I do not mean this as a rhetorical question: I mean it literally. Tell us what’s stopping you! I don’t want to invalidate you, but the opposite. I’m sure people here would love to help if it’s possible. Post away!

Personally, I think Covid and the general amount of work everyone does are the two biggest obstacles to community building. Not just for me, but everybody I know. It’s nearly impossible to build a community when nobody has the energy to even play a video game together, and actually meeting up in person can literally kill you. There are definitely solutions, but we need to realize them as problems first to find them. If you have suggestions, please share them! Same goes for the issues everyone else shares (if they’re ok with help, of course).

A lot of people are just plain busy. I'm not really an exception, in addition to regular person stuff I also hold national positions in a certain org with a good number of people. I have been getting significantly more involved locally in the past year though.

Something I see a lot is people joining up and becoming a member, but for one reason or another not participating. Y'all, please show up to a meeting. I'm begging you.
