We need a Regional Form~

We need regional forms so people in the same region can setup car meets and hangout together and stuff~

For example, Midwest, East coast, West Coast, etc...

P.S. I don't know where is the right place to post this suggestion...but here it goes~

What is it - "regional form"? Or did you mean "forum"? What prevents you from doing all that right here?

Why would you need that? There are so little people on this as it is, just make a most and the 3-5 people that are in your area will see it and respond accordingly.

there's a whole forum under general Forums, that is dedicated to events and gatherings. having regional rorums will just make more useless forums and clutter the site.

It would depend on the forum construction and style. If you are in a regionally based forum, you would not want a taxonomy based on model/chassis code. Ergo, this is just not a regional forum and the taxonomies of the two types don't merge well.

If MBWorld was a club or group with regional chapters and frequent and diverse events, 2 -3 per month, then a regional section would work.

An example of that type is NASAforums.com, it has classifications based on race series/type i.e, HPDE, Autocross and regional forums i.e., northeast and mid-atlantic which coincide with NASA's organizational regions.
