Re: When will the VIMs be Up?

It's great that everyone is so excited to volunteer, but in my experience, volunteer retention is highest when the number of actions to sign up is the lowest possible. I would rather have a complete, working VIMS that was released later than an incomplete VIMS open sooner that forces my volunteers to sign up three separate times. Once open, all you will have to do is go in once, select your event & role preferences, and you're done. Any more steps than that and I have lots of incomplete entries, frustrated volunteers, and open spots.

Because of this, I am more than happy to wait for VIMS to get to that point. Trust me, there's still plenty of events that need volunteers, and there are still spaces available!
