Hey everyone,

Just a friendly announcement that our Friday Support Threads are happening tonight and will continue throughout the extended chat break.

We understand that the recent schedule changes have been a bit frustrating, so we want to make sure you have a form of support during this time :star:

Hopefully this is good news to those of you who regularly attend the Friday chats, and maybe for people missing the daily chats too :)

    yeah we probably need more mods to compensate for the lack of support groups.

    @Chloe234 I completely hear you on having two mods tonight but we only have one mod available today. We are currently training up someone to join Leyla on Friday Chat so we’ll aim to have two mods on from next week. Thank you for being so patient with us, as usual <3

    I just worry for leyla because of how busy it can get and the pressure it probably is. Leylas amazing but Friday threads are a lot for one person ahah, It's good next week should have two though

    Its not to compensate, if the mix didn't need to close the chats they wouldn't have. They don't have anything to compensate for, the friday threads are still running because they know that this change is sudden and hard. Not all mods are trained to do Friday threads.
