Weddingbee Wednesday! (XP)

Knotties, 

As many of you know, TK Gods have been making changes to the site, and while there are changes many of us like, there are also changes we don't. There have been a lot of back and forth discussions and a lot things we were told would be happening that are now not. Some of our questions go unanswered or the responses to them make no sense, and we feel we are getting the run-around in some areas, and it's frustrating.

We realize that the boards are not only for regs. However, if regs didn't stick around and didn't post, the boards would be dead. Lurking isn't participation. Only by having active members of this community is there a community at all. If not for us, the lurkers would have nothing to lurk, and even they would leave.

In peaceful protest of the things we feel TK Gods are being dismissive about, many of us plan to boycott the site this coming Wednesday (tomorrow). We are asking that any and all regs who agree do not even log into TK that day so the site will not even get our page hits, which helps lead to profits. It is our hope that TK Gods will see a noticeable dip in activity and get a taste of what it would be like if there was yet another mass exodus. It will only work if we can get as many of you to participate as possible.

Lurkers, if any of you agree and want to help, we would welcome your "participation" by not logging in as well, but it is especially important that the regs stay off TK and do not post. AT ALL.

For funsies, a bunch of us have created accounts over on Wedding Bee and plan to go kill their buzz. It should be a great party, BYOS (bring your own stinger) of course.

Do it!  You'll be cool!  All the cool kids are doin' it!  And look! I made this Hive Invasion badge just for you!  It's all about the badges, people. And the unicorns.

  • I already have an account over there with a different user name.  I'll be there.  I'm not happy with how things have been "We hear you!  We are taking care of it asap!" to "Too bad about what we said we would do, this is what we are doing."

    I made an account over there a few months ago because it was slow over here and there are plenty of train wrecks over there for entertainment.  Surprisingly, there are some girls over there who would be great additions over here and actually tell the zillas they are wrong.

    Sadly though, it is still the land of validating whatever a bride wants to do and firing bridesmaids because they aren't towing the line.

    I'll be there and not here.
  • It will definitely be some new entertainment for me! I have only browsed there a couple times, and that was just from Googling things that linked me there.

  • We will be frequenting the Etiquette board over there with as much posting as possible and using December 2010 as a home base to talk to each other.

  • I probably shouldn't be on here this week anyway, since I have my field exams starting today.  So count me in (at least on the boycotting part, not necessarily on the invasion part).



  • Well, since you said unicorns, I'm in!  I'm naming mine snowflake...

  • I admit... I'm mostly a lurker on the national boards and post on my month board. I'm in. LOVE the badge and van and consider me gonzo tomorrow. It's a super busy week anyways!

    Hats off to you ladies!


  • I'm somewhere between a lurker and reg, but count me in for the boycott! Good luck on weddingbee-last time I was there half the posts were about babies and the other half were complaining about too small e-rings.
  • I'm in! This should be fun. :D BTW, should I sign out of TK on all my devices or just not come to the site on them?
  • I mainly lurk, but tomorrow I will stay off the boards. Good luck over on WeddingBee ladies, that place is a mess of unicorns and rainbows.

  • But how will we know how to find each other???  I've never been to Wedding Bee, and will get scared and lost in a new place all by myself!!!
  • Many of us are using the same names and/or avatars. We will for sure be posting on their E board and will be using Dec 2010 as a place to congregate to talk to each other.

  • I can't believe we violated the TOS in any way. But whatever. I'm gonna run out of email addresses, I can see that.
  • I'll sign up now with the same name! See you all tomorrow!

  • We may need to stay off the Dec 2010 board and have completely different screen names/avatars.

  • Ok, I read over the TOS. That was boring, but here's what I got: 1. we can't post "meaningless" information 2. we can't annoy people I think we should also get an email list together and start emailing to discuss instead of posting here, because I don't think we would have been in violation of #1 had we not posted about it here.

    @AddieL73 glad you posted the link to the E board because I'm so confused by their board layout lol. I'll bookmark it for tomorrow just so I don't have to come look for it, otherwise that defeats the purpose

  • I'd love to, but WeddingBee is blocked at work (TK isn't). I'll try to stay off TK tho.
  • I'm all for the email list. I don't think I want to venture over there.
  • @addiel73 will there be cake on the wedding bee?

    Well, ELM12345, I bet there is, but I don't think they have any for US!

  • I'm only back for a second to say that I was BLOCKED at the bee! I didn't even say anything mean! Lame.
  • Probably because we don't live in the land of unicorns. I'll bring the cake. You bring you "love it" points so we can get a unicorn and be legit.

    THE CAKE IS A LIE

    It's like a cash bar but they ban you instead of charging you.
