I have just been notified to major changes on the Grou.ps platform which hosts our Reformed Particular Baptist Fellowship at:
http://grou.ps/particularbaptist/
Due to these changes which include a move to a subscription basis for our group to continue to exist as is, it looks likely that the fellowship will close. There will be a free option, however, that option includes an open membership (anyone can join, post anything – spam, etc, and all content will be open for anyone to see). It is looking likely that there will be no more community associated with particularbaptist.com.
We do however have a page on Facebook at:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/particularbaptistcom/248174206192
The problem with this page is that it also an open type of page, with anyone that ‘likes’ the page becoming a member of it – there is little way of moderating activity, etc. I think that particularbaptist.com will have to go back to an older way of doing things, with a forum, chat, etc – all on different platforms.
It seems that there are shake ups right across the World Wide Web on community type sites – even Google Groups are changing, making Google an impossible alternative also.

I have now deactivated all my Grou.ps except this one – which effectively renders them useless and deleted. This one will be heading this way at the start of November when the changes take effect.
