I find it funny how you guys keep throwing these gatherings and everyone always back out at the last minute.
Here are the reasons why these gathering will never work...
Everyone's from different places and SPCNET doesn't have a big enough community to have a substantial number of members in one area. So even if there is a gathering no more than a handful of people will show up. And no one is gonna go out of their way to meet a couple of strangers from online.
What we gonna do once we meet? Pretend to know each other? That's gonna be awkward. Sure, let's go to Sin City. Anyone here up for clubbing or going to a show? No? Oh sh it, what are we gonna do now? Are we gonna hang out for the whole day or a couple of hours? There's no organization. There's no plan. Just a few idealistic individuals with the intention to meet up. "Oh! So that's how you look like!" Yeah, that's gonna motivate alot of members to come.
Not everyone is thrilled about meeting new faces. Everyone's scared of encountering weird people. There's no point in trying to ignore it. We're not that close. The guys might want to meet the girls but the girls don't wanna come if there are not enough of them. And the guys also don't wanna come if it's just a one huge sausage fest.
