The prepping world seems full of internet warriors and armchair survivalists. There are plenty of normal decent preppers as well but unfortunately too many of the others are just fantasists and full of shit. Everyone talks the talk on the internet but as soon as it involves getting off your arse and actually doing stuff, meeting up, sharing skills and stuff, no one turns up - and in a lot of cases it's because they have been talking crap all the time and dont want to be found out. I still look at forums but I stopped using them as a serious way of networking and linking up with other preppers long ago.

I find it all depressing to be honest

I found this out the year before last when i set up a RV on unwanted knitting patterns and only one person turned up(NR), this year was a little better with 2 or 3 people attending, the trouble is with a national forum people are so spread out, if TSHTF tomorrow there is no way we could form a survival group, it would be every person for themselves and hope to meet up when the dust settles..whenever that is!
