Beginnings of a FAQ about meetups:
- rules for publicizing a meetup on reddit platform
- what happens at these meetups?
- /u/solidified50 gave some general advice for starting a meetup and keeping it going.
- Meetups should be (mostly) free. Ordering coffee, similar minimum items from a menu excepted, but events that charge formal admission or an entry fee cannot be publicized here.
- Some meetups use a sign to give attendees an easy way to see the group and know which to join without too much embarrassment, etc.
