Cliquey

[Charlie]

I think we're too cliquey. I think people find it hard to join in witht he message board. Noony did Ok - but I think other's are struggling. Maybe we post too much. But seriously, we're scaring people away. We have all these in jokes and posts and things. I might have to steal Tom's idea and put a guest forum.. Is that OK Tom?  

[Lauren]

We are a bit cliquey, I guess.

Guest Forum is a good idea, people can gradually move in, lol. I think Word Association is good as well... anyone can play:-)

I think I will try and introduce new people to the board.

[Charlie]

Oooh yay!

[noony]

there are bigger, huge famous band's boards that don't get as many posts and topics as you guys do, and most of them don't have all the band members posting on them either..

maybe people just don't have as much free time as we all do

[Charlie]

I think the reason why big band memebers don't post is cos they're actually busy with their band! I've said it before and I'll say it again. We're slackers.  

But yes. That's true! Let us post lots and lots.

[noony]

yeah, some bands are better than others, mark hoppus used to come online a lot before blink went massive, seafood are pretty good too [even tho they are one less in number as of yesterday ] there are others too, they escape my mind at the moment..

My Vitriol are crap! Som said in an interview that the message board was full of shit. GRARG

[Lauren]

That's true. We do all post a *lot*.

I've been on boards with 1000+ members, and had nowhere near as much activity.

[Nicôle]

We set the standard for message boards everywhere.

MV should post. They could be forgiven for saying it was full of crap though, when just taking a glance at it. I'm not so sure about slagging off a huge online fanbase though!

[Lauren]

I couldn't think of an appropriate thread to put this in, so...

I really like the new website design:-)

And a guest forum.... Cool 8)

Post in it, guest!
