Should we...

set up our own private board? I can set one up in a few minutes that's hosted on my website. I kind of like the privacy of the bow, but I want something like that with you ladies! :) 

Especially since that way we can knock out GTG stuff, and not get harassed every so often about taking this board over. 

Just let me know, if you'd rather not, that's fine! 

Re: Should we...

  • I'm totally torn.  I really would like the privacy, but I don't want people to think we're snubbing by having our own private board for this group.  Which really isn't the case because everyone would be able to join in my opinion.  Why can't TN just give us our own damn board! haha.  I'd be up for either.  I know Laura would love to have a private one!
  • I kinda feel like maybe we should. I decided I am probably not gonna post on the Bow, and I obviously want to keep this going with you ladies, so it may be best if we do that. I think it would be less trouble in the long run to set up a more private board. Plus, the other day I remember Lola had something she wanted to confess but felt like she couldn't here because it's not private...maybe this would help eliminate people's worries too about posting certain things.

    I am good with either though!

  • I wish we could get a dw tn board.  

    *YELLS to TN mod whoever you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

    I don't mind a private board but I've also seen them go down in flames.  So.....I will let you guys make that call.  

    * I do think we should post this on DW as well.  Those girls should have a say if they want to participate.  

  • Whatever you guys want to do is fine with me :) I like TN... I wish we could get a DW board on here.

    Sorry I wasn't trying to harass, just wondering.

  • Oh no, the comment wasn't about you! :)

    We recently had someone come over and try to start a fight about us stealing the Alaska board :( We were only polite to her and invited her to join in as we did with you.

  • Well if we want to stay here I will try to figure out who the mod is.  We can get all the DW knotties to email her.  If not I won't bother. 
  • I found this email addy if we want to stay.  feedback@thenest.com

     

    Pam the bow is the private board the ND nesties finally went to.  A lot of us aren't going to move over there so there is talk of creating a private board.  Everyone would be welcome.  It's bc TN won't give us a DW board.

    Are you ladies referring to the Destination Weddings board on The Knot? What would you wish to call the new board, if they do create one for you? DW is not exactly a "Nest" theme, know what I mean?

    I'll see what I can do about requesting the board for you.

    That would be awesome!  I really don't have an idea for the board. Maybe you could just talk to them and see if they're even willing to create one for us?

    I'll see what I can do, and will put in your request to the Nest admins for a board to call your own. Can't guarantee anything since I'm just a volunteer moderator, but I'll keep you posted. If you don't see any updates from me in the next couple of weeks, feel free to PM me about it.

    You're awesome!  Girls of the past tried to get one for us and they denied it.

    Ladies, it may be helpful if you could possibly brainstorm a name for the new board that would be in line with the Nest's newlywed/married "theme." While TK had the DW board for those planning their destination weddings, over here on TN, you're already married. It's arguable that the Travel board here is viewed by the admins as being comparable to DW, just a guess on my part. The themes of these boards drop the planning aspect. If you can find a niche that isn't filled already on TN, they might be more likely to create it for you.

    Again, I can't promise anything other than that I will make your request known to the Nest admins. And, actually, I've already put it out there. Now the waiting game begins as to when I may get a response.

  • Ok I clearly missed this whole convo cause I was on my field ride with my manager but THANK YOU for requesting us our own TN page. Ladies I think maybe we should hang out here for a bit till we hear the verdict on this, then make a private one if we still need too? Just my thought cause I agree with Kelly that past off-boards have blown up and gone down in flames and I wouldnt want that:)

  • Just an idea but maybe we could have a DW anniversary board? A lot of other brides bond on their monthly boards and then can join that anniversary board. But we all bonded on DW and have a variety of dates. It would give us a home that we could go to in addition to your normal anniversary board for girls who had friends both places. 

    I agree on being torn over moving to a private board. I'd like the safety thing. I mean I don't even share my FB cause I don't random people finding me lol and it'd be nice to vent openly but will it stay as active?

    That might be feasible. Now we just have to wait and see.

  • I recommended on the other thread that maybe they have a DW 2008, DW 2009, DW 2010, DW 2011 etc.
