Excellent---"for going the extra mile for others." Service Above Self is…Read More Rotary....Excellent!

Totally understand your frustration. I continue to email Jim and use the button at the…Read More bottom of the front page to send comments about problems with the new format to the tech team.
I suspect they don't care unless they are made to care. Brent really took Patch to heart and responded to every person as if they were all important. That is part of what made him such an exceptional editor.
So far Jim has contacted me twice, once to chastise my use of the word terrorist and then to correct my spelling of Pat Eklund's name. I added a "c".
I am not sure how to bridge the gap with the new guys but have not given up entirely due to the encouragement from Pete and Joe. They have renewed my belief that the news is for everyone and we mustn't allow trolls to take over.

Ventress ,
Common sense tells you if you block your e mail address you will receive nothing . The…Read More trolls have not taken over as they have just put people like you out of business with your phony stories . Why do we need to keep reading your crying when you say you are gone ? Please take your friends with you as the regular readers do not want your garbage

Moylans has always been there for us. They rock! They also provided the brew for my biz opening…Read More party and they are an important part of Novato.

Thankful for Moylan's Brewing, and their commitment to the community. Support locally owned business…Read More first in Novato.

Where's the daily/weekly weather report? It used to be at the top of the front page? I really liked…Read More reviewing it with just a glance.

This new site is great . I wonder if the Posters who wanted to run the old Patch site with all…Read More the phony garbage/ postings are sneaking a peak to see a new / better patch . They all complained and said they will quit if not changed back. Guess what folks We have always told you if you want change you need to get out of your computers face and take action . We did just that and look at our reward, A new site for regular people who have common sense .. Thank You Patch

Making us start over is the plan to wear us down. Free press is paid for by advertisers, and…Read More pressure is put out to stifle stories. That's what the tobacco industry did to 60 Minutes, and the Isreli government did to the Goldberg Report. The United Nations couldn't put out the story of mass genocide of the Palestinian people, and we'll be kicked off the blog soon because we don't advertise.

I thought I was being overly suspicious but the new site eliminated months of research and…Read More commentary and has replaced it with irrelevant banter and Ads.
It won't even let you edit thoughts into smaller blocks or comment directly to another post. It is the ultimate dumbing down of Patch.
If you have been following the Plan Bay Area debate here is a link to the response from the Supervisor's:

We got sold down the river by the developers. Under the guise of a new improved format, they just…Read More erased our history. Now we have to start defending our town all over again, while they are already in gear. Some of the opponants of AH can't get on anymore. Brent would not have allowed this to happen. Maybe that's why he left so suddenly, and unexpectedly.
