i saw so many different dates, even as close as last week. The Internet I tell you.
That is what happens when people find some kinda "Bacchanal Sensational" News and repost it for clicks and likes, and DON'T cite their sources or the original date it was reported oor ocurred.
Something we make great effort on this platofrm to avoid.
we will flag is is MISLEADING where we find such instances. and Further in the forums we have started to implement a new feature called "HOW I KNOW THAT" to encourage posters to cite their sources or say how they know what they are posting.
just because some "person" makes or posts a video on SM or their own website - does not make it truth and we must be intentional about considering the sources and vetting information we choose to share.
WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT WE NOW ALLOW GUEST ACCESS TO THE CHAT.

We considered deleting the group chat, but decided against it. So Instead it will be put in mothballs and it will be INACTVE.
However, the BounXup CENTRAL CHANNEL ADMIN account managed by volunteers will remain to post announcements & notices about events, livestreams etc.
WE FIND THIS NECESSARY FOR A FEW REASONS: From a personal standpoint it is proving challenging to manage so many different chats on so many platforms, and it dilutes our focus and time from the ones that matter and that we have invested mega time & resources into.
Also as T&T election 2025 season looms it is becoming more challenging to have candid conversations as a group in those spaces without prying eyes (even if people are not subscribed they can read our entire group chat) and the lurking unseen trolls can and Have taken screen shots of our posts and distribute them to chaos agents.
We know most of you got on Telegram ONLY because it was the only way to call, text or chat with many of us away from YouTube Livechats, and who are not and don't want to be (looking at YOU Pt C Sharo) on Trinbago’s "NATIONAL" APPs (Whatsapp & Facebook) 😏😉 and WETOTALLY APPRECIATE YOU FOR THAT. It’s been awesome fun being on Telegram with all the peeps.
FOR THOSE WHO CARE TO, we can continue to lime & chat (like we used to on "De Alley") on the
MODERATORS ON HERE HAVE THE ABILITY TO MARK POSTS AS "MISLEADING" THE BUTTON FOR MARKING A POST AS "MISLEADING" IS LOCATED ON THE "EDIT" POST BUTTON MENU AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH POST
Just a quick note to let you all know that we have added a couple new Pages (Forums) to the platform. These Pages will be dedicated to particular "Subject Matters" that we felt were important enough to not get lost in the mix of "general discussions" and needed to have a specific area for those kinds of posts.
MONEY MATTERS - Discussions on Family Finance, Budgets, Cost of Living, investments, etc.
NEIGHBOUR OYE! Community Watch - Discussions on community safety, community watch programs, police and govt initiatives related to keeping our communities safe and thriving. it is part of our NEIGHBOUR OYE! | BUSS-A-MARKSECTION where you can of course find our
PRIVATE ANONYMOUS BUSS A MARK Page where you can post TOTALLY INCOGNITO

MARKETPLACE - A forum to showcase products and services that our community members and others are offering, from arts and crafts to consultations andCAREER Opportunities The Market place can be found under BOUNXUP BUSINESS CENTERSECTION of the Forums

Enjoy!

ok cool still understanding how it works. was wondering why buss a mark was next to it but couldn't remove it.
No worries. It takes a little getting used to. But before you know it, you''ll be moving and merging threads yourself!
But to explain: BUSS A MARK is the Forum (section) you created the thread in. Didn't think you wanted to "Buss a Mark" or post anonymously but then realised the Forum that was more apropos for your missive was "hidden" so you didn't really have too many options.
But go brave... even if a thread is "misplaced" it is easy to relocate it.
p.s. if you want to test out features like post anonymously etc, go over to the Geek Squad Sandbox section (for Moderators & Admins) over in the GEEK ZONE You should have access to that now.
