How to find anything on this site
Watch this postHi. I rarely visit this forum any more I find the layout of the site completely baffling, I previously posted cop26 and purposelessly tried to find it not using the search option, gave up after 10 minutes. It never showed in the latest posts or latest comments section or any other logical place and I only found it using search function. I used to repair computers and have designed a few websites so I am pretty clued up on computers but I find this site mind boggling. If the site was a little more logical I am sure it would retain and attract more users. Rant over.

I’m new on here and really struggling to find my way around. I have done one post but nobody commented I probably put it in some random place. Not sure how long I will continue to try everything to complicated.

Still having problems getting around the site. I was specifically looking for penpals/online friends with similar interest but not many people seem to reply. I am unsure whether you can direct message anyone or whether everything just goes on to forums.

I tolded her she is welcome to chat with me, but how do I get back to her. I tried latest post, I'm own and I'm watching. I don't want her to think i was just talking. This could be serious. depression could be deadly. Also, I checked my email
Did you try looking under the tab called 'I STARTED' You should be able to find the threads you initiate are under here 🙂
Glad you found it using the search function, which is a good option as the latest threads are updated daily so generally displays the most recent posts.
There is also an eye icon called 'I'm Watching' which if you activate will allow you to keep tabs on any threads you are waiting and watching for a reply.
If you get a reply, you will also get an automatic email with a direct link to a response.
I hope this helps you find your way around 🙂
I tried all of the above, not there
