Hello, The site design looks really pretty, but I find the new format for the forums to be less user-friendly. I might get used to it, but I really liked the old way better and probably won't be posting much in the future. How does a person even find the current threads without having to go through pages and pages of previous threads? Where is the member info? How do you e-mail another member? Where are the privacy preferences? There are a whole lot of bugs that need to be worked out. So far it's not great. Very sorry, but it's jmo.

Okay, ever heard of the old saying: don't fix it if it ain't broke?  I agree with the above comment that this new forum is not very user friendly.  How do I send emails? How do I get back my original forum name:destiny8910.  Instead it is now using my login name.  Help please

Sorry but I don't like this other than being pretty its not so good. I can't find anything. Its not user friendly at all.  And  name has changed from Mygoodness to Renee. I can't figure out how to fix it.  Help!

How do you find new post!

And my name has changed from destiny8910 to vdenson.  Just crazy.  This is not cool at all.  Please go back to the old forum.

Not crazy about the revamp either. Why are threads that haven't been discussed in over a year ahead of current threads? And, like the others, am now going by my login name instead of luvsjason73. I probably could get used to it, but the site was fine the way it was.

Who's idea was it to change the website!!!  I can't figure out anything.  Is Pratt behind this?  Change it back PLEASE!!!!!

Someone needs to fix it so we can go back to our screen names please and give directions to the threads.  I figure if I have come here each day and spent over 5 minutes trying to find the latest we discussed on and STILL can't find them, then some tech needs to fix this. Its nuts!

How do you create a New Topic? I have tried and it says that it worked but isn't showing up any where but my Post tab....I finally get on this site and now its harder than ever to use. Not happy...Is SOD even reading these posts?

You can forget about creating a new topic.  It doesn't work, period.  This dayum site is all jacked up.  I don't know WTF is going or if any of the SOD ptb's are listening.  It's really sad if they're not.  Does anybody know of any other sites that have DECENT soap opera forums?  If yes, please let me know.

SO thats why I don't see the new topic I've started. I wish thsi forum would get fixed.

Destiny8910: I am with you. If someone can find a better forum I will jump ship too.

I used to love checking out the forums everyday and seeing what people had to say. Hardly anyone is commenting anymore. Where has everyone gone? I miss you all! It's extra frustrating now that it appears that we're going to lose two of our great soaps! 

I'm sorry to say this, but I think a lot of it has to do with the new format here because I'm sure we are still watching our shows and we still have opinions about them.   :(

I can't use this site to save my life. I started a new topic and I haven't seen it yet. Nothing I write ever gets posted. I wish they would go back to the old format ASAP. I hate not being able to start a new topic and I can't find who posted anything new. I hate it. HATE!  Now do you all see General may be on the way  out too if Katie Couric signs with ABC. I don't like her. I don't need another talk show. Enough already.

OMG! This site is way too hard to move around in. After 1/2 an hour I was FINALLY able to reset my password to be able to keep my screen name which I've had for over 2 years! Forget about making new posts/topics or talking with friends it's impossible. You don't know when ppl are on, and nearly everyone has had to change their screen name. As for new posts tried that only to see it on the home page but NO WHERE ELSE, then it just disapppeared never to be found agian. WTF? It's too hard and time consuming. You can't PM anyone., making corrections is a BEAR!!!! If the attempt wa to get rid of all of us it's working. It would be greatly appreciated it the Admin would help us, but hey maybe even THEY can't navigate this crap either.......you've taken an enjoyable site and made it too hard for everyone, which defeats the WHOLE purpose of updating the damned thing....but hey I'm sure this post won't pop up either. Really sad SOD, you could've done better, pretty to look at but not much else

ITA! I gave up after the first couple of days. I came back now, hoping it would be the way it was before, but no such luck. After a hard day of work, the last thing I want is to have to struggle just to read about my soaps! And besides, there is just no one here anymore. No new comments, no anything. Good job, SOD! If something is not broke, leave it ALONE!

I so agree. I don't get this at all. I started new posts and they are gone. I have a new name and I can't see new posts. I hate, hate, hate it. What is going on. Is there no way to go back to the old way. Site is great except for the forum. Can't they see that posting is down. I feel like I have no place anymore to go and vent. I hate it.

I can't help but assume that SOD doesn't want us here anymore. 

If we all send email to the attached address, do you think someone might listen to us about how bad this forum? It does say it is for the Magazine but they might direct the complaints to the on-line SOD department.

Will try. I love the look of all but this forum. I can't believe how bad it is. I know change is good but this change just doesn't work.

Not a fan of this new look, AND they are not updating any information.  What is that about, the daily recaps haven't been updated since Monday.  It needs to go back to the old style, huge dislike button on this.

So far I am totally disatisfied with this site since the takeover. The things we so enjoyed can not be found and some that are are not updated. For a soap fan that enjoys finding up to date information and spoilers this is a total disaster as it is unusable. So sad as this was a premium site for us soap lovers. As far as I am concerned SOD & SOW may RIP as it is dead.

I'm pretty much done w/the soaps and your sight. Need I say more???

All of u need to check Soapnet.com awesome with next week previews  wow, recaps etc...  soap opera digest   digest this.

I am trying to find the recaps and they haven't been updated since May 9 what is with that.  And they used to have the new covers on Friday for both but that hasn't changed either.  Does anyone know why they did this.  I agree with ya'all don't like the new site.

Has anyone else not gotten May 13th and May 20th newsletters?  I reregistered and have been a subscriber for at least a dozen years...  I've never had a  problem that hasn't been taken care of before by SOD, so I'm surprised at their lack of response...

I have not received the May 13 and 20 newsletters either!!!   Wonder what the problem is? Let me know if you get an answer to the problem. JannieY@aol.com.

Hi Janice!  I sent you a reply via the email icon on this site, but the way things are going...I'm not sure if you will get it.  Thank you for letting me know I'm not the only one getting no newsletters, responses, etc.  If I do get something  (like an answer!)  I'll let you know.  Maybe you can do the same? Thanks again!  Shannon

I don't understand how they can just stop the website and not mention it anywhere. There's nothing online, nothing in the soap opera digest magazine, no email went out, etc. I guess it's safe to assume this website is no longer being updated but why not tell your viewers about it?

Yeah, nothing updated in days. It is awful. I wonder if they are going to be cancelled too? LOL.

Unfortunately soapnet.com's message boards are closing as of today (May 23) - I have a country music website - that has a section dedicated to soaps - if you are interested in posting there.  Here is the addy - http://thecountrymusicscene.proboards.com/index.cgi
