Having a list of venues with limiters and hopefully db levels will be a big help.
Good point, I have had that problem and at least two events ( mentioned at venues on my posts) the whole evening was effectively ruined by the limiters.

There would still be long lists however you split it up - as always the Search function is your friend!
Got a booking in a venue you've never played at before? Do a forum search and see what comes up, what's difficult about that? (surely everyone does that anyway).

I can't see what wrong with a map rather than a massive random list of posts that are not geographically relevant to 99% of the venues I would play at.
I also do not think that it could possibly be that conclusive as the thread is already only 3 pages long but full of this conversation and not any venues with limiters.
I am not knocking this idea and I applause the concept but I think there are much more efficient ways of achieving it as it will be most useful.
Well done that man for volunteering for the job and the ongoing upkeep of the list!

I've added a few to the Google Map so you can see what it would look like
http://goo.gl/maps/2kRa6
If you want Collaborate on this
- Press Edit
then for each venue
- Search for your venue in the maps search bar
- Use the Pin Tool (top left of the map) to add a point on your venue
- Add the venue name in the name field
- Add a description of the Sound limiter in the description field.
once you have added all the venues
- Click Done.
Takes about 2 minutes max per venue, if that.

I do like that map I have to say.
Would a locked copy of that was available as a post, if that is at all possible?
I know I can embed maps to my site, but I doubt it would be that way with a forum?
That would be excellent as people can then pinpoint each venue. it would take ages as a voluntary thing, but would be more efficient.

Not sure you can embed in a post with the editor available.

Not sure it's any better than doing a search to be honest. The map doesn't really add value that I can see (though willing to be convinced otherwise) and the list is non-alphabetical, so needs to be scrolled through, and once any database is over a certain size you need a search function anyway.
And if the venue isn't on the map perhaps there's a post about it, so you'd still end up doing a search just in case, and possibly finding other posts about the venue as well.
