Obviously, it is a help site that is owned by Cnet. Well, it may have changed owner recently. The first few years it was a very good site, but made lots of changes and many left the site. Just curious if anyone had been on the site or, for that matter, ever heard of the site.

Help.com went down the same road as AB, as once it was a great site, but not now MsD!
Sad..huh…still a little lost here…but we shall see

I used to. But they treated me like crap so i gave up.
good to see you here Ninjao!
I have never heard of that site, Cotton.
Pearls, it once was a great site, but they ruined it! help.com is a very strange site now. Cannot write here about the site.
I spent several years on Help.com. :-( I can’t really stand it on there anymore. I go on and try to answer questions from time to time, but the atmosphere is hostile and I’ve stumbled into several unrestrained flame wars. A friend of mine on help.com directed me here, and I’m quite thankful he did.
The site was sold to CBS. They either don’t have the resources to run the site properly or don’t care about the site’s fate. The chat module went down some time ago, old users cannot change their avatar and new users are stuck with generic swirl pattern avatars, new posts that have tags matching your interests are no longer sent to your notifications, with the change of ownership many moderators and some plain members were either given their walking papers or left of their own accord, etc.
In short, it is a mockery of what it use to be.

@Dan_DeColumna could have said it better myself…ahhh heck, that was a given my friend! loll
