I don't like this...

I switched browsers today and don't have my little "Oct 08" bookmark on my toolbar, so I had to go to thenest.com and get here the long way so I could bookmark it again.

Well, when I found the list of wedding month boards, I noticed that some had closed folders beside them. I assumed it just meant no recent posts or something. Anyway, so I then noticed that Nov 08 board had twice the post as we did and that made me curious if they were still really active. I clicked it on and got an error - their board was closed! 

THEN I I realized that a "closed folder" icon beside a board names means just that - closed. Lots of them around us are closed now (Sept 08 is still alive) but this makes me REALLY sad and a little scared. :(

This is the link I was on:

  • I think the board is going to die out just because everyone is using facebook for posts now. I dont want this to go away!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yeah I don't want the board to die down either though recent events have  forced me to limit some items to FB I know I will post more soon here because it's just easier for me during work ours.

    I know someone who actually just had a GTG with her anniversary board (may have been Sept 08) that made me feel better.

  • they don't tell you or anything since you're the moderator?

    That was my thought... I would think they would say something to you about it. Or at least you could ask someone something, and look into it a little further?

  • That doesn't make much sense unless initially they had a lot of activity and back when they decided to close traffic had slowed down.

    We're not the most active board, but we still have daily postings.

  • Yeah, I agree, they best get approval from our Moderator before closing our board that's for sure! Lol. I think because ours is consistent it will stay open - I would think that only ones with no activity would be closed.

  • Pssht, they don't email moderators about ANYTHING. They did a little more back when it was actually 2008 and we were the "current" board, but I haven't heard from them in a looooong time.

    I did email Knot Annie after I posted this last night and requested that they keep this board live because there are several of us that check in at least once a day or so.

    Knot Annie doesn't work there anymore.  :(  She left a few months ago.  She said bye over on MM.

  • I know I'm more of a lurker, but I'll be so sad if this board closes.  I'm not part of the facebook group. :(
