Re: no more "mea culpas"?


What would solve those problems and be workable for the GWL is a Facebook Group, not a Page. A Page is like a brochure of sorts promoting whatever the Page is about. A Group is more like a chat room with three levels of privacy: Public is a Group that anyone can see and join and post. Private is a Group that people can search for and find and read but must ask to join. A Secret group is not findable by searching, people must ask to join and only the members of the secret group can read or post to the group. Each type of group can have several Admins who can add and delete people as desired, delete posts, etc. I am an Admin for several Pages and Groups, and once it is set up there's not much Admin stuff to do.

My family was in crisis mode with very sick preemie grandbabies and updates on them were posted all the time. I wanted that to be private, but Facebook would not let me keep the two accounts apart.
