Checking in!

Hopefully to add some context - this is a bit of a lifeboat from another message board where the board owner became unhappy with the discussion of Womens and Sex Based rights, as we were not inclusive.

<waves to Stephanie>

Well here we are then. I can't use my JTT username on here because it's basically nothing but a meme here and would be very confusing ...

VicSynix · 25/11/2022 16:26

Well hello all, another one from Over There. Previously known as DoubleEntendre

StephanieSuperpowers · 25/11/2022 16:26

Yes, in my haste to get something started while the iron was hot, I just launched in without anything like context!

Hello??? hello???

WallaceinAnderland · 25/11/2022 16:28

Has everyone signed the sex based petition?

StephanieSuperpowers · 25/11/2022 16:30

I'm feeling a bit deflated, to be honest. I'm sure we'll get the conversation up and rolling again in no time, but given the events today, it feels very discombobulating.

Evening all. I feel better already.

TheMostBeautifulDogInTheWorld · 25/11/2022 16:33

Well it's gone back to "Can't fetch front page" so it looks like I've been banned in any case.

TheMostBeautifulDogInTheWorld · 25/11/2022 16:36

If anyone still does have access to the site and could tell the "Dogs" thread (in the Family folder) what's happened, and send them my love, that would be kind.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 25/11/2022 16:38

What happened?

BernardBlacksMolluscs · 25/11/2022 16:40

Blimey, I feel like I should be handing out blankets and hot sweet tea

WeDontNeedToTalkAboutJamie · 25/11/2022 16:40

Hello and welcome.

Splattsville · 25/11/2022 16:42

Hello people - just caught up on the thread in the Other Place, but haven't read the JTS one yet, off to do that now.

VicSynix · 25/11/2022 16:43

Basically, our mere presence talking about this contentious issue on a tiny segregated corner of another talkboard, made everyone else feel unsafe...

StephanieSuperpowers · 25/11/2022 16:43

Well, we were members of a talkboard discussing women and girls' sex-based rights on a thread for some time. The topic in general was considered to be hateful so we were corralled there in the name of free speech. Today the site owner decided that discussing the topic at all on the site was so disagreeable to him that he was considering shutting the site down. There was a great deal of feedback on how hateful the topic and posters on this topic are and how valuable the site (minus us) is, so we have decamped here.

I'm here, but I'm pissed off because I was going to start a less generally named thread, so we could identify it more easily, and avoid all the 'who's this, what's it for' palaver. But whatever

ExiledElsie · 25/11/2022 16:47

Hi all! Name changed so that you know who I am on here.

Rightsraptor · 25/11/2022 16:48

Well, welcome one and all. It sounds most mysterious. And predictable, all at the same time.

Brokendaughter · 25/11/2022 16:48

There's plenty of room here :-)

Opinions that include what women want mattering are welcome.

FleurDuMal · 25/11/2022 16:49

Hi all. Didn’t post much on the other thread, but I lurked

(I can guess who you are) There seems to a glitch, which rights itself given a short time. If you don't post on the bad thread it seems not to affect you

Oh, I'm sorry about that. Feel free to do so, we can abandon this.

crabbyoldbat · 25/11/2022 16:51

I think most (many) of us were on here anyway

RunPmt · 25/11/2022 16:51

Oooh which talkboard?
