Ok, here is a novel idea. On the music board, actually give the "like" button some significance.
If you are posting your band's new song, or your new dubstep/folk-rap/heavy polka album, you are given a certain time frame to get a certain amount of "likes" before it gets anchored.
This would cause people to actually use a function of the site that is (IMO) meaningless now, and also give people to become somewhat invested in a thread, perhaps even to the point of saying "hey, users not on the music board or TD right now! Come check out this new JC/codythetiger album. It's legit!"
This would increase traffic, and also make the board a destination for budding musicians.

That sounds awful and unproductive

I want the music board to be about legit music, not a Myspace Music ripoff that has every "artist" trying to get their name out there

This is going to happen anyway with the music board. This would create a "self-destruct" mechanism for unworthy bands.

move rap to the soccer board

And as I asked in the other thread -- which Dick Nixon did you know? Are you old enough to have seen them live?

Obviously, we will need to curb the trolling and mocking of people who have different tastes in music.

If you link to a YouTube video, I would expect to have the Band and Song name in the link's title.

And I don't want to see threads with just the band's name in the subject field. Please be more explicit in what your thread is about.

Thoughts?

I hope to use the board to make playlists on Rhapsody.


I agree 100%, great idea and I look forward to the day the music board goes live!

I think the music board will do good, but I also support the health board too.

I'm with you bee. Either Chicken has the analytics to back up the reasoning behind the diluting of boards into a craptastic amount of boards or he's just so boss, he wants to create a new board just to beef up his calsthenics playlist.

A thread can fall off the front page of the OT in under ten minutes, I doubt its in danger of being diluted.

you realize by spawning off topics that have the staying power to not fall off into their own boards, what you just posted, proved my point, right?

there are only eleven threads about music on the first 15 pages of the OT. Would be 9 had Davy Jones not died. 2 of the others are about the same thing, and 4 others failed to reach a second page.

there would be more traffic on a masturbation board, or even a bowel movements board.
