Well, we’ve tried petitions, we’ve tried letters, we’ve tried yelling really loud… All we get is a replacement person who acts real nice and then leaves us with less than we had before.

i took some time of from here for a while due to 1: the site becoming crap.. and 2: my heatlh.. so everything is new to me… and IM NOT liking it…
as for helpmod… i know of him… and have heard about him…
but this is retarded that we cant get one person who can get this place in order and running like it once use to be… or even close to be…

I was in the same boat. Fortunately, we haven’t lost most more since I can back, but we lost a sh*tload while I was gone.

yeah?
i just cant believe how this site has gone down hill in the 2 years i have been here.. and im not here to put this site down by any means because it is still a good site to belong too… but im here to say it was awesome before!!! (when everything worked.. lol)
but i just want something simple back… to be able to change my avatar… lol.. thats it.. one tiny detail.. lmfao..
but anyways.. its now 2 30 am.. and i have got to get to bed… meds are kicking in and have been for a while now.. been trying to fight the feeling for a bit.. lol.. but cant fight any longer.. lmfao… ill be back sometime tomorrow..

I have to agree slightly i am quite annoyed that i cant change my avatar. but i digress nothing will change

well.. maybe one day when we get someone who knows what they are doing things will go back to the way they once were on here… but until then, things will remain ~broken~

I got a ****** torch and fire I’ll lead the angry mob…why do I always result to starting fires to solve lifes problems? oh well lets burn this motha f**ka down!

hahahahahahahaha… well.. i dont think a fire is going to solve our problem here.. but i have to say, i do like to watch fires burn… lol..
as for the angry mob… actually, once things started falling apart on here, there was a lot of angry people on here… and then they just stopped coming and we have lost a lot of great people that use to help and that is the sad part.. all because help.com cant get someone who knows what the heck they are doing to solve the simplest of things to get this site up and running correctly..

List of things we’ve lost:

The ability to post pictures in our replies
Decent Administrators
ANY Administrators
Notices
Auto-refreshing Posts
Auto-refreshing Front Page
Auto-refreshing ANYTHING
An on-site Chat room
Functioning Tags
The ability to change our Avatars
About 90% of site speed
Active and attentive Mods (traded (mostly) for people with a star near their name who either do nothing, or sit in the off-site Chat and do nothing)
Any protection against Trolls other than distracting them until they get bored, as no one’s really around to ban them most of the time

Many of the Ancients, and many of our friends.
An untold number of people who might have been helped but weren’t, because we never saw them. We never got the Notice.

i TOTALLY agree with you….

]I agree. We need this site back to what it was when I first came here. :/

not sure how long you have been here for… however even if it wasnt as it were 2 years ago when i got here… even if it were 1/2 of what it was… i would be satisfied..

Oh yeah. One more thing we’ve lost is the scrolling quotes from our profiles on our posts. Shie posts this, and nothing appears from her main page in the nifty little bubble over her head. No one has scrolling quotes, now.

hahahahahahaha… omg.. i never noticed that they disappeared… ohhh boy.. lmfao.. how long have they been gone… hahahahahahahahahahahahah..
im telling you, its the tumor i tell ya…. the TUMOR!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahahaha

Ah well, yeah I miss all that stuff most do but I mean, if the admin dosent bother to shout us back or reply to anything how can we get anything changed?

well, then maybe we should fire the admin!!! maybe a letter should be written to cnet or who ever owns help.com now adays.. lol.. and tell them how the site use to be and how it is now and how the admin is not doing anything but ruining this site!!!! maybe we all need to go on strike!!!!!! one person coming back on a daily basis only to check it out to see if things have been fixed!!! help.com is making money by people coming to it!!! if people just stopped coming, they wouldnt get the money for it.. right? so if a letter was written to the owner telling them that a strike was going to happen due to the admin not doing anything but ruining the site… do you suppose they would get someone who knows what the heck they are doing?

I have an idea. Let’s find the address to mail both CNET and CBS, and then construct a letter of complaint. We each print it out, put it in an envelope, and send it in. If we have enough people, it could at least get them to pretend to care again. But then, we have to have priorities for them to fix. The last one said they were going to change the color of the Help logo, and ‘fix’ the chat that was working just fine. Those weren’t our most pressing concerns, and several months later, what are we left with? Same sh*t, and no Chat. Unless you call ‘linking to another site’ having an on-site chat.

EXACTLY

the notices thing and the auto refreshing pages are definatly my biggest problems. i used to spend hours on here helping all sorts of people because i got all the notices and now i dont spend nearly as much time.. i however have no idea how we would get it fixed..

we get it fixed by getting an admin who knows what the heck they are doing!!!
