    So I have no idea if this software can support this or not, but I got the idea while I was reading about it so here it goes...

    Would it be cool to host "AA Meetings" (we may have to work on the title)? We could decide on a topic to discuss and actually have a webinar where a panel of experts could discuss the topic in depth and answer questions from the rest of the group. The experts could be members of AA or not. We could also record these webinars and post them on AA as additional resources for members.

    Just throwing that one out there. :p

    HAHAHA RR said AA meetings.

    I use to use GARS (also known as Geek Article Review System, or vb add-on, or vb.org clone, or modification system) and liked it very much. Once you get the hang of it and design it to work for your needs it really is a good add-on.

    I too like GARS and yes it was very easy to customize the templates. That's what I loved about it. You could create your own and call them instead of the default.

    I personally like the acro..... Good Ass Review System!
    Yes I do know what GARS is :cool:

    That's a very interesting concept, RR! I'll have to inquire as to whether or not this script could support this (or something similar). :)

    I'm pretty sure it doesn't. But we could use any other simple chat program to do something like this.

    Great idea, RR! :)

    Nick/Chris,

    You could do an interview/recording using Skype and a recording tool (I can't remember the name of the one I used) and publish it as a short weekly/monthly podcast and make it available here on the site using the Downloads II mod over at vB.org.

    Just a thought. AA takin' it to the next level. ;)
