  4. If applicable, why are you thinking about leaving?
  5. What makes this site different than other music sites, such as Sound Click?
  6. How long are your visits here on average?
  7. How is the communication factor on this site? Is it easy to contact and make new friends?
  8. Is YC fun?
  9. Is YC boring?
  10. Suggestions on improvement?
If you can think of other questions for the questionnaire, please feel free to PM me or post them in this thread...then answer them.
1. I was (and still am) interested in becoming a videogame composer, but I needed a place where I could post my creations and have a musically literate group of people tell me what they thought was good and bad about my pieces.

2. Admitedly I wanted to leave after a little while because the people seemed very cold to me and didn't seem to like respond to my pieces very well. But since, I've met a few people on here who I like enough to consider friends.

3. I'm not sure I understand this question very well. So I'm going to say no.

5. I have a sound click account and let me go on record as saying, this site is MUCH different. People on Soundclick in general seem to be less intelligent and seem to not have such a great musical understanding. Not to mention nearly half of the people on that site are into hip hop (the scourge of music's existence IMO). On YC, people seem (in general) more intelligent and have better taste in music.

6. I used to only spend about 10 minutes every other day on this site, now I probably spend a good two hours a day.

7. Making friends on this site is rather strange. Some people seem very friendly and open while others seem reserved and condescending (I'm not naming any names but you know who you are). It's very easy to make friends with the open and friendly people, and very tough for those who think they are better then everyone else.

8. Besides the first couple of weeks on this site where people seemed very cold, this site has always been fun for me. Espically since I discovered the wonders of the Off-Topic forum.

9. Hardly ever.

10. I think this site is good as is. The only thing I can say is, if you keep the things the way they are now, I will stay with this site for many years.
