Music and Movie Section ?

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 05:44:13 PM

Just an idea I've had for a while . . . .

As many of us share similar (

) tastes in Music and Film.

And as a way to expand the Forum I'm suggesting a M&M (

) Section if it's possible to do so.

Could include "reviews" etc . . . Must listen to stuff . . . Any up coming Gigs etc . . . .

HOWEVER

I'm NOT suggesting it should be used as an excuse for a "Song of the moment" thread.

Such threads should be removed from the forum immediately and their posters strung up.

How about setting up Banter as a Subtitle and then separate 'banter' style forums under it

i.e.
Music & Film
Games
General Garbage
etc.

Just a point why was this posted ith the news section surely it should be in the sugestions section

Jamieg285 · January 10, 2006, 05:52:29 PM

Indeed

Jamieg285 · January 10, 2006, 05:53:55 PM

Good thing I got these moderator buttons for emergencies like this.

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 05:56:20 PM

Any way.

The reason I suggest it as a "Stand alone" section is to spread the postings a little thinner.

A Thread can get lost in a week at our rate of posting.

Also, from a Visitors point of view there would be more to visually offer on the front page.

And that can only be good.

Jamieg285 · January 10, 2006, 05:58:23 PM

Well I was hoping that people would suggest some suitable Banter sub-forum titles...

Jamieg285 · January 10, 2006, 05:58:49 PM

I'd need more dount icons

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 05:59:31 PM

I Just think, although it's not directly car-related, it's not really banter either.

It would be a forum in it's own right, complete with it's own donut.
It would be grouped under a Bold (non-forum) subtitle of Banter

I see, but I don't think we want to spread our selves too much. If it ain't cars or MKB related, it's just banter IMO. We can just categorise it a little.

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 06:01:42 PM

Ahh, get ya'.

Good call.

So, yeah, we do need to find more sub-catagories for "Banter" then.

No, but in our usage, it's mainly going to be car stuff???

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 06:05:30 PM

As long as they're all visible from the main page I agree with Breaking "Banter" down into smaller chunks.

If we've got Music and Movies, maybe we could include "Games" too.

Prime example GTA . . .

And BF2.

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 06:07:09 PM

Also maybe a P.C (/mac

) thread.

To include any help for P.C noobs like me or any useful info, decent hardware/software people have found ?

Jamieg285 · January 10, 2006, 06:08:49 PM

To start with I would combine PC and Games in the same place. If usage is high, then it can be split down again.

I don't see the point in us having a forums that's rarely used.

Another good idea
I'm for all this Lot.

Jamie don't you have more donut icons than we are currently using anyway? I sent you quite a few IIRC

Roadkill · January 10, 2006, 06:16:40 PM

How about a (Kind of) Was it you ?

I Know we all know each other, but I see probably 1-2 Yank motors a fortnight out and about locally.

Would be good to keep a log as kind of research as to who's in our area.

Again. Just ideas . . . . . . . .
