Hate this site on a Wednesday!

:mad: :mad: :mad:

First time I've managed to get on all day, I'd forgotten it was Wed till this site reminded me.

I've just tried to ask a question and twice I get logged out and my post gets lost. I'm going to have a nice cup of tea and be calm now. I just needed to vent my frustration. :o

    I just lost a new thread I had hoped to start on Discussion Time, despite repeated screen refreshes, so I gave up in the end :rolleyes: .

    I received the weekly email at 12.29 today though, so I didn't think it was due to pressure on the servers.

    Maybe time to dust the rubber bands again? ;)
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    It cos of the weekly email probably.

    Everyone who gets it clicks on the links so it slows down init :)

    We are trying to work on 'dealing with Wed'. We have tried spreading the send out - so emails are sent from around 9pm on Tue night to 5pm on Wed. We'll get there, but the sheer numbers mean the Forum especially suffers (the main site is a much simpler piece of software, so it does it with ease)

    Martin, I got the email twice yesterday, at 12.29 and again at 20.18. Don't know if this was general, but if so it might explain the situation a bit.

    Nelly I hadn't thought of the knock-on effect i.e. people clicking on the links - thanks for that, it makes good sense.:T

    If I do a long post which isnt often I'll admit I copy it first the if the worst does happen then you can either paste it later or paste it into noteped and save it.

    Yes always makes me laugh too :mad:

    I do what nelly suggested and tend to write them in another program now and then copy into here.

    Still cheeses me off no end.
    Regards,

    If only I had a pound for every time I used the thanks button :D
