Hi
I was just wondering if there is anything around that would allow me to mix the basic way of Facebook with a standard forum set up so I could give my users a full experience as Facebooks Groups are farcical and so far behind the times now that it seems not funny any longer, knowing they rule supreme in this sector makes them not worry a jot if they loose users in their droves because of this seeing as they could very comfortably not even notice many thousands leaving at one go as they have been to greedy killing of the competition whilst not properly servicing those they already have signed up and running their initial offerings commendably before moving on to pastures new, I mean I run a FB group of very, very close to 100,000 users now and we outgrew those surroundings a long time ago but have never really been able to find anything that is even close to as popular (and I frankly don’t know why, their “groups” forums if you like were never set up for really many more than a few thousand when all is said and done, a small local group, or a workplace that type of thing, but most definitely NOT a 100k majority depended upon day/night Community)
As most are not happy about leaving FB as dare I say they couldn’t manage to live without knowing what next door had for dinner two weeks last Saturday or whose black cat it was that walked across the road in front of them or dare I say to flood all our friends with the fact your accounts been hacked “again” (maybe if they didn’t allow e dry Tom, Dick or Harry on their profile it might not be but that’s another days topic I am sure 😎 typical humans they want their cake and to eat it as is usually the case after all as they want all we supply and way more, they want our posts to display in some sort of order and not multiple varying topics all on top of one another with no way of finding posts again with a post count of between 400-500 hundred distinctly separate posts everyday of life is it really any wonder?? But neither will they of course heed our daily requests to read our FAQ page prior to posting to check and see if their question has been answered as 9/10 it has and without exaggeration about 2/3rds are repeated every other day or so at the longest, but hey who am I to question those that daily moan at my Team they can’t find their threads or are not being answered !!!!
That all being said we did really want to bring the whole lot onto a far better set of softwares likes of this where I was hoping we could retain the social side FB gives us but under certain criteria and sectors only and then allow seperate sections for each topic we cover of which there are a few, add to this a full social area (our version of FB) and an Admin area (all be it for just two Admins at present but would like to grow this also taking a lot of the strain from myself The Founder and my Mod) and then the adding in of a few new areas to then totally encapsulate the entire Welfare Reform & Austerity Measures currently ongoing as I can’t see these no matter the potential up and coming Gov changes looming changing apart for, the worse yet again with UC fast catching up and Disabled benefits being refused at a faster rate than Lewis Hamilton’s last winning circuit best and all the while it’s the most vunerable, unwell and needy that are being stuffed once again, there is absolutely no fairness, no logic and no consistency throughout the country with a great many DWP staff themselves not even knowing the answers what hope is there for an badly ill/disabled, vunerable member of any one of our communities got??? Simple answer and only one answer NONE that’s the only honest answer with the vast array of MPs not at all interested in their plights, not caring if they eat or heat tonight but someone has to care and that’s where the group I founded comes in it’s been going for well over four years now and is going from strength to strength but things are not getting any better, we just get busier month on month.
We have NOT one professional member of staff but rather a totally dedicated Admin Team and an equally dedicated very know
edgeable core user group who all work totally FREE of charge and thus supply all we do totally free of charge where others are charging for what is freely available information if you know where to 👀 (there are always those that will scrape the barrel just to make a quick buck I suppose but at some offering to complete application forms for upwards of £500 or a % of any award accused when folk are totally desperate they will try or do anything) by being able to combine all we offer with all we want to now offer in a sociable, happy, friendly, knowledgeable and well laid out, easy to navigate, design giving our users what they want they will remain with us and thus save themselves and their families from the indignities of having to be reliant upon food banks and the unscrupulous to get by always worrying when the house will be repossessed or the kids taken into care as contrary to popular beliefs it’s NOT just the Disabled affected there are millions of low paid, zero hours contract workers that are every bit at risk as the long term unemployable and Disabled are.
So please if you can help, either set something like the above mentioned up for us or talk me through what’s required or equally supply any practical help, support and such like then please contact me ASAP at ukdwpbenefitshub@mail.com headed “New Website” for a rapid response.
Many thanks for reading
