Time for some feedback you can choose as many as you want, what are you favourite chart topics, is there room for improvement, is there anything else that needs adding, its time to have your say within reasons off course.

 

Any layouts that need improving, to make the topic a lot clearer.

Poor forgotten predicta threads, reshuffle chart, chart survivor and discuss what you're buying :(

 

I like all of them, but my favourites are the Sunday chart show thread, the iTunes thread and the Year-to-dates. I'll also give hate chart a mention because I host it and I would appreciate more people voting in it :ph34r:

 

I do think there are a few too many prediction threads at the moment. There should just be a general 'predict the peaks for this month's releases' thread with a few threads dedicated to predicting one song saved for just songs that will get a lot of discussion (for example, We Can't Stop and Burn deserve their own predicta threads but the new DJ Fresh, Rizzle Kicks singles don't)

I actually disagree and would say that WCS and Burn don't need predicition threads as it's been clear in the last few weeks that they're going to do well (although if they were put up when the songs premiered, then that's fine, but I can't remember if they were or not). I think with songs like Earthquake and LG, it's not as clear and they could both go just Top 40 or they could go Top 10. Therefore, it's more interesting when it's not clear as people can have completely different opinions.

We Can't Stop and Burn had predicta threads weeks before they became obvious #1s. It's just that we don't need a prediction thread for EVERY SONG when we have the 'predict August releases' thread

For me, I've null voted, as I like to see what areas need improving, or left alone.

 

I do agree with some of the comments regarding prediction threads as said above, this is one area that needs improving as there seems to be the odd case where some members do not add a poll and a you tube video to some prediction threads, it like talking about thin air, and there was an odd case where a prediction thread on a Natalia Kills track, which is hardly going to make a dent in the chart over here, a bit of a pointless topic to be honest.

 

If anyone has a problem with adding a poll and a you tube video please PM a chart mod or a GM, we can guide you along.

 

This is the reason I bought this subject up, just to find out what needs tuning and ironing out.

Oh yes prediction threads without a youtube video and a poll annoy me as they look so unprofessional :( And people should think about how likely a song is to chart before making a prediction thread for it. We've had Backstreet Boys and B*Witched threads recently, there really is no point.

What are 'Gezza's threads'? I do enjoy all his posts obv lol but what is this - chart history topics?

I mainly follow the iTunes chart and Chart predictions as they are always changing and it can give you a regular update as to how sales are progressing.

 

Having abandoned all hope of the Radio 1 chart ever improving I've started to follow the chart on BuzzJack and comment on what songs I'm loving or hating using the hate chart (which i find very relaxing :lol:) and to have the use of the site to interact with everyone else which I think is more fun and interesting!

 

I agree with a previous comment about the amount of 'predict where xxxx will chart' especially without a poll or video and again the choice of act because some acts mentioned are highly unlikely to see the top 100 so I do think may e a monthly predictor could work and then update if any other releases are out OAOS.

 

But otherwise I enjoy coming on Buzzjack and having discussions and sharing music with everyone!!

I've been snubbed :drama:

Whoops... I've just twigged.... the chart commentaries :drama: thought I covered everything. :(

YTD chart, iTunes and weekly top 100s for me. They're the threads I most look forward to every week, and pay most attention to. The Sales topic gets a shoutout too.

Oh yes prediction threads without a youtube video and a poll annoy me as they look so unprofessional :(

 

It's an informal online forum, what is there to be professional about?

Maybe professional isn't the right word, I just want threads to look nice :( Adding a poll, youtube video and correct spelling doesn't take too much effort.

I voted Sales, YTD and NRS although I forgot to select Gezza's threads too so could a chart mod please add 100 votes to that on my behalf? :D

I think that Buzzjack is the best site for the music (For me). Some people do great work with their topics (Vidcapper, Bre, ManicKangaroo & MasterJon, Mart!n, Gezza e.tc). My favourite topics are Year To Dates, New Release Schedule and "The Top 100 Singles + Albums Chart". Some of them are very addictive like "The iTunes Thread" and some of them are very promising like "Topics by Gezza". I always follow the "Sunday Chart Predictions" and "Sunday Chart Show Thread". Hate chart would be too if the bad songs deserved to be the winners... But i have noticed that people vote artists and not songs. For example, someone who dislike Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez because they are female and pop stars, he will always vote their songs either good or bad. But this doesn't represent the hate for songs but the hate for artists. So, it should be called Hate Artists Chart instead of The Hate Chart. I like Bruno Mars as an artist but i dislike his new song "Treasure". I gave him points every week. I didn't like Iggy Azalea as persona but "Work" and "Bounce" doesn't sound bad to me. So i didn't give her points..It's simple..:)

I voted for quite a few but the best two for me are the Sales and the Reshuffle chart. The Reshuffle chart was actually the reason I joined Buzzjack - it was the week Robin Thicke first got to number one and I thought I'd better join to try and prevent him getting the reshuffle number one!! I also love the YTD totals and the Hate Chart.

I really enjoy following the Sunday Chart Show thread, as someone who has been regularly listening to it for years, Its great that I can follow people who are doing the same. I really like the retro section in it as well. I also of course enjoy following Sunday Chart Predictions, Gezza's threads, the Reshuffle chart, Sales & (though it can be borderline insufferable) the iTunes thread.

I voted Sales, YTD and NRS although I forgot to select Gezza's threads too so could a chart mod please add 100 votes to that on my behalf? :D

Done :D

Year To Dates and Sales ^_^
