Ultimate Guitar Archive, also known as Ultimate-Guitar.com or simply UG, is a large guitarist community website including guitar and bass tablature, reviews of music and equipment, interviews with notable musicians, online written and video lessons, and forums. It was started on October 9, 1998 by Eugeny Naidenov - a student of the economic faculty of Kaliningrad State University, Russia.〔(About @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com )〕 ==Community== UG is home of over 10,000,000 registered users.〔(Ultimate Guitar Community - Ultimate Destination for Guitarists )〕 It is a strong community of forum users who frequent the site. The website is regulated by an administrator and moderators which are privileged members who can edit and delete other users comments. Moderators are users that are rewarded for being particularly helpful and knowledgeable in a specific subject and are responsible for moderating forums that focus on the subject they specialize in. Inappropriate words used to be censored by a computer that searched for and replaced undesired words posted within the community, until September 1, 2015, when censorship of curse and swear words was lifted on the website. Community members may also create guitar lessons, and have their approved works published on the website and read by its users. Reviews of albums, DVDs, or gear and news articles can also be submitted by members. Like the tabs, the lessons and column are also rated by users, which attributes towards UG Points (or rather number of contributions), your UG score also increases, or decreases as the members rate your contribution. Although UG encourages participation, they also have a strict guideline and set of rules that all UG users must follow. Members must be over the age of 13 to use the services offered by the site〔(Terms of Use )〕 and only one account is allowed to be made per person.〔(FAQs about account )〕 Strong media is also prohibited from use on the site. Some members of the community have collaborated with other fellow users to develop musical projects via the website's forums and some of these community projects have been released as compilation albums. One of the most notable of these recent projects was the "Blues & Jazz Album II", which featured fourteen original tracks submitted by a number of community members, released for digital download with all profits going to Tipitina's Foundation. The project's community page can be found (here ), and the (digital download ) is available on iTunes. There have been several other collaborative albums made by community members that are available for free download within the forums, including two electronic albums, a rock album and an acoustic album. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ultimate Guitar Archive」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
