The site is FREE because they get paid by advertisers. One would think they wouldn't want to p**s off their membership who determines how much they get paid? It's all about clicks. They're not running this site out of the kindness of their heart.

Time for me to move on from this diatribe.



How naive some people are. They get very little from the advertisers, very little. And it’s certainty not the reason they started this blog.

Wasn't aware that you knew the history of why they started this blog, and know the details of their business model. Boy, "you know it all."

I was cool toward the changes, but then I read Paul Chg Canon Sager's response about clicking on the "All Sections" which is right below this at the bottom of the page. I tried that and found that the sections that I am enrolled in. I can choose the section, read as much as I am interested in or down to where I last left off. I can check into other sections occasionally such as Buy & Sell. I can even check out the Nude section where I can read the responses of decrepit old men frothing over nubile young women who wouldn't give them the time of day. I found that I am actually saving time because I am not reading as many postings from sections that I am subscribed to. Formerly when they were in the list and I was going down through the categories, I would tend to at least check them out before moving on.

This was your previous comment "Time for me to move on from this diatribe." You should have kept your word. Then you said:"Boy, "you know it all." I must know more than you because I'm not the one complaining about the new format, I know how to use it to find the info I want.

Have a good evening, sweetie.

I'm 76 and I feel exactly the same way. Change is not always for the better!


I'm 72, younger than many of my fellow hogs, and I agree, I do not like this new look at all. My way of using the internet hasn't changed... I still use a desktop computer 99% of the time. I don't use my phone to search the internet at all for browsing the web, visiting websites, or even email. Pretty much everything I do is on the computer, not my phone or any other mobile device, can't stand those small screens.

OK… I’m old. And that is likely why I don’t adapt easily to change. But, when the recent change here on UHH happened, I thought it would be OK. Today, though, I am a bit lost. Can’t find my groups… my whole UHH experience has changed and not for the better. At least not for me. (Your mileage may vary.)

Routine keeps me going. Everything has a place and everything is in that place. Adjusting to a new routine is tough for this old bird. Not that my comments will change anything, but thought I’d put them out there in case other UHH’ers are experiencing the same frustration.

I’ll eventually adapt. But, it’ll be struggle for a while, at least.

TO TELL THE TRUTH I HATE THE NEW FORMAT. All change is not good.

I switched to the Forum Selections, after I made a lengthy suggestion
via the "contact us" at the bottom of every page, that dawned on me
that the forum selections is the solution.

Whatever amount of money they spent do develop this new format was totally wasted.

I am 87 and haven't felt comfortable with change for many years. My answer to change is to delete the change and go back to normal. I don't need to change because of the change someone else does. The old Ugly Hedgehog was great as it was. I see no reason to change a good thing. I'll give you a month and then see if it is normal again.
