I agree that the music forums should go and big threads should be enforced in Small Talk. I never think to go to the sub forums when I have music news to post. No one bothers to look or discuss there. But make sure they are actually enforced. Another forum I'm on is OVERRUN with Madonna threads in the Off Topic area and admin refuse to do anything about it.

I'd like to see the Melanie B forum renamed to Mel B since that's what she calls herself anyways.

If Small Talk gets even more flooded with music talk, amongst threads about anything and everything, it's going to become a real pain searching for a particular artist's thread. :'( :p

But then Small Talk will be boring as fuck. It's good to discuss new music here because some of us don't go to other subforums so we wouldn't know (for example) that Cheryl has a new song out if we don't go to the Girls Aloud subforum

The less people who are inflicted by Cheryl, the better.

Oh, sush! You like the song. Plus, her name because was the first that came to mind. My point is valid for any artist that has something new out but maybe people don't know about it if they don't enter said artist subforum

Which is why I think the subforums should go (well, archived actually), with a music forum placed directly below Small Talk. Neat, efficient, perfect. :p

Small Talk wouldn't be boring without music. This is the only forum I go on where the line has been blurred - nowhere else I visit uses their general chat section as the place to discuss Britney and Lady GaGa.

This is how I would do the top part of the forums:

SMALL TALK
MUSIC DISCUSSION
-- Britney subforum
-- Christina subforum
-- Gaga subforum
-- Girls Aloud subforum
-- Madonna subforum
-- Singing Competition subforum
-- etc.
SPICE GIRLS
-- Melanie C subforum
-- Victoria Beckham subforum
-- Geri Halliwell subforum
-- Emma Bunton subforum
-- Mel B subforum
MARKETPLACE
SUPPORT & SUGGESTIONS
-- Mod-Log subforum

And then I'd probably leave the rest of the forum as-is.

I wouldn't give up on the sub-forums just yet. They may see more traffic if they're easier to access. But for the amount of posts the Britney, Christina and Madonna threads have been seeing lately, I think they could probably still sustain their own sub-forums. Of course, with these changes, I think the mods would have to be more vigilant about people posting threads in the wrong forums.

Oh... with such fun topics as:

What ANNOYED you today?
What ruined your day?
What do you don't like on your personality?
Gay problem
Death questions?

And that's only the first page! Russian Roulette (no, not the Rihanna album) sounds more fun!

IT'S A FUCKING CHEER FEST!!

I dont think that it neccessary belongs into the music section but I think each member should have something like a gallery where they can upload their favourite pics or maybe some that they are looking for in HQ or so. That would be a nice touch to the whole forum thing I just dont know with how much work that would come LOL

I think that if we had a super music forum with one huge thread for each artist, that J-lo's ongoing thread would definitely have a home there - but a forum all to herself would be silly.

There should be a "Tell Me What You Think" thread

Lots of people flood Small Talk with "what do you think of this song," or "do you like my new hair-do"

having all the artists "big" topics on a music forum would be pointless. I mean, we already discussed it back then, we have forums for music, movies, technologies, sex... even one for 'news'. So if we all post everything where it should be, the Small Talk forum would be empty.

if anything, I'd change its name to Big Talk, and leave everything as it is now :P

I think the only thing that's needed is to remove all those music subforums that hardly anyone uses.

what the heck i'm not too fussed but having music topics in small talk when they have their own forum seems wrong to me.

It's just someone stanning for JLo, obviously a JLo one would not get used.
