getting quieter

cartman · 12-03-2003, 11:10 AM

iv only been here a month or 2 now but i have seen a very big decline inthreads and such,

are the eskimos going somewhere else??

Martini · 12-03-2003, 12:11 PM

maybe its because christmas is coming.

many people leave to go visit family and friends. not that they wont come back though.

I've not been around as much lately because of college, and when i do get on i find myself sifting through loads of bullsh*t posts, which only makes me want to log on less.

Theres a handfull of people in here that use this site as just a chatroom, rather than a fan website forum. But thats just me bringing up a topic that was talked and talked about before, so i'll leave it at there.

Sionna · 12-04-2003, 07:34 AM

Since we had that topic, there have been less stupid posts,havent noticed the place getting that quite.

Wheels · 12-04-2003, 07:41 AM

The 'Damien's next step' thread is an attempt to get some more debate going... join in.

Gatsby · 12-04-2003, 09:55 AM

i agree with the amount of crap posts made these days... i try not to get sucked in[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

People looking to bump up their star ratings methinks - but some of those stupid posts are funny.

Quality not Quantity!

It's starting to look more like the Coldplay board. [img]smileys/smiley6.gif[/img]

that's because the site is growing so fast so soon

Angela · 12-04-2003, 12:28 PM

Yeah, I guess it was inevtable. Soon we'll have to start some sort of oldskool club to find each other [img]smileys/smiley31.gif[/img]

Aisling · 12-07-2003, 07:50 AM

Couple of rules from another message board I post on that might come in handy as this board gets bigger:

16. Veterans of the nancies.org boards must have patience for new users. Everybody was new at one time. New users should be given a break, and guided towards the rules, the FAQ, and the answers to their questions. nancies.org welcomes new users to our boards, and would like to make their stay pleasant.

17. New users must have patience for the veterans. Regulars see the same handful of questions every few days, and they grow tired of them. New users will also grow tired of them, in time. It is recommended that new users begin by reading through the rules and the FAQ. Reading through the current topics in the DMB Music Discussion forum will provide a good idea of how the boards work. Most veterans will help out new users.

i dont mind when people ask questions about damien or what not... thats what we are here for... its just to incoherant ramblings and going off on tangents in good threads that could be used for a proper discussion that annoys me... i think there should be moderators to close/move threads as emmett has enough work to do.

Sionna · 12-08-2003, 08:43 AM

I nominate Jeweller to be a moderator [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

The Kitten · 12-08-2003, 11:50 AM

Has definetly gotten a little quieter, especially the persons who were posting those bulls**t comments. I've also noticed that some people are starting excellent threads but nobody seems to comment on them, or go off in complete tangents.

Maybe everyone (in Ireland anyway) is anticipating the Vicar Street gig and everything will blow up again after it!

Scon · 12-08-2003, 02:58 PM

I'll agree on the extra moderator thing. Someone to help Emmett move posts about into a location more suited would benefit the message boards immensely.
