As I have said... If I clicked on this site tomorrow and it wasn't there I wouldn't miss it. It has become a cesspit of squabbling ego maniacs trying to score points off each other. Nothing to do with Queen anymore, no point starting a new thread or contributing to one because it is just brainless idiots talking shit.
They know who they are but the people who rise to it and give them the bites they are after are just as bad.
Internet rule number 1 = don't feed the trolls.
No point. They come here for full bellies.

and yes - we'd lose a lot of "stuff" - but i'm sure a new broom might be a good thing.

Nicely done !
Can you ban IP addresses with your engine?
And is there a way to set certain IP addresses (i.e. of trolls) to make it appear as if their posts are being seen by everyone, but in reality only they themselves can see their posts? This is a far better alternative to banning trolls, as it will take far longer for them to realize they've been banned.

Is there someone that has a direct contact with Richard, if so, maybe he can convert this forum to a new one, or export a database etc.

I used to speak to him a while ago, but it has been ages. I believe he wasn't well for a long period of time.

Cheers mate. How do I register as a Mod? Or do I register as normal and you amend it?

Can somebody explain me what’s wrong with the QOL forum? I visited a minute ago and it looks different than before.

I've never used the QOL forum. Am I missing much?

I'm on board if this comes about. We just gotta do it properly and for real.

I’ve never been on QOL as a member .I used to take a look one or two times a year. Very likely of us are on QOL as well. People who don’t like QZ could simply join QOL, so why should there be a new forum?

The number one source of most Queen audio & video multimedia and bootleg downloads is Queenzone. This is an important part of the forum. On QOL that just doesn't exist and can't exist since it's an official forum.

the forum can easily ban IP addresses and email addresses too. i'll investigate the option for "visibility" option

if we have a problem with this site being a repository of links...we could ask the posters to repost their links to the new forum.
anyhow, site is open now

Or do a whole lot of copying and pasting. The database at Queenconcerts.com has links to most of them, in lieu of a decent search function here.
Rejoice ! But check your email first - I had a couple further ideas.
