1. I think John McVie should buy the Ledge.


2. If/when the Ledge falls under new ownership, I would love to see Better smiley-faces as a new feature.


3. The Ledge should do away with the crappy smiley-faces completely.



I'd also like to see Actual comments from Stevie as a new feature. As a matter of fact, I'm expecting to see that immediately after she answers her next set of "Ask Stevie" questions on Nicksfix and finishes her Iliad-like "Three Birds of Rhiannon" poem/movie.

2. If/when the Ledge falls under new ownership, I would love to see a more comprehensive "ignore" feature that basically erases the existence of certain posters from your Ledge (i don't even want to see that they have posted :mad: ) as a new feature.


3. The Ledge should do away with :sorry: completely and replace it with http://planetsmilies.net/angry-smiley-181.gif.

He had his chance, actually. A proposal to sell was taken to Stubner or one of the managers, & Stub turned it down. But based on what I saw over at www.mickfleetwood.com, I was always rather glad about that.

3. The Ledge should do away with members who haven't logged in for 2 years (or less?)completely.

Welcome back, David. I missed you.:wavey:

Kelly 08-05-2007 09:23 PM

I think ??? should buy the Ledge.

If/ when the Ledge falls under new ownership, I would love to see a Photo/Download forum. It also wouldn't be a bad idea to actually enforce the board rules or just get rid of the FAQ section. To enforce the "rules" selectively is crap. So, follow through equally or ditch them entirely.

The new owners should encourage more people to support the board. If you are posting several dozen times a day and have strong opinions about how the board should be run, you should cough up some $ to help out. :shrug:

Are you seriously thinking about purchasing it?

Miss Vicky 08-06-2007 09:18 AM

I'm only going to answer the first question, because I don't really have an answer for the others.

I think a group of active Ledgies - each with their interests focused on different eras of the band - should buy the Penguin (and with it, of course, the Ledge). This way they could split up the time and cost of purchasing, updating, and maintaining the site and the variety of interests would help to prevent certain areas of the site (like solo discographies and such) from being neglected.

I think the idea of selling to Warner Brothers or any member of the band is foolish. The best sites are always the ones owned and operated by fans, and we've seen how great fansites become not-so-great once becoming "official." I'd hate to see The Penguin suffer the same fate.

I do agree with this, only thing is I don't know how much the discog would cost on it's own (since that's the part I'd be interested in buying) but that aside, I only know how to do the data entry in to the discog database, I don't know any of the tech stuff so that's where I get stuck, even if I could afford just the discog (& I don't know that I can).

I completely agree on this! Since I am interested in all 16 FM members, I certainly wouldn't neglect any of them if I could get back in to do more data entry, I just wanted to get all the older entries caught up before adding new ones so I could keep track of which ones were done and then what needed to be added "from scratch to finsihed" but since I haven't been able to get in to the discog for 2 months now, I can't even do that, so here's hoping something gets ironed out soon in some way.

Couldn't agree more with this! Here's hoping The PENGUIN stays unofficial. :)

Marty,
PM me. How much do you want for The Ledge?

~brandon~

Sugar 08-06-2007 09:19 PM

1. I think someone who actually refers to "The Penguin" being for sale should buy the Ledge. (Nothin' personal.)


2. If/when the Ledge falls under new ownership, I would love to see Ledgie of the month as a new feature!


3. The Ledge should do away with free memberships completely.

oh you know good and well that most people refer to this as "The Ledge" and mean "The Penguin" - and most just do that out of habit, not to infer that the rest of "The Penguin" is of less important. don't you think?

No. Not really. :lol:

Not to mean I don't think you value The Penguin, because I think you do. But, no, I don't know that at all. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Perhaps I'm just cynical. I could be wrong. It's happened...:cool:

I'd like to think that most people around here would know what I was talking about. I know that The Penguin encompasses much more then the Ledge, but since this is obviously the most active feature of the Penguin I figured I would just keep it Ledgie-centric. I can certainly start a "Hey, what would you change about the Blue Letter Archives?" thread if that'll make you feel better.

I think that anyone considering buying the PENGUIN would know what they were getting into. Give us more credit then that.

My mistake. Like I said, it was nothin' personal. It's not like you're required to think anything of The Penguin. Still, I'm glad I'm wrong.

1. I think a Stevie fan should buy the Ledge.


2. If/when the Ledge falls under new ownership, I would love to see rainbows, unicorns, glitter and more of these ---> :blob1: as a new feature.


3. The Ledge should do away with the Christine ledge completely.

#1...there's already nicksfix. part B...we're all Stevie fans here

#2 There's enough of that in cartoons.

#3 WHAT? and why? She's an integral part of Fleetwood Mac. Might as well do away with the Lindsey or Stevie forums then.

You may already know this but you can get spell check by downloading the Google toolbar. It will spell check whatever text box the cursor is in.

Also, #3 is currently your wish come true due to the transition.

Lindsey's management seems much better and maybe they would be interested.

I think his whole post was tongue in cheek.

Well mods are only human. Honestly a lot of enforcement occurs when people bring things to the mods' attention. The sqeaky wheel gets the grease, as they say. Also, mods do try to remain objective but that is very difficult, they're only human. True objectivity is impossible even according to Einstein. Brian thought he could do it better and opened 7w and that imploded. :shrug:

if you want to see The Penguin die within months, let a band member or someone "official" buy it - it will be gone like panties in the night in no time.
