First off the news board it is for stuff that makes the news, unless you wish to post a news related story in the rumours thread we have in the news board,
Secondly not all dollars members live in the USA, we have members who live all over the world, in other words it would not be feasible for all of us to have a meet up like that, if to want to try to get some kind of meet up talk about it in the Countries sub Board.
Also Reltair says stuff when he wants to.
