Musicians Exchange Forum Rules
To keep the Musicians Exchange a positive and productive space for everyone, please read and follow these rules:
1. Respect and Professionalism
Treat others with respect and kindness. We’re all here to make connections, so no harassment, abusive language, or derogatory comments.
Constructive feedback is welcome, but be respectful. If a listing isn’t the right fit for you, simply move on.
2. Keep it Relevant
This forum is strictly for musicians looking to collaborate or join a band, as well as bands seeking members. Please keep all posts relevant to these goals.
Posts unrelated to music or unrelated commercial ads will be removed.
3. Clear and Honest Postings
Be honest about your skills, influences, and experience level. This helps everyone find the right match.
Include key details in your posts, such as the role or instrument you’re seeking/offering, genres you’re into, and any specific requirements.
4. No Spam or Self-Promotion
Do not post excessive self-promotions, links to unrelated content, or spam. This forum is about building connections, not advertising.
You may link to your music profiles (SoundCloud, Bandcamp, etc.) only if relevant to your post.
5. Safety First
For your safety, avoid sharing personal information like your home address or financial details publicly.
Use caution when meeting in person. Arrange to meet at a neutral, public location (like The Bunkhouse) until you feel comfortable.
6. Age Requirements
This forum is open to individuals 16 and older. If you are under 16, please have a parent or guardian contact us before posting.
7. Stay Positive and Open-Minded
Our music scene is built on diverse sounds and styles. Stay open to connecting with musicians from different backgrounds and influences.
Remember, every post has the potential to create something new. Let’s make it a welcoming space for all.
