Site is getting slower by the day

Not sure whats up, but its really starting to become a hassle. It seems like every day it takes longer and longer to load a page or post a reply. Not sure whats going on, but its getting to the point where its just not worth the effort anymore. It really sucks to post a well thought out lengthy reply only to have my browser time out while trying to post it.

This page is still loading as I am typing this...........

I've made a few substantial posts that got killed by page load timeouts. Faced with the decision of whether to type it all out again or just forget about it, I chose to forget about it.

It has become a habit for me to copy and paste a lengthy post/reply just in case it times out.

Hey Chris, have you already got one in line or are you still looking for one? Dont know what kind your running now, but I have an extra dell workstation. Kinda old but sturdy. Its a dual processor computer but only has one in it right now. I think it is a 2.4ghz with 4 memory slots, it has 512mb in it now but upgradeable to like 8 gig. Its just a spare that just gets used to back up pictures and data from my desktop. I'll have to keep my hard drive though, its not very big anyway. If you can use it or it is better than the current server, I'd donate it to the cause, just have to see how much shipping will be on it. -- Casey

Thanks for the offer Casey, but we have a managed hosting solution with a provider that we go through.
