MetaTalk is the perfect place to ask. There is even an entire category dedicated to it.

There are a few reasons why MetaTalk threads are closed. The main reason is for threads with very specific requests -- typo fixes, double post deletions -- that don't require additional discussion once the problem is solved. These can often be resolved more simply with an email or IM to an admin. Sometimes a thread duplicates an existing open MetaTalk thread, devolves into noise and/or a trainwreck, or was a joke thread to begin with. Very rarely a MetaTalk thread will be deleted rather than closed.

Meetups are when people who know each other from MetaFilter get together in real life. The meetings are usually pretty informal, and happen all over the world. Often these meetings are heavily photographed. There is a special MetaTalk category for meetups and they're listed in the sidebar on MetaTalk.

Meetup threads stay open for six months so that people can use the same Meetup thread for posting links to photos of the meetup or follow-up comments. There is a feature in Meetup threads that allows users to link to photos of meetups. When this option is used a little icon of a photograph shows up next to the meetup location in the MeTa sidebar.

Here is the a link to the Contact Form. MetaTalk, IM and email are all good ways to get through to the site admins in a hurry. Finding one of them on chat is the quickest way to get most problems resolved. Do not use MeFi Mail to get in touch with an admin in a hurry.
