Turn off TVs, etc. in the background to prevent background noise or turn off your mic until it’s your turn to speak.
PLEASE respect the traditions and do not take screen shots, etc. of peoples faces and names–even for the court. This is not only a violation of privacy, but the principle of anonymity.
Be aware of your surroundings and try to participate while you are at home or a private place. (We wouldn’t conduct a meeting in the middle of Meijer)
This platform encourages cross-talk, but please resist. Zoom will only pick up one voice at a time–and it shuts the other person off. Talking in unison does not work.
If you must get up and dance or something, so be it, but please turn off your video. It is still disrupting a meeting and you wouldn’t do that in a live meeting.
If you must get a paper signed, I would suggest writing the meeting ID in. Providing signed proof for the court will be difficult under these circumstances. Please refer your PO to westmidistrict3aawebmaster@gmail.com if he or she has questions or concerns.
You can “rename” yourself when you enter the meeting if you want to protect your anonymity.
Some meetings are back-to-back so please finish on-time. Thank you.
