Munch invites/Joined date an thread line...

1 Sep 2005

Have been reading through some of the threads on Sean aka Fabio Grooveriders North East Munch thread and checking out the people who are asking for invites, we have very kindly been invited :thumbup: smile

, and were getting a feel (pardon the pun) for others who may be attending.....
anyway on to my point, having been on the site a few months now and quite regular forum users we were amazed at how many people had put on comments such as "been on the site a while now and wondering if we can have an invite?" well the thing that we were wondering was if these people have been on the site so long how come most of them have only put up about three threads in all that time??? dunno

we are REALLY looking forward to the munch (our first) so we can meet all the people we regularly have a bit of banter with on the foums and enjoy a great night but rach was worried that there might be a lot of people there who are just there for the "gawp factor" and the chance of an easy shag, who are not very regular on the site????
You have a tough job ahead of you shaun my friend, it must take some organising, will get you a pint or two, looking forward to a great night :cheers:

Possibly a fair point, though remember that there are lots of people who use the chatrooms regularly but don't read the forums, and vice versa (I'm one of the latter category, I've never got the hang of chatting online in real time, I prefer to have at least a few minutes to consider what I'm writing). They may also be people who're known personally by regular users of SH, although they don't use the site themselves much.

glad to hear it buster, but it shows we are taking an interest, and we say shave the tash, but were sure in the end the final decision is well and truly yours......
also read your thread about unusual places to have sex, when me and rach first met we had sex on her brothers trampoline,in her back garden,in the middle of the day, we thought we were ever so discreet untill her nextdoor neighbours son said to rachs little brother on his return from holiday "i saw your rachel and some man making love on the trampoline...." redface

:giggle: :giggle: :giggle: @ 'couple'.
SteanRachy, whatever concerns she has, are worth addressing now, so that they don't put you off attending a munch. They really are social occasions and it's great to put faces to the names you see on the forum. With regard to the 'gawp factor', there will undoubtedly be some who will go and look, then possibly decide that the lifestyle isn't for them after they've had a chance to discuss the ins and outs of it (oops, bit of a pun there, sorry). If you meant gawping as in staring at body parts on display, then that shouldn't be an issue as the 'dress code' is just the kind of clothes you might wear for a pub night out (If body parts are on display, no doubt people will look, though).

We do ??????
Not this Munch Whore :wink:
On a semi serious note (must I ??) One of the best things about a munch for me recently is to see the newer members and first time munchers change as the evening goes on.
To see them start to relax a little, join the fun, chat more, sometimes even start to flirt a little. Until, at the end of the night - they're as relaxed and happy, glad they came, as anyone else is.
I think the "hand-holding" schemes and ideas that are kicking about should be encouraged and expanded upon.
I'll "hold anyones hand" at any Munch, if they feel the need - but only until the first wobble kicks in, then you're either on your own, or you can hold mine to help keep me upright.

Tip-top post I reckon.
In my opinion, you don't tend to get many gawpers. Nervous newbies yes, and some with expectations that it's going to be some covert sex party.
As is always stated, it is purely social. Obviously those attending tend to be more open and willing to be more , lets say, erm , forward, than you might get at a normal night out. But a munch is just hectic fun. If anything is true, you'll wonder afterwards why you had any nerves in the first place... it's just like a pissed up version of the forum/ chatroom but in real time and with actual people and not pixels... the time flashes by and before you know it you'll be sitting at home counting down to the next one!
Oh.... and you'll say at least 10 times.... "... you're not like i thought you'd look like at all.."

I believe the technical term is "Shaved below, trimmed above"
Obvioulsy, I'll be shaving my chin(s) - but there's also a good chance the clit tickler will be missing too :shock:

:

I have never been to a munch and seen anyone there just for the 'gawp factor' or the chance of a easy shag, in my experience the people who do these muches are very selective of who they invite and every munch i have been to has been a great night full of genuine people.
As for people who have been on the site a long time asking to go to munches who have only posted a few posts, i think thats your classic example of people who only want to chat if they think they can get something out of it and probabily are the type of people going in hope of a quick shag :shock: which is probabily why theres people do not get a invite unless vouches for by a regular user.

At our first munch I was guilty of the "Gawp factor"..............but only watching my better half, in fact, if memory serves, Marcuso joined me in the Gawping at some point wink

On a serious note.
Your post is spot on with some fears that I think a lot of newbies feel. The only thing I can say is that you WILL have a great time, in like-minded company and after your first Munch you'll be hooked !!
It really is a great night and the people are so friendly that any misgivings you may have will quickly dissapear.
Have a good one and remember to say hello.
I promise not to gawp redface

It's often a mood thing I think. Sometimes you're in the mood to chat, to contribute. Sometimes you just want to be quiet. Absorb what's going on without sticking your head over the fence.
Sometimes - wrong time, wrong subject, whatever - a post gets a load of unkind responses and that puts people off posting.
Don't judge people by the amount of posts they contribute.
Jezzay.

I am looking forward to meeting folk atmy first Munch in a few weeks time and going from "virtual" to real! lol

Am I nervous? - Well yes of course! First day at the new school syndrome and all that
Am I worried? - NO!!! - I live here and if I do not like people, their behaviour, or what may/may not go on then I simpley go home and put it down to another tick in the task book of life! :lol:
I would like to say however that I am only now seeing the amount of work that goes into organising these events and the rest of us potential attendees should remember or understand this and say a big thank you to those organisers.

My first Munch was at Notts and I was scared as hell!
As a normally shy person (with people I'm not familiar with), seeing all these new people just scared the life out of me (am I putting you off yet?!) and it took me a little while to feel like I fitted in (could have been the alcohol that contributed to that) but I had a fantastic time, met loads of nice people (in fact, everyone I spoke to was nice!) and made some friendships along the way.
It's always going to be daunting when going to your first munch - hell, I'm still nervous and Leciester will be my second!
I guess it's a bit of the unknown and for me being scared that I'll just be sat in a corner all night with everyone knowing each other and me not knowing a soul.... I still feel like that at times but you just have to enjoy it, speak to people (they may look at you like you're a bit mad but that'll pass once you've bought them a drink lol

) and have fun.
Believe me, the night goes so fast you won't remember half of it! Just enjoy it for what it is - a chance to meet people face to face in a friendly environment.

Too true.
You are enjoying yourself so much that the time just flies by!!
I never seem to get to talk to all the people that I'd planned to either, so I'll be the whirlwind at the NE munch, racing round trying to get to say hi to everyone biggrin

(if I've missed you, please say hi to me!)

been good to get some input from the folks on here, so thanks to everyone who's posted with help and advice, we are looking forward to NE Munch 2, so to see you all in the flesh will be great, in case you miss us il be the tall,useless lump on the end of rach's arm wink

I have just spent the last few minutes reading through all the points that everyone has said. As a newbie to the site and a long way off, of going to a munch the points you all raise are of true value and I have taken them all in. I to would be scared of entering a place with people I don't know, and I'm use to speaking to people of all nations and nationallities. I hope when I get my first invitation to one, the idea that Postie mentioned to help the newbie is still around.
Thank you all
