Suggestion for xltronic.com.

After voting in today's poll, i thought it would be cool if
on the new website there would be a section which would
update people on what rare items by Aphex, Boc,
Squarepusher, etc. would be for sale on eBay. I don't know
if this is possible, it would seem like alot of work to
always keep watch on eBay of all the artists that will be
included in xltronic.com, but i just thought i would share
the idea.

I think the messageboard is perfect for something like that!

If you have an account on Ebay, you can have it run a daily
search for new items matching your criteria. That's what I
do for a few rarities that I'm looking for.

I'm not saying it's a bad idea, though.

i have "aphex twin rare" under one of my saved searches, but
i get an e-mail everyday saying what's under that search,
even if there is no new items. Oh well.

I think it'll be a good idea to add a quote button to the
mb...

also when someone puts in a web addy, automatically make it
clickable...

So anything begginning with HTTP:// until the space gets
turned into a link...

I've seen this on other boards and it makes life soooo much
easier...(and I'm lazy bastard)...

an i-want-to-ignore-this-person-button for trolls can be
useful too.

well, here I am revealing features in xltronic:

+ a buy/trade/sell section will be tightly integrated with
the discography. imagine the possibilites. this has nothing
to do with eBay tho. but we are already a nice community
here, ain't we?

- quote-buttons are silly.

+ auto-link feature: most likely.

something bothers me about the aphextwin.nu profiles (but
it's the same in a lot of other sites and other things).

you have to choose between male and female in your profile.

but what if an androgynous or asexual person came here...?
(hermaphrodites really exist — but it's very rare, and
they're operated. but who knows, maybe in the future...)

how about having a 'recommended music' section in the
profiles?

and dedicated threads for the most common topics, e.g.
soulseek, new release info etc

good idea earthleakage :)

(though you can put it on the 'comment' section.)

((btw, who here read other people's profiles? who updates
it? i do it sometimes...))

i'm still surprised that none of you even commented the
buy/trade/sell feature......?

So do I -->I mean reading profiles.

The buy/sell /trade section sounds like a good idea.
I hope I'll find some music there, I can't find in the
shops.

oh, and buttons are silly =o)
