Not off hand, but I sure wish the social groups were back the way they were.

I haven't looked into any social groups too much. The ones I'm interested in seemed slow.
Speaking of which, my hope is that in the future there will be more activity on the boards that very slow. I have no idea how to accomplish that, but maybe Healthline does. __________________ |

Hmmm....fees. Not something I'd thought of. Could be. I sure don't like the idea of paying a fee, because there are months when I seriously don't have $5 extra without hardship. On the other hand, I would like to see lurkers post more and those who post and disappear stick around some so we can all get to know each other.

I am gone if they institute fees.

I'll be extremely surprised if there are fees. Donations, maybe (like there is now).

I think if I could choose one forum change, it would be the ranks of the users to something more..... well, I don't know, moddern?
I always thought elder/ wise elder/ pooba etc didn't really sit right here I guess now I think about it, email notifications when someone mentions you in a post or accepts your friendship requests oh: and maybe changes to new users who post here. right now they need 5 aproved posts before they are free to partisipate, and honestly I always thought 5 was a bit much. |

I like it that people are thinking of possible POSITIVE changes instead of focusing on stuff that triggers.....

I'm afraid I'm less positive about this development than most members seem to be. Healthline is, in turn, owned by some other company called: "Red Ventures", which is (it sounds to me from what little I've been able to find) what is typically referred to as a holding company. All these sorts of companies are interested in is profits.
I was on YouTube when Google bought it. Prior to that most of the members I knew had beautiful channel pages they had designed. First Google took those away & all members could decorate was the border around a large white space. Then they took that away & all you could have was a banner. The rest was simply white space again. Now, it appears, members can't even have a banner (which is okay with me, I prefer not to have one) unless you're a paying member of one sort or another. Oh, & yes you can get rid of all the ads, if you pay Google to take them away...which to me is sort-of like extortion. (Pay us or we'll fill your YouTube videos with ads.) Anyway, I'm taking a wait-&-see attitude. But I have to say it makes me seriously uncomfortable to think about posting anything of a personal nature on a website that's owned & operated by some enigmatic corporate empire. But, then, I've never been on Facebook or Twitter or any of those sites either. So perhaps it's just me. |

Maybe we should just wait & see? What if
we end up with ads that help pay for everything? What would be so bad about that? |

Good information to be aware of, Skeez. Format changes could be something we might have to deal with. Another "I hope not", because I like the format of PC. __________________ |

Theoretically, I don't mind a few ads. For me, the problem is when there are so many ads that content is affected (which always seems to be the case with the internet anymore). Also, when there are ads the usual option to avoid being inundated with them is to pay a monthly fee. __________________ |
