The DJ Booth isn't really busy enough to warrant splitting it up. Its not as if threads are getting lost/snowed under.

Heh, I think I actually remember reading that... Terrible... I'd actually prefer you just stick to the booth, Nem, so you don't become disillusioned by the rest of TA and stay here, providing the solid answers you have consistently brought to the table!

In any event, I can understand the desire to split the forum, but honestly, it's probably a bad idea in the long run. It will only serve to further stratify the "n00b/l337" dichotomy in this forum, and honestly, even though a lot of the repeated "n00b" questions can be irritating, a lot of them are questions that we've all had before, and deserve no less to be answered by someone who is qualified.

I know it's frustrating to see comparison thread after comparison thread, and so forth and so on, but in the end I think one of the coolest parts about TA is the bringing together of the Bedroom and the Club DJ, sometimes the naivette of the Bedroom DJ can lend itself to neat innovative ideas that the Club DJ may not be able to see, and conversely, the Club DJ can impart limitless knowledge to the Bedroom DJ.

As a DJ who is in limbo between the bedroom and the club (I have a monthly, but it's not as though I'm spreading my wings and playing out at a club week after week), it's the fact that both sides are so well represented in this forum that I find incredibly helpful.

Cheers.

lol i also don't go anywhere else bar the booth, for the same reasons as you stated Nem. (bar the laughing at me lol jk)

If only there were another 100 active members in the booth it could be a bit busier.. i dunno, i'm just waffling.

Right on the money...

Originally posted by stevieboy32808 That's a pretty bad idea. What are you going to do with a separate room full of newbs? If nobody knows anything to begin with, nothing will ever get answered. I think this section is perfect the way it is with dj's of all skill levels. In the way the pros can teach the newbs and once in a blue moon a newb can teach an old dog new tricks.

man thats deep
