				What a terrible forum this is. It's completely confusing and difficult to use. I didn't get one single helpful answer to my question. I'm leaving.
			
 
			
			- 
				First time I've read a negative comment about the website. 
			
 
			
			- 
				Hi Loretta, I've just searched your post and you have had 2 helpful replies, sorry if you've missed them.
			
 
			
			- 
				You began your thread yesterday  :-\  - we are World wide so threads may take a while to pop up and my 'unread posts since last visit' rarely shows, I have to scroll through  ::)
You sound menopausal? 
Many sites are confusing until 1 becomes used to them.  But 'terrible' is really harsh - tell us more about yourself in your mirena thread and do use the search box.
			 
			
			- 
				CLKD....I agree, the post from Loretta did not show up in my "unread posts" yesterday.  I have answered it this morning xx
			
 
			
			- 
				My unread posts that used to appear at the top disappeared a couple of weeks ago sp I have to remember to use the notify option so I get an email.  Apart from that the site is fine when you get used to like anything.

				Hi loretta. I didn't see the post either.
We usually give new ladies a very warm welcome so sorry you missed out on that.
But it's not too late...so welcome to the forum.
 :welcomemm:
I don't have any experience of the coil but I see you have some replies.

 I still get "Show unread posts" and "Show replies to my posts". I usually look there first.

				Try a different Browser.
I usually use Chrome, which is fine.  However on Microsoft Edge the 'Unread Posts' etc., are missing.
			 
			
			- 
				So Loretta - check in and have a read round  ;)

				Never saw it either,such a shame she feels negatively about site.think she's gone☹️
			
 
			
			- 
				She's not 'black' so is probably lurking.  I have sent a PM to her.  Some are so impatient forgetting that we are here for a reason.  Menopause ....... 
			
 
			
			- 
				Hello Loretta.
So sorry that you've had a bad experience. Please try posting again so that we can help you.
( CLKD  usually answers every post multiple times lol !)
Take care.
K.
			 
			
			- 
				If I see something that hasn't had a response I try to but in - but to call the website terrible isn't necessary.  We are here .......
			
 
			
			- 
				I must admit, I only tend to look at the 'all things menopause' and 'personal experiences' posts, I don't check all the threads that have appeared since I last logged in. Since this one was in the 'new member' section I missed it - must try harder!
			
 
			
			- 
				I think the website is brilliant and so are all you ladies. Wish you all lived in my village! xx
			
 
			
			- 
				Haha DQ that's barely worth thinking about 🤣😂 the website IS brilliant,it's helped 1000s of women,it's also not THAT difficult to navigate your way round,even for a technophobe like me 
			
 
			
			- 
				I find the site very helpful and supportive! 
Sorry that you don't feel that way but I think that it is better to give more time before any conclusions! 
🌷
			 
			
			- 
				This website has been a lifesaver for me and I'm not exaggerating xx 
			
 
			
			- 
				It's been a massive help to me these last couple of years.
			
 
			
			- 
				She might justve been having a bad day?its not beyond the realms of possibility with us lot😆
			
 
			
			- 
				
Well Ive only joined and I too think it is a great forum.  Just wondering Emerald2017 - are you from Ireland by any chance?
			 
			
			- 
				Hi Nightmare! No, I am not from Ireland!😘
			
 
			
			- 
				Pity that the initiator of the thread doesn't return - makes one wonder actually!  Shall I get Emma to shut the thread?
			
 
			
			- 
				I doubt she's coming back clkd 😟
			
 
			
			- 
				I hope that she is lurking ....... give it 24 hours then I'll have a word with Emma.
			
 
			
			- 
				BUT WE'RE ALL REALLY NICE!!! How could anybody NOT like us 😂
			
 
			
			- 
				We even talk about menopause.   Sometimes  :D.  And as for the old woman  :-X  ;)
			
 
			
			- 
				Menopause?what menopause?IS THIS A MENOPAUSE SITE??😂
			
 
			
			- 
				Maybe  :whist:
See if you R lurking we ain't half bad  ;)
			 
			
			- 
				I wouldn't bother guys, she's gone - I hate to say it but I think there's a very small number of people who come onto the web looking for a fight, and if you're already menopausal you may have a very short fuse....
			
 
			
			- 
				She's not in black though  :-\ her threads still show ..... hey ho!
			
 
			
			- 
				Oh well we tried,thing is,you always get a laugh somewhere,I've been so cheered up by my virtual pals when some days I feel rubbish.thank you girls😊
			
 
			
			- 
				I do have to say that all of the replies here have been understanding, caring, and helpful. Not one person has reacted negatively or responded with a "bye then!" type comment, which I think is a great reflection of just how good the site actually is.  :)
			
 
			
			- 
				 :thankyou:  sometimes lurkers troll such sites in order to get a reaction  ::)
			
 
			
			- 
				hahaha that's true CLKD! Poor trolls lol!  ;D
			
 
			
			- 
				😂 she probably read the threads and screamed LET ME OUTTA HERE
			
 
			
			- 
				I suspect you may be right Racjen x
			
 
			
			- 
				I love to check in from time to time, generally it's when I have an issue or a question to ask, I should really visit more often but hey-ho, I know I'm not going to be judged
I find the forum easy to navigate, and find the 'show replies to your posts' and 'show unread posts since last visit' really useful 
Keep up the good work people xxx
			 
			
			- 
				 :thankyou:
			
 
			
			- 
				I wish my "show replies / unread posts" options would re appear.  They disappeared a few weeks ago never to be seen again!   
			
 
			
			- 
				Didn't clkd have the same issue?
			
 
			
			- 
				I think she did but they came back.
			
 
			
			- 
				
I think she did but they came back.
 i still have them.
			 
			
			- 
				It's interesting she actually got more comments on this thread than many good questions do.
