Updates & Suggestions

orfeo wrote:...as would a general spot for discussing music!

I get terribly abstract sometimes, and I'm not always wanting to talk about either a particular artist or even a particular style of music. Sometimes I'm just talking about... music.

We could do that, yes!

Um, as far as the general forum talk section, I think we are possibly going to keep it to music for a bit. The admins and I wanted to make a forum solely on music. That is not to say that over time we cannot add a general forum. Anyway, I think I or one of the admins will shoot a PM to the other mods and admins to see what they all think, because I do not want to rule it out!

I think it'd be quite difficult to establish a substantial community without some place for miscellaneous discussion. Your decision, of course.

So here's the deal with the general forum situation.

When we all got together to start this forum, we wanted to make sure that we kept it strictly music for a little while. I would definitely think about adding a general section once we have more members. But my concern right now is that the other parts of the forum would be sort of left to gather dust while the general section is very, very active. This forum hasn't even been open for a week yet. I think the plan is (fellow mods and admins, correct me if I am wrong) is to leave things as they are for the time being and in a little while, add the general section if it seems like it becomes a necessity. I just want to make sure people are coming to chill here to discuss music.

+1 well said

The Admin & Mod team is always open for suggestions and we are not ruling the option of the addition of a general forum. Remember that the forum was created under the banner of music:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] And Mitch is right about filling the music content first before we lose balance and not have a purpose in this forum.

I agree Mitch.

Update: Working on new smilies.

I LOVE YOU thanks

Which ones would you like, I can help you get the ones you want

We have a lot of new ones now

Hey, if we make a general music section, what would one put in there?

Thoughts?

Maybe we could move the Who Are You Listening To over there?

And move artist suggestions over there too.

If there are any general news in the music industry or with an artists, I suppose those threads can be made there as well.

Glad you like it
These new ones are fun fun fun

As a music forum, we were in dire need of this one

sounds good to me!

Suggestion: Is it possible to increase the size of the private messaging inbox? For moderators & admins, there is an increasing amount of messages being sent through the PM inbox. Many important ones may need to be kept for archive purposes.

i just checked it out. 50 is the max unfortunately. but there is a way to save them (dont ask me how), the savebox has room for another 50 i believe....

No worries. For people interested, the easiest way to save these messages is to copy and paste the messages in some sort of word editor, notepad, textedit, ms word, etc.

I am heading off to do some deleting

Good news everyone!

I just found out that you can save your messages in the SAVEBOX.
The SAVEBOX has a capacity of 50 messages as well. (like the inbox, which also stores 50 messages) So theoretically speaking, you can have a maximum of 100 messages stored on the forum.

Keep in mind that once your INBOX has 50 messages (100% capacity) you will no longer be able to receive private messages. (The sender will receive an error message) So remember to move them to your SAVEBOX or delete them once in a while.
