Messaging-specific guidance

This hub stays narrow: when to use DMs, group threads, and event updates instead of forcing everything into community posts.

Split

3 thread types

DMs, groups, event updates

Each thread type exists for a different job and should not collapse into one generic chat pattern.

Coordination

Day-of ready

Supports convoy and meetup coordination

Messaging should absorb the noisy logistics that do not belong in the public event object.

Communication model

Use the right thread for the job

Public posts, events, and inbox threads each solve different communication problems. Messaging should take over when the discussion becomes operational or private.

Handoff points

Know when a thread should move out of comments

Questions stay in Community. Structured logistics stay in Events. Everything private or noisy should move into inbox threads before the signal gets buried.

Get early access

Use Messaging when the thread needs privacy, continuity, or live coordination.

This keeps Community readable and lets Events stay focused on the event object instead of comment chaos.
