Officially, the East Coast chapter is certainly established, and even has an acronym for its yearly event (TECORE anyone?) and our own little West Coast niche exists among about 4-5 of us. But we have no identifying tag that helps members know where other members are.
This, rather than subforums for regional chapters, might be a nice addition and compromise. Instead of a club, you simply have a badge that identifies your region, and which helps other members plan events more effectively.
Thoughts?

I love the idea of having regions and subforums in the Trips section for each... would clean up that section a little. No membership requirements for regions... just make it a required field in profile, along with location. I still don't see why there are members on here who have not filled out their location. They usually post it when they make their intro threads anyways... why not have a properly filled out profile?
Anyways... a way of PMing an entire region could make trip planning a little better...
