Explore Melbourne is Australia's largest meetup group, with a big social media community too. To keep everyone safe and make sure every event is a good time, we have nine simple rules. Anyone who breaks them is removed from the group, and so far that's 336 people. ❌ Not a dating group. We're here to make friends, not find soulmates, so no flirty business, please! 📵 No phone numbers. Asking for or sharing phone numbers has led to scams, harassment and privacy problems in the past, so anyone who does it will be removed. Swapping social media is fine if you're both happy to, but please don't add people to WhatsApp or other group chats. 🔞18+ only. All our events are for adults aged 18 and over. 📢 No promoting other events or groups. 😅 Give people room. Everyone's here to meet lots of people, so please don't be clingy. 🚗 No carpooling. We've had safety incidents, and our public liability insurance doesn't cover motor vehicle accidents. 💰 No sales pitches. That means no selling, no MLMs, no pyramid schemes and no "life-changing mentorship" offers. 📸 Cameras welcome, but… – please refrain from taking photos of our members for privacy reasons. 😊 A lot of work goes into every event. Please be kind to our organisers. Rudeness towards them won't be tolerated. By joining this event, you agree to follow these rules. Break them and you'll be removed, just like the 336 people before you. No second chances. Let's keep it fun, friendly and drama-free!
