  • Well, until they ban me for it, yes. 


    Months ago when the BJ/BM transition was made known, the mods were invited to comment on many issues and problems that we had been talking about for ages. The main XO group leader even got involved because the mods banned together to have a voice about these changes and shifts we were seeing as well as the problems. We felt heard- hell, I even had a personal phone call with a member of the board myself. 

    Then, slowly, it was made clear that our feedback was not actually being heard. That the changes at XO were actually intentional and calculated- they do want a different tone and atmosphere. They do want to cater to the app and new members more than the regs and the older ways of doing things. We looked at draft language, gave feedback, then more and more.

    And this last time, it was posted as an announcement that the tool out was happening and we were asked to comment on typos and possible sensitivity problems. We commented on wording like "hazing" and other full content. Constructive criticism aimed at making things work better for our existing communities. 

    Radio silence for a long time, until they came back at wrote us a letter telling us that they valued our feedback but that these items were not up for discussion, and if we felt we could not support them as is then they would be sad to see us go. Henceforth known as the "fuck off" letter. 

    Many people then commented on the nature of the letter and how it was inappropriate and how badly this was going to go over. We asked for timing clarification. We called out that the letter was passive aggressive and seemed to violated the Community Rules itself. 

    And a FEW but not all MODs who spoke out were suddenly banned for supposedly sharing information about the Mod Board and speaking out against XO publicly- though the evidence is weak. If it is for things said on the Mod board, then more should have been banned. And no evidence was given to support that they shared it so... They banned the naysayers that spoke loudest, and that lead this group.

    And then she posted that they were banned for conflict with BM and that specific reasons will not be given. And that Bump higher ups do not like the culture of Parenting and are okay with a mass exodus.

  • Wow.  I just checked out Parenting for the first time in a long time.  It seems like all the regs are banned now.  That's a bummer.  They were nothing but welcoming to me when I used to post over there on occasion.
  • Back when I had more time on my hands I lurked there regularly. That's going to kill a lot of the bump traffic.

    I was going to link the most hilarious Parenting thread that ever happened, but all of the banned posters took away so much of it that it wasn't even funny anymore.  So sad.
