The server, or whatever it is, SUCKS.

It just took me ONE HOUR to post a reply -

So, I submit to you, that the problem is NOT fixed.

Mods - SOMEONE - Senax, you seem to have time on your hands - GET THIS THING FIXED, PLEASE???

A couple of weeks back I actually offered (via JP) to buy this site a brand new server, if they were having trouble. But the word I got back is, "the owner is often absent and doesn't pay much attention to the site", and so I promptly withdrew the offer, 'cause if the owner don't care, then neither do I.

But yeah, I'm about ready to walk too.

I don't have time to a) sit here and wait a god(*)(*)(*)(*) hour for a post to complete, and b) go back and edit posts repeatedly 'cause they've been multi'd by the errant server or errand software or whatever the POS is that's causing this problem, and c) try to navigate through other peoples' multiple posts....

This situation is completely ridiculous. No self-respecting web site would let this go on for more than a micro-second.

Get thiS FIXED, 'kay?

Thank you.....

Non,
I emailed the owner last week. I told them of the problem, of the fact that many "regulars" are leaving due to the slowness, and that the general morale of the board is dropping.

It's amusing to me that you think I spend a lot of time here. I can assure you that in comparison to yourself, it's but a blink of an eye. I'm further amused that you assume I can fix a server problem when in fact only the owner can. I am no more than any other mod- that is to say I cannot do anything to the board to enhance page loading speeds etc... Essentially I'm a user that has the ability/power to edit posts and move them to other categories. I also have the ability to ban, but can do nothing relating to server issues.

I was just contacted today by the owner saying that we're on a new server and the problem should be fixed. I have no reason to doubt them, but just like you I'll wait and see how things go from here.

Thank you for your patience, but please... stop assuming things about me. I understand your frustration as I have had to deal with the same exact problems you have. Still, there's no reason to lose your temper and expect me to "Get it fixed...'kay?"
