Re: Archives to be deleted...

i am guessing the majority of members do not dl the sets anymore. They are really old sets and all the new ones over the past 3 years are linked here now anyways.

what do u think of removing the post limit and give a 1 month period for everyone to dl what they want and then Kamal removes it.

Can't say i've ever used it tbh. The question says should they be kept or should they go. The choice of answers is yes / no?

How much data is it exactly?

Re: Archives to be deleted...

I would say keep them, but i appreciate the costs in keeping them online.

Is there anyway to outsource them? Pay for a one off account and put them on soundcloud?

Re: Archives to be deleted...

To conserve space on the server and with the hosting ailing, I'm seriously considering deleting the archives (in an effort to consolidate hosting accounts). I know people under 100 posts wont see the archives, those that sign up wont see them, and they wont be motivated enough to post enough to discover them, and the ones that do will probably spend another 3 years hitting 100. These make the archives...unnecessary (at least I feel).

If I get a certain number of positive responses to this thread, I'll keep 'em, if not, I'm gonna delete them.

This is just a thought but seeing we really don't have anything new or exclusive to offer anyone now, why do we still have the 100 point thing. ??? I know it is a turn off for a lot of people and essentially any forum needs active members, of all types You could make the archives a plus rather than deleting. Well actually it is a plus. The DJDB could also be a plus if it were up to date. Although I get most of my bio's from Soundcloud now. Sure you will get people signing up just to view the archives, but some will stick around.

Also, that old "Colours Midnight Mix by Digweed is great"

Re: Archives to be deleted...

Is it hellz yea... keep the archive or hellz yea... get rid of the archive. Too confusing for my small brain. I'd pick keep the archives, anyway. Last few times I tried to get something from it I got 404s so I'm actually very happy that it is up again. Surely you can see how active it is Kamal? Can't it be moved to a cheap data only datacentre or something?

Don't delete anything until someone figures out what the first song on the second Randall jones guest mix is

Keep them. This isn't just about us. We're fighting against a future of noobs and morons who think dubstep is music.
