LJ-Meet: Saturday, 28th of June, 2008
Dear cyberabadWe've decided to have an LJ meet this weekend. Some of you have been expecting it, some of you already knew, but still, you have my apologies for the lateness of this post
( Read more... )
Your arguments are good, but fall short to a small extent. Probably one crucial point you missed was the fact that the community is not even fractionally as enthusiastic as it once used to be able to boast about (Remember the days when we used to be the most active LJ community , they've long faded.) :(
With enthusiastic members, you can take a risk with far flung locations. With a good number of people, even far-flung places become reachable to the reluctant ones if you have enough of an active crowd. Unfortunately, even once-upon-a-time regulars from the past have turned into workaholics who stare at Screens flashing MS Outlook into their eyes. :(
LJ does not pay. Neither for the meets, nor for the transportation, and definitely not for their time. They won't show up till they lighten up once again. :(
psychog and I have both been frustrated about Mocha, but the statistics prove that Mocha helps to pull in the crowd. Central location, Relative safety, decently comfortable surroundings, option for open-air or claustrophobic seating, etc. We do try different spots sometimes, but with hardly any success.
All this said, I do agree with you on a fundamental level. Mocha is monotonous!! BIG TIME!
What we need is some influx of new blood in the community. New blood that makes an effort to be active. cyberabad has gone more offline than online. It used to be the other way once, and I truly miss that.
Most of the Maintainers (read: All!) don't even visit the community or at least that's my understanding. How about we get back into being regulars and actively work toward kicking some life back into cyberabad's genetics? I know you, and I know you're well capable of ruling the roost. This comment of yours shows you still have it in you to release bolts of energy charges. :))
Deal? :-P

As for honouring your request, I'll only be able to do that once I'm sold. Right now, the current owner has allthe say. :)

psychog, you should begin trying to be in my good books, or there is no chances of your dream seeing the light of day :)
