In this day and age of Trump did this and Trump did that, is it not possible and plausible for someone to be interfering with OUR network ?
I am not experiencing the slowdown of which this thread speaks, but I have in the past been part of a general cluster.
After my almost twenty years, I'm giving FR and The Robinson's all the room they need and my support.
I agree with you but my main beef with JimRob is that we were essentially doing what FaceBook does 20 years ago- JimRob should be as rich as Suckerberg.
This site has millions of readers and essentially no changes in programming in 15 years.
JimRob always said he wouldn’t take advertizing (and the $billions of dollars that come with it) because he didn’t want to sell out to ‘the man’ ... But we LIKE capitalism here, don’t we?
I'm with you on this. I make my observations with the full expectation The Robinsons would want to know if their system is functioning correctly or not. Oddly, some people seem to take that as implicit criticism of some sort, I don't know why.
That said, I have also long thought there is something malicious going on from the "enemy". What makes me wonder is that the real problems seem to occur at critical times (during the election, for example) but Occam's Razor always brings me back to the explanation that the servers are operating marginally and can meet the demands during normal traffic, and heavy traffic pushes it over the edge.
But I did get very suspicious during the election.
I have long suspected interference.
If I were rich, I’d fund an investigation.
Totally agree. I, too figure evil, low life scum hackers would do anything to slow down or damage FR. aaaaaaaach.
No pop ups here, no ads.. please everyone become a monthly donor or just please donate. Life without FR would be rather boring.
