Slow?

Some days, this forum is very slow. You click the refresh button, and it takes 5 minutes to refresh. Somtimes it only takes 4 seconds.

Why's that?

Can't answer why, but it's happening quite often this time… Maybe the "New" forum is a little bit too "fat" (loading pictures, a lot of "new comers" and all) ?

Go Diet ?

The new format needs to take a diet, try and cut down on the carbs and weight-train some more

I do notice that, whenever I check in then go away for a second (to check my e-mail, check other message boards, check that Janet Reno nude picture I'm trying to download) then return, I have to log in again and that's when it starts getting sssssssslllllllllloooooooowwwwwwww

Anyway, I'm sure it's nothing serious. America can survive :p

I know the problem still involves the statistics calculation, for some reason it now goes forever and I can't stop it.

There is a really weird configuration problem with this server, I hope I'll be able to fix it soon.

I think I have the solution, Nic...start eliminating NOOLers who bring nothing to the discussions but hot air, pointless musings, and odd obsessions with washed-up American TV stars who have successful singing careers in Germany of all places...

Wait...no, I didn't just...argh!

In order to cover increasing maintenance costs, WenOrder and Spotnick are currently powering the site's server via bicycle pedal-power generator every other night, please bear with.

Much like Lance Armstrong's gig in Bristol, Conn., according to a classic Sportscenter commercial

You gotta do what (12-hour power shortage...and we're back) you gotta do...what?

Luke...Luke...I mean, Taboo, join me; together we can rule the universe....

Ahhh, screw it. I go on a bende....errr, vacation for a while, and I come back, and has my son joined me in conquest of the universe? NOOOOOOO. No, not him. He's too busy prancing about the sheep meadows. Together, we coulda had babes all over us.

So screw it. NOT the sheep, son. Just "it." Screw "it," as in, I'm outta here. I'm going to go get shitfa...errr, I'm going to go play a few gigs in Germany.

We coulda been contenders.

Oh no, not this shit again...

that's always the problem with "statistics" and "calculation",

Herm, sorry (shouldn't post this one) … I've got a mathematics allergy for a long time.

[Where do people find those incredible pictures of David Haselhoff ? Is he sometimes having clothes on a picture ? I mean jean/tee-shirt style ?]

NOOL drives me nuts when it gets stuck...

I find shutting down the window and starting again helps, but sometimes i'm locked out for hours.

Good to know it's a problem for other people; I can let one more conspiracy theory go now...
