Council Meeting Summary


January 2006 First Council Meeting Minutes


In Attendance:
agravegal, Grand Librarian
durenity, Senior Monitor
mickeymab, Master Welcomer
magdal2, Activities Director
satsuki_ishida, Webmaster
jewelemarald, Treasurer
mrsmou, Council Liaison
sandystratton, Donations Shopkeeper

 

1. Ummagine Stamp
The guild has an Ummagine Stamp. There is an offer from someone outside the guild to purchase it. It was agreed to offer the Stamp to the guild members, and if no one wants the stamp, then it would be sold to a non member.

2. Furniture Shop NP donations
The furniture shop will be added to the Donation Shop’s list of supported shops. This will take place February 1.

3. Shop Trades

Donation Trades:
The council is going to hold off on allowing donation trades with members at this time. Currently, the ONLY trade a shop can make is with the donation shop. Even if no neopoints are involved, shops cannot make donation trades with members.

Avatar Items & Battle Items:
We are easing back into the trades, so our first step will be to resume loaning the Avatar Items and Battle Items. These loaning activities will take place through the trades. If collateral is required, then items are preferable to neopoints, however either will be accepted. These types of trades are only necessary in the Battle, Card and cute_chic4eva accounts.

4. New battledome item
The council agreed to purchase a Frozen Wand of Crystals from a member that would like to sell it to the Battle Shop at a reduced amount.

5. Gallery Spotlight
The Gallery Spotlight has been caught up and will resume once again under the supervision of mrsmou. Beginning in January, this activity will occur every two weeks.
