Improvements are coming

Andrew replies on 2/26/2013 2:50 pm: Yah, I really hate the "Community" section on the main page... it is being worked on to remove the silly example groups and blogs. Are you referring to the 3 sample blogs at the top right of the page? I kind of forget what the algorithm I used there... I think it's related to blogs that have a threshold of posts recently and have a user photo. Do people really have drama for how they get in that? Agreed 'Community' section is horrible as is. Sorry for confusion. No problem whatsoever with the three blogs at top of page which are rotated. All trouble, (and there is a lot, ask anybody) stems from the 'Active Blogs (by unique responses)' list... as it is in numerical chart form it causes competitive blogging. What I am suggesting is that the most active blogs are laid out differently, rotated randomly, with number counts only available via individual blogs, not in 'top of the pops chart' form. Personally this would be my number one wish for blogland as it would avoid so much trouble, which detrimentally affects the mood here on a monotonously regular basis.

I just think that the competitive nature of the blogs sucks (pun intended) the fun right out of it! Those of us who like to blog for pure "shits and giggles" and love those who also blog that way...are finding that there is far too much "finger wagging" and "huffity puffity" from the "blog elite". I would love to go and visit some of the lower end of the blog list...but find that I can go no further down than page one. This severely limits the types of blogs I can peruse. And...as a blogger who resides on a page much lower than one...it certainly limits the number of watchers or readers with whom I can communicate with! I love "new finds"! And never tire of finding demented little bloggys with laughs to spare! I'm happy that you're trying to straighten things up here...I've been here for more than a few years myself...and love the interaction with other people who share my warped sense of humor! Smooches!

Anderw, I'd like to welcome you back. I'm not the only one that feels this way from what I've read but things went to hell in a hand basket when you left and Penthouse took over. I've been a Gold Paying member for a very long time, not as long as Koffla, but still a long time, and I agree with everything he said. I do have some issues as do others. A few weeks ago I wasn't able to see the old home page. The prompts to take me back didn't work. I called customer service the man I spoke to didn't know what he was doing, nor do most of the people trying to help you. If something doesn't work just clear out your cookies, and cache. This might help in some cases but not all. When I told him that wasn't the cause he did nothing but argue with me. I must not of been the only one to complain because the problem was fixed with in two hours. The second problem I have that for some reason most of my setting have been changed, from the activities, to my renewal date. I for one would like to see the activities area go away. I don't like it, and I don't use it. About the redesign of the home page. I like the way I can see everything at a glimpse on the old homepage. I don't like having to click on one tab to see this, and then click on another take to see something else. I don't see how that's an improvement over the current homepage. On the new home page it gives me things that I could care less about. I dislike the Members Activity, Global, Near You, and Community on the new home page. This is nothing but distracting, and again I have to go from one tab to another to get where I want to so. This makes no rhyme or reason to me. The new mail feature is terrible. I always thought you should be able to keep any emails you got for as long as you wanted. I did not like that after three months? they were taken away. I also don't like the fact that if I want to attach my profile to an email I can no longer do it. The previous version was just fine, so why change it? I use to blog quite a bit but stopped, and now I go to my favorite bloggers read what they have to say, and make comments. But from what I'm reading here most of the complaints your getting are from the bloggers. I'm sorry to burst their bubble but there are others on the site that don't blog that are unhappy with things too. It's time they listen to all not just bloggers. This is a social site as you said, it's not just a bloggers site as I would believe after reading many of the comments. Again, it's good to have you back. I hope you stay for a long time, and change Hookup.Date Naughty Affair Dating back into the site it use to be. Again, I think Koffla said it very well "It think your timing is too little too late. Hookup.Date Naughty Affair Dating with their lousy service and incompetence already lost a huge chunk of their long term loyal paying customers. I've been here long enough [13 years as a gold member] to know nothing will ever change, in fact, they are worse than ever. Ever heard of "never bite the hand that feeds you, because it will be the same hand that chokes you to death?" The site is grasping at straws. The site basic functionality issues are the worst I've ever seen in this place, too many site problems. It will take a complete site overhaul and working basic features for me to pay ever again. Talk is cheap, I'll believe it when I see it. Welcome back." Thank you for taking the time to listen. We have two lives, and the second begins when we realise we have only one - Confucious
