Server Error

Fair crack of the whip mate what is the poor buggar meant to do?

Your statement quote " To be perfectly frank, unless things improve, I will not be renewing my membership. Shoot me down in flames but what is the point??" end quote

What do you want? Have them sit at the computer 24/7 just to make sure they can accomodate every member who drops their bundle simply because the web site has some issues.!...and what is that going to cost?

Simple mathmatics.... look at the number of paid memberships times the $ fee and it is not exactly a fortune and I am allowing for the advertisers as well..... Subtract from that the non paying members who all contribute to the value and usefullness of the site..but also contribute to the load on the server and I reckon for the price we get bloody good value...and if it drops out on occassions I am sure it bleep es the owners off as much as some users

Some of us consider ourselves fortunate enough to now be able to access the web when many city / town dwellers take for granted what they have had for years. Those of us in the bush take what signal strength and reliability issues we get in our stride...not always happily I might add but accepting of the fact that progress moves very slowly for some of us out there.

We use a satellite dish that causes me no ends of trouble at times. The return time up to space and back for the signal often clashes with secure sites time out security settings (banks often and some on line purchase sites) ....I can spend a few quick minutes successfully or many many "server unavailable" messages later and have no success......... I can either put up with it (which we do) or spit my dummy, tell the bank I wont renew my membership and drive 300km and do my banking the old fashioned way.

Get a life, go and find something esle to occupy yourself if you are going to spit your dummy because you cant remain glued to the damn screen...realisticaly the site is pretty stable and the few times it has issues .....so what!

cheers

Dennis,

I agree with you that this is the ONLY site that I visit that has these issues. While I believe I'll continue my membership, sorry blokes - you're stuck with me, I believe I'm quite within my rights to bring attention to underlying problems with the site. I'm not going to join some conga line and pretend everything is rosy when it obviously is'nt.

Before someone in the conga line decides to attack me, yes I report problems through the correct channels and yes I have a background that entitles me to point out issues.

Challenge, Build a better site??? I don't think you can or could be able to even imagine the time taken to design, build and code a website like this???

If you can build a better site go for it!! I know i wouldn't even get close and believe me i was programming these things when i was 9 years old! Now i build comprehensive excel and databases, plus certificate III in I.T. Support!

Chris,

What drugs are you on? Seriously, you need professional help.

"Now i build comprehensive excel and databases, plus certificate III in I.T. Support!" Go away Little Grasshopper.

Al,

Why the need for insults and "name calling'?

Take your crap elsewhere Jim. Who appointed you Sheriff. Did you bring your conga line with you ?

gees your a wanker al

Richard,

You really do need to improve your vocabulary. It's good to see at least one of the conga line turn up.

you are a fool

good for

the crap happens! i'm over it, whatever dude!!

Thanks guys!

whatever Gramps. i'll still have a beer with you, if you wanna smack in the mouth feel free!

Chris,

Why would I want to smack you in the mouth? It's exactly that sort of thinking and your replies in this and the 'Bogans' thread that prompted my reply for you to seek professional help. I noticed at least one other poster thought the same. Take it or leave it.

ps There are posters on this site that have been in IT longer than you have been alive. It is very presumptuous of you to judge what they do or don't know. Hence my reference to Little Grasshopper.

Hmmmmm.

Is this necessary?

Can't we all discuss things without the verbal violence?

Jim.

Jim,

1. Mind your own business

2. Learn to read and comprehend

What in life has made you so bitter Al?

Most of us on this forum actually post useful stuff to help each other.

That is what this place is all about.

We share and educate each other. With the odd exception.

I wish you well,

Jim.

Jim this coming from you, I am now ROTFLMFAO.

Steve.

Jim,

As do I.


Steve,

Yep.

JIM

your right......... i mean every time i tried to post a reply last night it duplicated my replies but i struggled on.

in fact it was fun in a way, got a laugh from the comments about them.

shees!!......... just get over it Dennis!!!

Jim,

It was just toooooooooooo bad that Melbourne won the League :(

Sam, put the mockers on Brisbane in the final minutes by saying that they had it won, she is now banned from even suggesting it LOL

It should be a good Grand Final in the AFL as well and I will tip Geelong to go back to back ;)

Cheers Kev

seee we all make errors...

neither is mine??
