I don't know what it is, but what? women only like mushy chick flicks? i happen to hate mushy chick flicks. I like Mafia, War and all kids of action. Jeesh.
    I'm right with you. I like movies with engaging storylines, good acting and directing, characters I can relate to, and amazing effects are always a plus.

    Basically, everything most chick flicks AREN'T!

    The amount of times I almost fell asleep at the wheel, not good, good thing I stopped a few times to have a break and sleep in my car at the services,

    Note: it does help if you park relatively near the entrance and people walk past laughing and the odd girl going 'awwww' :mad:

    Can't help you Sneezy. Drink water. :)

    Just a little note to everyone.

    I've had it. The Devs aren't going to listen to our concerns, the new skin seems to be here to stay, and the face of AMHD, and the reason I stayed here to begin with, are going fast. I won't stick around to see what happens.

    I'll be popping in while I clean up a bit. I estimate that I'll be gone within the week, maybe popping in just to make sure my forum is okay until someone else takes over, and making sure that everyone I care about has a way to contact me.

    It's been fun, I've enjoyed being a part of this site, but it's no longer the site I fell in love with, so I won't stay.

    Love you all. No worries, this isn't the official good bye yet, just a preview of what's going to happen later this week.

    Ah sh*t alty,but I have to say there is a lot of bad feelings about the new skin,and its noticeable on the boards,the amount of confusion is incredible.

    Ill probably hang on till the bitter end,try as I might the new skin has me baffled,I'm no good to man nor beast on it.

    Bear, if the new skin didn't affect the old, I'd be okay with it.

    The fact is, it's a big ole mess. It's confusing, and new members are being forced to use it before it's ready. It's unprofessional and people are going elsewhere. I can't blame them, if I was a newbie, and was greeted by the new ff skin, I wouldn't stick around either.

    They're posting comments instead of posts, reddies can be dished out like candy, with only one post to their names and no spreading around the rep. They can view everything we're doing just by going to our profile page. There's more, but those are some of the highlights.

    Fact is, it's not fun anymore. I still love the people I've met here and I know I'll miss you all terribly, I'll miss our chats, our silly theme threads, but I can't stick around just for that.

    I don't want to leave either. I was a lifer, but the AMHD I know and love, it's going, and it won't be long before it's gone completely. I won't sit here and watch it happen knowing there's nothing I can do about it. This is just too big a change. :(

    My prediction is that AMHD will lose a lot of valuable members if this continues. Makes you wonder why they're going ahead with it when so many of the people that make this site what it is, are saying they hate it and they'll leave.

    I guess we don't matter, after all, we're just the people that use the site, that have made the site what it is. People come here because of the advice and support we give. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you, and that's what the Dev's are doing.

    We're not appreciated, that's been made very clear. So why should I stay? Maybe when the money stops flowing in they'll realize how valuable we all are.

    I'm sticking to my guns on this one, even though leaving will hurt. :(

    I say we organize a strike. Maybe create a poll.
    Might go something like:

    Would you go on strike from AMHD?
    Say for a week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks?

    And Answer like usual those with 100, 200, 300, Active members?

    Below that number would you reply with something like:
    "AMHD is undergoing changes that the majority don't seem to like. We, as the majority, have intentionally restricted our answers to those with x posts or higher". We are effectively on strike.
    Work on it guys.

    Alty, I am as frustrated as you are, but I don't understand, when I log on it's the old AMHD, sure I get weird comments, haven't had an reddies yet, but I am sure it's only a matter of time. BUt if I don't want to use the ff style, I don't have to.

    Does yours automatically log you into that style?

    Its not just about using it. Its about the affect it has on this place. It does so much and can mess things up so fast its not funny. And when your trying to follow a thread there really isn't that option any more because if comments are posted you can't see them as an alert. Also you have to reread everything over to make sense of it.

    Oh yes, I understand. Totally. I guess, maybe because I only stick to the dogs and the chit chat threads I don't notice it as much. Luckily I am still able to use the V2, or else I wouldn't be here anymore. I really don't want this site to change over, I really, really don't. I can not see any good coming from it, and I am almost nervous coming on here each day. This was my first QnA site, and I stuck around because it was so user friendly. I'd hate to loose that.

    Come over to the law board sometimes and just read some of the threads a little. You will see answers in the comments sections and its not a liniar fashion. That is one board where clarity is very important. I watched one poster comment on 3 other ansers to the question and it was really hard to follow and also cut off parts of their answer.

    Take a look and see what it does.
