How about all none Prince Music related topics (religion, Girlfriends, anything not related to his music) can go straight to those folders dedicated to those areas
AND ONLY LET the Prince related Music on the first page for everyone to view.

I'm sick of seeing Religion posts, War Posts, Girlfriend posts, Local news posts on the first page. I think it should only be Prince related on the first page and if someone is interested in viewing other topics they can go to the appropriate folders manually and find them there.

Who agrees?

Actually, I've been thinking about doing this... let's see if anyone else would like this too...

These are good examples:


Why does America continue to treat O.J. SIMPSON like a Criminal? (55 replies)

Halle Berry!The finest woman ever? but her toes? (30 replies)

Post in the Style of Another Orger! (209 replies)

Right now these posts are on the first page... why? It has nothing to do with Prince, they should go directly into a folder where people can find them manually instead of the first page.

I agree.

I agree. I just want to see posts that are Prince related. All the others can just be put on a general news board if they must do it. Keep the main board about Prince.

I agree, it should be all about his shitty music on the main page

Me too.

i agree whole heartedly

But since trivial threads are often the most active, it could be sorta ironic. It could like some gay bar where most people head straight to the backroom... I hear..

I agree with the original poster. I would have posted the request myself if I wasn't so lazy.

If you want to see Prince related topics at the top or on the first page, might I suggest you join in and post more often.

Xenon! Willing to do the work!

Also, I object to the phrase "trivial" that you used Aerogram. Who decides what is trivial? Beats OT j/k


Maybe I'll crosspost this to GD for a more balanced view.

I don't agree. There are specific forums for Prince- Music: Prince, NPGMusic Club, Concerts etc. Why limit discussion of other topics?

Perhaps you could add another forum- "General Discussion- Prince." That way, those who only want to discuss Prince can do so easily and avoid the other forums.

it's fine the way it is now, imo.

i think the ORGgods have done a fine job creating our universe

i like it the way it is ben!!!
--- how many tymes do i have to post it 4 my vote 2 count??

Yes put Prince News Only on front page

I think the org is fine the way it is.

Dont fuck with it I say. Ben, please dont listen to the non contributers.

So that's where everyone is.

That was my suggestion when the 'thread limit' discussion was in its heyday.

I don't think this is about limiting discussion, just fine-tuning what the org is about. Do you highlight Prince on the home page, since he's supposedly the reason for the website, or do you draw attention to everything else? I think a 'click to see most active/new topics' option is not a bad idea, instead of trying to separate the threads. The folder, link, or whatever, will still be on the home page.

I don't care ,as the form.
I like it the way it is ,i like the content.
At least don't shrink this org. to only Prince related threads,put them upfont.

I do not agree either. This is a nice site as it is Ben. So we do argue and curse each other out. But in the end we all have one thing in common, PRINCE, otherwise we would not be in here P.org. As far as it goes to prince he should not have first page "interest". He has his own NPG club website. If we need to know what is going on we can go there plus they never update us and tell us "whats new" it is always old stuff. The way you have it set up is Perfect. Maybe just switch the topics instead of general public put Prince interest "music" first and general public second. You should go by the majority of how many people visit what interest site first and we all see it is General public interest. It is fun. Dont think of this site as just Prince but FUN! You have a funny P.org. going on here.

I agree.

I tend to enjoy the non-Prince threads the most. Especially for a lot of the newer Prince fans/org members - I think it's intimidating to only have the Prince posts pop up on the first page. For months I lurked, and stayed close to the non-Prince topics, because I felt I got to know the other orgers through those. 80% of the Prince related threads go over my head, anyway.

Please keep it the way it is. Or maybe separate the categories into 2 - Prince related and non Prince related, so people can have their cake and eat it too.

I would like to see a 'General Prince Discussion' and a separate 'Off Topic' discussion.

i agree as well... General Discussion is 4 General Discussion & then we have Other topics. if everything stays the way it is it's cool.

everything should have it's own Page...

but we need Better Moderation of things that r just Plain Nasty. Kill Prince threads r 1 of em...

otherwise The Org is the Only site i visit.... Daily

Good idea...but people are always posting threads in the wrong forum.

I have been fighting for an "Off-Topic" Forum since day one...But nooo...everybody crapped on me saying it was a stupid idea...

to all those that prefer discussing non-prince related stuff over prince prince prince 24/7, trust me...Off Topic forums are always more enjoyable than General Discussion..


That way, you also get to avoid the obsessive freaks who live, breath and dream Prince...*yuck*

Its fine like it is..

Quit being lazy.. its just one click of a button..
