I think we all can get over a day or so of downtime in comparison to the near month we endured at the end of last year. Thanks to El Scorcho we have had nothing more than some verty minor nuisances since we switched hosts.

We'll keep you posted on when our short time offline will occur. We are going to try and do it at the least inconvenient time possible this summer.

Same here. I have to log in twice every few hours.
I should also mention that it doesn't matter if I'm using IE or Firefox.

Thanks for all the responses. Hope this didn't sound like a complaint as I'm grateful to those who host/admin the board. But it's nice to know it's not just me! :)

You kidding me? I have class every morning at 8am. I have 7:50's all semester last year, and 7:40's this coming semester. Yea, I'd much rather sleep in, but I have to work in the afternoons.

Nope. Been working for me just fine.

I must have left the midget filter on. Sorry.

That's just Jeff Gordon finding a new way to screw with you again.

same problem today- then all of the sudden, the floodgates opened.

now it loads instantly, but doesn't erase the "new post" icons.

so basically I get on quickly, then re-read the same posts over and over again.

I think the KGB is behind it.
