Every so often we see posts that express frustration about moderation on MIP, what can be posted and what can't, what literature can be discussed, whether we are WSO approved and so forth.

I was made a moderator and not really given a set of "rules" or told to go to business meetings etc.  I just got on here and tried to do the best I could.  Every so often I look at the business meeting minutes, would have good intentions about attending but would miss them yet again... 

The light bulb has gone on for me.  I need to attend these meetings if I want to be part of the group conscience.  Just posting my opinion in various threads is not going to make a difference. 

The next business meeting is in a week.  I plan on being part of it so I can have some influence on what I want our group to be.  If I am not part of the group conscience, I have no room to complain about that path we are taking.

Big ah hah moment for me.  Just thought I would share.
