I'd like to be added to this group please - but I can't seem to PM jhakademus. Could someone PM me if they are able to add people in? I don't want to post my number.
Me too. Is the group still active?

Jhakademus only made 8 posts here from Jan to Mar 2018, never to be heard from again. The odds of the OP reading your post is virtually nil, I'd guess.

Publically listing your phone number on the open forum is not a wise idea. Harvester bots will pick it up and resell it to anybody looking for valid number to spam.

Maybe a telegram group would be a better idea since you can add by usernames and not reveal personal numbers :)

It’s almost as if you did not read the previous post. It is so dangerous to post your phone number on a public forum where anyone can get ahold of it. You are making yourself vulnerable to spam and hackers.

Good idea, I created a telegram group:

It is better to mask the number in quote. Else even if the original user edits his/her post and removes the number, it still remains in your quote.

We have four members now so it's a good start. Hopefully will organise a meetup soon but would like to add a few more people.
