Just noticed: Are the blogs gone forever?

 

when I purchased the blog software, I didn't realize I had to pony up money every year it to get the updates. So, right now it is unsecure and incompatible w/ this version unless I pay for another upgrade. Now, it wouldn't be so bad if it was utilized, but it never took off as intended (last post of any kind was in October). Perhaps it was a good idea with a poor implementation. We still have the data, but unless someone makes a compelling case to bring it back - I don't see the point in wasting the money.

Nah, it was a good idea, good implementation, but the users failed with not updating their blogs (mine included).

I like everything about this board and appreciate your efforts in making this the best possible forum.

 

There is one thing missing... though.

 

 

I have never asked for anything before.....but could you please... add some dancing Bananas to the emoticon list?

 

Some Examples

 

The dancing banana is the king of all emoticons..... and without it this board/forum will never be complete.

 

Thank you for your consideration.

Is it just coincidence for me(& my computer) or does it take a fair bit longer for each page to load than it did before the upgrade?

Anybody else experiencing slow loading times?

Guilty as charged, your honor. :wallbash:

 

But yes, the blogs were just not utilized enough to warrant them. Most people put their LAMP stuff on 'Off the Wall' anyway.... and that seemed to sort itself out.

the pages are loading fine for me - but I am only 25 miles from the server.

Not just you, load time has been horrible for me since the upgrade. Granted, I still use dial-up, but it is tremendously slower since the upgrade.

what's the matter with you woman?!?

 

I'll look into it... The load times shouldn't really be different.

Linky.

 

I was paying more for dial-up than I do now for DSL. Plus, I cancelled the newspaper and get it online for free.

 

Get with the program, Ann! :wallbash:

the load times on the server are as good, if not better, than before. So, the question is - is it just more data being sent (I don't think so), or is there a problem with your browser and the javascript, etc... I'll look into it.

Well, free is hard to beat, as my internet service is provided at no charge by my employer. :oops:

do they just reimburse you? Why not reimburse you for a faster service?

 

No, I never pay anything. About 10 years ago, they gave me a disk, a password and a phone number and said "Here you go! Free internet service." So obviously, I have no idea what the deal is. :oops:

I'm not sure about slower, but it crashes Mozilla all the time (I don't use Firefox, but suppose maybe I should switch to that....)
