    I think if you donate the problem goes away, as I used ot see this years ago but have never had a problem since.

    Donating has nothing at all to do with the problem . The site owner is aware of it and is working on a solution. It's driving all of us a bit crazy.

    Please be patient. At this moment that's all we can do.

    It seems lately that if I've written a message and try to post it - with the site-down coming up instead - I can just go back a page and what I wrote is still there. Seems like in the past it'd just be gone, which was frustrating given the vast efforts and thought I put into each message :)wink:) for which I sometimes forget to highlight and copy it before submitting. I appreciate (greatly) that I can back-page and what I wrote is still there.

    Some of my devices lose the written post altogether if I don't save it with a copy and paste, and some devices will have the message in tact if I go page back. I save everything anyway in a different location though, since so much of what I write here is censored. I have to keep a separate record of all this censorship, since it is documentation for a piece that I am writing about politically motivated censorship. Even this very post gets saved elsewhere before and after I submit it.

    This is happening at lots of political forums. This is all part of Trump's effort to silence opposition on this sites. His thin skin is just getting thinner.

    I heard it was Dick Cheney's weather machine affecting sunspot activity that was causing the servers to crash!

    At least, that's what they're saying over at MSNBC!

    Yes! Far-right wing, Deplorable, Republican Russian hackers! That's what was doing it! :eekeyes:

    But, it looks like these Nazi hacker-monsters must have stopped. No more problems anymore, as of Friday evening, 6 PM, Mountain Standard Time. Believe me, these things can happen to any site. :applause:
