So, thought I'd take a bit of the mystery out of how invitations are sent, I've explained it before but maybe it'll be more up front in an individual topic.
So, if you are new user, and you post anywhere-including topics in the welcome section you will be invited based on your first post. New users are anyone who was not a member of the board since the last chat.
Everyone else, users who have been members and posted prior to the last chat, you qualify by posting anywhere EXCEPT the Welcome section. This includes anything in the Talk TJ section including the calendar where we post birthday and holiday wishes.
Since the last chat was on April 16, 2015, the date I use for eligibility is April 17, 2015. At the time of this post 11 people have qualified for the next chat whenever it takes place. These users are:
If you are not on the list and think you should be, send a pm to the tjadmin account. I'm going to lock this thread so the updated lists will not be buried in comments, and I'll update it every month or so, that way no one can be surprised if they don't get an invite. I do not pick and choose people to invite ever, if you post you get invited, no exceptions. Well except spammers. Too bad for spammers. I do not anticipate we will do another chat until the end of the year, if possible, so lots of time to still qualify.
Okay been quite a while since this has been updated. So since we haven't had a chat in a while I thought I'd let you know that while I have tried, it just hasn't worked out. But I will try again I promise.
Next thing, the cut off date is that you had to have posted anywhere but the welcome section, on or after November 23, 2015. That is a HUGE window for posts so people that don't like that they don't get invites really need to see that it really is in your own hands whether you get invited or not. New members that post on the intro thread do qualify for invites based on that one post.
If you've never been to a chat, invites are sent via PM as soon as I have confirmed a time/date with TJ. So reading your pm's is important.
