I did that few nights ago. I got the guy's name and hopefully he invites me.
#30 - ECCIE does not, in any way, sponsor or represent social events, meet and greets, or similar activities. On occasion, events may be announced here by our members, however, ECCIE is not associated with or responsible for such events. We are not involved with any related aspects, such as guest selection, screening, or hosting. Should members of our volunteer staff choose to participate in such an event, it should be understood that their personal involvement is of their own choice and responsibility, and in no way connected to their duties here on staff. If you are the host of one of these events, we will allow for ONE "announcement" post to inform the membership, which will be immediately locked to prevent further public discussions regarding the event.If anything it gives the pimp a chance to have his signature post one more time.
Above the eccie guideline #30
which allows announcement of an upcoming event and then bars further discussion of the pending event.
Admins have instructed me that post-event discussion of the event is definitely permitted.
As this thread does not announce or discuss a pending event, imo while it may be contrary to local "custom," which I can certainly appreciate, this thread does not violate guideline 30.

Some of the most critical issues for event planners and event attenders centers on building an invite list, maintaining that list, protecting attendees and the venues from lapses that might cause serious consequences.
Suffice to say that our social committees in Austin and San Antonio practice as much security as possible in vetting invitees as and in holding attendees responsible fo respecting event guidelines.
Every individual is thus held responsible for his/her personal actions -- and to a large degree -- reminding others attending to respect the rules or reporting rule benders/breakers to the hosts and organizers.
We've been pretty much successful in maintaining the years' long string of events using the methods above.
But, as always, each attendee assumes some obvious personal risk in deciding to attend any gathering. Or to leave if she or he feels uncomfortable in staying. Originally Posted by ck1942

It's the one that invites you that is on the line as well.
You, too, Sweetheart.
C'mon south sometime.
