Club event system improvements

[Joshy]

At the moment club event system... is rather lacking in terms of ease-to-use (you have to use website to create event for one) and in execution. As such, I propose the following to be done to club events;

• allow creation of club events in-game
• create feature that allows event organizer to mark a "starting location"
  
  
  
  • this starting location can be used for GPS, if you click on event in /events your GPS will be set to the position, if one exists
• add defined end time to events (so you can say event starts at 23:00 and ends at 23:30)
• possibly RSVP'ing to events, allowing organizer to see who is going to be there, etc
• maybe allow public events to be totally independent of a club
• unrented billboards are able to advertise upcoming events

Just some thoughts really, hopefully stuff like this would allow more events to be broadcast in-game so more people are aware of them...

If this sees some support, I'll (or we'll) work on it.

I love it. When I made events I hated having to do it from the website. Nice suggestion 

[Ethan]

yes, would be a great addition. I think this is why there is a lack of /events, now

Nice idea.  Creating event in game and u could gps to event location are great idea.

It would increase the no. of events.

The server does announce events that are in /events.

Upcoming events will be announced every 30 min (only for events within 3 hours, if any)

Sounds good Jooshly. One of many good changes that will greatly improve the server.
