Totally agree with the last few posts.
I don't see any need to confirm,it's just nice to see who else MAY be attending .
Nobody I'm sure wants to be tied down to a decision they may make 2/3 months in advance.
So without the "confimation button" who agree's that the old system worked well ?.

Meets are supposed to be just "I will be here if anyone wants to join me" affairs
If the majority of members wanted the ability to have attendees listed then i can add it in, but it seems overkill for what a meet is supposed to represent
Thank you for the reply Dave
Meets are supposed to be just "I will be here if
Who determines what a meet is? A meet to me is in a sense an informal rally as well as, I will be at
As stated we need to know the totals for meets so it is not overbooked.
I am happy enough to not have confirmation, how you would know when full?
Now no matter how anyone looks at it Southport was a Meet. How would Johhny and Bob have known when full? I am certain if mor Meets were organised up North the attendance would be high.
I want to see who is going to a meet. I am sure some would not want to attend if I was going and vise versa.
It does not seem overkill to me.

Look at the Southport rally. It is not a rally it is a meet, it was only altered to a Rally because of the issues at the time.
Hi Steve
You're jumping to conclusions again.
Last time in this thread you asked for an explanation of the DEFRA certificate and it's pertinence to the Southport rally. Now, as a result of the reply I posted you're saying that because the MHF DEFRA certificate may not be required that it isn't a rally - not necessarily. Meets should be small, informal gatherings, not large events. The Southport rally has 40 attendees which in itself is justification for designating it a rally regardless of the premises on which it is held.
I agree totally with what Jacquie has proposed, she is after all the MHF expert on events and she's been there many times before so she knows what's what.
Nuke has spoken now so you know what needs to be done if you all feel so strongly about having a formal attendees list.
"If the majority of members wanted the ability to have attendees listed then I can add it in"
OK then, so all you need is 9355 members to request it and Nuke is obliged to do it or break his promise.
Sorry, bad joke I know but I just couldn't resist.
As stated we need to know the totals for meets so it is not overbooked.
Not sure if I am missing something but surely we know when a meet is full when someone phones the campsite to book themselves on and the campsite say they are full
Hi Ken,sorry I just can't my head around some of the replies here.
For my part I would like to see a list of attendee's so that i could make a decision as whether I would like to go myself.
Although living in central England, distance is not really an issue if say I wanted to travel north for a warm welcome (not to say its not sometimes in the south).
I'm not sure that the whole "Meets/Rallies" situation has not become a political "hot potato".
I'm sure that you & many others here have heard the old saying"if it ain't bust don't fix it".
I & many other did not consider the old system bust. Has Dave backed himself into a corner,of course I would not presume to tell him how to run his site,but surely he should listen.

lol i have listened Gary, did u read what i put above, if it is too awkward for the person who is suggesting the meet to collate names posted in a thread for some reason then i can code it back up as before without confirmation etc

Thank you very much for that Dave. I am more than happy with that and look forward to the Meets page listing Attendees.
I see no need for me to post on here any further, I apologise if I failed to reply to some of your comments.
I now look forward to the Southport meet, I hope to attend more through the cold period as well.
