Hello everyone. I managed to find the original K-pop forum down the back of the internet. What shall we do - shall I just dump all the old topics into this new one? What about duplicate threads? Should they be added on a case-by-case basis? Let me know what you'd like to happen and I'll get it sorted. Cheers!
Yay! Thank you so much! And the font is back to normal too! Great work! I think just merge all of it together. Any duplicate threads can be merged too. It'll be cool to have a HUGE complete General K-Pop Discussion thread.
Yes, yes I agree. If you could merge them and then merge duplicate threads that would be brilliant. Thank you for finding it!
I have a feeling that if you merge threads then that might be quite confusing - conversations from both threads would be interrupted by each other and so on... I'll have a look and see what works. Any more tips though just let me know.
I don't know how merging works, can't you have the old threat infront of the old thread like that? Like I said, I don't know how the merging works.... EDIT: I agree, try it on one of the small artist topics that don't have many posts. There is only a few artist topics that actually get any use.
Hmmm, you could perhaps try it out on one of the smaller artist threads like BoA or Dal Shabet and see what happens...
Usually, when you merge threads, the posts still appear in chronological order. So it shouldn't be a problem, should it? Unless this forum works differently...
But just in case, as hazzie suggested, let's test it first on small threads in case something goes (horribly) wrong.
Thank you so much Peter! This means so much to us! I suggest that the main K-Pop thread and MORE IMPORTANTLY, the After School thread be merged with the current one.
THANK YOU MR PJ, first of all. Second of all, as Osiris said, merging threads should basically be like pasting the new threads onto the ends of the old ones, though as others have said I have no knowledge of how exactly that works. I'm just so happy to see it all back!!
Also, for when/if the mergers do begin Big Korean Charts Thread --------> Interim K-Charts Thread The Official Popjustice K-Chart thread is something else entirely.
Maybe while we are at it.. how about having these as stickied threads? Up to everyone, just a suggestion (MERGING THREADS <->) STICKY THREADS [OLD]New to K-Pop K-Pop (General Discussion) <-> General K-Pop discussion thread Upcoming K-Pop Releases! <-> Upcoming K-Pop Releases Big Korean Charts Thread <-> Interim K-Charts Thread [NEW]The Official Popjustice K-Chart thread
^ I agree, if it's possible to have that many stickied threads. Oh and just to be absolutely sure things get merged correctly: K-Pop On The Telly <-> K-Telly Big Bang <-> BIG BANG
Too many stickied thread will require more scrolling and look a bit messy altogether so I'm not sure about that.
Yeah I don't think we need to pin any of the charts threads. The New to K-Pop one would be very useful however.
Hey guys, I'll be going on a merging spree over the next couple of days! We'll be merging the threads from the old subforum into the new one. I assume most will be pretty obvious, but if there are any special cases like mentioned above, don't hesitate to let me know!
Yeah now I think about it it would be useless pinning the chart threads, they are usually at the top of the forum anyway!
So that went faster than expected. Enjoy your shiny (or should that be SHINee?! *badum tssj*) newly merged K-Pop subforum everyone!
