It's not going to get any bigger.

 

ive always said we shoulf start up a new forum which is invitational, call me out of order for that but i cant be dealing with meeting countless new people on the web every week, real life yeah.

 

but as ray says i probably wont get much bigger, as new people join, other people leave.

 

over christmas shite loads of peeps joined and were are they all now??

This is very true. We have had a steady 35-45 people online now for over a year yet our new members ratio is up 65%.

Hehe, oh dear.

The real clubbing community for me has been and will always be the people who actually travel out to places with us and meet us and the others as much as possible. The venue / event is less important / relevant to me anymore - it's all about meeting up and having a laugh together.

This 'group' is still very very small - only about 20-30 people I reckon - people who regularly come out and don't just follow the big events but also choose to come to CTW mid-week drinks, and other non-clubbing events. This is the direction we are now pushing.

So i don't think the real CTW community is exhausted at all and the initial dream of 100+ of us roaming the country together is still not realised. The recent CTW weekender in Ireland is a good example - only about 5 of us from the UK are going !

We've still got a long way to go before we are the clubbing community we hope to become.

"well there's so many people here, i should start a message board for people within the group to meet each other".

and then a new smaller CTW will start and grow, until it eventually gets too big and someone starts something smaller.

Thanks for the insightful suggestion, @TomD

Actually, this is already possible on CTW! There's a 'Clubs' section (currently disabled) that allows users to create sub-communities with their own forums, articles, galleries, etc., and even moderate them. However, I agree that CTW would likely need a much larger user base for this feature to be truly useful.
