    I thought it was going the way of Planet Steeler.

    Ouch.

    It certainly gave me flashbacks.

    Glad this isn't the case.

    I'd wait for TTF's picture to appear on milk cartons before forming a search party. Others may be better off staying lost. :rolleyes:

    Keep in mind the proprietor of this fine establishment has a full time job and may not be on here everyday

    And then there is the time it takes to find the problem

    I sent him a PM I don’t know if that triggered anything but I’m taking credit

    I think this site runs very well from an IT perspective. It’s fast, stable, and mostly free of issues. With a good pop-up blocker, you barely notice any annoyances. To the posters experiencing any issues, your PC hard drive might be the issue. If you have an older PC, get it replaced with your bowerser re-loaded. You will notice a big difference and your PC will work as if it was a year old.

    The owner is likely using Cloudflare or a similar service tailored for small businesses. It provides solid protection on the WAN side and DDoS mitigation. I worked at Akamai the gold standard for cloud platforms that accelerate, optimize, and secure websites and applications. They’re a billion dollar a year company with a who’s-who client list, including major U.S. government agencies and big banks. I won’t spill any secrets, but I’d be happy to give the owner some advice if any issues arise. No charge and I won’t take any credit.

    JEH basically has that market cornered anyway :) He doesn't exactly work for free. No-- he donates his money to the site and self polices the board.

    He also collects for the board. JEH, by chance are you a part owner?

    No

    I’m just not cheap like you

    Ask mom for some milk money

    If you were actually any small part of what you pretend to be you could and should do your part

    So stop the whining
