Have you guys ever considered having regional or state sections on the website where people could ask for local wrenching help, set up meetings, etc? Just a thought...

Here's my take on regional forums and why I haven't created any on this site.
1. With regional forums I think people would get confused as to where to post questions; either the main forums or the regional one? I think questions would get scattered throughout the forums, which lowers the possibility of getting answers.
2. Club forums seem like a better way to handle regional stuff. I really like the concept of local clubs and I've always been hesitant to try to take their place with this site.
Now with that being said, I do realize that not all local clubs have the ability or resources to have their own web forums. One idea I've tossed around in the past is letting local clubs create their own sub-forums here. They could be private or public depending on how the club wanted to handle it. They could have their own moderators that handled admin duties for that specific club forum only.
It's just a thought. I'd be interested in hearing opinions on it.

One thing here in the NW is that there isnt a club and there is a pretty negative sentiment towards them as they have had issues in the past (kinda like a church split). Anyways, most of the locals get their info on M&G's and stuff here or on BFix but neither is really regional and CB is too big to make local stuff visible enough and BFix is well...Bfix, seen way too many get rubbed the wrong way over there. Even if there was a spot to access local calendars, etc that would be good too. I wouldnt really need anything more than just a spot to post local happenings that was easy for a visitor to access. I have nwbroncos.com but honestly it is a PIA to keep up and with pics, etc, it costs a lot for the bandwidth so it really doesnt get used.
