Likely because if you don't know anyone, you aren't gonna get into the parties or invited to the dinners and so on. I've been in this biz several years now and I've yet to go to any events other than a small get together that happened here in FL.

Maybe if the parties catered more to the average webmasters then maybe more would attend. Instead it's always vip parties catering to the bros club so you get no one but they guys you already know and reps from other programs.

Think about that when you are sponsoring a party.. Do you want to sponsor an event that just caters to the same ole same ole, or do you want to cater to the average webmaster.

Sure every program wants that whale whom sends $20k a month in joins but how likely is it you are gonna get many of them? On the other hand it's probably much easier to get 20 or 30 webmasters whom send $1k a month in joins.

In short if the shows catered to the average webmasters instead of the bros club, well then maybe the average webmaster would show up.
