I feel like we need an Apocalypse plan.

Re: I feel like we need an Apocalypse plan.

  • I'm attempting to sign up for the new board, but apparently PB wants to test my Norwegian first. :P

    To any fledgling web designers, pleeeeeeease don't assume that just because someone is using a machine in a certain country that the person speaks the language. Auto-translate is nice and all, but if you insist on translating part of an otherwise English website, give an option to view it in the language of the rest of the site! (Google is terrible about this too, btw)

    Are there whisperings that this board is going to die or something?  
    Not that I know of, but I'm paranoid because my BMB disappeared from The Bump a year or so ago. We had already moved to FB during The Great Migration, but someone went to look at an old post and it was just gone. 

    The Powers That Be have been entirely absent for a long time, making me think that the forums are in no way part of The Nest's overall plan/focus. 

    It's just a back up plan.

  • I could totally be wrong, but I feel like I remember a few NBCers going to the PBs and bitching about how awful we are and how glad they were to escape us.  That was the end of my interest.
    Yup.

    @SusieBW - It really was! The entire Married Life board and Current Events board left. Everyone. It was nutso. I enjoyed PB for a while, but the Book Club board is dead and the ML has so much drama and bitchiness.
    Was this a few months ago?  I was on maternity leave and my BMB group on FB was completely flipping out about the whole Bump drama.  I'm glad you guys were still here when I got back from mat leave!
    The Nest Great Migration and the Bump Great Migration are two different events.  The nest happened in 2012 and we are pretty much all that is left behind. The Bump migration happened in January.  It was 2 very different reasons for the migrations and the bump mods have gone crazy.

  • There is also a book board on the bump offshoot if we were just looking for a "nice" emergency plan, although  we have already made a board so I guess that is a moot point.

    I post on the gbcn boards some and feel much more at home there but the nest has made me uneasy for years now with how they just get rid of boards. They got rid of the BMB angelashly and I were on with zero warning. I'd personally love to move elsewhere but like this community and want to stay apart of it.



    That was a sad day. I went to get on for the day and it was gone.

    I do pb for the board I was active on for thebump so I'm down for wherever
