yes that has happened to me today at least 10 times... I dont know what is going on...

Same deal here. I just got in now but it took a little while. I've been getting error messages and "cannot connect to database" for the last hour mostly.

Which form theme is the lowest in graphics, or the low-fi version in the profile? I switch to that to lower the hit on the server on other forum sites.

I've had several problems getting here both last night and early this afternoon with a "Bad Response from Server" error being the issue. Now that I'm here, I see that 256 people is what's keeping me out, along with 35 new users in the past 7 hours. And slow it is, especially whenever you go out to a board or into a topic.

Seems like only the forums, though. I can get to the home page with no problems.

This is my third try posting this now.

I get the cannot connect to server. But I am also getting (that I see no-one else is) XTML page not available-white space not allowed. That must be with my computer. I downloaded a new spyware last week I wonder if that is what is wrong with me besides the problems everyone else is having. But I only get the error on this website no where else. I am sure they are working on the problem.

I'm having similar problems. It takes a long time to open posts, to make replies, to open a new threat, basically to move in the forum. I noticed it's only with the forum because with other webpages I have no problems.

Chad and Marshall are aware of the problem and are trying to find it now. It is not a server issue but seems to be a software glitch somewhere. Techs are trying to figure it out. We're sorry for the inconvenience. :(

Also, the board has temporarily been set to be viewable by registered members only while we work on the problem.

Marshall and I have made some changes.. Not sure if the speed up so far is because of the Changes... We are continuing to work and we are still no where near where we should be
