subforum for in-person meetups
« on: Mon, 18 January 2016, 02:05:15 »
Right now these threads seem to get dumped in "off topic", but that doesn’t seem to be a good place for them, as that subforum is almost entirely ****posts and idle banter, and the topics scroll off the front page pretty fast there. In a separate subforum it would be a lot easier to get a quick overview of where in the world people are meeting.

I agree, maybe have a section for meetups with subforums for more formal meetups such keycons and another for smaller personal meetups.

In days gone past these would be in off topic, and would be stickied until after the event.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

FTFY

A separate subforum would probably be a good idea though.  We have reached the point where meetups are a semi-regular occurrence, and I think it's warranted.
