Okay, I'm going to build on our analogy of the zombie apocalypse.
Yeah, the urban is the ideal place for pre-made resources lying around. But if we're already rural, we aren't used to the burden of urban living turned bad (regular zombie horde to fend off). What makes rural living advantageous for us is that it relies more on sustainable living, which rural people are already accustomed to pre-apocalypse!
With rural people, you best bet is the occasional trek out to the urban area to scout for the occasional resource we can't get here (the snaps!) and just let the community grow its own resources off of that (discussions).
Yes, if we were aiming to be the next Facebook, we should aim to get big, fast. But I don't think we are, and it's probably fine to be on the small side for now.

In that case, we need more unity and ways to let members know about the smaller and more out of the way tribes so the community can grow as a whole.
This I feel is one of the flaws. The Tribes Index shows not all the Tribes, but the most popular ones, making discovery a little bit strange.
Do you know where we can submit suggestions?
/t/ideasforsnapzu is the tribe you're looking for :P
Thank you :)
