Lore Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I like the sponsoring a newbie idea. but if one gets a brat as a newbie can we trade? :laugh4: that's a good point :wacky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 even today, when I started posting, I was kinda scared that people wouldn't be nice or that the 'old' ppl wouldn't know who I was anymore... and even when I was posting constantly here I was always so scared that people wouldn't like me or ignore me or something... Well I missed you and I'm glad you're around again. :nice: Don't see how anyone could forget you. maybe a sponsor a newbie is on the cards :P there was this thing called guardians for newbies on another forum i used to participate more than just frequently... :) Those sound like good ideas...

Pseudonym Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 If a million new members join just for this album, the whole site will be slower for everyone. Someone should make a seperate but similar site just for LP4 to avoid overcrowding. Anyone wanna run this by the Administrator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK8 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 WHat threads scare you?? I think I may have comitted the ultimate sin once...although it was not my fault. There was a thread posted in ONLY by Mods & Admin, and it was a sort of private conversation, but the thread was open on the homepage, so I figured it was ok to post my 2c. (I even said something about hoping it was ok). The thread promptly dissappeared again after that...so I guess someone hadn't set the permissions properly,lol.:embarassed::lol: (Ian might remember what I'm talking about...) That reminds me of the time when I had access to the moderator's only forum,let's just say i was surprised by some of the things i read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone should make a seperate but similar site just for LP4 to avoid overcrowding. Anyone wanna run this by the Administrator? I don't think a million will come so don't worry. A couple hundred more maybe and they'll come over a period of time. Like the first batch will come after the first single is heard, the next lot once the album is released, another lot when they announce a massive tour and the last lot when they win some major awards.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Magpie Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 what do you do then? babysit ? :rolleyes: :laugh4: Nope, only advise what to do, what not to do ... Except that this forum is pretty tolerant to anyone/anything so generally there shouldn't be any problems for a newb to adapt. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Eyes Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 yeah ... and perhaps getting this interest back is also a good thing before getting LP4!! :D yes!:) you know, I can't wait to buy that album!:rolleyes: btw - what's your name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42rock89 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 It looks like I got here just in time then :P ;) It also depends on wether coldplay advertise an official forum or not because im pretty sure its not advertised on their site atm so when to discuss things coldplay, first thing that comes up is this forum and if it stays that way, expect A LOT more newcomers than ever before :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Eyes Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I'm Nina. :) hi Nina - I'm Nora... you know, both of us have a name start with the letter 'N'... nice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 The mods would be busy trying to separate the newcomers and to find the newcomers who just come to make trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your name is really Norwegian I must say. Perhaps because of Ibsen :) I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember there was a thread about this.. but anyway, i just go to the lounge and then check the world of music/entertainment&arts. If i'm really bored i'll check the new posts too.

Ms Magpie Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I check User CP from time to time. Otherwise it is The Lounge, WoM and Non-Coldplay Multimedia. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 That reminds me of the time when I had access to the moderator's only forum,let's just say i was surprised by some of the things i read.

The Mad Hatter Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 LIKE ME!!! :laugh4: Okay, I joined like half a year after the buzz sort of died, but I still count.

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 i don't know what conversation is going on, but i made this thread so i'm gunna interrupt it. How do you guys browse the forum? do you go from section to section? I go to new posts and go through that, but i think i'm going to have to stop that. i never use the user CP. i actually figured out kind of late (like last year) that you could use it to see who's writing in the threads you've recently written in! i usually only use the user CP for changing my sig and PMs, and when i come here, i always go to the coldplay section, then the lounge, and then WoM, and when i'm particularly bored, i'll look around the other forums. i tend to visit the same ~60 threads or so anyway, though more recently because of all the excitement!
