Hate to be a Johnny come lately

But damn this feed is confusing as all get out.
I just kept clicking the new post button and it showed posts from 10 minutes ago to 46 minutes ago.
Then if I'm not diligent it won't show me when people comment on a post I made and I miss them.
Is there a magic setting that will allow me to see everything posted??

It’s a mess. Something’s not working. But it’s all part of the “charm” of this place. You need to lower your standards and expectations every time you log in here.

@carpediem LOL.
I think you are right about lowering our standards.
Someone else noted that it is all part of a completely automated system.
I joined a site a million years ago that people would message you and it was free. There were tons of hot chicks that messaged me constantly. But as it turned out I had to pay to get more than two or three messages that I could respond to.
So anyway, the messages turned out just to be canned messages from an automated system designed to look like there were a lot of people on the site.
I have wondered if that is what goes on here. Because I see people make a post asking a question and they never respond to any of the comments. I'm just babbling now I guess. LOL

You do have to check the option to receive replies to the post.

@SweetMae ah! that used to be automatic

@SweetMae crap. Why does it have to be so difficult.
Now I have to go back into my settings and find that and make sure I clicked it.
Thank you

I know and there's only one logical explanation - they fucking hate us. Like why else would they deliberately go fuck it up so bad? lolz.😆

@AdaXI You know I wish I could disagree with you but damn.
I want to see it all and decide what I interact with not them deciding what they show me. :-(
I need to know whom to garland for such a chaotic mind & confused users. Let me know once it is known.

@sspec I blame Andrew. LOL
@Dainbramadge I need to choose Rotten tomatoes for the needful.

I believe as people respond, the feed goes to the top again with activity. Sometimes you'll see a feed from a year ago, my guess is, someone saw the question presented below the actual Feed and they respond, making that post "Relevant," thus, placing it to the top.

@Iwillwait I just set my feed to post things by time posted and it still is messed up. LOL
I see what you are saying tho and i will pay attention to that and see if I am still confused. :-)

There is a new kid in town
I started changing my feed settings frequently. If I see the same posts, then I change my settings again & refresh the page. It helps a little but yeah, still annoying
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@ChiefWalksWith40oz I know right. I want to see everything posted on this site not just what the computer thinks I want to see.

I believe this site had become worryingly successful, so they had to intentionally randomize the feed to confuse new users, and to keep the "small is beautiful" community feeling alive.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@helenS I want more stuff in my feed. LOL
They kind of screwed things up.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@UnderLockDown I guess I am just now paying attention to how messed up it actually is.

@Stereoguy I didn't realize that. I thought there were tons of posts going on that I just couldn't see because of the way I have my stuff set up.
I also know that when I get on it is the slow Time.
I guess I should shut up and make some more posts. :-)

@Stereoguy I share a lot of information in other people's Post in the comments.
I have an extraordinary amount of stories to share and I have been told I need to make my own post rather than make these ungodly long comments.
I made a few. But the time of day doesn't get very many views.
I am planning on making more posts.

Nope its an admin fuck up its dying the e p death where they automated everything and it slowly died. This when they left paschar go as mod
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Lilnonames you know I wasn't thinking about the automation being to not need administrators or moderators.
It all makes sense now.

@MarmeeMarch yes I am. Does that have something to do with it?
