I haven't been on as much since the change. Doesn't feel as friendly and is isolating everyone. I understand why but I enjoyed being connected to everyone not just interest groups. I haven't seen as many posts from some of my original contacts. I miss the connection.

SandraLee,
I guess I haven't been a member long enough to have experienced this change you mentioned. I take it you are referring to a change in the website. When you mention interest groups that you don't care for, you're not referring to the Groups category on top are you? That Groups option is a new feature maybe a couple of months old at most. As far as not seeing posts from your original contacts, I get that those are the people you became comfortable w/. I did some nosing around on this site checking stuff out, you would not believe how many registered members there are but they aren't active. So what about just trying this new group who you don't know? Maybe they will become your new contacts? Just jump in and start a conversation. I have received a warm welcome and everyone has met me on a very helpful level. I only say these things because it saddens me to think that someone feels about this group the way you said you feel. So this is my attempt to try and open up possibilities that you could at least give it a fair shake, and if it doesn't work for you, or you're not comfortable at least you can say you tried.
Speaking for myself, I have become very comfortable w/ the people who are here now and were here when I first started posting. I guess they are my contacts. It is mostly the same people who are most active on here, and it has grown in the last couple of weeks. I notice some new people posting pretty regularly. I consider that a good thing because it brings new personalities and new perspectives to the group. I'm sure you would have something to offer as everyone else does. So think about it.
Oh by the way in case you don't know my posts tend to be long-winded. funny ha ha lol

Jules,
All good suggestions that would only benefit the group. Honestly, I am still as confused at times as I was the first day I entered this group. The other day I inadvertently deleted a entire thread. Simply because I posted something and use the dots on the bottom to delete it and wanted to add to it, I have no idea what happened. Have you heard of that happening to anyone else? Have a good upcoming week!!!!!

Ok, here goes

@A myPHteam Member I understand sometimes you might like some feedback so here it is. If you're going to make so e positive changes here a a couple suggestions. Add a reply option right under where a person comments , by the time I get to the end where there could be a dozen or more comments I've lost my train of thought as well as other who have hypoxia have. Let us look through the feed, not just the last comment, most times in and of itself it doesn't make sense. I'd also like to see a list of who I have on my team. You have a place to add members, but not to see JUST the members on your team. A private message spit would be great too. Some of us have either exchanged email or phone numbers and others of us may not be comfortable doing so. Thank you for listening and I look forward to seeing some of these changes.

The creators of this site also have created numerous other group sites for every medical condition you can think of. That is probably why they look so familiar to you Judy. What have you discovered about the founders & powers that be? You have piqued my curiosity!!!!!
