Agree. I was just thinking of editing my post above to mention that, as there have been times when other generous FTers have tossed in to either make up the difference, or help make up part of the difference.

BTW - in dinner situations it's usually a tad harder to figure out who 'shorted' when there are a lot of attendees & they've left, so no 'outing' or 'banning' there.

But would be interesting to get people's thoughts on the outing or allowing to attend events when the specific people are known. And yes I know who all the folk are in my 2 examples above, but I'm not going to out them now. It's to set up the examples & ask for other's thoughts or knowledge of policies (if any).

Cheers.
