If I go into the thread, the time it was posted will be correct. If I click the button again, a bunch of hours old posts will still come up. It's like the site has a glitch of some sort.

Also, earlier today I posted to one of Tania's posts that I couldn't get through to her site (I can now) and my comment didn't show up.

Kind of strange. Has this been happening to anyone else?

There is a slight chance that recent events have made me a bit paranoid, but since this has happened a couple of times today, I thought it should be mentioned.
There was a newscast in the Miami stations about too much cell phone uploads and traffic that is slowing down Wi Fi performance and it will get worse.I sometimes get some delay but not no real shutdowns,but only in the mornings and has happened maybe two or three times in the last month.I am on a wireless laptop,I imagine a lot of folks use thier smartphones instead of Pads and laptops.

Kurt, I was using my home computer, which is on a land line. So the Wi Fi performance shouldn't be a problem for me. My problem wasn't even an access one, like others are describing. It was like the whole site wasn't reloading properly.

There haven't been any problems on my end since that day and the next. It was just really weird.

I thought Mischka might post here but at about 7:30 AM this morning I couldn't get the site to even come up, no error message, etc.

And this isn't new.

Apparently there are a couple of times each day, usually, that the server is lacking in bandwidth and it's worse when folks are uploading pictures and presumably that's the reason, when I asked Mischka about it quite awhile ago. He was going to look into it bu tI know his time is restricted just taking careof the site itself,

As for me, as long as the site does come up, I don't worry about it, I just wait and then read and sometimes post.

And I asked morerecentlywhy all of a suddenI get thee-mails sent home from threads seemto come thundering in at one time and he said that was a function of where I get my e-mails, and for me that's AOL. And again, aslong as they do come, in whatever order, that's fine withme as well.

Everything seems to get "finer" when one becomes a Senior Citizen.
