Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
It makes me a little sad to see that people on the Bonnaroo message boards feel unwelcomed. I don't really understand. I feel like people here are so nice and helpful. Also, I surely don't have a very high postcount and I don't feel like people are disclaiming my opinions.
"I agree after reading other peoples post on there i noticed if you make a comment and do not have a considerable amount of posts people that have been on there for awhile automatically try to disclaim what you have to say." (From Bonnaroo Message Boards)
Anyway, I just want everyone to feel welcome because inforoo rocks!

Some people who were new here were greeted with skepticism about their sincerity. Some of them may have deserved it but I think they should probably have been given the benefit of the doubt until they had a chance to get used to the board, they may have been used to boards that are a little more antagonistic than Inforoo and just needed a chance to absorb the vibe. On the other hand, they may have been lurking forever and deserved that treatment. ???

I've noticed some of those doubting posts, so I can see why select individuals may have felt unwelcomed. It is a bit harsh to pretty much say someone is full of it because they haven't reached a certain post threshold. That being said, I personally have found this to be one of the friendlier boards with far, far less flaming than other boards.
Also, the official Board is a nightmare to navigate. You can't even read the full post titles! I'm sticking with Inforoo.
I wonder how interactive they really are. I've been uploading my audio interviews to the site. Figured people may be interested in a little aural stimulation!

I'm kind of interested in learning what you do MoeTrain. All those interviews, and well, I really don't know what you do besides that, but I guess I'm just curious as to what you do for a living and how a 26-yr old man like me with no experience could get into something like those artists interviews or even the business side of the music industry or the journalism side. I know this isn't the correct thread, but anyone with any input would be greatly appreciated
Brokenlight, there are a ton of behind the scenes stuff that the cast involves. If you (or anyone) has any questions, you can always IM me on AIM. I was discussing some of the media stuff in the "Photo passes" thread.
BTW, has anyone signed into the Bonnaroo site and gotten other people's profiles that pop up as your own? It's happened to me about 5 times.
The site's messed up. I could post my audio and stuff, but I've only been able to post one blog. It acts like it's uploading it, then goes back to the screen with blank forms.

Clarity said she got some other's user info when she logged in.
I've never been able to find how to upload a userpic or add keywords or anything. Generally, I'm pretty savvy with this stuff and dont mind just clicking till I figure it out.

I don't discredit people because of their low post counts (mine was low once too), I discredit people because they make lame posts.
I mean, I think I have a right to be skeptical when someone comes in and on their first post is like, "My best friend's mother's sister's brother's dog said that the reincarnated Jimi Hendrix will play Bonnaroo."
I mean honestly, a lot of these rumors aren't true and are just people trying to get attention. If it's your first post and it isn't some ridiculous thing...even if it's like "OMG I LIKE VAN HALEN" in the Van Halen thread or something...I'm not going to discount what you have to say. I like most everybody, I just have a low threshold for stupid people.
I'm sorry that some people feel that way about inforoo. If they stuck around, they would know it's not true. Apparently I keep getting smited...they can keep smiting me, whatever. They're lame anyway.
