If you don,t like it ?

i dont see the point in slagging djs off

1 thing i think is i will never be as gud as them so there no nee 2 slag them off lol

....... oh and get some PLUR everyone

point...maybe for now we can post random posts in the humor forum...cos i know there are still some of us who want to talk random..."what are you doing" "hamsters or elasic bands" that kinda thing.

there are sum of us who are still teenagers and we like a bit of random crap

i do agree no1 should be slating djs, just as i dont think we should be slating each other.

i for one have been the 'victim' of abuse via the board and there is no need for it. the djs view the board just like the rest of us and its never nice to see some one pulling you to pieces for no reason.

mark, rob, im sorry if i have offended you with my randomness but i just want a laff with my mates....i talk random crap in real life and i talk random crap on the internet...its just me.

i like posting on the board. i like talking to people on the board. i like talking to people i met on the board on messenger. i like going to promise. i like having a laff with my mates and under no circumstances do i want the board shut down.

nehows....can i post randomness in the humor forum?

Eventually someone with some sence......Spence!

Why was'nt that just done in the first place tho..... ?

I think there is a mod for vBulletin that does the same. Might be a good idea so there is more ways mods can deal with people! Plus it sound like a beeter way of dealing with things other then straight away banning

Tranceaddict is on Vbulletin

:groovy:

yep join tranceaddict hehehehe

im on trance addict as cyberdog... dont post much, but i like it for info

u hoping du_monde offer u money for your email address?

....... and a couple more points

everyone's gotta appreciate that Mark pays good money to host the msg board, and the whole point is to promote Promise.... so anyone dissing Promise, dissing the DJs, promoting rival nights has gotta expect whats coming

Also, all due respect Mark, but i dont reckon tact and diplomacy are ya strong points! yeah customers can be complete twats, the ppl on this board are your best and most loyal customers, and I can see why u get pissed off sometimes but giving them a right good kicking on here aint the best way to deal with it. Get Rob to slap em about a bit instead

why would they want a hotmail adress?

dunno, im a plum

This is a wicked board and there is no reason it should stop.

Try selling a bit of advertising to cover some of the costs, afterall I know how expensive it is to keep message boards running. But people are people and all the comments have to be taken with a pinch of salt.

You have to have rules to a certain extent. We dont allow porn or racism, apart from that if people want to have a rant and a rave then so be it, as long as they don't get personal to other members then thats fine....

We send people warnings, as we don't want to ban any1, but if they continually abuse the board the it's ta ta....eek.

I get the impression the Promise Board is just a bit big to keep it just to Promise as a club. People are spending large proportions of their time on here and the day to day humdrums of life are creeping onto the board.

At the end of the day Mark/Rob it is your board and you call the shots. If people don't like it then tuff shit.

:chill:

thats a good point actually...wether im at college or at home, as long as the computer is on, im on the net and have the promise board open. the only time im not on is when martin hijacks the computer cos hes too stingy to get the net at his house
i know there are others like me who will understand that, if theres nothing happening on the board, you get very bored...and if someone, ne1 posts a new thread, how ever boring or random it may be, its interesting bcaus you aint seen nething happen in like an hour.
if say you only come on the board for half an hour a day it could be quite tedious to have to look threw 10 new random thread b4 u find nehting of interest...but for us who are clicking refresh ever 5 minutes hoping sumthings happend. those 10 threads helped us to stop our boredom while theres nothing on tele

but i feel the idea of a new random forum would be a good move because then the people who come on for half an hour a night, would only haev to look at mission control and could block out all the other threads...make it happed guys...come on!!

Gotta say I'm with Heather on this one, you've summed it all up really well!!

Since I lost my job a week ago I've been on the board all the time and random bullshit helped me pass the time. I dont mind it but theres a place for it and having a random forum would help. That way all the bitching will stop cos people who don't want to see it don't have to!!!

I just want the fighting to stop

me too...come on guys...we were all happy smily friends 2 weeks ago.
lets just kiss and make up..please please please? think of the children.
im gonna start a group hug thread in the humor forum...ne1 who wants the fighting to end....post sumthing happy...teddys or flowers

i look @ the promise board from 8 in the morning til half 3 then quite often on an evening 2!!!!

yes u get bored with some of the ramdom threads but then i just ignore them............it's also quite funny to realise how bored other ppl r with their day 2!!!!!!

don't agree wit hppl bein grude 2 each other

there is a difference between friendly banter & generally being a twat 2 sum1!!!



please don't close the board mark, cos the majority of us aren't the problem (except for the odd radom thread )

so please the sad minority spoil it 4 the rest of us that it helps keep sane!!!

yes...you cant close it down...what would i do with myself durin the day!!

i mean, even these bitchy and fighting posts have been keeping me entertained....at the moment when im bored i sleep...i dont want to b sleeping 24 hrs a day!

save the board! save the board!

mark, seeing as how i came all the way from america to go to your club because of the people i met on your message board, i think it would be pretty stupid for you to shut it down. your business would be significantly hurt by doing so.

the internet was invented to give every jackass in the world an anonymous voice to say whatever they want without any fear of retribution. expecting *all* people to be responsible with their posts is ridiculous.. the only way for you to keep these boards nice and orderly is to have the mods delete posts and ban people. to do that, i would suggest you find mods who have alot of free time, and good common sense. i spent alot of time online while i was in england, and i didnt see gizmo on the boards more than a handful of times. joe was online quite a bit, which is good. i didnt really see kerry on much either. you should get some good older types who think along the same lines as you do, and give them the power to get the job done.

I also read something about people being harsh to DJS. I hate to break it to you people, but everyone has a right to their opinion. i always try to be helpful when i give criticism of DJs. If i thought for one minute that Mark or Rob would ban me for giving my opinion on some DJs music i would never post on this board again, nor would i ever go to the club again... like Si said, if you push the people on the board away, you are also pushing away your customers... and here in america, we have a saying.. "the customer is always right!"

anyways, just thought i would give my opinion since i like to make things better and i am not some brainwashed english type like some people on here, ... who think promise is the end-all-be-all of life... its just a club, its just a message board, and its just a small part of life.

I hate to nit pick but the internet was invented as a means for libraries to list their stock so anyone can access it!!!!

SORRY

everyone needs to chill out...
