Its just not working out is it? The layout is absolutely pants. I agree with everything you have said dobes. Its so cold and sterile. The only way it is working for me is that I already have a deep connection to you guys, but that is frustrating as thatvos on the wane. Idk what is going to happen but I don't hold out much hopecdadly. They took something wonderful and left us with this. I know when I want support it is gonna be hardcto get it. Conversely its gonna be hard to know when my friends are in distress too. Idk what to do about it tbh

please don't give up yet - we are all still the same people with the same issues! the layout is shit and there are so many things changed but hey we're beepers we can survive anything right?

Absolutely Irish but I feel less and less inclined to come here, it feels pretty barren to me even tho love is trying to keep it going

Yes! Barren! That's exactly how it feels. But as Irish said..."we can survive anything". Hell, we live with mood swings don't we???? So let's keep on keeping on. Soon some of our other friends will find a way on here too. I miss them, hope they can get their password problems straightened out. In the mean time, let's hit the beach in the BP lounge. I brought some floaty toys we can play with. Remind me not to bite too hard 'cause I have a tendency to deflate them. Ok....let's go...surf's UP!!!

Sinking ship ? Sounds familiar. You must have been reading my post lol! I say get the lifeboat which is Facebook & get talking to people on there like I do. At least on facebook there is a chat function & it is easy to read & navigate around. Everyone is leaving DS or not coming on at all because of the new layout so there just isn't the support there used to be anymore. As I stated n a previous post a lot of people left DS even before it changed it's design & set up support groups on facebook etc. What is that telling everyone ?

I just joined here like a month ago because Dobiedots recommended it to me and now everyone seems to be leaving because they decided to change the site... maybe make it a more inviting color like Orange or something. I don't know

dobiedots 07/02/2016

we'll get people back on board. There are a lot of people that are having password problems and can't get on.
I'm on FB but it's not the same at all. I'd rather talk BP stuff on here. I don't think people were leaving before the big change. I didn't see anyone leave. We have to give this a chance, as frustrating as it may be. Change is always hard and confusing. So....let's keep at it. And maybe, just maybe they'll get rid of this godawful GREY color. It's depressing in itself.
And where are all of my PHOTOS? Has anyone found their photos????

olenka1 07/02/2016

Yes the colour scheme does need to be a lot better. The people who can't get on because of password issues will more than likely either give up trying to get on or once they do get on will have the same issues as everyone else, so they will end up leaving due to getting so frustrated with the new look DS.
