| − | ==U.S. State Freecycle Mod Squads== | + | === Guidelines for Joining Moderator Discussion Groups === |
| | + | To ensure timely approval, please note the following: |
| | + | #Mods working with GOA Support or NGA Support must wait until they are promoted to LM after New Moderator Orientation |
| | + | #You must join with the email address you use to moderate your local Freecycle.org group |
| | + | #Applications will be approved for personal email addresses only. These also must match the email used on the local Freecycle.org group. Any email address containing the term 'freecycle', 'moderator' or any abbreviation of these terms is considered to be 'generic', even if your name is also included. That being said, we understand that some people might be wary of using a personal address publicly for the group; therefore we can allow two email addresses per mod per group; one 'personal' and one 'generic.' It is fine to use a generic email for modding the group and a personal email address for discussion groups, provided that you inform GOA of the two email addresses you are using. |
| | | | |
| − | <BR>
| + | === Approval === |
| | + | Approval will be within one week if the above criteria are met. Please contact your GOA if you have any difficulties joining FLC. |
