Forum Trouble

[c.o.]

tomcat1, thanks for the suggestion. I'm afraid "computer savvy" as far as techinical aspects go I am not. I did get the traceroute thing figured though but my computer isn't allowing it for some reason. I'll pick and prod at it and hopefully I can speed things up. It's painfully slow.

Bob, I hear you. When all the chaos was going on I was wondering how things would sort out. A lot of folks left with a bitter taste in their mouth and for the most part the people doing the flipping out have faded away. They'll be back though when political controversy strikes again. This has always been my favorite forum but I agree it doesn't have the pizazz it used to.

Lonnie, my computer is set to do automatic clean-up stuff. Every once in a while I do it manually just because..... I figured I'd check with the membership to see if anybody else was having troubles. This is the only site that's giving me grief.

Thanks for the replies fellas.

Cory, I've not had any problems. Have you checked with your internet provider? I have periodic issues with mine once in awhile. My provider has a help line that I call when I get truly stumped. Also, have you tried rebooting your router? One last thing, I have found that it helps to do the "Disk Cleanup" to get rid of certain files that do nothing but slow my system down. I do that several times a week.

Cory, The forum has been as slow as a constipated asshole for some time now but what difference does it make since the membership here has driven everybody away. All I hear from people is I can’t stand the bitching and I will no longer be posting. This was a great forum at one time. Bob L

If your computer savvy, perhaps do a traceroute to 67.205.40.18 and see if there is a bottleneck somewhere.

Thanks Dewey. This one has me scratching my head.

Cory....I have no problem with mine.

For roughly the last week I've had troubles with accessing the forum. It will eventually load but it takes forever. I sort of ruled out my computer as the culprit as any other web-site loads lickety split! I logged out and tried to access the forum from the main club page and it wasn't any better. I got an e-mail today from another member that is having similar problems. Is it just us or are others having issues? Like I said, it loads but it's like a real bad day with dial-up.
