    Posting multiple threads on the same subject is likely a part of the problem, extra unnessecary traffic causing a strain on the servers.

    You are part of the problem Trinity.

    How long are you all gonna tell us you're fixing the problems and it getting worse not better?

    What's up with that?

    This site was locked up for 3-4 hours last night. All evening.
    As soon as the site gets busy, POOF, you can't get in or post if you are in.

    We want solutions, not the same ole BS that you're working on it.

    We want answers too.

    Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. I spend WAY too much time here, but it is strangely addictive. I've set a new goal of getting my posts-per-day average to down below 3 again. All things considered, this really is a waste of time.

    We of a like-mind reinforce each other, but we never make any headway in persuading the opposition of the validity of our viewpoint or the invalidity of theirs. It's a maddening form of "trench warfare", and it's depressing to see how very far apart we have all come to be. I haven't seen anything like this since the height of the Vietnam War....

    I donated to this site multiple times. Sadly, they did not reflect the donations accurately on my gold bar count. I kind of liked it until it did not grow.

    Anyways... there are some real issues here.

    I have a problem with donating more as the moderation staff has allowed some pretty serious trolls to go unchecked. I now watch from the sideline and think it is not worth having the same asshats derail thread after thread with their unsupported crap.

    C'mon mods... admin... you can do better.

    Is that what's wrong?

    We want answers and we deserve them.

    I want to hear from admin on this matter and publicly.

    Understand that we don't blame the mods.

    But you guys PLEASE pressure the owner to deal with this problem.

    People who aren't donors shouldn't (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) like little babies about the speed of the site.

    I laugh when I see the same people in other threads complaining about the "give me something for free" mentality of some liberals.

    How many more threads are you going to start on the same subject?

    Perhaps it's you that is part of the problem.

    For over one year I have seen people complain and promptly stay. A few left for good. Most of the members that are politcal forumists are institutionalized to some degree in that- the change associated with leaving this forum is to strong for some them, it would cause discomfort with their ID's. I have come accept that some people feel the issues are still worth putting up with because the alternative ,"to leave Political Forum" is not any better than putting up with the normal average operation which is basically like the current economic situation facing the nation, lol "Debt crisis"

    Guess they ran out of gold bars.

    Yes, some serious trolls that have gone unchecked...after I was assured that they also were being taken care of. The use of sexual terms in a derogatory manner to other members here. Deplorable!!!!!

    Agreed. Mods are mods are mods. They have nothing to do with the functionality of the site, and they do a good job in general I find of dealing with a site this active, and contentious.

    However the money donated should go to addressing the networking issues.

    Do my part? Where did I ever express that I had a problem with the current state of the board?

    Hypocratic Irony here is Ironic.

    If you have never even donated to the site, then you have no ground to post 10 threads demanding this that and the other. You are being provided a free service, its not owed to you and the owner owes you nothing.

    *cough* trinnity *cough*

    Oh yes I do. I post good threads here, and donate my time. I post quality content.

    You? Not so much.
    You don't contribute, so.....
