Spins Community to Close after 10 Years?!?

Is SPINS truly to be closed after all these long years?!?!

Is Adam serious on this one???

It ain’t exactly nowhere near April Fool’s Day, so that’s out of the question.

Nevertheless, considering all the shit-talking and wrangling that’s taken place in his mysterious hiatus/absence, I can see why he might be a little tainted, particularly if he’s been mad busy in his personal/professional life.

Honestly though, it would be tragic to lose such an infinitely valuable resource to the North Carolina EDM community, even if it is just small potatoes balanced against the overall scheme of things. I have been actively involved in Spins since its inception, so I am confident that such a loss would hurt the already severely injured EDM scene in NC, even if it is but a simple website/forum.

Jonna, you down for assuming Admin rights?

I’m not too good yet with MySQL databases, CSS and the like, so I’m really not sure what help I would be in completely administering the site, at least for now. I have a basic understanding of it all, but not enough to take on such a gorilla of a project so soon. I certainly can help with expenses, if need be to further facilitate such a transfer and migration, yet it may still be too early to know what precisely his motivations are.

Any ideas/suggestions/thoughts……ANYONE?

    They switch admin of the site alot. People can only handle the drama for so long before they wanna pass the torch.

    Hope it works out. I liked that place. 🙂

    I am if that’s what it takes. I’m good with SQL, not great but I can get around and take care of business. CSS is new to me.

    I think if there are a few of us to take on the project we could do it.

    The shit talking comes because he’s neglected it, regardless of the reasons. And that’s what happens to sites when neglected, they go to shit.

    I’m down, just let me know!

      Something is really weird about all this.

      Too strange to understand IMO.
