Should there be a forum for Apolyton Meetings? Tired of ads?

We now have several threads about meetings in planning in the OT, and it would be very helpful if there was a special forum for that. There are such sub-sections at other boards, and those often produce even less meetings than us

Now that all of Europe uses the same currency (except for the UK, but that's just a question of time (yes, I'm just talking about halfway civilised countries)), the will to travel around will increase dramatically, therefore there will also be more meetings.

Vote for a meeting forum now.

I think they should get the existing forums working properly before they think about adding any new ones.

The last thing we need are more forums that nobody reads.

It'll turn out like the Other Games forum, it all gets posted in OT anyway so somebody <em>reads it</em>.

That would make sense...

But what's the problem with keeping them in the OT? They're not exactly flooding the OT with posts, and they'll get more traffic that way. The only advantage to having a seperate forum is post counts, which are absolutely useless.

And I don't exactly see everyone else flying up to Calgary to meet me. I can't afford to fly to England just to be raped by PH or EiF or whatever. I'm a student! Yarr.

I dunno, I hate having all my information spread out amongst several forums. So I am sorry to seem like a traitor, but I would rather stick with the present format.

We do not see a reason for a sub-forum for Apolyton Meetings. I believe that "Apolyton/Community" continues to suffice for this purpose.

Does this mean all future "Meet" threads should/can be posted here and not in the OT?

What's wrong in this forum? It's about the Community, right? I don't know why is it posted in the OT forum, since the subject of discussion is about the community meetings.

DanQ,

please move the OT threads about Apolyton meetings into this sub-forum.

Those threads are:

Dutch Apolyton Meeting 2002
Rich and Stew in Europe crap thing...
Bristol stuff..

you'll recognise them

Sincere Regards,

The meeting attendees, represented by Ecthelion

Nothing wrong with it and it does make sense, but mods have moved those threads out of here into the OT before.

OT is the forum for everything

it is only those that do not want to be disturbed who go elsewhere

as such both community forum and OT is ok for the type of thread mentioned

come on, don't be silly... do you have any proof for that? by this poll you can see there are several opinions, so the thread does serve a purpose... besides, I found it rather odd we have several threads fo rmeetings in the OT, and if you'd have a single look in any other community board, you'd find they all have meeting forums

now stop making Mark think of things that just aren't true. you know he doesn't need proof for acting, so stop accusing

I do not post here for the purpose of post count. I have my title, why would I need any more posts?

Oh yeah, to buffer a PCR

Yeah, perhaps this forum is the best place to put these threads. Perhaps when these meetings are in their later stages we could place another thread here, but at first, it just seemed more appropriate to place them in the OT.

All the proof anyone needs that you are a spammer is in this thread. Funny how you think its such a great idea for meeting threads to be moved to this forum from the OT, after all what does it matter to you whether they have their own forum or they get moved here - as long as they give you a post count right?
