You can either not follow the site's life OR act surprised when things change. You can't have both. (You can, but then you're not being reasonable.)
I think this site is very transparent about its processes and changes, certainly more transparent than other similar sites. We have a suggestion box, announcements of upcoming changes and regular polls about major decisions. I also send everyone an instant message when something big is coming up or when I'm starting new polls. You can ignore all that, of course, but then kindly don't act like it's all my fault.
Regarding the question here, for those who didn't bother reading site news for 2 months straight: Galleries now have some XXX pics. This is new. These pics can only be viewed by donating members. All other pics remain visible to everyone.
Lately when I click on some profile pics to enlarge them it says that only contributing members can do this. What is the reason for this change? It seems like lately more things are becoming only for paying members, but the reason this site was better than some others was that it was free.
Are there other things that will get changed to pay only soon?
You've been a member of this site since 2013 and you don't know how this part works? This has been the behaviour of the site since before you have joined.
If you read the site news, you'll know of any forthcoming changes or improvements to the site.
If you want to ask admin a question, you use the help section of the website. It's for help. The clue is in the name.
You are right, I have been a member for a couple years, but I have never had this happen to me before when I click on a pic to enlarge.
And I am so sorry that on the gay website that I come on only a couple times a week (at best), I don't read the news section. I feel terrible. I am sorry that we don't all have the type of life that allows us to be experts around here.
