i voted "yes" without really giving it any thought.

but, after thinking about it, i don't think it would be a good idea. the place should just stay as it is now.

I've (idk about you guys) gotten too used to it like this, and it would just be weird trying to adjust to a new setup.

maybe you should try a test run of it to see how well it works out, and if it sucks, then change it back.

(if you can do that...?)

John you used to be one of the biggest offenders of this. Remember my original FHT thread? You had 70 some posts in there and only 2 actually had anything to do with anything.

Furthermore, I dont think anyone that is in favor of splitting them has EVER said every thread on this forum should have to do with Green Day. What I am reading is they would like to be able to access it in a more organized manner.

Despite my less than hippie way of saying what I think, your FHT thread was one of the most successful (in terms of length and posters) on the forum, so you can't really complain there.

Just fuckin' do it, dude.

If it does not work out then put the goddamn section the way it was.

That wouldnt hurt anything if you do that because it would be like a test run and if a lot of memebers dont like it. He can just change it back but it would of been a lot of unnessesary work.

I'd just like to point out this place isn't nearly that dead. It's not as crazy busy as it used to be, but it is faaaar from dead.

No, I don't think it's dead, either... I joined back in '05, and almost everyone was assholes to me. There are less assholes now, so I don't see that as a negative :lol: jk but really, there is a point when it gets too busy, too big, and I think right now it's good. There are some really nice, smart people floating around this forum now, and I like them. I know when more news comes in, the floodgates will open. Which is a good and a bad thing. Without growth, you grow stagnate. But with growth, comes fangirls *dun dun duuuuuun*

Scary stuff :blink:

My point was you took 77 posts of posting bullshit instead of posting your opinion once. Thats the kind of stuff those of us that wanna discuss the band tire of. Thats why so many people I know don't come here. Posts like that annoy them enough that they dont leave. Nothing personal, but I would much rather discuss band related stuff with people that know and still care about the band.

and for the record, I wasnt complaining about the thread. My BIAB thread was just as successful. I know you care about that stuff, but to be honest I dont give a rats ass about any that.

At first, when I joined, I thought to myself, "Hey, if this is a GD forum, then why does it have threads about hair, news, and snacks?"

But yeah, I'm used to it now. I think it would be really weird if we split it.

For now, no. There just isn't enough topics for both sections to keep them going separately. Until a new album comes out or something big happens there really is no point in splitting them up.

I say to hell with people who don't really care about Green Day anymore. It's the GREEN DAY Commnunity and if they wanna socialize here with the rest of the Green Day fans, they can work around the Green Day related threads.

I like discussing both Green Day and general crap, I think it would annoy me to have to go to different pages to post in both. I find it cozy the way it is.

My 2 cents.

That would be so great, in a perfect world, but people won't do that :( they'll stay, they'll bitch, they'll complain and be mean. Cause a lot of them enjoy it. They like to piss on other's bonfires :lol:

You know what I think Andres truly?

We've done this severaly times and they always get merged back

together after about a month.

I really don't see the point seeing as there is one more

con than pro about spliting the two.

So I think they should just be left alone.

I think it would be perfectly great.

I don't even care about Green Day anymore, really.

If I start caring again, I'll probably have an easier time to find certain Green Day threads in a Green Day section.

I don't think it would be quiet. The spam threads will occur in the General section anyway.

That's what keeps them in-the spam!

bad idea

GDC is great as it is

If you want something new: IM on GDC, (for free)

Do you really think so with your 7 whole posts?

I think it should stay as it is. But once they roll out with the new album you should split up the forums. I don't want see all those new people making tons of green day threads "OMG". Its going to get hard to sort through all the topics, its hard now. Then once it dies down just merge it back together.

Arg! I hate those threads I hope people dont make them even though Im pretty new here I wouldnt want to see all of that. Green Day chats should be more than omg stuff and billie joe is hawt stuff.

Lmao

Ok, I was going to say to do this when there are more Green Day news around, but I understand that it will be harder to separate all the threads then. So just do it now, cuz when Green Day comes back it will be way much better, and people who don't like Green Day anymore will stop putting stupid comments in the GD threads.

I think people who dont like Green Day anymore should stay out of "Green Day" threads there are many other threads to look through more than enough.

But if they are in a seperate section most of the people that ruin those threads wont go there.

You joined this place because you did care about green day. Why? Cause it's the GREEN DAY COMMUNITY. If you don't want to partake in the Green Day threads, then don't. But don't suggest we change the community because you've lost interest in the band. Deal with it.

:o That was mean

I'm sorry. *Holds you close and kisses you softly*

That's the point I was trying to concur.
