Suggestion for clearer club announcements

[Dr Jacoby]

I've noticed a few club announcements recently on the forum advertising club events that don't contain details of the location and format (or don't supply a link to the relevant "upcoming events" entry). I know this is largely because most members are aware of the details already but for people who might want to pop along for the first time etc. it would be helpful to include more details if possible. Just a suggestion!

What about a template that should be followed by annnouncers? Sticky at the top of forums.

A sticky in all the "Homebrew Communities" forums is a good idea. The organisers/committee members could have a link to their specific community sticky in their signature?

I would have liked to have seen something like this before I first ventured to the Franciscan Well, on my own, with my pockets clanging with beer bottles!

A template could look like this (please add/delete what you think)

In some forum software the sticky can have a button for the template directly, I know I was on a fishing forum before that had it for fishing reports.

I don't remember which software it was though.

Im sure a lot of you prob know this... but the guy Mcsavage (who I dont like, but some of the newer stuff he's doing is good) modelled that barman character on, owns and works in the H'Penny Bridge Inn.
He's there a lot, drop in if you're passing, you'll see the likeness imediately. He's gas!

[Padraic]

I totally agree and I am one of the worst offenders! How does my modified post look in the Capital Brewers forum?

Can anyone suggest any additional information that could be added?

[JimmyM]
