Hi Nibibo,

I haven't personally heard of any, I am assuming you are talking face to face type of stuff?

Generally I think these forums are similar to that just not face to face which suits a lot of people because a lot of people struggle to talk when asked to do it in front of people, everyone is different however.

My best for you,

Jay
