Is it just me or is anyone else having to re-do a reply about 800 times before it finally goes through? I have to copy/paste my reply and then use the back arrow/refresh/reply/paste/submit reply 20-30 times before my reply takes. :(

Same here, except that I'm not good enough on the keyboard to know how to save or paste my replies. So each reply has been typed three or four times. The only time I can seem to get through is 4 to 6 AM. Unless my stupid wireless mouse decides to go onto a catatonic trance...like this morning!
Dave???...help???!!!(not with the mouse!)

YES, Don't you guys read my TOP posts on the forums about the Network problems.

It is Webserver (overload) error. It only allows so many people at a time. It seems they have been adding many new websites to the "Shared" servers, thus slowing everyone down.

We are working on getting our own server, but it takes TIME and MONEY! Probably more of the latter. Until we can get some Advertising sponsors or donations to help defray costs....

As soon as we nail down a new server and get everything up and running again...we may have to put up with this problem....

I am sorry, but our current hosting company has already tried to help us by increasing the concurrent connections, but we keep exceeding the limits placed on our website due to the traffic....

Thanks for your patience.....:(

Thanks, Dave. You did post this before, none of want to admit how short our memories have become. We all know that you do keep a good eye on this place, and it is appreciated. Is there anyhting we, as 'members' can do to help or at least ease the problem? (But we haven't heard as much from you since the Yellow VIP Mach 1 showed up!):D :THUMBSUP:

Here's a suggestion Dave. You can take it or leave it, it's up to you. I've noticed that most of the other enthusiast sites have at least one forum area dedicated to "dues paying members only." In other words the "guests or non-paying members" don't get access to that area. I say you set it up here, and I'm sure there are enough of us that would gladly pay, say $20 bucks a year, for that privledge and it should go a long way toward defraying the costs of the web site. Just an idea.

Yes, I would like to setup a Membership subscription, theMEMBER's AREA currently can only be viewed by Registered member of the forum right now. But I can add other areas for Paying members.

Let me get some stuff together and post....

Thanks
