So is it weird if we start a FB group?

TB is going to delete this board soon enough, so why not? I don't want to lose touch! I'm kind of weird about being FB friends with everybody, but I think I'd enjoy having a group where we could all check in as we pleased. Obviously, we would keep it open to Octomoms until this board is gone.

Re: So is it weird if we start a FB group?

  • I'd definitely be down. I don't post here nearly as often as I'd like, but FB has some advantages TB can't offer. I'm not going to abandon ship here as long as this board still exists but Im not adverse to linking up/sharing my deets with you all if it means we can stay in touch outside of the Bump's arbitrary timeline.

    Are they really going to delete it soon?? That is crazy and makes me sad! I'd join a Facebook group, I don't have anyone on Facebook now, but it would be weird not having an oct 11 board to go to everyday...

  • I just looked and they haven't deleted 2010 yet so we may be jumping the gun, but the offer still stands.

  • I'd join a group. I haven't friended anyone here because as much as I love you ladies and trust you my stranger danger is strong. I just get skittish about having Internet friends know everything about me. I'd be more comfortable with a group because from what I know you can set your privacy settings and whatnot. I'll still be active here, but I know our time is limited and don't want to lose touch. Plus I think we know each other enough to not have the crazy drama that the usual bump fb groups have.
  • What the hell, me too.  I'm not here as often as I'd like b/c mobile bump is lame.  I'd be much more active on FB.

  • Eh, I'll be the Debbie Downer and say I'm nota fan of this idea.. As we've seen time and time again, the FB groups never work.  Once the inmate are running the asylum, all bets are off. 

    PIus, I don't think this board is getting deleted anytime soon why don't we all just post on GBCN instead. I like the message board set up much better than FB. Post bumping drives me insane.  Also, I'm old school and like tickers, gifs in siggys and funny screen names. 

    So that's my case for staying put.  I'd obviously love to join the FB group to keep in touch, if that's the way the tide turns, but I know I won't post as much (and I'm already pretty low key here).

    I'm still active with the ladies on my DDs BMB from 2010. As far as I know it's not going anywhere. I hate the post bumping on FB personally. I think I'll wait and see what happens on TB 1st.
  • Ok, I am obviously too dumb to find my way into the group. Can somebody please add my incompetent azz?

    Why not just start a FB account for CMonkey?

    I'm much too lazy for that. I have my privacy setting pretty high, so I think it will be fine. The only thing I'm wondering is if what I post in the group will show up on my timeline. I don't want my friends/family to find me on TB. 

  • I'm totally down.  I was thinking of this myself.  While I'm not the most active poster, I try to check in on everybody once a day.  I would hate to lose this connection with you girls!

    I'm 99 percent sure only people who are also in the group would see it.

    That's what I was hoping. Thanks. 

  • im always up for groups lol

     


  • Ok, I joined. Which you should feel super special about because I have strict rule about not having people as friends I don't know IRL. But I love you all and because it's a group i feel better about it.

  • I put a request in! If you guys don't mind. I'd probably be more active over there since I'm on FB mobile all.the.time, but TB is blocked at work and mobile hates me.

    Probably a stupid question, but I am not super familiar with FB: If I were a part of the group, would other people in the group see my other, regular posts and profile information and whatever or just the stuff I post in the group [plus my name and profile picture of course]? TIA!

    Nope, not unless your FB friends with group member.  If you have your privacy settings high, you can have it so no one outside of your friends can see nothing but your name and fb profile pic.
