Following up after accepting an offer

Accepted an offer from a BB about a month ago and was wondering what the etiquette was to keep in touch with the group. I've heard some people say it is important to keep in touch with the group in the months prior to the internship, others have said to not be a pain in the ass and just chill. 

The group itself is pretty relaxed from what I've seen so I don't want to come off as an intense hardo-kid. Is there a rule of thumb to be followed? What have you guys done in the past?

Please...don’t bother the group before you get there. Maybe 1 month out send quick intro emails to the team to let them know that they can pass work off to you soon (get them familiar with your name early) – but at any point before that you’re just taking unnecessary time out of their day. They can’t make any use of you u til you are on the job— there’s more than enough time to network meaningfully during your internship (received a a return offer from MS this summer virtually)

You don’t want to come across as an obsessive loser. There is a certain etiquette.

I would just send a stripper-gram to their office around lunch. Have the stripper write your name and phone number somewhere provocative. This will impress your peers and superiors and establish you firmly in the psyche of your future office.
