I have just finished setting up the new automated system for the AODb Community Forums! As expected, this setup comes with the limit that I cannot send Private Messages to an Alice Community Forums member. The rule that I had in place was originally to promote membership on the AODb Community Forums. The newsletter could have been sent without this rule, but now, this rule actually does serve a purpose. I can only PM people on the AODb Community Forums, so if you don't have an account on them, you can't recieve the newsletter.
In addition to the changes in the setup of the system, the signup process has also changed. To sign up now, you must click on
, and log in. Afterwards, click on
, and from the dropdown menu, choose, "AODb Community Forums Newsletter." Upon doing so, you should see
this page. When the page comes up, click on, "Join Group." You will then see a message that says you need the moderator's approval, but don't worry. Just ignore that message. If you see that message, it means you have successfully signed up!
If you are not already a member of the AODb Community Forums, you will need to
sign up here before going through the process explained above.
