Posted March 29, 201114 yr As you may already know, management closed the artist request forum and we decided we would add a new AF as and when we felt one could be successful. Due to the mega success of Adele lately, we have decided to give an Adele AF a go. It will be on trial for 2 months and if it isn't deemed a success by the end of may then it will be removed. if you would like to apply for the post of AF leader, please PM myself or Slick stating your case. Ta ^_^
March 29, 201114 yr Without wishing to seem all NEG NANCY, I'm going to predict this one isn't going to take off. She's not exactly dominating the Pop forum (a 24 page thread's good comparatively, yes, but it's not the sort of demand that would indicate the forum's likely to be a massive success.) and I can't see her generating the sort of headlines that keep the Lady Gaga/Britney forums in shape during their off-seasons. She's more an artist like Alicia Keys that keeps her genre forum in ship-shape but doesn't really have enough interest going for her personally to justify a personal AF I feel. Yeah, I'm willing to be proved wrong on this, but I don't really see a future for any new AFs unless there's the sort of overwhelming interest that there was for the likes of Gaga. Good luck though!
March 29, 201114 yr Author Yeah, I agree its hard to tell when one will take off, but I am really hoping it does. if it flops, then it will go :(
March 30, 201114 yr Sorry but I have to agree with Tyron on this one. :( I'd be surprised if it took off, as apart from within the Chart Forum, I've rarely seen any mass amounts of discussion about her across the site. No harm in trying however I guess. Will more forums be removed, btw?

March 30, 201114 yr Yes, a few more will be up for the chop shortly! Okay :D Has management ever discussed about increasing the amount of topics visible on the first page in the pop forum before? I reckon it could be a good way of increasing a lot of discussion in there once a lot of the af's have gone. It seems to work well on other forums? Meh just an idea.
March 30, 201114 yr Woah really? :o I'm think I'll have to agree with Tirrun, tbf if J-Lo can't have one why should Adele (and just for the record I'm not biased, I loon both artists)
March 30, 201114 yr Well for one, Adele's far more successful than J.Lo at the moment. And secondly, J.Lo's already HAD an artist forum, which tanked. Not that either should have one anyway in my view, but then I'd have about all about eight of the AFs culled...
March 30, 201114 yr You've killed one of the few threads in the pop forum I actually want to read. :(

You can change it yourself in Board Settings, the maximum is 40.

April 1, 201114 yr Nobody likes a liar Chris. shh. i had to lie to get my point across. that and i was attempting (and failing) to be funny. as usual. infact tbh i was gonna delete the post but tyron went and quoted me.

Not that either should have one anyway in my view, but then I'd have about all about eight of the AFs culled... The J.Lo forum tanked due to her flopping on her fine arse with Brave and Louboutins. There is more of a buzz for her now. :( Oh well.
