OK I have had some mail on this subject,and thought about it for a while,and here is something to think about.
I can make a new section,only viewable to members of a certain group.
I can make those groups whatever you want them to be called,vanman jokingly said Ozarks Drum Circle in a post the other night,and with the PMs I've gotten this is what came of it.
Each member of the groups should have a minimum number of posts,so not just anyone can get in,but they have to be an active member of the forums.
Guitarists will not be able to post in the Drum Circle,ect. Only the staff will have full access.
I will have to set the permissions to let you in manually,so if you want in a group I will have to approve you,and then allow access.So it will not be an automatic thing,Sorry couldn't get around it.
Your Group will be displayed under your username in the mini profile to the left of the page,and each will have a different color.
Only 1 group per user,I may be able to get around this one,I'm not sure yet.
OK What I need is some cool names for each section,and I don't want to break it into genre,just a general name. And what is a good post count for a minimum before being approved,I'm thinking 100.
Also I would like to keep the main on topic discussions related to music in the public forums,that's what draws new memberships,but this will give each group a place to hangout and shoot the breeze,joke,and whatever.Kind of secret club,all forum rules still apply. Although no real powers will be applied,you will get a tag with what instrument you play under your name like mine is right now.
Is this a good idea,or just rediculous? Give me some feedback.
thanks
