Am I the only numbnut?

This new feature "Notes" I find silly and not needed.  We have messages to send each other. Its taking so much time to answer messages and then notes. I dont want to offend anyone that has send me a "note" please this is just alot of work to answer when your on all these drugs. Like to check messages once a day and then reply.

I really dont want to be a stick in the mud either but I wanted to know if Im the only one that feels this way?
Please thank you all who did send me notes, just rather you sent messages instead. Whats the difference.
This Riba really  puts you in the twilight and its hard enough sitting at a computer sometimes, but to reply to all of this is overwhelming sometimes because of these drugs.

I dont mean to be a party poooper and if it werent for all of you I would be "lost" right now. This is a great informative forum with wonderful people.

I just cant deal with the "note" feature.

Please dont stop communicating just send messages.
Hoping all of you know where Im coming from.
Love,

Okay, haven't been around much. What are these Notes and how do you send or not send them?

We're supposed to answer those things ??????
Really? I didn't know that! Sorry ! I figured they were just like a quick 'hey, see so & so's post on fluffy poo' :)      
  Didn't even know I had them for days!

So agrees, at first i thought they were kind of cute, but they are bugging me to death!

Nash I wish they would let you set whether you want them or not.  

I much prefer private messages,   like jd no ones business who i pm, or what i say.

Totally with you Gloom!

Maybe a good solution would be a way for each individual member to have an opiton to turn off/on the note feature. That and remove all notes from the recent activity box.

Im real real glad you all agree. I didnt want to offend anyone. I didnt have those intentions..

Just think we are losing focus in helping and supporting people on the forum with this disease, by being distracted by pretty little stick em notes that are not needed.

I feel like new and old people here are getting the short end of the stick cause everyone is so busy sending notes. Messages work great and really like em!!

Thanks for supporting me on this.

I'm with you too. I would rather just receive/send a msg. Also bugs me to look at the recent activity box and see nothing but who sent notes to who.

I'm sure my daughter in her early 20s would love the feature. Don't think any of my 3 boys would care for it. I'm a male in my early 40s and it seems more well suited for young adult females.

Yeah, I"m with you.  I'd prefer to keep with messages.  It's starting to feel like Facebook.  Next thing you know we're going to have apps to install where we can have "Foodfights" and such with each other.  Yikes.

Hope you are keeping well.

We can be numbnuts together!  That notes thing is one too many features, not private either.
