Is DJForums down? Posted on: 27.09.2011 by Halley Wurzer Site hasn't loaded for me in like a week??? | |
| Keli Muennink 11.11.2011 | I hope its not gone. I had a few mods on there I'd like people to see. and don't wana repost em all on here. Even tho this is a good site I miss dj community s. There are so many sub community s. and a good dnb section. I also miss the banter between a few the users like dopple deinfamous n dave the rave |
| Marilee Drinnen 11.11.2011 | Buy it Sigma, then call it Sigmacommunity s and make me a mod. |
| Lina Rawie 10.11.2011 | There's a few ways they could reach out to the members, but they're being apathetic about it as usual. If they want to sell it, I'll buy it. |

| Ferdinand Zubieta 10.11.2011 | I knew there was a djf refuge somewhere other than that weak facebook page...! This is a great site though, love the professionalism and write ups. Mods are welcoming too. Jester.NZ where in NZ are you from? |

I check multiple times a day to see if DJF is back up though, just because it was such a great community. |

Those dudes are getting older, families, full time real jobs etc, and trying to run a significant community as a side project would be crazy tough. Theres only so many hours in the day. |

It was more a feeler to see if there was a feature or something we coul add. The vibe here is the #1 thing we have going for us and changing that wouldn't be a good thing. |

| Latoria Kavulich 08.11.2011 | welcome guys |
| Keli Muennink 08.11.2011 | I just made the jump from djf, i miss you and will love you forever, Hello djtt |
| Clarence Karle 08.11.2011 | I'd like to actually address this post:

Saying this differently, DJTT community s already HAS a great identity and shouldn't really change. What is done is being done well. There isn't a NEED to change. The fact that DJF peeps check in here speaks volumes of the quality of the community s, IMHO. IF, however, DJTT really does want to create a home for DJF peeps, I would suggest making a section in the community that is dedicated to ALL Digital DJing Tools so that new products can be discussed in depth. This would be were the lastest info for Traktor, ITCH, SSL, Torq, Cross, etc. would be discussed. I'd also recommend having a sticky that provides a quick matrix of features for the "top" packages - similar to this site for DVS packages. -KLH |
| Britta Limehouse 08.11.2011 | Seems that there a lot of people missing djf I also miss it and i've been an active user on it for like 3-4 years? since it was our favorite place for djing discussions but was yet really unstable we thought that we could create a new community for both DJs & Producers! So basically what we did is, we combined elements of popular websites, like DJForums, GearSlutz and others, into one website, creating the massive place for DJs & Producers, thus we made a "mashup", creating a community that will host both since they are in the same industry. Just believe of that, DJs being able to learn how to remix and even create their own tracks without having to change to a music production community. Vice versa, producers will be able to let DJs listen to their tracks and give them feedback on how they can improve and probably work together |
| Bertha Fathy 08.11.2011 | DJF and DJTT both have their place. I'm excited to [one day] post on DJF again...If it comes back. And I remember the final banning of DJ Dennis. It was actually after he attacked me in one of the first few threads I started! A++ |
| Osvaldo Newhall 08.11.2011 | I agree with KLH as well. |
| Leonora Synstelien 08.11.2011 | I have been around.... In fact, I have quite a large number of posts there... I witnssed several people getting banned (dennis lolol), and I believe I am very popular in the sale/buy thread.... Obviously the comment I made is under the assumption that DJF will come to a stable period once again.... We all want and NEEED it to be back to normal again! However as you mentioned, others have been inclined to leave DJF... I certainly am not as there is no other community s like DJF imo... however that pass could be n incentive for others to stay or even support the community economically. Let's just hope DJF comes back again!! |
| Dorie Scelzo 08.11.2011 | I'm with KLH |
| Eulah Klemz 09.11.2011 | KLH, I agree completely. my only complaint about DJF is all the down time. |

If you like either one, you're going to be cozy here. If not, DJF was the place to be. Here's the deal with DJF: It is/was a grassroots effort built by car enthusiasts (with tech skills) who wanted to make a community for DJs. DJF was the result. It catered to everyone... and was run as friends would run it: by the seat of their pants. The magic of DJF is/was that it had three "modes" of use: * Newbies - it had everything needed to address all manners of starting * Regulars (Club/Mobile) - it had everything needed to get you from starting to a residency or promoted for mobile work * Humor - The Off-topic area was a hidden gem. When you needed a break from DJing, there were lots of people to crack jokes or troll. Getting back to the quote at the top of this post, the VIP section was a hidden section of the site reserved for those that donated to the site (for VIP membership). While the section has bewbs and offensive humor, the BEST part of it is that there's open access to the Admins. The Admins (founders) have put a TON of work into DJF and it shows. When things go wrong with the site, they hear nonstop how DJF sucks. After awhile, it sounds like their efforts aren't appreciated... and that gets old. I feel for them. There was never a dull moment on DJF. I miss it. -KLH |
