I felt I had to sign up, just to post this message.

I know you're all going to be huge fans of Eisley and want to promote them as best you can, which is fair enough, but do me a favour here - stop spamming the Straylight Run message board every five minutes. I'm tired of deleting or locking your posts. We have a thread dedicated to Eisley and one is enough. Your overactive street team is admirable but I'd rather you left it at that.

Thanks,

- Sarah (SR moderator)

Hey Sarah, sorry about that. A lot of that is probably from e-merge which is kind of a different beast than this forum. I'll make sure that the appropriate people see this and hopefully get out a message to tone it down. The last thing we want is to have Eisley associated with "spammers."

the moderator from the Straylight Run message board signed up to Laughing City, specifically to post this message. so i ask you, please do NOT spam on other people's message boards. if we have people doing this, Eisley will get given a bad name. Is it worth the risk of Eisley getting a bad name and not being popular just so you can get your grubby little hands on a t-shirt for free? i'll leave that for you to decide.
please, don't do it.
thank you.
if anyone witnesses this happening, tell karina about it. this team is about spreading the music. not pissing people off for free merch.

Good call, penguin. I'll make a post about it on the Myspace Eisley group, too.

Hi Sarah, I run the e-merge team. There are strict rules on there against spamming (we are aware of its adverse effect so we do not endorse it) and there is no Objective to post Eisley on other message boards. (we tried it once for a couples day last year and it got out of control so it was taken down).

I cannot stop members from posting their links but I will remind them, as always, to be more careful and respectful when posting in other communities.

I sincerely apologize on behalf of the whole team...

Thanks a lot. I expected to be jumped on hahah, "Go away, leave our band alone" stylee but it's nice to know you're a friendly bunch.

I quite like Eisley, anyway. I know that they're of a similar style to Straylight Run, so I'm guessing that most people that post over there will have heard of them anyway, making promotion a bit redundant.

I think most people posted on the Straylight board because they also won the "Who's Next" contest.

Myself, I'm not against posting on other bands messageboards as long as its done in unobtrusive manner. You have to make sure that someone hasn't posted the same stuff already. In addition, its wise to post in the "other music" section of the messageboard.

Thank you for your kind and courteous manner in asking people not to be an Eisley pest promoter on other boards.

Being the mom of 4/5ths of Eisley, I come to their board everyday, and it would get sooooo annoying if other band's were doing their promoting on the Eisley board. We do have the SHAMELESS and MUSIC sections for people to promote or introduce other music.

I hope that you won't get more improper promotion on your board, and please know that Eisley would not endorse such a thing.

Best wishes to STRAYLIGHT RUN.

Sincerely,
kd
