    I don’t care a bit to help out and donate to help this website. I enjoy coming here. I would imagine it something simple.

    The site is better than what it was on last Sunday.

    BUT, it still isn't what it should be.

    The site has been working really good the last 15 minutes or so I've been on. It's been a couple weeks since I've had a run like this.

    It’s a bit of a mixed bag for me regarding site performance. Happy to help with funding as this is an amazing site with all the people I’ve connected with and things I’ve learned.

    I work for the federal government and have to deal with computers on a daily basis. They are constantly running updates and patches to keep all the bugs and hackers out. I would imagine someone savory with websites and servers can update the forum and have it like new.

    The forum was running as it should be when I logged in.

    But then......

    Don't need added aggravation with something that doesn't work as it should.


    See ya later!

    It started out good today but the more I click the slower it gets. My internet speed is 400 mbps

    Forum is on fire with visitors. Wow, firewood is finally getting the recognition it deserves.

    Personally, I am convinced that the entire majority of "guests" are info gathering bots.

    Several websites I visit have this come up when first loading the page for the day.

    Even if so, this can't be a problem unique to FHC, how does everyone else manage it?!
