@inkyperidot

I have so many old friends on the site that are probably lost to me now. I'm not big on social media but tes kept me sane during lockdown.
No way. You won't lose me Grin

So pleased to have found this thread! I sorely missed the forums over what was a very grim Christmas. I was friedgreentomatoes on the TES. Off to look at the staffroom.boards site now!

I've actually found TES community to be a great source of information and support . There are wonderful folk on there. Collectively we offer very strong practical and emotional support even assisting others face to face. When I felt down I had my TES friends to hold me up.When TESSERS passed we have been there to support. A very supportive covid forum with daily support was created.Removing the community page at this time saddens me and I hope all those wonderful TESSERS are doing well. I recognise your names on here so

I got this reply 2 days ago. Make of it what you will.

Hi,

Thank you for getting in touch with us regarding Community.

We are aware that Community has not been working for several days now, meaning that people have not been able to use it as a work or social network. The platform that hosts Community is a separate platform that needed some critical work to ensure it was in line with the compliance levels elsewhere in Tes. Unfortunately, this was not something that could be scheduled at other times and we were not able to provide advanced notice.

We have had an update and the work involved is greater than expected. As this requires more investigation, we are currently trying to gauge the timescales involved. We apologies for the inconvenience.

During this time, we know that engaging with others is important, so, if you can, please do utilise our larger communities on our social media channels:

Follow us on Twitter here: twitter.com/TesResources

Follow us on Facebook here: www.facebook.com/tesResources

Thank you again for taking the time to contact us.

Many thanks

Tracy

Head of Customer Services

I endorse what ThevoiceofRosie has said. It’s very friendly and there’s support for anyone who needs it.

inkyperidot · 08/01/2021 11:15

Nizebaby here. Missing my old friends and at a loss as to why tes has left us in the lurch like this when people are already feeling isolated.

Could tessers with my email please contact me?

Hello all, hope I’m in the right place - angiebabe here. It’s taken me over 2 weeks to find anyone I know. It’s been a lonely time as I viewed and posted everyday.

What do you mean,"random blocking"? @quarks

Yes, I'm wondering what that means too.

I actually think that is a pretty rubbishy thing to do. We are in a lock down, FFS. some people are entirely on their own without any human contact what so ever. Don't tell people they can come and join your new gang, then ban them as soon as they say hello. Crap behaviour. Who behaves like that?

No one has been banned as soon as they say hello. That is an utter lie. You can expect to be removed if you don't follow the rules of the new site in your interactions with others.
BGRKE · 10/01/2021 00:59

It isn't a lie, I have seen what happened to one poster, and from the text conversations I have had, it is more than one.

BGRKE · 10/01/2021 01:01

Tbh, I am more incensed on their behalf than they are themselves, but however wryly they took it, that is still a shit thing to do to anyone. Absolutely shit - in a lock down, to someone who lives entirely alone.

Far better not to set up such a forum than to set it up in front of people's noses and forbid them from joining in.

I hope they are proud of themselves, nasty bullies.
