Just a quick show of hands, how many of you would like to see a forum on Vinyl Warning?
Please feel free to post your thoughts, good vs bad. Forums are quite costly to maintain but we would consider adding one if you think it would add value to your shopping experience.
sweetnuts idea reemo. would you consider having a buying/selling forum on it to cater for 2nd hand records or would that compromise your business trade?

Yeah we can have many different sections and Buying & Selling is a definate candidate.
So far I was thinking these sections:
Help & Order Problems
New Release Discussion
Buy & Sell
Do you think we should have a section for each genre? Im a little unsure on this as it may make the forum look quite (we have like 9 genres now).
imo i reckon it would make for a much more harmonious (scuse the pun) forum, if there was genre segmentation. i mean, i look at the itm board and i see a lot of intimidation by the tech/house folks and people just dont feel comfortable posting. but thats just me of course.

A forum is a good idea, but I reckon a text-only version of the newsletter (like Juno) would be a better idea

I dont think a forum would add much to the site tbh.
and if possible, i would like you guys to start updating on wednesdays like you used to.

i think updates on Wednesdays are a very good idea, as most people get paid on Wednesdays or midweek at least..
that would increase sales i think
also
a forum is a good idea. but only for a few categories.. obviously split into the different genres that you offer too...

i rkn a forum on vw would b a pretty mad idea...
would it be linked with like what u buy n stuff? like u just create a nickname no ur already done profile n use it for teh forum?
or would u have to register again for the forum?
and a section for each genre would b good i rkn
Ideally we would set it up so the forum would be accessed using your existing account details although im not sure what this requires. We could also do some fancy things like automatically creating a thread for each release like on www.di.fm how it has "Read & post comments (134)". This would do away with the existing review system in favour of a forum based system containing a poll in each thread so you can rate the tunes.
