Would it possible to have a news page type thing where trusted users can post news, tidbits & relevant links etc...
Would be good to make things more interactive...& would keep new content coming in all the time...I know the MB kinda achives this but a seperate section on the main page would be neater I reckon & make the Mb a lot more stable...
I know this is pretty easy in ASP but you use PHP yeah?...but I do coding for a living so any help I could offer, I'm here......
Just a few thoughts...love the site so far, it's been good watching it develop over the years....

Actually I have one bit of advice too. Altho its not a big thing, making it so the login and password were not case sensitive would be good. I accidentally have two accounts now because of a mistake in capslock with my prior password and handle (even tho I don't really want or need the second one).

I would prefer to have aphex related news and rumours reported to me or to some other crew members (crew@aphextwin.nu). The crew will have full access to our current news-system soon, which would increase the news flood a bit.

Yeah, having people submit it on their own would be taxing, and ofcourse would overflow the place with bad news, disinformation and such.

well, not if it was only trusted members who'd been here for a while & have a good reputation...and if shit gets posted them surely it would be easy to take away the right to post for that user...
with respect, this "crew" lark stinks just a wee bit of elitism and all the best boards I've ever used were massively successful because of the openess & ability for users to add content themselves (even if it's just the off tidbit of news etc...)...
But yeah, whatever...;)
Just thought it might make the board a little more dynamic and perhaps, take some pressure off yourself & whoever for regular updates....

Thats true, but it cant be so open with all these people coming through I dont think. I frequent another messageboard that is very much so run by the community it envolves, but there are also moderatos/admin's. But its not nearly as large as this community so it works.
Its like comparing the crime density from certain cities if you mind... My city Edmonton has more crime per capita than New York City {which is a lot}. But more people get murdered and such there in NY. Its just the ... well *quality* we could say, for example the "news" or "info" we would get.... so much crap... you half to weed through the stuff, it may work better if somehow it was... well some sort of formed heirchy... but what the hell.. ive been drinking and smoking all night.
