December 1, 200420 yr Janine said: ahh one of these Are you going to tell us what it is then Smiffy? link What, that picture? It's a f*cking tumbleweed, what's it look like? It represents a total lack of response from anyone to Mike's excellent suggestion... do you like my new avatar by the way?
December 1, 200420 yr Kolla said: Just thought i'd bring Mike's original post back to the top again. link Kolla, I do admire your trying. What can you do eh? Any ways, I have something I am sure that on the homepage at the end of each topic title, there were the number of pages listed. Therefore from the homepage if say there were 5 pages to a thread you could just hit the 5 and go straight to the last page. Now you got to go into the first page, then the last page. Obviuosly a minor thing, but it used to be like that (?) and it is just a hassle and time thing. And time is money...

Solicitors employ similar sentence structures when drawing up contracts (funny eh). In any case, I think it's very generous of him to allow you to punctuate his sentences where ever you see fit.

December 2, 200420 yr Mike, Serious now, how about a Soulsource 2004 National Northern Soul Adwards kind of deal, best venue, best weekender, best DJ, best live act, best radio show...lol, most popular magazine, maybe this would be a good way for all members to express their feelings and thoughts on the current scene......... just a thought, then maybe a National Northern Soul AGM or big event where all promoters, DJ's and Soul fans could get together air their views and present the adwards again just an idea.... Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I really didn't see it coming link on the "front page " thing instead of hitting the subject, if you hit the "latest" link it "should" take you automatically to the "last post" you read in that thread (if logged in) so saving the need for the "pages" links note the "should" bit alison said: I have grown accustomed to Mikes typing patterns, its almost like a language in itself. Speed writing ;-) link mmm.. since reading the comments on my communication skills, I am currently counting as I type, throwing in "I"s everywhere, and planning a quiet weekend. There is a theory that this forum follows a day of the week related pattern, sunday, monday being the long post days, tue, wed being the grumpy days,....

Regards - Mark Bicknell. link the "awards" thing sounds interesting, as you say Mark be a good way of members expressing their views, plus sure the results would be interesting. Not too sure how a agm would work though, need a fair few pairs of boxing gloves Keep any suggestions, thoughts coming in ......
December 2, 200420 yr yay mike, second mark's suggestion i remember proposing this b4 (awards thing)just after death of Mr Godin, could include a "hall of fame/services to NS" prob b to complicated to set up but we can dream... if not just have a vote on here, nominate a shortlist for chosen categories and (someone design a form) Danny D
December 2, 200420 yr So lets do it then like a National Northern Soul poll, need to set it all up Mike but it would be interesting, don't think we would need boxing gloves at a possible AGM as a good old street fight would be oh so much fun...lol Could set the various sections up and give people three votes or nominations each i hope you can put something together. Regards - Mark Bicknell

Regards - Mark Bicknell =============== Personally I could really see the balloon going up if this took off. Capulets and Montagues......was this what Billy S foresaw when he wrote R&J A couple of serious questions though..... Would the major players want to take part? Should we put them on pedestals anyway? The mainstay of the northern scene IMO are the crowds.....without them you don't have a scene......they're the ones that deserve the awards for keeping it alive! Winnie :-)

Thought as soul source is getting to the long overdue 100% state may be worthwhile puting up a shout for any
views, suggestions, points, discussion , questions on anything really about soul source
Two reasons,
Main one being members make site what it is, so think fair to say members views worthwhile
If need be can give site opportunity to explain why something is done in such a way or the reasons behind it, and hopefully avoid any misunderstanding
