    Hi Everyone :) -- Our next Zoom meeting will focus on PD13 and PD14 -- Please join us again! This meeting is open for new attendees to join as well.

    -- We are making a few adjustments to the registration process and the way that we give access to the weekly Zoom meeting link. For those who attended last week, please rest assured that our new changes will guarantee for a pleasant and enjoyable meeting.

    -- If you have previously attended, you do not need to get tickets again -- you will automatically receive a private forum message if you are a forum member, or, if you are not a forum member you will automatically receive an email to the address you used to register with Eventbrite. The message or email will contain the Zoom meeting link, and it will be sent out 30 minutes before the start of the meeting.

    -- For forum members who have not previously attended -- please post to this thread your interest in attending, and you will be added into the list of members who will receive a private forum message with the Zoom link.

    -- For non-member forum readers who have not previously attended -- the registration process will require the answering of a few simple "getting to know you" questions before we will give out the Zoom link. Please go to Eventbrite to register for tickets and receive further instructions.


    We look forward to seeing you at our next meeting! :)

    Thank you for putting that together Kalosyni!

    To elaborate on those comments, we want to prevent more Zoom bombing so we will be more judicious on who gets the links and who gets admitted from the waiting room. Due to the zoom bombing last week, from here on if we don't recognize your user name in the waiting room that user name won't be admitted.

    We are eventually going to set up a mailing list software which will be more useful as the numbers grow, but for now we'll just maintain the list manually, so if you want to participate please be sure to let us know so we can add you to the list.

    Here is an update for how to join the Zoom meeting:

    -- For forum members who have not previously attended -- please post your interest to attend here on this thread and you will receive a private forum message with the Zoom link.

    -- For non-member forum readers who have not previously attended -- the registration process will require the answering of a few simple "getting to know you" questions before we will give out the Zoom link through email. Please go to Eventbrite to register for tickets and receive further instructions.

    -- If you have previously attended, you do not need to get tickets again. Instead if you are a forum member you should have already received a private forum message with the link.

    Or, if you are not a forum member the link will emailed today to the address you used to register with Eventbrite.

    Remember our Wednesday Night gathering starts in 3.5 hours from when I am writing this - it's at 8:30 PM eastern time. If you can join us please do, and if you have any issues finding the link, please post here or ask in a private message!

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com

What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:

  • First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
  • Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
  • Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
