I'm growing a beard right now, too. It's not red, though.

Hi Kitson. I'm so sorry about sending out the invites a while back. I didn't mean to be a total spamming jerk. I just thought that that's what the "invite" function in the Events postings were for. I didn't realize how annoying it could be.

I promise to keep all of my events in the Events section. Thank you for being kind enough to let me know there was an issue.

Hey Ren! The admins have gotten a few complaints about the email you sent to your "friends". People don't think, when they accept an invitation (or issue one) that they'll be getting those sorts of announcements, and they think of it as spamming. We've addressed this issue more here.

Thanks so much for adding me as a friend. I love meeting artists, poets and those who really appreciate both! The art on your web site is wonderful.
