Spammers seriously RUIN soundcloud for me

angryrancor · **Posted:** Sat Dec 03, 2011 11:16 am

Backstory: On my track "Strange Tension - Dubstep remix" I get a comment @ the beginning of the track from "TheSocialytes" with no other content but promotion for some mashup contest they are doing. I delete it.

2 days later they post the exact same comment in the exact same place. I respond by posting a comment @ the beginning of one of their track saying "DO NOT EVER COMMENT SPAM MY TRACKS AGAIN, SPAMMERS!" or something to that effect, and I receive this gem in my message inbox almost immediately:

lol. I dont understand how some of these meta-people with internet troll bots and nothing to say hassle so many people into following them.

latest redonk spamming tactics on sc... i receive a PM saying: "hey there, i see you commented on the (track name) by (artist name) and i KNOW you will love my music. please check it out and see what you are missing." haha. horrible.

I recently got a spam message in my email asking me to check their soundcloud because I liked slugabed's music.

its getting a little ridiculous

argh...

I am always telling people NOT to promote themselves that way. Something I tell new producers when they ask me how I get input on my tracks is to send personal EMAIL to someone if they can (or facebook)

People don't realize that there are actually tons of people willing to listen if put forth the effort to actually show you care more about people liking your music than about the amount of plays you have....

I also got one after posting on Slugabeds track, have also had a few similar to that recently. fair play for having a go back, I normally just report for spam and delete.

Agree its got worse, although i wouldn't say it ruins Soundcloud for me yet, its miles way from the myspace cockup. I'm guessing there are bots availible now for Soundcloud?

I don't get spam either... but that could because pretty much only my friends listen to my music, which for the record I don't mind if one person enjoys a track I make I'm pretty stoked.

I noticed too a bit of spamming recently and I just reported it to soundcloud.

StrangeFlow · **Posted:** Mon Dec 12, 2011 12:55 pm

ah. i see this is the section for spam..

ahem... "i see you make electronic music. Let me just assume you primarily make 'DUBSTEP' and if so, you should definitely check out http://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/STRANGEFLOW, and check out my newest ep, "What I think Justin Bieber's new Dubstep album Might Sound Like: EP"
and then after that, check out all the beef tracks that Dewey DB and me put together when we got in that vicious lyrical war that re-ignited the whole eastcoast/westcoast tension.. "

did i do it right? I didn't read the full title of this thread, so i dont know if---... OOOOHH, fuck, spammers "RUINED"... ahh, my bad. i thought the word was "RULED" ... hmmm.. ah well. check out my site anyway.
