I'm looking forward to the improvements!! ππ
Me too! Or, at least a rollback to the way some things used to be.
@smartasswoman
AGREED π
Pleased about Andrew coming back. The company certainly forgot its "Why" without him around. As for the last part, they are both too old for the job and both parties should be ashamed that they didn't put forth younger/better candidates.
Both parties seem to be full of cowards who are unwilling to tell their leader he's too old.
Interesting that in the week I checked out of membership, asking for and getting a refund, because membership benefits had changed overnight, his return changed things back. We will see how things continue to shake out. I am needing to work on my stair climbing muscles. The 30 steps at the cabin tell me every time that the 5 miles I walk at the warehouse every day is not working every muscle...
Iβve been wondering if the people who coughed up extra to be able to see who viewed them, will be getting a refund. But maybe it was on a month to month basis β¦
@smartasswoman, I hope so too!
So, wait, I responded to hippie but didn't comment on your post.
My boss said something about making time for the important things. We can tell what's important to me.
The jokes. π
Anyhoo.
We all know I'm happy he's back.
Oh yeah, I'm not ready for anything like that. Whew!
I count a reply to someone else as having commented...but thanks for coming back! π
Today's class had an impossible move (I can't even describe it coherently). I tried it but was afraid I was going to slip and hurt myself, so I substituted something else.
Oh wait I actually found a YouTube of half of the move. She had us going back into a lunge, then over to this curtsy squat, then back to lunge, etc. - 15 reps! It just wasn't happening. I felt like my leg was going to slide out from underneath me.
@smartasswoman yeah no. I canβt even squat with both feet in on the ground for very long
I'm hopeful that this site will markedly improve over time with Andrew back in control. It'll be interesting how he turns the site into a not-for-profit venture.
I haven't specifically seen him say "not for profit". I do think he sincerely wants to make membership fees more reasonable.
@smartasswoman I've probably misinterpreted Andrew's words.
@CarriedBack Re-reading Andrew's postings, I think he means fair profits but I'm not clear what that precisely means for the site.
Squats? I tip over, LOL. I can lift weights though
Biden, ugh. I want both big name candidates to withdraw and 2 intelligent, SANE candidates to step up. I live in a fantasy world, LOL.
I'm in your same fantasy world, Pony.
Andrew does seem to have a better grasp of how not to irritate the customers.
Getting old...not for the meek.
And my only question is, "Why is no one saying shame on the family (or others) for continually putting him out there in the public view." I think it's practically senior abuse and cruel. No one puts their family members on display when they start to decline.
I agree, Kay. I donβt understand why his family doesnβt want him to take a well deserved retirement at the end of the year.
@smartasswoman I saw my brother tonight and was expressing my thoughts, and he thinks putting him out there might have been the strategy to help get him out of office because now so many people have seen what's going on.
I agree...after such a long career, time to enjoy retirement.
It's gonna take time for Andrew to get through his miles-long to-do list. I'm being cautiously optimistic. At least he doesn't have a CEO that blocks his path to innovation and improvements anymore.
It's good that we're seeing some changes taking effect immediately, like doing away with the "get laid guarantee."
@Bigwilly3392c
That guarantee was there 15 years ago when I joined. The site did away with it for a while and I saw it coming back with the new subscription fees.
@Bigwilly3392c
Passion has been the more tamer part of AFF, geared towards dating, but it does look like it's been made to look like an AFF clone. Maybe that's something else @Andrew can work on later.
Being realistic, I think this site is always going to have a casual sex focus - but I agree it would be great if "get laid tonight" disappeared from the marketing.
@smartasswoman
I think Andrew had them removed. Yay!
I'm resolved to being patient and see what Andrew does. He has one HELL of a mess to sort out. At some point perhaps I mention bringing back the Silver Level membership. That is what I had till they did away with it, and it was quite adequate for my needs.
I was tempted to do some snatches in that hot yoga class, but alas neither are what you might think at first. π
I also had a silver membership for a while. As I recall, at the time standard members weren't able to access the "Where I'm Quoted" page, and it drove me crazy not knowing whether people had replied to my comments, haha.
@smartasswoman Oh yeah, I kind of remember that that.
