| | | Forum Bar-B-Q There was an IRC channel I was part of a little over a year ago that did something like this and it was pretty fun. Once a year someone from the boards that had a big house and/or property would host the party. Alot of people from the channel would show up from all over the world for this 3 day party.
I'm just so bored atm and was wondering what others thought about starting up this kind of tradition for the forum ? We could all (well not all but some) meet face to face and just have a good time.
What ya think ?

| | | I tried to get a 4 person meeting together. By the time it occured it was just me and Breezy. Such meetings are highly unlikely.

| | I am in an entirely different continent  And so is Lucid ain't he? But I hope to be able to go to the USA to further my education. That'd be in a couple of years though after my military service unless I get a certain scholarship...

| | | Ditto here with the IRC. Mine just chooses not to work. I have java enabled and everything is up to date. I guess my computer and loveforums chat applet just hate each other. Mayhaps they're feuding.

Not a bad idea, just not enough people to implement it. For instance, in order for a decent amount of people to show up (let's say 10), you need to have ten dedicated forum people that live within a certain distance of each other (how far would YOU be willing to drive? fifty? a hundred miles?) and all wanting to do it. I think we may have only a FEW more than ten dedicated people as it is. So what are the chances of those ten people all living within a one hundred mile radius? Practically zilch.
Not a bad idea (I think it'd be neat), but just not doable given the odds.

| | | I had actually thought of this before as well, but didn't want to bring it up until I had some time in to be considered part of the "in" crowd, or "dedicated forum" people as Alexi put it. In the short time I've been here, though, I think there are at least ten..let me name them off the top of my head and see how many I can count:
raverboy
tooshort
jane
squirt
Iron
JSlaughter
Alexi
Blue
Breezy
Billy
Skye
Killer
Niceloverboy
Newer ones (under 4-digit posts, or joined after me)that I think are also dedicated:
GBRaul
Lucid
Me
That's just off the top of my head..who else can you think of..and of these people, how about an availability count.
I for instance, am ready and willing to do this. In fact, I was also going to suggest the one on one thing..if anyone would host me, I'd love to visit other cities/countries, and I'd return the favor if ever (though I don't know "¿why?") you wanted to visit the southwest..hey, or Mexico!
