I don't know if I will be commenting on my own post or this will be a new post. I am very angry about what is being done here. I realize it is not my site but it is getting so that it is too high tech for the average person. You try to rate and people don't build full profile pages for the most part because it is too technical and hard to understand. What's the point? Trying to be a topic exclusive rival of Twitter and Facebook? This is harder to navigate and even though it doesn't seem like it I have spent hours working on my profiles to have them turned upside down for fancy tech stuff. This is a social site but there is very little interaction going on anymore or customer friendly motivated additions. The Mark of Shame...really? Sounds juvenile to me. I can leave but I have spent years paying to be here so I am livid about all of this and for those who don't know what SSL is like I didn't because it isn't relevant to me here is a link to information and there is other stuff if you want to google. I want to be on an easily navigable site where instructions to make profiles are simple and don't sound like a foreign language and people can debate on a good forum board and not one where loonies come in and post silly questions or good ones that unknowledgeable people in charge close arbitrarily because they can. You watch, because I am complaining more or less I will have the nasties come in and tell me if I don't like it leave. That is on my possible bucket list and I have been here almost since the beginning because this and my other profile are not the first I have had. I was really angry when I saw this. I don't have the first idea how to fix anything on my profile including fonts because they are changed as well even though I have codes in there. My backgrounds are gone and I don't know how to fix it. I'm not asking because it will be a lot of techy gobbledegook. I'm not here for that. I came here to enjoy myself and learn from others but that has been distracted by the place being turned upside down over and over again since it has been open. The introduction page is a lie and should be changed. I know the community and when they come here they get insulted most of the time. Then loonies come in and say they are many lifetimes old or hundreds of years. Rational people including vampirics know that is BS. No one can be changed either and the majority of the community do not drink blood so there is contention between those who do and those who don't. I'm an older person who has had enought with this high tech stuff. I am simply tired of having to change things or have advertisements mess up my profiles. I don't like that on other sites either. I don't like one of my non fiction articles taken and put in the database without my permission and I acquiesced when I saw it there and let it go but that is copyright infringement. I don't want to hear the egregious comments that may come. I might and might not get past this but in the general workings of the place if it doesn't get more people friendly in how it works and the making of the profiles I will leave most likely. I rarely rate. I have been here on this profile for seven years and thousands have looked and out of that only 600 something have given me a rating. Why are they here in the first place if they aren't going to play the game? Then there are the belligerents that never got removed. BECAUSE everyone is free to rate as they wish even if it is done for the pure joy of being nasty. I guess I am tired of the upheavals no matter the motivations.
