    And your boss has to pay a fortune for that 'service'.

    Slow service is frustrating - although I didn't know if it was an internet connection or this particular site causing this issue.

    What is more annoying, to me, is that adults can't disagree without being snarky.

    And although I don't get ads, I thought it was b/c of a popup blocker on my computer, as I've had ads pop up when I was on this site while at other computers? So now I'm wondering - really - how it works?

    I am not one of the people trying to fix the board, however I am tired of the complaining! Even though all those things are bothering you, you did get on the board to complain! Stop the pressure and let them get their job done as best they can. Working on a computer is more complex than some people can imagine.

    To those of you who are working to fix the board and I might add while it is up and running, I for one think that you are doing a wonderful job, I like the changes and appreciate what you have done for the board and in turn for us!

    THANK YOU, YOU ARE APPRECIATED.

    TreeFrog
    Very greatful for their hard work and dedication

    I think professional use of a computer is a totally different issue. I come here at no cost of my own and I just totally appreciate being able to feed my addiction at no out of pocket expense. So thanks to those who help me with that even though there may be computer issues. Thanks to them for doing their best to fix it.

    The owners of this board need to know what is going on from a consumers point of view and convenience with their internet service, Good , Bad or indifferent.

    We are consumers.

    Hey TreeFrog......Ignore the grumps...LOL! The administrators of this board will get the bugs worked out in due time. If people can't understand this then if they allow themselves to get frustrated enough to piss of the new people that are running this board, by constantly complaining, to the point of them shutting down the board well then......that would indeed be a shame now wouldn't it.

    Chill out peeps, relax, do some quilting, have a cup of coffee or tea and let the admins relax and get their job done. After all, this board is priviledge, it is free for us, don't be so demanding.

    It's better that they do the maintance on it in stead of have it go down. I haven't said much about it as the maintance is needed and updates to keep the board up and running.
