Wow - just spent 30 min trying to get on the zoom call to no avail. Used the link above - when that didn’t work, I clicked on the link and created a new topic (twice) and it still did not open the call for me. WTH? Frustrating way to start the day.

How can I join this event? I have been trying for 20 minutes already

It’s all text based here on the forum, there’s no Zoom or live video/call. You just post your questions and read answers right on the forum AMA board

I read the instructions (and followed them over and over) but missed #4 that it was text based. Thx again.

No problem @SuzMcQ! As long as you post a question in the board Greg will be answering them. You can also check out other members questions and learn from them. I hope you enjoy the AMA!

Thx so much, Jacqui, but this is truly awful. I’m on the page. Can’t find any answers happening in real time. I’ve spent almost an hour trying to figure this out - why not a simple zoom call? The last thing I want to do is sit and read more answers when I’m on the computer all day, especially when I’m having to hunt for these answers. I’m going to have to bail, but thanks so much for the opportunity anyway. Apologies for being cranky. It makes me think Greg is just pumping out AI answers to the questions.

@SuzMcQ thanks for your feedback. We’ll take your suggestion into consideration for future events. For this one, I can assure you I won’t be pumping out AI answers :slight_smile:

Thanks, Greg. I tried again, but I don’t see answers to questions. Augh. Very frustrating. I would have loved to have heard your answers but I can’t keep looking around. I’m decently tech savvy, so this is perplexing. Thx again.

@SuzMcQ I’m about to hop in and start answering. You haven’t missed anything. This will take roughly an hour. Thanks for your interest!
