I had signed up, joined a few groups, attended a few events. Then last winter I just lost interest and didn't visit it for about 4 months. I tried to login a week ago only to find out that my account was deleted. Just gone. No warning or anything. I double checked my Gmail history to confirm I was using the correct address, and I was. Stay classy meetup.com. Yeah, meetup.com is a pretty sleazy site. I had signed up, joined a few groups, attended a few events.

We try and get the word out wherever we can...but without having to spend $15 a month for every site.
