Just a reminder before we get the registration process going:
I will be communicating with people interested in registration via the DIS Private Message (PM) system (it's the little envelope symbol on the new blue DIS menu bar on the right side next to your user name when you are logged in). Some people for some reason do not allow others to create a PM to them. I have encountered this in the past - when I list the names of who will receive a PM that I start, when I type their name a dialog box pops up that says "so-and-so is not accepting PM's" or words to that effect.
Thus I am posting here, now for posterity, to check your settings if you want to receive a PM regarding the registration process before we kick it off. Here is how you do that:
- Click on your user name on the blue menu bar on the right side when you are logged into the DIS
- Under the "Your Account" menu bar choice, click "Privacy"
- On the section "Allow users to ... " are several choices
- On the choice "Start conversations with you:" make sure you have chosen the "Members Only" option.
- Save these changes.
@Boomer1 / Krista, I need YOU to do this (and others if you are in doubt as to your own status, check it). And I'm not going to start doing email - going to keep everything in one place here on the DIS (trying to keep things simple). Also, I don't know if the old rules carried over to the new DIS software, but you used to need 10 posts to be able to send a PM (10 posts anywhere on the DIS not just the camping forum). If you don't know your count, click on your user name on the blue menu bar while logged in and check the number of "Messages".
As a reminder early next week we will start the Early Interest Priority registration. I have a list of DIS users who will be in that first wave.
Have a great weekend!
