Title: Forum connection problems
Post by: Paint Your Wagon on September 21, 2010, 02:47:25 AM

For 3 days now I have to try up to 20 minutes to get on the forum and posts take up to 3 minutes
Anybody else having problems ?

I average about two "warnings" a week from the host concerning problems but never encounter any on this end. I am not so sure it isn't a myriad of servers trying to work together to take care of all of us. Will keep an eye on it so keep me posted. Don't want to lose any of my friends due to technical error! ;)

I just wanted to be sure it was not my computer generating the problem
I added addblock in firefox and since that did not help siteblock
I am tired of getting new windows and new tabs opening with the add for playing poker
( site is in Gibraltar and I guess illigal ; but that does not bother them , they avert pop up blockers since technically they are not a pop up and they avert addblockers by putting full menu text as well. Siteblocker seems to have stopped them halfway ; I get a blank new window now )  ::)

I had problems crossing the moat last night. Couldn't get in for a couple of hours.
All is OK now.

I couldn't get in today so I came in the back door singed in OK but then got lost and could not even log out. I think I may have got lost down in the dungeon.  ;D  Seems like every thing is fine now.
