Since Tribe has been having difficulties I realized it would suck to lose good places like this and the people in them. So I got proactive and made a "backup" site called Tribe Refugees, which includes some discussion groups to parallel favorite tribes.

I've created a Feminists, Not Man-Haters Group as part of the larger Tribe Refugees network. You can use the site as a place to:
- chat during the donut times
- "backup" your Tribe contacts
- retreat to should Tribe just finally kick it

You need to first signup for the site (Tribe Refugees), then join the Group (Feminists, Not Man-Haters -- which is just a matter of clicking the Join Now link).
Feminists, Not Man-Haters: triberefugees.ning.com/group/...nhaters
Tribe Refugees: triberefugees.ning.com/

If you'd like more information about the Tribe Refugees site:

Please note: the site/group was intended to support this tribe, NOT compete or detract from it. I just thought you guys might like to know about it so you can bookmark it, or signup to squat your space, or go ahead and participate. :)
