United Board Down?
I've been trying to access the United board for the last half-hour or so, and it times out...Is it my browser/server, or is anyone else have this same problem?
Everything for me is moving a little slow right now on FT, but my other website are as fast as normal.

I've been trying on and off all afternoon, without success. The other boards have been slow, but they generally appear--UA keeps timing out. Maybe it's overloaded with posts from one or more UA FTers making up for lost time yesterday?

You can get to the UA threads by looking at today's topics at the opening FT screen.
Just have difficulty posting. I posted to see but was told it didn't post but I see there are posts (maybe mine) during the time I was posting.

I posted the problem with the United board in the Technical Problems forum. Randy's team seems to be quite good about monitoring that board. United is the board that goes down over and over and........ It's because it is the most active board with the most posts. But that means it is the most inconvenient board to have out of action. Pretty frustrating - for the tech team, I'm sure, as well as us.

fallinasleep,
Now that I've met you, I'm surprised to see you write a post that would incite OZ.
I'm the only one here that's allowed to be a troublemaker, not you.

"The wit and humour of fallinasleep" would be about the world's slimmest book methinks.
One way to get into the UA Forum when it looks like it freezes, is outlined in the second post here:

No problem with any other sites on the net.
