Re: Local forums idea

Yup, I see it. I think it's a good idea in theory. Worried how it would turn out in practice. We've played host to many reef clubs, most of them don't actually use the forum to discuss, just to advertise for free. So the forum takes up space and eventually they forget to even advertise on it. You don't see them because after they're dead for a while I just pull the forums.

On the issue of forums by state, again I can see the value of that, but don't see setting up 50 new forums here with many states probably not getting used at all.

Maybe one forum with 50 threads, one for each state? Would that accomplish the objective? I think so, but it's late....


Oh- and before Squatch and Cougra jump me, yes, I think including Canadian provinces as well would be a GREAT idea!

I think it would be nice to have the option for clubs and random local information to be posted in one convenient location. Hopefully someone with the power to do so will see this thread.
