Posted By turnip on 24 May 2010 11:50 AM Will this be an NAFC chapter? You speak of a state chapter...
A $5 annual fee for maintaining the site is reasonable to me (I personally wouldn't mind paying that). I am not sure I understand the rest of what you were explaining... Yes, this will be an NAFC state chapter. Similiar to the NAFC Ohio Chapter. However, I'm going to have the site have more info available than just forums. While forums are great, I'd like to have a place where members can upload photos directly, possibly have their own blogs if they so choose, there are a few ideas I am kicking around right now. The blogs, would be hosted and offered as part of the membership, if you choose, you can also get your own email @nafcillinoischapter.org Would like to also offer license purchasing, but I will have to go through the IDNR and see what that would entail. Plus sections for state parks and such. Offer maps possibly, but we shall see what all gets put in. |

If you look at the NAFC Ohio chapter, the membership is not open to JUST NAFC members. It's open to anyone who lives in OH. This is going to be the same for the IL Chapter |

Seems that this idea died along with all the other attempts. It seems to me that the club members in Il. just aren't the joining type! Notice how many Chicago area members post on the forums. Tom |

Tom, at one point there were a lot of folks from Ill. participating in this forum...Like New Jersey, before my time, they were quite active. Wisconsin has stayed active through the years, along with Pa. I think the site needs to get more stable, easier to access (not take so long for folks on dial-up) and it will pick up again... At least I pray it is so... |

It's been that way on a few other sites I am on too, not just fishing either.
Always a lot of interest in the beginning, then just a few die hards stick around for the most part later on.
Anywhooo, hope everyone's summer is going well. I've been prepping my truck for plow season, and writing contracts the last few days.  |

I would love to say that I was doing well with this, but I never heard anything from anyone, so I stopped in my tracks. I don't have any problem restarting this, as I do still own the domain.
Also, there is a NAFC Illinois Chapter on FB as well! |

It is a shame that information about the site isn't posted here for all to access...I don't care for Facebook... |
