Let's make an TDF Whatsapp Group
Subbed, keep me posted.
Telegram instead of Whatsapp.
D
Not all are on Telegram and many won't prefer to have an extra chat app.
Better file sharing and group options.
D
I do agree on that as I am using it myself but the thing is we need to understand that most of the members are already on whatsapp.
hangouts
please, it has pc support as well as phone

Whatsapp do have an web version I guess.
that is a disgrace to actual pc support
I'm up for it on one condition.
No forwarded jokes, I mean no copy-pasted joke at all.
Like, never ever...

Yes, then let's vote for Whatsapp, Telegram and Hangouts
I will make sure that no put trash there and will show no mercy to these peoples.
I am in Techenclave whatsapp group and they seems to be doing great there.- - - Updated - - -
I am not finding an option for Poll. So keeping this as manual contest. Standings as of now: 3x vote for Whatsapp, 1 for Telegram and 1 for Hangouts.
Reported for this. Mods would add it if you can't.
D
That's great. Thank you!
Not to kill the mood, but why is this actually required?, how it would be different from the forum?
y u guiz no <3 Hike? It is Indian. Telegram is Russian. You want Putin to read your texts or what?
des hike hav pc vursion ? if yus im in
Better Putin than Ambani.
D
It can be used for many purposes from fun to trivial discussions. It will be also easy for planning local meetups.
Please don't even consider Hike. The stickers and the nudge option.....

We already have a small group of TDF members on whatsapp. ~20 members. [MENTION=148045]anirbandd[/MENTION]
You want ot expand its horizon or want to keep it limited?
Its for... uh "playdate", there is another for CoC
really like hangouts idea, make new group for this

Check with Anirban. He is the admin and has organised information for the members. We can expand.

Though I have Hike, Telegram, Line etc. installed, they are on hibernate for ever..

Time to add another group 
So what you guys do on Whatsapp?
what? another whatsapp group???

Completed!
We have so many Whatsapp groups on TDF now.
This group is made to cater all of the members not just limited to some gaming group, etc.
Join us to know.
Whats the point of a group with a limit of 100? Use #krow or an offtopic thread. And I really don't get this infatuation with Chatting apps.
You'll find 100's of posts in the group and then it becomes difficult to follow. In the end you end up not reading it.

senpai pls, dont make us cri agin after what raaabo did
Not a regular here anymore. What did he do?
he banned the offtopic thread after repeated requests and/or counter request
offtopic thread

The Geeks need some place to procrastinate
Hell Yeah! Waiting for other members to join it and then we can have a lot of fun.
Done..
Ssk: Off-topic thread was difficult to manage due to all the not so off-topic posts. People use to abuse it heavily to avoid creating deserving threads.
Technically, it had bad impact on search engines and forum reputation, since new members found use to judge the forum from off-topic thread.
In short, too much hassle with the thread.

how about a off topic thread accessible only for members with 100+posts and free from search web crawler
Its a customized requirement. Don't even know if VBulletin supports it. Nevertheless it would be good if we can do such thing. For now an offtopic thread is on low priority than getting the forum bugs fixed, which sadly are still present.
I hope this post is the last offtopic post for this thread.
chatbox
Dunno about vbulletin but IPBoard has a feature where only a particular user group can access a sub forum which is normally hidden away from guest users and new users
Know about it as a forum that I use has implemented such sub forum
Sorry about going offtopic again
Seems a good idea but there is a limit of 100 people on whatsapp group
D
Added more people into the group. For the limit, I guess I can increase it with the jailbreaked version of whatsapp else we might switch to other app in future.
You are dead on both
Not dead, reading every word and catching up
still stuck in last to last wedneday
The group is functional now.
Hyper functional. Within 3 hours, i've received ~200 chat messages

Group is going too fast

Joined still no response on Whatsapp

Filled the form, No response yet
Current count : 41/100.

i have submitted my details..please add me also..
Amazing to see that the interest for Telegram is equivalent to IRC = Very low.
Though I am sure the users who didn't select Telegram just aren't aware of its advantages. If you can run WhatsApp you can surely run the true cross platform app Telegram.

Hike dude bro. It is the coolest. Stickers are so useful and saves lot of unnecessary typing.
I wanted to quote you with that nana patekar hike meme but couldnt find in google.
phew then it is at least not hogya tera
was it ab bhi time hai sudhar ja?
hike has stickers
a funny picture with text on it is an image macro
"meme" was originally coined by Richard Dawkins in the book The Selfish Gene in this manner

A smiley is supposed to depict one word. Or two or more words. Basically an emotion.
How is a sticker any different than smiley, only bigger?
To depict a sentence, you would need to type a sentence. A smiley or sticker can't make you avoid typing a full sentence.
Seems like you haven't see the stickers on hike lol

yeah. Whatsapp originally started as a paid service on iOS as soon as it got push notifications.
Everyone who got it for free are late to the party.

I signed up for it as well
Hey has anyone tried bleep ??? I read about it on internet.
D
Most won't prefer to keep a separate app than whats app just for TDF Group.
i switch off my data/wifi for a few hours, and then when i switch on, BAAM; atleast 600 messages on the group. ATLEAST. the most i have seen since the time i joined was 1000 texts in 9hrs.
in retrospect, my decision to put the group on 1 year mute was the best decision ever.
and a few days back, the dudes were discussing animal sexuality. i mean, WHAT???

