when someone told me abt the dubai section on this forum abt 2 weeks back... i had to search alot to find the thread..
so i guess all newcomers from dubai n mid-east countries will have a hard time searching for the thread if it's in the general discussion forum..

ppl r talking abt parties... on tht thread.. so it doesnt make sense to put it in the general discussion sections.. and then ask us to stop discussing parties!!

if nothing else...atleast an "OTHER COUNTRIES" section in "trance in the world" would be good i guess.

Seems to me that a section covering this part of the world would be good for the forum... from what I've read here and on other threads there is definitely a growing scene in many areas of the world not currently covered by Isra and giving them an area of the forum in which to discuss issues affecting the scene in their countries would be a great encouragement to them. Sure, the Middle East section might be relatively empty for a while but for a seed to grow it needs a space to grow into - and currently there is none. Let Isratrance be the gardener of the world's psy-scene... who knows what wierd and wonderful flowers we might see? To say nothing of the cross-fertilisations!

Please chill all of you.

As I said in other places before the criteria for opening a new regional section is first of all if we feel that we have enough of a community from that region that takes a positive active part in this forum and second if we have people wanting to moderate whom we feel see and feel things roughly in the same way that we do (guidelines above you in pink).

If both those things exist we can consider a new section.

Currently we're not sure this is the case (look at this topic), and on top of that I have a feeling that there's really no need for the forum to grow currently, but it is more important for it to get a bit nicer first, maybe even a bit smaller.

So, bottom line: we noted your requests, we're looking into them, if and when we decide we'll let you know.

besides all the previous reasons that we gave you, the last few days have proved that some Mexican users aren't mature enough to have a section of their own.

If you wish to be part of a community, you try to fit in, not kick it in the balls. That's what some of the users have been doing in these past day or two. Even if you go back and read this thread you will see how some people here behave and act. For a section to be opened we want to see that there is a base of a community for it, not just a group of users who have the need to post stuff. We need to see that there are contributing users, mature, responsible users who can lead a section and lead a community.

We are always considering new sections, we are always open for suggestions, we have heard your request the first, the second, the third time and all the other times that followed too. Spamming the forum and misbehaving will get us (us includes you too) no where.

If you'll read back a few pages, you'll see a response by Shahar. Read it, I have and I saw that nothing has changed since it was posted, more than 5 months ago. This is not a forum-on-demand but a trance community.

There are good Mexican users here, you know who you are, we know who you are. In any case, for the time being, it doesn't look like there is a Mexican community, only Mexican users. There is a difference.
