Important update on Group Support Rooms!
Hello, community,
My team and members reached out and informed me that some members are joining our group support rooms to recruit our community members to offsite groups.
So I want to remind our community that offsite contacts are not allowed. Because we value our members' privacy and safety. If someone tries to do so, they violating the community guidelines.
We want our group support rooms to be open, compassionate, respectful and supportive for all. So, I request you all to please ensure to comply with our chatroom and community guidelines. They are issued in your interest.
But still, if we find anyone joining rooms with a purpose to recruit and invite community members to offsite spaces, they will get instant mute as well as may lead to account ban if the same behavior persists.
Also, a request to our community to help us keep our rooms moderated, safe and supportive space to participate for everyone. If you find anyone disrupting the environment and violating community guidelines, remind them to follow it or else their access to the rooms can be discontinued.
Our efforts are directed towards providing better user experience to our wonderful community members.

@ASilentObserver
Thanks for making this clear again to everyone.
Thank you for creating this it is super important
Thanks so much for the notice.
@ASilentObserver
Thank you Obs for the warning, I had no idea that there was an issue in group support again I mean we just got over the last epidemic not that long ago so this is a bit disheartening... Well Ill make sure to be extra observant in my discussions, and follow the steps you recommended until this issue is hopefully resolved soon.
Dont panic everyone weve fought epidemics before, and have survived so I know we can do it again! Good luck everyone involved in group support, everything will be okay! 💗...
Sincerely, @AriannaPink (Arianna) 💗...
@AriannaPink
offsite contact is always going to be something of a challenge here, but we can do our best to combat that. that's what this community is all about: looking out for each other.
thanks for always being so vigilant, Arianna!!
I have an exam tomorrow and I can't study, wish me luck.
Fanatsyic!
@ASilentObserver ''if we find anyone joining rooms with a purpose to recruit and invite community members to offsite spaces, they will get instant mute as well as may lead to account ban if the same behavior persists. '' why do you care so much if people wanna go offsite? How about erdicating trolls and abusive members and incompetent listeners. You highlight the importance of ''don't give advice'' yet you do the same. So many people here have made friendships after going offline. I'm not saying encourage it but you shouldn't tell people what to do. There's this amazing this called free choice.
This is from Glen's original post from about the room changes. "We understand if you decide our free services no longer fit your needs and we wish you the best." Even Glen understood that members would leave the site after the changes were made. Soo yeah everyone left, and now y'all are mad?? Did you NOT expect members who became actual online friends to find eachother elsewhere?? 🤣🤣
