Ok, I've got to say it...

I miss the way this board use to be...active, that is. There use to be tons of posts for me to read while I was having slow moments at work! But it seems since this private board went up things have sort of died here.

I agree.  And I miss everyone.  I try to get to the private board, but I can't always at work, it's blocked.

cvillecouple

agreed completely!

I agree, it is a bummer how slow the board has gotten.  The private board is blocked at work, so I usually post and read here during the day and on the private board in the evenings.  Some days the board hardley moves at all though, which is sad.

Me too   I keep thinking it'll pick back up, but so far...not so much. 

And I don't want to abandon this board, but I'm sort of wondering/wishing I could get an invite to the private board just b/c I feel like I'm "missing" all the people that used to be here and all the tips and advice I used to get from reading the posts of everyone with older babies.

I feel the exact same way....it sucks

I agree. I got denied access to the private board when I tried so I am pretty bitter about it all. I miss all my "friends" from the past 2 years....thats why i am rarely around here anymore. It makes me sad.

I agree with everyone. I used to be on here all the time when I was a work and had a free minute....but it just seems so slow that I barely even get on anymore. I need to make more of an effort.

AngelLuver_02

i agree.

I don't really understand why there had to be a private board to begin with. Maybe I missed something, but why was it made? It feels like its just created a big rift between us all, which is sad because I miss seeing the posts from all the people I've known for a long time etc. I can't keep up with a private board and this one...I went there once and couldn't even figure out how to post to it! -.-

Me too.  I was a lurker until DD was born, but it used to be really active over here.  I miss following some of the ladies who I know all the way from MC/PL.  I hope things pick up as we get more folks from SAL.

This makes me sad. I too miss the ladies.

The good news is that there are at least 11 of us coming over to PAL from SAL in the next two weeks. Hopefully we can help pick the board up a bit. I miss the old gals too though!

I was just thinking the same thing yesterday.

While it's great to see all the new mommies coming over from SAL, being one of the PAL mommies with an older baby, I really miss keeping up with the other ladies I went through PL/SAL with and getting their advice and thoughts about things.  I'll try to help the new mommies when I can though!

Same here. Not that I am a very active poster so maybe I shouldn't talk There's no way I could keep up with two boards even if I was cool enough to join. The nest is sort of my go-to place for some internet fluff.

I agree. I was a lurker before DS was born but loved reading all the posts. Then after DH came along I could never get on here...now I finally have time and the board is so slow...

pinkwedding05

Yeah, I just miss all of the girls I've met on here.  I'm mostly on the adoption board these days because it doesn't seem like there are that many of us left with babies Annie's age. 

jkelly41

I agree!  I barely have time to be on this board, so I never bothered getting an invite to the private board.  I just chose to igore the drama and focus on helping other women and getting advice/insight in return.  Even if I'm not "friends" with them.

sdkrlm

well I think you need to try to contact the nest/bump gods and see if they can track who is one starring the posts and being snarky to the girls here.  this used to be a safe haven for us to post and get to know each other and it got invaded by trolls with no repercussions.

it totally sucks
