Ok, I finally figured out how to get rid of that little nosy thing at the bottom that gave away all our information.
I don't think it's anyone's business who is on the board at this very moment, who visited, etc etc.

The thread on Meeting Pot has been archived, and can no longer be viewed. Its title is still visible, and may or may not disappear with time (depending on forum software/settings I suppose). But now pero it is a sticky at the top of each of their branches- I'm not a member and I can see it ... Weird

Traveldude claims to have found it on google. That's a lie. I've been having people try to find us on google all weekend. No one has.
There is something called Fig Jam Nation from Hauppauge High School. That's not us.

Wow, My first post and cue the drama already.
Webs, it's simple. I took the info from barsoom's post #78 ("The exodus from TT has taken people fro WT and YC and The Meeting Pot on Proboards and to Political Stew."), Googled it and that led me to the first place I posted on. From there, I followed the link from the thread.
Simple.

I know nothing about the who, how, why of the new Meeting Pot sticky. Over and out from me on the topic.

Apparently people think we're cliquey because we're not web searchable and we(recently) closed our general page to outside viewers.
Yeah, because other chat boards aren't cliquey.
Sorry but there are a bunch of fuck yous I'd like to deliver.

Don't bother Webs.
I'm glad you closed the board for now.... maybe when the dust clears we can change it but for now it's a good decision.

Yes, I'd be more than happy to open it again in about a months time when the dust settles, but considering I've already seen one comment along the lines of 'I can't be arsed trolling if I have to register first to read it' then for now it can stay.

People are weird, why bother trolling? I just don't GET it.

Voy - did this website come up in the search results or was the link to this place on a thread at another website which was in the search results?
Ugh - does that even make sense?

Post by gertieshirtypants on Jan 14, 2013 17:55:35 GMT -5
Aha - no, you're right, voy. I just did it, too. The main link definitely comes up in the Google search results.
I don't know how to put a screenshot of it up here, sorry.

I just did a Google search and the link to this board came up as the 3rd hit after 2 FB pages

I must be doing something wrong, or using a different term as it doesn't turn up for me. How strange. Maybe I'm just google challenged. Again, not that it is a real issue for me - the name being able to be found seems fine to me, it is individual threads being googleable that can be worrying for some people who've had stalkers in the past.

Please let me know exactly what you put in, because I put in FigJam, FigjamNation, FigjamNation at proboards, Websterella...
Nothing. So if you're coming up I'd like to know exactly what you're putting in google.

Yep, well I figured that's how it is in the web address, so I'd try googling that.

Post by HalcyonDaze on Jan 14, 2013 18:25:28 GMT -5
Ok, I played around with that and then a few words from some of the posts on the open sections and for now nothing is showing up, so all good for anyone who is worried about stalkerish types.

I'm not too worried, personally, if it's searchable. I just realise that wasn't the intention and some posters do prefer it isn't.

Post by gertieshirtypants on Jan 14, 2013 18:27:40 GMT -5
But it's still showing up in the search for me.

Post by HalcyonDaze on Jan 14, 2013 18:32:12 GMT -5
gertie, the home page shows up, what I meant was I can't (so far) get it to show me any actual links to other pages or threads. Which I think is the intention.

It's third in the google search results using the search term "figjamnation"
Also the library and travel are open so anyone can read those.
