Roxi,

Some valid points were raised about exactly what is being accomplished in meetings that could or could not accomplished through the forums. Lately, when I have been able to be on for meetings, I've told officers that they are excused from attending, unless going in my stead, since having two reps for each guild just adds more potential stress.

At the very least - timing points and counterpoints has been helpful. And you're right - once the foundation's been laid, meeting will be quicker and done.

Capping admission and looking to clear dead weight was also talked about last night and I think a very positive step.

For events... we should look to another thought. Don't schedule them to be AFTER a meeting - since no one know when that will be and many of guild just leave the event areas and go back to doing something else.

The EVENT should have a concrete start time. This means a meeting before hand may have to wrap or perhaps events should be scheduled for another day.
