    Welcome to a "new" Forum for "old" films

    With the Tamil Film board growing continuously, its about time that such discussions are split. Thus the creation of this new forum for exclusive dicussions on Old Tamil films.

    What are "old"? You decide!

    Let the memories begin!

    NOV,

    I feel sorry that there has been a division among Tamil films threads and I feel pushing these into a seperate section is not right. This indirectly implies that Tamil films released earlier and especially NT threads doesn't deserve a place in the main Tamil films section.

    I am not entitled to talk about others but my spending time here itself is to introduce NT and his films to the younger generations, who might not have the chance to know about these things and I am sure you would agree that it became the most popular thread. But pushing these into a seperate section (and naming it as retro), I feel we are shutting the door on them. The newcomers especially youngsters will simply bypass this section.

    What made the Mods to decide on such a course of action, I don't know but it hurts.

    ஆனால் எல்லா சோதனைகளையும் வென்ற நடிகர் திலகம் இதிலும் வெல்வார்.

    Regards

    Totally agree with Murali-sar. But I notice, NT's thread is still in the other section, but still with Retro link on the top

    Can't echo this more! If the Tamil section is getting overly crowded, deleting "unnecessary" or "irrelevant" threads is a much better option, than splitting the threads based on chronology! We do have a ton of threads/posts that are not of any value, right?

    Rakesh, Raghavender Sir, Bay and Plum,

    Thanks for your support. But NOV is promising that this will not diminish the importance but rather enhance it. The ideas he had put forth sounds interesting.

    Let us give a fair trial before deciding.

    Regards

    Murali-sar, we shall wait and see.

    But I definitely would like Sathanai Sigaram thread to be in the other section as well. That will be in sync with your point of attracting younger or new fans. Plus its easy for fans like me to make a quick reference without having to leave that section. Up to NOV now.
