Socialising/"meet_&_greet
While I fully understand & validate the worries enumerated & expostulated by Legal Eagle, Nobecz, OneOfTheGuys, Slippery Dick, & Zomby the fact is that, as Great Cat Hunter & White have pointed out, members of other boards {incl' GBN, which I ref' to but didn't name} have been doing it without problems for years. While I'm sure that nobody who's hobby-interests must remain totally anonymous attends, the other issues of personal animosity don't seem to have ever occured. Now on GBN the guys who started doing the strip-club get-togethers obviously mostly knew each other from their area bars & clubs already so it apparently just grew informally from there as far as show-club meets. Their occasional other meet_&_greets, where more providers are formally invited, are more carefully done by invitation-only at locations that will give them the privacy to socialise without any uninvited "guests" or catering-staff overhearing private conversations or taking pics or videos.
I have no stake either way as usually only come to L'lle on KCR Machinegun Shoot weekends anyway, because where I live I'm anywhere from 2 to 5 hours (one-way) away from any of the major metro-areas anyway.
