MusMakers vs Writersco

2005-06-15 [Hedda]: Have you tried the programs on Recording Your Music?

2005-06-15 [Consider me deleted]: No, I haven't... Those will come in handy, I'm sure...

2005-06-18 [Citrus]: I'm a member of Writersco and MusMakers...I was with Writersco first...but I think Musmakers is much more interesting, and I think it's good that it's a smaller community. That way you get to know the people better, instead of it being just a mass of people. Oh, and there are more than 81 members here, because I'm number 93...

2005-06-18 [Citrus]: And numbers have nothing to do with it being a better community. Less is more!

2005-06-18 [Hedda]: [Citrus], that's just wrong! We need at least 1000 members to be an active community.

2005-06-19 [font]: I agree, more members is much better. Less members means less work for the crew which is always bad.

2005-06-19 [Citrus]: [Hedda] and [font]: Well, maybe officially among you importants you need at least 1000 members to be an active community, but I wasn't reffering to that. And do you guys WANT more work? Why would you not like less work? Anyway, you might not agree, but I think with less people we can get to know eachother better. Like, I see the same usernames popping up everywhere, and it's easier to communicate and get opinions. Less is more.

2005-06-19 [djxmonster]: I agree that having less people can be good in the sense that you get to know one another better but with every new person, that's another chance to get your music discovered and to discover new music.

2005-06-19 [font]: Though if you are in a niche and only like a certain thing (especially in writing) if you are only one member in the community that writes or sings in a certain way you would wish to have others like you... this is why more members is better, so that everyone can find people like them.

2005-06-20 [Consider me deleted]: This is a fun debate to read... You have no idea. I vote rather than trying to get more members OR trying to keep the number small, we should just fight about it for a month or so... (HILARIOUS!)

2005-06-24 [Gooseberry]: We need to find all of the Dylan fans in elftown then we will be laughing!

2005-06-27 [Citrus]: [djxmonster]: I agree - that with each new person you can discover new music, but if there are like 2000 new users there's just so much that it's overwhelming. And also, there are so many people that you can't FIND someone interested in the same thing as you. [Consider me deleted]: Not helpful...

2005-06-27 [font]: Actually you can find people interested in the same things as you, if you use the search for member feature. Providing people use it honestly and state their true interets

2005-06-29 [Citrus]: OK, I'm not AGAINST having more members, I just prefer it smaller, because I'm actually getting to know people now, but with less it'll be harder to get to know people AND there'll probably be more of those "hi wanna talk 2 me" messages we get on Elfpack and Cathug. So that's just what I think...

2005-06-29 [True, plain and simple]: Not if you don't invite bad people..

2005-06-30 [Citrus]: Still, how do we know that those people really ARE good?

2005-06-30 [True, plain and simple]: Because you thought you should invite them, instead of someone else? >_>

2005-06-30 [Citrus]: Look. We can invite people, right? If we want more people, then why don't you invite them?

2005-06-30 [True, plain and simple]: I'm planning on it! ;)

2005-07-01 [Citrus]: Planning on it - if you want them so much, why not just do it? It's not very hard!

2005-07-01 [True, plain and simple]: Eh? Because I have to go back to Hong Kong first before I can hand out the invitations. O_o
