An important update for all members - please read.

The following topics have come up recently, and I wanted to pinpoint a couple of things that require prior approval from a group moderator BEFORE sending in a group notice:

Q. Can I send a piece of art in a Group Notice (without an accompanying event announcement)?

Q. Can I send out a survey in a Group Notice?

A. If you want to send either of these to the group, ask a Moderator (Sasun Steinbeck or Klink Epsilon) for approval before you send it.
Failure to do so may result in a warning.


The F.A.Q. will be updated to reflect this posting.
