Hi, I have been a part of this group for a while now (active and passive). As much as I love Rahman's music, and love to be part of the discussions, I always find the forum structure VERY limiting and frustrating.
The biggest issue is that its not thread based. Hence, I have no quick way of seeing which threads have been recently created or responded to. Additionally, a thread that I don't want to track cannot be ignored..as it might have flooded the last 15 posts..and hence polluting the view displayed. Its kind of hard to explain further, but for those of you have used any blog based system, you will agree with me that its far easier to have meaningful discussions in a thread based setting. Now, there is a new system called NEWSVINE. This system allows people to post, read and seed articles. For instance, you can easily SEED a Rahman article to newsvine. And you can even write up posts about Rahman. The commenting system and voting system is JUST AMAZING..and I am sure you will love it. And the way we can create a community is by agreeing a predefined tag (E.g arrfans). One could then keep track of the seeds and posts by going to newsvine.com/arrfans The system is invite only for now, and will soon be public. If anyone's interested, I can send out invites (I have about 20). Note, this is just a suggestion to improve the group discussions, and enable a more functional way of tracking posts. This will improve the involvement to the group as well. Thanks, Ricky Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.
