Great post whores think alike

Iv aleady IM'd Igor asking about doing this.

I don't get it. What topics would go in there?

Then, how many other regional forums would we need?

[Moppie]

Go here and have a look

I dont really know what we discuss, just stuff that only people form the asia/pasfic know about, like local shows, organising meets etc.

Sounds like a good idea

I actually like the international dialogue at AF, and would prefer that nothing interfere. After all that's what the little flags are for, so you can realize that others are from other parts of the world.

Ironic, it seems, that you two are both flying non-NZ flags for one reason or another... Edit: but not primera man!

Good point.

I think as long as it was only used for the likes of meeting other people from NZ and car events it should be OK.

Which is pretty much all they get used for.
Its saves culttering up OT, and it saves topics about meets etc getting dragged OT. (could you imagine how some members would Hijack threads, look at OT now! )
In a regional forum it could be more controlled.

OT subjects would not happen since the OT forum here rocks.

Mines a political statement about the plight of forgoten people's who have suffered far more than others in the light of recent events.

I have no idea about Dejox though

Well, between your political statement and your "location" in Post Whore Hell, you've defeated AF's efforts at recognizing its international community.

I think the issue with the flags could be the fact that when you select a country from the list it's asking for NATIONALITY, not 'country where you are currently living'.

Hmm, possible downer - it's going to be spreading content over a larger number of forums, which makes reading a bit of a nuisance when you're short on time. Sure it will create some new content, but perhaps not enough to justify a new forum.

True enough. Good call.
