RE: UK collective retreats - bigpaul - 7 July 2012
i am personally against groups of 20-30, i think this is too large a group and will lead to arguements and ill-feeling, if i joined a group...and its a big IF... i feel the maximum number should be 5-6, large enough to get the work done but not so large to be falling over each other, small enough to get to know each other and to know each others strengths and weaknesses.

i got agree on 5-6 being a perfect group size...although im not adverse to larger groups of 20-30.....mostly it depends how long ago the SHTF

RE: UK collective retreats - Timelord - 7 July 2012
We probably wouldn't have any other option in the short to mid term (however long that is?
) There could be quite a strong feeling agaiNST REBUILDING SOCIET IN THE FORM OF THE OLD ONE. tHAT COULD CAUSE SOME TENSIONS BETWEEN GROUPS IN THE LONGER TERM. (EXCUSE CAPS - AGAIN - tired)
RE: UK collective retreats - Hrusai - 7 July 2012
i didnt say i was gonna rebuild it in the image of the old one did i?
RE: UK collective retreats - Timelord - 7 July 2012
And you didn't say you weren't did you?
Unless you say you wish to rebuild it in a different way, then it is perceived that you wish to rebuild it based on what we already have.
Nevertheless, in the future ATSHTF, & then some, it could cause friction between groups who wish to rebuild on the model we have now and those groups who wish for something different for their Post Apocolyptic future.
