Levels of membership
Is it possible to assign different membership levels?
What I want to do is offer meet ups firstly to those members who have attended 5 meet ups or more. Then, if there are any places left, offer them to the rest of the group.28 votes -
Add a statistic that counts the number of events lead by the event organizers.
Add a statistic that counts the number of events lead by the event organizers. That way, the organizer can easily tally the number of events the event leaders did in a quarter and reward them with recognition, gift, etc. This would also be a way to raise incentives for other organizers to participate more actively.

No- Shows
I would like to see the number of 'no shows' on member's profiles again. And make those no shows available to be seen by all event organizers. That would give the organizer a heads up if that member is likely to be a no show. Then the organizer has an option to let someone on a waiting list attend because of the likelihood of the first member being a no show.

Turn off the "liked your comment" email notifications
I don't remember receiving these before - maybe "Like" is a new feature? - but today I got a least three such email messages, none of which I cared about. Turns out I can't even turn them off, at least not from what I'm seeing in my account options. Pretty ridiculous of MeetUp to assume that *everyone* is interested in every single "Like."

Change the email notification from "Stay in Touch" Back to "How was" your meet up.
The email that is sent to members who attended a meetup used to be an email where you could rate and give your comments on how the meetup went. That was changed the last few weeks to an email to where you can select all who showed up or select certain individuals to tell them it was good to see you. Since this change our meetup ratings/responses have diminished greatly. I believe it would be best to go back to the old email to rate the meetup or to give comments than to allow members to send the "it was…

Create a page on the site where local Event Space providers can offer their space to Meetup Organizers.
Create a page on the site where local "Event Space providers" can offer their space to Meetup Organizers. Many times organizers have a hard time locating affordable or free space for events. This resource page would provide organizers with localized listings of providers.
This information is then used to expand meetup by allowing more organizers to find better more suitable venues to host events. This expands meetup capabilities to host more events.
I propose a page where people like myself can promote their space with a Space Profile: Photos of all the rooms, details on each space, affordable costs if…

link github account with meetup profile
I would like to link my github account with my meetup profile. The result is that people can see my linked github account on meetup.com exactly the same way they see my linked twitter account.

Show Event Host at top of RSVP List
Organizers RSVPing for a Meetup someone else is hosting show up at the top of the RSVP list. This is confusing as it makes it appear that the Org is hosting. The Event Host should be the first name on the RSVP list.

message list of the mailing list not reachable to everybody
It would be better that all the messages exchanges among the members could not be reached by anybody as now: also non meetup.com members can see everything and this is not good for privacy of our member (sometimes in their messages of the mailing list are speaking about their own private): please make a sort of button for leadership group to decide who can see the list of messages (anybody, only leadership team, only organizer/superassistant). Thanks

Banned members, reasons why banned for Organizers
It would be helpful if you gave us a comment section for when we "ban" a member. I took over a group with quite a few "banned member" and I'm not sure why they were banned from the group.
If you give us a comment section when we "ban" a member ,it will give a referral as to why we or a previous organizer "Banned" a member.It will give us some in site if a Banned member asked to be reinstated back into the group

Offer organizers stats on how often a member changes status to Not Going, a member who constantly cancels last minute as as bad as no shows
Members who constantly cancel at the last minute should be tracked by stats, and available to organizers. This has grounds for removal just as much as multiple no shows but need the stats to explain why member is being removed

"Stop being notified about conversations in this Meetup group"
It bugs me how when I get emailed about a comment on a Meetup event, the bottom of the email has a link for "Stop being notified about conversations in this Meetup group". What I would LOVE is if that got changed to this: "Stop being notified about conversations for this Meetup event." Just because I no longer want to hear conversation about an event that I can no longer attend, sure doesn't mean I want this whole group to go silent... silence just this one event, NOT the whole group.

Add a short 1-line personal comment field to the "Its was nice to see you" buttons.
The "It was nice to see you" buttons are a great idea, making it really easy to say that to someone, but they are too impersonal. It would be really nice if you could add a very brief private message to go along with the message sent to the recipient allowing it to be more personal and showing that you really mean it.

Meetup needs an app so you can easily connect to meetup from other websites....Just like facebook, twitter ect
Meetup app so you can easily connect to meetup from other websites....Just like facebook, twitter ect
Better social sharing for members and page holders to connect to others and let them know about there group....Like I would put the meetup app on my website and on my facebook community page if Meetup had an app...Then people would see the meetup ap symbol click on and would automatcially take to the meet up page that person is a member of.......More connection and better business networking as well1 vote -
Don't send emails to remind the Organizer, after all I set the dang thing up! Less emails please!!
As the Organizer of my group the amount of emails from Meetup notifying me of actions I've just made is annoying. Limiting email notices would be wonderful! Less is more meaningful.
Someone smart needs to rework the email notice system. Please!
I don't need to be reminded of every little action taken on here3 votes -
"push notifications"
Within your iPhone app, allow me to turn on push notifications for specific groups I belong to so I am instantly alerted whenever that group posts a new meetup. This would be very helpful for groups containing hundreds of members, where spots for each meetup get filled quickly.

Fix the popup that shows up next to people who have signed up for an event
The Pop-up that shows up beside people who have signed up for an event is annoying in that once it pops up there is no way to make it go away so I can't read the details of the event. My cursor quickly passing over someone on the way to whatever I want to do is enough to brign the popup up. It is way too touchy. It won't go away. I have to click on someone else to make it go away. Some peoples popups are so huge that you can't read any of the info about an event…

Extension of "Good To See You" Feature
As an extension of the "Good To See You" feature, it would be useful to have something like a "Hope You Can Join Us" to extend a quick personal invitation to group members who may have a specific interest in the event that you have scheduled. Also, a "We Miss You" would be a quick way to let members who haven't attended in a while know that we miss seeing them around. In the past I have addressed both of these issues with emails but somehow integrating this in the Meetup interface would speed this process up, especially for groups…
