MFC History

This is the MFC history that I wrote for the MIKA birthday present project last year. I have some other things to add to it, so I'm going to keep the thread closed to comments for now. Give me a few hours... JULY 2009 The History of MikaFanClub.com Once upon a time, there was a young man named David Geere, who was a fan of a new pop singer called MIKA. David loved the new singer so much, he started an internet message board about him. And so, on 5 January 2007, MikaFanClub.com was born. Very quickly, both the singer and the message board grew in popularity. By the end of February 2007, the MFC (as it was fondly referred to) had nearly 2000 members posting…

Recently there have been lots of questions about what the mod/admin team actually does - what things we look after in regard to MFC. And that's great! Really, we appreciate the questions. And if anyone has any further questions, let us know -- feel free to post in the "Ask the mod squad" thread so we can keep all the questions together. Keep in mind, however, that as much as we tried to cover everything, MFC is a dynamic community in the online world - things are always changing, often rather quickly, and our responsibilities are not limited to what we've stated here -- we never know when we might be called on to do or handle something we've never done before! What d…

ATTENTION MIKA FANS: Several of you have written to us asking about someone on Facebook or on Instagram pretending to be MIKA. Please know that this is NOT really Mika - he will not contact you privately in this way. Mika is not starting an account for his "best" fans, and he is NOT asking for money for you to join a private fan club. If someone saying that they are Mika contacts you like this, please take a screen shot of the message and send it to us here at Mika Fan Club. Please make your Mika fan friends aware of this, too! Be suspicious and cautious of anyone who asks you for your personal information or, worse, money! Mika Fan Club will not a…

We're trying to determine the whereabouts of all the members of Mika Fan Club, and we need your help! When you register for the MFC, you are now required to include your location, but previously it was not a required field. Many of you long-time members may not have entered your country, or perhaps you added a "fantasy" location, like "In Mika World"... Unfortunately that doesn't help us when we're trying to figure out where all of our members are from! So we're asking you to do two things. 1) Take a minute and look at the poll included with this thread. Tick the box for the country you live in. Check only one box, please, and please just check the country yo…

As we announced several weeks ago, The Mod Team has been thinking that we could use a few more helping hands. So we asked those of you with an interest in volunteering as junior moderators to submit your names. Thanks to everyone who expressed an interest! After long and careful consideration, we have finally decided on some new additions to the Mod/Admin Team. Please join us in welcoming @TinyLove_CJ and @CharlotteL as junior moderators for the Mika Fan Club! We are also in the midst of creating several other new non-moderating positions to help fill out what we're thinking of as an MFC Support Team. We haven't quite finalized the details yet, but stay tuned -…

While we have been enjoying all of Mika's recent concerts/festival appearances, a variety of problematic situations have arisen in the queues and among fans, including some violence, harassment, and bullying. We tried to address these issues in a recent Instagram Live. You can watch it here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf4iBvAgtMA/ The main points to remember from what we discussed are as follows: Violence and bullying/harassment of any kind are not to be tolerated. AT A CONCERT: If you are queuing or are at a gig and feel someone is acting inappropriately, your first course of action is to contact event security. It is their job to ensure that fans are safe at…

As we're approaching our 15 years (!! ) anniversary, we've started to make some changes on the site, to give it a fresh new look. Our goal is to make MFC more intuitive and make it easier to find things, also for newbies who might not be used to a forum structure. For now you may have noticed that we've reduced the number of sections in the "Mika Fan Club Info" part of the forum from 5 to 3. All the threads are still there, but basically we've combined About MFC and Announcements to one, and MFC Help and Suggestions to another section. This is only the beginning and work in progress, stay tuned for more changes, and please don't hesitate to give u…

Hey everybody, I've been told that the way we have our login set now poses a security issue and that we should change it. I wanted to give you a warning before I made the changes. Currently, when you login, you can use either your display name (for me that would "dcdeb") or your email address, plus your password. Apparently allowing the use of display names is the problem. According to the warning issued by our Tech Support people, "display names are public information and malicious users may attempt to login to multiple accounts with common passwords until they find an account for which the passwords work." I've been told that I should change the …

Hey everybody! Just a little warning that we will be running a fairly big upgrade on the site later tonight. I plan to run the upgrade tonight and expect it will take a while, maybe several hours. During that time MFC will be offline, but we will try to keep everyone updated on our social media accounts, on Twitter and Facebook. When you log in tomorrow, you'll find that a number of enhancements have been made. Many of these won't change your daily usage of the forums as we don't do e-commerce here, or they are functions for moderators. But there will be some changes that you might notice: -- Improved search function …

