What happened to this board?

I know I don't come to the nest often, but this used to be happening at night.  Did everyone move on?

Re: What happened to this board?

  • Apparently there was a mass exodus awhile back before I started. They went to proboards.

  • They're a different message board system. You should be able to locate the old regs (who left over a year ago, actually) by googling GBCN proboards.
  • Just out of curiosity, do the proboard ladies welcome new members, or is it like closed off?

    The nest updated the boards with a new look and it was a disaster. So alot of people jumped ship to the Proboards.

    The What's Cooking board moved to a private board but the rest that moved have a public board. Lurk first to get a feel for the boards would be my advice.

    The nest updated the boards with a new look and it was a disaster. So alot of people jumped ship to the Proboards. 

    I think it had more to do with the fact that while the entire board was broken, they found refuge on the "Pampers" board on The Bump, and the Nest Gods at the time chastised them for disturbing the other board.  Which only had a few posts ever.

    I got the impression that they were willing to wait out the technical nightmare, but when they were reprimanded and run off their refuge board, they left.  Understandably.  (The book board still has posters because they could hang out on their sub-boards while everything else was broken.)

  • Yes! We are all on ProBoards and we welcome everyone.  Unless you are really an idiot and we run you off, but at first, everyone is welcome.  I don't know why  ANYONE still posts here.
