SS**** Posted 6 hours ago Which one would you prefer for a first time? Go to a play party and meeting someone? Or meeting someone through an app?
to**** Posted 5 hours ago On an app for sure you can get to know them a bit and hopefully they're not bulshiting you!
Mo**** Posted 5 hours ago Most play parties I have found using apps. The challenge is getting personal meetings but when they happen it usually is worth repeating when possible.
ld**** Posted 5 hours ago personally, i have done both. but i ‘meet’ a lot of scammers on here. at munches and play parties you can find real ppl. no scammers. maybe fakes or noobs like me. there is a lot available in S FL. were lucky. get out meet ppl.
ga**** Posted 5 hours ago I would say a large majority of people on apps are here out of curiosity and never intend on meeting. I helped plan events, parties, etc in the Atlanta area for 8 years, we would have 60 people respond to the event and 7-8 would actually show up
du**** Posted 2 hours ago Does one have to play at these parties though? Anyone ever just go hoping to make a connection? Or go and not be interested in anyone or vice-versa?
Da**** Posted 2 hours ago I would say both .. But I have met more people in play parties who actually became my partners

Or go and not be interested in anyone or vice-versa? there's no obligation to play - and while pick-up-play happens, going with a view to get play is often folly in itself.
ey**** Posted 2 hours ago Particularly when I started - most play I did was at events and/or people I met there. Mind. Whilst not never, it was rarely I would go and the end up playing with someone I met that night - it was all people I'd met at prior munches or play events (and often we'd be friends on a site like fetlife or here which furthered interactions) : I guess some of the pluses are that : you know the person is real and turns up: they're there. You can both check each others vibe and be sure you want to do whatever. It doesn't have to be *that day* since you'll both be at a future event. Add in also, that, while some stuff shouldn't be taken for granted, if you do play at an event there'd typically be everything like a first aider / first aid kit, dungeon monitors to help if anything goes wrong and other people so on.
pleasuredomnewbie Posted 2 hours ago I've met a few so far through the app and I'm still in touch with all of them. But parties are not off the table for me. I'd just prefer to know ahead of time if I'm going to want to pursue anyone while I'm there. Otherwise it would probably feel a little awkward. I'm mostly here to build one on one connections with individuals, not so much with the community in general. If I had the time I might approach it differently.
