Is it just me, or don't we already have a forum that could serve to address the very issues we just voted down? Note forum below? This would suffice for subjects not pertaining to new wave music, or dj related topics? Yes?

True: another poorly worded forum descriptive. Still doesn't mean you should post readily available shit there though.

after reading all of the buzz about the *to post or not to post* debate, it would seem that even IF someone wanted to post paula abdul on the NNNW thread, they should have the prerogative to do so. personally, i'm no fan of the american idol diva, and follow rush's advice of choosing freewill by not even bothering to read the thread. if the place is for non-new wave tunes, then let it go...

Well, I'm not advocating the posting of readily available, or off topic. But, if people must post, the forum already exists. And I don't think they should have the freedom to post anything they wish off topic on a site that exists for the purpose of an ON topic subject. The rest of the internet exists to post whatever you wish.
