JetBlast Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Just had a though - I think the PM function on this forum can support group chat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetBlast Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Saying that though if the function of the group is to chat about meeting for some beers something like FB or WhatsApp might be better? If we need to message whilst traveling there it might be easier to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D32 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I think WhatsApp is probably the best option. If someone could set it up, please let me know so I can forward some details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leighmarsh151084 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Been pretty quiet on here lately. Hell of a lot going on. Sold the house for starters. Thought I would cash in whilst I can with the uncertainty going around.Still patiently waiting. 3 months is relatively a short period I guess, but it's starting to feel like forever now. Fingers crossed us November/December folk hear something very soon. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jon. My wife uses group chats on Messenger to keep in touch with her friends. They use it all the time to arrange get togethers. Just a thought.

Jenki75 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Good Morning or is it Afternoon for you guys? I just woke up and see we were voting for a way to stay in touch outside of Poms. I feel most comfortable with Facebook messenger . I've never used WhatsApp. Sorry for the late reply but with the time difference it can be tricky.

The waiting is crazy, but you never know whats around the corner. You could get a grant at anytime because they are so random when selecting cases. I feel like I could be the last one to be granted.

Kunal Aj Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Hi Guys, I think Whatsapp is more convenient. I have been added into a 489 group of India where almost 250 members are there who are already in Adelaide. Recently, due to no space to add more people they have started moving to Telegram. Can anyone please tell me in which application the group has started?? Cheers!! Edited March 20, 2019 by Kunal Aj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
