I've attended 2 different social groups over the years. When making my introductions and chit chatting I usually ask if the persons I'm talking to are familiar, members of this forum. Obviously if they are then it makes sense to see if we've exchanged views in the past.
I must admit that I've not encountered anyone who's been a member.
Given that typically there will be 20 plus people at the gathering if my experiences are replicated across other groups then it suggests that, yep that old chestnut, there's more folks in our wider community that perhaps we appreciate.
So, if you attend a social group, have you encountered others from this forum and what's the ratio of forum members to non forum members?
I appreciate it's not that scientific but it does seem a practical way to gauge just how big our wider community is.
