this only works 'cause it's free. and even then... blah. - Unsubscribed , posted 02/09/06 |

I'd have given it a zero, but that wasn't an option. Pheh.... it's awful. harder to navigate, and no new benefits. just new stuff I don't like. - Ms. K , posted 02/09/06 |

Things have changed.Thats the nature of life.I agree with 95% of what folks have posted on this subject b4 me.But at this stage I dont expect the old design to return.Im just glad that most of the old style content that I used befor is still here.Ill try to make the most of the "new tribe". - Alt , posted 02/05/06 |

It is so sad...like toyotas trying to look like mercedes and mercedes trying to look like toyotas...tribe has become friendster in the blink of an eye...it so sux. ;< - Venus , posted 02/03/06 |

I don't understand why they would make tribe worse and less appealing to it's user base. NOw it just looks like one of any hundreds of other myspace-esque websites. le-sigh - Pavlos , posted 02/01/06 |

The layout is kind of easy to follow, yet there is this fragmentation I feel from it. The old one flowed much better. - Unsubscribed , posted 02/01/06 |

Hopefully some web designing team lost their jobs. - Unsubscribed , posted 02/01/06 |

but I'm not that thrilled with the functionality (or lack there of) now - shenanigans , posted 02/01/06 |

At least with the old one you could check for new posts by scrolling and din't need to click. It's just way too 'IN YOUR FACE'. - Rage , posted 02/01/06 |

I hate it, it looks like a hospital where is the funk and why should I keep this going it sucks to come to Tribe anymore. I find myself using it less and less. I'm thinking very seriously of dumping the tribe or at the very least staying away from it and just letting it stay as is. Yuck! I cannot even stand to look at all this whiteness and sterile crap it hurts. TH - Thomas , posted 02/01/06 |

also is it just me or does the website choke firefox if you leave it up for awhile? I think it's something to do with the ads. - Binary , posted 02/01/06 |

I'm with the school of thought that says the recent tribe changes are just a smoke screen to all the 'selling out' cr@p that has been going on lately. It's hard to blame just tribe though when so many of us are enabling them through continued use of their site. Who knows what they are doing with our information? For that matter who knows what OTHER groups with our information is doing with it? My solution? Remain as ambiguous as possible. *looks in the mirror* Filthy stinking enabler! -  Robin

one thing i really don't like is how now when you go to your tribe homepage the local listings aren't there. this was a really cool feature of old tribe. i think the new look is more "professional" but garish. i hope someone who can do something about it actually reads these reviews. - Shonna , posted 01/31/06 |

i personally felt that the old page had some really difficult navigation quirks to it and it wasnt really that easy to navigate until you trial-& errored your way through. more of the same. nowdays, the wway the web comes through dynamic content management, therre is no reason that we shouldnt be able to change the way the skin look s to us as individual users, in the same manner as the way we can change the backgrounds on our user profiles. simple as that. listen to the users - Mythril , posted 01/31/06 |

I don't check out the side nearly as often, as I don't like the red bubbles, especially as they are all bumping around and not linear and easy to use. Really unpleasant. - Alcina , posted 01/31/06 |

This is insane and straight up disrespectful to the loyal users who made Tribe so unique and cool. It is like forcing someone to walk around wearing a huge label on their chest like Calvin Klien or something. Shame on them, whom ever they are. Why would you give a loyal customer aspartame when you know they came to your shop because you use to carry agave nectar? Insane !!...it's a damn shame. - Unsubscribed , posted 01/30/06 |

it doesn't appear that anybody is paying attention to the fact that we all hate this new site, but here it is again. Dude, this SUCKS. Change it back! - Meadowgirl , posted 01/30/06 |

Until someone can find something better - this really isn't the worst thing in the world. Still provides the same service~ - Unsubscribed , posted 01/30/06 |

I feel like I just walked into my favorite underground warehouse party and discovered that they'd added red vinyl booths and linoleum floors to neaten things up for some kind of conference of Midwestern McCompany CEO's... And they shifted everything 20 degrees to the left so that we can't find anything...I don't like it at all. Are they trying to keep up with mainstream sites like Friendster? I'm going to write to Wade and tell him to ck. out this stream of rants and raves about what's up with this site. - Superagent

I agree it sucks! I use to be on here everyday, several times a day, now I can't be bothered as it's much more difficult to check things out and navigate. Sometimes people think fancier, flashier, state of the art is better, but it's not. Still happy it's free, but unhappy it sucks. - Rachel , posted 01/30/06 |

complicated, fucked up, confusing...how do i navigate now?? where has everything gone??? events?? lame... - Taylor~Maiden~Space , posted 01/29/06 |

Tribe.com, I'm gonna try to be constructive here. So lemme break it down like this... Old look: Events for example: I used to be able to look up what events My Friends had posted for Tonight. New look: Now I have to dig through Everything Everyone has posted for a Two Week Period. To summarize: I think that the convience of the old look was much more valuable to me than the added sexyiness of the new site. And it isn't even that sexy. I don't need a sexy site. For god sake man! Leave the being sexy to the professionals. There are many fine users of this site who are extremely sexy. I dare say MUCH sexier than you-- tribe. You know it's kinda sad really. You were good enough allready. But then you got all big and your ego grew faster than you were ready for, so then you got insecure. But this is like getting a really bad nose job to make yourself feel better. You know who else did that... Michael Jackson Sputnick II over and out. - EnthusiAdam! , posted 01/29/06 |

Is this the tribalization of the mainstream or the mainstreaming of the tribe? the conspiracy theorist in me feels a smoke screen.... maybe they have us distracted by all this eshetic crap while they sell our personel info to the highest bidder... We give these corporate bastards too much power just by using thier service and yet the convienience it provides eggs us on. By giving us google they gave us an oracle... but in return we gave them our questions.... the only thing more valuable to the establishment than information is a flag to which of it is of interest. The corporation so happily provides this wonderful tribe.net service, allows us to catalyse our little revolution through networking and publicity. They also track our interests and associations, even our planning and organization is all documented and data searchable on line.... before you worry about how it looks ask yourselves this question.... is this service for us? or for THEM... - Spoon

i find the new design hurts my eyes, personally i hate white backgrounds. I often use a deep, black, grey or muted jewel-tone colour behind text and find it much easier to read. Tribe admins, do you actually sit in front of pure white screens all day? if so it has warped your minds. I don't think the new design is 100% bad, but it really does generate a vaccuum. give us the option to switch to a black background-type navigation, just like the ones available for my profile (could you come up with some new designs for those while you're selling my screen real estate?) get back to work guys!! - Roland - Stickshift , posted 01/29/06 |
