I can tell it has been bad, just today I had to retype a reply 2 times, it was just as unintelligible the second time, so that didn't improve.
I have started to hit ctrl+A and copying the message just in case it doesn't send when I hit reply.
I was not sure if it was Firefox freaking out on me or what... I even tried Chrome, and it worked. Then I tried Firefox again and it worked, so who knows??

I think I was thinking about the last tech day maybe? Where Clay came down. Where is Andy's place? I'd definitely like to make it down sometime.

Refreshing the page usually works for me also, but I've taken to copying my posts before submitting to save retyping. Seems to happen more often in the early AM.

Like to hit refresh on the NorCal Tech Day BBQ too!

Best to PM Andy after a date is posted. I've been a few times also and love it. Its a little hard to fine on the address, at least for me the first time, But not bad once you talk to Andy. Great bunch of guys, Lots of knowledge there as well.

correct. 2 weeks ago IB switched to a much larger DB server, and it crashed and burned a few days later. we are back on the old server, and they are trying to get the new servers back on line and running PROPERLY before switching back over.

I have also had that same screen pop up, but very inconsistant. Come to think of it, hasn't done it in a week or so.
I'm on iPhone, so it's two fingers apart to zoom. Ctrl>scroll up on a PC will zoom.

i would suggest deleting those pictures before someone sees them and makes a complaint, forcing a moderator to have to do it and then have to "spank" you guys for posting inappropriate images
