Totally agree with Kidd. Get ‘er done. Also, you should be preparing for the future. Get the word out. If you need more dough say so and get the money, make the upgrades. Many of us are already seeing FR crashing mulple times per day, or at least slowing down.
What we had seen early in the week should serve as a warning, not just to FR but to ANY conservitive website.
Put me down for a donation over and above my monthly.
I am not the only one having problems getting onto and posting on FR?
I couldn't agree more, and specifically I would support a separate "Mirror sites" fund; yes, with my checkbook.
Any suggestion that this thread be "Zotted" couldn't aid the enemy more...
I am not enough of a techno-geek beyond my own firewall to agree or disagree.
I can offer my observations whicj agree with Obadiah. FR has been remarkably slow these past few weeks. I haven’t noticed problems loading pages at FR ever. Not like this. I have to hit a link 2 or 3 times and when it works, it takes forever to load. There is almost a pattern to it.

I am NOT covered in tin-foil nor do I see black helicopters. I do believe in an extra measure of caution at times. :-)
I agree. A bit more communication about what's going on with FR would help greatly... :o)
When FR crashes or runs at "dial-up speed", I just give up and go onto something else... it's really been frustrating over the past several months.
I have been told my computer is old so I thought the slowing down was because of that. It’s about 7-8 years old. Can’t afford a new one.
I’ve had problems posting replies, etc. from Yahoo. I don’t seem to have so much trouble on my server, verizon, as I do on Yahoo.
