Your latest update arrived a few minutes ago -- I'd like to continue getting it the same way; standard/automatic when it is updated.

Could you alphabetize it by our pseudonyms?

I have the Directory as an Excel document and can rearrange the way I want. For general mailings, I do it by city...I will send you a copy that has been adjusted by 'Handle'...I am assuming that is what you mean by 'pseudonyms'.

If incorrect, please elucidate in a PM.

Chapter Memberships

Here are the basics:

You can be a member in the state or area that is listed in your profile.

You are very free to visit and post in any chapter, but can't join.

The intent of having regional chapters is to make them regional...we have been stretching that a bit!...We can still have the same great fun, but can only be a member of home!...Nothing wrong with that.

The changes that occured today were a result of an automated membership cleanup...


Mike

Hope this Answers More

This is not about restricting participation. People don't have to be a member to post in a chapter. Its main purpose is to have membership lists which reflect the local nature of the chapter. It give us (and CLs) many advantages such as:

1. Having a more accurate picture of the number of folks in your region who are interested and/or active in the chapter.
2. It will allow us to send legislative alerts to those impacted by pending automotive related legislation, while not sending it to those who aren't impacted.
3. In regards to #2, it will also allow us to do contests, offers, giveaways, group buys, etc., that are regional in nature. For instance, if a vendor is doing a dyno day we can notify chapter members who are more likely to be close enough to actually attend.
4. It encourages users to keep their user record up to date if they move to a new region and wish to join a new chapter (you'd be surprised at how many folks don't update user records with new email addresses, locations, etc.).

We've wanted to do this for a while. Unfortunately, there is no delicate way to handle it without someone taking it the wrong way.... that's not our intent in the least. Please assure members and non-members they are all welcome to post in your chapters.
