We are going to start by thanking Zest for helping while I was on a mini vacation recently. I would like to say that Zest did a great job.

Zest profile image
Zest in reply to Activity2004

Hi Activity2004 , cure , and everyone,

It was a pleasure to help whilst you were on your mini vacation (Activity), but I didn't need to do very much at all, because you have a great team, and Cure and the others were amazing at keeping things running and I think you all work really well together.

I hope you enjoyed your holiday, and that you settle back into your normal routine again.

I have read this thread through, and think you had a great meeting.

Wishing you all the best.

Zest :-)

Second item on our agenda is talking about commercial spamming and what isn't allowed for postings and comments.

xxxy2j profile image

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to Activity2004

Yes...Thru my separate post it was informed that sharing personal contact details in forum will be treated as commercial spam

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator in reply to cure

That's right, cure . No one is allowed to put e-mail addresses, phone numbers, business websites (ie.: promoting products and/or 'cures'.

There has been a lot of spammers lately that have been posting about 'cures' for diabetes when this isn't allowed.

suryakaizen profile image
suryakaizen

I'm having a problem not being able to see the other posts. Perhaps its because I hit 'Reply' and the system waits for me to write something??

Maybe. See what happens in a minute.

xxxy2j profile image

cure profile image
cureAdministrator

I am around but be bit slow due to some unavoidable circumstances...

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator in reply to cure

Okay, cure . Don't worry!

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

Third, there is some review from last month's meeting I wanted to bring up. Dealing with trying to include pictures....

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

The pictures would have to be acceptable. It is not that easy to put the pictures into the PM section, but you can try for the comments.

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to Activity2004

alternatively pics can be uploaded to some free site and link can be shared....

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator in reply to cure

That's right. But, they also have to be not inappropriate.

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

We don't know for sure if the pictures will actually work, but test the idea.

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

Luckysugar , do you have any questions?

Luckysugar profile image
Luckysugar in reply to Activity2004

Yes, I am not quite sure what are you talking about the picture. I've seen some people uploading some pictures with their posts like their own photos or some plants.

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator in reply to Luckysugar

I'm talking about trying to post pictures inside the comments.

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

cure , would you like to add anything?

cure profile image
cureAdministrator in reply to Activity2004

Nah...nothing special...

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator

We would have to try and get in touch with HU and have them put a button for picture insert.

Luckysugar profile image
Luckysugar in reply to Activity2004

Hope that would work. That would help in case someone needs to attach any pictures that appropriate and relevant with their comments.

Activity2004 profile image
Activity2004Administrator in reply to Luckysugar

Everyone can let us know what you wanted posted on the Facebook page and it can be done.

Activity2004Administrator in reply to Luckysugar

You're welcome! We need a few days notice if you or the rest of the members want to have us post something for you. This gives us time to figure out how much time it will take before we all head to bed each night.

Luckysugar profile image
Luckysugar in reply to Activity2004

Do you mean we are unable to post anything on Facebook page by ourselves?

Activity2004 profile image

You can post comments.

Luckysugar profile image
Luckysugar in reply to Activity2004

How come we are allowed to comment only?

Activity2004 profile image
