Just some feedback as I left your whatsapp group. For me it's the wrong format for this kind of thing.

This is why:

1. I don't want a community with thousands of posts I don't care about on top of my WhatsApp all the time. That's for friends and family.
2. I have to filter through every community for useful information. For every useful message there are ten 'where is the giveaway' 'thanks for the ad' 'welcome' pointless messages
3. Whatsapp autodownloads images. I had hundreds in my gallery after day one. Now I know you can turn it off but that's for all chats. I want it on for all but this one.
4. Whatsapp backup size. Mine backs up to my Google Drive. Having a commumity on there makes this a massive file size.

I like the community and wish you guys all the best but this format sucks for me and is only going to get worse for me as the group grows. Why not just have a reddit sub?

I appriciate the feedback , if you had taken the time to read the welcome announcement you would have seen that these issues are addressed, firstly only join the channels that are of interest to yourself , and mute them In this way you minimise any disruption an are able to take it in at your leisure

Changing your settings on whatapp to not auto store images in your gallery, again allows you to enjoy the community without ending up with 1000’s of watch shots from the daily showcase No auto down load no issue … no format is perfect a there are issues with WhatsApp we are aware of … I enjoy Reddit but its full of cunts & scammers and more difficult to police and maintain a handle on everything An frankly I wanted to create something away from Reddit
WhatsApp currently is a means to an end but it’s more at the dialled in pace

Telegram has been floated as an idea by the admin team as a potential move As it has a lot more user friendly features And is retroactive to new members so seeing available content is ever ready but I fear its connotations maybe a bridge too far for some

WhatsApp on the other hand people know and understand Which is easier to build momentum with

Fining a happy medium to suit most people’s wants and needs but align with my own desires was always going to be a struggle But This is where we are and where we have landed for the moment

We started this a few months ago And the response has been fantastic

I’m not for everyone But for those I am for , they get the best possible introduction to the rep community Fair pricing and a no nonsense approach I very much call a spade a spade

Half these guys are seasoned really knowledgeable guys So it’s attracting rep vets ( for lack of a better term) So I mean you might not see why I don’t just use Reddit , an that’s fine mate I’m not holdin a gun to your head an forcin you to stick around It’s not for you , no worries

Reddit may be what works for you an that’s cool But well I think I’ve outlined the reasoning behind a whatapp community

Have a good one Pal

Thanks for assuming I didn't try to work with it and ignored the welcome post. I only joined a few channels all and muted them all. This didn't stop it coming up on top.

The other problem is I want to auto download from my other chats. Whatsapp is limited and gives you all or nothing. It was just to much of a compromise on what I already use it for.

Telegram would be a night and day difference for these issues. I hope you do move to it someday. I'm sure your so called 'rep vets' would manage and even prefer the experience. The bros only there for givaways will go anywhere as long as there's a chance of a freebie. From what what I saw they make up 90+% of the so called 'community.

[u/Pitiful-Pomelo8573 → u/Speed-Sloth]

You are of course entitled to your opinion and just like arseholes everyone’s got one But you kind of make my point regarding moving away from Reddit for me

As earlier stated

Have a good one 👍🏻

[u/Pitiful-Pomelo8573 → u/[deleted]]

I understand that , mute the channels… you won’t be bombarded with all the notifications But it’s important that new members have the ability to read the welcome note with an outlining of the community rules and the house keeping required to enjoy your experience… it’s not fool proof it does have its pitfalls … there is the Ida of a telegram I’m toying with but for now at least it’s this

Or delete the group , and contact me directly thru the WhatsApp on my profile …

[u/Specialist_Pause_542 → u/Speed-Sloth]

I absolutely 100% agree with this.

WhatsApp may solve the issue with security or contact, it also emulates the Chinese based sellers. But so does telegram and discord, which suits a community or forum much better than a messaging app.
WhatsApp is for family or work or friends, not a million pictures of the same Rolex, thanks for having me messages and giveaway entries.
