And, I'm much, much, much more shy in real life. But just the excitement of seeing all of these cool people really helped take the edge off of being a "newbie". And heck, I'll still be a newbie, too. I sure haven't met everyone yet. We don't get newbie pins....we just kinda have to be brave and friendly at the same time. xoxo

I'm not sure if you meant a specific badge for newbies, which might not be a bad idea, in addition! (sorta like "This is my 1st Meet!") But as I mentioned earlier, I'm thinking of recruiting a team of "greeters" that can start off some introductions for newbies! That should make it a bit easier, and I hope, less intimidating
