TB Goes Up in Smoke

[sstwinklinglites]

The parenting girls are killing it with the Twitter and FB and everything else. How TB is even remotely functioning at this point is beyond me.

The TB is chaotic right now. becole - this will especially answer your question regarding being able to post on TB:


Damage Control

[becole]

Nope. They're trying to control the insane amount of posts bashing them and BM... you know, so they can better ban people.

[flockofmoosen]

Hahaha



Actually, you know what pisses me off, along with every other sane person? I was reading some of the reviews for the app after posting my own 1-star review. There were a couple of people posting about how awful the June 2015 moms were and they're just a bunch of non-supportive meanie-heads, etc. So, I go on June 2015 to check out the fun, and every post that I click on I see NOTHING BUT SUPPORT from some really nice people. There are moms going through actual hard times there and no one is judging them or saying remotely inappropriate or hurtful things, or even being sarcastic. Where the fuck do those random people come off saying that there is no support just because people are annoyed with them for posting the 10th thread about feeling/not feeling baby? So TB or XO or whoever-the-fuck they are, go, "Oh, no one thought you also deserve sympathy for BEING PREGNANT? Well, don't worry, we're getting rid of those bullies for you." Fuck them and them.

Dang!!! They are impressive! I left 1 star reviews & that is as far as I got.

I wouldn't doubt that it's TB / XO employees & interns leaving those absurd comments. I have never seen this level of fuckery, ineptitude, breakdown of business standards, what else? Dickwads. All of them dickwads.

I know! I feel like I can't keep up with what's happening fast enough, and all I'm doing is going between there and here... I can't do all they're doing. Where's the time?

[becole]

I left a facebook review too that's now been deleted. My favorite was a military mom reeming them for taking away freedoms she risked her life for.

I'm still amazed that the poster who put up the porn last night hasn't been banned. Like legit amazed.

'Cause, you know, they're doing things right over there.

Dear TB,

[SpinsOffResonance]

So I've been a terrible mom the last couple days, sticking my kids in front of the TV so I can attempt to keep up with TB blowing up. I still can't keep track!

Well people have been saying it for a long time: The Bump exists to make money for XO Group.

I think they've majorly messed that up by running off the users that make them said money.

[Doll15]

I'm still confused as to what happened but I'm following all of my May moms anyways.

[athn64]

Have you noticed their stocks dropped a few points today? This has not worked out the way they planned.

Mine is currently rolling on my lap putting her face in mine and pulling my hair because I'm on my phone reading all this lol she just said dada. Apparently I'm not entertaining enough!

[justforshow]

[bazingaa]

Lurking over at the other place. This is just funny. I need the rolling on the floor laughing emoji.

[becole]

I think they can't ban some people because these ladies are better than the it people at xo. Somebody had said before that she laughed at an ip ban because they could work around it.

[becole]

I mean whatt they failed to realize was that a huge community could band together to do much more damage than any individuals going to a BMB.

[sstwinklinglites]

I just came across this on IG & lost it. I thought, can we send this to the folks at TB / XO?

They had to stop taking orders because it went viral on Jan 13 and was overloaded with orders. I read that on parenting. Wondering if 5tons of glitter is on its way to XO

Yeah they posted 1 Direction porn. On parenting, on a BMB, on BM's wall. It was up for hours. Hours. It was reported, and said it didn't violate TOU. But the f word does?
