Just not the same

Hullo, Carole. I dont know what you think but I think things will look up now. People have been discussing the disappearance of familar faces but somehow, I cant really explain, but things could work out for the good eventually. Of course, it will take time, but lots of nice newbys coming in. I think that there were people that wanted something from the site that it couldn't give but we still have the friendship going on. i have been upset by certain names disappearing but think, after all the unpleasantness recently, time for "new Blood."

Important thing that people coming in with big problems, will be met by friendly support. Always space for a laugh but I think King and Berwick do really well in that field. Love annieseed xx Ever hear from Gordon?

hi caroleoctober,agree with u ,and how are u,any word on ur op yet,take care

Hang in there Carol, I think things are starting to improve again, I can feel it in my bones. What's the point in leaving when there's still great people here.

I haven't been about much as I'm trying to fix my car and busy with other stuff. Hang in there Carole, I'm sure it will pick up. Two general forums, ( Where we chat about anything from the News to what's on TV type of ones ) I am a member of, are very quiet at the moment. I think it's just the time of the year.

Hang on in there Carole. Things are looking up. It takes time to adjust so don't give up.xxxx

I agree Carole. I really miss the ones who have left. The site just isn't the same now.

Many of the members are on holiday, looking after grandchildren, some have returned with new names. The weather has been nice enough to sit out during the evening rather than in front of computer. I have welcomed 70 new members this month. Let's look to the future, look after each other and keep this happy site together

Carole, I know what you mean, but things DO change and life evolves. I agree

With Dall05 - we should all stick together. To want a better site and want to leave is

counter-intuitive. Please give the new people a chance to express themselves.

These sites are just like us, organic and they grow and change. Hang on in there, we

need people like you. Chin up.....Adrian

I haven't been here much over the summer I've just been very busy, and thankfully I've been well. I don't know what's been going on but I hope no one has been hurt or made feel they were unwelcome. When I joined the site a year or so ago I was overwhelmed by the warm welcome and the friendly helpful advice I received, and it saddens me to think that those who made me feel so welcome may be gone.

I joined couple of weeks ago and was made welcome

Think of the computer illiterate people(like me) who struggled to get on the old pages never mind these new ones! Sometime I try for hours and then just walk away.

I am still about, pop on every couple of days, just to catch up on the posts. But miss the old faces, like others whilst computer literate don't find this community forum that straight forward, so understand that sometimes others struggle. I also don't post so much because I got fed up of trolls and the nit picking I saw from time to time. My own personal life has enough of that without coming on here and reading it. So I tend to only post when I have something funny or daft to write about then.

I miss the funny jokes but also really need help from time to time regarding meds etc.

the old site had two distinctive sides. 1 for medical questions and 1 for blogs, funnies

and peoples news.

I used to look for the funnies when I was just feeling a bit low but used the questions when I was worried about my health. Now I don't know where to look! everything is mixed up.

Hi Ptliverpool,

If you look at the right hand side of this page (nearer the top) you will see a list of topics, eg Humour, COPD etc. Just click on one of those and you will find all the related posts, so you can still read nothing but the funnies if that's what you want, or more serious topics if you need information.
