When I was young and we were camping around the eastern US in a pop-up my parents had a sign with our names that they hung out so other people knew who we were. They went out of their way to make other people's acquaintance and would end up with visitors at our campfire or going to theirs. I do see the name sign here and there but not like BITD.
We don't do this and never have really. I guess when we got our first pop-up when the kids were little we had a retail photo lab/camera store and were tired of dealing with people all week and went camping to get away and it became habit. I'll say hi and offer to help out if I see someone in a fix but we just don't go out of our way to make new friends. With the trailer it's too easy to sit inside and read or surf BITOG or whatever instead of being outside. We hike a lot with the dogs and I ride my mountain bike if there's trails and we sightsee/daytrip the area so it's not like we spend all our time in the trailer. With a pop-up you do everything outside but sleep.
