I'm glad I got a chance to send her thoughts before I went silent. I think silence is the right response (I tried to post normally and just felt icky) but it sucks for those who need support.

Love what you guys are doing over there, I just don't feel like posting on there at all right now - it's weird to see those that are posting on random threads like usual though. Are they oblivious, just don't care or what?

I'm guessing that's gonna be the new norm on TB. A bunch of clueless, random people looking to get their questions answered. And baby shower advice.
She's a drive by but you could still PM her support. I think the most important thing is what shows on the board. People are pissed and they should know it.

I thought the consensus yesterday was to ride out this shitstorm on TB. So I made that thread today & posted in HDBD then came here to realized no everyone I like was leaving or I would have never even started a randoms thread.

Glad this thread is here, I had a couple of questions.
I am assuming the 24 hours of silence threads are either:
A) to show support for the banned members B) protest TB C) both
The reason I ask is...aren't they most concerned about website traffic and usage? Are we really just upping the usage data for them by participating? I am happy to participate, I just want to make sure I'm on the same page as everyone else. If there is an original thread describing the protest, I would love a link

I haven't participated in this, but I think it's both and also imagine a new person coming to the site at the moment - no way in hell they'll be sticking around seeing that all of their members are pissed off. So although it is participation and web traffic which ultimately would benefit XO, I think it will hurt them longer term, and to be honest unless something happens, I doubt many regulars will stick around there so traffic will die down soon
I should publicly shame myself here for some random responses on TB today before I fully caught up on everything. I was just an oblivious little Bumpie drinking my coffee and reading through the gazillion posts. My bad! You should probably throw stones! Curious to see how all this plays out.

If you read some of the 24 hour silence threads you'll see it says because of the banned members.

I was doing it too since I thought we were going to ride it out. Don't worry about.

I was too, but then it made me feel icky to act like everything was fine.

I'm assuming we are still going to try and ride it out, right!!! Just after the 24hrs is up, so tomorrow Maybe I'm completely wrong

That's what I thought. Any consensus?
Also, just noticed that the 24 hours of silence threads are almost taking over pgs 1, 2 and 3!
One of the lurkers that BM is convinced will make for a terrific rainbows and puppies community. I give her a week before she either gets banned or bored and never comes back

Just a reminder to not respond to her ladies: you'll prove her point and make her one smug bitch. We got our awesome spot right here with the women who really matter.
