The LostAParent Community: a place to share your grief

What Do You Want to See?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Improvements to the LostAParent Community are a long time coming. I have not been able to spend a whole lot of time on this site due to school and my transition into what my friends call "The Real World". Now that I am settled in, I have started to draw up some plans for where I would like to take the Community.

This Community is not about me, though. It's about you. What would you like to see on this site? The sky is the limit and no idea is a bad idea.

So click here and take a few minutes to share your ideas.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Thanks,
Stu

We're Back!

Welcome back to the LostAParent Community. After a week or two of downtime, we're officially back on our brand new server, hosted by the excellent and highly recommended Dreamhost.

Unfortunately, we lost quite a bit of data in the transfer. I salvaged as much as I possibly could. I'll be doing work in the next few weeks to finally finish up this site's construction. Thank you all for being so patient so far.

As always, I encourage you to head over to the LostAParent Community Forums.

Best,

Stu

It's here!

Well, I've decided to make the development site live after filling in the "about page" for the time being. You are looking at the new LostAParent Community!

Thanks for being here.

In the next few weeks, I'll be finishing up improvements to the site. I'll spare you the technical details, but I plan on:

* updating the "about page" (which means revamping our story -- written almost 3 years ago -- as well as adding some new information about the site, including our terms of service, et cetera),
* creating a system to allow community members to suggest grief resources,
* creating a help section to make using the site easier,
* putting up a page explaining the benefits of registration,
* fixing up the Community Forums (making them fit into the new site, among other things), and
* some backend work that you probably won't notice, but which will improve the site nonetheless.

Once again, we would like to thank you for being here and sharing with us.
