With members posting events to your calendar, it is most likely that each event will have links to the event and embedded images.
There is very little incentive for the websites and webpages of the events to stay online after the event has passed. In time the image links will go dead because events are very temporary.
Then it becomes a real SEO problem. Especially if a lot of events are posted. Before you know it you may have a mass of pages with dead links. Thats really bad. You do not want your site full of dead links. Google doesn't like that at all.
I'm looking at the import of my vbulletin calendar and it has a lot of broken links and images.
A solution to broken image links is to integrate with metamirror:
MetaMirror
It pulls in the images and files and makes them attachments and resolves the issue of linked images going offline and breaking.
It would be great if this would work for events.
