Hey everyone! Member Monday is our regular weekly digest gathering and celebrating the best of our members’ content from across Just About, and as the first MM since our Elite Dangerous community launched, today’s edition is very special. Elite features heavily, but so do some of our most long-standing members. 

Let’s start with our icebreaker threads from Elite Dangerous. If you’re an Elite player who’d like to introduce yourself to the platform, here’s the place to do it, and if you’ve been on Just About for a while, please do hop into these threads to welcome our newest members and help them find their feet. 

The discussion above asks how you did get started, while the bounty below is full of things new players probably shouldn’t do! Click through for a thriving thread of sound advice and amusing anecdotes. Warning: contents of submissions may be dangerous. 

If you’re willing to face the risks then you might find yourself rewarded with a stunning view. The Elite screenshot bounty is still live, and if your submission is picked then the view may not be the only reward you get. Just remember to connect your socials and use the “submit” (not reply) button so we can verify your submission! 

The Elite Community Meet is a chance to meet fellow Commanders without the risk of widespread galactic conflict getting in the way of a good time. The 2024 event just took place, but you can check out Vingtetun's photo gallery to get you excited for next year! 

Élite Dangereuse's narrative adventures build on the Elite lore, with players being confronted with the trials and hardships experienced by humanity all throughout the galaxy. 

In our final highlight from our new community, here’s Rixx Javix and Lanah Tyra introducing themselves. If you explore the platform then you’re bound to see them around, and if you want to get to know them - and us - a little better, then the JA Community podcast - an entirely organic, member-led initiative, we love to see it - is a great place to start. There’s no substitute for a reply though!

Was there a discussion, submission, or reply you would have liked to see featured here? 

You can nominate any post made since the previous Member Monday. To do this, tag me ( Boomer ), Alex Sinclair Ford James or Rich in a reply to the post you wish to nominate, or simply share a link to the post in the replies below. We’ll take a look through the nominations, and perhaps you’ll see them appear in the next Member Monday!
