A relationship with the NotaClub Social Community is NOT a 'spectator sport'.
|
|
|
|
While there are generally about
50 people
wanting to 'join'
at any time
NotaClub
does not actively seek new 'members'
(i.e. we don't try and 'talk people in to 'join' NotaClub)
because people who 'join' who have no intention of forming an
active
relationship with the NotaClub Social Community add no long-term value.
But ...
NotaClub
ALWAYS welcomes and ENCOURAGES new people
who
wish
to join us and
participate
in our many
'good fun and good socialising'
activities.

Before you begin -
a 'Heads-Up'
NotaClub is NOT a 'CLUB' so has no 'members'.
NotaClub is simply a COMMUNITY of like-minded people who actively
PARTICIPATE
in it's many activities.
which are conceived, created and hosted by members of it's community
for the purpose of 'good fun' and 'good socialising'
1. You can't be 'half'
a NotaClubber.
'Half' NotaClubbers are people who treat NotaClub like a resource for their 'ad-hoc' amusement and just occasionally come to events when they've nothing better to do.
(NotaClub is not something you can just 'join', then sit back and leave it to others to 'let it all happen'.)
2. You can't 'stand outside NotaClub looking in'.
NotaClub attracts people who 'add' to our events by their participation, communication, laughter and sense of fun - who are generous with their contributions to our good fun and good socialising activities,
not just come to be entertained by them,
then leave without anyone knowing they came.
(if everyone who 'joined' NotaClub did that, then, ultimately, NotaClub would cease to exist.)

This is the

of how to start your relationship
with NotaClub's community of 'socialisers'
|
|
|
|
|
|
The NotaClub 'online' social system(s)
(yes, there are two)
NotaClub 'public'
and
NotaClub 'private'
are housed on the servers of a U.S. web-based 'social networking' system called 'Meetup'
While 'Meetup' likes to 'brand' groups that use it's system as 'Meetup' groups. NotaClub is NOT a 'Meetup Group' and PAYS 'Meetup' to use it's online 'social system'.

NotaClub 'public' can accommodate people who wish a more ad-hoc relationship with NotaClub.
NotaClub 'Private' has an expectation of a higher level of activity and participation.

Come to some of NotaClub Public's 'open' events (that anyone can come to).
You get to meet with us, we get to meet with you. We all get to decide whether we're 'each other's type of people' in a casual environment.
Wednesday nights are particularly good for finding out about upcoming 'open' events that may not be listed on the NotaClub 'public' calendar.
If you find out about an event you'd like to attend ask the event host for an invite and you're 'on your way' into NotaClub.
If you haven't done so already, read about our open events HERE.
On the assumption,
(ultimately), we ALL decide we ARE 'each other's type of people' and you decide you'd like to form an active relationship with the NotaClub social community
in it's future activities - you'll need to get a
current 'NotaClubber' to advise the NotaClub organiser.
|
Potential 'NotaClubbers' need to demonstrate an ability to mix and mingle socially and a desire to be 'active' in the future and ADD VALUE to our
'good fun and good socialising'
activities.
Don't be too concerned about this - there's no rush. Take as much time as you need to 'settle in'.

How to get 'IN' to NotaClub 'private'
(and you really DO ... it's where our 'private' events are posted)
Once we all agree you 'fit in'
(and you agree you WANT to participate with NotaClub 'private')
you'll be provided with your own NotaClub account which will allow you access to the NotaClub 'private' website, it's member list, private calendar of events and communications - and you're 'on your way' to loads of 'good fun and good socialising'.
