I do think you guys need to be given a hard time in lieu of all the pay you get. I for one don't like threads and posts to disappear or be unpinned. Us smaller than Calif groups have a hard time getting our meetings noticed with all the other pinned or post in this BBS. We are just trying to get the newbies and lurkers to attend our events. (god forbid) I do get PM's and email from this BBS from these people who are afraid to post and want to know how, when and where to meet the more vocal BBS'ers. Maybe we should have a new rule that stuff can only be pinned for two weeks before the event.....so late comers have a chance to see it. Your admin loving fellow 914 nut (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) Geoff

Make sure you post your get togethers there. You WA guys think you have it bad, what about our small little Indiana group, you guys look like a behemoth compared to us. We can set up a WA/OR area like the NE guys have if you like.

Group: Members Posts: 13,035 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Seattle, Washington (for now) Member No.: 24 Region Association: Pacific Northwest	Unfortunately, nobody looks at the calendar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) People read the posts and topics! I suppose a separate area might work but I think for the most part no one would read it so it would be a dead area. Who knows until we try it....... I know there are a lot smaller groups out there but I/we have been working hard to get and keep things going here. I really have been giving you admins shit just for fun! no hard feeling here....

Who knows until we try it....... This has been the case on every BBS I have ever been on. More forums/areas is almost always bad. People like me want ONE place to click to and have all the info right there. Not enough energy to click through 5 forums every hour. :finger2:

Aircooled Baby! Group: Members Posts: 13,035 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Seattle, Washington (for now) Member No.: 24 Region Association: Pacific Northwest	Kevin and I are talking about the pinning and unpinning of the NW Breakfast this March 27th. We try to get as much notice out as possible for our little events because our base of 914 owners is small compared to the Cal guys/events. and yes, I get tired of reading all the pinned posts of the Cali breakfasts, BBQ's, sawsall partys etc. I should be for the WCC and related important info. I do get tired of bumping the threads about our little events to the top so newbies,lurkers and others have a chance to view the thread before its lost on page three. This wasn't a big deal last year when a whole page was good for two weeks of posts but not now. Dont know the answer but none of this stuff pisses me off, I just laugh at it and with it. Those who know me know this, I am mostly full of shit! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) No, on PP they just ______ out parts ____ your ____s so that ____was hard to make a ____.

"This Utah shit is HARSH!" Group: Benefactors Posts: 13,602 Joined: 22-February 04 From: SoCal Mountains ... Member No.: 1,696 Region Association: None	Any 914 event should get equal play. I don't give a flip if it's only one car. At least someone trys to put it together and should have the opportunity. Some of the greatest fun I had were the Baja runs. It wasn't a parade of Porsches (actually there was only two "real" Porsches), but they were EFFIN fun. No rules, 7 cars, backroads and no one crashed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (but one did get a ticket (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Aircooled Baby! Group: Members Posts: 13,035 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Seattle, Washington (for now) Member No.: 24 Region Association: Pacific Northwest	My point is Kevin and I do work hard to get these NW events off the ground and we have 4 newbies maybe showing up for this event. For the NW thats incredible!!!! So all this keeping the thread pinned/unpinned and at the top of the BBS works for coverage! Geoff
