FODORS! CAN'T OPEN POSTS!!!!!!!!!!!
Cannot open any posts. This has been going on all day. Only once was I able to pull up a post but no others. Then none at all.

I feels so disconnected!!!

Didn't you get the memo? It's "members only" now -- have you paid your USD$5/day via Visa/MC/PayPal for access rights?

Click your heels three times and maybe the wicked flying geek monkeys will get it fixed soon!: J.

I seem to be okay, if I go into a state and then click on a post. But if I click on a post in the US forum, it doesn't open. Says something like "posts loading to the left". What a bummer.

I still have the "knee" ad and I have not had a problem at all. I am not complaining (well except about the "knee ad") but how strange so many Fodorites have had problems here today. I wonder why some do and some do not?

No problem here AND I don't know what the knee ad is. Do you have pop ups blocked/

I had problems, but not now.

The knee thread is gone, but the knee is still here? That's not RIGHT!

The knee ad is not a pop up ad. It is at the bottom of the screen below the last post..at least that is what I see. I do have a pop up ad blocker on my computer. And for some reason I have not had any problem with the Fodor's website. Strange!!

At this moment, both the knee ad and my posting/opening problems are gone. I'm seeing a GoCard ad, just a blue box with text.

Had some problems yesterday. Find if I use Mozilla browser it works. With IE it doesn't. Then they were both working. Today back to mozilla works but IE doesn't.

Could it be that people at Fodors know we all need to get off the computer, go to work, do some laundry, mow the lawn, etc.

LOL, Gail. I just e-mailed BayouGal saying it was probably a good thing I couldn't see posts - maybe I can get some work done today. Oh, but darn, it's working now...

What happened to the knee post anyhow??

Turns out it was the girlfriend of one of the editor's. He didn't want our thread to draw so much attention to the knee that the wife would find out!

So, it's been deleted!
