I'm noticing the media viewer (that thing is pointless in my view, having a straight link to download is faster and easier for readers like me) acting slow.
Also, the forums seem a bit slow.

It's taking ages to post a reply, and when it does, I get a page cannot be displayed. I then I have to go back a few times, and refresh the page to see my post.
Annoying to say the least

Trust me, I'm more pissed off about this than anyone, but at least the site is MOSTLY functioning. And once whomever is responsible GROWS THE HELL UP, we'll be better than ever.

Sometimes, refreshing the page fixes it, but many times refreshing the page just repordoces the blank page and I just have to come back later. I'm using the latest version of IE, and I have Windows XP Pro.

It sounds like it is a problem that is happening locally at your computer. PGC's server can't control your cursor. Is there a mobile phone close to your keyboard or mouse? Do you have a cordless desktop?

The problem only happens on PGC, though- never when I replying to emails or typing in URLs or writing in Word.
In that case, my best guess is that it is some software interfering with your mouse and/or keyboard drivers. I see that PGC has a flash-advertisement up for Banzai. This particular advertisement seems to be causing me some trouble as well on some sites. When visiting IGN my mouse sometimes stops working, but this only happens when the Banzai advertisement is on the screen. If I go to a webpage without this advertisement(using my keyboard only) my mouse suddenly works again.

haha, I have the same thing happen to me. I'm typing in my password and I press enter it tells me to enter a password and I look up and my password in in the middle of my username and I don't type in my username because my computer doe sit for me. Oh well.

"tNeed help, not urgent, not really important"
WHERE DID THAT "T" COME FROM?!
I know it's not really a big deal, but it does not reflect well on my repuatation as the greatest forum-er of all time.

Actually, I think I've only ever started one thread here. . . I'm not much of a thread starter at the other board I go to, either. It just seems that everybody else usually has everything covered.

EDIT: Yeah, missed the small forum update. I was right. How nice.
Post by: RickPowers on July 27, 2003, 01:50:42 PM
In fact, we're leaning towards a network issue at our hosting facility causing the problem, and that's what they're looking into now.

I cant believe how slow this site has become, and how many times I get a server not found message.
And yes, it only happens here.

hey, I just noticed that when you go to the "forum announcment" page it says in big, bold letters...
This section does not contain any topics
...or something of the sort. are you going to do away with that section?
