I tried to post on there this morning but I had the same problem Lee.

I has the same problem.

Leeg said that he could access the sub-forum OK and that he'd investigate with the higher ups. Maybe its locked for use by just Mods/Admins at the moment.

I'm not a fan of the sub-forms. We seemed to lose a lot of posters on the sports threads when they got moved.

I am not able to post in there either. I have moved a number of threads over. Only Mac and Martin can create these sub-fora. I think a setting needs to be tweaked and have let Martin know.

What's happening with the Music sub forum ?

Er, all of these sub-forums...has there been many requests for them? Heroes Discussion, Off Topic and Villa Memories was a nice 1-2-3 stop service, I didn't think people were fussy about there being other football matters being discussed in the Heroes part (the 0%Villa did the job fine) or there being too many music threads in Off Topic (just skip them if it isn't your cuppa). Ease of navigation trumps all that imo. The re-categorisation is a bit VillaTalk-like but if that's what the moderators/ majority want, fair enough.

There was a recent specific request for the Music sub-forum. There have previously been requests for the Gaming and Other Football ones. The International and Other Football fora are due to be merged. Any other suggestions via PM are more than welcome.

I still can't post on the new music sub-forum.

Per Leeg's post above, can I "specifically request" that the music threads go back into Off-Topic.

Is there no-one who can flip the settings to allow postings?

Won't someone think of the children?

Another here who would rather it remained in Off Topic. Perhaps could have a sub forum for all Luke Haines related threads so Redsox can chat to himself though?

Due to the sub-forum being inaccessible, I'll move the threads back into OT until a final decision is made.

And here.

It felt a bit of a pain to keep going to another section for the 'other games' thread last night.

Or maybe i'm just too old for all these new fangled changes.

Nope, I can't do that.

The separate Music Room was a suggestion from me. I think it wil allow better focus - and this place has such a wide range of tastes I reckon it could be invaluable.

When it becomes available, let's give it a chance and it it doesn't work so be it.

If I'd have known that the suggestion came from our head hippie music expert, I wouldn't have moaned so much  :D

However, its difficult to give it a chance when we can't even use it

Apologies, been under the weather and a lot of grief at work, posting should be okay now.

He didn't seem that small when I had my picture taken with him at his bus stop.
