Kamusta ang bagong server natin sa PhilMusic.com? Mas mabilis ba? Mas mabagal? Nakaka-receive pa rin ba kayo ng database connection errors?

Edge, we actually pointed the philmusic.com domain to a totally new server - this one is in California :) The old one was somewhere in the east coast. It takes about 48 hrs (ah tama ba chette) for a new domain pointer to propagate throughout the Internet. When I was trying to access the board from my office network in the morning I was still getting the "forbidden" message but on a nearby wifi hotspot, all clear.

About the signatures - it's just a matter of discipline on the part of the users - some guys just insist on putting large billboard type sigs no mater how we suggest restraint or suggest appropriate sizes (468 x 60 pixels maximum). We can ban graphics in sigs altogether though - i think that is an option in the admin section.

About bandwidth use of sigs, that doesn't affect our server because the graphics are being pulled from someplace else (imagebucket, etc.) but it does affect the board design and also the time it takes for you to download the page. 

So if everyone cooperates in reducing the size of sig graphics, all well and good. If not... well, we'll see what we can do :)

Nope - that's a low priority at the moment. The talk.philmusic.com migration took top billing. Same thing with photos.philmusic.com - down at the moment while we upgrade the gallery software to something more current. In time, in time...

I think the main reason this board gets the attention is that when it goes down, in just 5 minutes people manage to bug us non stop through text, email, and IM to get it back up... sheesh!!  :evil:

Suggestion: Time Saver
« Reply #14 on: March 01, 2007, 07:34:37 PM »
because of the addictive nature of browsing this forum, i would like to make some time saving suggestions:

1. ban thread bumping / "up"-ing - sure it puts a topic on top or on the front pages, but sayang talaga yung oras sa pag scroll ng ang haaaaaaabaaaaang "up" posts lang. other forums like philMUG (mac users group) ban bumping. concise, simple, useful, practical = efficient.

2. wag din sana mag-post ng "no added value" comments. these come in the form of "ganda naman nyan!" or "danda naman ser!" or "WOW! (with tulo laway smiley), etc. no offense meant, but better sana pag posted comments are of help, informational and educational. better for all.

3. enforce proper title-ing of topics. fictional for example lang: sa guitar classifieds: > FS: electric guitar.
yun lang. o diba sana man lang nilagyan nung model or make para may clue naman yung nagb-browse?

as of this writing i'm still at newbie status (8 posts?). but i don't mind. matagal naman na akong lurker!!! kidding aside, i don't see why others have to pad topics with ups, bumps, kung may pera lang ako posts if all it accomplishes is waste our precious time while not adding any "nutritional value" to what we devote some of our spare time to.

yun lang, just my 2 cents worth. sorry in advance if anybody gets offended. it's not my intention. just wanted to save some of our time so we can do other stuff pa... like practice para gumaling tumugtog, read books, sleep earlier, etc.
if you have something for framing...

The suggestion has come up once in a while. But so far, the mods haven't found it too annoying yet. They'll scream when it does.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Enhanced Calendar feature?
« Reply #16 on: April 13, 2007, 09:29:07 AM »
Jim & Chette --

Right now, bdays lang ata pina-publish nito and I'm sure not all are represented.  IMO, maliit value nito.  Tsaka the people who want to greet fellow forumites already know their bdays and don't look at the calendar feature to keep track.

Instead I suggest users (artists as well as productions and clubs/bars) be allowed to input:
- gig skeds of bands/artists
- clinics, workshops, etc.
- other music related events (Rock awards, Battle of the bands, etc.)

It'd be nice if the user can provide details too:  you click a Calendar entry and it takes you to gig details in another website or a thread started by the user in the Gig announcements section. 

One benefit for the artists/bands is they can avoid better schedule their gigs and avoid overlap with artists/bands of the same genre.  Kami sa blues community di naman madalas mag-gig pero nagkakaroon pa rin ng sked conflict.  Imagine 2 blues gigs on the same night, sometimes within the same city pa!

Possible ba to?  :-)

suggestion lang po kapag mag make ng new thread, maglagay sana ng warning with red and/or bold text sa start a new topic window na nag sasabing: check kung meron na nga bang gumawa ng topic na balak gawin ng thread starter using search function.
just to always remind the new people and also the old ones... :-D

If sticky threads are sticky...

then why are they only in the first page of the forum?

may napuntahan kasi akong isang forum site where yung "sticky threads" nila e talagang sticky, either page 1 or 100 eh andun.

but then again, only the R&Rs and FAQs were stickied there.

I think phpbb software is like that pero I'm not 100% sure. This forum uses SMF and while I think it can be done, we're not that intent on modifying a lot of things just yet, concentrating more on stability and bughunting for now.

considering the # of stickies we already have in most sub-forums, i would dread having to avoid all of them by scrolling down on every page...  first page is the "best practice", IMHO.

OR

"sticky-all-pages" only the most important and LEAST read (ie Rules and Regulations) and leave the rest of the stickies in the front.

Gentlemen,

I would suggest that our THREADS should be private or accessible only to registered users.
The problem about the THREAD being public to the web is, web crawlers like ones
used by google can crawl to our thread and make it readable by googlers.

This thing maybe known to you already, anyway this is just a suggestion.


Thanks
