Members are encouraged to help this group grow. This means, sharing with new friends and invite them to this group is helpful. Members should try to post fun interactive or informative posts, that members will probably like. Members can help NTA grow by creating online and offline events, but create the event on the NTA or Nebii page.
No overly gross posts, blood, gore, bugs.
No Recruiting. – We don’t want group members to take all NTA members and start their own group. We want to avoid encouraging other members to join other Facebook groups. Members in the past have abused this privilege and took 100’s to 1000s of members to form there own groups, so we remain cautious when recommending to join other groups.
No Unapproved Promotions – If you are a business owner, a sales rep, or you work for a business and you’re trying to promote your product or service, we either won’t allow it or will allow it if it’s done in a very specific way that’s friendly to and that respects our NTA members. Promoters can reach out to the Founder Matt Winters for a list of these guidelines or to get approval for a promo post matt@austinvisuals.com
No Spam – Any post that is obviously spam, a cash grab, someone advertising sunglasses, members report this.
