Just a reminder...We are now up to 60 Members, and the directory is being updated on a daily basis...To obtain a copy, you need to email me at s2260@msn.com . Let me know if there is any incorrect or missing information.
I would also like to know if ya'll would prefer that I do a group mailing when updated, or just send copies upon request. Let me know...It's your chapter, I am just the 'scape goat'...LOL
Note: I need your email addy to send the directory to you.
Me and emmyndex would prefer an automatic mailing. I'll PM you her addy because I wouldn't want to get beat up if she doesn't want it out there.
I think I have her addy, but PM me anyways...If any member wants to provide me with info, but does not want it shown in the directory, I can accomidate that also...Just let me know!
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'.
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...
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.
