It is nice to find other people with the same gear or intrest to help with questions, suggestions, or random info. So a "club" is a nice way to put all these people in one spot.

We get these threads every so often. About the same frequency of "is there a forum for <insert hobby/interest/etc here> like TalkBass?"

As a mod who has been here since 2003 I find this post to be of a dubious nature.

No, you may not. Now go join the appropriate clubs, or sell your gear.

Hmmm. How can you be in a club for people who don't want to be in a club?

The 'twins paradox' seems easier to contemplate

This. When my Zoom club thread gets bumped, quite often, it's because of users who have questions.

As an anal-retentive smartass I find your claim of being a mod to be of a dubious nature.
