You shouldn't be having second thoughts about going--I'm sure you'll be comfortable. The last one was a bit more interesting than usual hosted by that wild man armthehomeless--copious amounts of shrimp just have a dis-inhibiting effect on some people I guess. But Darbex runs a tight ship. There are often little kids at these meetings--we are fish nerds, not 1% bikers. I would hardly call it a wild party. Its nice to speak face to face with people with a shared interest. The added advantage is that you don't torture your non-fish friends with discussions of how you are planning to swap out your HO tubes this time with slightly different temperature tubes to see if it improves your plant growth. Their eyes would glaze over--ours would twinkle with interest. I love your planted tanks BTW. So what do you have to lose by coming to check it out? if you find 3 or 4 hours into the meeting some people are getting a little tipsy and it becomes bothersome for you, just choose that point to say good night. I rarely drink at these things and if I do its at most 1 or 2 drinks over the evening as I always drive myself, and I have a good time.

Thank you so much for taking the time to say all this! While I may be talkative, I'm sometimes shy at group events, and so it's a bit scary for me to think I might be walking into something that's more like a wild party atmosphere. It can be difficult to tell what's pure joking versus what's rooted in truth from comments online so I wanted to ask. I would like to meet up with others who enjoy this hobby, and what you described sounds wonderful so I'll try to go to this one.

Nick will be the one wearing a tin foil hat.

[Complexity]

And what will you be wearing (or dare I ask)?

[SunnyHouTX]

You dare not... He walks in sideways with a lean.

[tbui1178]

You dare not... He walks in sideways with a lean.

True that! He walks with a gangsta lean..

[Complexity]

Oh, now we have gangstas coming? Maybe I should be scared?

[aquabee]

Haha! We all look forward to meeting you Vicki!

[SunnyHouTX]

Oh, now we have gangstas coming? Maybe I should be scared?

Be very afraid...

Not really. He's actually milquetoast, just a very bland person in real life. Heheh.

Haha! We all look forward to meeting you Vicki!

Yes, we are looking forward to meeting you.

[Complexity]

Not really. He's actually milquetoast, just a very bland person in real life. Heheh.

Oh, yeah, like I believe that one!

Looking forward to meeting you all, as well. The fun will be trying to figure out who's who without avatars and ID's attached to you!

[SunnyHouTX]

I actually picked my avatar to make it very easy for others to ID me.
