September 29, 201014 yr Not entirely. Delta's forum has never been so active. Even the old fans are back joining in the discussion with us Silk's. Delta's fanbase = small but very loyal :wub:
September 29, 201014 yr Author PMs have now been sent to all of the AF mods whose forum is being closed in 4 weeks. If you didn't get no PM, then you're safe!
September 29, 201014 yr This will happen this time - we did it the first time, and granted we didn't the second time. But, the axe will fall now :o
September 30, 201014 yr Why's Delta being closed when Shania isn't? :unsure: Isn't that one being skewed just a little by having so many pinned threads disguising its inactivity?
September 30, 201014 yr Seems fair enough. AFs can just be reinstated if the artist becomes active again.
September 30, 201014 yr Why's Delta being closed when Shania isn't? :unsure: Isn't that one being skewed just a little by having so many pinned threads disguising its inactivity? :cry: Fair enough though I suppose, before the Silk Bullet task it was barely used.
September 30, 201014 yr :o Delta's AF is really active most of the time, and I went on Shania's once for some reason about two months ago and the last post was a month before I was there :wacko: Also sad that the Alicia forum is going (especially after we worked hard to get her one :() and also the Kelly forum :( She has a new album put either late this year or early next year so could have gotten busy again (same for Delta). Most of them on the list are very incactive tho, I can why they're going. Edited September 30, 201014 yr by Liam Gleek.

Stop criticising all of our decisions douche bag! There are sensible reasons for EVERYTHING. I think it's time mods realised this and stopped jumping on our backs every five seconds. And YES, I awoke today with a headache from hell so today I do not feel like being accommodating.
September 30, 201014 yr Be weird seeing so few after all this time, but should help breathe some more life into genre forums for a while if the odd newsbite comes along.
September 30, 201014 yr can't believe we finally got an Alicia Keys forum and now its gonna disappear :( An artist who has been sharing top spot with GaGa on (UK) commercial radio for number of plays each week for at least the last 6 months. An artist who is almost certainly in the top 10 most popular artist across many parts of the world right now (not just Buzzjack). An artist who is very soon to be a mum. can we not play the pregnancy card ? is she being discriminated against because she is pregnant ;) tis a sad day that aproaches :( And where will I go now when I need to look up facts and figures about Alicia's sales and chart runs, all that brilliant stuff Jonjo has pinned. :cry: :cry:
September 30, 201014 yr Here's a thought....take it for what it's worth......and those who want to beeyotch, go ahead.....why not just wipe the entire slate clean, all the AF'S, and all the other forums, like the chart forums, pop, indie, metal, retro, the lounge, perspectives.....wipe em all out, and start new.....and then, with the entire buzzjack slate wiped clean, you can have all the pop tart flavor of the minute forums you want here....and the hell with those artists who have a solid fanbase, not only here, but elsewhere....or those who have had long careers, and massive album sales totals over the years of their careers..... Okay....here ends my rant..... Edited September 30, 201014 yr by bigwiglaf

Okay....here ends my rant..... You people are ridiculous, it's not about who they are, it's about the amount of discussion there is, whats the point in having the forum without any discussion, it's a waste of space on the buzzjack servers, in most cases our AF's are just $h!te version of other forums for these artists, i think the only artist who doesnt have a more active and better forum elsewhere on the net is Darius. I expect you would like to pay the server bill that Phil pays for out of his own pocket and doesnt make it all back on the advertising on this site? and all the time he puts into the making buzzjack work.

Thanks Chris. Nicely summarised. All of the artists with forums were successful once but as Chris has said, there's no point keeping them if no one is using them! The Beatles may have sold a squillion records worldwide, that alone is not reason to have a forum if there is no fanbase here to actually use it. And as for Lift Me Up's points about looking up stats and chart runs and things, all that will remain in the archived forum.
September 30, 201014 yr All godd decisions as far as I can see. I admit it is somewhat of a dissapointment that the Alicia forum is for the chop already, but it was a forgone conclusion it would happen, and no doubt this ridicolous Katy Perry we so 'needed' will be in a similar posistion a few months down the line. And presumably if and when the artist does come back into a posistion of being very popular on the site yet again (as Kelly Clarkson for example probably will) then the forum can be re-instated?
September 30, 201014 yr I didn't get a PM for the BEPs forum closure! :o But fair enough, it's barely ever used and loads of spammers are attracted to it. :lol:

September 30, 201014 yr Author SHUT UP. It's not easy to send about 30 PMs to people who keep changing their names! :P
