Remember how Gaia once told us a while ago that there would be guild functions you could purchase using guild gold? Finally, an answer to the infamous question, "What are these features going to be?"
If Gaia announced this stuff a long time ago, I am really sorry. I just discovered this myself. I only recently became incredibly active on Gaia again in October, so once again, forgive me if this is old news.
Q: So, what can we purchase?
A: More forums!
Q: Why?
A: Because 1 forum isn't enough...?
Q: Oh, so to keep things organized?
A: Sure!
Q: How much does each new forum cost?
A: 2500g
Q: But, we're poor!
A: Oh, contrary to popular belief, the Gaian Runners Guild currently has c. 13,000g as of 12-17-06
Q: Are we getting more forums for our guild?
A: Um. I don't know. That is up to you, dear guild member! Do you WANT more forums? More specific places to discuss stuff? Currently this guild isn't overflowing with pages in our single forum, so personally, I don't really deem this feature quite necessary yet. (See my post directly after this one for my current ides) HOWEVER, if I get an overwhelming amount of people thinking about this and agreeing that more forums would be awesome, I'll add them.
Q: What can I do to get new forums for our guild?
A: Post here, in this thread! Tell me why you want another forum, what you would want the main subject to be in (a) new forum(s), how it would improve our guild, and increase guild awesomeness. Just post any thoughts/questions/comments/concerns in THIS thread!
Q: YAY!
A: Yay indeed.
So, now that you've read this odd conversation with myself I totally just had, POST AWAY!

First idea: Our own chatterbox (not spambox, more like an Off-Topic box)
When the guild was first formed, I decided it would be a good idea to allow space for NON-running related topics so people in the guild could hang out and get to know each other a little bit, aside from running, PRs, etc.
There are several OT threads within the forum, so an OT forum is definately a possibility. Give me feedback!!
My thoughts on separate, running related forums: how broad? Maybe a "Cross country" forum, a "track" forum, an "Etc Running" forum for everything not specifically track or xc? Would this in fact help you out finding topics you want? Organizing! Yay or nay?

How about a relay forum? Relay is one of the best running event because the runners actually work as a team. It would add to the diversity of subjecs in the guild and also create yet another place for people who share interests to chat about them and gain some helpful relay tips. biggrin

megafrost!!!! 1st idea: Contests! Just think about it.... 2nd idea: Guild siggys. Use the money to help pay for a siggy with everyone in it... mrgreen Hmm...can we do that with the guild funds? I'm not really sure what all we can do with the gold yet, besides add subforums. I will look into this though! It is a neat idea!

blorangetrish How about a relay forum? Relay is one of the best running event because the runners actually work as a team. It would add to the diversity of subjecs in the guild and also create yet another place for people who share interests to chat about them and gain some helpful relay tips. biggrin I like this idea. I play soccer, so relays are the only things that relate to it. People who play other sports can give advice on teamwork that trackies usually don't need ^^ I think we DEFINATLY need a seperate track subforum, and one for xc! For me personally, i would like to possibly see a field events subforum. I know it's not running, but there are runners who do field events. I'll run any event you give me, but in spring track i throw shotput and discus as well (ironic b/c i'm tiny xd ). For throwers, tips could be given on different spins to try. For jumpers, idk, i'm not a jumper, but i'm sure there's something sweatdrop It could also give advice to people who are planning to compete in events like the pethatlon or decthatlon (spelling?). I participated in peth. this past season, and i'm clueless at high jump. i had one person trying to teach me and it wasn't working hehe.

I know this is late, and we've already spent the gold on the 2 new subforums, but i just thought of this (maybe for the next sub-forum?):
Injuries!
Almost everybody gets them, and we all need to know how to treat each individual one.
Just a thought sweatdrop domokun
