I hope you will change your mind. This place will not be the same without you!

Suvivor,

Maybe you can give yourself a little time to get used to and familiar with the new site. Anything new always takes time to get adjusted to. Hopefully with a little time and practice you will become familiar with the new site, and all your friends and journals, and groups will be there so it won't seem so bad.

Wishing you the best,
Sonny

Please don't leave Drena, your such a sweetheart. I truly enjoy your posts. Hugs, johnnyboy

I took a look and was quite unimpressed, and mostly because it seems to be single-column and that makes it very difficult to read on a wide screen.

I hate it!! Don't know if I will be able to get used to it or not!

I think if you give it a bunch of time trying it the site will grow comfortable for you....hugs bill

Does anyone know when the old site is going away??

I have not heard of a change over date as of yet.

I haven't even tried the new site yet. I so dislike change.

I am with you mollgirl. i dis like change as well.....I do not see a point in changing this site..it works the way it is.....just need to bring back the chat feature. but they say they do not have the money for it.......I am very confused

An embedded chat that works on any device without ever needing anything extra like "Flash" or whatever can easily be added for free for up to 10 people at a time by using Chatroll, and it only costs $20.00 per month to raise that limit to 100. Users would be able to sign in as "Guests" or with Facebook, Chatroll or Twitter, and SSO (Single Sign-On with DS UUIDs) could even be made to work. Anyone who says chat is either too difficult or too expensive to add either knows very little about how to do so or else just does not want to do it at all.

note: If others here would like to see that at work and/or would like to have an easy-to-use chat available, just let me know and I will post a link to an ad-hoc "DS Depression Forum Chat".

I did not like it at first but I've been over there quite a bit . it takes some getting used to but then again, so did this site when I first joined.

Yeah, what's up with the new site? I checked it out the other day and didn't really like it, but I will probably use it anyway. Hopefully, they will have chat, though. I know a lot of members miss the chat feature.

I just saw this post and I hope you don't mind my adding my 2 cents ... I am no tech savvy AT ALL

So when I first saw it I wanted to run.. I felt very badly however I have been there for a while now and am using it for a little everyday and it has made a huge difference... Just taking the time to get familiar with it

I think if people just take a little time you will be surprised that it isn't awful... There are just some differences that fall into place as you grow more familiar

I think we can help each other along on this journey... Big hugs....xo
