Changes On Site - Sound Posts, Mp3s Etc

[Mike]

Few changes on way handling various things throughout the forum side

As said a few times in past, over time things do change as in evolve on here, be it the way members use the site, the features available, resources used and so on.

With these changes do look at things and if needed reflect them in the way the forums are organised and run. There's been a few changes on the sounds side recently and due to these are bringing in the following

1. Start of a trial where the media source forum will be the place for all sound related threads, talking about threads like the long running ones the recent jazz one, the sunday modern one and future similar ones

In past box has been a sort of start point, feel may work better now if use media for focus for all sounds/media

2. media source forum will also be the place for all sound clip/mp3 wants, a clip/mp3 wants thread will be started and members asked to use it for simple "want a sound" shout - got to remind all that for obvious reasons, its always been a case that the odd shout for a clip is ok, building up ipod collections isnt.

Hopefully this get away from sound wants being posted in various forums

3. mp3 attachments - with the return of refosoul going back to the posting mp3s as attachments not welcome policy

Reasons why been said before - copyright issues, drain on resources, dupliction of features etc

This will cover all all forums apart from sales ( as some sellers do post up clips of the actual 45s on sale)

As said idea is to keep things moving, enjoyable and worthwhile and reflect changes in way site gets used and features available.

If any q's or any feedback, please post in the members feedback - a copy of this post will be there
