* '''Linden Updates:'''
** Update on Forums/Blogs (Lexie)
** Update on SL Answers (Lexie)
** Update on Knowledge Base (Rand/Jeremy)

* '''Resi Adds:'''

** When will transparency be introduced in forum moderation and in reasons around selection of new subforums? The latter used to be discussed at the CTUG. When will residents again have a voice (that is heard)? (Venus)
** FOR FOLLOW-UP - Show names of the new Smileys when you put cursor over them in the selection box, in the same way that the old ones do. (Peewee) No update yet - lexie

** Idea to enable giving of kudos in other areas of the forum, possibly all. Ref: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Forums-Feedback/Kudos-in-other-areas/m-p/993997 (Dresden)
** When will Lexie attend another CTUG meeting? Is someone available to take decisions? (Venus)
** Would it be possible to have a sticky notice in the language-specific forums / answers section which informs residents that a basic understanding of the language spoken in the subforum is helpful and appreciated?
*** Many residents are very helpful, answering questions of other residents. Unfortunately the provided google translations are way less helpful then one may think and cause for continued discussion.

*Moderation of the community platform
**Update please on request for a 'Mature' forum for residents to discuss mature/adult topics: e.g. relationship issues, adult consumer items sold in SL, adult/mature clubs, entertainment; linking age-verification and/or backup plan and implementation date.(Venus Petrov; for 7 Apr 2011 meeting)
**I propose that, other than obvious spam OPs/posts, anyone who RICs a post or thread must have contributed to the thread content (i.e, discussion). If one does not participate in the discussion they cannot RIC it. (Venus Petrov)
*Please remove "Registered" date from poster identification. The current date is worse than meaningless, and is absent from the basic non-customized format, so it can't be serving any purpose. If eventually SL account creation date is available instead (unnecessary), it should still only be displayed if the user selects it as an option. [[User:Qie Niangao|Qie]] 05:33, 7 April 2011 (PDT)
*Forum incompatibility with IE9 - increasing number of questions posted with no text. (Peewee)
*Update on improvements to "Answers" including: New posts "bumping" threads back to top of topic board, removal of the confusing & highly annoying "comments" system so that answers works like the other forums with posts in chronological order/the ability to quote any post/OPs able to repost...This would also fix the problem that a correct answer cannot be marked on a "comment". (Peewee)
* Change of name from "Answers" to something else ..SL Residents Q&A or whatever (Peewee)
* Does the referral bonus (refer a friend) program still exist? If so, what is the bonus and is it for a premium membership or any type? (Venus)

|agenda=

*Moderation of the community platform
**Where can topics such as the gay, lesbian, bi, TG community be discussed? What about topics of interest to SL residents but about RL issues (Off Topic?). One such recent example was a thread on Bullying. While it is a RL issue, many posters related SL experiences to it. Also, what is the preferred method of providing feedback on terms/words that are censored or bleeped when there is nothing wrong with them in context? e.g. Dick Van Dyke -- two of three get bleeped. How feasible would it be to 'forgive' all but harassment mod violations from the first week of the new forums? It was early days and, while we are still working together to improve things, it would be a goodwill gesture from LL. (Venus Petrov)
**Request for a 'Mature' forum for residents to discuss mature topics. (Venus Petrov)
**Clarification on the policy regarding linking to third-party sites, and the people that get banned for doing so.
**Why are honest opinions about feedback being moderated? (examples bitterly sweet's thread saying she doesn't feel safe on new forums, Star's thread, others...)
*Please please please can premium members have a concierge type support panel like live chat, concierge members, and even LINDENS assume we have?... Not to mention FAST access to support is often the main or only reason people have premium accounts...
*How do usage numbers for new forum environment compare with former GD?

* ''Suggestion for thursday March 17:'' what about a "Community Translators" User Group? Or that group is part of this Community Tools User Group? ''(added by'' [[User:Irene_Muni|Irene Muni]]'')''.
**Rand mentioned a CT user group coming up during the UG meeting on Feb 17
*** Yes, I was in that meeting... and I have waited for 1 month LOL ''(added by'' [[User:Irene_Muni|Irene Muni]]'')''.
* ''Suggestion for thursday March 17:'' Is there any way for translate the [[Linden Lab Official:Community Participation Guidelines|Community Participation Guidelines]]? Yes, I know: "You may access and link to this page, but you may not copy, distribute, modify, adapt, or translate any content on this page." But I think that those Guidelines must be translated. It is difficult to enforce a rule if you cannot understand the rule; if you are authorized, you can see some dialogue about this in [http://community.secondlife.com/t5/General-Topics/Translation-of-the-Community-Participation-Guidelines/td-p/723297 this thread] of the Translators Forum ''(added by'' [[User:Irene_Muni|Irene Muni]]'')''.
* ''Suggestion for thursday March 17:'' we need more clarification about the moderation of forum topics about moderation, how can we give feedback about moderation if we cannot write complaints - nicely written complaints - about the moderation?; assuming the thread is not deleted, see, for example, this: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Community-Feedback/Very-agressive-Moderation/td-p/755959 ''(added by'' [[User:Irene_Muni|Irene Muni]]'') Also, what action can be taken other than deleting the entire thread without reason? Eg, a humorous thread that had been up for over 10 hours was removed for no apparent reason. (added by Venus Petrov)''.
