TOPIC: The Blue Forum

The Blue Forum 5 years, 10 months ago #1

I've just noticed that my signature on the official forum has been edited to remove the link to here. It used to say "More Aussie chat: www.tapfs.com/", now it just says "More Aussie chat: www.". I thought this looked a bit odd, so went to remove the whole line and it was still there. This means that they have used the censored word list to remove all references to "notaussiefloyd" from the entire site. Try searching for it on there ? not a single reference.

Given that our forum contains the core of the die-hard Aussiefloyd fan base, that we are the most supportive bunch of people you could ever wish to find and that this site is full of unsolicited free marketing for the band, why on earth would they not want people to find us???? If I had a band and my fans put up a forum dedicated to it, I?d be eternally grateful and give them all the support I could.

This has really annoyed me, so I'll tell you why. The "official" forum isn't an official forum at all, it?s a site owned and run by Colin and he hates not having control of what we post on here. He went off on one when Ian sat in for him on the last US tour and we started writing about that, and he's been running a police state over there ever since. Get over yourself, we really do like you guys a lot, and I can assure you that anything unreasonable posted on here will be removed, just as quickly as it would on the blue forum. We just have a slightly different opinion about what constitutes unreasonable.

Nick, sorry that you find yourself annoyed.
          Try not to be,as we are all,I think better than that on here?
  Just think to yourself that the action that has been taken is a short sighted error of judgement and laugh about it as such.
(if you can) ;D >

Now I'm disappointed as well as annoyed. I felt sure I could rely on you to get really pissed off about this.  ;D ;D ;D

I just went to the blue forum Nick and read your post about the show last night in B Clicked on your unofficial link and bingo....it took me straight here again.

So something still works. Maybe they changed it back again.....good move I'd say!
