I'm honestly pretty disgusted with TB right now. Seeing how they're "handling" it is pretty infuriating. I ultimately want to be where everyone is, but I feel like a hypocrite posting my 24 hours of silence and then jumping right back in. My feelings are very mixed about it

I also really liked Parenting. I lurked only, but they were a big part of my TB experience, same as the old SAHM board. I kind of want to be where the excitement is. Ultimately I'll go where the bitter snatches go, but I'll be sad if it's back to TB.

I was really divided all day, but then tonight I started reading the discussion thread by Bump Admin and I'm just really disgusted. I don't know if I can continue to support a website that cares so little for this community.

I'll probably be at both places, at least for awhile. There are some nice women still over there who need advice and support, and a few whose story I was following that I don't think made it over here. I'll probably be more active here, though.
One nice thing about a bigger community it is that there's a greater chance of someone having been through an experience you're going through. When I had an ultrasound scare a few weeks ago it was actually very reassuring to hear from a good number of ladies who had been in my shoes.

This is me. IDGAF about their rules/guidelines/TOU but they don't care about the people that made their board successful. I don't want to support that at all

I'll be doing both more once I get internet. I have used like 2gigs of data in the last few days on my phone trying to keep up with it all. The bump will owe me $15 if I go over my data plan.

Yay! Glad to hear that... So you're getting settled in the new place ok? Liking it so far?

I'm straddling both right now. I've got a lot going on, but I want to keep in touch with everyone especially if people are bouncing back and forth between both boards.
I'm struggling...all these newbs are coming out of the woodworks and posting/asking the dumbest shit! If it doesn't bounce back pretty quick, I probably won't be going back....I mean seriously, Random old posts are surfacing again!

Yes I love it, being here I realized how depressed I was at the old apartment. It was a basement/ground level and so dark and gloomy, I never got out of bed before noon. Since we moved in I have been so much more productive in the last 4 days than I have been in the last 4 months!
I still have a lot of unpacking/sorting/weeding out to do but it's coming along!
They sound like a terrible ex boyfriend... "Things will change baby, I swear". I also think they're making it clear that they're not done weeding out the "bad apples"

Yes I Agree.. for some reason they are bothering me more than ever before! Its like they waited and than came out all at once.. Im overwhelmed!
I have made up my mind. I am staying here primarily, but will jump in over there with a little dose of snark and/or sass when needed. I tried posting like everything was cool, but it made me feel icky.
Besides, I really like that this has a night-mode on the app version
I'm doing both, for now, because there are some faces over there that I think could become good members. And I'm not letting trolls have our board until we're damn sure we're done with it and burn the bridge, etc, etc. And like lupineaura I think there's something to be said for a large group when you're trying to find out if anyone had had your experience. But TB could very quickly piss me off enough so that I won't be back.

I'm doing both for now. It's a bit of work, but I also have major FOMO! Like others have said, I'll probably stick with the majority because this group is what matters to me (or I wouldn't have come over here in the first place), and I also don't want to just let the trolls take over unless the bitter snatches are well and truly finished with that place. Happy to have this place established in case the rest of the impending "changes" are the final straw!
