Title: NMA Forum Q&A Session Monday 3rd February
Post by: Viv Savage on January 27, 2014, 10:07:01 AM
On Monday 3rd February from 7pm GMT for an hour (or so!), the band will be answering your questions here on the Forum. These can be addressed either to the band as a whole, or to an individual member. The aim is to answer as many as we can and on as wide a range of subjects as you care to ask. The forum Q&A will be moderated by my good self, and questions should be sent anytime from now (27/01/14) until midday on Monday 3rd February to the following address: forumqanda@newmodelarmy.org

We look forward to hearing from you!
Viv Savage

Great stuff !!   :)

Should ask separate questions on separate emails, or to allow more people to get involved, should we ask just one question each?

Ask as many as you want or someone might ask the same question and that gets answered instead. It is also possible that all the questions may not get all answered given time constraints, but the intention is to try and give everyone a fair crack at the whip as it were.

Viv, I was wondering how the session will pan out, will we just need to keep refreshing our browser to see fresh answers as they come in?
Title: Re: NMA Forum Q&A Session Monday 3rd February
Post by: Viv Savage on February 01, 2014, 08:23:02 PM
Well I'm kind of making this all up as I go along, but yes, you will need to refresh your browser (press F5) every so often as the forum doesn't automatically update itself. Thinking I'm going to make a special section on the forum so each question would be a new thread and answers would come as follow up posts on that thread. Well, that's the thinking at the moment, it'll probably change in five minutes time when I think of something better...

Anyway, I've sent my question in... hope there will be others more imaginative than mine!

I resisted the tempatation to put "over analysed" but that's exactly what I was thinking!  ;D

Thanks to the band and Viv for putting that together it was great fun.

My favourite question was  "Which do you prefer Poirot or Midsummer Murders?"

I couldn't be online at the time but have enjoyed reading all the questions and responses after the event, thanks to all involved
(My favourite response, I think it was Justin to 'What keeps you awake at night?' : A: My cats  ;D  Oh, I can relate to that)

Our three are shut downstairs at night so we're not woken by them using the bed as a trampoline at 3am, so sadly slipper throwing is not an option.... ;)

having read through all the questions and the responses from the band, Justin isn't joking when he sings " I need more time..."


However it is great to see so much demand for everything NMA.....long may it last

Post by: 8 on July 03, 2018, 08:47:45 AM
*BUMP*

Where are the questions and answers then?  Were they deleted or something?  Why can't I find such and important NMA related thread... or am I missing something.  It's been seven years that I've been here, missed this.  Is it archived somewhere?  Where?  Would someone, anyone, in the know PLEASE shed some light here, clue me in?   :-[

The whole thing was left on the forum front page as a separate main section for around a year if not longer. It has now long since been taken down.

OMG, Shush!   :'(   NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.   :'(

Why would such an important NMA related topic / session be permanently removed?  Did something go terribly wrong?  This is such incredibly shitty news, to me.   :'(

What the hell?  Why?   Why?  Whhhyyyyyyy?   :'(

F'n hell... why?    :'(
