    What should stay and what should go?

    I'm having a forum clearout.

    Which areas do you think should be given the chop, and which should stay as they are?

    Photos - facebook killed it nobody posts them on here anymore.

    FAO - Might as well just have them in banter. It was useful when the board was really busy to stop things getting lost when we used to have about 30-40 new threads a day but now they may as well just be put in any forum that the person who's attention you want posts in most regular (excluding events).

    keep the banter as it is, put news, technology, links, fao's and sport in a new forum ('other' ?)

    keep events, mixes, and podcasts/productions all in one. or shift the podcasts to the mixes. photos can just be posted in the thread of that particular event.

    Keep:

    Gereral Banter
    Mixes
    Events


    Everything else (faqs/news/technology/links/tv/music) all as part of the Banter section...no sub forums though!

    In the Mixes section maybes have the productions/podcasts.

    Or perhaps have the above 3 sections (Banter/Mixes/Events) and a new section with News/Sport??

    I think scrap the news as most people talk about it in banter anyway.
    Photos as facebook has taken over for pics and videos.
    productions be part of music and podcasts be part of mixes but as a sticky for the fortnight until the following podcast is up.

    I'm going to archive everything, so if people want them back, they can have them.

    I might just stick up an "Archive" section at the bottom and throw all the dead forums in there, that would be a way to do it.

    get rid of news, fun stuff/links and photos.

    then stick productions as a sub forum in music, the same for podcasts in mixes.

    bang, sorted.

    News - Never anything in there
    Photos - Dead
    FAO - I think the days of trying to track down someone you'd had a good old gurn with in Promise & not having a mobile phone to do so are long gone :lol:

    agreed on the FAO point. It was there to get people to tell others to empty their PMs, we've not had that problem since the upgrade, as I upped everyone's inboxes to 5000 messages from 200 :)

    There's still some corking threads in there, like Jon Mack's demolition of casy and Rossy/Basic Instinct/eyeball taking the piss out of J :lol:

    I still think there should be a video section :p, when people find a music vid they wanna share or even something funny, would be a place to stick them instead of using banter as thats always busy.

    I agree Fun stuff & news should go :up:
