Karla, I know you don’t have much time, with taking care of your disabled husband. So I understand why approval of new members sounds like a big undertaking. And I agree that I don’t think you’d have as big a problem now that forums aren’t as popular.
I was thinking of a compromise, perhaps the moderators could approve new members. That would save time for you. I am an admin for the Jessica Smith Junkees FB group. We approve new members and it doesn’t take too much time. You just need about three questions. Such as How did you learn about the group. How long have you been exercising and favorite workout. We also have a statement about the group being bully free etc., if you agree answer yes. Most requests don’t answer the questions and you can delete them.

Was the new forum deleted?
I was looking forward to a landing spot when this forum no longer works.

Here is the link: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/vfroost/ -There is also the forum Karla set up on proboards: https://homefitness.freeforums.net/ -There is also the totalfitnessdvds tapatalk forum* that I think was originally set up for people when the collage and yayas forums went away (looks to have 470 members): https://totalfitnessdvdsforum.com/ *I think this one was originally more of an old school forum setup and then later changed to a tapatalk forum. -I think there may still be the original VF Roost group on Facebook that's been in existence for a long time (years?). I'm not on facebook and it's not public so I don't know anything about it except you need to get approved to be a member and I forget which VFers are the ones who manage membership. This link may work for Facebook members: https://www.facebook.com/groups/357899254402542 |

Earlier there was a "code 300" error message, but the forum's working now. On the support forum, members of other forums there have reported code 300; what I found in a quick search suggests some problem that never seems to last for very long. I hope for smoother times ahead!

I think I just joined Karla's board by following adawn's link above. Do I really have to give a CC number to activate my account, though?
Also, I guess I already had a proboards account. Just needed to change my password because I had no clue. Unless it's one I recently joined. I'm so confused. :-) Last edited by Joni O; 07-30-23 at 10:24 PM. Reason: -] |

Karla, thanks again for taking the time and making the effort to find a landing spot for the group. What you've done may not suit everyone, but you are doing SOMETHING, and I for one appreciate it.
