Where will you be after the closedown?

#Post

Thought it might be useful to start a thread so you can let folks know where you will be after the shutdown

I'll be at @nzoomeds messageboard.
(currently looking for a new name if anyone has some ideas)

When we all enter the brave new world of tmmb is it the intention of most to retain their user name from this dying galaxy so that participants will be familiar with whom they are corresponding or wanting to avoid.

No, the game will be to register someone elses username before they do.

I can see your other account if you want us to have a go at resurrecting it, tied to a gmail address

and i've just found that I can merge your old account into your new account, or probably vice versa

Probably flick me a PM on TMMB if you want to do so with the details...

For me personally, Will probably end up visiting a few different places including dividing my time between places such as tmmb.co.nz and ********.com. Am using the same username for both.

For property related info, may have to reluctantly log on to FB more often than I have been in order to access that NZ Property Chat FB Group. Hopefully tmmb.co.nz, ********.com or perhaps another web based forum community may catch up and become just as active as the TradeMe Real estate forums once were.

Started up an NZ Community on matrix.org chat (federated chat system where you can self host your own node) some years ago as a stab in the dark experiment. Appeared to have started slowly growing as the matrix.org user base has grown. Tended to attract the more computer / techie crowd. Onboarding process I've found can be a challenge/roadblock for folks who may not be so tech minded.

oooOOOOOoooooooooo I gave you a very warm welcome this morning..:-))

Do you know much about web development? If so, contact nzoomed. You can private message them.

I will be nowhere, I won't go on message boards any more. It will save a lot of time. Maybe if I am really stuck I will go on some specialised message boards such as music production boards.

Unfortunately I don't really. I've been admin to some extent on a small commercial website but thats just uploading photos for products and doing minor changes to the site. I found it a bit of a learning curve lol.

I only ever went into the message boards here as I was already on Trademe for other things. I have no desire to hunt out any other message boards and see this as an opportunity to claim back the little bit of time I spend (most days) reading things here.

Good luck to everyone wherever you end up!

Might try tmmb.co.nz

Yeah, went back to have another look at the "Issues" forums and looked through the new posts page, got to page 3 and decided to jump straight out. Agreed, looks like it's gone a bit overly political (at least for my tastes) drowning out the other discussion topics. Will probably drop it from my visitation list at least until they can get a handle on things.

Might do, then again could be a good opportunity for giving it a break again for a while. Tempting though, certainly the most appealing choice of whats available. There are only so many neo nazi arseholes I can tolerate so ******** is out. The ignore feature is just a cop out.

Ignore this fact you are swimming in effluent.

Me and auntie hunni are there, so if you're looking for some appealing choices of what's available, then look no further.

We are the epitome of what every man dreams of. :-))

If you like tumbleweeds TMBB is great. Its so good, that only 3 people are ever online at a time.
All the action is at https://********.com
If you don't like politics you can put that whole category on Ignore and there are many other categories that actually have some members.

I agree.
Despite the claims of others it isn't full of neo nazis or any such thing.
Some people can't comprehend that people have different opinions and are entitled to them.
A lot of work being done in here by the usual crowd to promote their site by putting down the other.
Says a lot about them.

There is some seriously crazy people in the opionion/covid etc threads on that site and they're proffering 'opinions' which include Calling our PM a murderer and posting pics of Nazis and saying she's the same as them and suggesting people want to put others in concentration camp ovens and push them in front of trains. And all sorts of bullshit.

Personally I agree that people are entitled to their opinions but NOT if they're going to go very very OTT like that. They should keep that sort of stuff off their public soapbox. It's damaging and incredible innacurate and simply downright nasty.

Yes full blocking like Facebook would be FAR more useful, ignore only stops seeing their posts, they can still see yours and react so a bit useless really.

sadly my go-to techie has stopped helping people in person, having taken on a job in Rotorua which entails a lot of driving as well as the time taken up with his actual job. I'm going to need help occasionally for sure.

not really that much different to here is it? Talk of the PM and genocide, calling the PM a Nazi pushing a killer vax.....

How on earth do people read messageboards with only one eye?
Seeing things on one site and seemingly deny they happen on this one?
