From what I can tell, they send out tons of invites.
It's all about marketing baby.
How do groups get so many people?
Sort:
Some groups have systems geared toward getting more members. Some groups utilise "feeder" groups. Some groups require each member to invite X number of people a week.
I think a lot of groups get members because they have cool names. That's why I joined Flaming Skulls.
