I see it's back to the way it was, takes ages to go through them. You could just zip through them. Why change it????

It drives me nuts now it has reverted back, why when you discard a match it can;t automatically bring up the next one and not go back to the start of the page is beyond me..why do they fiddle with the things that work well and not improve the things that need improving!!!

Thank Joy will have a look.

AGrace..... I agree with you. Was so easy to clear out what most of the time was no where near a match.

See my thread 'signing in' and you will see that apparently the changes have been done as an answer to requests from members!!!!!!

Marion..... they need to have something to do to justify their wages.
As long as we are happily plodding along , they have little to do.
That's it.... I will be rejected now.

For the first time in ages my little white envelope went out after I had read the message. Is that progress do you think?

Deanna

Deanna Report 28 Jul 2010 17:58

Hi Marion.... hundreds... and hardly at all.
Still, I always have to remember that thie is where my pals live, so I mustn't complain too much.
How are you love, you certainly seem to be doing okay.

Up and until two months ago I use to have around 10 pages of Hot Matches, but the last two lists that came through only have two pages, and all one name "Adnames". Gone are all my other matches and contacts, some tree with up to 172 matches. Contacting technical services brought no reply, and on previous occasion and problems, brought little help.
As for surveys, they are only useful if people read them, take note, and then take action, I would not hold your breath.
These are some of the reason I do not have a full membership here, but do on both Ancestry and Find my Past.

Deanna Report 29 Jul 2010 10:58

Yes Anthony, I think we all have memberships elsewhere it does help in the hunt.
And I hate to sound like the woman I am, but the changes are never for the better.
Don't you agree?
