Has anyone else been having problems with access to this site for the last month or so? I only seem to be able to get in about once a week on average now.

Never had a problem, i am ADSL so i am nearly always logged in.
you might want to check with your srvice provider, are you having probs with other sites ??

Not really!

Sometimes it can be hard to get into ... I always assumed that was because it's hosted back in Europe?

My Mac is going crazy on certain days......especially on certain threads. I assumed that it was because of the volume of users....

Never had a problem, and I am on here on and off all day.

Hmmm ... you're in Cheshire ... George-Ang is still back in the UK ... anyone else see a pattern to this?

I'm in Australia and only rarely have a problem.

I see it G, its a forieng thing access is harder for you lot over there, if it is a european based server, then it may well be that you have more difficulties logging on.

Dont know if u have noticed CDN but there is an announcement on the forum, i just noticed it, maybe the site is getting a faster more reliable server...

Now you mentioned it, I had a look ... by 7pm MST I'll be sitting in a private box at the Saddledome watching the Hitmen ... the hard life of the unemployed.

I thought you were activly employed in the IT industry ???

Quit one job last week, starting a new job next week ... I have a whole weekend of unemployment to look forward to

LMAO is the IT Industry good over there, i have City and Guilds in PC maintenance Repair and Installation, was studting for my MCP when it was called that, then Microsoft moved the goal posts, i was ready to do my Windows NT Workstation and Server Exams to get qualified, Microsoft announce no further support for Windows NT platform so i gave up, still got my MCSE Books on windows 2K including a nice copy of all the CBT Nuggets cd's. ???

Depends on what your skills are ... an MCP/MCSE isn't going to get employers jumping up and down all by itself ... plus we're up to Windows 2003 now

I had 12 years UK IT experience when I got here ... it initially took me 6 months to get a job ... I've now got 3 years Canadian IT experience and I know people who know people ... so it isn't impossible to move between jobs.

Somehow I get the feeling you'll make more money driving trucks
