Forum Problems??
Am I the only one having issues with this forum being down? I know it was out of commission for a while, but even recently it's been a crap shoot whether or not it's working. I'm hoping it's not just me...

I have been out for the last 36 hours. There are definitely problems. I tried to sign in but it would not recog my pw or user id - three times. But it did have me cached when I came in the back way so I'm on. This sign in procedure needs to looked at by the IT guys because it's very strange and I brought this up this week and everybody acted like I was from outer space. In the past when the database reports an error like this it's just a matter of rebooting and everything was normal. I still think we're fighting some left over gremlins from the server crash a month or so ago.

Thanks, 'Drew, but I'm not the guy to thank. I did what I could. I have been on the hardware side of this for years but when it gets to the software side I put my hands in my pockets. They will get to the bottom of it because these are the most sleepless mfers on the planet.

It's not just you, I have been having troubles as well.
Just food for thought, but have the owners of the site thought about setting up a donation system in which you can get an "upgraded" membership, which allows you to upload pics, more PM's in your inbox, less advertising, etc etc. Many of the other forums I visit have it, and it's a nice feature. I would gladly put 20 or 30 bucks down a year to help keep a quality site like this running! I know it's not much, but something has to be better than nothing, right?
