Posts: 1944 10/22/02 16:11:48 Maxwell Demon	Tags : None I've added a few fun features to the board. One is the community profile. You can find the newest members, stats on posts, and hot topics (those with lots of posts). I've also added the EzBoard chat feature. I know people have asked about a chat room before. I figure we could test out the new chat feature that EzBoard has added. Now... the chat room will be unmoderated. And I hope it does not encourage lots of posts asking if people will join them for chats. I'm going to start a topic in general discussion just for the chat room -- where maybe folks can organize times to all meet up in the chat room. But otherwise, all other topics on the chat room will be close to keep things tidy. How does that sound? Let me know if you think the chat room is a good idea or not. I also wanted to ask if folks read through past threads on the board or not? I was thinking I could clean out a few forums and prune threads that have not be posted in for some time now (say 6 months ago). Any thoughts? I appreciate any feedback you can give... -Alyse "I will have to tell Ewan he needs to be spotted more!" - Baz Luhrmann pop-trash.com -- jrmfansite.org -- ewanspotting.com -- brilliance.nu

I don't mind the cleaning and pruning. If it's possible, maybe you could go through all the various threads for Jonny's movies, and cut and paste them together to make one official thread--like on the ewan board. It's so much easier to find what you're looking for. As if you haven't got more important things to do.

Posts: 2768 10/23/02 14:18:53 Mistress of the Ritual	Alyse, I like the chat feature, even though it crashes Netscape every time so far, and I can't even find a place to click on when I go to MIE. (doesn't appear on the same page...I'm using a Mac...don't know if that has anything to do with it.) Anyhoo, I'm thrilled. I'm all for pruning and cleaning out the musings that went nowhere, and especially stuff like media sightings for tv showings of VG or RWTD that have come and gone. Estella, I'd asked Alyse a while ago if there was a way to cut and past together posts to unite them (shuffling by date) under one or two topics, because of the way people would just think of a BILB factoid and then post it under a new topic, fragmenting the information and generally making it harder to find stuff later. But apparently it's not technologically possible to cut and past together posts and add them in order to an existing topic. Daphne

Posts: 319 10/23/02 14:56:55	I too am in favor of cleaning and pruning of the posts that went no where or now have become outdated. (Like a Jonny movie was on TV sometime last year) I actually have gone back and read some of the old threads. I hadn't had Internet access for almost 2 years at one point, and actually went back and tried to read everything that had been posted since I hadn't been on the board!!!!!! Yes, I am truly one of the Jonny obsessed. I had been deprived for all that time. I wanted to try to read everything I had missed. I am still trying to catch up on some of the old posts! There are some people out there that do read the old threads. I am not a chat room person, myself, but a lot of people do like them and all in all I think it is a good idea for those who want to participate. REDDVELVET

Posts: 1944 03/11/03 13:55:28 Maxwell Demon	Hey everyone! I am going to be doing some major reworking and cleaning up of the board. Since BILB being released tomorrow and eventually all around the country, we may get a lot of new members to the board. I've noticed a lot of threads about non-Jonny movies in Film Discussion and the Fun Fun Fun and General Discussion forum need some work too... What I'm going to do is make the set-up a lot similiar to the Ewanspotting board. The General Discussion forum will be turned into and renamed the Off-Topic forum. I will move threads from Film Discussion and Fun Fun Fun to that forum. I will also move Jonny related threads that are recent to Film Discussion which will be renamed Jonathan Discussion. I will rename some topics to make them official threads for things and try to avoid duplicate threads being started and to help tidy things up a tad. Then I will be closing the Fun Fun Fun forum. I hope this makes sense and you understand the need for the change. I really wanted to both clean up the board and make it more organized especially when we might start getting a lot of new members to the board. Let me know your thoughts about all this... I'm going to start working on moving threads back and forth between General and Film Discussion right now.

Posts: 607 03/11/03 14:39:13	Hey Alyse Thanx for the organizing time spent! Sounds like a good plan to me! One question tho- can I not post in the fun fun fun forum until it's been changed? Coz when I just tried to post there it said that only moderators & administrators could post in the forum. Just wondering!

Posts: 1944 03/11/03 16:59:17 Maxwell Demon	Emma - Thanks! Yeah, I turned off posting for now so I can move threads over to Off Topic.... and then I'll be closing that forum. Figured it would be easier that way. -Alyse "I will have to tell Ewan he needs to be spotted more!" - Baz Luhrmann pop-trash.com -- jrmfansite.org -- ewanspotting.com -- brilliance.nu "I'd rather have 10 minutes of an extraordinary life than 100 years of a happy, boring one." - Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Posts: 5683 05/02/03 05:59:07 Moderator	Just curious Alyse, have you now made this board so only registered people can post? Or has it been like that for some time and I'm just unobservent? Sorry, just didn't want to clutter with a new thread. Can we still lurk while logged out? KATE Moulin Goldmine ~ Rouge Velvet Live Journal Spectacular MB Fanlisting ~ Spectacular! Spectacular!

Posts: 1944 05/09/03 10:54:05 Maxwell Demon	Hi, I have added an extensive FAQ to Jonathan Discussion to help with so many new members to the board. Also... yes I made it so only registered users of ezboard can view and post on the board. I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to handle this entirely... but the stats for the board are increasing a lot lately due to BILB and the only way to decrease that is to limit who can view the board. -Alyse "I will have to tell Ewan he needs to be spotted more!" - Baz Luhrmann pop-trash.com -- jrmfansite.org -- ewanspotting.com -- brilliance.nu "I'd rather have 10 minutes of an extraordinary life than 100 years of a happy, boring one." - Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Posts: 5683 05/09/03 20:14:41 Moderator	K, thanks for answering that And great job on the FAQ. I just spent some time reading through the entire thing, very extensive, but I think it should prove very useful for new members. I also like the way it has the [top] feature.

Posts: 1944 08/15/03 16:33:54 Maxwell Demon	Update to the board for Aug. 15, 2003: We have a new moderator! I've asked BarbSlade if she was interested in being a mod and helping me keep things tidy around here and she accepted. I couldn't be happier cause this only helps me out in maintaining the board...

Posts: 1944 03/26/04 15:26:05 Maxwell Demon	I've added topic views to all forums but its a bit buggy and will show 0 views for a lot of topics even though there are way more than 0 views.

Posts: 1944 03/29/04 14:39:22 Maxwell Demon	Another little announcement... Kate, aka RHPS Magenta, will now be helping me moderate this board. She will be a mod for Jonny Discussion, Media Sightings, Trading, Polls and Help/Suggestions. I'll update the board FAQ so that everyone can know who is a mod and for which forums. While Barb is without a computer, both Kate and Kelley are going to help out around these parts and will continue to help with the board for as long as they want. -Alyse "I will have to tell Ewan he needs to be spotted more!" - Baz Luhrmann pop-trash.com -- jrmfansite.org -- ewanspotting.com -- brilliance.nu "I'd rather have 10 minutes of an extraordinary life than 100 years of a happy, boring one." - Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Posts: 1865 04/08/09 11:25:56 Maxwell Demon	Just posting a notice that I'll be cleaning up the member list. There's currently 954 members but of course not all post or even visit. Since the board used to be private, a lot of people may have signed up to view the board once and then never came back. For instance, there are 300+ members who have never posted or visited the board since we moved over to Yuku. They are hold overs from the ezboard days. If they do happen to come back and log in, they will automatically be added back to the members list. Just wanting to do some spring cleaning on the board in general... and realizing the high member count is not too accurate. Also... slightly new look. Will continue to fiddle with it.
