First step? my dear friend this is merely something i was dicking around with, i have got plenty more music that is better than this with much more attention to detail, but i don't share it here because frankly when it comes to music i don't trust a gamers opinion

If you don't even trust a gamer's opinion after all, why is you're posting to contribute stuff in a mod forum, a mod which is played by... let's see.... how are these strange guys called.... gamers? :o
Well, I think this thread was fun to read, after all.
I had needed a good laugh for some time now, thank you :-)

You don't like this forum because people call your work for what it is and point out areas to improve? You'll never progress with that kind of mindset.
And lose the condescending attitude, dear friend; the real world has a lot to teach you. Get your first professional composing gig and have the client reject your track. An elitist attitude will get you NOWHERE.
Mangley:
The backlash of arrogance really paints you for what you are Crackshot.
True creativity requires that you embrace criticism, for your own sake. People who ignore criticism often believe they are better at something than they really are.
Understandably, you probably weren't expecting such a harsh critique, but I put that down to you not quite realising who these fellows are. They apply the same level of criticism to what they do themselves every day.
You have the potential to develop your skills. The fact that you have learned to compose tracks, even if not refined, already puts you in a minority as most people don't know the very first thing about it. That doesn't, however, mean you're great at it.
If you're serious about developing your skills you should be seeking criticism rather than acting like you just shat out a gold nugget.

Indifference and aggression can be used as a social mechanisms to "save face" in situations where credibility is being questioned.
If you really didn't care about the forum, then you wouldn't have put your song on here to receive feedback.
Writing music is an on-going process, and Mangley was exactly right in saying that it's important to embrace criticism. Though sometimes harsh, it is done with the intention of helping the person improve at what they do.
It's important to remember that there is always more to learn. The reason why the developers for this game are so talented is because they've taken the time to make tons of mistakes and learn from them.
It's good to be confident and enjoy what you do, but it shouldn't be extrapolated to a point where you put others down.
