Getting rid of forums... - EvBoard

Katya · 07-18-2007, 07:38 PM

May I suggest that the "Talk to Evanescence" and "Messages from Evanescence" forums be closed? No one from the band comes here anymore (John did a couple of times recently, but he hasn't been back in a couple of months). Members may want to reference old threads or posts in the forums, so I didn't think that flat-out deleting them would be a good idea.

I agree with Katya. They're pretty useless (and misleading to noobs that don't know better) unless the band members start coming around again, which looks pretty slim right about now.

What about moving the 'Messages from Band Members' posts to the Evanescence Chat forum?

IAW Katya.

I like the idea of keeping the "Messages from Evanescence" around for nostalgia and that they shouldn't be open to posting.

The talk to Evanescence forum could easily go away in my opinion. There are a few really old threads of interest in there, but nothing else.

Perhaps any good threads from those forums could be thrown into the Ev Graveyard and we'll call it good?

Maybe closing all of them and purely keep them around for referencing, archive, and memories?

I agree, close them to new posts. But keep them around

Yeah I think it would be a good idea to get rid of them. Kind of a sore reminder actually.

Can we not have a huge change right after another?
