My Gather habits have not really changed much. I am disappointed that the points for viewing have pretty much gone away, but I find that I am as still as addicted to Gather as ever and I still have a hard time getting out of Gather to go do things like go to bed or go to work or do anything around the house (aren't those signs of an addiction?). Thankfully, my husband is the one who got me started on Gather, so he spends a lot of time here, too.
I am trying to do more posts and pictures than I used to, which is a good thing because I have thousands of pictures that I have taken and not posted yet. I need to either get a lot of them posted or get rid of some of them.
I have enjoyed making Gather friends, as well as having a place to share my pictures. I love to read and enjoy wandering around Gather reading all sorts of things and looking at pictures. So, no, the changes have not really changed my Gather habits. It is still one of the first places I check in each morning and the last one I check each night before I go to bed.

I don't know if it's because of the changes in the point system or the weather, but I am really having a hard time getting on here lately.
Yes, I have definitely changed habits. I used to view and comment for hours. Not anymore. I've also started promoting what I do post, as suggested, which takes a bunch of time. The result is that I make half as many points as I used to make and I don't have the time to view if I'm off promoting what I've posted.
Though I'm only getting 1/4 of the points I was getting before the change.. I figure I shouldnt change my habits. I may not be able to earn anything, but I can at least help those I'm connected with by viewing their content.
I, like you, am pretty much doing the same on here as before. No, the changes haven't changed anything that I do on here.
I'm viewing the same as I did before the change...and not making squat from that. I've also cut back even moreso on the amount of articles I posted before the change when I used to pick up a goos 150 points a day from that. Now, I'm lucky if I make 10 points off sharing a post making it not even worth the effort putting in the time to ceate an article. I can make more picking up empty pop bottles off the street in an hour than I can spending 10 hours here.
I am spending less time on here than I used to.
i still spend a lot of time commenting on photos and videos and post because if i don't then how can i suspect any one to comment on mine
I'm posting when I can, and I will be posting more photos once I get settle into my new place, when I take breaks from packing I'm on here, it helps me to unwind from all this stress I'm under...
No my habits haven't changed, except that it has prompted me to post more articles than before.
Yes, I only view the people I see supporting my content. I skip everything else.
My habits have changed. I am trying to promote the articles I do post and that takes time away from commenting. I concentrate on commenting on people who comment on my stuff and those on my friends list. Doing this means I now skip over content I may have checked put before. The promoting is getting me more views however the comments are I receive have been reduced. The comments were what encouraged me to post more articles.
I have changed because I rarely have access to comment. The glitches are too much, I can't comment and it takes too long to post.
I've had other issues taking up my time, but like you, I still enjoy getting on and seeing what others have to say.
They are in the process of changing...I am trying several things out and hopefully one starts working well for me!
