Private board?

[KittyGurl]

I'm part of one board where you have to pay a small fee to see their 'private' boards.

But some people won't be able to pay for it. My dad and mom won't let me pay and some other people won't pay either so that's kinda not fair.

Karen, I agree with that. Sending PM's to your closest friends will work just fine.

If someone wants to chat, they can set up a private chatforum. I did that a few years ago. You can invite anyone you like to join.

I would have liked the idea. Sometimes I would like to discuss things that are private, and that I wouldn't want to be read by... let's say co-workers. And after all, you can find the PT threads via search engines, like Google, so it's easy to find what a certain person has written when you search for it.

I don't mean to exclude any PT-members, but I'm not comfortable with the thought that people who know me IRL are lurking. That's why I would have like a private forum for the more private subjects.

I agree with Karen too! I have been a member of a forum with private section some years ago. That private section was no good at all, as some members seemed to find it necessary to gossip about other members...
Private messaging is the best!!!

What does everyone think about an area specifially for mom/kids, other than the general area? I've seen it done on other boards with success. That way, they could still talk to fellow PTers but have their own separate area.

I was thinking the same thing Val, i am finding it hard keeping up with who is expecting, who has been born etc.
