Is the board running slowly or is it just my rinky-dink dial up?

It's moving like molasses for me when I use Netscape Navigator 4.7.  Can browse posts (slowly) but can't login to post anything.

However, it's flying like a breeze with Internet Explorer 5.0.  Browsing, posting all are fine.

And to answer your question, yes, other people are having problems, too.  Look at the small volume of posts over the last hour or two.  Normally this is prime time for this board but topics aren't moving at all.

The latter- same with mine, too (56K modem! Holy Clinton era, Batman!)- and besides, everybody in your area is probably on line as well at this time- they sure are in my neighborhood- I can look out the window and see computer screens in about four houses right now (I live in a suburban development- Nerdistan....)

I'm using IE 5.0, and it's as slow as molasses for me, too.  It's not your dial-up guys, it's the site.

BTW, As the grammer patrol, I just have to add this:

a [b]sight[/b] is something you look at

a [b]site[/b] is a place you go to.

So, this place is a [b]site[/b]
