I went to a social event in London through CitySocializer. It was a Darts game with very down to earth, nice people, and we've had great convos and a lot of fun. Since it's for grown ups over 25, the... See more

Unreasonable to the point of being ridiculous.
CitySocializer created an unreasonable, no-win situation. Their arbitrary & unpublished rules carry immediate & irreversible results.
I was on CitiySocializer for a month. I put in the time & had many conversations prior to socials (events). I hosted events and interacted positively with everyone I met. Within a month I was awarded their badges for several of the things the site wants from a member. So far so good.
Yesterday, I send out messages inviting people to another event hosted on CitySocializer, but I also want to tell them which of the meetup members are going to the same event. Without asking them to join meetup and only pointing them to a link with the list of attendees to that event, I send out a few messages. The intention was to let CS members know it wasn't just going to be us. No one wants to go to an empty event.
Immediately my account was removed. I reread the terms & don't find it listed. I contact customer support. It turns out that any mention of meetup is a violation. I attempt to reason with customer support and explained that it is an undocumented infraction for which I received no warnings. I can abide by rules if I know what they are! But they only point me to the terms reminding me of their right to remove the account. I understand, but I figured that I could talk to and reason with a human being who realizes that this is insane. It didn't work out that way.
It is a free service, but considering their behavior, free is too expensive.
