We'll try this for a week or so, and if it works and everyone's happy, we'll keep it! Post ALL purchases in here, not in the individual threads. _________________

I'm not happy . I'll post here anyway because I love you Zad. Actually, this is barely metal, but Blue Lambency Downward finally arrived today! |

Zad, no offense or anything, but I don't feel this thread is really necessary.
If anybody wants to post about their latest metal purchase(s), they should just post in the respective "Recent Purchases" sticky corresponding to whichever genre their purchase(s) was/were in. An all-purpose "Recent Purchases" thread seems kind of pointless, and it would probably just get too big eventually. May be I'm missing something here (were you getting a lot of complaints about all these "Recent Purchases" threads?), but right now, I really see no need.
What we should REALLY have IMO is a "Recent Purchases" thread for genres that wouldn't even fit into the "Borderline genres" forum. Such as if somebody purchased "Buddy Holly's Greatest Hits" or "The Best Of Mozart." |

I think we don't need a metal and non-metal purchases thread... Lets post all in one thread !  |

Well, why not put them all together? You can say the exact opposite - all the individual threads are pointless!
As for the second point: hello? _________________ |

Would the other threads be locked, then?

Oops. I can't believe I forgot all about that thread and failed to notice it on the front page. Blame the busy day I had yesterday.  |

Come on, I had to have the other threads locked in order to herd you lot into this thread. After all: a wise ruler knows when a helping push is needed, as the man said. _________________ |

| You haven't answer my post Zad... What about a SINGLE "recent purchases" thread, regardless of genres ? |

If the American people aren't ready for a black President, then the MR forum shure as shit ain't ready for a single Recent Purchases thread.
Seriously, maybe I'll combine them after a while. _________________ |

I just now saw that they were locked. Odd how Metalreviews doesn't have a seperate icon for locked Stickies.  |

| Just make a Music Purchases thread and sticky it in here. Ax the rest. Seems easy enough. |
