Ideas and suggestions

Would people be interested in band interviews? I would be.

summers wer not interviewing you, your quest for internet stardom has gon to far

Hells yeah, I think interviews are actually essential. Gay man saying, "You're fired." at the end of the interview not required.

???

Do you mean Alan Sugar?

I think he is straight mate.

Hey, Oscar Wilde was married. He loves the cock.

I'm pretty sure he's not loving it any more.

Oscar Wilde had some questionable sexual practices (no I don't mean being gay), but still Ballad of Reading Gaol is shit hot.

I'd say that's something to do with the size of your screen / the resolution. How big is it / what resolution do you run?

1024*768 on firefox if that changes anything

I had a bit of trouble with it and found that holding ctrl and scrolling the mouse wheel down once or twice fixes everything.

Yeah I think the bar is too long for you screen res. Do what Fletch says. He knows stuff.

i figured that was the standard res at the moment. its not an issue more of an aestetics thing:D

Quote and edit buttons at the BOTTOM of a post?!
What kind of crazy upside-down world is this?!

I've accidently quoted the wrong post on a couple of occasions now. If it's an option, could they be switched to the top of the post instead, as this is the usual standard for most forums.

true dat

Can we get a politics forum/area so we can keep the rest of the forums clear of it and maintain a policy of politics only in that forum and arguments are to stay there.

bit silly

Why is it silly? why have any subforums if it is silly? There's alot of political talk on here so why not give it a subforum so its easier to view topics of conversation. It also means the arguing (and i mean that in the sense of debating etc) can be left out of the general topics forum and people can easily decide whether to talk politics or not by completly ignoring a set subforum.

interviews would be awesome if any artists could be bothered to do one for a forum of 100ish people

sub forums in general are a bad idea, people tend to major in one area of the forum to read/post due to their tasts and prefrances, so many sub forums justs ends up spliting our small reader base even further and limits descution. this being the internet people will post political and more than licaly religious arguments that will iritate and infuriate some of you, if you dont like it dont read it/ dont respond to it, if during a review of a politicaly motivate band some one posts "yeah but comunisms gay int it" ignore them and cary on descusing the album.

my 2 cents

I agree.

cheers bob

i wrote something like that in my original post but then realised that it can all be summed up by the quote.

im sure dimmers could get an interview with someone from random hand, even if its just the drummer

haaaa.

I think bands generally like to be quizzed. It'd probably be in a standard question and answer format, maybe even do a 'posters suggest questions' sort of thing, but it'd generally be smaller bands who deserve a bit more exposure.

Would a weekly poll be a good idea? It doesn't just have to be about music, it could be about anything. It would certainly spark discussion.

Aye! I like the poll suggestion.

I vote yes for a poll.


SEE WHAT I DID THERE?

I just found out that topic titles have to be at least 10 characters.
All I needed to get across the jist of my topic was "Twitter" which it wouldn't allow.

Can you change this to be maybe 3 characters as a minimum, because i'm sure there's other one-word topic titles that would be fine yet fall under 10 characters.
