Now That MXTabs Once Again Has Its Own Boards..

And these are now entirely linked to the review site, can we just scrap the instrument forums? They're constantly targets of abuse (especially D&P lolol) and if these boards are no longer related to the tab site then tbh we have no reason to keep the instrument forums.

Basically we should just scrap the whole instruments/vocals category.

Just an idea.

This would be a sure way to decrease forum activity even more.

I'm going to have to agree with Sweboy on this one. We really don't need this at this point in Sputnik history.

musicianforums doesn't work for me anymore either.

I don't know about anyone else, but the only reason I come to this website is for the guitar forum. I go there just about every day and I like it. I wouldn't be very happy if that was taken away.

the guitar forum is the elephant graveyard of mx

members who were once funny or members who joined for the guitar forum and never made it out rot there in their pathetic jokes and sub-par trolling until they die and are never heard from again

it's also where they assign moderators that can't be trusted with power anywhere else on the site

haha sometimes, but I get enough good advice and info there to keep coming back.

I am, however, in no position to argue that the guitar forum ever fails to meet it's quota of 15 lame jokes per day. Sometimes I help fill the quota myself.

It's not exactly hurting anything to have those forums, but it certainly would if they were eliminated. What's the point of scrapping forums that people still use?
