It is well documented that these “performance issues” have plagued this forum for years in spite of the hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars that folks like yourself have “kicked in”. I used to think it was a coincidence that these performance issues walked hand in hand with the FReepathons, but I’d have to be a complete and utter fool to not see the connection; pardon the pun.

>> It is well documented that...

If you were educated about what it takes to operate a high profile website (or any type of business), you might be less inclined to complain about FR and its limited budget.

BTW, FR’s availability is not perfect, but very good.

Over a million of us use FR and we tend to overload the system when stories like yesterday breaks. You get multiple breaking news post because no one searched, you get more photos/graphics that can wait, along with a lot of useless Vanity post that can be saved for another day.

And there is equipment failures to cope with, cyber attacks from the leftist, etc.

We have overloaded the WH and Congress’s websites when we are angry over bills up...FR can be overloaded too.

I’ve been on this forum since ‘98 and never noticed that there are ‘performance’ issues during fund raising events.

What I have noticed is that the system gets overloaded during BIG news events. We may need a system upgrade to handle a bigger load of users.
