    ^ true story! but i think criticism can be helpful.

    that gives me an idea, what if instead of writing it all yourself - you could cover a topic in brief in a thread and then ask other djtt members to help fill in the blanks. that way people wouldn't just be criticizing your efforts, but adding to your efforts in a constructive way that benefits what your trying to achieve with this project.

    all the power to you if you'd prefer to take the bull by the horns yourself, but i'm sure many of us have things we could add to help make it a stronger and more true piece.

    It's really nice when a fresh DJ try to explain a wannabe DJ something... They know themselfs better then an old dj would knew both.

    im not sure how to take this, but are you dissing the fact im trying to write up a guide on mixing although i only have <50 hours turntable experience?
    IDK how long this forums been up and if anyones ever tried to do this in the past, but for someone to give up their time to write up something as big as im hoping this will be leaves a bit to be desired do you not think?

    Yes i know this forum is full of full time/part time DJ's who would scrap me in a second, most dont mind answering newbie questions on this forum because its what it is all about, but how often do you see guides trying to explain the fundamelntals of mixing.

    just turn it into a wiki.djtechtools.com with some form of open-source community input, submissions, and editing.

    Go jump off a bridge you sock puppet. Don't you think we know how to DJ if we're members of a DJ forum?
    I have an idea for your next thread. How to tell the difference between CDJ's and 1200's.
