I’m curious about what is socially acceptable when it comes to inviting yourself to events on facebook that you don’t know anybody. Obviously I wouldn’t invite myself to something where it sounds like there inviting their friends like a farewell.

But if the event is set as open so anyone can join, does that mean it is acceptable for me to join? Or should I message the owner/creator of the event. The main reason I ask is that sometimes there is stuff on that sounds fun and if I have nothing to do then I’m keen to join along.
