WhatsApp Communities is a new way to organize WhatsApp groups under one umbrella and connect all sub-group members.
Purpose: This WhatsApp Community was created with a simple but meaningful purpose: to build connections among us, to share useful information, support one another, and create a space where neighbours can meet, communicate, and feel part of something.
Everyone who joins agrees to one basic but essential rule: kindness and courtesy at all times. Healthy discussions and different points of view are welcome—disagreement can even be enriching—but must always remain respectful and constructive.
This is a space for building, not breaking. People who repeatedly post comments that undermine the efforts of the community, dismiss the positive energy of others, or oppose community actions without offering thoughtful alternatives, may be removed from one or all groups they participate in.
We understand that not everyone will agree on everything, but we ask that those who wish to be part of this group do so in the spirit of collaboration, not conflict.
Let’s protect what we are building together.
WhatsApp Community works for us in the following way:
Announcements: Upon joining the La Montañosa Info Community on WhatsApp, you will be signed up to receive Announcements only. Only admins can send information through this channel. Announcements are reserved for important updates. Replies are possible (no sound of notification), but no one else can post here. So if you are only interested the general information and don't want to hear from other people, stay in the Community for the Announcements only.
Group Structure: Within a WhatsApp Community, you'll find different sub-groups that you can join based on your interests. In these sub-groups, all members can send messages. No moderation is planned at this moment. If you don't want to be disturbed by notification sounds, you can join a group and mute the notifications. This way, you'll still have access to the information in the group without the noise of incoming alerts.
Flexibility: You have the option to be signed up solely for important announcements or to join as many groups as you wish. New sub-groups can be added to connect people with similar interests.
No archive: Please note, you can only see messages sent after you have joined the group.
Hopefully, this setup can provide us with a structured platform for communication and ensure that information reaches everyone efficiently.
If you haven't been added to the community, it might be because you didn't give me your number or permission, or there was an issue with your phone number (or your number is not assigned with WhatsApp). If you'd like to join, please fill in the form on La Monatonsa Info website again: https://www.lamontanosainfo.com/
