Hey folks, the @Staff and I have been struggling with whether we should get rid of the ride board entirely. The reasoning has been that it seems to get limited use, and the use it does get tends to be from people that "drop in and drop out" from facebook or other places and aren't really interested in participating in the community (i.e. no profile pic, no profile filled out, lazy posting, etc).
In a lot of ways the road dogs and meet up section could accomplish a lot of the same goals (finding people to travel with) so in many of the staff's opinions, we wouldn't be missing out on any functionality but rather just streamlining the two sections (ride board & road dogs).
I think the @Staff did a good job of explaining their reasoning in our staff area, so im hoping they don't mind repeating those arguments here. But as the community, what are YOUR thoughts? Do you get any use out of the ride board? Could we live without it? Vote in the poll!
