My concerns: If the cut off is say Chilliwack, the multiple events that I post in Hope will not show up in 'Lower Mainland Events' and most who live in the Lower Mainland will not see my events - even though I am catering to those who reside in the Lower Mainland.
Is it so bad to include Hope? Are there that many Hope Furs posting events?

Is is just me, or does no one actually click the lower mainland event forums to find one? It is always in recent posts, the calender, signature or "events coming up" at the bottom of the main page I check.

This sounds counterproductive to categorise Fraser Valley/Rest of BC stuff in Lower Mainland, right? Why have it specific if half of BC is lumped in to it?

Perhaps "Lower Mainland/Fraser Valley" makes sense as the people who can go to either places are often seen going to events in both areas, and Rest of BC being, say, Camp Rawr in Penticton or Kelowna /etc. but I think what the poll has decided now works.

The farther one travels, the less one knows.

I personally think it should say BC events and not have a place specification so it doesn't matter how far someone travels. I think if people in Vernon or Peachland (which there are furs out there I met them several times) see events posted all on one thread they can travel accordingly. Like your events for Campfur, it's for all furries in the province and so few look in "rest of bc" or anything like that at all. The fur I met in Peachland said they would drive out to local events that are a few days long like Camping or Vancoufur but she didn't know how to work the forum and couldn't find anything in their area because she didn't know it was separated. I saw her once on here then never again. The other two in Vernon travel to Hope all the time, they aren't part of the forums - yet. It would make more sense just to have a BC residents thread than something in pieces with so many furs going across the "lower mainland" and "Fraser valley". And the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland also cross over each other so the line gets more skewed.
