Hey all,

Due to complaints on the events system functionality, I would like to take some time to gather feedback.

Please take the time to read this post and reply with your thoughts and concerns.

Thanks,

Carl

Hi All,

While many of you are familiar with Steam Group Events, there are likely many that haven't been on the creating end of them. As previously mentioned(a lot, I'm sorry!), this feature is open for usage to all members. I'd like to stress this feature as an ideal way of getting a group together as, when used properly, it can be a fantastic resource to do so.

When you are on the group home page, you'll notice that there is a list of events on the right hand side bar, like so[i.imgur.com]. This list the upcoming events that the group is having. You are free to click on any of these events to view the details, leave a comment, and join in.

At the top of the page you have an events tab. This will bring you to the full list of upcoming events. In addition to the functionality that you have on the main page, you can view upcoming events for future months and even create your own! This is the part that we're going to be focusing on.

Creating Your Own Events

This is, I think, the best feature about this group. It allows you to tell everyone online that you're interested in playing a game without having to sift through the many, many members. It let's you schedule games for both the near and far future, in twenty minutes, or even immediately!

To do this, follow the below listed instructions:

1. On the events tab, select press Schedule an Event[i.imgur.com] button. This will bring you to a screen like this one[i.imgur.com] that allows you to fill in your event details.

2. Fill out your event details like so[i.imgur.com]. Be sure to select the Play a Game event type! Input the time that you would like to play and hit Create Event. Steam will automatically send out a notification to all online players once your event time comes around! In this example, I selected the Now option so others know that I'm ready to go and looking for a quick match.

That's it! Your event has been created and you're ready to go.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to give a thanks to all that have joined up. I look forward to playing with each of you at some point in the future! In the mean time, please make use of the events function as much as necessary. I think it will be a great way to get a quick group together and, without restrictions, will be easy to use for everyone.

Again, if there's any feedback or anything I can do/add/change, please let me know!

Lastly, invite your friends! The more we have in the group, the more people we all have to play with!

Thanks guys,

Carl
