Should we advertise on /k/? [RESOLVED]


The question is, should we post a thread on /k/ like we have on /diy/, /x/, /tg/, and /sci/?


PROS

- Many members of /k/ are skilled and experienced in things like farming, building, and generally surviving in harsh conditions.

- Many members have /k/ own a lot of survival equipment which they could contribute.

- According to several anons, /k/ attempts projects like this all the time. It sounds like they'd be very interested.

CONS (among others)

- Having a stockpile of weapons in our town makes us look even more suspicious than we already are. We don't want that kind of attention from locals, or worse, from the CIA/ATF.

- Guns may just lead to violence. (debatable)

Re: Should we advertise on /k/?


I'd say yes because we will need farmers and atleast SOME weapons but vary few. Have we decided if we will have law enforcement, you also never know what might happen that might require firearms to protect our people. I also would like to hear what they have to say if they've attempted this before

Yes, because right now we have very few people with actual skills. But seriously, get rid of the hand-groin flag and the utopia pics you used on the first thread. Show some of our land in W. Texas.

Re: Should we advertise on /k/?


Yes, they've tried this before, but that may just have made them think it's impossible. Remember the backlash in /tg/? I'm thinking that, but bigger. That's just a worst-case scenario however, so I'm not really sure (well, not a worst case, but still just the same nagging part of my mind that responds to "I should call grandma this afternoon" with "She might not make it to tomorrow.") They may have some very helpful advice.

Re: Should we advertise on /k/?


I can't recommend this yet. As the (current) principal land owner with my ass on the line, no, I would want to see some serious qualifications, and meet every one face-to-face months before joining the community. We haven't even gotten the laws, codes or government straightened out.

It ain't the Wild West, not yet anyway.

Wouldn't we be interviewing everyone anyway? We obviously wouldn't be accepting everyone just because they posted in the /k/ thread.

Still, I think that if we do choose to tell /k/, we should wait a while before doing so. We've done a lot of advertising in the last few days anyway.

Do you happen to have a link to the thread (if it hasn't 404'd yet)?

Alright, it looks like most of us want to advertise on /k/. I'm going to make a thread tonight.
