	Forum been unreliable recently? Suffering from ads?

Just about every time I Poly, I encounter a short service outage about a couple minutes long when the forum pages just won't load. What's going on?

Yep, the forum was unavailable for about 20 minutes...seems ok now though.

A few minutes I don't mind. A few days is cruel and unusual.

wonder if it has anything to do with the fact Settler II only has 512 megs of ram

Yes, it has been sporadic. Fortunately for just short periods.

Just got access to a comp after a few days with no 'Poly, and it was down.

Hehe fortunately a brief outage though.

Yeah, it's really annoying at times... like when you are about to submit a long post... and suddenly... bzzt.

It goes out so often

If you are submitting long posts you should prepare them in a good text editor (like emacs) where you have real editing capabilities and can view the entire post at once. That way you will not lose long posts.

Of course if you use a good browser you don't lose your post anyway.

On the long ones that I don't prep in an editor, I'll copy it to the buffer right before submitting, just in case.

I generally tried to use Rah's method, but it took too much effort. So I went with Spikey's method and installed Opera.

Yep, same trick as Rah here,

The back button often saves you too. Luckely I don't write many long posts

say, what degree of redundancy does Settler II have, if any at all, and who fixes things when it stops working? The little bananas?

Tiring out a computer is usualy hard but Settler II has to keep track of the OT.

As I said in a different thread:
Only solutions that decrease either the length or number of connections will help.

Why did Panag mean that? Does the Poly team need a door jam? I heard the new i-Irrelevant makes a great one...

I know. You don't strike me as a person who supports dying products. I couldn't miss an opportunity to rag a Mac user.
