Pretty simple idea, the theory is we get rid of seperate state forums and make it a single NW forum. important threads would all be moved, and condensed. Antoine requested that we post a poll and see what the majority thinks before we make it happen.

One downside isthat any existing links be they form search engines or just saved in ppl's browsers/links on webpages, etc to threads in the current state-forums would be broken. The bonus isthat it keeps the forum hopping to a minumum, the NW mazda scen is pretty sprawled out as-is I figure having it bunched together things'll be easier to keep tabs on for everyone. no more need fo feel gulty double-posting, etc.

Another option might be to attempt to form a NW mazda club of sorts. Antoine informed me that he would gladly host a club forum for us on this site. I feel this might be a cool option, but First it would require a bit more unity which I think could be helped along by first (and soon) cutting down on the need to jump arond to communicate with everyone. My general feeling sithat were we to make a seperate club forum and leave the current state ones active, it would likely go unused, and we would stick to our current comfort zones, but it is another option available to us.

Recent events like our Mt st helens meet have really brought this issue to light. We really are one big group, I don't see a need to have to hop between forums to findout what's goingon All 3 states were represented in front of the volcano, whynot inhere?

I love the idea. However, if it turns into a dick pulling contest (drama and fighting for power), I'm out. I've seen so many online things go that route, that I'm jaded. Ya know!?

lol


Of course, who could keep up with Travis, he's a master at pulling dick.....



hehehe
 
Ha ha Clancy. You only got that cause Ben let you in on the picture post I made awhile back. No sharing inside jokes!!!!
I still say the post was funny though.

Clancy is a bad influence and a chronic (peep) speeder. I vote we kick him out of any club that may or may not be formed.

NW forum

I for one could care less about power, and I think that if that becomes an issue, it should just be nixed. Personally, I really don't necessarily want to be incharge, even with the WA forums, I'm looking after the place mostly because there needs to be a regular in there to keep up on stuff. I'm just wanting to get us a step in the right direction here. As far as appointing grand poobahs, we can take votes or whatever, but for an immediate solution (with something suchas just merging the state forums to start with) I'm sure Ghost can mod things there just as he's been doing inhere, and again, I'll help, but I don't really have lots of spare time lately.


Anyway, appreciate the input guys,
MAKE SURE YOU VOTE!
 
Being stuck way the hell down here in crap-ass OSU city.... with the only thing to do.. ever... is drink... be it a bar.. or house party....

I don't mind a good time with alchies! But... 3+ times a week gets really REALLY old....

My point? Don't have one really... Other than I have to consider each decision or meet... whatever.... against the miles on my car... often.. not worth it =(

EDIT:

THankfully Full day today (saturday) and I didn't touch it! Didn't have to drive one inch!!!!!
 
Hey guys. Nice seeing you all on Friday .Sorry about not really getting anything done besides keepimg the demand for hops going strong.
 
Once again I apologize for not showing up, i ran into some isues that night about a hr before i left. We should go again, and I will buy you all a round on me.
 
woot, is right... Dude I need to call you tonight. I need some parts, and I know you do to. How is your hood doing, is it CF yet so i can buy your stocker....LOL
 
i know there are not many of us, but if we condense all of this we will have probably a good 40 active members or more. I think thats pretty good. So i think the first step to do this whole thing is to select a name.

Now i dont want you guys to get the idea of I am going to chair this thing, because as of now I just do not have time. But I will help get this organized and active. So i think the first thing we need to is select a name. So PM me with names and we will start narrowing it down.

Lets get this thing going. Thanks
 
I think I'm going to merge them into a single Oregon/Washington/Idaho forum for general posting.

If you guys form a legitimate club...I will gladly offer a Main forum for free...Let me know!
 
I was talking with a few in the Idaho area.... used to live in Boise myself. Seems like the state is pretty much dead as far as Import / mazda / car anything goes... I think we had one guy from idaho at St. Helens though didn't we? Crazy things!

Its like 8 Hour drive to boise i think... At least from Bend.. Farther from here...
