I agree ( kiss in return ) and like you when the big bang came it was not my fave day either, so again like you I had to make a decision on whether to walk away or suck it and see. Being who I am I followed my lifestyle and decided to suck on it a while redface , so no change there then wink . After sucking on it for a few months I then had to decide if I wanted get involved again and evolve with the new format or take the long walk. I did make a few comments during that time of assessment but as the site stabilised I started to overcome the culture shock and tried to give my new step parents the benefit of the doubt. I have decided to stay and take the long haul and not the long walk. Things are not perfect but then neither have been any of my relationships, long term or short. Those of us that are here three months or so down the line have the option to either support what we have, or try to erode the rebuild. Those that are now happy with what we as a community and the mods and admin are all striving for, need to come together (no pun) and help us all to return to what we had prior to the big bang. Personally I think we are getting there, at least we are now all trying. I believe everyone has a right to their opinion but if it’s divisive and negative then perhaps, I repeat just perhaps, those opinions should either be expressed elsewhere or kept to themselves thereby allowing those who are working at success to get on with it. I feel we need all the help we can get and if for no other reason than my own purely selfish ones then we should at least give it our best shot.
I want to keep the social life that I have acquired, along with my friends and enjoy the company of the people I have learnt to laugh with and at. We have jointly learnt to laugh at each other together and it has been said before that some have even cried together. If we can continue to laugh at and with each other then we are halfway to success and contentment. I want to continue to laugh and cry with those that understand me, in spite of those that don’t. Those that say that they "Hate it here" have missed out on this. It is unfortunately their loss. However, I'm Fxxxxd if I will sit back and watch them destroy what I and others have aquired as our right by our reward for effort.
To quote Dammie (and I don’t do that very often :wink: ) SH is dead: Long live Swinging Heaven. As you yourself so rightly say Sam, we advance or fall by our own efforts, it’s a fifty-fifty call.

Judy, :kiss: just wish my thoughts came out as eloquently as yours :kiss:

Due to the lack of emotions or smileys of any kind I take it you are serious. Therefore the above is is not really positive and will certainly not help any of us to build on what we already have, will it? No, I don't think so either. This is just the sort of post that contributes to dragging down and attempting to destroy what others have been trying to rebuild for the past 3 months. If you really do hate it then you know where the door is. Moaning about it wont improve it. There are many people here that have been trying very hard to get over a culture shock, me included, some people find change of any kind hard to deal with and when that something appears to be coming unglued it can be very difficult not to walk away and just let it crumble. The whole thing has been re-glued and the site is now on a more stable and level base so either join us and help us all to enjoy and improve or leave us to it and try a few jerky forward and reverse motions toward the exit. You cant miss it ...its the one lit up in red. Please don't attempt to spoil what we have here. Just take your burst ball and find another field to kick it in. Were fine and attempting to get on with it. I wish you good luck and God speed in your search for perfection and I'm sorry you didn't find it here. With the attitude you have adopted it begs the question...will you find it anywhere.

Judy, with the greatest of respect, the question was asked and secksy_cpl said what they felt. If this thread is just to boost ego's and tell the new owners how wonderful they are then fine, post something like "hey what do you think of the show so far? but don't reply if you think it's rubbish".
Freedom of speech and all that - let's not be too judgemental.
On a personal note, well, I've not been a frequent user for nearly two years now but have enjoyed popping in and seeing old and new faces. I don't think on the outside things have changed too much. The idea is still the same. People come and go and this place will change time and time again with the new members and the friendships they bring.
I never thought of leaving but then like I said I'm not around that often. sad

do i feel the place has chaged... of course!!!!
it was a shock for us all... a lot of old faces moved on of their own accord... and lot of old faces thought they were pushed out of the door (rightly or wrongly)
did i think i would be one of the ones to go... hand on heart, yes i did....i don't post as much as i did and i lurk more now... but i am glad i kept an open mind......
everyone is going to have opinions on the site....for example I hate chatroom version 1 with a passion and was quick to let everyone know it...i am not a a great fan of a lot of changes made in regard to the photo ad's... but in the end it is my friends old and new that have kept me here... if all my friends are now spread across 3 sites.. then i will visit 3 sites, so be it....
the next test is going to be what happens on december 7th.....i already know i am not going to stay if they start charging... but until then i am going to have fun.... life is too short to be moaning and worrying about the little things like a website...... real life is outside and to a lot of people this is an escape......in the last few weeks that has rang true to me in so many ways i won't discuss but my friends know.....
sean xxxxxxxxxx
have to say I liked the old SH.....and no matter how i try I don't feel the forums has the same sence of community as it did before. I do like the new chat rooms...for a start I can get in them ..... Think as WRATS stated the day that will define the place is Dec 7th. For those that haven't looked that is when those of us that gained complimentry membership MAY be asked to statrt paying. I'm sorry but no matter how much I like the site I'm not paying. So I'm afraid for me the jury is still out.
To say that I loved the old SH is an understatement. Since the change over, Ive deliberately restrained myself from coming here, mainly to try to get an objective view......I did have VERY strong views about what happened, but I didnt think it fair on myself and the site to just decide there and then whether to go or not......
It's still not how I would like it to be, but having said that its not as bad as I thought either.
However, like DeanCannock and a fair few others have said.....I doubt I'll be paying for the priviledge of keeping my account open......I may be proven wrong when the time comes though...... wink
So as the Seventh incarnation of Doctor Who once said "Time will tell......it always does....."

I'd have to disagree about that, the moderators still moderate using pretty much the same rules and judgment as they did before the site changed ownership, paying customers are not flagged up to the moderators or treated any differently, the aup applies to all members.
we would have to disagree with ourselves now too steve redface but dont blame us blame bloody dambuster and co , and the masquerade stunt they pulled earlier surprisedops: :oops: :oops: bloody dammy youve got it comming grrrrrrrr

As far as Tramper is concerned, all the mods knew about the set up so I don't think they are slacking at all. Its very easy to judge to quickly how the site will go. We all have choices either stay or go!!
