Can a reduction in views affect the future existence of the Darius forum ?

They say not but who knows.

Just keep coming here and let us hope for the best.

I really like to come here you are all a friendly bunch. :D

They weren't saying much when they changed the format to request a forum but they did say that was being considered.

How many mbs are saved by such a move? It just sounds petty and divisive to me.

 

Bit strange phantom forums coming in their top ten/twenty. Or or we ( the underclass of 18) going to be airbrushed out of them too?

Which phantom forums are they?

Us for a start.

It does mean that our views will have gone down - which is a pest. We know have an 'Animal Farm' situation - all our forums are equal but some are more equal than others.

 

 

Now I am getting confused!!! Why will our views have gone down just because we aren't listed on the front page? I thought our views must have gone up - we've gone up on the Forum chart, so the views must have gone up haven't they?!! I assume it means that Darius isn't 'googled' as much as other Optional artists, so to get more people signing to the site they have listed the most popular artists on the front page so as to get them to enter the Forum and sign up. The more members 'Buzzjack' have, the more people will maybe discover what Darius is up to - and that's got to be a good thing!!!

 

Hopefully, it won't be too long before things start to happen again and more people will want to find out what he is up to!!! :D Ramble, ramble, ramble......!!! :lol:

But if people look at the front page and don't see a forum there, they can't click on it to have a look. I wouldn't think of there being other forums within the site to those listed.

No, that's true - but once they're in, then, hopefully they will notice. At least it will get them into Buzzjack and we have to face the fact that too many people don't even know Darius is still on the music scene and so will not be looking for him purposely!! It would obviously be better for him to be listed on the front page and I know that we all tend to think he is being completey overlooked when this sort of thing happens - all we can do at the moment is promote him as much as we can and enjoy our Forum (afterall, it is one of the most popular on Buzzjack!!! and I believe we will be Buzzjack's No.1 Forum in the not too distant future!! :dance:

He's still recording, so the album is a way off. I'd be happier if I could hear it - but then, wouldn't we all.

Then why did he tell Sue and Chris way back in June that the album was all but ready?!!!! Sometimes I'd rather he tell us the bad rather than the good and then when something happens we would all be pleased and pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed at waiting soooooooo long!! :rolleyes: I'm still hoping that there will be something else happening before the album release, otherwise I just can't see him getting any media coverage - I just hope that he and his management have BIG promotion plans with no expense spared, otherwise.....what's the point in taking such care over the perfect album?!!! It seems ages since June - I miss him and the excitement!!! :(

He has finished writing it and has done most of the demos. This is the next step. I think he was telling the truth but the meaning was different to him than us. We knew he was recording in London after Guys and Dolls and then again, in LA, then back in London again. The writing has always been so important to him and the demos show the songs work.

It's been too long.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It always is. It has been ages this time. He was hoping to have time to get it out this year. If something good comes up, he'll do it. He feels free to as long as he keeps true to his music. I would like to hear some clips now, even though I know it's not possible.

The trouble is too many people have not been aware of those "good" things he's done, especially G&D. If it isn't South of the Wash and if in addition, people are not from Southern England, they barely get a mention.

The plus of him being somewhere other than London was the fact that people seemed so impressed with him. I'd rather have London, selfishly, as some other places are just so difficult to get to.

Like Liverpool. I couldn't believe that such a major city had such rotten transport links.

 

 

It was even difficult to drive to - well, driving to was OK but driving in ws a real pest. How many of us ended up going towards the tunnel when we didn't want to?

and that is after the traffic jams on the M6. The alternative was the wallowing Virgin Pendalino train!

The first time I've ever been sea sick on a train. If I go back there, the car will come, 2 hr traffic jam or not.
