ok Phill, can you please clarify to members when the changes will be taking place with regards to people choosing extra mb and perhaps only allowed to make 1 or 2 subs a day?...you advised a few weeks ago that all members would be sent an email, and i for one didnt recieve 1....as ive just said in the goodbye thread from menephes...if SS are gonna lose people then its time for changes Phill...i know your very busy, everyone respects how hard and the hours you do put in to make this work for the majority...but i do think the amount of subs per day is playing a major part in people feeling a little neglected and in some ways as much as people hate the word,cliques forming...you comment on my sub i comment on yours kind of thing...surely no-one wants to encourage that...and if people are limited then perhaps the front page will move slower, people stand a better chance at being listened to :-) before anyone jumps on my head and throws petrol bombs at me i once again say yes i know how busy and how hard Phill works and i like many others appreciate all his efforts!

Dont want to upset anyone on this but I would like to hear some response on this (Possible Future Change). I can confirm that I recived an email a short while ago and replyed with views and great interest in dropping the amount of sub uploads.

People we'll have to try something different if it means losing the friends and company that we have made on the site. I really look farward to finishing my work and choirs to get here to the friends I've made.

Lets try something different before its to late.

oh and my question was answered and i requested the last thread to be deleted once i had my answer....ok phil advised that they are working on changes...it does take time ...which is fair enough...sooo hopefully some time soon there may be a little compromise that will i dunno perhaps slow the front page down which will then enable more listeners and comments and hopefully a little peace and calm amongst people :-)

i am happy with the answer i got :-)

I think that Phill has had a very busy day with answering PM's etc with members concerns about everything that has come up recently. It'd kinda be a nice thought to give the man some time to respond as (Keep In Mind) He does this for free! He's the designer for the site, and that is what he gets paid for..not answering questions or dealing with members personal problems...

In addition, i'm sure he's got a real life too lol Karaoke Scene and Singers Showcase is a business..maybe they oughtta put out a "We'll respond within 24-48 hour disclaimer" just to cover their butts if they're busy one day :)

There have been a lot of new change ideas put out on the table...probably a lot to go through and sort out...patience is a virtue lol

JMO :)

Just taken a look Heads. Should of seen it before.
Guess that will do for my response.

Just sorry all the hassle yesterday happened.
And lets hope this will help sort things out and make life a little more fun than it already is here. :)

Thanks Phill

HEADS TOGETHER -

Thank you for pointing that out! :) I don't think people cruise the rest of the forums to see the posts that I make. :(
-----

One thing I would like to note is the minor adjustment that has been made!

Daily Submissions: All paid members are now limited to 2 submissions per day.

This doesn't effect our Plus members who already had only 2 and can have up to 10 submissions @ 4 MB archived.

Changed however are:
Deluxe members can now archive up to 30 (previously 25) submissions @ 5 MB!

Premium members can now archive up to 60 (previously 40) submissions @ 7 MB!

About two weeks ago, I sent out an email polling our Paid members (at the time) requesting their feedback.

----- The results ------
Plus members 99% agreed (Doesn't suprise me, it didn't effect them!) ;)
Deluxe Members - 97% agreed
Premium Members - 98% agreed
--------------------------

Therefore based on the results - it was decided that to enhance the site we would implement the change.

I know some have sent me PMs and emails asking why?

Currently, on the main page (which is going to be changed - along with some other items...) all submissions are displayed. Many times we will see several submissions by the same member in a row. Unfortunately what happens is only one or two of the submissions are actually listened to by the members or visitors. Also, it becomes overwhelming for people to see so many submissions.

After you listen and leave a comment/rank on a song you are sent to the submitters profile (this is done in order to update their profile with the info just submiited.) There you can see all their submissions. You may then select to listen to another of their submissions.

Also, if you click on a members name or do a search for a member you are taken to their profile, where again you see all their submissions.

I have increased the quantity of songs archived thereby being of a greater benefit to the Deluxe & Premium Members!

I hope that helps.

P H I L L

ok i am a paid member so where was mine????

secondly i do browse the rest of the forum...and you had put that thread with very little info or change in my opinion ...that is why i asked where were the changes....you see the problem is the threads got out of control and deleted where members expressed simular views to mine above.

and your probably gonna now say because i am not a delux or super delux paid member just a bog standard one....which in that case i may just argue the point should not all members paid and non paying have a choice and a say?

anyways....at least whatever happens its 2 subs a day which hopefully might ease the amount of subs on the front page and will allow people time to listen and comment.

MissyGG -

I wasn't pointing any fingers at you with my previous post. :)

I was making a general statement...

As far as the deleted posts I believe I sent you a PM on that?

Well, with regards to the changes - Standard members were not sent the email because their status wasn't going to be changed at all. Standard (Free) Members are allowed only 1 submission per day @ 3MB and can archive up to 5 submissions.

BTW - I did send you an email?! It was sent to your msn address on Oct 26th. You may need to check your MSN settings to be certain that you can receive emails from me.

In fact, anyone with an email adress with AOL, MSN, Yahoo, Hotmail, and there maybe others - please check that your emails are not being deleted or placed in a SPAM or Bulk folder. Sometimes, because of the mass amount of emails that are sent through our site, it is mistaken thought to be SPAM.

email addresses that send you email through our system are:
pinball.crosswebtech.com <-- my server
karaoke-forum.com <-- the Karaoke Scene karaoke forums
karaokescene.com <-- Karaoke Scene's main site
singersshowcase.com <-- Singer's Showcase

Thanks,

P H I L L
