So Darius, great potential.

 

A bit like this forum had before it was axed. There were 13 guests reading the Darius forum at one point last night! Some of them could have eventually joined Buzzjack and posted here if it had of been left open!

 

By the way can we still feature our iconic slogan 'Buzzjack.com - No.1 For Darius' as the subtitle of the Darius News thread on the retro lounge?

Shame that from pressure that it is moving to the Retro Lounge. You all have done a great job.

 

Yes I blame myself a lot tbh for being so dedicated to defending the Darius forum in those debates on the Poster's Chart thread and on the New Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift AFs thread about its future meaning they lasted longer. Moderators' patience may have snapped and just decided to stop the debates they wanted to get rid of the Darius forum first rather than the Leona or Take That forums which have been much quieter than us recently.

 

As I said before the one positive thing is that more posters on the Retro Lounge and maybe the rest of Buzzjack will be able to get to know the great posters that up to now have mostly just posted on this on this Darius forum those being Baytree, SpamFritter, polly, Julia W, megham and eden.

Can we pack Darius's solo performance of Maybe in the suitcase, please?

That was a one-off.

 

These lyrics too? When I read then I still hear some of the melodies in my head.

The packing in a suitcase is for you to down load from the forum what you want to keep incase it is difficult to find afterwards.

 

 

To be fair, if Darius is going to be away for the best part of a year, mostly involved in film production in the US, it is probably a good time to make the move.

 

We know him well. He will put his heart and soul and every waking hour into any project to be the best he can be and do the best he can while still learning from experts in their field.

 

I must just trust the retro forum not to be claustrophobic although I fear that Darius threads on the front page may be too much for some and things will turn nasty.

I suppose so, and I do think poor Leona Lewis, Take That and The Sugababes are on borrowed time having their forums too.

 

While our forum has been quite busy recently, it probably would grind to a halt eventually when Darius starts his secret film production.

 

Is he finishing doing 'Funny Girl' then during that best part of a year? :o

I think there will be less posting anyway, with less Darius threads there. I still hope it remains quite active though, it would be sad to see Buzzjack become Darius discussion-free - Buzzjack.com must still be No. 1 For Darius! :D . I will still keep the twitter page active but put the links up to the new threads when they arrive and rename the twitter page Darius Campbell Chat.

OK, so not one large one for the hold but individual cabin baggage. I hadn't grasped that. Better get cracking on it. Not much time left.

They said there now on the Lounge monthly thread (the one in Greek) that no new artist forums will be coming in the foreseeable future, so that presumably means the Leona forum and Take That forum will be staying for the foreseeable future.

 

That just makes it even more unfair and a silly decision imo they are getting rid of this forum from the Artist Forums, when these other two forums have had very little posts on them recently and are allowed to stay "for the foreseeable future".

Why do you think he will be away for the best part of a year? I'm sure he said in one of the recent interviews that he would be back soon.... :unsure:

Do we need to maintain our Darius off topic waffle thread on the Retro Lounge? It is nice to have a general off topic thread just for any discussions between us Darius forum members that might not be just about Darius, the Robbie Williams forum has one for example.

Oh no.

 

This is like the WORST result

 

I doubt any of you will stay

 

There should be a retro subforum for old forums like this to keep the community intact. :( :(

I wouldn't to be honest. I think it's part of the reason they decided to take the personal forum off us because it wasn't always relevant to darius campbell. Just my opinion though.

Surely as this forum is so old, a couple weeks, rather than a few days, could be given to merge threads and lrt the community think of hat threads to prioritise etc? There is a LOT.

Removing it removes the community feel however.

Yet the relatively dead Take That and Leona forums get to stay "for the foreseeable future" as I said earlier on this thread. Two nights ago I saw this Darius forum had 13 guests reading it, some of those could have joined in the future if it was kept open.

 

There should be a retro subforum, I really agree with you!

 

I think everyone will stay but the few threads allowed on the retro forum will be a bit of mess and it won't attract as many posts as we have had this week (which mostly have been about relevant things for the record) as there will be less topics. I agree with you that the community feel will be partially gone too.

I think we had a good sense of community before without the off topic waffle

Edited by polly

I think we had a good sense of community anyway even before the off topic waffle

 

But off topic waffle was in the minority over the last two weeks, it has mostly been more relevant stuff about Darius Campbell and the forum we have been discussing.

 

In 2016 and the first half of 2017 the Darius forum looked much too quiet, and it got less than 300 posts last year.

We had the Bits and Pieces thread which sometimes broke rumours about Darius that turned out to be true such as throwing first hints of his role in Funny Girl, sometimes news loosely related to Darius, tiny mentions, photos in the media and sometimes some not so relevant stuff. That was/is our equivalent of a waffle thread.

I agree. Bits and pieces is a much better thread to keep.
