Just wondering I see where other cities are planning theirs. I believe I asked a similar question last year or the year before but figured I was too new to get invited...

It has been discussed before, but I think the general consensus is that most folks think the risk is not worth the reward.

People have them. It is small groups. I went to one, was a complete waste of time business wise but a fun night anyway.

Guest011214 · 02-22-2012, 10:29 AM

Trust? Honesty? Communication? Friendship?

Sorry Angel yep itll never work....!

I would go to one if the person screening the potentials was someone I trusted.

blk07lac · 02-23-2012, 10:57 AM

Sounds like the ladies would love to have one but the fellas aren't really interested... Whether it be a big meet or a small group next time I would love to be invited.

BigDeal · 02-23-2012, 03:14 PM

From what I hear the last one was filled with speculation LE was watching and other
BS

Personally I would like it!

I think if we threw some ideas around we could put something small together in a few weeks... Basically figure out who wants to come, get them screened. Decide on a location to meet for drinks and some fun. Nothing over the top, just several like minded individuals meeting at a bar on a slow night of the week having some laughs.

I wold be interested in getting to know you ladies outside of "work".

Sign me up, send me a PM, etc...

MsElena · 02-24-2012, 03:31 PM

So, who will be responsible for the screening? Are people going to trust that person enough to give them their info? Where are you going to have? Are you going to have it be open to anyone? What kind of dress code will you have?

I heard the last one was a BLAST. Its a shame I missed it. (note HUGE sarcasm)

If it doesn't cost you a thing.....Of course you would. Isn't that what NSA is all about?

Assuming this is more sarcasm from you..

And, I do not see a M&G as a venue for freebies, as that word pertains the activities that a person spends or earns money doing (or not doing).

Why so defensive about drinks and a good time, in a public place? LOL

MsElena · 02-24-2012, 03:50 PM

Not defensive, its called being smart.

Think about it really hard, see what scenarios you come up.

nsaseeker42 · 02-24-2012, 04:04 PM

Not hard to imagine the bad, but not hard to imagine a safe time either. It seems to you being smart and having fun are mutually exclusive... meeting a a bar like W-XYZ, for drinks and conv. can be fun if done with some smart planning. Heck, so LE shows up, can't arrest anyone for drinking and talking at a bar, can they?
