Platinum Prince, thank you for your post btw. It sickens me that alot (but certainly NOT all) pop-kiddos only like the Scream films and others of that era. That's not what horror is 'about' and its certainly not what this forum is geared toward.


Yeah, we dont need 14 year olds who consider 'Final Destination 5' their favorite horror movie, and thinks older horror is 'crap' just cause its older. We need people who like all different kinds of stuff. Older, modern, etc.(Btw, that was just an example. If FD5 is you're fav movie, then thats fine lol.) Im just saying that would be a huge turn off for 99% of real horror fans, and lets face it alot of our generation is like that. Im not talking about anyone on the forum by the way.

I honestly could care less about how popular pop is on this forum. It's normal. It's like that in real life too.

The only thing that really concerns me is the children's tv shows, because at least the Britney GIFs are nice to look at.
This tbh. It also adds some variety to the board. I mean there is more to us as individuals that just being in to horror movies.

I love Lana, and Britney is all that. But, I do tend to listen to The Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, etc more than that type of music. I don't see how this effects us getting new members. I'm sure other fans of horror would like to share their music opinions also.

Omg THANK you.

That's exactly it. This whole... "thing" started because of concern over the popularity of kiddie shows scaring away new members. NOT the music we listen to. Music has nothing to do with the topic.

Yes, Dubsy they would BUT its a borderline fact that if someone strolls onto the forum and sees nothing but a bunch of Childrens TV posts and Pop music stuff in their respective sections, they'll be turned off since well....let's face it, most horror fans don't like kids' shows and pop music, as had been proven by my time spent with close to 200 people in real life who are horror fans. 200 may not seem like much, but its definitely something and the bottom line is that Pop and Kids Shows arent the type of things that draw horror fans in. Horror is. We need more of THAT kind of discussion, even more than we have now.

Except pop music ISNT that overly relevant. You're actually the only one complaining about it.

So can we get back on topic with the problem of kiddie shows please? Which are a problem that lots of people are complaining about.

Why don't we axe the section but leave the threads in General Entertainment?

This is the real, OFFICIAL forum we moved to. No trolls, no drama, plenty of horror discussions.

I think we should attempt to update the blog regularly with different features. It's a lot easier to get repeat customers on a blog if you have a "schedule" of sorts. Perhaps we could all pull together and write up some reviews or thoughts on the genre to post on a consistent basis. It might also be a good idea to cover news stories that interest us, and entice readers to them come to the forum and join in on the discussion on news and reviews. Maybe a movie of the month, which I understand seems pointless as we already talk about movies on a consistent basis, but something where we can all make a joined effort to focus on one movie every month that we can all talk about. Just spit-balling some ideas here but I think strengthening the blog to be the best option as social media is probably the best free option we have. Commenting on imdb works, but most people consider that rude and/or take it as spam.

Has anyone tried posting the link on Comic-Con forums?

Or tvlinks - I.e. in The Walking Dead or American Horror Story threads?

It's not the section that's annoying really, it's that it's more popular then a ton of other sections.
