[Hartwood] Fighters attendance/ event functionality rant.

[baron.james.llewellyn at gmail.com]

This is an ongoing problem in many branches. So many pages, mailing lists, Facebook pages etc with little cohesion between them.  People post stuff willy-nilly and often a lot of information is lost, especially to newcomers.

 

Every branch should have ONE location established as their MAIN information source whether it is a mailing list, newsletter or some other place. That source should then be listed on all the other out-pages so people know where to get the information that is critical to them. One example is martial groups often have Facebook pages etc and do not post their meeting/practice info to the main list so many who are not regular attendees do not know where to go.

 

Some help is on the way. An Tir now has a “Social Media Policy” committee which will be drafting acceptable usage for Social Media in An Tir. In the mean time, contact and meeting/practice information should be centralized and your branch Customaries should be updated to reflect the location and name of your main information venue.

 

It also wouldn't hurt to have a newcomer portal with direction on how to proceed for them.

Could a link to the Facebook page be posted here in case others such as mydelf who don't know where to find it can get there?

A lot of us have been doing event pages on facebook where that information
is usually consolidated.

Keep well,

I do want to put out there, to the hard-working event stewards, that I
haven't found a lack of information to be a problem, for the most part. 
I've never had to search for the info, and it is all on the An Tir Calendar
page as well.  The Games Night, being a local gathering, was not on the
Kingdom calendar, but the info was clearly put out there.  I am sorry that
there are folks who are finding it difficult to get the info, and I hope
they will find it easier in the future.

I do not know how to let people know that there is a mailing list, without
direct contact.  Though I did check, and the Hartwood mailing list is not on
the Kingdom mailing list page, as it should be.
