She has no fucking idea what she's talking about. Or the level of people's hurt/anger/betrayal. OK, let's just rebuild and move on! Doesn't she realize all the people that WOULD have been participating in those threads are gone? DING DONG The Bump is dead.

I say we all stay here and just keep posted silence threads on TTGP until nobody is posting anymore. The XO people want the culture to change and don't care what they have to do to get their babycenter. Us leaving is giving them what they want, yet it's hard to stay when they are being assholes. I mean it's one thing to say no direct threats or bullying, it's another to ban people because they don't "fit the mold" of what you want your public forum to look like. I personally prefer the boards/threads that aren't as snarky, but it isn't anybody's right to tell eveybody how to post on a public forum. It is up to me to choose not to participate in a thread or board I don't want to.

We have a delightful bit of fuckery on S15 too - our special snowflake thinks the mods would want us to keep providing 24/7 support to all the mommys with burning questions.

I agree with this. I imagine TTGP brought a lot of views and if we keep posting the silence threads they will eventually have to address the issue. Just my two cents.

I've been wondering what the end game plan is for the regulars. If TB does address the issue, applogizes, unbans the banished, changes/updates the TOS, stops being twits, etc, is the plan to eventually go back? Or have we not really thought that far ahead?

Yeah, I'm sure XO will fold any day now. Because they totally care.

The likelihood of that happening is zero to dragons descending from the heavens wearing leopard tutus and riding rainbows.
I was just creeping on the whine and wine board (The "hit em where it really hurts" thread) and saw that LakerMama66's tweet was re-tweeted (I'm sorry if I fuck this up, I don't even know what Twitter does) by a blogger for the Huffington post, who then tweeted it to Gawker, and is now going to local media? Is this going viral?
Edited clarifying
Holy cow. Everyone with a Twitter account re-tweet. Mine will be worthless because I have like 6 friends...but for you people with a massive amount of friends, you need to TWEET!

I think TTGP should continue with silence until something is addressed. If they continue to have there heavily trafficked boards flooded with these posts they will be forced to address. Keep it up!!
I definitely think the silence should continue, we are doing it very well. Also parenting is kicking butt with getting this noticed, it is pretty cool.
While the likelihood of XO apologizing is unlikely, I think all of the measures we are taking are totally worth it, even if it does end in another mass banning. Might as well give it a shot!
I also wonder if we shouldn't all start posting threads with a different title once the 24 hr period is up tho? Which is when exactly, by the way.
