I can't figure out how to post pictures from my phone, but search @carleyroney or #thebumpfail (there is a thread on "getting knocked up"), but basically thedump amnins called us all trolls!
Oh! I can do it from the app (I prefer the website version).
I actually hate to get involved with stuff like this, but when they take it to other social medias and flat out LIE to make themselves look good, I makes me angry!
I hate how they are acting like us leaving is no big deal. Hello, we are the ones clicking refresh all day, not the drive byes. If they want the ad revenue that comes from all those clicks, how do they propose to get it? Maybe I'm clueless as to how that all works...
I may have blown up twitter with all my twats right now.
LOL.
Can someone link or printscreen or something for those of us olds that are technologically challenged and/or refuse to join the 21st century and use Twitter?

I think a concerted effort to get @scoutnumbers post (or at least the link to its google cache) retweeted everywhere would be awesome. It's probably one of the most well written and well reasoned posts on why we are all so upset and I think the Baby Guy needs to see it. forums.thebump.com/discussion/12523083/please-go-support#latest
Thank you, Google cache:
"I want to know how you - in any form of good conscience, or professionalism, or with any sense of decency - think you are being fair with the post you have put up on the Bump HQ board.
I have been a member of this site for over five years. Since I lost my first precious baby and came here, broken and devastated, to the TTCAL board. Where I found compassion, and support, and most importantly honest information about how to go forward. I stayed there through four more losses, then moved to PGAL for my two successful pregnancies. Pregnancies I spent every day of in abject terror, waiting to bleed, lose and ache again. And I thankfully, thankfully, thankfully moved on to Parenting. Where I found compassion, and support, and most importantly some good humor to get me through this new quagmire of being home all day with two children who aren't easier to parent for all the hardship in bringing them into the world.
I have offered in return (yep, you guessed it): compassion, and support, and honest information, and good humor. I have engaged in hours of discussion, and exchange, and I have made (and I think been) true friends here.
And now you have the audacity to call me a "bad apple?" To imply that my banning was somehow justified when all I did was ask why the Mods had been summarily dismissed and then expressed understandable anger at the complete lack of response to that question? When I didn't appreciate being treated with so little respect and consideration. I am the bad apple? You really think it's okay to call me names? To imply I am somehow responsible for the reprehensible treatment of this community?
You can't fix this. You can admit that you allowed an employee way too much leeway and are reaping rewards for her (and her team's) bad decision making. That's just what an decent company would do at this point. But acting like the affronted party, acting as though YOU are the wronged parties, waiting DAYS to respond to valid member concerns and then doing so by insulting us, is so offensive, there's no hope to return from it.
I'd rather be with those other "bad apples" who stood up and said "that's enough." Because it is, indeed, enough.
