So I was BSing with Xjae, who suggested that more threads and posts would help attract more interest in the club.......
Sounds logical to me
Rather than posting a bunch of threads on my own, without any idea what our members might or might not find interesting, I'm going to ask for suggestions from everyone. A particular topic need not interest everybody, but I want to see if at least a few people like it so it doesn't drop dead after two or three posts
Here are a few suggestions from me, some of which I've come up with after reading whats already been written:
A where to go, this place was great thread. Did you find a great spot, or a great boat trip you want to share? Pony up the driving directions and compass headings Got this one from Vternovski when he mentioned liking a particular area at Dutch Springs. Thanks Vadim!
Compliments of Docmartins post, a required/recommended reading thread. We can discuss or ask about books pertaining to our local area. This would also be a good place to post links to any online articles or websites of local interest. Thanks Martin!
A "Buddy Board" (this one is my idea ) This should not be confused with the "lets go diving thread". It's not for "I'm going here, who can come?" This will be a thread for local divers who are looking for a long term buddy to form a real dive team. Members can post things like skill level, prefered dive conditions etc, and hopefully find a match.
We obviously will eventually need FAQ and club rules sticky sections. We'll probably need to wait until we actually get asked some questions and have some rules though
I've got some more ideas, but don't want to overdue it right off the bat . We've got a long winter ahead us to "Cyber Dive" together.
Any feedback on what I have so far, and new ideas are welcome.
Regards,
Scott
