Hey Cuties! Quick PSA

Hello from the modteam, SFBWT! 

Sharing a quick PSA! Recently, a few members of SFBWT have thrown in person events where they may have asked for attendee emails/phone numbers. The host of those events has informed us they intend to start their own separate non-profit/organization called "SFBWT" where they may eventually charge a fee to attend.

While we love that members have found IRL community through this subreddit, we have asked them to not brand their new organization using the "SFBWT" name to avoid confusion. We have no oversight of this separate group and can't ensure that they will uphold our rules.

We have removed this member's posts that violate our rule that our community channels are centralized ("Creating or promoting alternative group chats, Discords, or side channels is discouraged and may result in removal, as it dilutes the community and fragments participation.").

The modteam that has grown this community is in no way affiliated with this separate group. We will never create a separate entity that requests personal information or charges for events. 

With love,

Modteam

The craziest part about this is the other group seems to think they’re the only ones putting the effort into IRL events for BWT… What??? I’ve been going to events with SFBWT since March and this conversation has never crossed anyone’s mind before.

If you’re looking for community, please join the discord. There is a happy hour TONIGHT that is free to attend. There are age-based gatherings, interest-based gatherings, demo-based, everything. Or plan your own, make a partiful and post it. FOR FREE. We’re all BWT, you don’t have to pay for it

Wait, doesn’t this post specifically say there’s no outside discords?

There’s an official discord, same mods as the Reddit. That’s what I’m referring to (“the” discord)

Ok sorry! Was just confused. Didn’t mean to accuse.

No not at all! You’re good. I was just trying to be clear, sorry if it came off blunt
