#486661, "Where Have All the Triplet Moms Gone??"


          

Granted, I'm not on this site as often as I used to be, but I do enjoy popping on from time to time. Is it just me, or is traffic much 'lighter' these days? Used to be that posts rolled quickly to the bottom of page one or two, replaced by fresh new ones hourly. These days, it seems like the same posts languish on page one for days, even weeks! Some of the forums that used to be popular like photos, etc. don't even get used anymore.

I know at one time there was an alternate site started. Is that where everyone has gone? Or is there something else I've missed.

I kind of miss the 'good ole days!'

I think most have gone to Facebook. The "Veterans" board here has just about died out. I joined the Facebook triplet group but there's no action there. I think it's more privately oriented.

A shame really. There are so many new triplet moms that could use support from those that have been there!

I miss the "good ole days."

Definitely Facebook. There are a ton of groups. Some are private and some are not. I think I'm part of 5 or 6...

I figured Facebook was a large part of it but it just seems like there has been such a mass exodus from TC over the last two years. Too bad.

We are all on Facebook now, where there isn't any censorship and the mob rules. It's like the Wild Wild West.

I feel the same way - where is everyone?? How do I find these Facebook groups? When I search on FB, most of them have just a few members. Would love to keep connecting with other triplet moms.

Thx.
Erica

Facebook. We can say what we want there without being censored. Sorry, but the over policing of this board and banning long time posters turned a lot of people away from here. I still post but I understand why many do not. It is a shame. This place has been a great source of information for so many triplet parents.

Just some advice for new parents - there is a wealth of information here on Triplet Connection if you search for it. It may seem light on content at the moment, but if you have a specific issue you're dealing with search the database. When this board was active there was information flying around all the time and it's still accessible.

It may not be the community it once was, but there still is the information out there. Search effectively, and you'll likely find it.

You know, I'm not on Facebook and choose not to be. I think it is good that there is policing on here since we all know how cruel it could get. It is a shame that so many did go to Facdbook

Glad to hear some of you feel the same about the loss of 'life' on this board. Censorship, drama and all, TC used to be a lively community that got me through the early triplet days. Often it was a hoot to jump on just for some comic relief. But there was also a TON of solid parenting tips and information. I do miss those days. Wish there was a way to resurrect it in some form.
