On the Horizon 2023: Public Zoom Chat

Hi @Jimmy welcome to our awesome Forum :smiley:

To send a PM to someone just click on their profile pic and a new screen will appear with a blue message box in it. If you click on the blue box you will then be taken to another screen where you can type in your message. Once you are done just click on the blue message box that will this time be at the bottom of that particular screen and your message will be on itā€™s way to itā€™s lucky recipient.

Update: Iā€™ll Join - I hope itā€™s Not too late :grimacing:. I just checked the time conversion from EST to EET.

3 Questions:

How often are those (Public or non public/private) Zoom meetings (if I miss this one)?

What is the time limit until we can still ask/make an appointment?

Also, what if I say that Iā€™m in, yet I canā€™t participate in the zoom call? :confused::sweat_smile:
Is that a (big) problem?

Thank You.

Also this.
Will there be a recap?

Oooh, we gonna have a packed house! Iā€™m excited.

A recapā€¦ probably not. People here can recap if theyā€™d like. Itā€™s just a discussion on where we all are and moving forward. No huge announcements so donā€™t have expectations like we are about to show some field trailers :sweat_smile:

Just catching up with you all. At the end of the day, this is a community and I find it much more effective to connect directly.

As for how commonā€¦ I donā€™t suppose so. But there might be a variation of this that is more common, coming soon.

A few minutes before the event, Iā€™ll still be sending zoom links. So up to the time limit. Technically, if you are a trusted user and you ask someone thatā€™s inside for a link, thatā€™s okay too. I would post the link publicly but that could possibly lead to some anonymous no gooders.

(Iā€™d still add people who donā€™ participate much so lurkers are welcome. Itā€™s just best if you pm me first, cause that way, I can mitigate potential issues)

If you canā€™t participate and just want to listen, thatā€™s fine as well. It can be like a little podcast in the background.
