Group Support suggestions from members
Hello there. I received a request from one of the regulars in Depression Support who asked me to post this through as a suggestion for the support rooms:
"I was on another depression site and we were making jokes about sharing time together, and I know here they have guided discussions sometimes, so I was wondering if we could maybe have other events.. for example, one night a week a movie night?"
"thanks roadie - i know it would take some adjustments but we could put a movie accessable through youtube or something and set a standard time to view it and discuss, or have a dance night with music, i dunno, i just thought it might b nice for us to gather here for fun sometimes, bc lots of us have nowhere to go oand noone to enjoy things with"
This is a great idea
That could be good or games like tic tac toe or something
Hey everyone :) I'm not sure if it's possible to maybe think about safety in the groups ! I guess I can see how it's great to get people sharing ! My concerns are that without a Mod managing the group it can leave members and guest at risk not only with triggers ! Iv seen comments from people using the rooms that are sexually violating and very upsetting ... If possible I think groups for members should only have a open door when a Mod is in the room ! Teens shouldn't have to manage some of the things iv seen and I understand that they can mute people which is great ! I still have concerns that it could be effecting them ! I trust that the aim of 7 cups is to provide a safe supporting place for everyone !
An open door to member support rooms when only a moderator is in the room. Now there's an idea! I'm unsure of how it would work at some times with a lack of moderators but it's an idea for consideration.
I think that this is a good idea, and for games type things, there are online sites where you can create games rooms which you would need a password to enter into... this could be opened for a set amount of time whilst being overwatched by a mod or two... this kind of thing would be no more or less risky than having a group chat...
