Oh, and if anyone has any corrections or additions that they feel should be added to this week’s minutes, please let me know.

[Barbwire]

A note on the room for the end of year party. It is not reserved through the CSI. You have to go the the main office in VH directly to reserve the room. I will do this personally.

[Genevieve]

With the “vote on this before the new year” are members allowed in on this? Because club “donations” get an adamant ‘no’ from me personally. Actually, a lot of it gets a ‘no’ from me now that I think about it…

Why would it be considered "bad" for members to donate shows? Or do you mean the donation for art sales?

Elaborate on this.

[Genevieve]

Well, how many people do you know would donate shows for club? I think it could potentially cause black lash especially for new members to club next year. Unless I’m misinterpreting it? Then by all means, elaborate what was being talked about at the business meeting I could not attend.

[Windstriker]

Are you assuming that club would require all members to donate shows? The club should be more active in asking members if they have any shows that they could add to the library which could cut down on streaming/torrenting for future members.

Besides that, this is the first time that Miyazaki has posted minutes for our club and I think she’s done a great job. If something seems vague for those who can’t attend the meetings then asking for a little clarification first would be more beneficial than saying certain ideas are “bad” right away. That’s what a forum is for after all.

[Doallem]

I don’t see how there would be backlash… We are not forcing people to donate anything. That would be called a tax. Nay, what we were proposing was something more akin to what Jacque has done for us time and time again. She has given me on different occasions shows in digital format to put in the library. Not because I made her do it because she is a member, but because she is rad.

You are faulting a person for not elaborating on a business meeting that lasted an hour, in which productive things were discussed the whole time. For her to elaborate would cause the minutes to become a dissertation. The minutes would need a thesis, some body paragraphs, and a conclusion.

[Miyuzaki]

Sorry, Genevieve, I could have worded that better. Thank you for pointing that out. Also, thank you to lmb (Lydia, right?) for pointing out the CSI error. I will amend these and note the corrections in the minutes.
