Re: tell me what you think of splitting \'a&e\' into a separate forum
Diebitter, I know you are annoyed you're film reviews keep getting buried. Unfortunately, I truly believe the arts and similar things belong in OOT, simply because it is other other topics. This is getting to the point where there is no other. It is simply a forum for every subject. Way to complicated. Because seriously, on this track....
.... How long till someone wants a " relationships" forum?

I wouldn't come to OOT if all there was were polls on how I wipe or posts on whether or not some 20 yr. old Gomer should kiss a girl. [/ QUOTE ] Dominic - The forum is so huge it took me a while to find your great film reviews. Eventually I found your very interesting posts on other topics e.g., sex. If OOT was split would you still talk about other topics in OOT? Or would an insiders view of sex come under "Entertainment" [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ~ Rick

Re: tell me what you think of splitting \'a&e\' into a separate forum
splitting a&e is for the people who won't come to oot, not the people that are in it. by this fact, nobody is expecting the idea to be accepted with open arms here.
but it's not the same ballpark as splitting relationships.

[/ QUOTE ] I am anti the concept of a split Astro, OOT has developed a magical sense of community of its own. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Yes OOT can be overwhelming and filled with childish responses, but thats a major part of it's charm. OOT is real, its honest, its boastful and bashful at the same time. Lets not mess with this very magical formula... its perfect the way it is. TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Re: tell me what you think of splitting \'a&e\' into a separate forum
[ QUOTE ]
Okay, I just want to make a point, again. I used to post the most film reviews here (I think 26-28 in January) I got tired of them getting buried, so just cut back: what was the point? Today, I posted one about Kingpin. It had some responses, and then had none for nearly 6 hours. I bumped it, and it got a lot more responses. IT GOT BURIED REALLY QUICKLY. You could point out that I posted it at a god-awful time. But I can tell you from experience, if you post them at a busy time, THEY GET IMMEDIATELY BURIED, UNLESS IT'S A MOVIE LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE SEEN. I hang around OOT a lot, and I'm tired to trying to do entertainment stuff, just to see it washed away. I'm tired of hearing whines about 'I don't come here to read film reviews' or suchlike. Does anyone see my point here? Second point: We're debating about people who don't come into OOT - these are by definition completely unrepresented here. Don't make tons of assumptions. It's best THEY get asked about this too, somehow. [/ QUOTE ] Do you have any better examples, because you'll notice that most of the replies in your Kingpin review noted that this wasn't one of your better reviews... In fact, it was of much lesser quality that most posters are used to from you. This, of course, supports my point that lower-quality content is buried quickly (as it should be). So how about some examples of the good reviews that you've done that have stayed on the front page for a while?

[/ QUOTE ] also, how gay is it that there are people "SCARED" of OOT, an internet forum. is it really so difficult to skip over the threads that seem like they might not interest you? I really don't get the "afraid" thing. I think further diluting OOT is a bad idea. it's already been done a couple times already and now again? where would it stop?
