Well done! you all deserve a pat on the back, I attend and support as many club meets as I can, I visit this site almost every day, I used to post as much input into discussion and debates but got fed up of seeing no response for days, though Ive been a member of the Z Club for 4 years and a member of 300zx.co.uk for only 7 months I have been discribed as a cross over member from 300zx.co.uk (god knows how I tried to belong in my early membership days), I mentioned that I may be able to help save money towards the magazine publication but have never had a reply? Oh by the way I was in hospital during the time I would have been filling the form in.

There seems to be this sweeping opinion about members who did not fill it in? may be the effort should have been put into making members feel like they belong?

300zx meet: every body introduces them selves to each other...

Z Club meet: if you dont introduce yourself most people ignore you...

OK, drunken rant over..I know what I mean even if it doesnt come across right

Hi,
Hope you're feeling better now...I look in over on the 300zx forum quite often and saw that you were in hospital...sounded painfu!!!
You're always welcome to come along to Heart Of England Group meetings, although we haven't had many this year!
It's always more difficult to mix in a club where there's such a range of people with different models of cars, whereas with the 300zx guys, they've all got the same model and therefore interest!
I know what it feels like to feel like an outsider...I own a Z31!!
I used to frequent the 300zx forum back in 2000/1, but since I sold my Z32, I don't post there any more.
Cheerz,
JEZ

Ok Steve, i suppose we should accept your hospital plea, for not filing in and returning the questionaire. You do make some valid points, and your obviously an old hand when it comes to membership, and peoples perception of their club, belonging, participation and such like.

can you give me any pointers, that may be worth further investigation, on the topic of making stagnant or idle members feel they belong, and hopefully give some of these members some motivation.

also, are you able to share with us , on this thread your idea about saving money with the club mag, if so I can put possibly push the idea forward to see if it rings any bells in the official corridors, if not would you pm me with your mag saving idea.
All the best.
Don.
