Stayfriends
Posted Apr 28, 2019
I had a request to connect on Linkedin this morning. The name sounded familiar, so I went to check it out.
Sure enough, I found a link to Stayfriends. Do any of you know the site, or is this predominantly German?
Oh well, to see the profile, I had to join. So I did.
What a horrible site in terms of user friendliness.
If you went to more than one school, you're stuck. You can only enter one school -- well, I managed to enter two, but I couldn't correct the dates. Seriously? There wasn't anything much I could do at all, really -- not even delete my account. I had to google to find out how to go about that.
Why do sites feel the need to make it nigh on impossible for users to leave?
I managed, though, which is a good thing.

Deserted -- and sort of censored

... this place, I mean. h2g2. It is very rare that I check in here, because the place seems dead. I just reminisced in a few old threads where we used to have so much fun, but alas, all the former participants have left the site.
I then came across an announcement thread only to see that some very justified criticism was stifled by TPTB.
What the Dickens happened to open conversation, to debate, or even to topic drift? It's what made this site the fun place it used to be.
No wonder so many good people went elsewhere.

It's that time of year again

to wish all my friends a merry Christmas, and a happy, healthy new year!
This year was a horrible year for my family on so many levels, and I can't wait to see the back of it.
I'll be a nanna come January, and I'm looking forward to it.

Sign-in works again
Posted Dec 29, 2015
The other week I wasn't able to log in. TBH, I thought it wasn't a big loss, and I wasn't going to contact Noesis moderators to be able to log in.
Today, I checked, and to my surprise, I was able to sign in without problems. Mysterious.
Anyway, I wish all my friends here who may chance upon this a very happy and healthy new year.
