    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.

    Sorry to rain on your parade OP, but how well do you know people?

    Having had first hand experience of having been stalked after a meet up through another site - it is not a good idea.

    I have organized meet us via a friendship site and have never had a problem. As with anything you take a chance, but i think a day time picnic in a big park is not as much of a problem as meeting up in my house...

    but i do take your point and i would take seriously any possible risks. Im happy to do something if enough people would like to meet.
