Hello, angels! Today, weâre having to make the tough decision to close Wilmington. We appreciate everyoneâs time and all the effort put into making this group as fun and as good as it was! A lot of things came up last month personally for all mods and we had to take a step back. So we truly believe starting anew is the best way to go at the moment.
As the holidays are just around the corner, we've made the decision to suspend activity checks until the new year to ensure everyone focuses on spending time with their families and loved ones. We will perform an activity check on January 5th of 2025 and then go back to our regular activity (3 posts a week to complete activity, as stated in ur guidelines). We encourage everyone to post as much as they'd like but are offering this flexibility to people who are traveling, hosting friends and families and whatnot. Thanks for continuing to stay with us!
