Guest treader. Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 after browsing the band forums the other day, there are maybe 1 or 2 threads in a couple forums while the rest lie stagnant. it seems pointless.especially with myspace/facebook/bebo on the constant rise, bands just dont use these forums any more.I say get rid of them all. Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest treader. Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 then why am i being shown the "no posts in 30 days" notice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 then why am i being shown the "no posts in 30 days" notice?Because there have been no posts in 30 days perhaps? Just because nothing has been posted in 30 days doesn't mean the forums are empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skuzzlebutt Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Err...only the Mohare forum is empty and that's because it is the newest forum.not to mention the fact that some members have been abroad, some are abroad and one is going abroad pretty soon, so things have pretty much quietened since we got the forum opened. we do have some studio time in the pipeline and anticipate the forum becoming more active in due course.aberdeen-music.com has been a very useful asset to us since we started out, and we intend using all facets of it available to us to the advantage of the band. tbh without aberdeen-music.com the band, like so many probably wouldn't exist.make-them-earn-it, we are sorry we have caused you any distress in having an empty forum, and as indicated above, hope to rectify the situation soon and enhance your surfing pleasure. we also thank you for your interest in Mohare(MySpace.com - Mohare - - Rock / Progressive / Indie - www.myspace.com/moharerock) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"surely this applies when no forums are being used?Haha. A 30 day space between posts doesn't mean the bands have disbanded or don't do anything. 30 days isn't a very long time. We haven't had a gig in Aberdeen for just over a month; this doesn't make us 'inactive'. It just means we don't play a gig every week.Patience is a virtue.
