Dawg and Bogfoot - I applaud the fact that you don't want a "real club" to happen - what ACE has going works and will always work. JUst that as it gets bigger, it will become more of a "chore" - but that's okay. This type of club is what I belonged to for many years in Vegas. Although smaller than ACE in members - it was still more enjoyable than the formal club settings. So - don't change that. Sounds like the start of something good is happening when it comes to the newbies - and that's good. I apologize if I opened a "can of worms" but if it will help ACE and the new members and future new members making it a success - then it was worth it. See you down the road at one of the funcitons . . . looking forward to it.

On the topic of new members, how about we get more of you adding your personalized welcome to the Welcome To ACE posts??? :wtf:

This would be a good start in Mentoring new members.

When I first logged in here, it was a little hard, and I am at fault also for not being active to welcome peeps as I should be. I remember watching everyone's response with the WELCOME. Warm fuzzy feeling! But the first event was akword, like everyone was with their own group. I'm a butterfly, like to meet and into myself to get to know people. I love this group for all the help they provide and once you get to know people, it's really COOL. We get busy, as do alot of other's too, but this is a very special group of people, lot's of knowledge and extrmely helpful. If your shy, well, we just better get ya talkn then. :partydance:

Hey Sean, check out Sherry's new tag line! :lol I think this thread helped, I'm sure everyone will take that extra minute to say hi to the new members during an event. Remember we were all newbies once and if you can help another new member feel welcome then your just being a good ACE member!

See, this is a great example of mentoring, apparently Lisa and Marco know Marty so it would be perfect to get in touch with him to see where he needs help with the forum and to make sure they bring him along on the next event to introduce Marty to everyone! I'm not saying Lisa and Marco are the only ones that could help, anyone can step up to get a new member up to speed on how the forum works and event introductions.....

Yup, I just noticed otherwise Lisa would have been right on it, she's always helping our friends with the computer stuff....I'll tell her in the morning.

Everyday we get someone new signing up here on ACE, and everyday most of them don't reply!

Well as Robert (wishbone) put it, we should have some sort of mentoring program here. I think it's a great idea but it's up to the rest of you to help out. All you have to do is pick a new member and try to contact them, PM's phone calls, whatever it takes to get in touch with them will do. Find out if they need help posting on the forum or using any of the forum functions like adding a sig pic or whatever. Maybe meet them for a quick lunch or a brewski and drag them along to the next Saturday lunch to introduce them to the rest of us....

It's got to be better than what we have now because it sucks having all of these new members sign up only to never post and get to know ACE!

Any suggestions?
