OK, Doug. Good point.

The 'cat has been slow-loading for many moons--not consistently, but frequently. Of late, it has been a chore for folks from many places to get on the Mudcat. Hard to logon--or impossible, thus making it necessary to use the alternate server. The problem is not restricted to one locale or country. Today so far it has been a long wait to see if I could get on or if my computer would time out. Other people have had the same problem. My question was to management. Is there an identifiable problem, and if so, what can we do to help.

We have brains here (I ain't one of 'em) who know lots about computers and systems, servers and hardwear/softwear. (Those things are just words to me.) But those things aren't just words to some Mudcatters. If I am told, for example, that I am posting too many things, I will cut down the number of posts. If it is something over which there can be control taken, then for me, I need to hear it from management. I love this place 99% of the time. It is a valuable site for many reasons for many people. Thus, my questions:

1) What's the problem?
2) What can we do to help?

Thank you for asking that, Doug.

PS I just called you a Republican on another thread. I should apologize for that. LOL
