It appears to be describing more of a munch, as social events can be held in many different places by any site member.
Personally I think little gem was not far off the mark in the other thread, but I'd also like to see it in writing that:
The events must be free
Details must not be published in the forum or chatroom e.g. exact location
Pete any chance you can reduce the size of the first pic?
Neil when you say "We all know" I think you're referring to the "ol' school".
In a nutshell some things billed as socials are actually "we're meeting in the pub and as soon as everyone arrives we're off back to someones house"
Now I've always been more of a "use your common sense" that "we need more rules" person, but in the current climate I do think it needs a few clear guidelines in writing to clarify and refer people to.
e.g.
Social means no play
Private party/Meet expect play.
Don't divulge venue information in the forums/ads or chatroom
At the moment if someone starts organising a "Social" in the chatroom at their own house and then put's a post up in LMU saying "we're having a social, but we need more girls more the men" where does is state that this isn't classed as a social?
