Well this is not good news once again. I understand you feelings *Smryna*

I’ve been on Sugar for over 2 years now and so many good people have left here or started coming less. I use to have at least 10 good friends on here that I liked talking too almost daily. We shared a lot of things, and most importantly we shared humor. And there is nothing like a good laugh everyday.

Anywho, when other members became rude and stalkingly annoying, Sugar allowed two of my friends to change their log in name, then when Sugar couldn’t help with the weirdos, my online friends began to come less and less since there was no help. Talking in Chatter became terrible because you couldn’t have a good conversation anymore. Everything was peaceful in there for over a year. And sometimes eight ladies good talk peacefully all night long, EVERY NIGHT....and then came the trouble makers.

Then when the website changed over last year, once again, some of my friends, just like other members, got irritated with all the site troubles that they incurred while trying to blog, PM, upload photos, videos, logging in too many times, and chatter was also not a good working place to be technical wise because sometimes when you pushed enter the message wouldn’t go through (but not often). Therefore again, they started coming even lesser. They found that being on Facebook or creating their own blog page elsewhere, and even a personal website, was better than having troubles here. Facebook seems to be #1 for them right now.

I’m down to about 6 good friends now that still come here and tolerate. Now that the website has changed AGAIN, and there is a lot of cool features that are now gone AGAIN and most of the dreadful technical issues have come back I have 2 more friends that are considering leaving here and now you too.

What a mess! I left here for two months, came back, and now here we go again.

I started looking into creating my own website early last week, and I have found some great websites that can assist me with that. I can pass on the names if you decide to create a website too. It’s not that hard and there’s more freedom when it comes to a lot of things. I’m set to start setting my website up late this week. I’m excited!

I hope Sugar puts most of the original things back to the way it use to be. Maybe the original fun members will come back here. My good friend Leo hasn’t been on here in over 5 weeks and before that I think it maybe 15 weeks in a row. She now has Facebook and loves it. NBB is nowhere to be found and I really miss her sense of humor. I couldn’t get through a week without it. I will still come here but not a lot once I’m set up on my own website.

Again, I understand your frustration *Smryna* so if I don’t see you that often for a while or never again, I will completely understand why.

I hope Sugar knows what they’re doing now.

everything's well said...What can i say more? I've been here over two years..and Sugar did contribute me lots of stuff...Here are some :
*Thanks to Sugar , glad i met you guys .
*Sugar made me wakes up happy every morning ! Coz i knew that you were here !
*Thanks to Sugar , i have an incredible friends (i've been talking over a year with them)
* Sugar is the first stop for me when i am having trouble dealing something..
* Sugar is a family to me..When i am happy , i share the ideas that i wanted to share most..
*When i am thinking something stupid , i knew that it wasnt a totally ridicilous...
And More....
Actually i've never thought of leaving Sugar before...But it seems like Sugar wants me to go...I dont know..maybe i am just a COQUET or i am trying to be realistic...
Once i thought about having my own blog then i did wangle it ..Because i know it never taste like Sugar...it never feels like home to me...and i'll never find guys like you whose special,loyal,reliable,friendly to me !!
I have another blogs,facebook,twitter etc... all the social network doesnt fine by me...anyway...i am not gonna erase my account..i may blog everyday but not often i've used to be...
I wanna keep in touch with you gurls...I love you all..

Yeah, Sugar is fun when it’s working right There’s no doubt about that. You can get some great advice here on ANYTHING. If you feel nervous about telling your story and getting an answer, there’s always Group Therapy so then your blog will be listed as anonymous.

I keep up with news on here sometimes. Sugar news articles are not that long because it gives you details of the story getting straight to the point. I hate reading articles from people and after a while it seems like blah, blah, blah. Too many websites do that with the news. You have to read down 2 + paragraphs before the true story begins.

Sugar has great unique recipes on here. I come here every other day just to grab a little something new to try. It saves me from looking through my old cook books. I like the humorous and kind friends I have.

In shorter... Sugar is a nice place to meet people, get the news, get advice, nice personal stories to read, recipes and so on. It’s only when you have to start ignoring the immature members that you come across ever few months. I’ve learned that once you ignore the ‘know it alls’ or so they think they’re intelligent, you can get by fine. And once you get over irritation of the website changes, you feel better too as you go back to the norm with you online friends. Hopefully the norm will come again soon, as I stated before.

And I don't do the Twitter thing. I just can't get into that.

Dear both
telling you my own story of quitting... When i was a little girl, went to ballet classes - shortly b4 getting to the point(s) i gave up. Ok- today i can spare knee problems, feet problems etc... YET it was a pity. Then i went to choirs, bands etc. to improve my singing - i gave up as well... then i went to NLP - and finally i did all of it - not only the Practitioner course but also the Business Master course. It is abt holding on - if you do not wish anymore - Smyrna - give up - yet, if you now feel the challenge that it "only" starts, then go on. i would miss you, very very much -
btw: the Indian Web-Site also changed... I was not even able to take along my nearly 190 friends - it is just STARTING FM SCRATCH... if you know what i mean...

I'm going to try and hang in there. The last website change was not good but it got better. This time around Sugar has changed more of things that we love.

I'll still come and read the stories and the news, but when it comes to uploading it can be a pain in the bum bum

Smyrna we miss you!!
