Government Ask to Join

Group Guidelines:

These are the Rules of the Road, the Code of Conduct, Group Etiquette, or as we call it, the "Group Guidelines.”

We appreciate your interest in our Group. By participating in this Group, you agree to follow our Group Guidelines as well as the relevant User Agreements and Privacy Policy.

This group is designed to provide a forum for the exchange of knowledge and the success of the Group depends on everyone working to maintain an environment that promotes civil dialogue between participants. As such, you agree to observe the following rules:

• Be respectful. No trolling, bullying, or attacking of other members. The freedom to express individual viewpoints is a cornerstone of our society — let it flourish and allow others to share their viewpoints.

• Be On Topic. If you have something to discuss, be sure to include it within the appropriate Topic or create a suitable new discussion topic.

• Post appropriately. Tone and frequency matter. Be conscientious about what you’re posting and how often.

• Add Value: Responses such as “Thanks” or “Got it” or “Great” do not contribute or add value to a Group dialogue. In fact, such responses can be an annoyance to the greater Group so if necessary, only send short responses to others directly.

• Contribute. Interact with other members and encourage dialogue.

• No Commercials. Reach out directly to people with offers for products and services but don’t post commercial messages in any group discussions (unless of course, it’s a discussion about a relevant topic such as “Top Superbowl Commercials.”)

• User Settings. Use your control panel and group management controls to adjust the frequency by which you receive messages and the “Feedback and Support” link for those purposes. Site Administrators will not respond to administrative requests posted within the discussion topics.

For other questions on your participation within the Group, please reach out to the Group owner or your Network Sponsor.
