Forum suggestion

Not sure if it would work but I was thinking that a new section should be added to the forum "Counties" or something along the lines of that. Have a thread within that forum for each county so it's a little bit easier to find people in and around the area you live to maybe arrange a game with sometime.

Failing that then some kind of directory of forum users that can be sorted by "county".

That sounds like a good idea to me.

I know when I was a member of a car owners forum we had the main directory and then sub-forums for different areas.

So we could have sub-forums within the Arrange a Game section, therefore making it weasier to arrange a game in your area and less likely to miss any that don't get replied to quick enough.

If you are descriptive in the title, that should be plenty. if you start making a sub forum for every county, you are going to need a lot more administration on the forum side of things, I wouldnt bother.

It's not just for arranging games though, sometimes you just want to ask where in certain areas people recommend playing or recommend getting fitted etc, it gets lost quite quickly in "The Lounge". I'd happily mod an Essex sub forum.

We used to have a Google Map that users could add themselves to. I guess it's still around somewhere but I can't find it using the search.

That was the last known map iirc. ~feel free to create a new thread and Ican sticky it on Arrange a game.

A new map and thread have been made, although doesn't achieve what I thought we needed with more localised chat available in sub forums.
