I love the sub-forum Ralph; thank you and Lowell for your consideration and follow through.
Not trying to play tit for tat, and just so I'm clear: is this for the DRATS lineup only: Diana, Mary, and Cindy? Or should all Supremes threads [[and lineups) be included as well? I only ask because when I think of DRATS, I don't think of the Florence years.
Might as well ask: should all individual Supremes topics be posted there as well? Diana topics, Mary topics, etc.
I'm not trying to be ignorant, just wanting to be sure.
Thank you sir!
Anything about the Supremes, Former Supremes [[Diane, Mary, Flo, Jean etc) should go to the new sub-forum.Quote:

Why does there have to be chaos on the Supremes thread.?
I think there is ONE individual who doesn't like this new section because he wants all of the DRATS threads to be front and center of SDF. You'll find his constant protesting in other non-DRATS threads. That individual has shown himself to be one of the problems.
I have that individual on ignore, but I peeked to see if my suspicions were correct, and they were.
I think you'll see a change in this. Non-DRATS threads are already seeing an uptick in activity as of this morning. I think that if you are a huge DRATS fan, your perspective may be skewed or biased.Quote:

Here's a question - what about the duets? lol is TCB a motown thread or a DRATS thread? what about Mag 7? hehehehe If this area is to be EXCLUSIVELY for supremes then we can't really infect it with discussion of other motown artists ;)
Posters could always use commonsense....
OMG LOL. I'm glad I wasn't drinking coffee when I read that... I'd now have a Mocha iMac. Thanks for the laugh, Snakepit.Quote:

Unfortunately, I think the polluters will still pollute. Makes no matter where the segregation is. They want to hate; they'll hate.
But they won't pollute Motown and SD forums whilst carrying on with the foolishness.
I do think you are correct on this.Quote:

Can I make a quick post to say how much I hate the word DRATS? It looks and sounds awful. LOL
Drats, Tom.Quote:

Just one other point, I'm not sure that the DRATS sub-forum is an appropriate place to discuss Supremes & 4 Tops' duets.
ewwwww thanxalQuote:

Or, "THE SUPREMES - AND THEIR INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS" It will include all the Supremes and guarantee that the Diana/Mary bashing will be posted here and not in the main forumn, where there were so many complaints that it took away from members posting about other Motown artists.Quote:

Until, marv2...highjacks every topic and makes it a "supremes" forumQuote:

Well ANYWAYS, I'm glad this sub-forum was created. It was needed. For YEARS.
Looks to me that the complaints about Marv/Marv2 no longer have any validity, if they ever did. There's nothing to complain about anymore. The DRATS fans are free to post all they want about Ross and whomever without criticism or taunting.
