Hobbyists and providers from those areas are far more likely to read the DC board than the Maryland board.  His point about NOVA is also well-taken.  Since there is so little action in MoCo, NOVA is a relatively convenient trip for people who live in the cities in the OP's question.

There's a reason that the admins have decided to make a single alias, it's because of people like you that abuse their privileges. That was totally uncalled for. If you don't know how to conduct and behave yourself, then I have to send you to time out for at least 30 minutes.

Loosen up, why are you so uptight? Man, this is a hobby to get laid and relax. That's what we all need to do, not to start drama like little kids bro. I'm a grown man, and you should talk to me like a grown respectable man.

The OP asked for references to Rockville and Gaithersburg. Now, you know and I know, that the Washington DC board is not exclusively to Washington DC. Would you agree that, the Washington DC board is also part of Nova? With that being said, do you also agree that Rockville and Gaithersburg is also close to those areas? Now, even though those cities are in Maryland, the DC board has passively labeled those areas as their own.

I would suggest you take some time to look at the google map of the District of Columbia. Now, look at the river at the bottom of Ohio drive SW at the District. There is a separation of Virginia and Maryland. The highway 295 up towards Hyattsville, College Park, and Cloverland, anything on the east side of that is consider the Maryland Board IMO. Anything to the west of that is consider the DC boards. Because this area is unique, there will never anything that is finalize as it relates to the regions.

If you frequent the Maryland boards, then you know that what I say is true. Most hobbyist who frequent this board is from Baltimore, and the east side of DC. Most people that frequent the Washington DC board, is from DC and the west side of DC. Do you not agree? And, do you agree if the OP would have pose his question on the DC board, he would have more feedback because of the reasons mentioned above?

Since we are only permitted to use one alias, I will remember how ugly you were towards me. I don't know what you have contributed to the Maryland boards, but, I have done my fair share with the Baltimore and Maryland community, specifically the Maryland board.

I decided to let your post slid, because I am not correct, and neither or you. The answer will always be ambiguous. But, you are very nasty in your remarks. If you don't know how to conduct yourself, then please do not participate at all. You personally do not know me, and neither do I. But, we should respect each other because we are adults. Please reconsider your post, and learn to control yourself next time. "I" over "E", intelligent over emotions produce the most successful people. So, I have warned you, and hopefully you listen to my advice. I hope that makes more sense next time you do decided to post. You are responsible for your own decisions, and anything reckless always has consequences. Good luck!

Both Rockville and Gaitherspurg are widely known as suburbs of DC, just like solver Spring (also technically in MD).  And those of us who look at both boards regularly know that the MD board is Baltimore/BWI-centered, DC board covers all the DC suburbs like NOVA & near suburbs in MD.  Very many providers going to BWI post on both boards.
