As a part of its privacy policy, NoBleme will protect your anonymity as much as possible. This means that you will never be sent any emails that could be used to link you to your identity on the website, or asking you to provide your password. On top of that, automated password recovery systems can be used in a few nefarious ways that we would rather not have to deal with. With this context in mind, NoBleme decided to not implement an automated account recovery process.
If you have lost access to your account (forgotten username, forgotten password, or otherwise), the only way to recover that access is to go on NoBleme's NoBleme's IRC chat server and ask for a website administrator to manually reset your account's password. No need to worry about identity usurpation, there is a strict process in place that will allow the administrator to verify your identity before doing the resetting.
Most of NoBleme's real life meetups happen at the behest of members of our community, usually because someone is travelling to a specific country or city where there are other community regulars, and would like to use the opportunity to meet up with them.
If you are a NoBleme regular and happen to be traveling near other regulars, or would like to suggest hosting a meetup for any other reason, then start by gauging interest on NoBleme's IRC chat or on Discord. If you can get a few people interested, then make sure a member of NoBleme's administrative team is part of the conversation, as they are the only ones with the ability to create new meetups on the website.
Try to suggest meetups a long time in advance whenever possible, ideally several months ahead of time. The further ahead you plan, the more people will be able to lock that date, and the more people will be able to consider travel plans in order to attend the meetup. Obviously, if you do not have the ability to plan in advance, we can always do last minute meetups, they just tend to attract fewer people.
Before suggesting a new meetup, check that there is no other meetup already happening around that date, and try to think of the accomodations: Is there a place indoors large enough for a group of people to hang out? If outdoors, what are the plans in case of rain? If the meetup includes a meal, is there a restaurant that can be booked in advance and will satisfy everyone both pricewise and foodwise? Or would you rather have everyone bring their own food? If the meetup is over several days, is there a place that can house those who can not afford hotels? Don't worry, we are used to hosting meetups and can help you think of solutions.
We are always looking for opportunities to organize meetups, so come forward if you think we should do one!
