I joined the group linked above and put out a post welcoming members to our site and letting them know we are experiencing some technical issues that we are working on.
The best things in life are not things.
Don't invest more in someones situation than they are.
Persistence, not perfection, wins the race.

We have added a post in LLNOE that members can join us by going to the Visitor's Corner, making a visitor post stating they are from LLNOE and we can manually add them. MODS, be on the lookout for these folks.
