Facebook Group

jjess1201 · September 2018

Hi all, I know several have voiced how this board has become pretty quiet. I am willing to start a Facebook group, if people are interested. I have not been super active on this board, I am only on my cell and the app does not work very well and I am more of a Facebook person! Much more user friendly and easier to follow conversations!
I do need to be Facebook friends with at least 1 person to start the group so message me with your name if you want to be friends and then I can start the secret group. Once the group is started, you can request to join the secret group, I will name it "September 2018 Moms".
Let me know your thoughts or if you have any suggestions.
I am in a FB mom group for DS1 who was born in 2014 that started here on TB and moved to FB and it is so nice to keep up with everyone there!

To make it easy to make sure you are requesting to join the right group I will use this image for the group page.

Just looking at the group privacy options, I will make our group "closed" to begin with so you all can search for it and request to join. After a few weeks of everyone having a chance to join I will change it to secret so random people cannot find it and request to join.

I am I am interested! It's also hard for me to post in this app.

I tried to find the page with no luck

Car0liiine · September 2018

It's not showing up in results when I search either

jjess1201 · September 2018

@cab1209 and @Car0liiine, I'm sorry, I am working on it! I needed to be friends with at least 1 person to be able to start the group so @cab1209 friended me but she is still not showing up when I go to invite her to the group. Super frustrating! I may need to just put my husband in the group to start it and then tell him to leave! Haha I will give Facebook until this afternoon to see if she is added to my friends list and then go from there. I'm sorry!

@jjess1201 we are friends now!

jjess1201 · September 2018

The group is up and running on Facebook! Please feel free to search for the group or comment or inbox me your name and I can add you!

This app is a pain to use, and going through safari on my phone isn’t much easier either. I just requested to join the group on FB!

JLyn821 · September 2018

jessicag85 · September 2018

tpeci · September 2018

Car0liiine · September 2018

lpq0309 · September 2018

Thanks for this, going to look it up now to join

crushinit · September 2018

Awesome! TB is not super easy to use. Especially on my phone.

lisac113 · September 2018

Thanks, I just requested.

olliedog3 · September 2018

Hi! Just requested

mrsPNW · September 2018

I will be requesting shortly! Much prefer Facebook over bump app anyway!

mrsman2018 · September 2018

I would like to join the group - I agree that it is way more user friendly - the Bump app is the worst.
I just wonder if everyone who requests to join are approved? Are you looking at their Bump activity and interactions to avoid lurkers?
Will you be the only admin, jjess1201 ?

chuckienco · September 2018

I requested too

jjess1201 · September 2018

@mrsman2018 yes, if I dont recognize the screen name as a regular poster, will look up their activity before approving them. I would like a couple others to be admins as well so I am not the only one. Let me know if you're interested!
