Decision about the forum

[jimmy brayks]

Yo dawgs

We're close to relaunching NSB Radio, new design, looks cool, more things in the works. Can't decide what to do with the forum.... what do you think??

Vote..... reply....

[Doomo]

ban, bum, burn

no ruqs option?

[~Lander~]

Good point. Where IS the rugs options??

[LTJ_Nukem]

you wanna put a banging donk on it imo

[jimmy brayks]

reason for new name is coz people don't understand nuskoolbreaks name, NSB more generic, just a thing rather than a nu skool berks thing

[Lightshapers]

shouldnt the forum be part of the radio site?

what one gets the most traffic? nsbradio.co.uk or this site ?

have you considered changing the name to noskoolfutureretrowitchbassmusicstep.net?

[_OhGee]

This may be quite brutal but it's hard to know what the forum itself is now. No-one talks about music any more and people who do post events / mixes are lucky to get a response.

There's obviously a following for the radio but sometimes it seems never the twain shall meet between here and there. I personally say move it over to the radio and focus on that.

2 cents of course

[jimmy brayks]

yeah the radio is doing really well, and with boiler room and shit like that, its having a bit of resurgence, new design should just help that

[TT_]

change is good

anything that can be described as a resurgence has to be good

[LTJ_Nukem]

Breaks are back, haven't you heard Tam?

Being on the NSBRadbro site wouldn't be a bad thing.

Actually, I've just noticed NSBRadio.co.uk is blocked by on my work internet

Still probably not a bad ting

[alex_virr]

roll out new design of radio component into forum so they align.

relaunch both at same time.

Hello. I'd be sad to see the forum close, but it's fair to say it's not very well used these days and I still have conversations with people who are surprised it is still going. So I would plump for a redesign. Name change prob good too. nsb.com sounds fine.

I do think there is still a use for forums - element of anonymity, connection with people without having to see pics of their children, ability to chat about things without your mum reading it etc...

Having said that, needs to be designed with social media in mind - easy to share posts, like comments, log in with social media accounts etc... Also think perhaps some sort of individual profile page people can build up might be good.

We also need more people to post. And less sections (atm imo).

I assumed "use other things" was the drugs option.

Also, if the conversation hasn't moved past this point in over 12 years then i vote burn the place to the ground.

re-launch night at Fabric

[VJ Air]

I think that a stronger link to the radio site is probably for the best - its been relatively busy as of late. If we can pull a few more of them in it could give some extra life the place is needing.

Obviously ketcokemandyphetdmt is the proper answer though.

What Arran said.

[VJ Air]

Id have added the shiz i did i chile the other day which deffo worked, but im not sure what it was called

[nic_]

ban the forum and make it a sub of the radio IMO

[OAP-Dub]

I've not really been here much since 2008, only drop in now as back on radio, but would seem to make sense to combine the 2 I'd have thought?
