Dear Daily Strength......
Why are you unresponive to our questions for help? Why don't you address the problems via a message to us, the members........? WHY?
I can't change/edit or fix stuff.........my last two journals were eaten by some big bad new daily strength site anti journal saving monster. I'm so tired of this big mess. I hate the way the new boards are. HATE.
Why would you drown us? Why don't you talk to us? I have not gotten any specific responses to my queries...........feel like I'm writing to no one. ARE YOU THERE?
What did we do that we do not hear from you? The site is a mess and we need to know what is happening. Seriously, please........please and please hear us.
There is so much awry that we are beyond broken............put it back together again. Fix our connection........please. Begging now.........hear us. Please hear us........
The other day I sat here and typed for an hour.......and then the whole thing disappeared. I hit publish and voila, everything vanished. Then I cried and went back to bed.
If you write to me I will answer you.........maybe not in an hour or a day.........and yes, it can take me days when I am stuck in bed sick.........but I will answer you at some point. I am wonky but I am not so wonky that I wouldn't somehow find a way to update you if I had recreated the site and many things were broken.
I wonder if the site is dying........actually dying? Since there is no one responding who can we talk to about this????
Let's write a letter to Dr. Oz and Miss Winfrey. They are a part of the Sharecare Family........we used to be too. I feel like a DS Orphan.
Sad in the South

Sweetheart, I can only agree with everything you said here. In fact, I'm so close to not using this site any more and that makes me feel so sad because the DS Support Groups and other friends here have been part of my life for just on 6 years. Keep hanging in there, Ruthie and hopefully, the site will improve. Love you xxxx
I totally understand how you feel. I am so sad about the site. I agree with everything you said. They are totally unresponsive. I've never seen anything so unprofessional. Let us know if you get a response at all. I have sent several complaints and have only received "canned" responses, but nothing personally written by any of the DS team. It is so sad. I can understand why you cried. I've cried over it too. I don't do Facebook and I think that's where most of our friends went. Sigh. I love you, Ruthie.
I hope some body in authority reads this, Ruthie!
They were not honest with us about what was about to happen.
My heart is broken about all the lost connections with my friends of eight or nine years here. Nobody seems to care.
God Cares! He knows we need each other so desperately on this site. I believe He will also hear our prayers and someone with authority will listen to us, and have Mercy!
Let's continue to pray!
Calling Oprah would actually solve the whole
thing. This would upset her very much! Got her number?
I agree completely, Ruthie. I don't even have the oomph most of the time to try to tackle all that is wrong with DS. It takes all the concentration I have to even figure out how to use the things I used to be able to do in my sleep, practically. I don't feel hopeful because it isn't just a problem of one or two glitches. The format is difficult to use. They have the most inane things causing pop-ups that require an additional confirmation of the part of the user that are totally unnecessary. Too many steps are needed to access information. It is just a big mess in every way. I miss everything about the old DS, even the fact that it hung up a great deal of the time - that seems like a small annoyance compared to this.
I agree with you Ruthie and all of you here. However, we need each other too much to give up. I can see improvements happening, although it is at a rather slow pace. I'm not sure why it is taking so long to adjust things.I can finally adjust my writing size on my new journal section. So I'm very relieved about that. I still cannot change my status words or delete the old ones and I know a lot of people have inquired about that to DS. Why they are having so much difficulty in fixing that, I have no idea. Also the limitation with words on our hug messages is annoying. Anyway, let's just persevere and be patient. This support site is very special to us all. I wanted to ask you Ruthie if you have received any of my hug messages so far. ? I'm so sorry that you're upset.We all understand because we have all struggled with the changes. My tablet would not work at all with the new site and my husband had to phone for help and I ended up changing to a different web browser. I didn't have a clue what was happening. My DS front page was a third blocked out and I had no access whatsoever. Anyway slowly things are improving, although I still prefer our old site. Just hang in there my dear friend. Hopefully it will all come together within time. I know the whole vibe has changed and we all feel further apart but we are still connected.Our bond of love will not be broken.
Love you dearest Ruthie . You're such a good soul and a wonderful friend.
Yes, I agree with you. Why they can't tell us what is going on is totally rude. I mean how hard would it be to write a memo every so often. They were vocal before the changeover. Let's keep hanging in there because we are all we have. I wish we were well enough & knowledgeable enough to make our own site, it would be exactly like the old site, lol. Hugs, Denise
I have written some journals lately Ruthie.I had to split the first one into seven small sections and the next into two small sections .I wrote another one that was funny and I pressed publish and lost the whole lot like you did Unfortunately my recent ones that went through in sections are all pretty miserable sorry.Lol !!
