    This is a great site from I see so far. I love the ticker and the Reliability bar. i only have one suggestion and that's for a welcome forum so that new people like myself can post they are a member and start sending out FR, so the members of the site know who is sending them FR.

    Tris you do a great job with the site but I have to say its so slow that i almost hate coming here and loading pages. Any way to fix this? It seems to be getting worse.

    I check this site from work and home and its slow no matter what. Other sites load just fine.

    loads fine for me, what pages exactly, the forums or pages of the scoreboard?

    Our hosting company is gone south recently , and it seems the site wont come up at all about 4-10 times a day. Nothing i can do about that

    forums page. Sometimes its ok but sometimes it just times out or takes about 2-5min.

    I dont remember it being this bad before but for about the last 6months its been bad I think

    It's more than likely your network at the office Linuxx. I know at my office we have a T1 feeding the LAN and it's wicked slow.

    Most forum sites take forever to load at the office for me.

    Our site was going down at almost a continious rate the last 3 weeks, that i demanded something got down. They have now moved our site to a new server and already i can see the speed difference

    There is only one other skin, but it never was completed. It's a white version that you can get to by scrolling down to the very bottom of the site (on the left) where it says LGv3. You probably won't like the white version though.

    I would love a black/darker version of the site with white text :cool:

    My concern is where the chats might end up :roll:. Have you ever read some of the stuff during the Radio Show chat? A lot of it would violoate the TOS here :mrgreen:

    Unfortunately, that's the way it would work out. You never can stop people from posting certain things.
