Now that we are getting quite popular, would it be possible to break out the Regional Info Forum into further sub-forums? I personally would like to see 50 sub-forums, one for each state, but that would be a lot of work managing such a large sub-group. How about breaking it down into say, Northeast, East Central, Southeast, Mid America, Southwest, Northwest, West Central, etc., sort of like most of the other message boards do......

The topics are at the mercy of the folks who create a new topic (which is any registered user). This version of phpBB doesn't provide for subtopics, so although I could create a subtopic for each region, it wouldn't be broken down into smaller topics, ie all the posts would be in "Midwest" or "Central" or whatever. At this point, I am hoping that tghe new version of the BB software comes out soon, but I am not sure that feature will make it in.

Sorry. I'll keep my eye open for a hack, but in the meantime, feel free to generate topics that make sense under regional information, and maybe we all can be a bit more strict with our postings.

Another option is for me to create 4 or 5 regional categories (instead of 1), and then people can create topics by state in that?

If you can drum up support for this on the board, I will go at it.

Nevermind. :smile: I think this makes more sense the more I look at it. I like your idea.

I created the main section, I will try to get the regions in as forums tonight or early tomorrow.

i like what you did mike!
nice job, thanks!
ps: it just occurred to me that you might as well set one up just for Texas Bullittheads. there are way more of them than any other state. i don't believe it would offend me or anyone else to NOT get their own state!
