Welcome to The Freedom of Music Guild Music is a free source of entertainment. Everyone has their own right to enjoy what they want to. Unfortunately, people tend to cause problems and always state that their opinion is better than the rest.THAT IS NOT TRUE! People have the right to listen to what music suits them best. If others have a problem with that, then they need to suck it up. The world can't be focused on rock just because you like it or it can't bow down to hip-hop because he likes it. People need to learn to tolerate other views of music and not make a big deal about it.
The main goal of this guild is to learn to accept the views of others. Even if you hate a genre of music with a burning passion, you don't have to listen to it, so you're fine. As long as you're able to not bother with it and accept that it's there, then you can do well here.Table of Contentsi. Rules ii. Forums iii.. Crew iv. F.A.Q v. Warning System vi. Black List vii.

Guild Rules 1. Tolerate other views and opinions That's the guild's main focus. If someone says "I like AC/DC!" and you hate them to bits, you can either say "I'm not really crazy about them. I dont' think they're that talented" or not say anything at all. In response to that, don't make a big deal. In fact, just blow it over.2. Dont' spam, flame, or troll Flaming is a given, since this guild is against it. Don't post "2PAC FTW!" in a Toby Keith thread. That just makes you look stupid. And don't troll just to be a p***k, either. We'll just take you out in one swift movement.3. Try to be active! Let's try to keep the site active! Try not to join the guild and blow it off!
4. Everyone is equal Unless they need to be, everyone, even the crew, is considered equal. The crew may have more authority over you when they need to assume their role, but other than that they are permitted to go about and freely post as you are as a member.
5. Have fun! That's the most important part.
6. Excuse accidental ignorance If someone says something wrong about a specific type of music, please do not hold a grudge against them and cause them problems. Instead, correct them and make sure everything is fine.
7. Please be active It is looked upon highly to be active! Please show your support in joining this guild and be an active member!

Forums Main Forum Board Here's where all discussion concerning the guild and the announcements will be. Be sure to keep an eye out for anything important!
Rock/Metal Forum Until more money is made for the guild, all talk of rock and metal will belong in this board. Rock is a well known type of music that is based around an electric guitar, bass guitar, and drums. The sound varies depending on the style.
Hip-hop/Rap Place Like rock, all talk of anything related to hip-hop and rap will be put here (Like pop, for example, will have it's own board). Hip-hop and rap often follow a specific beat while an artist lays down a rap that goes with the song. These two are quite popular. The two do vary, though.
International Music Forum Music doesn't only come from english speaking countries. Japan and Spain and all those other places have their own! Discuss that music there!
Video Game/Techno Section Computer made music. This also goes for video game soundtracks and those cool remixes of NES games.
General Discussion/Spam Room Not in a mood for music? Talk about pretty much anything in the GD!
Alternative Rock/Punk Board From the raw energy to the vocal harmonies of alternative rock, all bands that fall into those two are to be discussed here. Punk may get it's own board in the future.
Pop Discussion All those singers like Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears can be talked about here. All Disney related singers go here, too, including the Jonas Brothers.
Country Forums The different style of music. Definately one of the more original styles that doesn't stray too far from bluegrass or blues. Discuss it all here!
Misc. Music Board Did we miss something? Ooops. Well, bring it right here!
Classical Music Forum There is so much to discuss here. Old composers such as Mozart and Bach has such interesting pieces that it is possible to listen to some of their work and identify some work from other bands! Discuss anything about them! This includes orchestras.
Crew Forum Crew Forum. Nuff said.

Crew The guild started out wiht the idea of me, Spoonerismz. I started the idea, but I couldn't have started it out with those who supported the idea, as well. Those people are:
- Angry guitarist from hell http://www.gaiaonline.com/p/13164499
- WhiteDivinity http://www.gaiaonline.com/p/6929176
- Z O M B O T S http://www.gaiaonline.com/p/4320967
- Onixdragon http://www.gaiaonline.com/p/5112391
- Cyros Lugoth http://www.gaiaonline.com/p/4682555
These guys, along with me, are the founding members. They are founders and should be respected just as much as me and every other member for supporting the same idea.
As the guild grows, more crew members will be added. To be a crew member, you must follow the rules, be kind, respect others, and not cause any problems. We won't add because you're our friend or whatever. Nothing is biased.

F.A.Q. 1. Someone just said I was stupid because I like *insert band/art*! HELP!We'll talk to them. If we don't notice a problem, just go to a crew member and tell them if it's bothering you. Don't fight with the person and try and be tough. It'll just cause a problem. 2. I want to post somewhere but I don't know where to!If there is a topic that's based around what you're looking for, then post there. If not, a crew member will redirect you. 3. I'm about to post a topic but I'm not sure it is in the right forum!A crew member will notice this and move it for you. No worries. 4. So-and-so is getting on my nerves. It's like he's trying to get me in trouble.A crew member will take note of this. If you aren't doing anything wrong, don't make a big deal about it. The person will be talked to. You can notify someone about it so that you can make sure it is taken care of. 5. I think I may be breaking a rule, but I'm not sure if I am!You'll be notified if you are. More questions may be added

Warning System We can't be running around freely in anarchy. Otherwise, this whole guild would be a waste. It's pretty basic.
GREEN ZONE Everyone is here upon joining the guild. Try your best to stay here!
YELLOW ZONE People enter the yellow zone when they break a small rule. It's not really a big deal, but if you continue...
RED ZONE Like in Guitar Hero, when you're in th ered zone, you're in danger of failing. Continue to fail and you're gone and on the black list. Simple as that.
If you enter the yellow or red zone, but cease to be a problem, you'll go back into the green zone. Try your best to stay there. I don't wanna see anyone getting in trouble. DEPENDING ON HOW BAD YOUR ACT IS, YOU MAY SKIP THE YELLOW ZONE AND GO RIGHT TO THE RED ZONE!

BLACK LIST When members go beyond the red zone and are kicked out of the guild, they get put on here. As of now, nobody is on the list. Let's keep it that way.
