A few people have said that they prefer a forum that just has one massive catergory - where all the posts are contained on ONE section, ie. one MASSIVE forum/heading - as opposed to how it is now with the several sub-sections (News, Gigs...).

If enough people prefer the ONE section/page system, I could juggle it about a little.
One forum under one heading.

Maybe, I could put the current sub-catergories (News, Reviews, Gigs, etc.) into the ONE main page, but PIN them to the top, so they don't get moved down the page when new posts appear.

Myself, I like having the sub-sections, as it makes it easier to browse for a specific interest, rather than stumbling blindly upon 100s of varied posts.

What do you thinks?

While you're thinking, look at this, please:

I prefer the separate forums - keeps things nicely organised. Also, as we get more and more members, with the one page system posts would quickly get lost and people would miss out. Separate forums also save you from the trauma of twaling through posts you have no interest in.

I agree, Dr.

Let's see what the other beasts think.

I think we should keep the separate sections too

Ohh, that was my first time ever using fast reply - I'm liking this new forum Richard biggrin.gif

Yeah the separate sections are best.. the only trouble is like when people post news in the general one, which is understandable but troublesome if you know what I mean wink.gif

I like seperate forums but I think it could be scaled down a little for now atleast, mebbe bring it down to a simple Music/Off Topic/Gigs & Reviews, bringing it down from 7 to 3... 'Twould still be easy enough to navigate but it would concentrate things more. Having more than a handful of seperate forums only really works when you've got hundreds and hundreds of people coming here every day, then people tend to haunt a particular section... 'Tis just my preference though, I'm not overly bothered how it's set up.

BTW: Thanks alot Richard, using the different address for the forum is working fine... That .tk thing must just be a strange AOL glitch, I use Firefox as a browser and it still wouldn't work, nor would IE... Anyways thanks.

That's quite a good idea is that, narrowing it down to 3... well done aco

I guess it's because I'm using the actual forum URL and skipping over any welcome pages but I can't find a link to the chat room... Anyone care to point me in the right direction? Or am I not *special* enough to know where it is?

... Oh god it's just like school all over again, everyone else went to the *special* bus stop and left me behind... sad.gif
