The title sums it up.
God bless regular visitors & contributors like Herr Pauli & Martin.
Just sick of 1000++ hits a day with similar download traffic & next to nothing in return.
Admittedly it's not my own music though I toil to bring the best of blog / bootland to a wider audience.... eg the Jam repost conversions / upgrade for tonight took 4hrs alone...
Apologies to Martin & Pauli & I may see you soon when I get all me toys back in me pram.
REMEMBER : Oi have a significantly larger bootleg collection than yow (to paraphrase Harry Enfield - who looks like the Bramhall Nonce) & I could be persuaded to return... though I doubt it you ungrateful CUNTS
I know that feeling mate! I hope you scoop the toys up soon but if not,thanks for a very interesting blog.
ReplyDeletehope to see u back - it's a great blog, cheers mate
ReplyDeleteSad to hear it Mr. Ska :(
ReplyDeleteBut I certainly understand not wanting to put in so much time for so little in return. Apologies for the times I didn't write. Thanks again for all you've done :)

Cant argue with your decision mate thats why im just gonna post when I feel like it rather than feeling obliged to find something good luck and don't be a stranger.
ReplyDeletetotally agree with you manc,i dont get as many hits as you but if you gonna download something then just say thanks!ive stopped downloading at minute due to having that much stuff to listen to i dont need to add to it at the mo,the time it takes to upload and blog it can be used to ebay a bit more!
ReplyDelete100% agreement on your decision, you do your best and for some it is never good enough. Thanks from me for all you have done and whatever you decide to do in the future, may it leave you more contented than this has.
ReplyDeleteAll the best

Oh Skamanc,this is so sad news....
ReplyDeleteYour work is great even without replies from the "Ungrateful Cunts" - DON T GIVE UP -
The "GRATEFUL ONES" are always a minority in this Day-in Day-out stupidity,you know that,KEEP SHARING for the ones who Bless you in a daily basis.
Hope you ll be back soon
Take your time.
Sorry to hear you're packing it in, mate - make sure you stay in touch.
ReplyDeleteThanks for turning me on to Traffic and lots of other stuff.
I know what you mean about getting nothing back. Arecent post of mine has had around 250 downloads so far and about 5 people have said thanks. Others have had over 100 downloads and no one has taken 2 seconds to leave a comment. Anyway, I enjoy running the blog so I'll continue to do so for the time being.
Anyway, thanks again mate - to you and your blog contributors.
Cheers

Thanks to each & evry one of you for the above comments. I've also had a load of e-mails - again, thanks for these.
ReplyDeleteI've decided to continue with the blog, at least for the time being. So, it's business as usual, as the blog seems to mean such a lot to so many people, myself included.
I'm not religious, but I can't think of an alternative to saying "Bless You All".
Thanks for continuing the blog. I have to own up as one of the idiots who never left a comment. Won't do it again. I've had some fantastic stuff from here and I want to say Thanks!!! Cheers Fatbhoyjim
ReplyDeleteThe real problem Jim was the anonymous malicious e-mailer. I had a bee in me bonnet yesterday anyway & when I got a message from him I just went nuclear...
ReplyDeleteSkamanc, lovely to have you back.
ReplyDeleteThe thing with anonymous malicious e-mailers is that they are 100% cowards, gutless wankers and not worth the shit on your shoe.
Great thing about your e-mail is block sender. Banish the numpty twonk to your block sender list and remember a lot of people appreciate your blog.
All the best
Thanks again for the growing number o comments. I have blocked the lon as a sender tough he's been using various addresses & prividers. Bit of a electronic stalker apparently...
ReplyDeleteshould set up his own site : nonces r us
I've downloaded a few, but haven't always left comments each time. I'm really pleased you have decided to give it another go. Even if I don't download, I'm always interested in the eclectic mix that you blog.
ReplyDeleteIf you do continue, consider it lesson learnt and will comment each time I download.
With much gratitude.

Know the feeling, even when I called it a day with the music blogging only 1 person said thanks despite over 100k visitors and about 10k downloads :(
ReplyDeleteGlad you've carried on though as I wouldn't have found ya :)
Have been giving it a miss for the last 2 years so got some catching up to do.
Thanks for the stuff I've found tonight, gonna go through the bluebeat stuff to see if there is any I haven't got .. cheers :)
