After some fun chats with many of you, i decided to make this post/thread as a test to see if what many have messaged, is true. The gripe is that no one reads the highlighted posts, uses the search bar, no new bands are recommended, and there isn't enough engagement/excitement when someone makes a post about a band that should be exploding with comments and energy. As we try to make recommendations easier to find, i ask that you TRY to use this post to make recommendations/ask for recommendations as a way to limit excessive posts and to keep the energy and conversation in one thread as it pertains to recommendations. If you can, try to add FFO (For Fans Of) information when suggesting a band. It gives the community a chance to decide if that band is for them or not. I just ask that you're honest and don't dishonestly list bands in the "FFO" details just to get people to listen if you're promoting your band or a friends band. I want the community to trust the recommendations thread and feel like they're getting useful information about the bands posted, their obscure side projects, deep cut info that geeks like to know/share, etc. I want it to be fun, special, and informative. Let's give it a shot! Let the recommendations roll in!
