Uncomfortable experience at an NBGC board game meetup
I recently attended an NBGC (Nagpur Board Games Club) meetup and had an uncomfortable experience with another attendee.
There was a guy wearing a black shirt whose behaviour throughout the meetup was repeatedly irritating and made several people uncomfortable. He was being overly familiar with some of the girls and repeatedly staying around them even when they didn't seem interested in interacting with him.
A few of us tried to make it clear that his behaviour was making people uncomfortable, but he continued.
What concerned me most was that the people organising the meetup were aware that some attendees were uncomfortable, but the situation wasn't really addressed.
I understand that meetups are social spaces and everyone has different personalities. However, when someone's behaviour repeatedly makes other attendees uncomfortable, I feel the organisers should step in and set some boundaries.
I'm sharing this because people should feel comfortable and safe when attending community events.
Has anyone else experienced something similar at an NBGC meetup?
