I have felt for a very long time that it would be a mistake to branch off and do our own forum. This website is the nerve center of open carrying, and splitting off from it would do no good.
However, I've been realizing more and more lately that the Michigan section is a complete mess, and needs to be fixed, one way or another. I still feel my idea of 3 sub forums, and a few people with only an ability to move threads within them, would be the best idea.
But if Mike and JPierce are unwilling to allow that, I am starting to believe MOC should make its own forum. Hopefully if it comes to this, there could be a sticky here and a prominent link there to link one site to the other.
If we had our own forum, or more substantial control here over trolls and other idiots, as well as the ability to clean things up when they need it, we could have a much more pleasant, friendly and useful way of communicating with each other. It doesn't reflect well on us that our primary means of communication is a cluster ****.
This thread is nothing more or less than a petition to both JPierce and Mike, as well as MOC. If you believe that Michigan OCers would benefit from having several sub forums here with a few people who can move threads, please say so. If you also believe that the next best thing is for MOC start its own forum, please say that too.
By the way, this is not intended as a place to argue this issue, it is only a petition to be signed off on if you agree. All I ask is that if you agree with me, please say so. If you don't agree with me, please feel free to bump this thread to argue it out- http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum30/40028.html
