is over, I will return to the site. So for now, farewell LMT.
Peace, Love, and Library Music!

I don't blame you.
It's really disturbing what this site has kind of turned into.
Of course, I can't be talking as I haven't been here long, but I can sense that LMT was not originally intended to be like this.
To be honest, I might even take a break too.
I hope this gets better.

I've not said anything regarding it, but the uptick in ungratefulness and "thank you, but give me more" mindset among newer users has been noticeable, and it's depressing to see this kind of mentality creep its way in here.

A lot of these types of people are only interested in self-serving, instant gratification, usually brought on by an upbringing of never being told "no" due to any variety of factors. Not to say those who may have impaired development and/or developmental disabilities are all like this, far from it, but those who do behave this way tend to be the loudest, the greediest, and the most ungrateful.

Personally I'd say for the longevity of this forum that further instances of behavior like this in new users should warrant some kind of punishment to show that acting like this has no place in this community. Some circles of the Internet (namely Twitter) will try and claim "but gatekeeping is bad!", but all too often bad actors in communities are not kept away or weeded out early enough, and said community will eat itself alive and become a shell of what it once was.

We shouldn't necessarily seek and destroy with trigger-happy fingers, but to keep this community stable, ingrates should be dealt with accordingly, no matter what conditions they may have or are dealing with, because that's no excuse to act like the people here who aren't made of money and don't have every library album ever produced owe you anything.
