Let's figure this out

I'm not a parent, so no parenting board for me. I'd like to stay in touch with the loss and IF communities as well as N17, so hopefully that can happen.

I also realize that "parenting" has kind of always been more of a chit chat board, but with all of my issues, I've never had any desire to venture over there.

There's a new forum being made to basically mirror TCF. People are hunkered in a few spots and I think the intent is to move to the mirror board after the weekend at some point. That's what I'm gathering at least.

So where is everyone?

I'm in the N17 PB, where is everyone else that isn't in there?

I think things are just slow right now while we're still displaced. People are working on making a new forum with everything on it again, so the BMB PB is likely temporary. Maybe. I don't know.

If any of you guys want to participate in any of the threads about direction of a future board, please do so. There is one on each forum, sterling's is bigger.

A lot of people are complaining that Parenting didn't take smaller/other boards into consideration when they made this jump, and they want to hear from those people. They want everyone to participate in the future of the forums.

Do you have a link? I'm no where but here and the pseudo temp monthly BMB board. TY.

Go to patenting and find The State O Everything 5/21 thread. Links are in the first post.

I just want someone to tell me where the hell to go. That's all.

+1.  Let me know where everyone lands, I don't feel like signing up for 100 different PBs while it gets figured out.

Come, provide your input.
You all are fighting and attacking people.
Then go away.
??

Don't realize the attacking is why people aren't flocking to that site. I read a thread while I was in the ER and it was a damn pissing contest on who could be more clever and snarky. Not the best foot forward.

Hey, maybe you should tag @thatgolfbitch or let her know that you plan on talking shit about her on another board. That's really junior and I know you're better than that.
If you have a problem with her, that should be settled between the two of you, not blasted for community input.

I don't have a problem with her. I have a problem with her pushing a site and saying people's​ voices want to be heard and then telling people to leave.

I am in different groups and there is a consistent theme from people who are speaking privately that the snarkiness and fighting is driving them away. They want people to come together but they are missing what is driving people away.

I just take issue with the way you approached the situation here. I much prefer an open airing of grievances to talking about people behind their backs.

I appreciate your perspective and don't think you should give up voicing your opinion in any of the forum discussions. Every voice deserves a chance to be heard, even if is not one people are used to hearing.

I do agree with @thatgolfbitch in that if you do not feel comfortable in the new site, no one is forcing you to stay. I would hate to see you go, as so many others have chosen to do, but what I want doesn't really matter. I think you bring a lot to this community and I would like to learn more about you and support you when you need it.

I am still seeing too much fighting on boards and that doesn't appeal to me.

I think this is just people figuring things out. Which is natural for a big change like this. People are voting on admins to head up a site hopefully everyone can be a part of. I will try to grab links.

But now there is admin voting on the BMB site? I think that is premature. I don't see it as a permanent landing spot. But maybe that is just me coming from a spot where I don't want to jump to a bunch of different sites.

No- there was no Admin voting on the site I created- fknhostile was helping me and I got sick this weekend and couldn't do anything. She reached out for additional support because even though it may only be a temporary place for some people while everything calms down, it still takes work.
