A few quick bites from FashCon One. Just to emphasise at the top! Please do not IM or send notecards to Honey even if inworld from next Monday for 10 days – 1st to 11th October. Check her profile for when she’s back.
1. FashCon IM Helpers
I’ve asked a few people to help out with group IMs, so if you see members explaining group policy in IM, please give them room and do as asked. They have my blessing (and powers) and are doing a job on my behalf. You can always check if someone is an official FashCon IM helper by looking for their role on the group page – look for “FashCon IM Helper” – and you can IM them privately for help or advice on group IMs. But please read the FAQ first.
2. Designer Applications
I’m closing applications for new designers to join for a little while in a day or so. I’m woefully behind on the current batch and will add you all in the next few days. I think I and FashCon need a little pause now and again – we have 550 designers already and I need a break. Don’t think for a second that I’m closing applications for long. Group notices and activity will continue unabated, and FashCon will always be a living and growing group for new exciting designers to show what they can do. Watch the Apply page for when applications are open again, and please don’t IM me begging. I’m swamped!
3. Break
I’m going to be taking a break from next Monday for 10 days (1st to 11th October). I may be inworld some of the time, and FashCon will continue as normal, but I won’t be answering IMs about FashCon business. Don’t hate me for those blank windows.
FashCon star Galea Yates has offered to be group babysitter while I’m gone, and she will answer any emergency IMs you have during that time (although I’m finding it hard to imagine what an emergency could be). Please do not IM her about adding you as a designer, kicking people, and all the other stuff that’s in the web pages. And please don’t leave a ton of IMs and notecards for me! SL has rapidly become like a sizeable RL job, and I need to find the fun bit again, like shopping and stuff. If it’s an emergency and not answered in the web pages, IM me after I get back. Thanks for making my SL life a little more fun :)
Honey
