Is anyone else having "Server Not Found" or "Server Is Taking Too Long To Respond" errors when attempting to access the site? I've been having the difficulty for some time now, (2-3 months) but lately it's been much worse. Best case scenario I'll connect on the 3rd attempt, and at worst I'll have to surf other sites for approximately a 1/2 hour and then return to try again- makes no difference what browser (IE or Firefox) I use, or time of day.... /Duck
BOO- YA!!!

I have had that problem also couple of months now. I am using Firefox. It could happen any time a day and last almost an hour.

Happening to me too. Mac/Safari browser working fine for other sites, but the forum sometimes drops out temporarily.

Sometimes the site just goes out while I'm on. Like last night, I was replying to a posting and suddenly the site went down. Everything else (other sites) worked fine. I use Firefox.

Happens to me as well, if I leave the site and come back a hour or so later it's usually O.K. My theory is as the site becomes more popular with more members and guests at certain times of the day it becomes overloaded. On the other hand I could be talking a load of doggy do-do and it's something completely different!!

Happens to me all the time. I just keep trying and it works on the forth or fifth try. Just think if our cars and trucks ran like our computers.

Same problem here....just a different twist. I can view the site without logging in and 99% of the time no trouble.But when I'm logged on and try to go from post to post or "back" to the main topics , I get the" server not responding" message quite often.....can't even log out. I have to open a new page and not log in to check out the latest posts.Still the best site on the web!!! Barry
