melbourne events thread

Should there be an events thread for melbourne?
seeing as there are numerous threads atm on events held in melbourne, should these all be placed in one mega thread?

Same would apply for other states of course, ive had numerous non-melbourne people tell me they stop using the boards because there is just melbourne promo shit spread all over it like a disease.

All comments ideas appreciated

Yes, agreed that an events thread would be good for each state.

there are definitely too many event threads on this here trance website. but an events thread would be gay. too hard to keep track of which event is when if you need to remember X event is on page 32 etc.

plus, we cant have benji crying.

Why not ask Swamper for a subforum for events? It can work like the Canada forums.

i personally dont think theres enough events to make a whole new subforum
plus swamps is mega busy

well maybe you can do that, but the original poster has a time limit on when they can edit their posts

anomyst will cry is a trick poll option because he'll cry either way, IMO.


Posted by Anomyst on Apr-16-2007 06:13:

Oi!

I think a subforum would be a good idea, but if there is just one thread for all events then you can suck on my balls.

cause that would leave all the uber-jaded i hate the scene and everyone in it threads.

People dont come to these forums because its a kindergarten of abuse, not because its loaded with event threads.

it might be easier for pkc to take care of the TAS thread, seeing as he is the entire TA population of TAS (oh wait, there's kitty too right?)

not sure how the TOTA's do it (maybe swampah gave them the ability) but the non-mods seem to be able to continually edit the original download thread posts all the time (no expiry).

a subforum is prefarable especially for reviews and roll call threads, unless your intention is to allow those as separate threads to the event threads (otherwise each state event thread will get messy real quick and hard to read).


Posted by pkcRAISTLIN on Apr-16-2007 06:27:

i think there are too many rules. at least lots of event threads give us something to read if we're that bored (and i often am).

um, theres me, kitty & bec as regular tassies TAs. and there certainly aint a reason to have one just for us haha.


Posted by Fledz on Apr-16-2007 06:44:

I think one subforum for all states will do for now. It can always be expanded later if need be.

my only concern with this is the fact that toronto have 3572437524789275 more events then we do... also as i said swamper is a busy man and we might not get a subforum


Posted by Fledz on Apr-16-2007 06:54:

That's true, but it's better to have one if we need one, than clutter the forums.

I'm sure Swamper can find an hour somewhere All he would need to do is reuse the code from the Canada forums and modify it.


Posted by eROs.au on Apr-16-2007 06:57:

a events thread would suck, but as for a sub forum im down for that


Posted by Philby on Apr-16-2007 07:51:

i think its fine as it is. this is local scene discussion. you cant have a local scene without local events. who is complaining about melbourne promoo shit? there is promo shit from other states, maybe there is more from melbourne because there are more events? or more people wanting to promote events in melbourne? you dont have to read them. a sub forum would just make it more boring and complicated. maybe individual events such as pharmacy or interview could have a single thread, but i dont think one thread for all events in a single state would work, it would just be too complex, nobody would talk about the events.


Posted by Fpcookie on Apr-16-2007 07:59:

worst idea ever


Posted by MiSSyM on Apr-16-2007 08:11:

I concur with Cookie

hahaha sad rules too

Philby well said

HAHA TOO MANY MELB EVENTS = MELBOURNE ROCKS = MELBOURNE NIGHTLIFE ROCKS MORE THAN OTHER STATES.


Posted by eRRaTiK on Apr-16-2007 08:16:

I think a sub-forum is the best solution if people are honestly not coming to the board because it's too melbourne central. Out of curiosity Jolz, how many people have complained? Are we talking about a couple of people here or a good number in relation to the regular users?

I think Philby has put it the best - it's a local scene sub-forum with local scene content. Melbourne is one of the most active cities in Australia for the electronic music scene, so of course it's going to have a lot, if not the majority of events content.

Wont point the finger at anyone, but over the time ive been back in oz and asked why they havent posted much id say 6-8 people..... also you have to have noticed the gradual decline of non-melbourne people....
even lots of sydney people have fallen off.... not sure if their interest in trance has died, if its the wanks that use this site or infact all the melbourne promo shit that goes on.


Posted by Dean Millson on Apr-16-2007 11:20:

Didn't want you to point the finger at anyone, just interested in the number.

I'm sorry though, if it's 6-8 people then this is a pretty redunant thread imo.
