I really don't see what the drawback or issue for the forum admins on not creating the board. Maybe they have to do a bit of programming to set up the board and assign a moderator for the board. Fail to understand the exact reason for delaying board creation???
Imho, the main reason why those in charge are not so easy with creation of new local board is because many of them are now either semi-dead or dead (take a look at Japanese board whihc was the last created before Nigerians got their own) so they want to be sure (as much as possible) that the same thing won't happen with new ones too. Regarding moderators assignment, I don't think that's an issue as some other local boards don't have their own and function pretty good even without it.
Waiting for days and weeks seems reasonable but Pakistan local threads do not deserve a wait for years. I am saying this because we are very active in our local community and deserve a local board sooner.
While I do think that you deserve local board sooner than later, you should be prepared for a longer wait and you shouldn't get into pessimistic mode if you don't get it within few weeks or even few months. Imho, you should have started this topic 2 years ago but better late than never.
Once we get the local board, it will increase the activity also and I am sure it will turn out to be the most active local board. Just like we stand out among local threads, we will show our impression among local boards also.[/.quote]
