This conversation broke out in the CVX thread. Moving it here as it has nothing to do with CVX!
Appreciate the thought, DW. I think the answer is that we are still a pretty small group. I don't think we've reached critical mass / tipping point yet that will make this a much more active forum. I share your concern, and my instinct is to try and do a bit more marketing to attract new members. I once posed that question to the group, and most of the responses favored not pursuing growth aggressively. People seemed to like that it was still pretty small, quiet (and civil!).
But I worry that if things do not pick up some, we will lose momentum and peter out.
Right now, the only real marketing that I do is to post occasional links to relevant threads here over on SA. I'd love to hear opinions about whether I should be more aggressive about marketing the site. And I'd love ideas about how I / we can attract more quality members to get the activity level up a bit.
Thanks!
