Some suggestions for the site.

Most of these have been recommended by people but I am just putting them down in an area. (I understand the time it would take to add these items)

• Like button but also something that adds reputation to the said person on their profile. ( I understand this would probably require another MSQL Database solely for this purpose, or at least another table.
• Mandatory age on profile. We all know the reasons to why.
• Sales from out of state need to either be denied  permanently or go through a process of at least a certain amount of posts or maybe a site donation before posting a sale. This would greatly put people at ease went purchasing from someone out of state.
• A separate Thread/Forum for the cities like Prescott, Flagstaff, Payson etc. ..You can group them together if you please but the main valley I think should stay separate. Sometimes it's confusing when people post games from those areas
• More regulation on the boards to nullify some of the ridiculously stupid posts.
• A rules page they have to agree to before posting. Maybe a questionnaire they have to answer about the rules of airsoft. We have a lot of new people and they ask a lot of questions. I think a general AA rules page should be signed off on by every new person on the boards.
• The ability to delete your own post/thread.

Just a thought for some new features.

Most of your ideas I appreciate and like, but as far as having a forum for Prescott I disagree, hahaha being from Prescott I like being in the loop with the larger population of the Phoenix area. I have been able to gather a lot of information from the large volume of insight the Valley offers as well as the amount of airsoft products for sale. I have greatly benefited from the diversity of the forum.

All I was meaning is that there be a separate "Local RSVP games Thread" for games out of the valley.  Not and entire .com

I can't fathom how you expect that to be any more accurate than the volunteer age system.

Not a whole separate forum, just a separate subforum for games listings. And definitely another one for out-of-state games, like Lion Claws and whatever the name of that week-long Cold War period op is in Oklahoma that got posted a couple weeks back.

Hahahah okay, lost my breath for a minute there, I agree with that, I can see it being beneficial

• This has been considered numerous times but always gets shot down due to expected abuse by the less mature party.
• This accomplishes absolutely nothing as there's zero way to verify the age entered.
• I see no reason for this at all.  If you aren't comfortable with out of states business, don't do business out of state.  Personally I'd recommend against shipping even in state, but that's just me.
• Sub-forums by area is certainly doable and not a bad idea.  However, I think it would be better to just put an area before the name of the game before posting.  IE: [Tucson] Red Sleigh Down - Dec 8 2012
• We've had this discussion already.  Whether or not something is stupid is largely opinion.  I'm not going to ban somebody just because they are interested in something you don't like.
• As with the age, what do you think this is accomplishing?  First off you can't MAKE somebody read something.  Secondly reading doesn't mean they get followed.  I read speed limit signs all over the place.  Guess what, I still speed.
• This has been debated before and at this time we don't want people to have the ability to delete their own posts.
