Ta for thoughts Brett, such always appreciated Intial thinking behind it is that the "all about the soul" goes on as it is same sort of scope thats been discussed in there before Adding an all era section aim is to give the opportunity to expand rather than fracture The name and looseness of it all should mean if there's a demand, members can go off on stuff that up to now hasn't had any or that much coverage in the main part of site. In a bit of an anti-category mood at moment but basically idea is with a wide scope that can cover all sorts, all styles, genres, latest releases, current plays, radio and so on, which may not be appreciated by all in the main section. But can be easy dipped into by members if/when want to Hopefully at least above makes where coming from a bit clearer, as said is a trial sort of thing and as in past and now have had interest, thought give it a run out Shouldnt affect main part - (thats main concern) and depending how goes/interest/demand similar for similar can be sorted One factor have to mention is know for a fact that, the tired old "this is sh*te posts" often get when discussing varied styles has and still does put off members posting varied non-mainstream stuff in main bit. as said ta for thoughts Brett mike

Have had a bit of interest in a trial of a more all era soul based forum Idea being offer members place can use site features to discuss a wider and looser range of soul related stuff rather than the main - more rare/northern/rnb/xover soul based "all about the soul" forum All Era Soul - being the intial name - a wide loose range of all era soul being the scope so thought give it a go - see what happens as said trial sort of thing - important points will be does have effect on rest of site, demand and use, and also the running of it

dunno Chris- put me neck out trying to read the listing on scan dug for it - no joy only real trace was ebay listing where it went for 150 maybe more joy/known in garage circles,

Somethings wrong here, first two regular worthwhile contributors having a go at each other over last few days Then another worthwhile regular contributor posting up a jacked off post All because of a thread about a simple sound file??? nah... just do what i just done, look back through recent posts over last few days, and its not hard to see why or how have ended up with current situation not going to go into the ins and outs - just say moderation on here changed see later post end of day forum is all about discussion, in a worthwhile enjoyable manner

ok couple of things first ta for your views Christian on forum, will answer them in a bit second on "discussion " between Christian H and Vaultofsouler this seems to have been going on now over a couple of threads, and resulted in, lengthy posts that have nought to do with the main subject and also other posts from diffferent threads been quoted, gotta say reached point where ask you both if wanna carry this on then do it either by pm/email or whatever, just take it off the forum

After talk about Vondells in other thread /index.php?showtopic=5631 and all that, wondering if anyone heard a lp track by what appears to be the dayton ones, called " a loser" was on a 67 radio station comp lp, released after a battle of bands thing anyone checked it out ??

odd, as shouldn't be able to send pm's like that as means they have to sign in as the person ??? and any replys would go to the person defintely pm's yeah , not emails from site ?? will have a dig mike

think problem resolved its cause of the skins, the "default" one isn't the site default one if you know what i mean means have to change something, so if have choose a different skin than the site default one will have to choose again pain... but the option to save automatically should then be on by default

Scallybob moved the first time around post into the "box" section, as could say its vinyl related, should work and read better, also if thread gets going and some worthwhile info is added, it be easier to find, read , spot by those who missed it when first posted theres a post here bout why posts get moved /index.php?showtopic=5556 ta mike

Just moved a fair few posts to forums where they work better No big thing, always been a loose general sort of thing case of the forum works and reads better if posts are in the right place as it also saves arsing about this end and people getting confused when posts moved just ask try and hit right place first time ta mike edited
