With all of the recent changes and new forums on the Motherboards, i thought it wise to start a whole new topic about HOW and WHERE to post your events and shows. The Motherboards are a powerful and free source of information about a wealth of nightclub and entertainment possibilities, and used properly they can help get the word out about your pet project to a passionate audience. Most posters are very respectful of our rules, and we hope you will take a moment to read them here.

GUIDELINES FOR POSTING EVENTS:

- ONE topic per regular weekly or monthly events. Please use a descriptive title and update new information IN THAT TOPIC. This encourages discussion of your event, which in turn makes people more interested in it. It also saves valuable space on our topic list page. Every time you or someone else posts in your topic, it gets bumped to the beginning of the list.

- We forbid all-capitals titles - please use capitals for your important phrases only.

- Keep titles short and targeted - DO NOT use silly phrases like "Best Party in New York" or rows of exclamation points in your title. Titles that take up more than two lines on the topic list will be edited by moderators.

- You are welcome to link to external sites, and add pictures that you are hosting or otherwise have permission to hotlink to. If you would like to upload pictures directly to our server, or start a photo album about your event, you must purchase a Board Membership ($30 a year). Please visit our Board Membership page for details.

- Placement of affiliate links, spyware or sponsored links in a post will be deleted immediately, as will posts offering illegal services or items that violate our Terms of Service (please read).

Following a warning, violation of the above rules will result in your username being suspended or terminated, and in extreme cases, you will be banned by IP.


WHERE TO POST:

We welcome event listings, discussions etc. in the following forums:

NYC NIGHTCLUBS AND EVENTS (You are Here!)

Post all New York City and surrounding areas nightclub events, news, readings, shows, etc.

ELSEWHERE

Post all nightclub events, news, readings, shows, etc anywhere BUT New York here.

NYC DRAG CLUBS AND RESOURCES (QMTV FORUMS)

Post all New York City and surrounding nightclub events, readings, shows, etc. that are of interest to Queenmother.tv's audience of drag, transgendered, transvestite or crossdressed readers. You can post events that are already listed in our NYC NIGHTCLUBS AND EVENTS forum, as long as they are specifically for this audience - some readers come directly from the QMTV website to the QMTV Forums and do not visit the other parts of the Motherboards.

READINGS

Spoken word and other readings can also be posted in our new WORDS AND WRITERS Forum.

We hope these rules help clarify things for you and for the good of our thousands of visitors. Confused? We welcome any questions here.

Hey lovely folks-

Please note that all WMC (Winter Music Conference) posts should be made in our Elsewhere forum.
Last time I looked, Miami was ELSEWHERE!

To ELSEWHERE Forum

I have been doing some pruning of old posts as our storage is maxed out on the server, and Ive noticed a few repeat offenders who start duplicate topics on their weekly parties consistently. If you can't be bothered to read or abide by the few rules here, I will be happy to suspend your posting privileges.

This isn't ClubPlanet..show some respect.

Duplicate topic spammers in this forum - since several of you continue on blithely to post your duplicate topics, just letting you know that you are now being moderated.

In other words, your new topics wont go live till a moderator approves them. If this is a new topic about a regularly occuring night, it wont be approved. Please take your lack of respect elsewhere.

For the hundreds of posters who manage to keep us alerted to their doings without starting endless topics in the process, this doesn't apply to you. Carry on!

To the moron who just posted 35 NYE topics, hope you are happy, cause now ALL new topics in this forum will be moderated till further notice.

So, to all of our members and friends who DONT abuse the system, our apologies. Please post your new topic and Mods will be checking and approving suitable topics before they go live.

To spammers, we find your tactics tired - as are most of the parties you attempt to post.

Happy Halloween, y'all, and sorry for the drama..

DEATH TO

Okay, we are open to new topics again, but they will be closely monitored. Thanks for your patience..

ANOTHER IDEA FOR MAXIMUM EXPOSURE:

Several venues and promotors have already chosen to advertise on our Google Adwords for this forum. If you would like major saturation of your club or event for a few hours, one night, a week, or just a set amount of clickthroughs (even $20 worth), check out one of our ADVERTISE ON THIS SITE links.

If you are on a forum displaying that link in the upper left column, that means you can take out a text ad on that page. Like all Google Adwords, you most commonly pay ONLY when your link is clicked.

If you'd like to know more, visit our
ADVERTISE ON THIS SITE page or the AD PAGE on Motherboardsnyc.com

If you have questions, write at the support addy mboards AT jackiefactory.com and someone will answer you within 24 hours. Or just post them in the Google Adwords topic on Mouth of the Motherboards.

Newbies please note:

All WMC events should be posted in Elsewhere.

Last time I looked, Miami was NOT in NYC.

Here is the WMC '08 topic.
