Guide for ticket usage
I'm wondering if there's a guide for how tickets may be used by participants. I recently saw a person advertising a ticket in exchange for that person being a servant through the entire event, cooking and cleaning for a camp of 60 people. Now, I thought we were trying to get away from this kind of business, but I can't find any guides that the org may have put out that specifically discuss this kind of behavior. Does such information officially exist, and where can I find it?

I would look at the main site, and maybe try a search term like… decommodificationlexine123+ wrote: ↑Mon Aug 07, 2023 3:24 pmI'm wondering if there's a guide for how tickets may be used by participants.

Or outside services rules. The ticket terms and conditions may be the only codified ones, and a whole lot of what one “may not” and “may” do with tickets is listed there.
I agree this case was amazing in its out in the open approach. I saw that post too. To prep and clean for two meals a day, for the whole camp’s meals, is an all day job, with a chef boss, and professional kitchen skills required. This “volunteer” was offered 2 shifts off and only a ticket and vehicle pass as compensation, er “participation gift. I copied and pasted the offer in an email to [email protected]
My argument is that the ticket is being commodified as wages, and this camp is not inviting a member with shared interests, but looking to acquire a servant.
