General Rules for the Guest Speaker Event Forum
by Nick Melillo on Mon Apr 07, 2008 8:36 am
Overview
This forum is designed to help connect ICGMA Members with high-profile public figures in relative communities. The basic idea is an experimental format for Community Interviews where a select group of members participate in a free-flowing interactive discussion with our guest speaker.
Process
To participate, simply send a U2U request to an Administrator with a brief description of why you wish to participate. There will be a limited number of members chosen, so the quality of your application matters!
Rules
1- Post no more than three questions for our guest speaker per post. Please wait until your post has been addressed before creating any additional posts in that thread.
2- Multiple threads are fine, but please make sure each thread conforms to the following:
-a- One subject per-thread
-b- Prefix the thread subject with the guest's name
-c- Clear and simple thread titles
3- Respectful participation from selected members is expected at all times. Even if your strongly disagree with the theories or opinions of a guest, express your disagreement with polite decorum in the interest of intelligent discussion.
4- You, as a participating ICGMA member, may discuss ideas for questions and comments with non-participating ICGMA members. However, please do so via the privacy of private U2U messages so as to avoid conflicting public threads.
5- During a scheduled Guest Event, we ask that you please refrain from creating or participating in threads about our guest outside of this forum. Again, this is to ensure there are no other active threads that may be confused with ongoing threads in this forum.
6- If you are expelled from participating in this forum, it will also be accompanied by a 72 hour posting ban. Expulsion will occur if:
-a- You are abusive or insulting to our guest.
-b- You are abusive or insulting to other ICGMA member participants.
-c- You ignore the requests of ICGMA staff to alter your approach to participation here.
-d- You otherwise engage in activity designed to be disruptive in this forum.
