State Chapters

Is It possible to have a chapter for each state? For one thing It would save alot of time on the "buy, sell and trade" because alot of people look for FTF sales with someone close in there own state. alot of the sales dont even list a state.

The rules require that the state be listed in the thread title, and those thaf don't comply are deleted.

The search function works well in the buy, sell, trade section. Use all variations of the state name as search terms, e.g., va virginia, and search titles only.

Since Tuttle8 is the new mod there, and since he has placed the new rules into effect, it is much easier to search the current threads, for what you want.

Give it time.

50 new forums?

Surely you jest... seems to me it'd be a moderators' nightmare, and a lot of good threads would be hidden where I'd never find them; it's a good thing that the number of forums on TFL is rather small... they don't proliferate every time a few members get an idea for another one, the way you see on some other boards.

From what I see on Glock talk - it ends up with 8 guys talking to each other.

Many states do have active and specific forums. TX, OK for example.

Better to set up for yourself a web page with those URLs.
