Do you ever get upset if a website changes its features? Like, if they reorder things differently when you have gotten used to what was there before? I was just wondering if this was just me or if other people went through this.

I hate when a website changes and reorganizes its features. It becomes distressing for me to have to get used the changes they've made and sometimes I get frustrated and have to leave that site because the new changes are distressing for me. I remember once when Myspace changed its whole site and I actually messaged them and told them about my AS and asked if there could be an option to keep the old myspace.

But they had told me there was nothing they could do and in time I would be able to enjoy the things that were to come. Mind you, I still hate myspace and its new changes. I can't stand when everything changes because I get used to something and then when it changes, I feel like I can't use it because I was so used to everything before those changes.

Does anyone else with AS feel this too or is it just me?

Yeah. It drives me nuts at times. That's why it took me 3 years before I stopped using IE, because I didn't like the different (although better) interface of firefox.

I had a free site I used for my hobby and then it changed its features for security and was awful to edit. So I went looking to teach myself some html and just modified a blogspot page.

I was irritated when gmail moved the reader tab at the top into the drop down menu.

Yeah and to make things worse, I just emailed tumblr about my concerns and I get their stupid automated response reply crap. I mean don't you think it would be nice if they had a little decency to understand the concerns might have? I understand they can't change it just for one person but... what's wrong with having an option to change between the old and new? Is that so hard to do?

I get so tired of the website changes. I mean aren't they supposed to make their site more "accommodated" for those with disability concerns? I do consider my AS to be a disability because it disables me from handling changes. amirite?
