As there have been two suggestions posted recently I just thought I'd come back with our thinking on them:
Old thread but I'd really like to see a separate 'was it you?' section where we can start new threads for spotted Abarths.
Despite the larger numbers of owners on the road now we simply don't think it’s yet necessary. There would be swages of non-answered, single post threads or threads going off at tangents due to other 'spots'. This means people would have to trawl through multiple pages of threads, opening each one in turn to see if it was them, resulting in many more clicks than the current solution. So for now the current format is going to continue.
Now there are so many owners/members maybe separate regional sections for the forum would a good idea especially for organising local meets etc...
This is certainly something we may have to see happen when we have a much wider membership base, and I mean 7 to 8 times the size, like some of the really big car forums. I think the general target would be approx 15-20 members turning up to the majority of events, in the majority of areas.
The nice thing about having them all together now though is there is no exclusion and people from outside of an area will see a meet and think 'I've got nothing on, why not?' which they may not if it was posted elsewhere. So again, the current format will continue for the foreseeable future.
Of course all suggestions are welcome and will be given proper consideration
