What's Up With This @#$%^&!! Board?!?!
 
What is up with this stupidness?

annesherrod Aug 31st, 2006 05:41 AM

I actually was able to get the screen on the left to show up this morning, ...had major problems last night.
It is frustrating!1 I guess I will actually have to do my job!!! :)

starrsville Aug 31st, 2006 05:44 AM

I'm able to open MAYBE 1 in 15 posts. This is ridiculous.

marleneawe Aug 31st, 2006 06:58 AM

Well I read all the posts here in regards to this topic. Strange as I am on every day and have experience no problems.

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:02 AM

LoL, marleneawe! You have the magic touch!!!

BUT, odds are, your day's coming! :-D

highflyer Aug 31st, 2006 07:06 AM

I could open this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

woohoo

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:09 AM

Highflyer, I sure hope you didn't speak too loudly or too soon! :-D

GoTravel Aug 31st, 2006 07:12 AM

I can open this one also but NONE of the travel threads.

Go figure.

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:18 AM

I got an e-mail from the editors early saying they are aware of the problem - it's on their end - and they're working on it.

They also told me to get back to work and quit goofing off! :))

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:19 AM

yikes - too much caffeine this morning! That would be 'earlier' - not 'early'.

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:21 AM

<i>how do you spell that sound teenagers make when they're jealous and p.o.'d?</i> Is it &quot;unph&quot;? Anyway, insert that sound here!

How come you got a personal response, Travel_Addict? What makes you so special? I have complained about technical problems on several occasions, and they never bother to explain a thing to me! :(

jetset1 Aug 31st, 2006 07:21 AM

apparently, it is a clothing optional issue.. now I need to get a heated pad for this cold leather chair..

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:23 AM

oh, now that was weird, I just posted the two posts above, and went back to the main board and they weren't there, so I clicked on my name and the Knee post was there again, but I couldn't see the posts on the right.

I seriously think the editors are messing with us just for fun! b(

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:25 AM

BayouGal - maybe it's because I e-mailed them 3 times in the last 24 hours. I think they were getting sick of me! LOL!

Jetset... huh??

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:26 AM

The Knee thread is back? Someone top it fast before it goes away again! :-D

Statia Aug 31st, 2006 07:27 AM

How strange. I haven't had any problems today...or yesterday for that matter. Weird.

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:28 AM

Statia, you are just SPECIAL! We all know it, and it's time you come to terms with it, girl! ;-)

GoTravel Aug 31st, 2006 07:28 AM

Where is my knee thread? I thought they killed it!

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:32 AM

I can't find it . . . I think Travel_Addict's personal response from Fodor's has gone to her head and now she's seeing things! LMAO :-D

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:33 AM

It's not there anymore, BG!! I swear I saw it again though, but I couldn't open it. I'm telling ya - they are messing with us today just for their own sick amusement. :))

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:36 AM

WELL, I HOPE THEY ARE HAVING FUN AT OUR EXPENSE!

<i>'cause I sure am having fun at theirs! </i>

jetset1 Aug 31st, 2006 07:40 AM

travel addict~ I was being cheeky.. firm glutes are a terrible thing to waste.

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:41 AM

GoT, what was the title of your thread? I remember &quot;knee&quot; but not the whole title. 'Course, since the search seldom works 8-|, I don't really know why I'm asking.

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:42 AM

cheeky? no pun intended, I'm sure! :))

Statia Aug 31st, 2006 07:43 AM

I guess I am, BayouGirl! ;)

I haven't seen the knee thread, either. However, the knee is still here.

travel_addict Aug 31st, 2006 07:44 AM

BG, it was called Stupid Knee and I just tried looking for it - nothing. :(

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:46 AM

I got this from another thread:

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! :-o

GoTravel Aug 31st, 2006 07:52 AM

Why didn't they kill the stupid knee instead of the stupid knee thread?

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 07:54 AM

<font color="red">IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, FOLKS! </font>

CAPH52 Aug 31st, 2006 07:58 AM

I'm still not convinced that that ad isn't somehow involved in these problems. I noticed that everytime I clicked to try to open a thread, that ad responded but the thread didn't.

seetheworld Aug 31st, 2006 08:00 AM

Just to calm everyone's worry over the &quot;knee&quot; ad, it's been there <i>all summer long</i>!!! I don't believe it could be the cause of the problems, lol.

Time to take a deep breath. :)

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 08:03 AM

No, it's causing the problems, [<i>she says with a noticable head twitch</i>], I've noticed it looking at me, especially since last night. It's definitely taken on an identity all its own.

Betsy Aug 31st, 2006 08:23 AM

No problems here either. Good karma I guess.

pollyvw Aug 31st, 2006 08:27 AM

Try a different browser. I can't open threads with my preferred Netscape, but everything is crystal clear with Firefox.

mikemo Aug 31st, 2006 08:37 AM

No problems here with my central Mexico ISP, etc.

GoTravel Aug 31st, 2006 08:50 AM

What time is it BayouGal?

Please make the knee go away.

I'd rather see the big drooling dog than that stupid knee cone head.

BayouGal Aug 31st, 2006 08:56 AM

Oh, I almost forgot, GoT!

It's time to go over and post a question on the questions never asked thread.

BTW, that GREAT question you asked, &quot;Why didn't they kill the stupid knee instead of the stupid knee thread?&quot; definitely needs to be posted on the question thread! :)

OO Aug 31st, 2006 09:12 AM

Quick...someone call in Tanya Harding.

jetset1 Aug 31st, 2006 09:17 AM

OO, priceless.. come on though, that almost required a Depends and I'm all out,lol...:-d

annesherrod Aug 31st, 2006 09:20 AM

Jetset1 - I know what you mean about the Depends!!!!!! LOL

I am going to go back to work now.... at least for a few minutes!
