Should We Start A New Subsection For The Regions?

[Blitz]

It is not SAU's responsibility to provide seperate suburban sub-forums.

If some of you guys that live in the same suburb etc want to chat, find another medium on which to do it.

We have the NSW section, we have the Whore thread, and we have the NSW events section.

There is NO need for any further sub-forums

hey i've got a great idea

lets divide SAU up into 50 different parts so no one socialises with others other than their own

maybe my sort of people should make out own site even

something like http://www.skylinesnsw.com/

oh wait that happened before........ last time people felt unfairly treated ripping SAU NSW apart and its only recently that NSW came together as a whole since

and now you want to divide it again

for shame people

keep SAU NSW general for all to enjoy for christ sake

and xizor calm down fella, you've been here for how many minutes and all of a sudden you wanna call us all whingers and nazis on a powertrip.. settle

The SAU Queensland thread has a clasifed section with there events up the top, if we made a local there, it woudlnt' dived the NSW section up, it would let ppl talk in there local sections then just go in the main NSW section to talk to everyone. It's like events we all go there and read, then come back to this section, it'll be the same if we add a local sub.

What a pack of whingers! Dont you have anything better to do than bitch about threads that dont concern you? I find the ctown thread very usefull so i can talk to other local members. Not everyone uses msn, not everyone can use other things during working hours.

The whorethread is ridiculous and impossible to keep up with unless you have no life but so what thats there for people to enjoy and do what they want. You go into it, expect whats there. We have a few area based threads which are constructive and allow local members to easily coordinate with each other and we are ridiculed for doing so. How antisocial is that! Contemplating this sort of censorship is a complete contradiction of what SAU is in my opinion.

Yes sir Mr 2005.

Your a hypocrit, you want your area-specific sub-forums so you and your local crew can 'banter' and you are calling the opposition to the idea, 'antisocial'? Give me a break.

There is absolutely NO need for the sub forum, if you and your buddies want to chat, then mingle and interact with the others in the whore thread, and if you want to organise events, utilise the NSW EVENTS SECTION.

If this still isnt enough for you, feel free to use IRC/MSN/Yahoo/Lavalife/Hotornot.com or whatever other chat medium floats your boat.

Do you guys not know the meaning of e-ghetto or e-slum? It makes the NSW section "unfriendly" because you feel you can't go in and post without some wise-ass saying "oh you're not supposed to be in here; you're not from [insert suburb name]"

[d00dz]

wh0retown FTW!

That is all

[Michael_1882]

Yeah whore towns pretty irrelevent to orgainse stuff thought, i like chatting in there from time to time becuase theres allways ppl on, but when your out on a limb from away from sydney it's not really relevent to organise things there. I mean you can't start a thread ever week in teh events section to see who's turning up to the local meeting place? And we did post there then ppl woudl talk in that thread tehre about the cruise, about the following week, and then we will be back where we started with minni whoretowns, i feel the sub forum woudl be a graet idea, and don't feel it will divide the community up.

[Xizor]

Well what some people are saying is exactly that. With whats being said its coming off like we dont participate in the forums except for that 1 thread, and that could not be further from the truth. We are not segregating away from the SAU community at all. Thats so left field and not appropriate.

You guys might have the time and finances go drive alot and socialise with people regularly closer in the city but ctown/macarthur region is not like that at all. Far less skyline owners over much greater distances. I myself literally live in the bush. As part of the SAU community, and because of it, we are able form a group of ppl with similiar interest and do things. And because we socialise in this manner in one spot when its for that purpose it draws negative attention? Noone is being hurt by these actions, a handfull of threads does not entail a massive mess let alone bandwidth costs, and its enhanced our interest and ability to socialise within SAU.

But yeah ok. Ban the threads.

[Xizor]

Blitz i never said i want the forum split off into sub sections and what not. I just want our thread left open, so there is no need to go all guerilla with the false statements.

Thats exactly what you are asking for in allowing sub-forums for certainly suburbs.

Re-read your own comments, I have not made any false statements, simply replied to yours.

No its not Blitz, clearly you need to re-read or clarify what it is you dont like the concept of. I have not said anything about wanting sub-forums, i didnt start this thread or poll, so there is no need to insinuate im arguing for a further layer in forum structure when thats not the case.

Everything i have said is in reference to a handfull of threads that could be very easily organised into regions. Campbelltown/Macarthur is a region, from liverpool to Picton and all around. I said nothing about sub forums, i'd just like the threads. Its not like the NSW forum is that busy anyway, the posts currently go back 2 days on the default page layout, so it wouldnt hurt anyone. And quite frankly if SAU looked favourably on people casually socialising under the SAU banner there would not be a problem with a handfull of threads that promoted this activity. Its hardly classified as "Event" activity and im sure would cop shit for the ctown thread being in that forum anyway.

I have only been in the whore thread a bit but it is completely insane, and the people there seem to know each other and live around the hills region. Except that thread goes under a different title and doesnt seem to give 2 hoots about meet ups and socialising... yet the powers that be want to crack down on the others? Come on.
