Like Ophecks said, it has always been a busy board. Even busier with the introduction of V5, due to the fact it's way more easier to reply and that is how it should be. 'Ease of use' and 'minimalistic' are us. |

The point system is basically the same thing as a message counter, which almost all other messageboards have. If people are posting just to get points then I should kick their asses. |

Just a thought, but if you put up a chat room, then I imagine some of these lame/repeated topics won't come up. As someone said earlier, people seem to use this place as a chat room. And having chatted with some of the good folks here at iSketch (bar one (I won't get into that here!)) it sounds like a good idea. Of course I have no idea on what this intails, so maybe it's not an option at the moment. |

but not one of them crrap chatrrooms that i can't seem to use. |

i don't think a lot of the off topic comments aren't as "useless" as thei don't think a lot of the off topic comments aren't as "useless" as the older members make them out to be. I mean, this is an online community. a lot of the people here seem to interact with each other like friends do in real life. How well do you think you could get to know someone if you were forced to only talk about one thing all the time? don’t you think an online message board/community is more valuable to it’s members if there are some sort of relationships that are formed on them? How did you guys with 1000+ points get to know one another? Surely it wasn’t from 1000 ae and aphex threads alone. I think if this place were to crack down hard on the off topic threads it’d dry up quickly as it got more and more boring. People wouldn’t be able to form friendships as easily, and would leave. The place wouldn’t be nearly as dynamic. older members make them out to be. I mean, this is an online community. |

why are you beating a dead horse, these are old topics... the quality of topics has been a lot better in recent days. i for one am NOT complaining. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agrree i think we all do but people make a thrread "what arre you doing tonight?" then someone else "tonight! what arre you doing" and "i'm doing this tonight, you?" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I have never complained abou crap topics... but I have tried to be better with my own topics... and it has been better overall the last while I think... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess i just don't notice quality fluxuating as much as other people do. i mean sometimes not much on here intrests me, but, if I was totally inthralled with every post on this board 24/7 i'd be pretty fux0red. :shrug: carry on |

yes flood control is built-in. It is only a few seconds, against DoS attacks, but not meant to control the members chatty behaviour. I am not sure if that's a good tool anyway. I don't like to regulate people. One solution would be to create a real IRC-like chat tool, for members. (Phob came up with the idea several times, don't know what form to use for that anyway) Other is to organize topics into more discussion groups, but that's against the "keep it simple" philosophy. One thing that will be introduced when the new design is coming is showing the last poster. So people will click less on topics, reloading only the index, which may lift some weight from the server. |

please sort out the search engine, very rarely does it work for me |

I see 2 problems with getting people to search for topics similar to ones they're contemplating starting. Firstly, people are too fucking lazy. Never underestimate the laziness of the average mouse-potato. Still, there's no excuse for starting a topic that's already there on the front page. Take a baseball bat to those people. Secondly, it's the top of a slippery slope leading towards the suicidegirls.com board where people get flamed to oblivion if they try starting a topic on a subject thats been mentioned before, even if it was 50,000 years ago or something. |

i'm kinda a newbie here i guess (or at least i was when i joined...) and i did get a little stick for posting a draft 7.30 topic, along the lines if 'yeah yeah we know its good heard it all before' or some shit like that, but this board moves so fast, topics drop off the bottom of the page like flies, i just cant keep up, and yes im probably to lazy to use the search and bring an old topic back to the top (sorry). I must admit there are some pointless topics too, (eg - im eating fried rice, what are you eating) but i think the mix of music reletad topics and complete obscureness is very much a part of the appeal of this board. as for replies that are only a few words long, i can be guilty of that quite a bit. i like to chip in with my two penneth but dont like repeating whats already been written like some kind of parrot. i'd prefer to add a couple of sentences than repeat a couple of paragraphs. |

I think some people may fear that their topic or comment will be ignored because others will see it and go "I've already read that one, I'm bored with it" and just move on. |
