Idea - Community Calendar
I know vbulletin supports calendars, but would a community-oriented calendar be of any use here (or rather, get used)?
For example, Bogley "community leaders" (in my opinion at least) IE - @Sombeech, @accadacca, Iceaxe, rcwild, @ratagonia, @jumar, @tanya, @Bo_Beck, etc.) could place calendar events that are public. Not just "anyone" would be able to place an event - as this would create WAY too many events, and of course spammers would easily ruin a potentially good idea.
So if there is a meetup, or Bogley Fest, canyoneering workshop, bike trip, weekly bike rides, a boating trip, you name it - it would be listed on the calendars and everyone could see it.
Within the calendar, for example, if rcwild (Rich Carlson) was having a meetup or workshop for Canyoneering, he give a brief snoposis of what it is, and then give a external-link to his official meetup page, etc.
Would this be effective?
