Get a grip! And Guys, I mean not of your cock - of your manners!!
- Show DECORUM for the venue [not always a private function room]. My Mother always reminded us to "Act your age, not your shoe-size". Getting blotto in the first two hours will not only show you up as a drinker, but also ruin any chances you have of making friends and at worst could end up with you being thrown out of the event, never to be asked back again.
- Show DISCRETION - and chat like adults - not like spotty teenagers at the local flea-pit dance or cinema. Just because we're all from site here, does not mean we are any of us sleazy or lewd in public. Remember, what's acceptable in the chatrooms and on cams is generally NOT acceptable out in the real world where the Meets take place.
- Show RESPECT - for the Organisers, helpers, DJs, venue staff and most of all - your fellow Meeters. They've put a great deal of faith in inviting Newbies to the Meets, so make sure you can leave knowing you've done nothing to prevent you becoming a regular, next time. They've also all put themselves out, in time, money and effort, to make a great night for YOU AND EVERYONE ELSE.

"Marie, as I am attending my first M&G this information is both timely and very useful. Thank you for taking the time and thought into putting this up. You have eased my trepidation in attending considerably and thwarted my string of emails with 100's of question to Sexyheels and Bustie Blonde. I know I would have received very courteous responses as ever but it still wouldve tied up their valuable time which they could easily devoted to much better things. Thx on behalf of myself and other newbies x" ** sorry Jenny I meant Sexyheels and Blondie Babe. Xx  | |||

"Awesome advice. Greatly written. Aprreciate your effort. Many thanks. | |||
"The trouble with common sense is that it's not very common." You can say that again. A great little litany to have on hand for all events. I may "borrow" this for my event.  | |||

Acquired knowledge from over 12 years around the scene - sort of: been there, done that and seen how badly the T-Shirt ends up when you don't play by the rules!
Use at will - Link folks to this page, though - rather than copy/paste - for two reasons:
a] the formatting goes all to pot in other websites [Yes! I've tested the theory - and know it's easier to copy the link!!]
b] it was written for the club I ran, and the members were from here [and a couple of other similar sites] so it's relevance is fairly specific to the lovely feckers here!