Did that, right after joining the group.
I mute all my groups upon joining, depending on the group's activeness and contents shared, I unmute those.. But this group.. Nope, never!!
Can someone add me to the group on whatsapp.
I had to quit the group since it was eating in to my Mobile Data.

Have you filled the form? I am not seeing your details in it.
I caught up! No mute! Bring it on :gameface:
Last time I didn't give any details and I was added to the group without my permission.
I was ok with that anyways.
Now I have given my details in the sign up.
50+ and growing.
Whatsapp may send mails to the group admins to dissolve the group, as their servers are overloading.
Seems forum posts and comments have been reduced, because of the Whatsapp group.

Every time I bring my whatsapp out of Greenified mode the entire UI hangs for a few secs

Sorry. I had been inactive on Whatsapp for quite a time. I will notify the other admins about the new registrations and hopefully you will be added to the group soon.

All added to the group. Sorry for the delay.
I have applied. When can I expect to accepted?
when will I be accepted?

If we all shift to Hike/Telegram etc it will be much better. I wouldnt mind using 2 to 3 more Chat apps to form this TDF group. Btw i submitted the form

I vote for Telegram
Telegram has my vote. Me and a few others are already on telegram group.
I am already in Whatsapp Group. Add me in Telegram group too.
Is there a Telegram group? Just paste the Joinchat link here. Telegram is much better in all aspects .. No need to share your number, can be accessed on web and doesnt suck much like WhatsApp.
Biggest problem in what'sapp is images. It give the worst quality of images shared. Other than that, its fine.
You do realize that not every one uses wifi right? It compresses images to give smaller size.
whats joinchat??
You can see the joinchat link if you click on Add Member > Invite to Group via Link.
Lots of.
Rule is troll hard.
Should be Telegram, but majority likes WhatsApps.
Yes.
I am in Telegram group. And it have 11 members.
I invite [MENTION=1]Raaabo[/MENTION] in Telegram group.
Nah, not on telegram.
Though I was enthusiast at first and did provide my number and was not included the bolded line make me think that was good for me.

I will make sure that no put trash there and will show no mercy to these peoples.
was promised this though.

The group was under control till the time I supervised it. I am not on Whatsapp currently and it is not managed by me. So, don't really know what is going out there.
We should move the group to telegram. Reasons being:
1. Better privacy(telephone numbers directly not revealed if not saved as contact)
2. Truly Crossplatform and multi device support
3. Bots and better API support(coders among us can have fun)

Why not. What if I can help you decide which IM to is best for you?

In reality which client you end up using depends solely upon what your peers, specially your loved ones are using, 99% of the time its whatsapp.Why not. What if I can help you decide which IM to is best for you?

I believe in being a peer, and pivoting the ship to sail towards whats best and not be a sheep and follow the herd.
If technology enthusiasts like us don't do that, then I guess no one would.
The problem is that the usage of these apps does depend on your peers, most of the geeks actually liked Google+ more than facebook, and we all know what happened there. These are social apps, and the only governing factor here is the number of people in your circle using the app, no matter if a better app comes into market, if it doesn't have anyone to interact to, then it's just destined to be doomed.
loved ones will always use whataspp...but TDF members can use Telegram also
I have another POV. If 'love ones' can't use the IM you are using, they don't love you enough. xD
Lol.
Now everyone is gonna question is each other. Some breakups might happen.
Get ready to be blamed for. xD
That goes both ways
Not all times. That's like pushing your preference on your loved ones.
And to stuck on WhatsApp, just because your loved ones is using it, isn't pushing their preference on us?
I am sorry my friend, but you have a biased perspective, against your own self.
There is no point of discussing loved ones in this group...
and it won't affect to have another IM app for joining a group.
If everybody agrees lets create/join a TDF telegram group

We had a poll here and most of the members favored Whatsapp.
guys just my two paise on this.
I feel the forum is in a depressing state. If we move away all the discussions from here, I feel it will be dead. I think it already is.
Nothing against groups, but that's what I feel.

true. i second that.
the whatsapp group, although it brings the members closer, should serve as an off-topic thread kinda thing.
but its turning into what forum should be ideally.
D
It was created for off topic things only. People are using the group more as they find real time replies/solutions to their queries more easy which is does leading to reduction in number of discussions here. I have to agree with ico that TDF is dying. I am finding other forums more useful and active now-a-days. Although, these group also have their separate Whatsapp group but still their forum is doing good.
Indeed it is.
lots of old good members are gone.
forum count is decreasing and also the thread posts.
Why the thread title is still "Let's make an TDF Whatsapp Group "?
Is this working whatsaap group I just fill the form
keeping in mind the current state of the forum, I would urge the senior members to discourage any posts/questions apart from what can be classified as "Off Topic" in the WhatsApp group.
if anyone posts any such queries/posts, ask them to post on the forum.
Keep in mind that the group is a closed one, and has a limited reach, while the forum has a wider reach and audience.

I would disagree.. More and more members stopped visiting forums.. And this leads to lower activeness on forums.. And yeah this caused me to move away from forums.. And i feel others would have felt the same.
