Needs Reply Communication Thread (updated)

@bookworm274

Thanks for updating!❤

@bookworm274

All is well :-)

Blessings everybody!

PS; what is offboarding?

@juliak1968

Hi, offboarding is the process of removing someone from the team. The post by Cheery that is linked above is in regards to making sure people are active on the team so if there is consistent inactivity then there is a set procedure that everyone can be aware of.

If you have any questions about that feel free to message me or @CheeryMango or you can post on the thread made by Cheery - hope that all made sense!

@bookworm274

Thanks for clearing that up for me - Have a great weekend!~

Blessings, Day 😀

@juliak1968

Glad it makes sense - if you do find you have any more questions about it feel free to let us know. Hope you have a great weekend too!

@bookworm274 doing great today its almost 70 here just outside enjoying it plan to go through and pick up some nr today and i hope everyone just has a great day i was thinking it might be better to do the check ins/reminders one day before the beginning of the next month instead of the first day when the tally goes back to 0 so we can check and send it in for forgetful people like me :')

Hi @Bunny1637 here is the Needs Reply Communication Thread, welcome to our team!

I am the leader of the NR team, I post bi-weekly check ins to make sure that everything is okay and for you to give me feedback - I also remind you in these check ins to fill out this form bi-weekly to let me know how many posts you respond to so we know you are still active, that you're okay and so we can allocate your cheers! Don't worry about remembering when you have to fill out the form because we will remind you in our check-ins which you will be tagged in!

Please also take a look at the post here regarding effective replying - it is important that every member on the team look at this and comment that it has been read and understood.

You can find the Needs Reply queue here - click me!

Real life is tiring but making it through. I don't have any questions.

@Asher

Hey, I'm so sorry to hear life is tiring right now - I hope you get the rest you deserve soon!

@bookworm274 thankyou 💕 hope you doing ok also

@bookworm274

Hello everybody! I hope you are all doing well :-)

I've read all of the off boarding rules and something concerns me: The way I respond to brand new posts is actually a step ahead of the needs reply thread because what I do is go to Popular in Community and each post is posted there in the order it was posted, so that when I respond to the newest of posts they never end up going into the Needs reply thread. I've been doing this this way from the beginning back when we first discussed creating a Needs Reply team. Nobody has said anything to my concern but I wanted to be proactive. I've been active on 7cups daily since the start, it has helped me as my other therapy and meds and art classes online (everything is online now for me) I've gotten used to my little routine and when I am drawing a blank I start counting on the COUNT TO ONE MILLION thread lol I hope you are all doing great tonight.

Blessings, Day ❤️

@juliak1968 Absolutely nothing wrong with doing that but just a heads up, threads without any replies yet will not show there. I tend to look at threads both based on popular (most recent post) and newest (most recent thread).

@AffyAvo

Thank you very much!~ Have a wonderful day

Blessings, Day

@juliak1968

Hey, that is completely fine! As they are posts that have not yet received a response they still count towards your quota (but I will double check with @CheeryMango if this will still be the case when the tracker is specified for NR).

The reason we wanted to make clear that the posts need to be needs reply is because sometimes there is confusion and people think that responding to posts that only have one reply or something similar still counts towards the needs reply quota which it does not.

If you have any more concerns about it please let me know and I'll be happy to help to the best of my ability! Thanks for all of your work on the team, it is super appreciated ❤️

@bookworm274
Thanks so much, We all appreciate all your doing!!

@juliak1968

Hey, hope you are doing well! Just wanted to post a little update on this as @AffyAvo has provided me with some more information on the Popular section.

It is important to make sure that threads that are being responded to are 100% Needs Reply posts - this means that the original post of the thread has not received a response at all. If there is any responses/replies below then it does not count as a needs reply thread.

Therefore, if you are responding to the original posts that have no responses then that is fine and counts as Needs Reply, if you are responding to another response or something that is on a thread then that is not a Needs Reply and would not count towards the quota for the NR Team.

I hope that this makes sense and provides more information about what counts as a Needs Reply Post - soon I might do a separate post on what counts towards the quota and how to know if it is Needs Reply or not as that may be helpful.

Please do let me know if that helps at all or if there are any further questions in regards to it - thanks for all of your work on the team ❤️

@bookworm274 @juliak1968

The popular list only has threads that have a reply. This list is ordered by the newest reply (and will not count the original posts). Responding to some non-original posts in threads are beneficial and desired, as people do not always start their own thread when seeking support or asking a question, but this isn't the main focus of the needs reply team, and doesn't get counted towards the quota.

I explain how the sorting works here, popular has changed from how it used to be a while ago.

@bookworm274

Thank you very much!~ Have a wonderful day

@bookworm274

PS: another thing I do always is click the heart on every post in the Community under Popular, If we all took an extra few seconds we could really make people feel ultra supported :-)

.........................click the heart on every post!!

Blessings, Day

@juliak1968 Sooo truee, Day, upvoting/ hearting posts is the easiest way to practice kindness and make someone feel heard and supported in 7 cups. Thankyou for highlighting its significance!❤

I love this post by @Roadie: https://www.7cups.com/forum/7CupsLeadership_188/SubcommunitiesInformation_2314/Thevalueofforumupvotes_24368/ emphasizing the same so beautifully!❤

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou

1: Just a bit burnt out from work from getting stuck working OT randomly.
2: Got no questions.

Hello everybody, I wanted to let you know I am taking a month or so off to work on an art project as I have two online art therapies that both include homework, I am having fun and fulfilling a few art requests recently. Not to say I won't be responding to an occasional needs reply, and doing some counting on "Count to One Million". Here are this months drawings.

Blessings, Day
