SWMG board question

It seems that for as long as I've been here, the SWMG (southwest mini-gathering) has been used for MUCH more than any south-west minigathering. Typically, it pertains to the "states of Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisana" and not the SWMG.

It seems to me that we could meet more people if the topic of the board, instead of SWMG was "states of Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisana" or the South-Central States board.

*I have no problems with the people that use the board specifically for SWMG. Just seems in the last couple years the majority of it has been for Houston and surrounding area stuff.

YES.


im in texas alot.



texas is in the SOUTH WEST



yet, if i post in the SOUTH WEST board, it gets booted or moved to the SWMG board...


im not in a minigathering.


im in the SOUTH WEST.

like what was said in this thread: https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=213423


**looks at map**

you know, no matter how many times you move threads, it still doesnt change the fact that ALOT (some could say ALL)of texas is in the south west...


the fact that you're moving them to the South West mini gathering board doesnt help either.


personally, id dump the entire SWMG board since we talk about more then minigatherings on it, and have just a south west board....

unless sooooo many texas people post that you need to change the name from SWMG to texas board.

"South Central States" would be nice. Although - anything appealing that pulls users in more than "SWMG" would be fine.

Thanks IROC. You've got to be the most active admin I've ever seen on a message board.

actually on second thought - I'll put up a poll in the SWMG forum. Let the people decid what they are to be called.

Looks like South Central States is the favorite so far.

IR2G8,

I agree with the others, lets change the name.

Done. But it's South Central Region to match the other boards.
