The meetups section on this network is intended to be used for meeting up with others in your area. I realize some of you are not interested in that. I would expect about half are though.
In order for the meetups to work, you have to use them. Go join a group in your area. If there is not a group in your area make one. Please look to see if there is a group in your area before making one.
Some people do not realize just because there is no group in your area does not mean there is no one in your area. I bet you there is.
Point is for it to work people need to join the meetups or make one for your area. We did this before and I think at the time 50 people were in the Southern California group. And some of us hung out in real life via that meetup.
