It's pretty important to avoid the Broken Window effect, I think. Community Guidelines isn't a bad idea, but might be something better done on a network-by-network basis (linking to a post in the forum explaining them). In my Web Startups group, for instance, I'd want founders to feel free to announce if their startup were open for signups / request reviews... so long as they don't abuse it.

If it winds up being a serious spamming issue, then it's the community manager's responsibility to take care of that. Sometimes people don't even know they're being shameless, so a simple nudge will do the trick more often than not.

I did reach out the other group admin. My group has more members, merely because it was created first...I invited her to join the group and add to any discussion, but I didnt offer to consolidate. Maybe I will...the groups have the EXACT same name, so hopefully she will want to join forces! Thanks again!

Mike Darga Most of the lively groups I've seen so far are in the Q&A format, so I just started a group for resume feedback. So many great writers here.

Mike Darga: Good call Ryan; I'll do that. Jay, I think once people ask, social capital takes care of the answering. Getting people to ask may be harder.
