No Criostoir, nothing that sinister at all...we just haven't yet figured out all who are coming and, therefore, how or where to set up the logistics of meeting people. Other than me meeting Sausy, I don't think arrival time for anybody else is known yet. And, for that matter, the time I'm meeting Sausy isn't actually known yet, either, because THAT may depend on what time the first person is coming to the meet as well...
Sausy, cool that you heard from Riverrick. We almost had an Ohio "CONTINGENT" attending, wow. Sorry that he can't make it, though. I met him once and he's a pretty cool guy.
In my PM to Criostoir, I repeated the one real complaint that I have about this site - the JUB Regional Gatherings FORUM is really "hidden" so that hardly anybody is ever going to find it by accident. It's not on the drop-down menu, and it can only be found by the View All Forums function and, even then, it's near the bottom of the page.
I've had this complaint for years...I'd love to see JUB gatherings given particular emphasis. That Forum should be listed at the very top, even BEFORE Hot Topics, and it should be on the drop-down menu. I believe that, in general for any and all social websites, meeting events are one of the most important things that can happen on the social side. I'm talking not only about events in gay groups, but even groups such as kayakers, National Rifle Association, stamp collectors, etc. Or am I just old-fashioned?
But Criostoir's response is actual *PROOF* that these things are simply far too hidden.
I HOPE TO HEAR OF OTHERS WHO CAN COME, AS WELL! For what good it will do, I think I'll have to link to this thread.
Administrators, are you listening?