Hi all! Wanted you all to know that we are looking at ways to improve the Mika Fan Club website -- we're 13 years old and we need a makeover! Well, maybe not a HUGE makeover, but we think there are lots of little things we can do to make things better around here. In addition, Invision, which hosts MFC and is the software that the site uses, will be releasing a new version with a number of improvements soon. So you might be noticing some changes to some things -- nothing major, don't worry! For one thing, we've made some tweaks to our home page here: https://www.mikafanclub.com/index.html/ We have a News Blog there now,…

Hi All! Just a note to let you know that we had a software upgrade overnight. Everything seems to have gone smoothly, but if you notice any quirks or things that aren't quite right, please let me or one of the other moderators know! I'll be writing more in a day or two to let you know of any new features you might want to try out, but I haven't learned them all myself yet! As soon as I do, you'll hear more from me! :)

You all have probably seen Mika's recent Facebook post on bullying, but just in case you missed it, here it is: We can't really add anything to that -- obviously, we are so happy that Mika has made such a statement and will do whatever we can to make sure that the Mika Fan Club stays a safe and friendly environment for everyone. This forum is all about fans talking to each other, and we are so lucky that we have the chance to get to know people from literally all over the globe! We all share a common interest -- Mika and his music -- but the friendships and relationships that grow out of that interest can be really rewarding. Just ask anyone who h…

The main purpose of this thread is for World Representatives to raise any issues relating to the role of the World Rep, or to post requests for help and information from other reps. News about new World Representatives can also be posted. However we welcome any comments and suggestions from anyone on the forum (just as long as you don't go too off-topic ) Just to remind everyone, these are the basic duties of a World Rep: * Welcome any new members from your country. * Provide the link to the specific thread for your country, if there is one. * Introduce the new member to other members from your country * Attempt to answer…

So, I have been hearing and reading some things around the 'net -- on Twitter and Facebook and here and there -- and it seems that some people feel that the MIKA Fan Club has become obsolete, or that it's nothing special and that there's no point to it any more. What do you think? In my opinion, it doesn't cost anything to be a member, so why not join? And there are certainly advantages to belonging -- occasional meet & greets with Mika, tickets and other giveaways... And as with anything in life, you get out of it what you put in. Those of us who have been around a while and contribute -- not monetarily, but contribute our time, our trip and g…

Hellooo everybody! So, we're due for another software upgrade -- it won't be a major one, like we had this past spring, but it will bring a number of enhancements, functions that will make the site easier/more fun to use, I hope! Here are a just a few things that are new in Invision Community 4.2! Clubs - Clubs are a brand new way of supporting sub-communities. We might be able to use this function for our International groups. Reactions - Offer more fine-grained sentiments towards content than a simple up/down or 'like'. They are now in common usage on social networks, like on Facebook. …

Hello everybody! Wanted to let you all know that we recently enabled Facebook login here on MikaFanClub.com. This means that you can log in to your MFC account using your Facebook profile. You can link your Facebook account to your MFC account by going into your MFC Account Settings. To do this, look at the upper right corner of your screen, where your little profile picture is. Click on the arrow to get the drop-down menu and select "Account Settings." In the left column, toward the bottom, you'll see the option to link your Facebook account. Super easy! It works great! If you have any questions, please leave them here!

So... SURPRISE! Our software upgrad took place overnight last night! This was a surprise to me, as the last time I spoke to our Tech Support guys they said they wouldn't get to us until the middle of the week. Wish they had warned me, but... oh well, as the saying goes, it is what it is. (I hate that saying, btw!) As you can see, we're still a work in progress -- we don't have everything exactly as it was before... but it's getting there, thanks in large part to mellody (Karin), who took time away from her little ones today to help get things organized here. THANK YOU, KARIN! Things may run slow for a while -- there are so many processes running in the…

Software Upgrade 1 2

Hello MFC! Wanted to give you all a little warning that we're going to be upgrading the site's software soon. We've been running an old version for a while, so it's time! With the upgrade, we expect some changes, both in appearance and in functionality. Initially, we are probably going to lose our current color scheme and our snazzy Mika slideshow that you see on the home page. But don't panic -- we'll get our "look" back as soon as we possibly can, with some improvements. Because we'll be upgrading, we will also have some new options and functions. We should have an improved mobile-friendly version of the site, and we'll also be looking into an MFC app. …
