Sorry for the second email, but I meant to add:

I have no idea how the "removal" and "re-adding" of members will affect your dues payment history.  If the system indicates you must pay dues before you RSVP, and you have paid dues in the last year, please let me know, and I will be happy to correct it for you.  I keep a written log that's hacker-proof!  Please be patient, since I can't do this at a moment's notice (which may be a problem if you try to RSVP for an event minutes or hours before it begins).  Hopefully your dues history was restored, but we will solve any issues together.

Thanks,

Scott
