Can we bring back the Banshees forum? (1 Viewer)

[COB]

New poll for 2022! There has been some discussion of this today, so let's see what we think.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

I'll say yeah why not?

It's probably worth a lil think about Moopy post lockdown. I think we're still in a good place, but we could easily end up with 2017 numbers if we look away.

 

[Iguana]

Yes please.

We are an active sub-community of Moopy.

My fellow Moopers, please do not silence us just because you don't share our interests.

Allow us to have our freedom.

Let us listen to who we want, when we want and post about it free from the shackles of the Real Music forum, where we have to share with sad boys with guitars.

Be on the right side of history.

Vote YES.

In short let's work on getting a new lockdown.

@jivafox @Suedey @AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA @Diddy @Soldi get in here loves.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

Would it be a sub of.... REAL MUSIC?

 

[AGinAg (38)]

Or Divas and Icons?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I vote yes.

Makes it easier to block the Screechers

 

[Iguana]

@ZenGiraffe seeing as you chivalrously voted yes, I volunteer to move topics into the new forum if this passes.

 

[Iguana]

I vote yes.

Makes it easier to block the Screechers

Oh. I RETRACT

 

[Iguana]

Would it be a sub of.... REAL MUSIC?

I'd say a sub-forum of Pop, in the same way that Real Music and Music for Gayers are

 

[Diddy]

STOP THE COUNT

 

[COB]

I vote yes.

Makes it easier to block the Screechers

Hey @ZenGiraffe

Spoiler

 

[COB]

Hey @Suedey, the poll is up there:

 

[GNL]

All of you voting yes need to put your money where your mouth is and stream Becoming All Alone by Regina Spektor.

Thank you.

 

[win_the_game]

Happy for some sort of female alt/singer-songwriter forum.

Are we keeping the Banshee name? It's not very 2022.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

DYKE MUSIC

 

[COB]

LILITH FAIR 2022

 

[win_the_game]

TERF FAVOURITES

 

[win_the_game]

Not trying to start anything - it's not a big issue. If everyone's happy, run with it.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Yes please!!!!!

But I agree with @win_the_game that 'Banshees' is problematic in 2022
Maybe we can call it alt-females?
But that might be a bit TERFY?

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Yes I think gendering it probably causes MORE of a issue!

It could just be "Singer/songwriter icons" (as long as everyone is fine with me deleting any Ed Sheeran threads that dare to be posted in there).

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I am glad this thread is getting traction because I remember I made several requests over the years to bring back the forum and they were ignored.

Well guess what?

This time it's different.

My sisters are with me and we will not be burnt at the stake because of Moopy's patriarchal ways.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

But that's a bit... dare I say vanilla?



Let's think of something from a Tori/PJ/Kate/Aimee/Liz/Sarah etc. album title or lyric?

How about ---

• THE CHOIRGIRL HOTEL
• THE SENSUAL WORLD
• LOST IN SPACE
• LITTLE AMSTERDAM
• A CORNER IN WINSLOW, ARIZONA
• A CORAL ROOM
• ELSEWHERE
• A PLACE CALLED HOME

etc. etc.


Let's be subtle and cryptic and when our fellow Sisters wander into the forum they'll find out more

 

[COB]

How about the Slug Genitalia Coloured Forum?

 

[Cerro de Casa]

(and yes I'm editing more suggestions into my post.)
If moderator says YES (please?) then can we poll up some thread name suggestions

 

[Iguana]

@ZenGiraffe how many votes do we need for action to be taken? Currently Yes has a lead of 12 out of 12 votes

 

[VoR]

Oh Banshees is FINE. Own it. It's not like we're calling it the screaming menstrual witches forum.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

OMG how about UTOPIA

 

[COB]

Don't call it A Coral Room, I don't want to BURST INTO TEARS just scrolling through the list of forums

 

[VoR]

Tori would probably be delighted to call herself a Banshee. She probably reckons she knows a few real ones.

 

[Iguana]

If moderator says YES (please?) then can we poll up some thread name suggestions

Only admin can create new forums so we're in the hands of Indie, Kate and Zen, all renowned banshee fans

 

[VoR]

I will also accept the CRONE FORUM

 

[VoR]

But that might attract confused Madonna fans

 

[Iguana]

Tori would probably be delighted to call herself a Banshee. She probably reckons she knows a few real ones.

And in Violin, Kate screams

GIVE ME THE BANSHEES FOR B.V.s!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

OMG how about Banshees & Faeries

 

[VoR]

OT, just did a Google image search for CRONE and I think we should do this for Moopy Book Club sometime

 

[Cerro de Casa]

The official campaign starts now.

@Administrator

Let it be known that I am officially on hunger strike and will be playing Precious Things live versions on a loop until we get the
BANSHEES FAERIES & CRONES forum live and re-instated




I wanna smash the faces
Of those beautiful boys
Those Christian boys
Those patriarchal Moopy admins that got rid of the Banshees forum
So you can make me cum
That doesn't make you Jesues

 

[ZenGiraffe]

@ZenGiraffe how many votes do we need for action to be taken? Currently Yes has a lead of 12 out of 12 votes

Should yes retain the lead tomorrow morning then I'll do it then.

Please have the name and tagline ready by then. I will also not be moving any threads once created because LIFE'S TOO SHORT
