MUST Lions Accept "Invitations to Connect" on LinkedIn from Fellow Lions?

Written by Christian Georges Mayaud

YES and NO ... Historically, on YahooGroups, the answer was YES. However, one of the big advantages of THE LIONS LAIR our robust Lion Profiling system. One benefit is that we can now easily implement a variety specialized preference-based Opt-In and/or Opt-Out Lists. So, the new answer is -- YES -- if you checked the <I Welcome Invites to Connect on LinkedIn> Box in the <LinkedIn> Tab on <Your Lions Profile> NO -- if you did NOT check the <I Welcome Invites to Connect on LinkedIn> Box in the <LinkedIn> Tab on <Your Lions Profile> N.B., You can always change your mind by checking, or unchecking, that Opt-In Box, HOWEVER -- ... You may not be obnoxious about it, or complain to LinkedIn Management, if you are occasionally mistaken for a true Open Networker by fellow Lions and recieve a stray "unsolicited" invite. Also, it will take some time to update the downloadable invite lists, so please be patient if you change your status and it doesn't suddenly start or stop the flow of "Invites to Connect" on LinkedIn Trackback(0) TrackBack URI for this entry Comments (2) Subscribe to this comment's feed THIS POLICY IS CHANGING ... written by Christian Georges Mayaud, July 19, 2007 With the various Opt-ins new combinattions and lists are possible with different requirements Check the Connections Forum to determine the current Policy and Controversies Business Development Manager written by hetu thakkar, July 19, 2007 can i join you i am very new to this Write comment Name Email Website Title Comment Write the displayed characters

Our Registration System is fine except for one problem -- it won't send out Activation Emails with working Links.

We are not alone -- many other sites are having this same problem because we all use the same, otherwise quite reliable, registration component. It's normally a very well supported open-source component, but it relies on a Developer Community that got hit with a surprize platform update. So the developers are focused on all the problems that caused.

It will take a bit of time for them to get around to fixing it.

In the meantime, we'll switch to a manual Registration Approval Process.
