Fun Stuff > CHATTER

I pretty much only read 3 threads on this forum

<< < (18/31) > >>

I also just unstuck the photo thread and will probably lock it a bit later so we can have a break from it.  This is basically an experiment in temporarily shutting down some of the bucket threads to see what new things crop up.  Both the photo and blog thread will probably come back at some later stage.

edit: do you mean a separate forum for personal blogs like Dan has over at Aurostion, or a wholly separate set of forums?  I do kind of like the blog forum Dan has, but I am not sure it is a good idea for here because it'd basically mean giving every member of the forum access to an open mic.

Still going through the first threads in this forum, can you imagine the reception to this thread in today's climate?

@jens: do not worry, nobody thinks you are a dick. Ideally just we all collectively stop judging new threads harshly. On three...

Guys lets just try no blog thread and see if its better. For all we know, it could be!

Also mind if i bring up the mediafire thing again? I am kind of concerned with that
The mediafire thread feel like a giant garbage dump. In there is something that somebody will find cool every once in a while but the rest of the stuff is just trash. And it sucks and is horrible wading through it. Kiff's suggestion is a pretty good one, if we are to continue it. However I just think it needs to be put down. As Darryl has been saying, it makes us fat and lazy. Finding new music from it nowadays is so boring. We can start making finding music more exciting again by not uploading it and making the kids use google blog search or some other tool to find it. At least then your digging a little bit, instead of just picking it up off the ground. And the megaposts are just horrendous. They never have any sort of description ever and it is just boring. As it is right now, I really dislike the mediafire thread. Perhaps another incarnation of it in the future could be better, but now it is just kind of shit.
(beause i am concerned with these kinds of things)

Also kids stop posting so fast.

I don't really like the monolithic dump thread the mediaf!re thread has become.  I am currently thinking about the "new releases plus genre-based threads" idea in the music section, but I am not sure it's right for here.  What are other people's thoughts?

sean:
That would be a huge improvement on whats there, but like the blog thread a temporary break at least would probably be pretty healthy.

@Jho: That thread is oddly liberating. We should try doing that.
