Hi, I am a newbie. I have been reading about M&G. But I have not clue what this is. Is it like a partying at somebody's house or anything else. I have no idea. Please explain it to me. Thanks

I believe it stands for Meet and Greet. A private get together where multiple providers and hobbyists can mingle and get to know each other without setting up an actual appointment. I think they are usually at a restaurant or bar but I have never been to one.

Sounda like fun. How do I get more info about this.

The first thing to do is to get verified by one of the services such as Room Service 2000 (RS2K), Preferred411 (P411) or DateCheck. This is essential because any lady in this business will need to make sure you are a legitimate hobbyist. The people who organize M&Gs also require that attendees be verified. It's for everyone's protection and evryone does it once.

You can read more on the M&G page and the Newbies page. I suggest you digest a page or two on the Newbies Board each night for a few nights at least. That will answer many of your questions.

Good luck in the hobby, and welcome aboard.
