there's no need for a whatsapp group. You can use the 'clubs' feature on these forums.

 

Hello Neil,

I saw you mention the 'clubs' feature before, but I don't know what it is, or how to access it. I'm just thinking that maybe a pinned item explaining that the feature is there, as well as details of how to access it, might be a good idea? Are many people using this feature?

no one is using it yet. If/when i have time i will.

But there's naff-all point in running forums for people to post to say don't use the forums, such with the post a few above.

Yes, I understand what you are saying. It must be very frustrating for you as owner of this site watch people make posts which ultimately take traffic away from the site. This is why I inferred that the clubs feature needs more exposure. Obviously this site suffers from a fallow year, but maybe people talking away on other sites might return if they could talk on here. Then again, I don't know how much work it would involve you to do this. In addition, there's the obstacle of letting people using other sites know about this feature. Maybe some guerrilla advertising on those other sites might do it.

On a bit of a tangent, but my friend runs a pre-pitch campsite at Boomtown, with upcycled tents, and he always creates a 'solo traveller' campsite - he gets lots of people flying in for Boomtown and making friends that way :)

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
