oh, whoops I was about to remove it and I got sidetracked, thanks for reminding me! M@X said on the Fantomas thread that he'd add it so I should've removed it earlier

The site will be undergoing a fairly extensive "re-vamp" soon.  As part of that re-vamp, there will, among other things, be new categories, including a specific category for discussing which bands people believe should or should not be on ProgArchives.

In the meantime, please be patient.  And feel free to continue to debate until the time comes...

Peace.





Awesome Maani!

Can anything that has stirred up such strength of feeling be a bad thing for the forum?

I want to see our Queen Of Prog Mariah returned to the main discussions section so I can continue on with a normal life. Every time I go to the main discussions there is this void, a distant memory of the greatest thread ever started on Progarchives. The numbers speak for themselves. C`mon Maani put it back in it`s rightful place which is on the top of the main discussions.

On a more of a serious note, I find that as this site acquires more members and interest some of the threads have become less interesting and redundant to a certian extent which is why I skip over alot of them. But the Mariah thread should be Progarchives epitaph!

If it was in one thread I agree.  I am speaking of 5 -6 threads dealing with pretty much the same thing.  Page 1 is pointless right now.

I think that the Petition to bring a group into prog archives obviously does nothing by bringing to it the posters of the forum.  I would suggest that you petition Max and Ronnie with a detailed LOGICAL reason as to why you feel that band should be included.  As you can tell this is their site not ours and they will make the decision based on what they feel is right.  Putting all these threads here will do very little good and they are annoying.  I hate watching good threads leave page 1 or 2 because they won't be resurrected by annoying repetitive things like this.

oh, well in that case I'm all for it!  But that Fantomas thread is staying on the first page no matter where it's moved until Shrinking Violet and I can declare   VICTORY!!

Oh yeah, of course, I'm not saying you should or shouldn't, my proposition is only to rechannel that type of conversation somewhere else.

even so, what harm would there be in having a subforum for the topic? regardless of the recent hysteria, people still do bring up the topic from time to time, and it just doesn't seem appropriate for the main discussion area. its more like "suggestions for progarchives" material.
