Yep, pretty much wot I tried to say 11 posts ago
I think it got lost inbetween all the inane drivel
I disagree.
The request was for feedback.... and for ideas that would encourage more to attend.
understandably some of that would include things that peeps perceived were negative.
That does not detract from the superb work that various peeps did, and continue to do.
One has to, at a basic level, accept that it did not break even. I would ask if that was one of the objectives?
I would suggest that the OP accepts that the majority of the posts here are meant as constructive.
Do you want to increase the attendance or take the attitude "its our party - if yu dont like it - feckorf"?

I think you are mixing up a genuine reply to 110 asking why folk didn't attend with bitching about it.
She asked a question, I replied, I'm not alone in thinking that way. Then I get attacks from the usual suspects.
The only people who can say why it wasn't better supported are the people who didn't attend.
And as usual they are very unlikely to dare to post it
Me, I really dont care, bring it on

unfortunately most of the "feedback" was from people that didn't event attend or couldn't be botherd
the reason it didn't break even was people couldn't be botherd or said they would buy tickets but didn't, or had other commitments to take take time out to support the forum
I personally had to pay my roadie £80 for the evening,£80 in fuel,£20 for dinner,£18 on mcdonalds on the way home,and turning down a £300 wedding for the same evening
but I wanted to support the forum and not knock what was trying to be done..
the way to increase the attendance is for people to actually turn up and support the forum..not try and turn it into an event to try and cater for everyones very high expectations and accommodation needs

NOT BOTHERED.
that is very commendable of you to do that,but others did support the party although could not attend it.
If that is really the case then this thread is pointless!

Yeah, sorry. I'll shurrup in a minute
I don't think people are attacking various points made.
As said, I'm certain these points are being taken aboard.
I'm sure all efforts will be made to cater for everybody but compromises must be made and there is no intention to discourage people to attend. If you can't make it for one reason or another, then that's a shame, but I'm sure there will be other events that people can get to.
Ah - so for feedback, yu want peeps that were there to say how brilliant it was?

I thought feedback was requested to improve it.
If, because I couldnt go, my opinions are unwelcome, then I will shutup.
good luck next time.

no but how can you give "feedback" on something you didn't attend
I think we have some confusion here.

No, you're being deliberately obnoxious, Daft.
Constructive criticism is good- just don't see your arse when people say it's not possible to achieve what stopped you going.

Which is pretty typical.
And if anyone wants to know the second reason I didn't attend, they only have to read this thread.
Trouble is I dont think attitudes on here represent the whole forum which I think is pretty much proved by the attendance levels.
And yes I am bitching now, I wasn't before :boxing:

no but the only constructive "feedback you can offer is why you couldn't/didn't want to go
you cant offer feedback on
the location
access
ammenitys
marquee
food
hospitality
entertainment
things you would change/improve at the event
