Hey guys... what's happening?

Only one of them I knew a little bit, and there I can imagine why....
Do you feel it's a ipernity quality problem? Some users are complaining about the new network pages, what I do not understand, because most of us were waiting for a version where a single member can not flood the network pages?
I see less acivity on my picures, but maby they are not so interesting and this is not the problem of ipernity but mine?

I think that less activity is due to springtime ;-)
Lots of users complained about the new network pages.
I noticed that the majority of closed accounts are from Germany.
Nothing more.
I wonder if someone else knows something more...

As I said, personally I do not understand the complains about the network pages, for me they are better than before?

I agree with you that the new network page is better now.

They are better in a way that you can chose between one or five pictures by each individual. Yes, that is VERY good!

BUT there are many, many pictures that simply don't show up in your network pages at all, because nobody seems to understand how the notification actually works. So, if you use ipernity as a social networking site, the new network pages have failed.

If you are using ipernity mainly to showcase your own pictures, you only might have noticed a significant drop in visits and/or comments - that's because some people who have you in their contact list simply don't get notified of your new uploads, like they used to do before.

Of course, that is most obvious to the users with few contacts, probably not even noticeable to the ones with lots of contacts and very few social interactions. More explanation how the new network pages effect some of us personally can be read in my blog.

Please note that I am not a notorious complainer: I simply *love* ipernity, and I want to stay here as long as possible. AND I want my friends to stay here as well. Lots of them have disappeared in the last days, which makes me very sad - but some disappearances had personal reasons, and nothing to do with ipernity.

old network pages were shitty too ;)

In a way, yes.

But there was ipernity-fox, an add-on for firefox which gave us all new uploads in chronological order. And this valuable tool stopped working at the end of last year, because there was the first change to the network pages, behind the scenes.

Yet, we could still keep up with new uploads - even though we were sometimes flooded by too many pics of a single user. Solution: we dropped users like that from our network, and everything worked just fine.

I still use IpernityFox !

I wonder why yours would be working?

We noticed it spinning endlessly last year, and we asked Carsten about it in his blog, 4 months ago:
www.ipernity.com/blog/14287/83387/comment/4025547#comment4025547

And then, somewhere else he answered that there was a change in ipernity and he couldn't get it back to work. Sorry, I don't have a link to the answer.

Mine is still spinning endlessly, I just tried it, right after your comment.

never used it ;) anyway: people come - people go, there is no such thing as album manager still ;))

Right, that's another feature I'm missing for 22 months now - but it will come one day, I'm sure ;-)

let's hope ;)

... but I don't get it. If I visit my network pages, set to 1 picture, since 1 month, I see a overview about my network, every picture is the last one of the stream. (ok, tested on 2).
What is wrong with the network pages?

... don't be too sure that you get notified about all the latest uploads (there are always some, o.k.). ... and exactly that's the problem. :-)

Iljuschin: I have several contacts, marked as family and as friend, or both, who's pictures simply don't appear in my network pages. Whenever they upload new pictures, I don't see them in my notifications. I only discover them by pure incident, when I visit their stream.

Hm. I have to track this issue, never noticed. Maybe i visit my friends without network page attention, they are my friends... ;-)

That's the best way to keep in contact, I agree! ;-)

It was just unfortunate that one of our friends had an important message, after he was gone (for that very same reason) for quite a while - so we stopped going in his stream (because we were relying on the network notifications) and completely missed it. And that's the point when everything started to boil over.

But now Christophe has made a (much appreciated!) statement, and we will wait and see ...

Ok, I found the statement. And I checked today the network pages. You are complete right, friends page complete empty although there were new entries, same on contacts pages, simply missing pictures without a explicit reason why. I did not remarked this, because I visit tghe most sites proactive. Maybe this explains the falling visiits on my new pictures (hell, and I thought my pics are getting more and more shitty ;.)

don't panic concerning your pics ... it's the same phenomenon elsewhere. :-))

No, your pics are probably NOT getting more and more shitty. It's just that your friends don't see them anymore, hence the fewer visits ;-)

I'm glad you found the problem we are discussing about, Iljuschin - and as I said, I hope the dev's will fix it soon, so we can all enjoy ipernity as we did before.

I am still very happy with Ipernity! The only feature that I am dealy waiting for, is the possibility to hide pictures from the main gallery (but show them in albums), and that might be coming sometime in the future :-)

Jes, this feature will be great, along with arranging album order...

je ne sais pas... :((

Coming from a user's blog (?)

I never use network pages, I use google reader, once a week [between 1200 and 1400 photo's]
And I visit all the streams of my contacts at least twice a month and still like it
I vote and comment more then 30 photo's every week
I run 2 groups and participate in some other groups
I have seen all jake's photos and voted 63 of them [see This]
I'm blocked by mad.melon [I'm a lurker]
I drink a lot of coffee [no milk, no sugar]
I like the flatness of my country
I still have a F****r account, but I like ipernity better
my most favorite ipernity member is soepkipje
I'm not very good in social interactions ; ]
I like the ''Small village" atmosphere on this site
I find it very inspiring to see the work of you all
I miss some members, learned a lot of them
I will stay for a while longer, sorry ; ]

lol

Do you want to marry me OP ?

Of course I want to marry you, Christine ; ]

I always use the network pages ... and comment a lot of pictures (nearly) every day,
I like both of your groups (although I use the noise&dust only for squared fake ttvs) ... and I think you do a great job with your weekend walk. thanks for that.
I try not to touch mad.malon's pics, because I know that she hates people, who just look and don't leave a comment.
I drink my coffee with milk.
my f*** account is still there for the fav mosaics, but I don't use it.
I like the royal flatness in your colours and visit soepkipje's bread shop very often.
I don't think that you are not good in social interactions, because it's always fun when you're around.
I'll stay at ipernity, although I miss some people ... hoping, that some of them will be back.
:-)

still want a koekje with your coffee???

well, I finished my coffee a while ago ... maybe tomorrow.
but thanks for asking me. :-)

luckily aze and maanavi are back!!!
