FWR is far from cliquey! Just jump in on other threads. (I arrived here, alone, having been derided for asking a question in other internet spaces wondering what the fuss was about. I read a bit then started talking. At the time there was literally nowhere else I dared say any of this stuff, not even in real life at home! I never felt I was unwelcome here or that there was a clique at all, ever!).
It is however kind of cliquey to have a special thread for a specific group of people from another board sharing posts about issues when those issues are being discussed elsewhere too. I've seen sine good posts on here that would benefit from being on topic -specific threads. It is a shame to split our voices, that's all.
I do understand your collective need for a life raft and to find each other. I have no issue with you all wanting to hold together as a group who know each other well but wonder if another kind of space would work better for that? There are various options I'm sure. NOT saying "you should all leave", as far as I'm concerned you are all very welcome... but for exclusive chat between an already established group I just think there might be better platforms.
Starting to make personal attacks on people, established posters, who are uncomfortable with the possible disruption of this thread and the segregation it encourages (I mean by offering two places to comment on the same topic... it splits out the exchange of ideas) isn't really a good look.
I do think a "weekly round up" type thread would be kind of a good idea though. But with links to other threads for actual discussion of each issue? Kind of like "Break it Down for Me" but weekly or monthly?
