The HNI forum is the best place in the world for us hunters. I've never learned so much with people I've never met face to face..

The key to this forum...Don't run out because you got mad at someone or some group of clicky people....

I have wanted to run..MANY TIMES....But I've developed myself over the last year..and I've embraced the people that I share common ground with..And I read the posts with an open mind everyday.

Nothing to do with the people, the site itself is having issues with running/loading waaaayyyy slooooooow for about 5 or 6 weeks now!

It's running fine for me most of the time. No more adds, speed is better than it was a few weeks ago.

You mean you don't see all of those ridiculous ads along the sides of almost every post in addition to the ones on top and bottom?

The ads, I understand, are a part of running a site offered "free" to users. The slowness is still here, though. Once they migrate to VB, it should be better I suppose. I'm just leary of what all will be lost during the transition.

I installed Ad Block on Firefox and the adds just magically disappear. seems to be running a bit faster without the adds, but oftentimes i have to click twice on the link before it will start loading.

This is almost verbatim what I posted a week or two ago. Actually, it's still slow as hell, and double clicking is the norm.[:@] Again, very sad. Sorry for the negitivity, but I have to call a spade a spade.

I'm still around T.
I just don't post as much any more. My finger is tired. lol
The ads: Well just look at any magazine. Most of them have over 30% of their content in ads. I understand the ad guys pay my site fee.
The slowness issue: I'm sure it will get fixed, especially ifparticipation drops and the guys paying my site fees start leaving.
All will be well!
