Upcoming change - dormant communities

We are releasing a process today that will notify leaders of a community and let them know the following:

  • After 7 days of no posts being created in their community, we will let them know how many members the community has and that it would be great if they posted something. The hope is to get posts in dormant communities. Imagine going through our onboarding process, finding a community that looks great only to find that it's dead. We want to avoid this.
  • Three days later, if a post still hasn't been made we let you know one last time that a post needs to be made or we will de-list your community. This means it will not show up in onboarding or browse communities. It will however show up in search.
  • Three days later, if a post still hasn't been made, we will de-list the community and notify the leaders of the community.

We will not email about this after this, but if a post is made, we will re-list the community.

Note: In the future we will enforce a time limit on communities that if they go dormant for too long, they will be taken back by Imzy and allowed for someone new to have them. We will be fully transparent about this time line and get your feedback on it before enacting this policy.
