I have been getting a wide variety of error reports on posts...

[whistle]

...such as this one:

An error occurred during processing.

Also, the system is really slow tonight. Are the administrators still insisting that the site has not been infected or invaded in some way? I find that difficult to accept.

2. yes there are problems and they know it and they are working on it

3. me too, there's a pinned post that says that

it's a server problem, not foul play or CIA.

I'm not so sure.

I'm on roadrunner, and it is taking longer tonight than it used to on dial-up at times.

4. Had those for awhile

Now just generally slow. I have Road Runner, so I'm not sure what's up.

5. Read the message just above all the posts here.

It is from the admins and explains that they know there's a problem, what they've eliminated, and what they think it is.
You have to go to "Latest" and click on the "Server problems" link.

6. Please post in Ask The Administrators. They'll work on it. Thanks! link:
