Go on folks, give Live Cloud a go.. (If you haven't already...) 
I joined about 3 weeks ago, and thought 'I am not liking this at all, as it's so confusing,' and I only posted several messages on it. But then I realised that this forum is going soon, so I better give it a go, or lose touch with the lovely and funny and amazing folk on here.
The forum members on here make me laugh out loud at times, and they share their stories about their life and their baby pics and so on, and when I have ever had any issues or problems, I have posted them on here, and loads of people respond with really helpful and kind replies... I mean, you guys helped me pick the name of my new kitten! And you're all so funny and sweet and we all get on so well and this forum - even though it's full of cyber friends - is such a cool place to be.
I know some people only want the FORUM, and I think that this is what most people 'do' want, but there will be one over there soon. When you join, where it says 'sites' (on the black bar on the top of the page,) there will (so I have been told LOL,) an icon to click for gagajoy, and it should take you straight to a forum like this one...) Not yet, but soon...
I have been posting on these 2 places so far.

On the second link, (the support one,) you should see a page where all the posters online are showing. If you click on their name, it should give you an option on the right hand side of the page, to add them as a buddy. If you see someone you know, (and you will I am sure,) just add them as a buddy. If you click on 'add dialog,' you can send them a Private message.
THEN roll your mouse over the 'ticker' on the black bar on the far left... and 2 options drop down 'my ticker' and 'my alerts.' Click on 'my alerts' and it will let you know who has accepted you as a buddy and who is requesting you to be THEIR buddy,
If you click on dialogs, (also in the black bar at the top
you can see if anyone has messaged you.
And if you click on 'me' at the top of that black bar, and click on 'my buddies,' you will see all your buddies there and you can talk to them via PM as you can on here. You can fill in your profile there too, like your birthdate and location and stuff and put an avatar up...
Finally, if you click here:
https://www.hoo.do/explo...ategoryToShow/GROUPS
You will see a forum called 'The Sinking Ship:' click onto that and quite a few people from here are in THE BAR, which is a sub-forum, halfway down the page... You can also get to that 'sinking ship,' by going back to the black bar along the top again, and clicking on 'explore' and 'groups' and it was in there.
If you go into the BAR, you should find people from here in there too, and you will soon get the hang of where you mates are. And where most others are too.
It's a bit weird at the moment, because people are dotted about a bit forum-wise, but after a wee while, we will all start to figure out where we are meant to be. Just join up and add a few buddies, and then you can message them if you are worried or confused, and can't figure out where you should be.
So go on, join up, don't be scared or worried or daunted, and don't be sad or upset. No-one likes change; I know I hate it, but at least give livecloud a go; we dont want to lose anyone.
I have heard several people I like a lot, saying they have no intention of coming over, and I'm not posting this to try and moan at people or anything; it's just to encourage people I like and many others like too, to come over so we don't lose contact with you!
See you there.. (hopefully...)

YOU HAVE ALL BE WARNED: I might add buddies to names I recognise. 
As several people on here have already said, (on various threads,) we don't want to lose peope. Feel free to add me a a buddy if you want 
I clicked on "blog" but all that came up were postings from other ppl. Did not see how to post a new thread?
