Hi ladies! Are you a woman (27+ years of age) in Metro Vancouver and would like to chat, make friends, and support each other? We’d love to capture welcome you to join us! We are an exclusive online Discord community comprised of local women and we also hangout irl when our schedules align. We are a sweet bunch and once you get to know us, we are mildly to mid-unhinged, so apologies for the menacing poster. We hope that it showcases our light-hearted humour, creativity, and level of unhingedness!
Here are some answers to potential questions:
What is the group like?
We are a group of women mostly between 27 and 33 years old, although the next biggest group of us are between 34 and 40. Our active members are mostly in the Vancouver area, including North Van, Kitsilano, East Van, Burnaby, and Richmond (shoutout to our craziest member who makes the trek from Maple Ridge to hang out with us!)
We can go off the rails a bit in harmless fun and banter. Therefore we eagerly welcome sassy, unfiltered, unhinged kin alike. However we are also friendly and supportive of one another, although some light hearted competition is encouraged when the occasion calls (such as in online Discord games). If you are a woman who is looking to make new connections with other women we'd love to hear from you and add some new personalities to our warm little huddle against the Vancouver freeze. We are extra interested in scientists, doctors, financial advisors, and interior decorators as we are underrepresented in these professions. We are also looking for film investors 😄
Here are some actual quotes from the group:
- This discord helps build a base of rapport and it’s so much easier when we do meet
- I only went to maybe 3 [events in other reddit groups] before abandoning. it's so much cozier in here!
- This server has been really nice and it’s been great to meet some of you in person! I didn’t really have a concept of what it meant to be in a discord server but now that I’m used to it I look forward to participating
- You guys are also really funny, you make me laugh a lot
- I’m glad to be here with all of you. It is hard to make friends.
- I already love the vibe of this discord server so much
- It’s a really great space the way you designed it and the members are all so lovely and interesting. I really appreciate the space you have created for us just the way it is
- hiiii this is the cutest discord
Why Discord? I've never used it!
Discord is a social platform that lets us create multiple chat channels for different topics, which means different concurrent conversations can happen. Discord also gives us an easy way to discuss, plan, and organize events! This is especially helpful because we are a dynamic group of women with varying interests, hobbies, and backgrounds, so we like to yap on an array of different topics. We also like to play online games together (Wordle, online puzzles, and Magic Gardens so far), host book clubs, give tarot readings, and get together for in-person events.
Several members had never used Discord before and they enjoy learning to use it. Here are some actual quotes:
- I like discord because I get stressed out about interrupting people in big groups. I still enjoy meetups but I'm more comfortable talking here
- This is my first time using discord, so many neat features
- Discord can do so many things I never even imagined
Why only for Metro Van women 27+?
The group is specifically for women in their late 20s and up because we wanted a space where people in a similar stage of life can relate to each other more easily, such as career, relationships, and adulting.
I like the vibes and I would like to join! What should I do?
If you identify as a women, are 27+ years of age, and live in Metro Vancouver, and would like to join us our crazy cult, please send me a quick intro about yourself and I'll send an invite your way. Please be patient as I go through the messages.
PS: If you are a previous or current inactive member, we have missed you and you are always welcome back!
