You guys that are reporting slow loading of the forums have other problems.
I am sitting on a shared 56k dialup, and this board is [b]FAST!!![/B]
I would suggest that...
1. You upgrade your browser (IE, or Netscape).
2. Do some network diagnostics (check with pings, or traceroutes). It maybe downstream from you that is the bottleneck. Or maybe your netowrk Admin has no fucking clue on how to setup thier network. But don't complain about the pages loading slow.
3. Check your own network settings on your system. Is your NIC set to 100/full, 100/half, 10/half (just make sure that it is what the network is designed for, again check with your network admin)
4. Check your proxy servers. Are you using the proper proxy server? Is your proxy server overloaded?
As for the Black/grey text/background. Deal with it. Or even better yet, give your eye doctor a call you may need an eye exam. Black text on White background on a computer is actually the worst thing for your eyes.
Now for "Where did "for sale" go?"... Dude get some glasses, or learn to read. It is at the top right of the default page when you enter the forums.
And finally... "Everything on the old board seems to be lost." [red]NO SHIT SHERLOCK!!![/red] The old board is [blue]BROKEN!![/blue] All the old posts are stuck in the bit bucket from hell untill someone gets time to go to the old board and fix the damn thing.
My final words... You want some cheese with your whineing??
Just be grateful that you have a place to talk about one of the greatest rifle made!
Flame on!!! [pyro]
