Can we ditch local events? - Honda Prelude Forum

Only Northeast is really "active" and its sort of silly to have a regional AND an events section when the regional is just being used for events.

I mean, do we REALLY have enough local events that the events section would move that quickly? There's been ~5 posts in the last 30 days in hte midatlantic section.

Everything was just purged from the last 15 days from numerous forums so it may appear to be inactive.

haha, trust me, its THAT inactive. What's the point? Whats served by having both a local and a general events forum?

Not sure. Members wanted regional forums but I guess they didn't go that well, heh.

Topic will be discussed.

I brought this up a while ago. Why have two places for events. Then we ahve to double post everytime we have a meet.

But my suggestion is to kill Meetings and Events so everyone must go to the regional forums.

Maybe with VBulletin 3 and the floating forums feature you can make it so it shows a shortcut to the regional forum of your choice instead of having to drill down through the list link.

yeah i dont think the regional gets used as much as it should...which is too bad, but you can't make people use something

and it seems like there is more discussion of meets in the regional sections

See, I'd say ditch the regionals because I don't want to have to browse a bunch of topics. I live in northern maryland, so I could go to Northeast or Midatlantic stuff. So at this point I'm checking 3 forums.

Why segregate it? there just aren't THAT many events. its over-organization.
