Yes, but it very poorly planned in many cases.. for example, the RADAR and Frisky/Chefwide meetup... the KillahBee and Lestat meetup... the poor turnout in Vegas for the Devastation/Dakotah vacation and orgy...
Also many people are so insecure they are afraid of meeting a board member of the same sex in fear of being labeled
Some people are just too inesure to meet anyone period!
As with everything in life, all it takes for a good meet up is some common sense, but unfortunately it has to be repeated over and over in order for people to get it.
