[QUOTE=thickasabrick]I know you guys don't want any more stickies....but a couple months ago I made a thread that people can use to get help figuring out a song they heard, whether they need to know the name of the song, or the band/artist etc etc.

We've had about five threads made per day in the last little while asking for song names or artists and it's getting out of hand. I'm just wondering if it would be worth it to sticky that thread, it might cut down on spammy threads.

/just a suggestion to help out.[/QUOTE]
Ken made an official one at some point which was stickied, but it didn't really work out so he de-stickied it.

Oh ok.

Well now that the search feature is working, we could probably direct everyone to that thread...instead of having a whole bunch of them floating around.

munky_magik 03-05-2005 02:46 PM

I remember the problem with it being that alot of the requests were ignored because not everyone went into it.
People would still make the threads anyway, before being directed to the official one so it doesn't really solve anything.

I suppose you're right. There isn't much we can do to stop spam threads before they happen...no one reads the rules.

^^ this thread has been around for a while, I don't know if it's violating any rules...but it's basically just a "Metallica selling out" type of thread, which I notice is overdone and usually ends up in big arguments.

As you can see....I start getting anal about everything when R&M is moving slowly.

Eh'...it's just going to be a bunch of fanboys coming in to say "a7x r0xx0rs mah s0xx0rs d00dz!" if it stays any longer.

Permanent Solution 03-05-2005 05:18 PM

But that's what it was the first time...if it was kept once, might as well keep it up again. Alternatively, he could have made a new thread. I think it's nice he used the search function :p

Hey, I corrected people who were saying A7X isn't metalcore because they're too good.

munky_magik 03-05-2005 06:15 PM

[url]http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=310833[/url] - I'm pretty sure it has been made the subject of a few threads recently, I'm not sure though.
See what his search turns up and then you can take it from there.

Bartender 03-05-2005 06:19 PM

I can't find anything in a search, so I'll leave it open. There have been a few threads on it recently, though.

So...I was thinking...it might be cool for community building to have a R&Mer of the month like many other forums have...does anyone agree? I'd be willing to run it. I was thinking of following punk's example and doing a n00b of the month and a user of the month (exclusive so there were two winners) to reward them for good posting and the like. Just wondering if there's an interest, I can handle logistics.

Hey everyone my name is Mike. I made a new forum for classic rock from the 60's 70's and 80's only. There are not that many members, but after a little bit, I am sure it will get going good. Please join and start some threads. Thank you!

Self-pwn. This guy's been advertising everywhere.

Ozzy, if you read this, advertising is [I]against the rules[/I] of the forum.

Permanent Solution 03-05-2005 11:39 PM

^No advertising, read the rules...which ironically this is the place you go to report rule breakers. Thanks for self reporting.

He fuc[b][i][/b][/i]king spammed the FG with it. I'll tear him a new one. The FGs will be beautiful. They will all be beautiful and no advertising spam will ruin them.

Sounds sweet enough. Me first?

Anyways, my problem is that I still have stars. wtf?

/ponders the fact that he is complaining about something only he has.

Ah, for clarification, the way it works is it's a vote by all the people in the forum, and we vote for the best users of the month as a forum :)

Somebody will delete the posts if you ask.
Ken already went through MR's FG and cleaned it up because it was being spoiled by a moron.

[url=http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=6932689&postcount=95]this[/url] is the advertising post in the FG thread, and [url=http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=6935355&postcount=96]Here[/url] and [url=http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=6935493&postcount=97]here[/url] are the posts relating to it.
If someone could take the time to clean the thread up it would be appreciated by everyone, especially Dancin' Man :)

If you could prune the FA as well it would be great.
