Hello,

As many of you know, myself, Haus, Jay, Jonjo and UV were hired in order to help boost activity within the artist forums and make them as successful as they could possibly be. The " Inner Circle" have had multiple conversations on ways to improve the forum and while all will not come into affect at the moment, we have identified that some AF's are more suited being in their genre and some artists could help boost activity by having their own AF'S.

We have unanimously agreed that Cardi B will receive her own forum . We have agreed that the following artists will no longer have their own AF: Leona Lewis, MKS / Sugababes and Nicki Minaj. We'd like to thank the Mod's for their work on each of these forums. Despite three AF's been removed, we are still reviewing the activity in others with a couple being under review.

We are excited to announce that we will have FOUR new AF's which we are sure can be successful which are the following:

Billie Eilish
Calvin Harris
K-Pop
RuPaul Drag Race

Billie Eilish (Mods - UV & Cqmeron) having a forum is certainty a left field choice / risk but due to her huge online following and huge growth of popularity on and off the forum we believe it will be a success.
Calvin Harris (Mods -DanG & Lewistgreen) We feel Calvin having his own forum provides diversity to the website. Not only is Calvin constantly releasing, we believe it could help target a new audience to the site as a whole
K-Pop Mod - Cody K-Pop is growing in popularity more and more on a daily basis and as a team we feel this forum could take off in a huge way and help bring new members to the website.
RuPaul. Mods: 365, Cucumberella & Liam You guys wanted a RuPaul forum, so you got a RuPaul forum

Please join us in congratulating the new mods and we can't wait to see what you guys have in store for your forums! We still have a lot more exciting things upcoming for AF and will constantly be looking at bringing in new AF'S and replacing the deadwood.

The Inner-Circle Artist Forum Moderators.
(Bal, Jay, Jonjo, Lee & UV)

Calvin Harris?

No one's interested in him as an artist in his own right.

ETA: also, why can't RuPaul's Drag Race be it's own subforum in the tv forum? Or K-Pop be a subforum on the Pop forum? It seems messy to name them "artist" forums...

Because subforums don't work, we've tried them before.

These changes are gonna be pretty exciting! Although why wasn’t Juan Carlos considered for the Calvin mood team when he’s THE resident Calvin stan?

Beyoncé, Rihanna, Girls Aloud, The Saturday’s, One Direction. All significantly outperformed in 2019 by MKS. All of which have connections to the Inner Circle.

This is bullshit.


And don’t even get me started on ¾ of the replacements.

I actually wanted rid of four out of five of those forums.

In the long run though, each of those forums don’t have constant survivors etc and thinking long term into the future 4/5 of those forums will have long term benefits with music coming soon while MKS have been promising music that hasn’t delivered. We want to push Buzzjack as a forum and for future new members a forum for Rihanna / Beyoncé is far more relevant than MKS and a much wider appeal!

Congrats everyone!

Calvin’s topics in dance seem to get a lot of replies so hopefully this forum works out well too, make sure to add him to your artist selection. wink.gif

The Saturdays and Beyonce definitely need to be next.

Only Calvin interests me out of the new forums but exciting to see different approaches being taken!

We had a lot of debates and another AF was basically going to go too but we couldn’t get a majority. Not even my ego counted as a vote.

In the long run these current decisions are for what’s best for AF’s and I’m sure they could all be successful.

Shame to see another of the originals go but this is definitely the right way to go as a site, looking forward to posting in the Calvin forum!

MKS going despite outperforming quite a few current AFs is a bit weird.

I can’t say I’m interested in ANY of the new forums but I’m sure the mods will do their best to ensure success.

Going forward, MKS doesn’t have anything to offer? They’ve not had any music releases and I doubt that they will, all their posts are based upon survivors and polls. I wanted rid of The Saturdays before anybody calls me biased but at least they have some music releases and if they done polls etc they would be much higher. I think the MKS mods have done a great job but looking forward to the future, they would be more suited to the pop forum. I have no doubt unless posts / activity / benefit of the forum to buzzjack picks up a couple of af’s will be joining them soon.

Looking forward to working with Ultra to ensure that Billie is a success! cheer.gif

Will definitely be posting in Calvin, great addition! Won’t be posting in Drag Race, but that definitely needed its own forum.

I hope K-Pop does well too, there’s a lot of potential there re. new members.
