Ticker Rant

I've been brave enough to venture over to my birth month board and now I have to vent.  Some people are just way too overboard with tickers.  I understand if you have a ticker for a child and your pregnancy, but I'm seeing some nesties with 3 tickers and a badge just for the august pregnancy.  I know it's exciting, but really, 4 tickers for one event??

  • Heh, I've ventured over there and wondered the same thing.

    I may avoid that board now, though....some of those girls just seem kinda...well, dumb.  I hate to sound mean but, yeah.

    And this is why I would go to my birth month board...for the entertainment value!

  • There is some ticker craziness on the other boards.  When I was on another board earlier this year, there was one woman who had like 7 or 8 tickers.  Admittedly she had 7 or 8 kids and one ticker for each kid, but each time she posted it took up my whole computer screen.

    3 tickers for 1 child is a bit much.

  • The August board is annoying. You gals are WAY better! So I'm just sticking to our awesome June '08 board! :-)

  • I think that the pgal board was discussing the August board earlier this week. People were complaining about a variety of things from that board.

  • I think one ticker is plenty.... I can't stand when people have several tickers for one pregnancy!  Like some people had 5 tickers... really?  Is that necessary!!!
  • I think I posted once about a girl on 3-6 that had 8 tickers. Crazy.

    FWIW, I love my BM board. We all left TB and are now on FB. Like 100 of us post on that board every day.

     

  • yeah, my birth month board is pretty lame. A lot of them migrated to FB after we had a troll initially (she's since been kicked off). Mostly I check it out to check in/on the mom's who are having complications, and one lady who's little girl has Downs Syndrome.
