    Yep, same here. Been getting locked out for extended periods of time with DB errors.

    The lack of performance on PF is a joke.....but not of the funny variety. :roll:

    Only seems to happen when you've just typed a really good post you spent 30 minutes working on... only to have it either disappear, or show up 5 times when the site finally comes back up.

    It's maddening!!! (and bad this morning!)

    Where is their server located at---'liberal Chicago,' like so many other forums I've been on?

    I think that it a conspiracy against conservatives, myself...i.e. the revenge of Obama's ATTACK WATCH! :omg:

    I can't beat that, Mak.

    Can anyone beat my daily four or five "Database errors" that won't let me get here? This happens a lot.

    Well, another conspiracy theory bites the dust...:mrgreen:


    **Still get booted off/DB errors 3-4 x's/hr and is very frustrating! Think it's time for one of my 'long vacations' and will check back in the future to see if this site is fixed!

    Happy Re-booting everyone.....OD

    One easy way to find out if EVERYONE on this forum was having the same problem as you is to go here http://www.politicalforum.com/current-events/ and see if posts were made during that time. That sub forum is so big that the last post of one thread is not much different to the one above or below it in the list. If there is a big gap it probably means that the forum was down during that time.

    Has anyone mentioned this site yet? http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/http://www.politicalforum.com . Click on that and it will tell you if this site is down or not. Works on any other site as well.

    I've gotten into the habit of copying to the clipboard before I hit submit.

    Well, they'll know where to go...
    When this place is too slow, come to my site.

    What an odd coincidence someone bearing this sig would start this thread...

    There is a coincidence, all, right. ;-) , and it has nothing to do with Trin and another site.
