  1. !vancouverbronies Okay, my stance on the whole meetup thing, hopefully a little more fleshed out. Pros to weekly meetups: we get to see each other more often. Cons: there are only so many places to hang out, so we'd probably end up needing to stick to 1-3 different places, so it could honestly get a little stale, especially if they lack proper structure. We likely won't be able to do something like bowling or whatever on a weekly basis, due to cost (and I certainly can't afford more than 1-2 Vancouver trips a month, but that's irrelivent in the big picture). In my limited experience, meetups that aren't booze-oriented are best-suited for actual venues with some infrastructure, such as the bowling meetup on October 30th. I'm really not sold on the whole meetups at houses thing unless we plan on getting mangoesed. Please don't take this as gospel either; I'm just stating my opinion on this. Please note that I'd still be of the "monthly over weekly meetups" position if I lived in Van.

    1. @garyoak !vancouverbronies The point of these is that they are optional meet ups, that are just going to be there (on at the looks of it) every saterday, kinda like a club, meeting at the same location. I have noticed very few new bronies show up that arnt freshly joined so I am trying to create something that isnt goal oriented for the wall flowers to come to (hello if your reading this btw), they are just for chatting and probably wont be as long as other meet ups either this is more of a social get together. that just happens to have people who like ponies, I am also going to point out sport teams and hockey clubs as examples of weekly meets that work.

      1. !vancouverbronies @echron1000 I see. So that begs the question: will there still be "actual" meetups every few weeks?

        1. !vancouverbronies yes thats one of the things that I think should stay this is not quite a meet up I am creating but an excuse for bronies to get together and is technically less formal then the large meet ups, ( technically because who the hell is formal these days) I Though I had stated as such. @garyoak also @tophat is a pink and blue one is like flootershies
